iSbi:ifiicjiE3iJi_?-??i^rY A Grand Old Poem. Who ?hall judge a mr.n from manners? Who ?hall know him by his drew? Paopers may bo fit for princes, Princes fit for nothing lose. Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket May beclothe the golden ore Of the dcopest thought and feeling - Satin vests could do no more. There arc spjinRs of crystal nectar . Ever welling out of stone: There aro purple buds and golden. Hidden, crushed and overgrown. God who counts by souls, not dresses, Loves and prospers you and me, AVhilc he values throues the highest But as pebbles in thc sea. Man; npraiscd above his fellow.-, Oft forgets his fellows then: Masters, rulers, lords, remember That your meanest hinds are nv a: Men by labor, men by feeling. Mon by thought, and men by fame, Claiming equal rights to sunshine. In a man s ennobling name. There are foam-embroidered oceans. There are little wccd-clad rills; There aro feeble, inch-high saplings, There arc cedars on the hills. God, who counts by souls, not stati Loves lind prospers you and mc; For to him all vain distinctions Are as pebbles in the sea. Toiling hands alone are builders Of a nation's wealth or fame; Titled laziness is pensioned, Fed and fattened on the same; By the sweat of other's foreheads, Living only to rejoice; While tho poor man's outraged freedom Vainly lilted up his voice. Truth and justice arc eternal, Born with loveliness and light, Secret wrongs shall never prosper While there is a sunny right; (?od, whoso world-heard voice is singing Boundless love to you and me. Sinks oppression with its tith s. As the pebbles in 1 he sea. A GOOP HOAX PLATED UPON A COU? P?E op. NORTH CAROLINIANS BY A NE GEO OF MEMPHIS.-Two of thc most respectable citizens of Wilming ton N. C., Avcrcterribly hoaxed about n, week since, by a negro of Memphis. He represented himself to the gen? tlemen as having formerly lived near Memphis, and that previous to tho ?war he had been tho confidential slave of his master. He also stated that when the Union army ad? vanced on Memphis, his master, with his assistance, had buried ? 45,OOO in gold; that he escaped North, and soon afterward Iiis master was killed, and none kucw the place of the de? posit of tho treasure but himself. He applied in vain to several parties, but at last succeeded in getting two of Wilmington's most prominent citi? zens to come with him to the city, promising to remunerate them with the treasure. They accordingly start? ed for this point with the negro, who eat and drank of the best; in fact, lived like a lord by the way, and; arriving here, went in the night with the negro to dig for the treasure in Elmwood Cemetery. While they were digging, the negro made some creuse to get away from them, and then, making a sudden bolt, left them with their spades and shovels to get away the best way they could. The operation cost the parties about $300. HILLED BY AN JEKOLITE.-A Taris correspondent writes: About a month ago, a Scotch Po? liceman mysteriously disappeared, but has since been found drowned in Dunsapple Loch, with no trace of violence on him, beyond a slight dis? coloration of the forehead. It is not supposed that anybody would be likely to murder him,"and there is no probability that he committed sui? cide. Mr. Munson writes to suggest that as the poor man's disappearance was on the night of the falling stars, he Avas very probably struck by one of them and knocked into the lake. "It is but a few years since,"' Mr. Munson continues, "that a brother and sister were driving in an open carriage in Tuscany, and the former of the two was suddenly half stunned by a blow on the hoad from a small ?orolite, which was picked up immediately after the accident. Tho occurrence was noto? rious at the time, and the injured in? dividual trustworthy and well-known. A second instance ol' the fall of un torolite occurred lately in the gardens of an intimate friend of my own, at Florence, on which occasion some of the inmates lind a narrow escape from being struck. The missile was exa? mined by ns, and its sp?cifie gravity exceeded that of a bullet." ?Some people are as careful of their troubles as mothers are of their babes; they cuddle them, and rock them, and hug them, and cry over them, and fly into a passion with you if you try to take them away from them; they want you to fret with them, and to help them to believe they have been worse treated than anybody else. If they could, they would have a picture of their grief in a gold frame hung over the mantle shelf for every? body to look ar. And their grief makes them ordinarily selfish-they think more of their dear little grief in the basket and in tho cradle than j they do of all the world besides; and they say you are hard-hearted if you ! say "don't fret." "Ah! you don't understand me -you don't know me -you can't enter into my trials." Alexander Dumas, jr., was recently asked, "How happens it you no longer go into company?" "Jlecause I saw company made me more stupid, and I did not mako company more sprightly." Why is Turkey called the Sublime Porte? Because it is only one step thence to tho ridiculous. No matter -any port in a storm. Charleston Advertisements. Notice ia Persons Kmigratiag to Florida. The Steamer Dictator, Capt. T>. M. COXETTEK.
