Dancing would h ail me into crowd ed rooms and late hours, which arc injurious to health and usefulness. Dancing would lend me into very i close contact with very pernicious ! company; and evil, communications oori iipt good tnnnners. Dancing Would require me to use and permit freedoms with the other j sex, of which I should he heartily ashamed, nnd which 1 believe to be I wrong. I ? ? I My parents ami friends would be anxious about nie if! were on I late, keeping company with they know no| whom. "Ministers and good people in nor- | al disapprove of dancing, and 1 think i it is not safe lo sei myself against j them. If a. thing be ever doubtful, ] wi.-h to he on tho safe side. Dancing has a bad name, and 1 mean to study things that are pure and lovely and of good report. Dancing is generally accompanied with drinking, and I sec drinking produces a great deal ?d'-cvil. I am told that dancing is a great temptation and snare to young men, find 1 do not wish to have anything to do with leading them astray. Dancing unfits the mind for serious reflection and prayer, and I mean lo do nothing that will estrange nit: from my Clod und Saviour. There ate plenty ofgrncefui ox< r - j ci'ies and cheerful amusements w hich have none of the objections connected with thorn that lie against dancing. Jtlukc s- ricmlM. Lifo is very critical. Any woid may be our last. Any farewell, even among glee and merriment, may he forever. If this truth Were but burn cd into cur consciousness,and i; rul ed as a deep conviction and powci in 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 wo carry in our hearts the miserable suspicions and jealousies that now so often embitter the fouu tain of our loves ? Would we be so impatient of the faults of others? Would we ullow trivia! misunder standings to build lip strong walls between us ami those who ought to stand very close to us ? Would we keep alive petty quarrels, year after year, which n manly word any day j would compose? Would we pass neighbors or old friends on the street without recognition, because ofsome real or fancied slight, some wounding of pride, or some ancient grudge? Or i would wo he so chary olour kind ! words, our commendations, our sympathy, our comfort, when wean hearts all about us ate breaking I i just such expressions o f interest or appreciation as we have it in our power lo give ? -?? ? ? ? Hon. Jeflerson Davis decline i t > deliver the lecture before ihc literary Society of Newberry, on account ol pressing engagements. Upon tin reception of the letter of M i. Davh declining, Gov. Simpson wrote to him again, expressing ibe earnest desire of South Carolinians lo do honor In the Chieftain of the "Lost t ause,'' w ho was made lo suffer ho much in their behalf, ami for their action. In response to this, Mr. Davis acknow ledges his appreciation lor the hind feeling tendered him, 1ml still refuses to accept ihc invitation on the same grounds given iu bis first reply, say ing that it would afford him noli mud ed pleas tiro to meet again with those ?who bad homued him in the past, and whose regard he highly valued, but compliance was impossible, many other invitations ol a simuiiar nattu ? having already been declined by him. Kvery man who has decision of character will have enemies. Duties fulfilled are always plea sures to memory. Subscribe to the Orangcburg Time?

"Why do girls elope?" is the very interesting query put by a con tempor ary. Well, there arc various rea sons, the principal ones being that the girls are displeased with the way their mothers do housework, and somo girls have an idea that they can sup port husbands. And a good many of them have to do it too.
