AGE or MAN.-Professor Faraday
adopts Flourins' physiological theory
thut the natural ago of man is 100 years.
Thc duration of life ho believes to be
measured by the time of growth. When
once the bones and epiphyses are united,
tho body grows no moro, und it is ut
twenty years this union is effected in
mau. In tho camol it takes plaoo at
eight; in the horse nt five; in the lion at
four; in tho dog ut two; in the rabbit at
one. The natural termination of life is
live removes from these several points.
Man being twenty years in growing, lives
fivo times twenty years, that is to say,
100 years; tho camel is eight years iu
growing, lives five times eight years,
that is to say, forty years; tho h orso is
five years in growing and lives twenty
five years, nud so with other animals.
The mau who does not die of sickness,
lives everywhero from eighty to 100
years. Providence has given man a
century of life, but ho does not attain
I it, because ho inherits disenso, oats un
I wholesome food, gives license to pas
j ?ions and permits vexation to disturb his
j healthy equipoise; ho does not die, he
j kills himself. Tho professor divides lifo
into two equal halves, growth and do
: olino, and these halves into infancy,
I youth, virility and ugo. Infancy extends
j to the twentieth year,; youth to the
' fiftieth, becauso it ia during this period
that tho tissues become firm; virility
from fifty to seventy-live, during which
j tho organism romains complete; und at
i soveuty-iivo old ago commences to lust a
I longer or shorter timo ns tho dimiiiu
? tiou of reserved force is hastened or ro
; larded.
Worcester, Massachusetts, has an elec
! trieal house. In passing around tho
j parlor and rubbing tho feet on the car
, pot, a person becomes highly charged
; with electricity; upon touching tho re
i gister, or any good conductor, a brilltaut
j spark of largo sizo is developed. Tho
; gas can bo readily lightod by first ttirn
j ing it on, and then rubbing thu feet on
I the carpet and holding ono finger over
: tho jot. A spark often dartB from tho
feet whon passing over certain places in
tho floor, producing a painful sensation.
When three or four pereons take hold of
hands and walk around, they nil become
powerfully charged, and tho one first
tonohing a conductor would not caro to
repeat tho experiment. What peculiar
arrangomont in a house is necessary to
j produce this phenomenon, and its iufiu
! enoe on the health of its inmates, being
j constantly charged with electricity, is a
j question for tho scientist.
A little girl asked her sister what was
? chaos, that her papa read about? Tho
j oidor replied, "It was a great pilo of
I nothing, and no place to put it in."
COLUMBIA, S. C.
Sunday Horning. February 25.1872.
Oommltteci from Charleston.
The oommilteea from the Boards of
Trade and of Commerce of Charleston,
appointed a few days si nco to visit tho
capital, and protest against the infamous
license and stamp bills, arrived hore yes?
terday morning. They were given a
hearing by tbe Governor, and afterwards
by tho Committee of Ways und Means.
What impressions the committee may
have made in these respective quarters,
it is impossible to say. They deserve,
however, the thanks of the people of
tho entire State for their patriotic efforts.
The committee, wo understand, was
composed of both white and colored
citizens, as follows: E. F. Sweeguu, Rev.
F. Brown, G. A. Glover, Hon. W. D.
Forter, Wm. C. Boo, Jos. D. Aiken, W.
J P. Hall, James M. Carson, Edw. Willis,
Dr. N. A. Pratt, G. Lamb Buist, Edw.
Platt, A. D. Estill, Blake L. White,
John H. Devereux, A. Baron Holmes.
The stamp bill we bavo not seen, b it
aro told that it provides for tho stump?
ing of all valuable legal papers with
stumps of the State, as is now required
for the General Government uudor tho
revenue laws. Tho license bill we have
looked into. It is simply infamous. It
requires for brokers a license of $100;
billiard tables or ton pin alleys, $50;
hotels, inns, taverns and saloons, from
$500 to $50, acoordiug tu rental value;
merchants, from $250 to $10, according
to amount of sales; banks, from $5,000
to $250, acoordiug to capital; railroads,
from $1,000 to $150, according to length
of road; auctioneers, in Richland and
Charleston Counties, $100-in other
Counties, $50; miners and phosphate
manufacturers, from $300 upwards,
being $50 extra for every $1,000 of capi?
tal over $5,000, This single item shows
a tax of preoisely six per cont, on the
capital invested. But this is not nil.
Every lawyer is required to pay $10;
telegraph companies, $50 for tho first
fifty miles of lino, and $25 for every
additional fifty miles; express companies
and common carriers of that kind,
$250. Any person failing to take out a
liceuse for the businesses described, ure
to be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor,
and to be punished with a fine of not
less than double their license, and im?
prisonment for not less than six months.
LETTING THE TRUTH OUT.-Tho Troy
Wliig thus conservatively remarks:
"The Southern rebels ought to have
joined the Republicans. They ought to
havo kicked every Democrat that came
within kiaking distance. [If they had
kicked Republicans it would bu Ku
Kloxing. I If they hud joined tho Re?
publicans there would have boen com?
plete amnesty. We hold that the South?
ern rebe) who will speak to such a man
as Fernando Wood, or ?linke bands with
Horatio Seymour, is not lit to have civil
or political rights."
The New York Commercial Advertiser
endorses this "except 03 to the speaking
aud hand-slinking, nnd more particularly
as to tho kicking." The Troy Whig and
tho Commercial Advertiser deserve com?
mendation for their candor. If other
Republican journals would imitate their
frankness, tho South would understand
moro clearly why it is that Ku Klux pro
socutions there impend over an inoffens?
ive peoplo, aud what is tho real ofTeuco
for which itj citizens are sent to peniten?
tiaries, whoro they may be subjected to
horrors thnt aro not permitted to be dis?
closed. Ku Kluxism consists in not
"having joined the Republicans." "If
they bad joined tho Republicans there
would have been complete amnesty."
Wo duro say.

Comptroller Neagle addressed tho

tion, reviewing tho financial policy of
the State Government, Ho said that if
his policy of paying expenses by taxa?
tion lind been pursued, the bonded debt
of the Stato would now bo only about
$8,000,000, whereas tho policy of run?
ning tho Government on loans, with

give an entertainment iu Irwin's Hall
morrow (Monday) ovoning. The ticki
aro being disposed of rapidly, at I
music store of tho Messrs. LyBrai
Sol Smith Russell is a host in himsc
Tho Augusta Constitutionalist thus ref
to the troupe:
"A crowded house greeted tho Ber{
Family of Swiss Bell Ringers in th
performance at Masonic Hall last evi
ing. Much has been paid in praise
the musical talent of this family by I
prcis of the country, and never v
praise moro deserved. The music of 1
bulls, ns played by tho accomplis!
young ladies aud gentlemen who co
poso tho troupe, is sweet beyond i
scriptiou, and carries ono away, as
were, to u laud of melody. The qnii
ness, the gracefulness and the precis:
with which tho notos are rung ont
truly astonishing. Tho per for rum
commenced with a medley on the bi
by tho entire family. Tho audio!
almost hold their breath while w
ohimcd forth in silver tones the Garni
of Venice, tho Last Roso of Summer i
Gent?o Annie. This was followed b
ballad exquisitely sung by Miss Ne
Knapp. Tho cornet solo of Miss Ai
Borger was very Uno and was rapture
ly encored. The character songs i
impersonal ions of Sol Smith RUB
wore full of humor, and received w
storms of applause. Mr. Russell ii
genius, and his imoom parable no tin,
alone worth the prico of ad misai
Tho stuff boll solo of Miss Henri?
Berger was splendidly rendered. 1
performance concluded with a gn
undunto and allegory by the silver <
net band."
By tho way, tho Messrs. LyBrand,

of several of tho members,
THE Vanna AT THK FAIR.-The Pal
mottoes are highly delighted at the re?
sult of their fair. It waa declared
closed, yesterday moruiog, at about half
past 2. A dancing frolic wound up the
affair, in which many ladies and gentle?
men participated. The gold-headed
cane was awarded to Captain John Mc?
Kenzie,, of the Independents. There
wore 1G1 votes polled-of which Captain
McKenzie rcoeived Gi; Captain W. B.
Stanley, of the Palmettoes, 57; scatter?
ing 13. The votes were counted, yes?
terday morning, before a committee from
tho two companies. It was a difficult
matter with many of the voters to de?
cide for whom they would cast their suf?
frages, and the result was that numbers
votod for both the veteran caplaius. A
beautiful wreath, prepared by Miss
Lynch, was also ballotted for, and was
awarded to tho Indepcudent Company -
many of tho Pulmettoes voting for the
ancient company. Tho utmost good
feeling prevailed.
PHONIXI?NA.-Tho unsolvable woman
question-the question of age.
Thoro is a ruoe of people in Northern
Hindost?n called Todas, who destroy
most of their female children. We can
conceive of no earthly reason for this
barbarous practice, unless it comes from
the reading of "Woodhull and Clafiin's
Weekly.
What are the points of difference be?
tween the Prince of Wales, an orphan,
a bald head, and a gorilla? The Prince
is heir apparent, an orphan has ne'er a
parent, a bald head has no hair appa?
rent, and a gorilla bas a hairy parent.
Some people nt a orowded evening
party had belles on their tones. It gene?

There is this difference between hap?
piness and wisdom-he that thinks him?
self the happiest really is so, but he that
thinks himself the wisest is generally
the greatest fool.
Happiness consists in the ability to
appreciate.
It wus a saying of the first Napoleon,
that every man should make his oppor?
tunities-his chances. Bat as a general
thing, while ten men watch for chances,
only one makes chances; while ten men
wait for something to turn ap, only one
turns something up; so while ten men
fail, one succeeds, and is called a man
of luck, and the favorite of fortune.
There is no lack like plnck, and fortune
most favors those who are most indiffer?
ent to fortune.

Helen Blazes is the queer name of a

Tho projector of a new paper at Atlan?

him about as busy as a school-boy with

A correspondent divides brides into
two classes, the serious and the smiling.
The first enters with a queenly step, and
seems to say, "Don't look at me. Don't
you see I'm married, and that those days
aro over?" The other comes np smiling,
as much as to say, "I've landed him.
Is it not good fun?"
Childhood is like a mirror, oalohing
and reflecting images all around it. Re?
member that an impious or profane
thought uttered by a parent's lips may
j operate on a young heart like a careless
i spray of water upon polished steel,
(staining it with rust which no after
I scouring can efface.
I A scholar in a country school waa
asked, "How do you parse 'Mary milks
tho cow?' " Tho last word was disposed
of as follows: "Cow, a noun, feminine
gender, singular number, third person,
and stands for Mary." "Stands for
Mary! How do you make that out?"
"Because," added tho intelligent pupil,
"if tho cow didn't stand for Mary, how
could sho milk her?"
