TO THE SOUTH.
The time to talk has passed away,
Now is the time to do, not say,
And every moment of delay
But binds our fetters faster.
The wrongs we have so long endured
By submission will ne'er be cured,
Tis fatal in sleep to be lured,
'Twill double each disaster.
Can freemen stand and be oppressed?
And see the enemy divest
Their States of power, peace and rest,
Without a single murmur?
And shall theii words all go for nought ?
Then is the South not what I thought,
She is a slave?if she is bought?
For what else can we term her ?
Every insult let her pocket,
Every warning let her mock it,
Until like a flying rocket.
The truth t ?o late rushes home ;
Then alas! is rain th' endeavor
These hei chains to loose or sever,
Then she will be tree?nete.r !
Can you say now " let this come ?"
Will you have your rights denied you?
"? i -L _ k:?.L ?
will you n:ive me uunn ucimr ;uUi
As you quaked when she defied you !
Then sit down and fold jour arms;
But God forbid this case to be !
And may my eyes :he South ne'er see,
When gone the brave, and lost the free !?
Southerners resent vour harms!

RERBEW DOOLrrrLE' S TRIP TO NEW
ORLEANS,
Or Measured for a Coffiu.
WRITTEN FOR TUB YANKEE BLADE BY PRES.
It will he recollected by many, that several
years ago, the merchants of New Oi leans had
great difficulty in getting and retaining, for any
desired length of time, suitable salesmen and
hook keepers, on account of the unhealthy na
ture of the climate in general, and the prevalence
of the yellow fever in particular. As the
most capable clerks were obtained from the
northern cities, the merchants held out great inducements,
and offered large salaries to tempt
young men to leave their homes in New England.
and enhance their fortunes by a sojourn
at the South.
Among those who 'run wild* with the idea
that they could obtain a competency in a few
years, in New Orleans, was one Reuben Doolittle,
who, after getting his courage up to the
sticking point, notwithstanding his great fear of
the yellow fever, left his father's farm in Vermont,
and set sail from Boston. As our story
is located in New Orleans, we will make a long
jump, and land at once with our hero in the
Crescent City.'
On arriving at New Orleans, Reuben took
lodgings at a hotel, where, as ho had been informed,
men of mercantile pursuits were in the
habit of meeting, from time to timp for the arrangement
of business matters with out-of-town
tradesmen, and where not a fewof them boarded.
After being comfortably roomed iu the j
fourth story, his first movements were, to put
himself into the 'purtiesl' trim his wardrobe and
taste would permit The painful operation of
shaving, and skinning with cold water, and Polor-Pinder
razor, being gone through with, and
? - - iii..
the after infliction ot a soap-suus 21011111011 01
the neck and face, completed, (during which
last performance, the principle part of the water
went running down his back, and the whole
of the soap was deposited in his eyes, causing
him t<> revolve in very unique gyrations about
the r?'On:,| lie drew forth the identical drab
pants, and swallow-tailed, brass-buttoned, blue
coat, w.iich had so excited the wonder and admiration
of the village beaux, when he wore
thorn for the first time, the Sunday prior to his
departure for the South, and which had cuused
the tailor, or rather the artiste, who had fashioned
them, to he over-whelmed and bewildered '
with business for the ensuing three months.? i
Wjth exceeding care and delicacy did he draw I
on, over his thin extremities, those delectabh
drabs; and when his toilette was completed
with great, pride did he crown the whole with
the incomparable blue coat.
'^iow, by gracious!' exclaimed Reuben, ex.
ultingly, 'my market is just as good as made
If any body wants to get a feller as will he an
honor to 'em, all they've got to do is to find out
where I board. If they want a smarter or genteeler
looking chap than I am, they'll probably
have to hunt around in some other district than
Ncati Orleans. Folks say that situations is as
plenty as moskeeters, 'specially for bright, intelectooal
young men like me. I 'spose the
trouble will be to make a choice?there's so
many chances, that one is sure to get faggled
to decide what sort of one to tike. Now I
ain't a ooitif? to he so derned nice about it?if a
- ? O" o
man offers me a situation in a Bank or Insurance
office, at a salary of, say abeottf two thousand
dollars, or a leetle over, I shall take it,
and make no more fuss about it, anyhow. But
I should prefer a clerkship in a Life Insurance
office, to do their writin' and cipherin' in a leetle
taller shape than they ever went anywhere,
for I think I should he safer there when theya/Jer
fever conies along. Any way, I'm in the
market, and I'm bound to make these Louisiany
folks know that if they want real cute, wideawake
chaps, Vermont's the place to find 'em.'
The above soliloquy was muttered, at short
intervals, by Reuben, during the time occupied
in dressing. This operation being finished just
as the dinner ffon<; sounded, he descended to
the dining hall, and took his seat at the table.
Never having before sat at a dinner in a first
class hotel, every thing he saw was a matter of
wonder and curiosity to him. The modus operandi
of the head waiter and his subordinates
?the number of courses and frequent changes
?the variety of dishes, and the unpronounceable
names given to them, threw him into a state
of astonishment, which nearly deprived him of
appetite.
After recovering from his bewilderment, he
applied himself manfully to the viands presented
him, and displayed a vigor in disposing of
them that bid fair to amply make up for lost
time. His peculiarity of maimer attracted the
attention of many and the ridiculous nature of
his questions arid orders, was soon observ ed by
fun-loving wags, who never lost an opportunity
of enjoying themselves at others' expense. In
Reuben they discovered a rich subject for a
'soicing' operation, and they determined that
not many hours should pass away before he
became the victim of the largest sort of circular.'
Half an hour<ifter dinner found our hero in
the bar-room, doing the agreeable with the 'mad
ones.' After asking them to take drinks and
cigars'all remind.' he had no hesitation in telling
tliein the object of his visit to New Orleans,
and his hope of getting immediate employment;
not forgetting to speak of his fear of the yalltr
fever.
They gravely assured him that, as to the
matter of obtaining business, there was not the
.. if.mlit All |,n I..id fn ltd to
cunuvv* y,i uuu?k. .... ....v x...,
btick for*a good price, and leave the employers
to draw lots to decide who should have him at
any rate. Hut when they spoke of the yellow
fever, they shook their heads, and looked ominous.
Strangers, tliev said, had a mighty poor
show, and among Vermonters it had been fata
in almost every case. ?
The latter part of these remarks frightened
Reuben almost out of his wits, which being observed
by the wags, who had long before discovered
his bug-bear, they went to work to pile
011 the horrible as fast as possible. One declared,
that never during the annals of New
Orleans, had the fever prevailed to such an
alarming and fatal extent, as at the then present
time; while another very seriously asserted
that there was no particular cause lor alarm, as
only tiro thousand had been buried the day before.
Every one of the initiated had his story
to tell, in which he painted the horrors of the
fearful malady in the most vivid colors. And
every narration was made in such a callous, offhand
maun- r, that Reuben quivered with terror.
While matters were at this point, a tnnn entered
the bar-room, with a quick, business-like
step, and proceeded at once to examine the
names in the hotel register, lie was accompanied
by an attendant, holding in his hand a
long wand, or measuring rod. Any one lookrig
sharply at these two men would have recognised
them as a couple of the wags, slightly
disguised. Having completed his examination
of the register, the first comer, turned to the
bar-keeper and said:
'I see you have but one arrival from the
North to-day?a Mr. Doolittle. Is he here?'
lieuhen, on hearing his name spoken, suspected
at once that the inquirer was some merchant
in search ol a clerk, lie forgot the fears
that had beset him hut a moment before, and
stepping briskly forward, announced himself as
Mr. Doolittle.
The following dialogue then ensued between
the two ; the answers being noted down on a
memorandum book, by the stranger.
'Mr. Doolittle, are you a native of the North?'
' *? I %?rnc? Karu in flin rifltd nf

Vermont.'
'How old are you ?'
'Twenty-six last corn husking.'
'Ever been sick ?'
'No, Sir ; never sick in my life?tough as a
knot?hearty as a buck?and can dew more
r ,1 ?i?i A'.I. ._l f
work in ;i nay man you ran siume a sura ai.
'Have you ever been in the habit of drinking
to excess V
'Never; I don't think business will ever be
put hack by my bad habits?cause 1 'aint got
any.'
'Well, sir, I think you are a pretty sure case.
Young, healthy, robust fellows like you, who
have never been sick, and are rigidly temperate
are usually picked oil' the quickest.'
'Yes; I knew I should suit you. You'll find
: ; me to be a right smart sort of a chap, that can
, turn my hand to anything. But, how about
i ! the price V
I 'Oil, we have a number of prices, according
j to the circumstances, or tastes of our friends.'
The questioner now spoke to his man with
i ; ihestafT, and said :?Measure him.'
; ! 'Measure me!' exclaimed Reuben, 'why, darn
I it all, I don't want an}' more clothes. Don't
i you see that this is a bran new coat, that I have
' --a - y>
i gut Oil liuw i
; | ' Yes, but this is to bo ?i different sort of gar;
ment?one peculiarly adapted to this climate.'
! j Reuben did not fully comprehend the meani
iug of this last piece of information, but quietly
allowed himselfto be 'measured,' which was
done by the attendant, holding the staff upright
, against Reuben's back, and after a moment's
pause, saying; 'Five foot, ten inches high, and
broad across the shoulders.'
This statement was noted down by the man
with the memorandum, who then looked Reuben
calmly in the face, and asked?
'How do you prefer to have it? A common,
pine one, or mahogany with a silves plate?'
'Mahogany .'?plate!? what ??gasped poor
Reuben.
'Your Coff.fi, sir.'
'Coffin!?oh Lord !?almost shrieked Reuben,
as he sunk, limp like a wet towel into a
I chair.
'I beg your pardon, Mr. Doolittle,' said the j
! tormentor?'I fear I have bee:i too abrupt. But j
in business matters, we should never stand too ,
much on ceremonies. In my capacity as head J
supervisor of funerals, it is necessary that I:
should attend to these little matters somewhat
in advance, and by so doing, save a great deal
of confusion and hurry. Now, at the end of j
about three weeks, we shall call for you, and? I
Reuben heard no more, but made a rush to-1
wards the landlord, and frantically begged to 1
know 'what time the next boat left for up-river.'
On being informed, he hurried to his room to
pack his baggage, muttering to himself as he
went? 'That 1 should ever have been such a
darned, eternal, everlasting fool, as to come to
Ncan Orleans to be measured for a coffin.
Several persons who had been present in the
| bar-room, during ttie scene described, were ia- |
1 ken to bed in convulsions?and a small boy
was busy, with a basket, the next morning,
picking up buttons from off the floor.

To My Old Friends in Kershaw.
HAVING paid particular attention to the growth
of different kinds of new cotton seed for the
iast four years. I became so convinced of the superiority
ot some of them to the gulf cotton, that I
bought last fall every seed with which my crop is
planted and am fully satisfied that I shall be handsomely
paid for so -'oirig. I have the Front. Bannana,
Pomegranate,Harris, and golden chaff. This
year 1 think the golden chaff and Pomegranate,
are doing best of a wet year, and on fresh land
the Harris cotton will or has made more than any
other.
If any of my acquaintances should feel disposed *
to try them I will forward any reasonable amount
to Charleston, neatly put up in strong sacks at
one dollar per bushel and "this is what I paid here
for all but the golden chaff, for these I paid #5
pur bushel. The expense to Charleston cannot
he more than one dollar more* in other, words,
I will deliver any reasonable amount of the
seed in Charleston at ?2 per bushel. Any one
sending an order 6hallhave the seed of the kind
ordered. I would remark however, that I have
no great many of the golden chaff to spare, as I
purpose planting largely of thptn, this is an early
cotton with very extended branches even to the
top. The golden chaff seed commanded $5 per
bushel here last year.

V of the 22d inst.,(si.\ miles south of Lancaster
Court House on the Camden road) a negro man
named John,about six feet six inches high, with
a scar on his face, (near his eye) occasioned by
the kick of a horse, he is black, carried off with

was about purchasing from nie. The negroes
were recently purchased by me in the city of Baltimore.
