COLUMBIA, S. C. Sunday Morning, December ll, lo70. MELANCHOLY.-Melancholy has been impersonated by numerous writers us a tall, sad, female with wo-worn visage, drooping eye-lids, aud dreamy, despond? ing aspect. No woudor this mentnl malady, so grievous in ?ls influence on tho human mind, should bo thus repre? sented by prophet seers, as poets ure not inaptly called. We duro aver that most of those subject to her depressing iufluonco, describe her best. Both Cow? per and Kirke White (espeaially the latter) paint uer in doleful colors. Me? lancholy is somethiug quito distinct from that decent seriousness common to many temperaments, aud is often the result of ill-health or disappointed hopo. In either case, though sneered at by the unreflecting, sober reasoners and gener? ous thiukors regard those ovor-borno by her sombro presonco with pity aud sym? pathy, rather than with any more iguo blo and moro reprehensible feeling. It were but benevolent, kind uud charitable to win her victims, if possi? ble, through cheerful representations of lifo, and arts known to uflection, v.di.cli ever seeks the good of those who sharo it. Bodily diseaso is afflictive, aud men? tal butlering even moro so. How ten? derly, then, should unfortunates bo treated who writhe under the latter malady! If aggravated by harshness, iu their eiiso, fearful results sometimes en cue, aud those heartless enough to deal radely with melancholy people see rea? son in tho end, to ?epent bitterly of such a course- of conduct. Doubtless n cheerful temper should be cultivated, moro especially where tho natural dis? position inclines one to gloomy views of life. Yet it is not perhaps the fault of hy pocondriaos, even if they are not able to cultivate this desirable state of mind. It has been asserted, with whut truth wt cannot take on us to determine, thal some specios of derangement pertains to the mind of every mau-not except ing tbe most exalted in intellect. A natural despondency muy be this ver^ weakness. Is it uot cruel, then, to ug gr?vate an evil which common httmanitj should teach us to ameliorate, by gen th and loving means? We are making no apology for meian oboly people, their own hopeless malady being their best defence. We aro ooh asking charity for tho mentally diseased nevertheless, is it incumbent on such t< strive manfully with this gorgon, wh< should bo, if possible, driven from tin mind, lest a host of horrors follow in he dismal train. Religion should inspin pleasing contemplation, not only of thi life, but of that which is to come. If benevolence bo the main uttribub of Deity, couched under tho attractive uame of Love, which all his creature must know, nod all nature shows is true then have wo cause, not only for lind ties gratitude, but for a cheerful tempei Like birds of dawn, wo should sing ii sun-light, not us the evil-omened ow hoots, covered with melancholy darknes nt noon-day. If not for our sake, c least in consideration of those uronm us, wo aro best employed (supposiu melancholy our enemy) whou lightiuj manfully against her insidious in road t Above all, let tho Christian, knowiu himself an heir of immortality, lookin away from transitory scenes, amidst ad verse aud troublous existence, whe 'storms revel and sun-light is withdrawr. for that better country whero no rudel milling blast mars pleasant fields, an withiu whoso hullo wed precincts sir sorrow, nor evon melancholy, dare ir trude. -. Tho colton seed oil of the Souther States has a great future before it, secou only in importance to tho gigantic p> troleum trade of the Northern State So says the Liverpool Circular of Ale: S. Macrae, of November li), which add "Its sweetness, utility and price aro no commending it everywhere, and thou/! in England wo aro manufacturing sou .20,DUO toosannually, (chi. dv ?"rom Egy lian seed,) tho quality is nor, to bo cot pared with tho American, as the folloi ing values will testify: Tho price of En liah to-duy is ?31, at which it is slo' the value of American JESS to A'ly v> ton, at which it is in strong denian The range of quotations for Americt oil begins from tho worst of it, (whit eclipses uny of ours,) to tho best of i that is, from ordinary yellow to Hi bleached.

Oar consumption for it is pru tinnily inexhaustible-we use. it for soa for salads, for lubricating, and for bill ing-and tho wholo continent ot Euro consumes it largely.

An nero of laud hus been sold in t oity of London for $3,(500,000, and nearly every portiou of the city lund said to be increasing ia value evt year. A Coon Timur.-Tba audacity, cool? ness and readiness of aome thieves, is most astounding. Only a few ovoniugo since., a boarder at one of tbe fnshioun ble boarding bouses i u Twenty-first stree! on bis way to bis room from dinner, met a well-dressed young man at tbe foot of tbe hall stairs, with several coats on his arm. "Where aro you going with this property?" inquired the unsophisticated boarder. "To be cleaned," readily re? sponds the thief. "So here, my dear fellow," observed the boarder, "I have a oout here that should be cleaned. When can yon give it to mo?" "To-morrow," promptly answered tbe bogus clotbeB clonuer. "Be B?ro and hiing it back to? morrow," remarked tho verdant boarder, as he stripped off his overcoat and bund? ed it to the thief, who walked off with his plunder, in a short time after, it ?vas discovered that the house was rob? bed, nud during the evening it dawned on tho benighted mind of the simple? minded boarder thnt tho well-dressed individual he met on the stairs and car? ried oil' his coat, was not a clothes clcanor, but an out-and-out thief. [New York Commercial. HOMUBTJE GRIMES IN UTAH.-The fol? lowing despatch has been received from Nephi, Utah, dated December 5: Two mon, named Richard Sopher and An? toine Yarlardie, were arrested, charged with committing outrages on their step? daughters, whose ages are ten, elevon, twelve and thirteen years, both men having married women who had children by former husbands. Tho prisoners mndo full confessions of guilt. While being conveyed to prison under guard they gavo a yell, nod springing out of tho wagon, rau away, tho guard pursu? ing nud calling on them to stop. Tho prisoners paid no attention to theso de mauds, nod tho guards fired, bringing them down. Tho prisoners died shortly afterwards. WHAT GENERAL BKAUREOAIUJ WENT TO EOROPR FOR.-The New York Sun, of Monday, says: "Goneral Beauregard was among tho passengsas by the Ville de Paris, which left this port for Brest on the 28th ult.

In winier.- Having fur the laBt thirty-tlvu years devoted ruy whole timu and attention tu the study of inns dis? eases and consumption, I feel that. 1 under? stand fully tho course that ought tb be pur? sued to restore a tolerably bad caso of diaeubi d lungs to healthy soundness. The first ami most important step is for the patient te avoid taking oold, and the beet of ail place? on this continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida, woll down Sn the State, wheru tin temperature is regular, and not subject tc such variations as in mure Northern latitude* I'alatka is a point I can recommend. A good hotel is kept there by Peterman. Last win ter I saw several persons there whoso lnnu bad been badly diseased, but who, nnder HM bealing influence of tho climate and my medt clues, were getting well. Ono hundred miles further down tho rivet is a point which I would prefer to I'alatka, nt tho tompcraturo is more oven and the air dr; aud bracing. Mellonville and Enterprise an localed Ibero. I should give a deoided pre foi ones to Mollouville.' lt is two miles iron river or lake, aud it seems almoet impossihli tn tako cold there. The tables in Floridi might bo better, and patients complain a times, but that is a good sign, as it indicate a roturn of appetite, and when this is thu uaw they generally increase in flesh, and then tb' lungB must boah Jacksonville, Hibernia, Groen Cove, am many other placeo in various parts of Florida can bo safely recommended to consumptive in wiutor. My reasons for saying so are tba patients aro ICBB liablo to take oold there ?ba whore there is a leas even temperature, and i is not necessary to Bay that wbero a consum? live person expos's himself to frequent coldi bo is certain to dio shortly. Therefore, m advice is, go well down into Ibo State, i ut c tho reach of prevailing East winds and fogi Jacksonville, or almost an v other of the h calitics I have named, will h ene lit those wb aro troubled with a torpid liver, a disorder? stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat < cough, but for t hose whose langs are disease a moro Soutborn point is earnestly rooon mended. Fur tiftoou years prior to 1869, I was profe Bionally in New York, Boston, Baltimore ar Philadelphia every week, whore I saw and e satined on sn average Ave hundred patients week. A practice so extensive, einbrach every possible phaso of lung disease, bas en bled mo to understand tho disease fully, al benco my caution in regard to taking cold, person may take vast quantities ox .?ocueiioa Pulmonic Syrup, Souweed Tonio and Ma drake Pills,'1 and yet dio if ho does not ave laking cold. In Florida, nearly everybody ia uah Schonok'a Mandrake Pills, for the climate more likely to produce bilious babita tbi moro Northern latitudes. It is a well esta lisbed fact that natives of Florida rarely d of consumption, especially those of the Sont ern part. On the other hand, in New En land, one-third, at loast, of the populati die of this terrible disease. In the Mide States it does not prevail so largely, st there aro many thousands of cases thei What a vast per cent ago of life would be sav if consumptives were as easily alarmed in i gard tu taking fresh cold aa they sro abo scarlet fever, small-pox, Ac. But they a not. They tit ko what they term a little col which they are credulous enough to bede will wear off in a tow days. '1 hey pay nu i tentiuii to it, and hence it lays tho fuandati for another and anothi r still, until tho lue are diseased beyond all hopb for cure. My advice to persons whose lungs s alluded even slijshtly is, to lay in a stuck Scheiick'a PullUOIliC Kyrtip, Scheliek'a .Sea we Tunic and Beb tuck's Mandi ak- Pills and I lu Florida. I recommend thei-e particui medicinen be en ute 1 am t borong hiv acquah ed with their a Ct H'tl. 1 know that where th are uacd in strict accurdauco with my din tions, they will do tho work that ia requin Tilla accomplished, nature will do the re The physician whu prescribo* for cold, cou or night-sweats, and then advises the pat!? to walk or ride out every day, will be sure havo a t orpso ou his banda before long. My plan is to give my three medicines, accordance with tho printed directions, t cept in mimo cABee wbero a freer nee of i Mandrake Pills is necessary. My object ia give tono to the stomach - to gut upa go appetite, lt is always a good sign whet patient begins to grow brr i;ry. I have hoi of such. With a relish for food and I gi ai ideation of that relish comes good bini and with it moro flesh, which ia closely t lowed by a hcaliug of tho lungs. Then t cough loosens and abates, the creeping ch and clammy night-sweats nu longer urostri and annoy, and the patient gets weil, prov ed he avoids taking cold. Now ttj ero aro many consumptives who bi not the moans to go to Florida. Thc quest may bo asked, is there no hope tur BOI Certainly lhere ts. My advice to such is, a ever has been, tu stay in a warm room duri thc winter, with a temperature of abi seventy degrees, which abould be ki regularly ut that point, by means of a tb mometer. Let snob a patient take bis ere i MC within tho limits of the room by wa ing np and down as much au bia strength i permit, in order to keep up a healthy cirer tion of the blood. I have cured tbousai by thin system, and can do au again. (J sumption 1? as easily cured as auy uti disease, if taken in time, and thc proper k of treatment is pnrsned. The fart nt m undisputed un record that Scheurk's Pule nie Syrup, Maudmke I ills, and Seaweed Tu have cured very many of what act med tu hopeless caaes" of consumption. Gu wb you will, you will bx nlmoat oertain to f somo pour consumptive who has been reset ! from tho very Jaws of death by their uso. ! So far an tho Mandrako Pills are concern everybody should keep a supply of them t hand.
