The General got off the np« train of the GVlton- viUe and Columbia Railroad Tuesday, the sect day, at Sahida Old TriVn, phd. died oVor the Siluda in d canoe to his 'llkntation in Edgefield, looked around and transacted business till Wednes day’s down-train, boarded it and was beek in Cohunbia that day. After aB this travel, amid sand flies and phos- phatet, and from the sea almost to tho Iteuntofoe, he looked as bright os a new pin, Smdf not a bit tired. He has a fine fartflr ia EdgcfieM coanty, opposite Sa luda Old Town, sr.d is a number-one farmer. Last year be grtthered and sold a large quantity of hay from it (hat al most equalled tho famous Northern timothy. He ia ahro a very Snoeessfifl stock rawer. He has forty-eight bogs tbnt will be reorty for making baeotf next winter, if none lx? stolen, and he doesn’t fcar.thh, as darkies haVe a way of not ste iling Bis hogs. In the matter of sheep raising ho is equally successful, fot out of one hundred that ho p seed ed Mr fan last year, only one has keen a dog, and that dog he had frottiftj kiBed. In his private bnsi- iie»,-a(rra puWie, he is one of tfie most ntetbodical and systematic of men, nev er allowing things to be done by halves, end this fact is ss well known by erory auditor sad treasurer hrlhe State as by the laborers otr his plantatftms. While thus atrict in businea* matters, there is trot a kinder nor more accomodating nma in tlrt Stkttf.'—fowler rtf ITrralei'. —:—. A Itoeiner Child. The steamer Cdlorndo, which arrived in this city on Tuesday last’, hod on board a passenger Who promises to cre ate a profound sensation here, not only among the medical fraternity, but among the public at large. It ia a*boy six yean of age, and the formation of his head and feet present the most remark able freak of nature, undoubtedly, that tfet world bar ever seen. His head is shaped exaeffly like that of a rooster With bill, comb, Wattles and feathers complete. It is os large as the head of an ordinary child of six years, and the feathers ex tend to the shoulders. The boy wears 3 jacket closely buttoned at the neck, «hW presents the appearance of a huge rooster clothed mtho garb of humanity. There is absolutely nothing about the heed to indicate that it is that of a hu man being, and it is as perfect a pro duction on e large scale of that qf a member of the barnyard tribe as it ia possible to imagine. The feet and low er limbs, from the knees down, are also those of a rooster, although they nte several sizes larger than even those of the largest Shanghai Ibwl. The hands are those of a human being perfectly formed, but abundantly large. Except the head, feet and lower limbs the child has a human development. During the trip up the river it waa accompanied by it* fatfter 4 and mother, and was kept in theit atate-moa,except when it was oc casionally taken on deck closely vailed for n breath of fresh air.—St. I/mls Times. Oil Taanelf a Little. Once there lived an old gentleman in a large bouse. He had servants and everything hie Wanted, jot he was not and when things did not go as 1 hq wished he was Very cVass. A t^last his servants left him, quite out of tem- pn 1 , he went to t neighbor with the story of his distress. seems to me,” said the neigHbor sagaciously, “’twould do wall enoiigii for you to oilyctanelf a little, my friends •‘ To oil myselfr’. "TW; I will explain. ' Some time ago one of the doom in my house creak ed. Nobody, tffeiefcre, liked to go in or out One day I oiled its binges, and it bos been constantly died by every body since.” “ Be you think, then, that I am likw a creaking door,” cried the old gentle man ; •' how do you want me to oil my- soff?” w Thst’s ad easy matter," said the neighbor. “ Go homo end engage a ser vant, and when he does right praise him.- If, WB ths oontrtry, he doessome thing ottlas, do tfot bo cross, oil your votee and your words With the oil of love Ths old gentlemen 1 wfent home, tnd no hafth or ugly words etere ever beard in the bouse sfterwardi.

Right in the centre stood atr anvil, a!nd upon it Iky a rod of red hot iron, ihto which a young focty was endeavoring to weld the link of a large log-chain. She wss a! blonde, her complexion being as fair as that of any petted belle of society, and the lovely tinge of pink and red which ever and anon spread over face and neck not only served to heighten her natural beauty,- but gave evidence of an excellent con stitution and of robust health. Her eyes were of a' beautiful dark brown, shaded by lovely feshes gf the same bite. Her Bps were red as coral, and hCr teeth' as firm and white as pearls. She was dressed in a very becoming attire of large Turkish pentagons' and loose blouse coat; her sleeves were rolled u^’ to the elbow, exhibiting a beautifully rounded white arm.

Josh Billings says : If anybody has bard work to please most people, it is an editor. If he omits anything, he is lazy. If he speaks of things as they are, peo ple get angfy. If he glosses things over or smooths down the rough points, bo is bribed. If he calls things by their proper nontes, he is declared unfit for his position. If he does not turnish his readers with joksi, he is a mullet. If he does, be is a rii(tie-head, lacking sta bility. If he indulges in pemortalities, he is a blackguard. If iVe dow not; his paper is dull and insipid. The King of Siam has a body guard of female warriors. It ia composed of four hundred girls, chosen from among the strongest and most handsome of all the ladies in ths land. At the age of thir teen they enter the service and remain in it until they are *wenty-firc, when they pass into the reserve. Their weap on is the lance. ^HE WEEKLY NEWS THE WEEKLY NEWS THE WEEKLY NEWS CONTAINS CONTAINS CONTAINS LIVE EDITORIALS!- LIVE EDITOR FA LS1 LIVE EDITORIALS f fHE LATEST TELEGRAMS!
