"I saw she was going off into hys? terics, so I called her mother and left; ! for it's no use a man's fussing about at them times; you can't do any good, and get in the way a good deal "Next day, she came down to mo- | flier's. V 'Ben,' says she, 'here's the pound I owe you; it's the first I've save . out j of the shirts. Tbe cerate's been very good to me, and so bas bis wife. She always shakes hands with me; and one day I was crying when she came, for baby was so ill, and sbe kissed me, Ben, on the forehead, and said, 'Poor child.' I feel just like as if she was my mother, Ben, she's been .so good to me.' "I took the pound and gave berthe I paper, and I didn't see any more of j her for some week or so. "One day, T bad a letter from the owner's wife, asking me if she could do anything for Sands' relations; for the boy, you see, bad told her about Sands. So I went down to Esther and showed her the letter, and asked ber what I should say. " 'Did the young gentleman see much of him, Ben?' " 'Of course,' says I, 'wasthere all the time-took his turn of lighting the lamps when Sands was bad.' " 'Was Sands his real name-not Fitzjames?' " 'Yes, Sands.' " 'I should like, Ben, to go and live with the lady, so as to be near this young gentleman who's seen so much of him.' "You see, she might have lived with me, only I couldn't say that, and she didn't seem to think of it. " 'I don't know that she'd hkethat either. If you'd been his wife, you see, it would have been different. ' * ' 'But he did mean that I should be, didn't he, Ben?' " 'That's true, but then you're not; but still I'll write and ask her. ' " 'And you'll try and get me to go, Ben?' "'Esther,' says I, 'I'd lay down my hie to serve you any time, and I promised Sands I'd do anything I could for you, with this hand iu both his.' i "She took my band into both lier's and kissed it hard, but I could see it was 'cause it had touched his. She'd a kissed anything that had'jtouched him, she would;, and though she was kissing my hand, I couldn't have told her I loved her then, anyhow; I should nave Choked if I'd triad.

ERS, advise yon of thc fact that Charleston is again a market for the pur? chase of goods; and in new of the early opening of tho Spring Trade, we beg to solicit the resumption of the patronage so hbcrally extended to this market in the past. Wc are aware that many old and respected finns will be missod from our number, but many familiar names will he found in new associations, ready to supply the wants of the trade as of yore, and other old and new firms will be added to our number at an early day. The cash and short credit system having been universally adopted in all tho North? ern markets, w? are necessarily compelled to adopt a like Bystem as the only sate one on which to conduct business," and the heavy per centagc once necessary to cover bad debts will now bc avoided. Small pro? fits and quick returns will be the rule, and under its working we hope not only to restore to our ancient city its former pros? perity, but to extend her" trade to the full extent of thc capabilities her excellent geographical position and natural advan? tages afford. Our interest and ambition combine to stimulate us in attaining this result. The South Carolina Railroad is now open to Columbia, and its President has officially informed us that thc Augusta line will be completed to Blackville this month, and that on the first of February he will roceive throngh freight to Augusta. A lino ol steamers to Savannah will afford facilities for shipping in that direction. It is our purpose to have in store, by the last ol February, a complete and varied assort? ment of goods in our respective lines adapted to the Spring Trade, and every exertion shall be made to promote your interests. We extend to yon the hand of commer? cial fellowship, and solicit your co-opera? tion and patronage in our efforts to make Charleston the centre of Southern trade. Give us tho encouragement we ask. and you will enjoy all the advantage* of a chea]: nome market. Dry Goods. W. T. Burge A Co. Edwin Bates fe Co. J. R. Read & Co. Strauss, Vance * Co.
