Thf Poor M ?.?'a Jtwris. BY MES. DENISON.. iiv homo is a poor one To all who pas? it by; Th ev eannot Ma its beauty; And neither, faith, can I That ia, iu paint or timber, I? doof-way or in roof Dat that it bas ito beauties TR quickly give ye proof. Cowa hither, young onus, hithar. Your father's steps axe near- - That's Best, with hair io yellow; That's Ruo, with eyes so ?lear; That's Will, with tawny trowsora Tucked in his stocking leg; And yonder two wee darlings Are bonny Joan and Mcgg. A ?raster of fair jewels, Tiro in the rugged set; If any man has brighter, -I have to learn it yet. And, Tom, when I am swinging These arms with weary strain. Their blessed faces cheer mc, And make me strong again. Tsometimes sit and wonder "What w?l their future bel" If they must delve and patter A treadmill round like me! And scarcely, at tho year's end, Have half a groat to spare! And see bad men put over them, 'Twill be too hard to bear. Bat then, I think, as nations Bise in the scale of might, Qod puts thc poor man forward, And gi voa bim power and light ; AjSdleatt?iwrTem, will do it - And Christian truth will show That Heaven makes no distinction Between the high and low. 80, thOHgh my home's a poor one, To all who pass it by, And none can see its beauty Save mother, Qod and I, The future may be grander For some great glory won - Home gem set in the ages By e en a poor man's son. B - o -a-t-o-n. "Brick Pomeroy" has been to ] Boston and thus gives his impression ? of the "hub:" Boston is the cradle of Lib! Tho place near -where Mr. Warren fell Rud nutt himself. The place where Wen? dell Phillips, the "silver tongued" (what a gag) orator doth abide. It is the hub of the universe and t he dwelling place of the big organ. Boston thinks she is the largest place in this world or the nert. Boston is a very complacent burg-near by is the home of Boston's pet, the silver? ware stealing Ben. We rather like Boston, for there is no village like unto it from the fiddling of Nero to the Revelation of St. John, N. B. Half way between Providence and Boston-for Boston is a long ways from Providence-as we were riding in a cart, a still small voice, like the j whistle of an engine, broke upon the air. A gentleman in the seat with us uncovered his bald head, and with A smile bade us listen! "What's that?" said we. "The big organ in Boston," said he, with a funeralic wag of his head. "The devil!" said we. "Thou shalt not profane!" said tho spokesman from the hub. "Hast been to Boston?" asked he of the silver-tongue. "We hast notiat," replied we, then there to him. He looked-"poor heathen!" He said we must visit the Cradle of Liberty. We asked him if Fred. Douglass and Anna Dickinson had engaged that cradle yet? He didn't see it. He said we must visit Fanuell Hall. Wo asked him what nigger troupe was performing there now? He looked bewildered. Then ho said we must see where Warren fell. We asked him if Warren ever got over it-the place where lie fell. He appeared demoralized. He said we must hear the big organ before we left Boston. We went to hear the big orgau. It is held in several buildings. It. is one size larger than Boston. Boston is the hub around which the organ revolves. The organ is a revolver. Like the organ, this is a big play on words. People in New York and Buffalo hear the moan of the sea. The moan is the big organ. It is used in Mass! It has a sort of h>wj island sound! Boston people go to Heaven through the big organ. That is when the nigger is out so they cannot go through him. There are but few gambling houses in Boston. No such fellows are 11 rou nd that hub. They don't play "straits" in Bos? ton. Not in the streets. Harvard College is just beyond reach of the big organ. Cambridge University is always in session. It is a law school. Tho ?leading is done at the bar of tho 'arker House. The studies at Cambridge are said to be very dry. Tho studies affect the pupils. Pleading at the bar affects them likewise-or more liku than wise. No ono ever gets lost in Boston. The ~ity is so well organized. Like the big organ, Boston has numerous stops! Some of tho streets are near? ly as long as a fish-pole. But not so long as Polk's message. If a man don't like one street in Boston, it is easy to get on another one. After four days' trial wo could go from the Parker House to the City Hall without getting lost! This is a fact! And in fivo days we learned the route from Scollay's Building to Engine House No. 4. The business blocks in Boston aro in shape like Norwegian shoes. The s tree Ls tu ju??ioii ?T? like liop poles struck b%lightmng. Some of them are so wide timt a cow could 1>e milked in thom by turning her on her baok and sitting astride her bris? ket. Small horses aro driven abreast large horses tandem-iu^ Boston. The fat woman was exhibited there once-in the big organ. Boston streets are not as crooked as they might be. The sun bas warped thorn straight. Tory clean in Boston. If a lady drops a pin from her clothes policeman makes her pick it up. If a mau shoots an apple need out of a grocery he is fined. Boston is very neat-especially near the big organ and Cradle of Liberty. If a man drops a remark ho is made to pick it up. And Boston people aro so1 modest. They underrate themselves terribly. The streets of Boston must have been'thrown in at the time of some big fire. They are so regular. If you would find any place, start in nu opposito direction- If you see a policeman coming toward you he is goiug the other way. If ho rnns j from you he'll be where you are in no ?time. Up hill is down, and "over! j there" is "back here." One day wc started from the offieo j of thc Boston Post to the Boston ! Post Office, seventy feet distant, j We walked straight ahead-went : around seven blocks, saw a policeman standing in a doorway on euch block-asked each one the route to tho post office. Saw the eighth po? liceman-asked him politely. Said he: "Look here, this is the eighth time you've asked mo that question move on, or up you go." Thought the policemen must be brothers-they looked so much alike! Rather than to go arouud the block again we went 'tother way, began to uuwiud, and got into tho post office by mistake. The front of thc build? ing is inside-iu the courts. ! Except thc big organ and thc j cradle! Ben. Butler spoke wbile we were there on the restoration policy. Wcut to this meeting expecting to see him giving back silverware and other valuables. Was mistaken. That kimi of restoration was not policy. House rents are cheap in Boston. Moving is cheaper than house rent. It's all owing to the hub-the big organ and thc cradle. There is no drinking in Boston, j No peculiar female characters. What is common is not peculiar. New Bedford is to be moved into Boston soon. By legislative enact? ment tho mumps are to be confined to Democrats, thc cholera is to trouble on\y foreigners; the chicken pox is to be confined to old hens; niggers are to have straight hair to disgrace them, and the whites are t<? ? have curly wool on their cranium.'; to ] make them popular hi Bostou. Not i forgetting the big orguu and the | eradlo of liberty! New York is in the watch fob, the South is in tho breeches pocket, and the West buttons on tho toil of the coat of Boston. The sun rises iu Boston-the final conflagration of mundane things will begin in Bostou, on account of the big organ and the cradle. Boston ' would have been laid out more regu? larly if the dogs of olden times hud been pointers or tho cows had walked in more direct paths. Therefore we see many calves in Boston. So much for tilting hoops, j A good place to move from if '? j moves early. j From the eradle to the big organ. ! Crookedly, * BRICK POMEROY. - SHOCKING.-Mrs. Anna Cora ! Ritchie, in a letter dated London, j Juno 15, writes: I Biche au Hoist, which drew such crowds to wonder over the scarcely draped nature of beautiful womanhood, has been surpassed by :i novel production at tho Theatre di; Chalet, entitled Cendriliion, It is said that this fairy piece far exceeds in richness, originality and boldness of execution, everything previously produced on the French stage. The I magnificent ballet consists ol' sixty j danseuses, modestly dressed in rock ! crystal. Of course, the Americans ; who throng Puris will rush to soe Cendrillion, as they did to behold Ln Biche au Bois, and probably ninny of them will say, sus a propriety loving I friend of onrs did of the latter, *Na i turally, 1 could not miss seeing any i thing so wonderfully beautifully-it i didn't harm me-3*et I couldn't run I scientiously recommend any one else j to go; the whole affair, you see, is j undressed, and I was shocked!' For j which reason every one who hoard j the speech made n point of going -to j be shocked!" FIRE & BURGLAR PROOF SAFES. rpiIK undersigned nave been appointed I agents for those superior SAFES. These S^fes aro made with three flanee? all other safes have but two. They have Powder Proof bocks, and tho locks and bolts aro protected with plates of hardened steel, which is the only protection against tlie burglars'drill and the insertion of pow? der. Also, warranted free from dampness. While these Sales have no superior in j quality, they are furnished ut moderate j prices-at least 2.") to 'S-i\ per cent, less than Herring's and other makers, while the , quality cannot bc surpassed. A sample Safe can bo seen at our -store, I and orders will be taken at New York i prices, with expenses of transportation i added, and no charge for forwarding in j Charleston. J. .V T. lt. AGNEW. ! June 29 I Old Newspapers for Sale, BY the hundred or thousand, at March 2 PIKEN EX OFFICE. Freight Rates via Charleston, 8. 0. SOUTH CAROLINA RAILROAD, CHARLESTON, S. C., Juno 23, 1866. ri TH E attention ol' shipjxira of Mcrchau JL diz? and Produce is invited to the Tariff below. It is believed to be, and is intend- i ed to be, at least aa low as that of any route i to tho sea. And ao far aa it is in the power of the South Carolina Railroad to accom? plish it, the old patrons of the Charleston route ar?> assured of rates always as favor? able as may bo offered elsewhere. An extraordinary impression is under- ! stood to have existed, aud to some extent may yet exist, that an unwillingness lo unite in the formation of a low Through Freight Tariff to points of completion on the Charlotte Railroad has been exhibited by tho South Carolina Railroad Company: in fact, that propositions to that emt had been made and refused by it. lt is proper here to state, distinctly and emphatically, that such impressions are utterly without ! foundation. Thc policy of tho Company j is now, as it always bas been, never th allow a lower rate at a competing point; and its practice is, as it has always been, to allow tlic road nearest the competing point to make the rate necessary to give its patrons all the advantages promised elsewhere. In conformity with this prac? tico, tho Charlotte and South Carolina Railroad bas been, and now is, fully autho? rized to establish any rato to thc sea at Charleston it sees lit, and the South Caro? lina Railroad will accept its proposition of such rates. Tuc notice of shippers is further askedT to tho re-establishment of the Company's Receiving and Forwarding O IB ce. whereby freights to and from thc. sea are received and promptly forwarded free of commis? sion.
