The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, March 16, 1866, Image 4
Precept? for Yerang; Men-By an Oe
togenarUn.
On the score of age, I have no
modesty at all, and I do not scruple
to acknowledge that I was eighty
?rears old, on the 29th of February
ast. Of course, I am slightly deaf,
and my sight is a little dim, my walk
is feeble, and my grand-children joke
me because I cannot hear the prattle
of their lisping tongnes. But my
tongue is still free enough, and, al?
though four-score years have made
me forget all who have wronged and
injured me, I have a perfect memory
still for every kind word, e^ry gene?
rous act, every happy moment, which
has thrown joy upon my life.
It would be useless for me to speak
of the old Revolution, the war of
1812. or the fiery enthusiasm of the
war with Mexico, for have we not in
our memories the pains and sorrows
of a later and more terrible struggle,
ended now in disappointment, hu?
miliation and defeat ? Old times are
sadfy altered, and, in speech and
dress and manner, there have been so
many changes that my head fairly
turns as I endeavor to record them ;
but whether in pig-tails and furbe?
lows, or broadcloth and braided
tresses, human nature is pretty much
the same. When I was young, train?
ing and hard work were indispensable
to success, but now, we are all born
presidents, generals, poets and states?
men. The young men of the day are
wise in their generation; they have
exhausted the well of knowledge, and,
if you will but believe them, you will
come to the conclusion that, if there
is one thing which they do under?
stand, it is the nature, habits and in?
stincts nf woman. Ah ! me, the world
was not so wise in my young days,
and women, then, were always loved,
honored and respected. The young
men say they lore them now; but how
about the respect and honor, my chil?
dren ? One stripling, with the faint
down of adolescence yet upon his
Ups, says that he has studied the
" ladies "-save the mark ' He may
have done this, for, my wc rd for it,
he has not studied anything else.
Jeering, joking and sarcasm will not
do, if we wish to see this dear old State
again the mother of warriors and
statesmen. Think of George Wash?
ington, Monroe, Jefferson or Madi?
son, at fifteen years of age, smoking
short pipes, talking ribald nonsense,
making morning calls, leaving ena?
melled cards with the grinning ser?
vant, swinging tiny canes, and sigh?
ing for the ladies ! Why, the mothers
of the venerable dead would have
birched them soundly, if they had
dared to think of such a thing ; but
then those noble mothers were not so
wise as the mothers and sons of this
progressive sjge.
Of one thing I am certain, and that
is, that a man's true character can be
always truly ai vi u eu
in which he behaves when in the so?
ciety of gentle, loving women. Those
who are boys now will become fathers,
and perhaps grand-fathers, if they
don't kill themselves prematurely by
smoking bad cigars, or die of inani?
tion; and it is one of my last desires
to see these young men appreciate the
high and noble work that lies before
them. Let them think of what Vir?
ginia hos been, and that tliey are the
Virginians who, in the future, must
make her a nome among nations, or
else a by-word and a reproach. If
they will but give up affectation, and
remember that their mothers and sis?
ters are women, ^ there is still more
hope left. I want to see the boys all
happily married, and, if they will allow
me, and not laugh at the old-timey
ways of the old man, I will teach
them the way to matrimony in a few
short and easy lessons.
PRECEPT 1.-In all that you say and
do concerning ladies, be honest and
sincere! They can tell the ring of
truth? and they like it better than the
ring of gold, to which it usually leads.
Never mind about smooth words and
rounded periods; only be sincere, and
you are sure of respect and friendship,
if you cannot always obtain love.
PRECEPT 2.-Do not make a lady
contemptible in her own eyes by over?
whelming her with flattery and pane?
gyric. Too much honey will kill the
stoutest fly, and confidence and re?
gard, which flourish best in adversity,
are easily killed by an excess of sweet
talk. A woman of sense knows her
own value, and you can best show
that you appreciate the purity of her
mind and the brightness of her intel?
lect by being pure and bright your?
self. A compliment implied is far
more forcible than one expressed ; and
if you wish to flatter a lady, let it be
by actions rather than by words.
I cannot get accustomed to this
new-fangled kerosine, or petroline, or
whatever it is; perhaps because my
sense of the unpleasant is keener than
that of the men of 1866; and now,
the lightwood burning cheerily in the
wide old chimney, or else, mavbe,
the memory of that dear wife, that
true helpmeet, over whose last rest?
ing-place the violets bloom, has filled
these eyes with tears. At this mo?
ment I can write no more. I do not
say farewell, but only a kind Rood
night.
A jealous husband being absent j
from home, went to a clairvoyant in
London to know what his wife was
doing. "Ah," cried the clairvoyant,
"I see her; she expects some one; the
door opens; he comes; she caresses
him fondly; he lays his head on her
lap, and,"-husband mad with rage
"he wags his tail. " lt was the dog.
The husband was calmed.
AN UNRULY ELEPHANT.-Some
months ago we noticed a ramble
taken by the celebrated elephant
Borneo, attached to Forepaugh's
Circus and Managerie, through the
npper part of this city, during which
that huge animal was very successful
in piling up for his owner quite an
extensive bill, in the way of demol?
ished buildings, broken cars, and
disconnected fences. At that time
Borneo enjoyed almost a clear field of
operations for, several miles, and his
march was unimpeded except by an
occasional tree that came in his path,
and these were snapped from their
roots like? pipe stems. There was
nothing to prevent the beast from
having his spree fairly out, which he
did in a much shorter time than
would have pacified him in confined
quarters. Then his keeper, fcMowing
close after a riue shot, led Borneo
tamely from the field. Another fit
of madness has taken possession of
him within the last few days, which
bids fair to give more trouble tliau
the one above referred to. After a
peaceable residence of many weeks
at Tenth and Callowhill streets,
Borneo has for several days past
j given decided signs of his displea?
sure. Last Sunday night he became
very restless, and his quiet little com?
panion Juliet was made the victim of
his ill-temper. Poor, unoffending
"Julie" was taken up in his trunk,
and in the shortest time possible east
through a solid partition several
inches thick, and was gathered up in
the horse-stable. The noise awoke
all persons about the establishment,
and his keeper, Mr. Craven, as well
tu^ all the other employees, number?
ing over 150 persons, were summoned
to~the mad scene. Means were at
once taken to secure,?the infuriated
Borneo. Boars, puffs, and other war?
like demonstrations witn his trunk
gave matters a troublesome appear?
ance. His keeper appeared before
him. but Borneo knew him not the
elephant was unapproachable. Pikes
and other weapons were brought into
use by thc small army that besieged
him, and in the conflict a goad in the
hands of tho keeper was fastened in
the elephant's ear, which is one of
the quickest correctives in ordinary
times. Nothing could be done by
exercising moderate violence, and
several rifle shots were fired into him,
some taking effect in the lower part
of the head and trunk, while one
pierced the right eye, which, it is
feared, is destroyed. This harsh
treatment partly stunned the mam?
moth beast, and the use cf ropes and
grapples soon put him in a position
which permitted his being made fast.
Heavy chains were wound about his
feet, so that he was totally helpless,
and these connected with a bar firmly
imbedded in substantial mason-work
several feet deep, placed the ungal?
lant Horneo beyond doing furthei
damage. The animal is by no means
jot? auUCluctl, iiui . nlll liu V. ?.^.tll 1?<
is either starved, or until other very
extreme measures are taken to briiif
him into proper obedience.
