C. Sold at all bookstores. The Englishman says " I fancy;" tho Yankee, guess," ana the Southerner, reckon," to express a qualified assout. Again, the Englishman says, "I beg par don?" where tho Yankee asks, "What's it?" and tho Southerner simply grunts interrogatively. Now, all these expres? sions are well enough in their places, and tho only absurdity about tho matter is that each party defends his own provin? cialism, and ridicules his neighbor's. Many sormons might be preached on this toxt. -So ulhern Metropolie. What is tho difference between an editor and a wife? One sets articles to rights, and tho other writes articles to set. A young Indy of Logan County, Ey., advertises for "sealed proposals for her hand and heart." A married Indy being asked to waltz, gavo the followiug sensible and appro? priate answer: "No, I thank you, : \v. havo hugging enough nt home." Grvelt-jr Denounce? th? "Ginini Army of thc lit-public." Tho Newpiork Tribune, a short tim? since, in reply to ft lotter written ny Henry \V. Bennett, of Iowa, calling the paper to account for denouncing the "Grand Army," reiterates its charges, and speaks as follows: These men combine for political pur? poses. They propose to keep olive the wrath and bitterness of that dreadful time. They mean to control conven? tions and nominate men to office-to perpetuate in our civil system the bitter? ness of -war." We believe the soldiers should receive abnndaut reward. When I a soldier and a civilian apply for office, all things else being equal, we should prefer the soldier. But we dislike this making a privileged class, aud especially we dislike this getting into u corner, and having pass-words and grip*, and making an exclusive olass. Washington foresaw this when he op? posed tho Society of the Cincinnati. He saw in this association the first step to? ward an aristocracy, and he declined to ally himself with it. What Washington said should be remembered now. How is an association more numerous and more powerful than tho Cincinnati, which purposes to over keep alive a war with brothers aud follow-countrymen, to exult in victories over Americans, to re? joice over tho destruction of men in whose blue veins runs tho blood which courses in our owu, and who, whatever their crimes or errors, aro of our own country? We say, let all the memories of the past sink into the hell to which they belong. Let ns think only of tho wounds to be healed, of harvests to grow again, of sens once more covered with our cominerco, education to tho oppress? ed, justice to all. We say this, and sacrifice none of the principles defended by Mr. Bennett. He is, no doubt, earnest iu his belief that his work is worthy. But. there are bold, crafty and bad men, who look upon theso societies as so many instruments for their own advancement. They propose to ally themselves with this military govern? ment, with no moro claim upon it thau Theruadier, in Hugo's novel, had to be called the Sergeant of Waterloo. He followed tho army, aud robbed the bo? dies of the slain. The true soldier sheathes his sword, and buries it in tho closet, and it remaiusjan heir-loom. He becomes a citizen, and makes no claim for political honor but that of citizen? ship. Above all things, he does not carry his epaulettes aud ribbons, his wounds and bruises, to it political con? vention, to bo knocked down to the highest bidder. There may be many of these men unwittingly iu the Army of the Republic, who probably entered with the views of Mr. Bennett. They will soon seo how they may bettor occupy their time. Especially do we entertain these views when wo lind in thc declarations of these secret soldier associations so many ex? pressions of madness. The true soldier is thc most generous of foemen. Tnko the great captains who commanded the contending hosts. Do we lind Grant, or Sherman, or Sheridan, or Thomas, or Meade, assembling together and howling for more blood, more strife, more bitter? ness? Do we fiud Lee, or Longstreet, or i?.Illiston, or Beauregard insisting that the hates of secession shall be prolonged? These men fought their fight aud ended. Their anger ceased with the echo of the last guns fired in anger. From this Grand Army of tho Republic now parading through political conventions in the West, commanded bj' the captains of the caucus, the lobby, and the biir room, wu appeal to the Grand Army of the Re? public which carried our banners over a hundred fields under the eye of Grant. Shermuu aud Sheridau. We denouueo ' this new secret association as out of sym? pathy with the true Republican party, aud as inimical to the Constitution and Union. It will be a sad day for our party when soldiers find no better work than to prowl over the battle field of tho past and dig up the bodies of the slain. Tho country wants peace, and rest, and harmony, and justice. These naen want a distracted cotiutrj' that offices maj' be gained. They would make America a Mexico; peace would bo sent to sleep with Turks and infidels, and instead of union, they would "the wofulost division make that ever fell upon this cursed earth." TERUWIIB CONFLAGRATION IN HOBBY COUNTY.-We learn from the Horry Neues that ono of thc most extensive fires ever known in that section has been raging for the last two weeks in All Saints' Pa? rish. It broke out near the upper cud of Ocean Raj', not far from sea-shore, and h s reached tho Wilson cstato lands, on tho Waccatnaw, six miles above Con wayboro, having burned over a distance of nearly twenty miles. Tho average breadth of the firo is unknown. Tho country through which it passed is lite? rally burned up. Bay after bay and swamp after swamp havo been made baro of all undergrowth, and thc trees and timber completelj' destroyed. Tho savannahs, with the turpentine boxes, are made sterile wastes. Tho hot, dry weather rendered it impossible to check tho onward march of tao llames. It is y t bnrniug, but will be likely lo stop its career ou tho banks of the Waccatnaw. Wo have not learned the particulars con? cerning the losses occasioned by this fire, but aro satisfied that thry aro great. OI.D SOLDIERS!-Read the graphic stories of Confederate Camps and Fields by "Personne," in the "XIX Century Magazine" published at Charleston, S. C., and sold by all bookseller*. Price ?3.50 per annum; single numbers 35 couts. FIRE.-Wo regret to hoar of tho .le structiou, bj' fire, of tho dwelling-houso and out-houses of Mr. Xelsou, near Cal? houn's Mills, a few nights ago. The five, wo understand, left him iu a destitute condition. - A bbeville B-inner. AROUNDJTHE WORLD.-Probably bat a ?OF.o?. oar readers, saya a New York pa? per, are aware, now that tho Pacifi? Bail rood is completed, thats journey around the world eon bo mode in eighty days, wbieh estimate allows for ordinary de? lays inoident to traveling. Moreover, the entire distance caa be traversed by steam either J laud or water, save about one hundred miles in Indio, between Al? lahabad and Bombay, over which a rail? road isjuow constructing. The particu? lars of this marvelous trip-for it is even more than marvelous-we condense into tabular form, for convenient reference, ns follows: New York to San Francisco (rail) 7 days; San Francisco to Yoko? hama (steamship) 21; Yokohama to Hong Kong (steamship) 6; Hong Kong to Calcutta (steamship) 12; Calcutta to Bombay (rail) 3; Bombay to Cairo fsteamship and rnil) 14; Cairo to Paris (steamship aud rail) 6; Paris to Now York ll. FRUIT FROM THE PACIFIC COAST.-The San Francisco papers are indulging in interesting speculations on the subject of supplying the New York market with Ca? lifornia fruits weeks and months in ad? vance of tho products of the New York orchards. Two of tho largest fruit grow? ers in that State have planted this year orohards of from 5,000 to 10,000 cherry trees, with special reference to meeting the domand in New York city. Califor? nia grapes and pears of the 1 hied quality can bo furnished from July to January. For some years post, apricots, peaches, plums, pears, npples and grapes have been transported from California to dif I feront parts of Nevada and Idaho, the trips occupying from five to fifteen days, and sold at a handsome profit; and it is argued that with tho employment of re? frigerated cars, the dealer will bo able to place fruit in New York at foir prices. THE CRAZY PORTWARDEN.-We hovo lenrued somo additional facts relativo to Holloway, the colored Portwarden, elected by Council on Tuesday night. Scarcely two weeks hovo elapsed since he left the Lunatic Asylum, and during his stay in that excellent institution his mad? ness assumed nt times a very violent character. Alderman Holloway, his father, has gono to Columbia, we hear, to secure, it possible, some affidavits of his sou's sanity.-Charleston News, 19th. A popular poet was much attached to a young lady who was born a day before him, and who did uot return his passion. "Your's is a hard case," said a friend. "It is indeed," said the poet, "for I carno into tho world rt day lifter the fair," A man hos been discovered in a cove in Hamilton, Tennessee, where he bad been confined 271 days. Although still alive, he had lost his hair and teeth, aud was in a pitiful plight. He is recover? ing. William Henry Disbrow, formerly ad? jutant of the Ninth New York artillery, but better known during the last quarter of a century os tho proprietor of a large riding school, died on Monday morning last in New York city. The big potteries of Trenton, N. J., have bean furnished with labor-saving machinery during tho fifteen weeks that the strikers have held out, and the manu? facturers now offer to take back only a few of the men in any case. Don't bo too anxious to solve a conun? drum. .Wo know a man who got two black eyes iu endeavoring to find out the difference between a mau and a womau fighting in the street. Mythology tells us that Io died bo-1 I cause of her intense love for Jupiter, but j the charm of the romantic story has lately been destroyed by a chomist dis 1 covering Iodide of potassium. A man lately appeared in an Indiana jwn, wearing o vest mode out of the skins of ten rattle-snakes, part of a nest of one hundred and six snakes killed in one day by u Kentucky farmer. The frontior towns of Minnesota find it difficult to retain school-ma'ams. They all become wives after a three months' residence. An old bachelor thinks the trails of j ladies' dresses infernal machines, from the fact that a blow up took place di? rectly after ho had put his foot on one. HEINITSH'S QUEEN'S DELIGHT.-What is it? Ask your neighbor, who has been relieved of a distressing disoose. Ask that rheumatic what cured him. Ask the victims of dyspepsia. Ask that beau? tiful daughter what removed those hide? ous spots and ulcers, and made her face os fair as Parian marble. Ask tho once jaundiced victim of liver complaint. Ask that once poor emaciated form, the subject of female irregularities, what brought about such a marvelous change. The answer is, "It's HEINITSH'S QUEEN'S I DELIGHT." Como ont, then, all ye de? sponding ones. Be cheerful, gay and happy. If you aro sick, fail not to try, only try-no easier task-o bottle of HEINITSH'S QUEEN DELIOHT. Jl - BEAUTIFUL WOMAN.-If you would bo beautiful, use Hagan's Magnolia Laim. It gives a pure Blooming Complexion aud restores Youthful Beauty. Its effects nr? gradual, natural and perfect. It removes Redness, Blotches and Pim? ples, cures Tau, Sunburn and Freckles, and makes a lady of thirty appear but twenty. The Magnolia Balm makes thc Skin Smooth and Pearly; tho Eyo bright and clear; tho Cheek glow with tho U?ooni of Youth, and imparts a frosh, plump op penrancc to the Countenance. No lady need complain of her Complexion, when 75 couts will purchase this delightful ar? ticle. The best article to dress the hair is Lyou's Kathairou. J19 THE ASHBURN MURDERERS KNOWN. Oar contemporary of tho Columbus E i ?uirer famishes some fae te in tho Ash barn case that had escaped oar memory. We copy them as additional information for the New York Tribune, which ap? pears talkative on a sabjeot of whioh it is profoundly igaorant. The Enquirer says: "The peopie of Columbus know only two of the marderers of Ashburn, and know them as the marderers only by their own confession. Why are not these two men brought to punishment? Sim? ply because they were sent out of the State by the radical military authorities, and are protected from arrest by radical officials. If the Tribune really wants the murderers punished, can it not begin the work by having sent back to Georgia the only two mea known to have been par? ticipants in the bloody deed ?" ELOQUENCE.-But, as I said before, we have proved to you where that town line is. Yes, gentlemen of the jury, thero it is, and there it will romain for? ever; and all the ingenuity of my learned brother can never, never efface it-can never wash it out. No, gentlemen, he may plant one foot on the utmost verge of the outermost ring of the planet Sa? turn, then plant the other on Arcturus and seize the Pleiades by the hair and wring them till they are dry, but he can? not wash out that town line. A promising young shaver of five or six years was reading his lesson at school one day, in the deliberate manner for which urchins of that ago are somewhat remarkable. As he proceeded with the task, he came upon the passage, "Keep thy tonguo from evil, and thy lips from gruie." Master Hopeful drawled out, "Keep-thy-tongue-from-evil-and -thy-lips-from-girls." A young man who, on being asked by a judge whether bo had a father aud mo? ther, said he wasn't quite certain whe? ther he had or not; first, his father died, and then his mother married again; and then his mother died, and his step-father married again; and now he didn't oxnetly know whether they were his father and mother or not. Tho fellow who perpetrated the follow? ing reccipc for making Bologna sausage has evidently traveled much and thought more: "Take au eel skin and stuff it with ground cat or dog; season it with Scotch snuff aud persimmon oil; lay it on the hog pen to dry, and then hang it in a Dutch grocery for three months for tho flies to give it tho trade mark." A neat thing-lady visits legal gentle? man, consults him, is about leaving; legal gent reminds her of his foe; lady calls him mercenary, says: "You want tho shekels, do you?" Legal wit-"My dear madam, if I am to come down with my 'talents' you must come down with the 'shekels.' " Exit. Two citizens were lately comparing notes upon the merit of their spouses. "Mine," said ono, "would be a very good wife, if she were not so talkative. " "Talk al Eve?" replied the other, "why, you aro a happy fellow; my wife talks morning, noon and night." A cable despatch from London has it that tho Ecumenical Council, which was arranged to bo held at Rome, in Decom j ber of this year, is to be postponed for at least twelve mouths. This is telegraphed as a rumor. It may or it may not bo true. A North Caroliun State Senator is ac? cused of writing the annexed letter: "Sister marry i Wood hav sent your by your husband if i had known when ho was GoinG to love, you Just buse him for me but dont you hurt your Self in so doing you affection brothear." A remarkable litter of pigs is mention? ed by an Illinois paper. The seven pigs have, ia all, thirty-four legs. Two have six each, two have five each, and the re? maining three will have to waddle about on the usual number. The mother of this family has five legs. A young lady said to her beau, as she held a pot of hot water in her hand, "promise to marry me, or I'll scald you." "Lotit come," ho replied; "I'd rather have a little poured on me now, thou to live in it all my life." SLEETY ONIONS.-Some onions hap? pened to be planted near a bed of pop? pies, and in consequence of their close neighborhood to the somniferous flow? ers, they became so sleepy that they could hardly be pulled out of their beds. Some genius has couceived tho bril? liant idea to press all the lawyers iuto tho military service, because their charges aro so great no one can withstand them. lu reply to a young writer who wishes to know "which magazine will give mo the highest position quickest," the Pe? tersburg Express advises "a powdor magazine, if you contributo a fiery ar? ticle." ? A belle of Arga, India, is in full dress wheu swathed in two shawls, with thirty bracelets, fourteen pairs of ear-rings, seven necklaces, one nose pendant, and a seal ring on each thumb. Prince Uchtoniski has recently been sentenced by tho Court of Moscow to perpetual exile in Siberia, for theft. Here, wo regard our princely thieves as houorablo und "smart" men, nnd give them exalted offices. PRINTER'S ERROR.-A local poet in? dited a sounot to his mistress, "I kissed her sub rosa." Tho compositor know better than that, and ho set it np in printer's Latin, "I kissed her snub uosa." An English chemist has discovered a preparation which will petrify human bodies, aud suggests that by his method one can mako excellent building mate? rials of his ancestors. A Cuban expedition of 500 mou ar? rived at Erie, Pa., from Philadelphia. They will cross over to Canada, and on Friday embark on n vessel clearing from n Canadian port. Quotion salee.
