BY JULIAN A. SELBY. Chinese Indifeebenob to Death ? The Chinese are almost indifferent to the phenomenon of dissolution, und fn quontly compass their own end when life becomes wearisome. A wife sometimes elects to follow her husband on the starlit road of death; and pa? rents will destroy their offspring in time of famine and great distress, rather than allow them to suffer. Stih more remarkable is the custom of sell? ing their lives in order that th<-y may porohase the superior advantage of ob? sequies, which are considered to insure the body in safety for the future resur rcotion. A wealthy man condemned to death will arrange with bis jailer to buy him a substitute for a certain sum of money, to be spent upon the poor wretch's interment and preservation of his body. Should he have parentB, so mnoh is annually paid to them in compensation for their son's life. Ohinamen invariably help to support their parents; filial respect and devo? tion is the great Chinese virtue and religious precept, in which tbey rarely fail. Regarding death as inevitable, be makes the best of a bad bargain, and oonnipgly and comically gets paid for dying. The wholesale destruction of life in this country is greatly the reault of indifference. Henoe, the massacre of Europeans, bo terrible to ue, seems to them a matter of little moment, and they cannot comprehend why we should make a fuBs about it. They re? gard our indignant protestation very muoh as we might treat our irate neigh? bor whoae dog we had shot. "Well, well, be paoified; if it was such a fa? vorite, I am sorry, but it is only a dog, and there are plenty more. How moch do you want to be paid for it?" "You English think so muoh of a life," ar? gues the Chinese; "have you not plen? ty of people at home?" Death in Chi? na is awarded as the punishment for most trivial offences, and frequently for none at all, exoept being in some? body's way. A story was told me as fact, that daring the visit of one of the royal prinoes, a theft was committed of a chain or watch belonging to the royal guest. The unfortunate, attendant was caught with the property upon him, and withont farther ceremony his head was chopped off. The mau darin in attendance immediately an? nounced the tidings to the prince us a delicate attention, showing how de? voted he was in his service. To his astonishment, the prince expressed his great regret that the man's bead had been taken off. "Your Highne.is," cried the obsequious mandarin, bow? ing to the ground, "it shall immedi? ately be put on again I" so little did he understand tbat the regret was for the life taken, and not the severed head. In times of insurrection or famine the mowing down of human life is like oorn-etalks at harvest time, appalling to European ideas. I must confess to a nervous shuddering when I stood upon the execution groond at Canton? a narrow lane or potter's field?whero so many hundred bud been butchered per diem during the week-i together, the executioDor requiring the aid of two smiths to sharpen his swords, for many of the writhed viotims were not ullowod to bo destroyed at ono fell swoop, bnt sentenced to bo "hucked to pieces" by twenty to fifty blows. I was informed by a European who had traveled much and seen most of the .'rightful Bide of life, that witnessing Chinese executions was more tbau hie iron nerves could stund; and in some of the details which be was narrating I was obliged to beg him l<< desist. Aud yet he snys there was nothing uolemu uboot it, and the spectators looked oq umUicd. It was the horri? ble and grotesque combined. A white man, named W. C. Moreuu, while sitting with bis family, in Hiin dersvillo, Gil., n few nights ago, wus fired upon und iuptuntly killed, by a negro. Election of City Clerk. OFFicr.CriYCr.KnK, Columiua, S.

OFFICE OK J N.UOBSON, AOKNT fob tiOtXELE PACIFIC GUANO, ClIAI'.t.khton, S. C, Nov. 1, 1871. IN view of the near spin oach of another PLANTING SEASON. I take t?la uto Ui nil of calling your attention to nomn facts c mcernlng too hat* of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GU.tNO, which I think you will und both interesting and valuable. Heine among Um tirxt wh > introduced (in mo into this State. I o*u con?duutiy refer to my plant? ing friundn, that in tho aeries uf" years I have sold them manures. 1 have alwats given a puru article. Purchasers will find it to their mtercst to give mo a call before bu> iug. as from the facilities I have, and my long experience in tho business, I am enabled to fill all orders promptly and at tho lowest price. kol.uul.rc pauikiu uuano, It is now an admitted fact, OStablisbed and confirmed bv tnauy vears' exporionce in tho nsu of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO, that an o> dioary application to Cotton and Corn increases tho j ield to double the pro? duction of tho same suil unfertilized. This statement is in uowiso exaggerated; on the contrary, the results more frequently ex? ceed than fall short of tho above iticrcaje. The importance of an agency which thus increases the products of hired labor, can? not bo over-estimated. It is an agency which makes two bates of cotton and two barrels of com grow whore out) grow hofore. It is an Hgoncy which makes tho labor of one man equal to tho labor of two. It is an agency which makes one acre tinder culti? vation cq'icl to two acres. It is an agency which, it will be found by fair calculation, pays the consumer, with cotton at present or even lower price, throe to five dollars back for every one dollar invested, and this within a period of eight months' time. The above statements are not mere assertions, bat are verified by more than nine years' experience, and uro testified to by thou? sands of farmers and planters throughout tho Middlo and Souihern States. If it be true, as stated, that the crop is double by tin? use of this Guano, let us see what the fed GEitTOM OF PROFIT is when applied to cotton, putting the prico of cotton at 15 cents per pound. Planters often say they have made 100 per cent., because tho Gu? ano has doubled iho crop. That is a mis? take; it is much more than a profit of 100 per cent, on tho money iuvosted. Let us calculate tbo profit. To arrive at the por cent, of profit on an investment, tho net cost must bo divided into the nit \ gain. Now, if an acre of ground will pro? duce 150 pounds lint cotton without SoLUIlI.e I PaCIFC Guano, aud will produce 300 pounds , by tho use uf 201 pouuda Soluble Pacific: Guano, then the increase from tho ueooi tbo Guano is 150 pounds lint cotton, the cost of which is the money value of 200 pounds Guano. Hence, if wo dodnct the cost of the Guauo from the value of 150 pounds cotton produced by it, we have tho net gain from its use; thon, if we divide tbo coat of tho 20(1 pounds Guano into the net I gain, woget the exact por cent, of profit. Thus: 150 pounds cotton, net pain from uso of 200 pounds Guano, at 15 cents por pound.$22.50 | Deduct cost of 200 pounds Gnauo (cash price) i IS 00 per ton. 180 Net profit.$17 70 Now divido $1 s0, net cost, iuto $17.70. net gain, and tho result is 3G8, which is 36*8 I percent. In other "ords, for every dollar | thus invested, $4 C8 is roceivod in return, one oT which is the original investment, and $3 M are clear oroiit. thus being $3.(iH for one, which is 3G8 per cent. Is not this a fair imd correct showing ? If not, where is Iho error? Now. if it be true to one-half the above extent, Soluble Pacific Ocano is an ageucy of tho lugnost valno toagrieul tnre, aud wo commend it to you in season. I also invite your attention to facile.
