Von will op.t acquainted with them; al the pic nie." [to Iii: conti su kd.] A [Lady's Reason for * oi Dancing;. Dancing would h ad me into crowd ed rooms ai d late hours, which arc injurious t<> health and usefulness. Dancing would lead me into very cloie contact wilh very pernicious company; and evil communications j corrupt good manners. Dancing Would require nie to use j and permit freedoms with the other ; sex, of which 1 should be heartily j ashamed, and which 1 believe to be [ wrong. My parents and friends would be anxious about nie if I were out laic, keeping company wilh they know noi whom. Ministers and good people In g1 nor al disapprove of dam ing, :tn<l 1 think j it is not safe to sei my sei I against j them. If a thing he over doubtful, i I wish to be on the safe side. Dancing Iui3 a bad name,and 1 mean to study things I lint are pure and lovely and of good report. Dancing is generally necoinpanh d with drinking, and I see drinking produces a great deal of-evil. I am told that dancing is a great tcmplnt iotl and snare to young men, and 1 do not wish to have anything to do wilh leading them astray. Dancing unfits ihc mind for serious reflection and prayer, and 1 mean lo do nothing that will estrange mi: from my (Jod and Saviour. There me plenty of graceful rxi r ci'jcs and cheerful amusements which have- none of the objections connected with thorn that lie against darn ing. Malte r riemis. Life is very critical. Any vvoid may be our last. Any farewell, even among glee and incirini nt, may be forever. If this truth were but burn cd into cur cohsciotisntss.and i; rul ed as a deep conviction and powci iu our lives, would it not give a new meaning to all our human relation ship? Would it not make us far more tender than we sometimes are? Would it not oftentimes put a rein upon our rash and impetuous speech ? Would we carry in our hearts the ?miserable suspicions and joilotlsies ?that now so often embitter the foun tain of our loves? Would we be so impatient of the faults of others? Would \vc allow trivial misunder standings to build up strong walls between us and I hose who ought '.o stand very close to us? Would we keep alive petty quarrels, year after year, which a manly word any day would compose? Would we piss neighbors or old friends nil the street without recognition, because of some real or fancied slight, some wounding of pride, or some ancient grudge ? Or j would we be so chary id mir kind ! wolds, our commendations, our j sympathy, oar comfort, when weary hearts all about us are breaking for just such expressions of interest or appreciation as We have, it in our power lo give ? ? ? . ? Hon. Jefferson Davis decline i i i ?deliver the lecture before ihe literary Society of Newberry, on account of pressing engagements. Upon the reception id' (he letter of Ali. Davis declining, Gov. Simpson wrote to him again, expressing the earnest desire of South Carolinians to do honor to tiie Chieftain of (he "Lo t Cause,'' who was made to stiller so much in their behalf, und for their action. In response to ibis, Mr. Davis acknow ledges h's appreciation lor the kind feeling tendered him, hut still refuses to accept the invitation on lbesinne grounds given in his first reply, say ing that iL would afford him iinb ?und i'd pleasure to meet again with those who had honored him in (he past, and whose regard he highly valued, but compliance was impossible, many other invitations ol a simnliur natu.e having already been declined by him Every man who has decision ol character will have enemies.
