A New York correspondent to the Philadelphia -'Press" tells the Follow ing amusing story '? I never Found anything but once here in excess oF my expectation or even approaching them, ami that was the New York oysters. 1 had then just come on from California, where oysters arc very small and unimpor tant, not to aay insignificant, and I had often eat a hundred there at a time, and had always felt that I could eat more if 1 had them. So, when I arrived at the Metropolitan hotel I ordered my dinner to be served in my room, and told the waiter to bring with my dinner a strong cup of code. ' ami a hundred raw oysters. II?! look ? cd at me a moment, and then said: ??Did 1 understand you to say a hundred oysters." "Yes,"' I answered; ?'raw, on the half shell, with vinegar ; no lemons, ami as soon us you cau, for I am very hungry." "Ahem! Miss, did you want a ' hundred:" "Yes, 1 do. What are you wait ing for? Must I pay for them in ad vanccV I want largo, nice ones." ?'No, no, Miss. All right, you shall have them," and he went out I continued my writing and forgot all about my dinner till he. knocked ami came in with my dinner ou a tray, hut no oysters. "How is thisV" said I. "There are no oysters." "Dey's comin', M iss, dey's comin'," and the door opened and in Hied three more waiters, each with a big tray of oysters on tin- hit1.!'sind!. I was staggered, hut only for a moment, I saw the waiters wen grinning, so I calmly directed them to place out tray on a chair, one on tin- wash stand ami ou - on Ihr- heil, and said: "They arc very small, aren't the}*?" "Ob! no, Miss, de bery largest we'se got." "Very well," said I; "you can go. If I want any more I'll ring." When they got out into the hall one said to the other: "For heaven, Jo. if she cats all them oysters she's a dead woman." I ditl not feel hungry any longer. I drank my eotfee and looked at the oysters, every one of them as higas,: my hand, and they till seemed look ing at me with their horrible while faces and out of their one diabolical eye, until I could not have eaten one any more than I could have carved up a live baby. They jeered at me and seemed to dare mo to attack them. Our California oysters an- small ami with no more individual character about them than grains ot*rice, but these detestable creatures were in stict wdth evil intentions, and I dare not swallow one for fear of the dis turbance he might raise in my inter rior, so I set about getting rid of them, for I was never going to give up beaten before t hose waiters. 1 hung a dress over the keyhole after I had locked the door, and just outside my window I found a tin waterspout that had a small hole in it. 1 care fully enlarged it, and then slid every one id' those beastly creatures down one by one?one hundred and two of them?they all the time eyeing me with that cold, pastry look of maligi nity. When the hist, one was out of sight I stopped trembling and finish ed my dinner in peace,and then rang j for the waiters. You should have seen their faces! One of the waiters asked if I would have some more May he never know the internal pang he indicted upon me; but I replied calmly: "Not now. I think too many at once might be hurtful."

The Pol lowing story, says t lie Way Bide, is told of Jacob Ridgway, a wealthy citizen of Philadelphia, who died many years ago, leaving a for tune of six million dollars: 'Mr. Ridgway,1 said a youth with whom the young man was conversing, 'you are more-to he envied than any gentleman I know.' 'Why so?1 responded Mr. Ridgway; 'I um not aware of any cause for which I should bo particularly en vied.' 'What, sir!1 exclaimed the yunu man in astonishment. 'Why, ure you not n millionaire!' Think of the thousands your income brings you every monl h !' > 'Well, what of that?1 replied Mr. Ridgway. 'All I get out of it is my victuals and clothes, und I can't eat more than one man's allowance?, or wear u ore than one suit of clothes at n time. Pray, can't you do as much?1 'Ali. but." sjiid the youth, 'think of the bund red? of line houses you own and the amount of rental they bring you I1 'What better am I off for that?' re fplied the rich man. 'I can only live in one house at :i time; as for the 'money I receive for the rents, why, I lea n't eat i! or wear it; I can only use it to buy other houses for ot her people to live iu; they nrc the beneficiaries, not I.1 'Hut you can buy splendid furni ?ttirc :ind costly pictures, and line ?^arringes and horses?in fact, what vou desire." ?And alter I have bought them,1 'responded Mr. Ridgway. 'what then? I can only look at the furniture and biet ures. and the poorest man who is T5ot blind can do the same. I can ride no easier in a line carriage than you in an omnibus for live cents, with the trouble and attention to drivers, footmen and hostlers; and as to anything 1 desire, 1 can tell you, young man. that the less we desire in this world the happier we shall be. All my wealth cannot buy back my youth, cannot purchase exemption from sickness and pain, cannot pro cure me power to keep afar oil' the hour of death; ami then, what will all avail when, in n few short years at i^int, - I lie down in the grave-nndH leave it all forever? Young man, you have no cause to envy me.1 A LOVER'S REVENUE. When das. Lick, tin California millionaire, was a young man, he fell in h>vc with a miller's daughter in Pennsylvania. Young Lick faced the stern old miller and asked for the hand of his daughter. Now..lames was a poor young man. but honest and industrious, and withal full of pride. The man refused to grant James1 request, and adtiscd him not to marry until he hud a competency to support u wife. These remarks were rather humiliating to young Lick's pride, and with emphasis he replied: 'Sir, I shall see the day when your boasted mill would nol make :i respectable wheat bin lor one I shall own.' Years passed und James Lick erected in Santa Clara county, ('a!., a mill, t he wood work of which is .solid mahogany. Shortly after its erect ion he had photographs taken of the insids of his mill, und sent thorn to the miller who had re fused him the hand of his daughter. j Young man, when you see any thing you want, ask for it like a man. If you want to borrow $5 of a mau, or if you only want to marry his daugh ter, don't slide up to him and hung on to your hat ami talk politics and religion ami the weather, and tell old stule jokes, whereof you can't remember the point, until von worry t he old man into a nervous irritat ion. Go to him with it full head of steam on and your bow ports open, like an iron-clad pulling lor a shore battery. Snort and paw and shake your hen i. if you feel like it, no matter if it docs make him astonished. Retter aston ish him lluin Lore him. Go into his hear) or poeketbook, or both ? it amounts to the sanic thing?like a hrimllc bull with a curl in his for*' head charging a red merino dress, eyes on lire, tail up. and the dust living. Then you'll fetch him. Or. possibly, he may fetch yon. Hut nerer mind; you'll accomplish something, ami show thai you are nol afraid to speak what's on your mind. And that's a great deal iiioretl au you would accomplish by the other meth od. You needn't be cheeky, but you ought to be st might forward. Little Hobby came home with his new hut limp as a dish (doth. 'For goodness sake,1 cried his mother, 'where have you been?1 Hobby be gan to whimper, as he replied,'A fei ler threw my hat into the frog pond.' 'O Robby! you threw it iu yourself. I saw you do it.' 'Well,1 stud Robby contemptuously, 'ain't I a feller? LEARNING TO 8EW. To be bandy with the needleia one of the sterling accomplishments of every educated woman. To bo able Intake the "stitch in time," is worth nil the time and trouble that are re quired to learn the art. Like walk ing, reading and the many other things which wc come to do without special thought, the learning to sow is a slow process, and should he. be gun while the child is quite young. The girl should not only have the use of the thread, needles and patch work, but be instructed how to take the stitches, turn the corners and do the various things connected with needle work. We are not excluding the boys in our remarks, because they need to learn to thread a needle and do general sewing. Men arc some times no situated that they must de pend upon themselves for their neces sary sewing. Even if it is an age of sewing machines, it is best that all children should learn to use. the simple, common, old-fashioned kind, which can never be wholly supetved ed. The amusement ami occupation that sewing furnishes little folks afford sufficient reason why mothers should see that tlx ir girls, undboys too, learn to sew; but the voryprac tieal use of the needle in afterlife is the principal thing, after all. Work is no dishonor, and laziness is no credit to any one. It is good to have good wages; but half pay is bet ter than nothing, ami working for nothing is better than idleness and vice. There is no true manhood with out independence He whose indi viduality is swallowed up by fashions, lolly, or society, has lost that which he may never regain, and without which his life must he a va?" one. He who restrains himself from luxu ry may help others in necessity. He who helps others may look to God for help. Difficulties a re placed in our way t hat we may overcome them, an I pass through conflicts to vie tories, and through victories to triumphs. Pride gocH before destruc tion, but honor and nobleness and independence of soul are approved of | by God and profitable to mat". The world wants more sunshine in its disposition, in its business, in its charities, in its theology. For ten thousand of the todies and pains and irritations of nu n and women we re commend sunshine. It soothes better than morphine. It stimulates better than champagne. It is the liest plaster for a wound. The Good Sa maritan poured out into the fallen traveller** gash more of this tlutu of oil. Florence Nightingale used it on ! the Crimean battle-fields. Take it out into all the alleys, on board till the ships, by all the sick-beds. Not a vial full, not a cupful, hut a soul full, it is good for spleen, for liver com plaint, for neuralgia, for rheuma tism, for failing fortunes, for melan choly. Rev. Sam .Jones preached at Ebe nezcr Church, near Forsytb, every day and night last week until Fri day. Large crowds attended these meetings and were very much inter ested in Mr. Jones* preaching, lie calls certain members of the church honorary members, and says of them: They don't come to class meetings, they don't come to prayer meetings, they don't attend the Sunday schools, they don't add to the life of the church, they arc passengers on the gospel ship, they bear no burdens, adil no strength, their names are on our hooks.-but they are never with us in ( hutch, and I am fearful they will not be with us in that better land. Some of our readers well remember the abstraction of about$20,000 of State Hank bills from the office of Mayor .1. ('. Coit, early in the year, in Columbia, by a clerk, named Alex U. McLaughlin, in the employ of Mr. Coit, who was appointed to pass up on the validity of the bills. Mr. Mc Laughlin was promptly arrested on the charge and put in prison. Since his confinement be has been suffer ing from a complication of diseases and his life being dispaired of by his physicians the man was removed to his home in the city of Columbia last Saturday, where he died on the same eveuina*. A colored boy was killed in the colored church tit Hock Hill on Sun day night hist. The circumstances, as related are, that several boys were handling their pistols in the church, on the back scats, when one of the pistols was accidentally discharged, the contents entering the head of one of the boys, killing him instant ly. The excitement which ensued wtis intense and caused the disper sion of the congregation. A Detrot girl at a spelling bee sat down on "pantaloons." WATER. Some years agon ship Bailing Jo the South Atluntie, saw another mak* ing signals of distress. They bor? down toward the sufferers and hail ed them. 'What is the matter?' cried tb? captain, through his trumpet. We are dying for water,' was tho feeble response. 'Dip it up then!' shouted back tho astonished captain; 'you are in the mouth of the Amazon River/ And, sure enough, there thoso sail ors were, with parched lips and swol len tongues, supposing that there was nothing but the oceans brine around them, when they were in the mightest river in the globe, with three hund red miles of fresh water around them. Thus are we, poor thirsty souls, sailing on the boundless ocean of Gods love, heedless of the divine voice which saith, 'If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that snitb to thee, 'Give me to drink,'thou wouldst have asked of him, and ho would have giveu the living water.' A little gi.d, who was left in charge of the hou<*o by her mother with special warning ngainst going into a closet containing certain good things, wns found in the forbidden closet on the lady's return. Vexed at her daughter's disobedience, she asked her if Bhe knew who it was that tempted her to do wrong. 'It was Satan,' said the girl, 'Then you should have said, 'Get the behind mo Satan,' said the lady. 'So I did, moth er replied the girl, 'but then he push ed me into the press.' A certain old gentleman, very rich and still more stingy, is iu the habit of weariug his clothes to the last thread. One of his friends, meeting him, exclaimed: 'They toid me that, you bad a new hat, and I'll be hang ed if you haven't!' 'Oh, yes,'said the miser, looking as if he were a trifle ashamed of himself, *yon set* my wife kept telling me that the old one was a good deal worn out. Well, yesterday was my wife's birthday, and I got myself a new hat for her birthday present.' A schoolmaster endeavors to in still into the minds of his pupils tho great truth that you should always count 100 slowly before you speak, and if it is anything very important, I 500. He then takes his stand by tho stove, and after some minntes ob serves that the lips of all his scholars arc moving slowly and noiselessly. Presently and simultaneously they all break out: 'Four hundred and ninety-nine! Five huudred! Master, your court-tails are all on fire!'
