Th? South wind breathes, and lo ! ye throng This rugged land of ours ; Methinks tho pale blue clouds of Mny Drop down and luru to flower* !

You fill mc witU your beauty. And you aro like tho eves I lote, So modest and so tender. Just touched with morning's glorious light, And evening'sgentle splendor. Long may the heavens give you rain. *uv nuu oiiiiico no varceovo, Long may the little girl I love Entwine you in her tresses ! The Dearest Spot on Earth. The dearest spot on earth lo me. Is home, sweet home ; The fairy land I've longed tosee. Is home, sweet home ; There how charmed the aen6P. of hearing, There where hearts are no endearing ; All the world is not so cheering As home, sweet home. I've taught, my heart the way to prize ; My home, sweet homo ; I've learned to look with lover's eyes, On home, sweet home ; There where vows nre truly plighted, There where hearts nre so miitod, All the world besides I' ve slighted, For home, sweet home. ^ [/ Vow the Memphit Appeal.J Who Welcomes a Sabbath Morning.

The London Star, received hv the last steamer, describes the following singular exhibition ot' "woman's rights A most painful aceno occured at Hartford on tuesday,the 18th. Towards the close of the proceedings of the llartfordsliire election, just after Sir Edward liulwer bad concluded his address with a fervant tribute < of admiration to the womanly beauty exhibited in the long of open carriages, chaises and vans drawn uu in front of the husiin?*s. o ? there was an unwonted stir in the crowd < which parted to admit of the passage of a hired brougham from one of the town inns. The carriage having stopped, two ladies 1 alighted, one of them an extremely hand some woman of about forty-6ve years of age, with fresh complexion, and eyes of 1 dazzling beauty. Tbo lady, who was evidently laboring i under excitement which exercised all her I powers to control, advanced as nearly as I she could through the crowd toward the i hustings, aud announced herself as the wife I of the Right Hon. Sir E. B. Lytton, stating ] that she had come according to a promise made by her husband; and to expose the wrongs which she 6uid he had inflicted up on her, and which she had described in her works and in .1 pamphlet published by her. The appearance of the lady was not unexpected, as her corning bad been anuoun- 1 ced in bills ami placards: but owing to a deception which had been practiced upon her by some persons in the town, who had introduced themselves to her, she was detained in the town while the election was proceeding in the vincinity. Those in the secret anticipated that she would not discover the mistake until the proceedings were over, and that her design would be thus frustrated. It was nearly so. Recognized as soon as she seen, her voice was nearly j j 1 *1 1 ov. r 1 uiuwneu uy me huouui 01 oir iMiwara 8 suppoiters ; but Sir Edward's eye caught her's, aud his face paled, lie looked like a man suddenly attacked by paralysis. Those near him say he trembled exceedingly. For a few moments he retained Lis position in front of the hustings, but turned his back on the unwelcome visitor. Then he suddenly disappeared below the hunstings platform, while bis wife cried "coward !" and he, having hastily signed the usual declaratiou, escaped into the residence of the gentleman on whose grounds the election took place. Lady Lytton continued to nddress the audience assembled for more than a quarter of an hour, repeating her statements in her pnmphlet, and asserting ber intention to confront her husband on every possible occasion until she compelled him to redress linr U'rntwra TTjir ,.v. ?? viipUt AAVI iuujoni|/ OUUOClJUCUilJ imiilc an application to the Mayor for the [im pose oY making a public statement; bul ibis being refused her, ehe left the town early in the afternoon.

In the child, the maiden, the wife, the mother religion, shines with a holy benignant beauty of its own, which nothing on earth can mar. Never yet was female character perfect without the steady faith of piety. Beauty, intellect, wealth ! they are all like pitfall*, dnrk in the brightest day, unless religion throws her soft beams upon them to purity and exalt, making twice glorious that which seemed nil loveliness before. Religion is very beuutiful, in health or sickness in wealth or poverty. We cao never enter the sick chamber of the good, but soft music seems to float on the air, and the burden of their song is. "Loj peace is here." .Could we lock into the thousand of fam? . 'ilies to day when discontent fights sullenly ' with life, we should find the chief cause of unhappiness, want of religion in woman.

The following anecdote is told in a French journal: "In a house in the quarter of the Invalids at Paii?, a popular celebrity has just died. Belonging to one of the most illustrious families of English aristocracy,' Lady???, after having, by the beauty i and charms of her intellect, rendered the salons of the fun-loving Saint German brilliant for several years, abandoned society to give herself up to all the disorders of an excess rare among well educated women. She drank to excess absinthe and brandy, and it was in the lowest taverns where she desired to indulge in her favorito dissipation. nc?u- e - . . ? - oiiu wjis irequeuuy 10 uo seen, ai nigm, outside the barriers, at tbo spirit shops of the llalles, at the Placo Maubert, or in tho quartier Mouffelard, amongst the chiffonniers. The habitual guests of the place which she frequented, designated her under the sobriquet of the Marchioness of Saint Pochard. Always dressed in tho newest fashions, she preserved ainonu tho tippleis who intoxicated themselves in her company, j and at her expense, an air of dignity sulii- i ciently imposing for them to respect her. j However, very often the excitement of her j intellectual faculties produced by an exces- , sive indulgence in spiritous liquors, had | hurried her into acts of eccentricity which-j resulted in her being arrested. She had ; passed more than one night in the lock up of the Halle. She was lliero on llio 'JSlli uf Jiebruary, 1S58. '"Her family watched over her, but only to pay her n considerable pension, for in j virtue of tlio principle of English liberty j that every one has a right to conduct him- j self as ho like?, they did not interfere with her tastes. "One day, or rather one night, in :i pothouse in the Halle, she met a student of twenty, braying also over absinthe; he sang the song of 13eranger of which the refrain runs?

Gen. Quitman at Chapultepec. During the operations before the city of Mexico, Gen. Quitman continued high in the confidence of Gen. Scott, and was appointed by him to posts of distinction on several occasions. At Ch?pull?peo he led in person the assault oti the batteries on t (he south 6ide, at tho foot of the hill, and afterward continued his victorious cource alonij the Tacubnya cause way to tho city. In this gallant enterprise there was a gener- j ous emulation between his division and that j of Gen. Worth, which was also advancing i towards the city along the San Cosmc cause- j way. During the early part of the night, the advancc continued, the head of both columns sending their flashes of sulphurous light across tbe plain. One hour and twenty minutes past midnight, the Garita i of lielen was gained. Quitman immediate-1 Iv mounted unnn n nnrtmn nf tho w?.ll on<l I - "r"-; ~ I * ? ?? | waving a rifle with a handkerchief attached : to it ase ting, called upon those around . him to mark the hour and to note the position of the head of Worth's column, which was still some hundreds of yards from the Garita of San Cosme. Here the battle lulled for a time, while the exhausted troops were ordered to lie j down on their arms for a few hours' lepose. j Sending an aid to Gen. Scott his position, j Quitman, in company with Major Beauregard, of the Engineers, procoed to select po- | sitions and throw up batteries against the citadel, which was immediately in front of them. After some time the aid-de-cninp returned, and Quitman anxiously inquired: "What news from head quarters 3" "Every one says that you will not be able to hold the position," replied the aiddc-camp, "and that vou will have to fall ! buck." ' "But what did General Scott say ?" hastily demanded Quitman. "Did be send me any orders ?" "General Scott said, sir, that ho would not embarass you with orders." "I thank General Scott for this. Then, gentlemen, we will bold the position," said General Quitman, "and go to the National Pulacc." And be did bold it; and at V o'clock, that morning, be hoisted tbo American Hag on the National Palace in the city. He was thus the first to enter the canital. ns be had been the first iu Monterey. Disease Among the Cattle. This disease, whose ravages have been worse perhaps in Florida than nny where else, which exists to some extent in all sections, still continues among the stock in this county, and is becoming more general and moro fata). There are various opinions as to the character of the malady. Some think, and that too from closo examination, that the"3isease which seems to bo making universal sweep of the deer, is not the black tongue, but a sort of v murj-ain. It is said also, that although among the cattle, the majority of cases are black or spro tongue yet murrain exists amtfng them also. We UBte do doubt but this is the true state of tbe case, although we have no direct knowledge on the subject. We might have bad tbia knowledge but for an. untoward incident which happened to us a few mot'nings since. A faithful old servant gave information |hata fipe cow belonging tons was affected, and-gave it a* his opinion that it was murrain and not the black tongue, although her month seemed to be b sore. He asked as tot go down and examine the beast, *bteb we accordingly proceeded to do.?We wont ipto tbe pen, and ."Jong by the side of tbe cow.jBivin^Sf oasnal scrunity as-we passed, intending to make a ataod id (rtfrtt Wore her 4Wt!,*ir'$p her heaj, bokjti *UiUjat^ for self to the air, looking mora astonished llinn angry.?The old servant was at tlio other side of the pen, with one hand on the fence and the other on his bowels, bent almost to the ground in a fit of laughter. Straightening himself lip and gathering breath he exclaimed : "My Lord, master, you aint gittin1 old yit," and ho bowed himself in acachinatory paroxism. Not seeing anything particularly funny in the transaction oursolf, and feeling indisposed to pursue our investigations in regard to the cattlo epidemic we left the place. If it should bo our misfortune to lose anv nioro of our stock, we would ns soon lose that cow as nnv olli'-r. Thoma&villc Reporter.

On our return homeward, we stopped at the Greenville Manufacturing Company, now under the control of Mr, Robert GreenHeld. This establishment was puL in operation many years since by the late Col.

Greenville Patriot. Jim had road the well-known storv of George Washington's love of truth, ami the father's love of the nohle principle of his son, so well manifested on the occasion referred to, of George's cutting down the cherry tree, acknowledging his transgression, and receiving a full and free pardon, besides praises and kind caresses from his father. So Jim, actuated by the noble example. supplied himself with a hatchet, and going into his father's orchard cut down some choice trees, lie then coolly sat down to await the old man's coming, and, a1* soon as he made his aupearance, marched up to him with a very important air and acknowledged the deed, expect ing the next thing on the programme to ho tears, benediction and embrace* from the o (Tended parent. l>?t, sad to relate, instead of (his, the old gentleman caught up a hickory and gavo him an "all-fired lamming." Jim was no Washington ! Out-Door Sports and Pastimes.? With pride and.pleasure wo note the rapid growing taslu for all descriptions of livtilih invigorating ont-door sports. Onr columns arc replete with the detail* of base-ball cluhs, cricketing, rowing, yachting, fishing, 6hooting, and other pastimes which give vigor to the frame, brilliancy to lite eye, nervous energy to the brain, aud the glow of health to the check. Our warm and hearty advocacy of all descriptions of out-door amusements is well known, and wo rojoico in the success which has attended the efforts of ourselves and others in directing attention to the absolute necessity of participating in manly out-door pastimes, unless we desire to become a sickly and effete race, and in constitution the reverse of our robust English cousins. Go on mid prosper with your baseball and cricket clubs, your vowing matches and yacht races, and every pport that compels exercise in the free and open air, and rely upon the cordial support of Porier's Spirit. Porters Spirit of the Times. A Woman's Growth is Beauty.?If woman could only believ it, there is a wonderful beauty, even in growing old. The charm of expression arising from softened temper or ripened intellect, often amply atones for the loss of form and coloring ; and consequently, to those who never could boast either of these latter years give much more than they takeaway. A sensitive person often requires half a lifetime to get thoroughly used to this corporeal machine, to attain a wholesome indifference, both to its defects and nerfections. and to learn, nt loncf u?lmf nobody would acquire fromjnv teacher but experience, that is the minu which is of any consequence; that with a good temper, sincerity, and a moderate stock of brains?or even the former only?any sort of body can, in time, be made usoful, respectable, and agreeable, as travoling dress for the soul. Many a ono who was absolutely 1>laiu in youth, thus grows pleasnntand well ooking-in declining years. You will hardly ever find anybody, not ugly in mind, who is repulsively "ugly in person after middle life. Nakkd Truth.?The late eccentric John Holmes useiTfrebuentlv. in his addresses to different juries, to explain the meaning of the phrase 'na^td truth,' by relating the following fable ': ,' .'Truth and Falsehood traveling one warm day, met.at a river, nnd both went.to bathe at'the same place*,Falsehood coming first out of the water, took his companion's cloth#, arid toft' bir^wn vilo raiment, agd then went on bWway.
