The Fossils of South Carolina.
During the past year, Prof. Holmes,
of the Charleston Colloge, and Prof.
Tuomey, of Alabama, have commenced
the illustriation of the Fossils of
South Carolina. Six numbers have
been issued, which are very handsom
specimens of lithography and typography,
acconpanied with scinontihc descriptions
ot the fossil. The work has
been well received by the scientific
rentiomen ot our couutr}*, and the propriety
of its continuance is unquestionable.
The only difficulty in the way of
ts successful completion is a certain
ImpecutitosUy, which is characteristic
)i the genus of scientific naturalists,
ind which prevents the progress of
science. If any means could be adoptjd
by which this class could make mousy
while working for the benefit of scijnco,
then their special departments
svould fionrish, but it is a rare thing for
in enthusiastic lover of science to be able
to publish his labors. lie must depend
on the public to aid liitn, and uness
a subscriber can appreciate a book,
ne is not apt to subscribe to it. The advance
in educational pursuits more
ban repays the outlay, if the public
jould only be made to believe it in
id vance instead of afterwards. It is
necessary, therefore, for governments
"o extend their fostering aid to what
.vill assist the inarch of mind, and ensourago
all literary and scientific research.
The small contributions occasionally
asked for scientific purposes
in our State, cannot be contributed to

The Seventh Trial*
There has always been a iqystic reputation
for the number seven, and altho'
the number of believers in such
tilings may be lees in these latter days
than formerly, yet they will all take
notice that the French attack on the
Malakoff was only successful on the
seventh assault. The amiable Polissier
must believe in number seven, for
his first start in life was when he was
thrown, by request, into an Arab fort,
from which the French troops haa
been six times repulsed. In tne Crimea
he probably xemerabered this;
and the story of Brace, who when a
prisoner, watched a spider building his
web; six times the spider attempted
to fasten one of his supporting cables
?six times the spider tailed, but the
Beventh ho was successful. The Scottish
king took heart of grace from the
Krseverance of the insect. He had
en six times defeated, but the seventh
was the battlo 01 Bannockburn,
quite as important in that day as the
Malakoff. These coincidents are interesting,
and convey a good lesson ?
There are Malakofis in every man's
path, and if he will bat persevere till
the seventh time, he will he snre to
havo them at last. Persevere to the
end!?Morning Herald.
A Russian Peasant
A Russian was travelling from Tobolsk
to Beresow. On the road be
topped one night at the hat of and
Ostiak. In the morning, on continuing
ilia journey, be dis<H>vered that he had
ost his parse containing about one
tundred roubles.
Uhe son of the Ostiak found the
>urse while out a hunting, but instead
>f takeing it up Went and told bis father,
vbo was equally unwilling to tnch it,
ind ordered hifl son to cover it witb
ome bushes.
A few months otter this the Hussion
returned and stopped at the same hut,
but the Ostlak did not recognise him.
He related the loss he Jiad met with.
The OBtiak listened very attentively,
and when he had finishod, "You are
welcome," said he; uliere is my son
who wWl show you the spot where it
lips ; no hand lias touched it but the
one which covered it over, that vou
might recover what you have lost."
Robert Hall in afbiction.
Mr. Hall, after the death of one of
his children, appeared as nanal in his
pulpit on the following Sabbath, and.
under the influence of chastened and
holy feeling, addressed his congregation
from the lauguage of David alter
he had been deprived of his son: "I
shall go to him but he shall not return
to mo." Ho very properly remarked,
that while the child was living, but
doomed to die. the afflicted saint. fn?t
ed, prayed, and wept, if peradVenture
his days might still be prolonged ; but
when the event was decided, lie evinced
his fortitude and deep submission to
the will of heaven. lie arose from the
earth, changed his mourning attire,
and went up to the house of the Lord.
Tho ordinary custom of abstaining
from public worship was accommodating
ourselves to tho fals maxims of the
world, and injurious to our spiritual
interests. In a season of calamity,
whither should we go but to Him who
alone is able to sustain and comfort
us, and to the place where he has
promised to meet with us and bless us ?
Not at Home.
At a meeting of a Bible Society in
London, Mr. Dudley related that a
friend of his, who had subcribcd about
five dollars a year, and whose servants
had also become members of it. iuti
mated to him that he could uo longer
S've his support to such societies. On
sing asked the reason, he replied that
they ruiued his servants : he had had
one of tho best female servants in the
world; but recently, when he had wished
to bo denied to a person that called,
and he had desired her to sav he was
not at home, she told him she could
not say so: "Whv so ?" said he: '*1
have read in my Bible," she replied,
"and cannot tell a lie." Mr." Dudley,
however, on conversing with bis friend,
who was a man of sence, convinced
hiin that he was wrong in supposing
the Bible had ruined his servant, it
was far more probable that she who
was taught to tell lies for him, would
soon learn to tell lies to hiin. Ilis
friends, instead of withdrawing his
subscription, immediately doubled it.
A Wyoming Country Husband Sold
forJ$500.?The Cleveland Ptaindealer
tell tho following:
"A lady passed through here a few
day's since in hot pursuit of her husband,
who hod been smitten with a
smart attack of 'passional attraction,'
and had ran away witbr another woman
from Wyoming county New York'
to Loran county. She took a brace of
officers from this city, and wont to
Flyria. The gentleman snuffing the
approach of danger, lett his money with
his nephew to effect a diversion* with
the enemy, and took the cars for the
South. On reflection, he suspected the
honesty of his nephew, and took the
next train back to look for his money.
Ilere he encountered tho pursuing
party, and negotiations were opened,
it resulted in the lady's selling out all
her right, title and good will, in and
to her husband, and his purchasing a
dishonorable peace, for five hundred
dollars. The lady returned to Wyoming
without a husband, but with a
pocket full of rocks."
Tilk Redoubtablb Lola Montbs.?
The last San Francisco JYe%o* received
by the recent arrivals from California,
contains the following paragraph :
The Chronicle learns from a passenger
on tho What Cheer, from, Australia,
that LolaMontes had a stormy
passage from this port to Sidney. The lap
dogot Lola was at fault in some matter
' of etiquette, whon the mate gave him
a kick; Lola, seeing this rudeness, drew
her dagger, and attempted to stab the
officer. Her design was frustrated,
and she-took such a disgust that she
refused to livsfr* the caoiu, and to*!'
ud her Quarter in the ateareira at
Iter first appearance on the stage in
Sidney, there were only three or four
ladies present, but when site was called
ont, at the falling of the curtain, she
made a speech, ana rendered particular
thanks to the ladies for their patronage.
Kliza Embkrt, a yoting pariaian lady,
resolutely discarded a gentleman to
whom she was to have been married the
next day, because he redicnled religion
Having given him a gentle reproof for
some impropriety, he replied "that aj
man of die world would not be so oldfashioned
as to regard God and religion."
Eliza immediatly started ; bnt
soon recovering herself, said, "From
this moment, as I discover you do n&
respect religion, I cease to he yours.1*
