i .j.UMIIIMIMII-n.na Thc Koot-atep? or Decay. The following is a translation from an anaM? Spanish poem, which, says tho Ed in OUTR lievu'in, is surpassed by nothing with which wc aro acquainted in tiie Spa? nish language, except tho "Ode of Louis De Leon:" Oh, let tko soul its slumbers break Arouse its senses, and awake To see how soon Life, in it? glories, glidos away, And tho stern foot-steps of decay Como stealing on. And whilo wo view the rolling tide, Down which our flowing minutes glide Away so fast, Let us tho present hour emp" >y. And deem each future dream a joy Already past. Let no vain hope deceivo the mind, No happier let us hopo to find. To-morrow tuan to-day; Our golden dreams of yore were bright - Like thom thc present* shall delight, Like them decay. Our lives like hastening stream* must be, That into ono engulpbing sea Are doomed to fall The sea of death, whoso waves roll on O'er king and kingdom, crown and throne, And swallow all. Alike the river's lordly tide, Alike the bumble rivulet's glide. To tb at sad wave. Death levels poverty and pride, And rich and poor sleep side by sido, Within the grave. Our birth is but tho starting place, Life is tho runner of the race, And death the goal; There all our glittering toys are brought - That path alone, of all unsought, Is found of all. See, then, how poor and little worth Are all thoso glittering toys of earth That biro us here. Dreams of a sloop that death must break; Alasl before it bids us wake, Wo disappear. Long ere tho danipof earth can blight The cheek's pure glow of red and white Has passed away; Youth smiled, and all was heavenly fair; Age came, and laid bis finger there, And where are they? Where is the strength that spurned decay, The steps that roved so light and gay, The heart's blithe tone? The strength is gono, tho step is ?low, And joy grows wearisome, and woe! When age comes on. "Pulpit Pungcnclet." A book, with thia title, has just been issued by a publishing house in New York. Thero is a great ?leal of chaff in it, but we think there aro a few grains ol souse among the fol? lowing extracts: SUNDAY CHRISTIANS.-Hero is a man who goes to the judgnieut and claims to have been a mau of unex? ceptionable piety. He bears wituess that he never violated the Sabbath day; that Le never spoke loud or laughed on Sunday; that he never did any secular work ou Sunday; that he never blacked his boots, or shaved, or cooked ou Sunday; that believer rode in the cars or on the boats ou Sunday. He was always very scrupulous about what he did on Sunday. On any other tiny lie would not hesitate to take advantage of his fellow-uieu ; ho would not hesitate to gouge the poor woman that put his carpet down; he would not hesitate to cheat his custtiers; ljnt, then, he kept Sunday. CHAFF FARMERS.-Here is a niau who is sowing what appears to be black ashes. A friend accosts him, saying: "What have you got in your bag?" He learns that it is the hulls of buckwheat-the chaff of old wheat; and lie says: "What are you sowing chaff for?" "Why," the man replies, "I have the impression that, if a man is only faithful and sincere, it makes no difference Avhat he sows?" Doesn't it make a differ? ence? Suppose a mau should sow couch grass, thinking that he was going to get Timothy hay? Would he? Suppose a man should set ont crab apple trees in his orchard, and think he was going to get fall pippius? Would he? Suppose a mun should sow that most detestable of all detest? able seeds, the Canada thistle, and say that it was wheat, would any ' amount of botanical sincerity on the part of this fool securo to him it harvest of anything bettor than the seed sown? Pxot;s FiiTMitERY.-What a coarse book this Bible is. It hasuever been to school to get relined, so we have to tako it just ns wo lind it. These are plain words: "If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, ho is a liar. For he thatloveth not his brother, whom he hath seen, how can ho love God, whom he hath not. seen?" Show mo a mau that is proud and over-reaching, who professes to be pious, and I will tell you that his piety is all flummery. Thero is not a bit of piety in such a man. SAXON AN? LATIN.-Oki Saxon words aro Day of Judgment words; they aro like douhle-edgeil swords, and cut where they hit. But when we como to speak of evil, we must havo Latin, or some soft language. I think it will take two or three lan? guages for us to get along with soon. DRY CARDS.-Dry cards are very dry, indeed. Drinking and playing are so nearly connected, that they court each other as almost intimate relations and inevitable friends. A CATECHISM GOD.-How is it that we think of God in connection with catechism, and dumb book, and dumb house, but do not think of lum in connection with the living voices of nature? CHRIST'? INSURANCE.-Ami when respectable men, members of the church in tho nineteenth century, look out of tho window and see Christ walking up and down, protect? ing their interests, making out bills of insurance for them, how do they say, "Hail, Master!" HOLY WRATH.-Any notion of God that takes away this wide-swingiug and far-resounding thunder of indig? nation, loaras Him emaculate, feeble, unfit fornBfven, and unfit for earth. COLD DRINKS IN HOT WEATHER.- - Many people come to sudden deaths by using cold driuks in hot weather. An exchango says: So long as they can take a cold drink, a majority of tho people caro very little what they drink; although physicians and sensi? ble people are aware that many peo? ple are annually killed by too fre? quent or injudicious uso of cooling beverages during the heated term. For the benefit of our readers, we recently applied to an eminent physi? cian for an opinion on tho subject, and a prescription that would most readily meet tho requirements of thirsty people during tho warm wea? ther. Ginger, said the doctor, I consi? der tho very best article, most easily procured aud least expensive for all persons to employ. By its proper use, they may have cold water in abundance, and, at the same time, avoid most if not all tho ill effects produced by tho cooling abomina? tions a great many people pour down their throats this hot weather. Tell your readers, continued the physi? cian, to buy a few ounces of pow? dered ginger, and every time they are thirsty, let them mix half-a-tea spoonful in the cold water they de? sire to drink. If a spoonful of sugar or molasses is added, it will do no harm. Extract of ginger may also be employed by those who prefer the article in a fluid form. A bottle of the extract should be placed near the pitcher or cooler, and, when people drink, let them pour a tea-spoonful of the extract in their tumbler, before filling it with water. For my use, said the doctor, I prefer the pow? dered article, because I believe it acts more beneficially. In the West In? ilies, this root is considered one of the best preventives for the summer complaints of thc tropics, when it is properly used. SOMETHING TO WEAH.-The Port? land (Maine ) Argus, says tho wife of Dr. Moore, a physician of Saco, Maine, has been detected in taking articles from stores without paying for them, and on a search ol' their house it is stated that some thon j sand dollars' worth of dresses, iib- 1 bons, lace, thread and other aiiiclus | were diseovered, which were supposed to have been stolen, though the marks had been removed so that but few things could be positively identi? fied. Dr. Moore had served in tim war as assistant surgeon of a negro regiment. Mr. Martin, of Jackson County, a member of the Tennessee Legislature, who was imprisoned by resolution of tho House, and whose manly defence beforo that body, we published some days since, has instituted a suit against the radical members of the House for false imprisonment,-laving damages at SlOO.OU?. We hope ho may get it. Paris at the present moment re? sembles an immense caravanserai of tho whole world, owing to the great number of strangers from Germany and Italy, that have flocked thither in search of that peace and trauquility which they are denied in their own countries. ANOTHER CHOLERA PREVENTIVE. A St. Louis correspondent states that "No one will be attacked by cholera who wears sulphur in his socks. Half a tea-spoonful in'each is sufficient." He adds: ''The fumes of sulphur, too, (sulphuric acid gas,) are a power? ful disinfectant." The monument which Barnum is building in the cemetery ut Fairfield, Conn., will weigh about sixty-five tons, and a wag suggests that when thc great showman get under it, ho will bu permanently located. When Themistocles went to An? dros, to demand a loan of money, he said: "I bring two gods with me, Force and 1'ersuasion." He was answered, "We have two stronger, Want and Impossibility." A large reward is to bo given by a Jewish merchant of Breslau, to tho first Israelite who is promoted to Hie j rank of officer, for his courage.

A brief history of this remarkable medi? cine will not be out of place here. Its pro? perties as a remedy were first introduced to the notice of the profession by Dr. Thus. Young Simons, of South Carolina, as early as 1328, as a valuable alterative remedy in syphilitic affections, and others requiring tho use of mercury. Dr. Simons' state? ments have been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. Ft. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt Uie efficacy of this medicine in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com? plaints benefited by alterative medicines.

Freight Rat** via Charleston, S. C. &?m SIM? SOUTH CAROLINA RAILROAD, CRABLESTOK, s. C., June 28, 1860. fTVHE attention of skippers of Merchan ? dize and Produce is invited to the Tariff uolow. It is believed to bc. and is intend? ed to be, at least as low as that of any route to tho sea. And so far as it is in the power of the South Carolina Railroad to accom? plish it, thc old patrons of tho Charleston routo aro assured of ratos always as favor? able as may be offered elsewhere. An extraordinary impression is under? stood to have existed, and to some extent may yot exist, that an unwillingness to unite in tho formation of a low Through Freight Tariff to points of completion on thc Charlotte Railroad has boen exhibited by the South Carolina*Railroad Company; in fact, that propositions to that end had been made and refused by it. It is proper herc to state, distinctly and emphatically, that such impressions aro utterly without fotmdation. Thc" policy of the Company is now, as it always has been, never t? allow a lower rate" at a competing point; and it i practico is, as it has always been, lo allow the road nearest thc competing point to make the rate necessary to give tts patrons all the advantages promised elsewhere. Tn conformity with this prac? tice, tho Charlotte and" South Carolina Railroad has been, and now is, fully autho? rized to establish any rate to the sea at Charleston it sees fit, and the South Caro? lina Railroad will accept its proposition of such rates. The notice of shippers is further asked to the re-establishment of the Company's Receiving and Forwarding Oflice, whereby freights to and from the sea are received and promptly forwarded free of commis? sion.
