That Dam Roaring.
A young buck, went to see the
daughter of n Presbyterian elder lately
wltoae house was near a mill-dam.
Xt being the spring of tho year, the
waters made considerable of a roar as
they tumbled over the dam. The
modest young gentleman tapped lightly
ttt tho door at first and received no
answer. lie tapped again?still no
answer. Again and again ho repeated
his knock, but still ho was nnbeard.
Mustering tip courage, he proceeded
to inilict some severe thumps on the
door, which brought the staid old gentleman
out.
"I suppose," said the youngster, who
had by tiiis timo become slightly savage,
from bemg compelled to wait so
long {**1 suppose you could not hear
llie knocking for tun dam mucino> "
? o ?r **" '"o*
"The <&>//? roaring: What do yon
moan air? How daro yon speak in
that way said the divine, some-what
angered at hearing the young man
** swear in his presence A
menu to say, sir, that t suppose
you cyuld not hear my kuoekiug ou
account ot tlie dam roaring.1' t J
"I>am roaring, again I You young
scoundrel I Have you the impudonce
ty llHrtlt mo with a repetition of those
>vords ( Begone, sir?' <
lAfy dear sir,'' quoth the now he
wUiIerod youth, "I intended to say that
1 presumed I could not be heard oil
account of tho 4idain Soaring," laying
particular emphasis ou the last two
words.
"Insult oil insult !* shouted tho infuriated
man, ami he rushed at the

.. i ,'|11.-JLL1 ?'L-l, .,.' . - I ,
|>ooi*Jtoll<ritr with the evident intention
of ejecting him, bat was restrained by
the voice of id* daughter, exclaiming %
?"Pappa, I suppose the yoang man i
intended to Bay that he conld not be J
heard on ucduuut of the roarihg of ?
the dam." fi
"Oh?I beg your pardon, sir-?I beg J
your pardon?walk in, walk in, really J
?ah, well, I declare! The dam roar- ti
ingl Capital i Come in ccnae in..?
That is really top rich ?" .
It is needless to add that the yotmg E
ster went in, and in the excellent soci- 4
etv of the yonng lady, soon forgot the
"dam roaring."
A tall, green sort of a well dressed l
fellow walked into n Broadway saloon
the other day, where they were talking
politics upon a high key, and ^
stretching himself up to bis full height ?
exclaimed, in ft loud voice: v
"Where are the Democrats f Show T
me a Democrat, gentleman, and 111
show you a liar!" E
In ftn instant a man stood before the *
noisy inquirer, in a war like attitude, ?
nnd exclaimed; m
"I am a Democrat, sir !" h
"You are?" J5
I "Yes, sir I am!" ?
' "Well, just step jround the corner h
with me, and PI snow you a feller who ei
said I conkPnt find a Democrat in the
ward! A n't he 'a liar,'I should like fi
to know 1"

Lightning Conductors.
rpHE subscriber has pnrchsued the Right of
X. putting up the above description of Lightning
Rods in Greenville District, and is prepared
to execute orders for the same to any extent end
with promptness and despatch. Theae Rods are
conducted upon Scientific principles, and afford
the only method yet discovered of absolute protection
against lightning. Any one acquainted
with the laws of electricity, will be immediately
convinced of their utility, upon examining them.
Their value has been tested by experience and
science, and has been vouched bv hundreds of
certificates from all parts of the Union. From
| aruoDgM. uieae me louowing oniy are submitted.
'1 have carefully examined Otis' insulated
Lightning Conductor, and have it attached to the
building m which I reside. It is better eon*
tructed, and more securely insulated, than any
lorm of Lightning Rods I have seen. It is neat
and cheap, and if properly attached to the buildlug,
cannot fail to afford security against the
loss of life ana proj>erty by electrioity I therefore
recommend it as worthy of the confidence
> of the community, R. F. Dmumbt.
i I'rof. of Chemistry, Ac., in S. G. College."
? Mr. D. O. Wsstfield has recently supplied my
- house with Otis' improved Conductor. I have
examined them with great oare, and am convini
eed that they are the beat Lightning Rods ever
i constructed. The methods of attraction and inl
miction are new, and seem to ms to be perfect
t I can confidently recommend them to all persons
wishing to secure their houses against lightning.
