"NIghl ileliU atLnut to Dnwn." Night viol?t afc last to dawn We may not always grieve; Though when the clouds be gone, Their shadows still they leave. The memory of the hour Which brought the soul's worst pain, Hath still a mournful power - Upon tho t roubled brain. The peace that follows slow Is poaco within the shade Sweet, but without the glow That once onr rapture made. A twilight of the heart Not dark nor partly bright; . We see tho day depart, Bat tee! lt is not night. Somo rosy tints that gloam Upon the placid sky, Soothe like the music in a dream. And bien: cs, though they fly. The dawn that wakes the day Brings the gay sun no more; T>rt in hit: milder ray, Wo know the storm is o'er. That night of storm whose wrath On love's glad vessel blown, Loft strew'd on memory's path The broken wrecks alone. Wo foel secure at laet, Though losing all our store Since blow whatever blast, Onr hearts can lose no more. THK FIRST BORN.-The Savannah Republican has these thoughts: The first born educates tho parents often more than they educate it. The rest of the family come, and are treated and educated much after the pattern of the first, modified, per? haps, a little by experience. But what watchings, cares, fears and hopes cluster instinctively round the first born. Many of these anxieties are needless for the first born alone, yet most needful for tho family, though vicarious as to the individual. They all teach the parents how to educate tho rest. Tho first born is often spoiled. And yet that con? centrated wealth of affection foolish? ly lavished often gives a condensed experience that moulds the course and training of the rest of the fami? ly, and educates them valuably by an experience gained in a first failure. Bnt where the parental af? fections are consecrated from the first in all their full richness to the thorough development and training of the body, the mind and tho reli? gious principles, thon, as a family grows, cares and difficulties. may como, but they will all be conse? crated and cast on the great father? hood of God, with the certain con? viction that His laws must be wisest, and His guidance the best. But further, to a really wonderful degree, the first born educates the rest of a family. Children educate those a little younger than themselves much more easily and extensively than grown people do. They are like guides who have just traversed the road to knowledge, and every mark and difficulty is fresh, and they know how to surmonnt it. Dr. Wayland lays it down as a law of education, that those who know only a Utile more than they who are taught, are better teachers than those who know so much that tho knowledge has lost ita freshness. Thus the greatest influ? ence of a parent often oomes to be with the younger children chiefly through the elder, and where these are what they should be, it becomes ono of the most beantiful and glorious rewards of beginning life aright, and consecrating all our ties in life from * the first to the Great Being whose service brings unspeakable rewards. THE TRUE LIFE.-The mere lease of years is not life. To eat and drink and sleep; to bo exposed to darkness and the light; to pace round the mill of habit, and turn the wheel of wealth, to moke reason our book? keeper, and turn into an implomont of trade-this is not lifo. In all this, but a poor fraction of the con? sciousness of humanity is awakened, and the sanctities still slumber which make it most worth while living. Knowledge, truth, love, beauty, faith, alone can give vitality to the mechanism of existence; the laugh of mirth which vibrates through the heart, the tears that fresheu tho dry waste within, the music that brings childhood back, tho prayer that calls the future, the doubt which makes us meditate, the death which startles us with mystery, the hardships that force us to struggle, the anxiety that ends in trust, aro tho true nourish ment of rational beings. A new machino for navigating the | nir, invented by a Scotchman, will bo brought out under tho auspices of the British iEcronautic Soc i oty. It is a sort of bird, with a body fifteen feet in length, and wings stretching out to the width of thirty-five feet. A tail reaches ont behind to givo di? rection to tho movement, while the wings aro flapped by au ongiuo of forty-horse power. This, it is said, can bo made to proceed through tho air at tho rato of forty miles un hour.

" March 21 Vatted States Currency sad Ex? change. . Tho currency of tho United States is denominated decimal currency, the dollar (represented thoa $) being the Unit; and on this bash] all calculations ?re made. One dollar consists of 100 cents, and each oent of 10 mills, and may be written either $1 or $1.00, or $1.00.0, though this latter form is somewhat unusual. So, again, "ono hundred dollars" is written $100, or $100.00, as may bo preferred; but whero the two ciphors aro addod, as m the latter case, they must bo prefixed by tho deci? mal point. Tho uso of this will bo obvious in the following illustration-say, ono hun? dred dollars and twentw-five cents, which is written $100.25, and BO on, for any amount. Tho dollar formerly in nso was tho Spa? nish dollar, (in silver,) tho valuo of which was 4s. cd. sterling. This was taken and has since been and still is usod as the basis oi exchange; anu to tina causo may bo attributed most or much of tho mis? conception as to American exchange. If $1 bo worth 4s. Gd., what is thc valuo in dollars of ?1, or 20s.? 4a. 6d.-4A shillings. 20 40 Then - -4.41 4, or 4 dois. 44 cents, 4J 9 and 4-10 of a cent, or 4 mills. Now, supposing tho standard of Ameri? can currency to bo still tho Spanish dol? lar, it is clear that $4.44.4 would represent at par tho value of ?1 sterling. Hut thul standard has been changed-first, by a United States silver coinago, and then by a gold one; so that now tho par valuo is about 04 per cent, above $4.44.4, or $4 80 por ?. Hence, when exohange is quoted, say 109} to 110 in New York, it is about par- i. "c., it is just as profitable, to buy oxchango at that price for a remittance as it is to Bend gold. If tho price bo 111 to 112, it would pay oxpenecs, and 1 per cent, to 2 per cont, in addition, to send gold; but if below 109J, there would bo loss in shipping gold. All exchange is calculated upon a gold basis, but at tho present timo tho usual business of thc United States is transact? ed in currency. This has to bo taken into account in settling any price quoted from there, or sending remittances for pay? ments; and this is done in tho following manner-for instance: What is ?100 worth in currency, with exchange, say, at 109J, and gold at 40 per cent, premium? ?1-444.44. Therefore, ?100-444.44. And 444.44 at 109J-$180.05 in gold. Which, at 40 per cent, premium-$081.31 in currency. Tho Bamo process gives the titi? result, let tho rate of exchange and premium on gold vary as they may. And, vice tersa, to find tho valuo "of a given amount of cur? rency in sterling: A in Now York wishes to pay B in Lon? don tho valuo of $8,600 currency in ster? ling. Gold is 130, and exchaugo 108.J. How many pounds, shillingsmud pence must ho send him? $4.44.4 at 108J gives, say, $4.82.2 in gold. Which at 30 prem.-$0 558 per ? sterling. $8,G00 Therefore,-?1,311 7s. Gd., amo't $G.558 to bo remitted. And so again: What is tho value in sterling of $1,000 in United States 5-20 bonds, when quoted at Uli in Now York, with gold at 134 and exchaugo108? Trico of bonds-111$, i. e., 11$ premium. Then $1,000 at 11$ premium-$1,115. $4.444 at 108-say, $4.80 in gold. Which at 34 prem.-$0.432 per ? sterling. $1,115 Therefore, - -?173 7s., valuo of $6.432 $1,000 in sterling. Tho difticulty to bo overcomo by those inexperienced will bo with regard to tho decimal points, in multiplying and divid? ing; hut tho working of one or two ex? amples, and hearing in mind what tho numbers represent, will fully obviate this. By noticing tho prices of exchango and gold quoted daily in the papers, a correct answer to any query as to exchange can at once bo wrought out by the abovo. As all articles of American produce arc quoted iu currency, this calculation must be made to determine the cost in sterling; and as the premium on gold and tho rate of exchango aro constantly varyinp, (though tho latter to" a much less extent,) any ono wishing to know the valuo of any commodity from thenco must make fresh calculations almost daily to insure exact? ness. The Stato Central Executive Committee suggest to Democratic clubs tho following, simple form of constitution: In order to aid in restoring Constitu? tional liberty to tho people and States of tho United Stutes, we, tho undersigned residents of , do hereby form ourselves into au organization, to bo known as the Democratic Club of ; and, that in connection Kith the cardinal principles of thu National Democracy, "we recognize tho odored population of the State as au integral element of the body politic, and as such in person and property entitled to a full and equal protoction, un? der tho State Constitution and laws, and that, as citizous of South Carolina, wo de? claro our willingness, when wt? have thc power, to grant thom, under proper quali? fications as to property and intelligence, the right of suffrage."
