AN HUSH FA KM. Imagine ti lccl country, with few trees :iinl no fo rents, rut up into very irregular holds by Btone walls. It is of such land Quit Irish farms are composed. In juosi counties there is a great deal of boggy, swampy land, from which tin farmers cut peat, which serves them as fuel. An Irish farm is generally about as large as an ordinary village green of New York, or New England, say from live to lift ecu acres, j In some districts a latin often ucresds considered rather large, and it in'often the sole sup port of an iinmeji.se family ? father, mother, ten children, and. perhaps, an old grandmother. Huston cum mem contains forty eight acres of laud. It would make six good size Irish farms, which would maintain fifty or sixty human beings, half a do.'.en cows, a horse or two, some ilonktys and many pigs, besides paying ^dOO a year to the landlord, and something to t he priest. In good seasons nil this teeming and swarming life can?}ust be maintained. Ihn suppose a wrop fail! Suppose i he pea! cannot b<f drier! ! Then w hat ? W hy* hunger and starvation, of course. And, rein ein bei", there are no factories or Outer business to fall hack upon. I f t be crops,faiI. all fails. If the crops of Is .!W Fughiml should he as poor this year as they were in Ireland last year, jt would Im- a great calamity, but veiyldew- persons would go hungry on ftititjfCyOtint. The fisheries, the shops, the factories, eoinmeree and the savings banks would go on about as usual, and the people would-- lmv ' theft" food from other Slates. ' Irish farms do not nrl lie along a high road, as with us. Farms are behind farms; and a great number of '.hem can only be reached by a donkey path three or fourffeet w ide. All the work is done by hrtid. The fields are dug not plowed, have no im pled) and many farmers tits but a spade, a hoe and a turf cutler, and no vehich save a small donkey earl. The farm house is genevaHJjfPht story high, and very often consists of a single large room, with, perhaps, a recess for a lied. It is commonly built of stone, wi'ih a roof of thatch, but many of the houses ait' made of earth, with a hard lloor made of cement. In this one room the dairy work is done, and all t he family live, the pig coming in and going out as he pleases. Are the people then miserable and degraded? Uy no means. Whcntlie harvest is good and the rent reason able, i hey are among t he most cheer ful people in Kit rope, and, in all the world, there is no land where the women are more modest and pure. The children tire ruddy and robust. !'!:?? houses arc generally clean and neat; The people enjoy life so much upon those little, boggy farms, that when they emigrate t<? America or Australia they sometimes almost die of homesickness. In many inst anco.s a poor Irish girl among us never goes i o lied for six months after leaving home without crying a little for the (dd house of mild and thatch, and the old folks wit bin it.?Youth's ('ompanion. AN UXEXPKLTKH FASSUNG KU. Early yesterday morning the con ductor on the night train from Augus ta, on the South Carolina Railroad, was startled when near Craham's by heaiing the not unfamiliar sounds of an infants wailing proceeding from the interior of a large new market basket that had been quietly resting upon one of i he seats in ; he passenger conch for hours. An investigation revealed t he presence of a bouncing while boy baby, adjudged b\ compc icui persons io he about the age of three weeks. There was no owner for this luggage to be found, .and it was brought to the city and temporarily given in charge of n stewardess. The youngster w as well dressed and had with him the follow iug Idler of rceoiii inendul ioii. '?This child is of honest birth. Deal gently with him as you hope for nu r ey. lie has been christened Arthur \Y i II in in. (,*on tin ue so to call him."

Despotic pitpn declared that Brown should nol marry bis charming Knti ly?heiress to eight thousand a year unless he was wealthy. ?What is your fortune, sir?1 he ask ed, magisterially. 'Well, I don't exactly know.' said Brown, who was as poor us n church mouse; 'but let your daughter become my wife, und I promise that she shall have endless gold.' 'landlessgold is rather nil exagger ation, eh?1 remarked papa, rather surprisingly. '?Scarioiy in m\ ease,1 said Brown, 'as my wife and I. be as extravagant is we might, should never he ablu to ?rot through it.' 'Are von tell inn- me the truth?' ?The t ruth. I vow it !' ?Then take her. my boy." said papa, grasping Brown'? hand; "and happy um I that my child h:ts been saved from the clutches of fortune-hunters.' Well, they were married, and 15rown made the money lly tit such a rule that when his wife's milliner's bill came in he was obliged to eou fess himself stumped. .Mrs. Brown immediately sent for her papa. 'W bat's this?' said pupa. What do you mean, sir? Where's the end loss gold you promised, ehr' 'I've kept my promise,' answered Brown. 'I gave your daughter end lesss gold when I married her?a wod li tig-ring. And, my deal',' added Brown, turning to his wife. 'do.you think that both of us eon hi ever gel through anything which only just fits one of those taper fingers?' I'apn looked as if he was going to have a lit. but :t remark of bis daughter's averted the catastrophe. ?Well, pupa,' she said, "there's still on,- thing in our favour. No one can say that I've got an idiot.' So the storm blew over; and now Brown and his wife, though they do have to manage on eight thousand a \ear. are the happiest couples in t he two hemispheres. Still, the bride groom admits tbut hin was rubber, a risky experiment, AX OLD-FASHIONED (?IRL. She nourished thirty or forty years ago. She was a little girl until sin* was fifteen. She used to help her mother wash the dishes ami keep the kitchen tidy, and she had an ambi tion tu make pies so nicety that papa could not tell the dilibronee between hers sind niuinmu's and she could fry griddle-cakes at ten years of age and darn her own stockings before she was twelve, to say nothing of knitting them herself. She never said "I can't'" and "1 don't want to" to her mother when asked to leave her play, or run upstairs or down on an errand, because she bad not been brought up in that way. ()bediene?.' was a cnrdimil virtue in t he old fashioned girl. She rose ill the morning when she was lulled und went out into the garden and saw I lie dew on the grass, mi 1 if she lived in I he country she fed t lie chickens and hunted up the eggs for breakfast. W e do not suppose she hail her hnir in curl-papers, or crimping pins, or had it "hanged" over her fore head, and her Ihiiinces were no trouble to her. She learned to sew by making patch work, and w<- dare say she could do an "over and over" seam as will as nine tenths of (he grown up women do now a lays. The old-l'sishioned little girl did not grow into a young lady and talk about her beaux before she was in her teens, and was not fancying tl heroin every plow boy she met. She learned I ho solid accomplish ment!-: MS she grew up. She was (might the ait of cooking und house keeping. When she gol a husband she knew how to cook him a dinner. She did hoi think she knew as much as bei mother, mid that her judgment was as good us her grand mi it her's. And if there be an old-fashioned little girl in ihe world to-day, may heaven bless her, and keep her, and raise upol hers like her. 1'OLT .MOTTE. I low many memories surround I bis name. Here it was that Mrs. Uobce Ca .Motte gave her honte to the fittinPS for the love of her country and her patriotism, ami hen it was thai Isaac .Motte, her son, the colonel under .Moult l ie, t he hero of C lint lesion har bor, saw the light, und whose name is emblazoned on the stone of fame erected at White Point. Our blood coagulates at the sound of Fort Motte, fob A D. Clobdyvyn, a gentleman, a native if this historic spot, has been nominated for the olllce of Adjutant und Inspector General. Let the people sny.-?-Beaufort < 'r< -cent NO MORE LOTTERIES. Lotteries have mot their doom at last, and henceforth will be number ed ttmong the things that were. The Supreme Court of tlie United States has lately made a decision in refer ence to these gambling institutions that virtually abolishes thehi, and cuts away the last remaining props and supports that sustained thcim The court hold?, and very justly tooi we think, that although a lottery company tuny hold a charter from the State, it is henceforth void and of no effect, for the reason that the State has no authority to grant govern mental rights ton company, or bar gain away the police power of the State which involves the regulation of matters affecting the public health and morals. It is held that lotteries area species of gambling, and there fore evil in their influence, tending to disturb the cheeks and balances of m quiet, orderly and moral com munity. Their character and bear ing are evil and demoralizing, and at war w ith the best interests of society und government. The court says that contracts which the FedeTal ('(Institution protects arc those which relate to property rights, -which are broadly distinguished from govern mental rights, and that lotteries be long invariably to the latter class. The court also held that a Legisla ture, acting strictly within the scope of its authority and legitimate juris dietion. may, al its discretion, revoke a lottery charter, whether paid for or not. and that, too, without violating any of the rules and regulations re-. cognized a yd authorized by the letter or spirit of the Constitution of the L'nitcd States. This decision will probably settle this vexed question, and place it forever beyond the reach of further cavil or controversy. ADVERSITY. Adversity is the touch-stone of character. As some herbs need to bu crushed to give forth their sweetest odors, v(? some natures need to be tried by suffering to evoke the excel lence that is in.them, Hence, trinls often unmask virtues, and bring to light hidden graces, which otherwise would have remained obscure. Men apparently useless and pur poseless have, when placed in posi tions of dillieulty and responsibility, exhibited powers of character before unsuspected. Some of the greatest minds that have ever existed upon the Garth would never have made their rare gifts of benefit to others, had they not been drawn out und purified by adversity. The poets, whose sublime strains have cheered so many human hearts, have learned in sutferijig what they have taught in song< Hud their path in life been strewn with roses; had they been wafted onward by the fav oring gale of prosperity, the multi tudes would have missed those grand, inspiring words that have so helped them in a weary battle of life. Adversity generally comes when h ast expected. Whiie all strive to shun its visitf, few pass beyond its reach. Like the earthquake, its ap proach is without warning. If we are unable to avoid the financial crash which it firings, let us In the light of philosophy, draw from it needful lessons for the future. POISONOUS. Many boys are poisoning them selves by smoking the paper cigarette, and some by the use of cigars. No boy can grow up sound and vigorous who acquires this pernicious habit. The San Francisco Call, alluding elaborately to the evil now so preva lent, says : '"The system may be cleansed and purified, after having arrived at maturity, but the human structure cannot be set to growing again if development is arrested in the latter years of the growing period. Many boys do not know the conse quences of their habits, and others, with the disregard of future penalties peculiar to the boy period, do not care what the consequences may be so that their present pleasure is en hanced. There are but few boys, however, who would remain insen sible to appeals to their reason and to their pride in manhood. It is hot ter, as a rule, to convince a boy that the use of tobacco is injurious, than simply to convince him that physical chostisemeut will follow his being caught using it." A South Carolina planter, writing to a local paper, states that the whole cost of planting and cultivating an acre of cotton, ginning the product ?it'. I delivering it on a railroad, is about $11. The average yield per acre in the South is 101 pounds, so that tin'cost of raising it is about 5 $ cents.
