Offer one of th?m good wagos to work fpr you, and ten chances to one if ti e old woman can spare any of her girls; but just pro? pose matrimony, and see if they don't ump at tho ohance of working a life? line for their victuals aud clothes. The Chinese moralist who said, "speak of men's virtnes as if they were your own, and of their vices as if you were liable to their punish? ment," was right. In short, he meant to say, "mind your own busi? ness." Bats oannot live in Alaska, because their holes freeze up; nor in St. Thomas, becauso their holes are turned wrong side out by earth? quakes. "Can she cook?" is now the inquiry among the marriageable young men South. They learned the importance of that art in the army. Probably the reasou why the way of the transgressor is bard, is that it is so much traveled. COPELAND & BEARDEN. 50 BAGS Extra FAMILY t FLOUR, 10,000 lbs.
