Mt jfhfrtnj. Song of an American Editor. I'm of the Press! I’na of the Press! My throne a simple chair; I esk ho other majesty 1 Than strikes the gazer there' The horse of fire obeys my nod ; My couriers walk the sea; The lightnings lift tlicir flaming manes And arts command for me. I’m of the Press! I’m of the Press! Do mounrehs wear the crown I I Waft my pen across the page, And crowns have tumbled down, Sue clouds float on—the r ations strive; Without the thunder rolls— Within, I brood the quiet thought That changes all the sonls. Pin of the Press! I’m of the Press! The Dead around me throng. Their awful voices whisper “Truth” Their eyes forbid tlie “ Wrong !’’ From them I gather joy nod strength, Nor heed pale Error’s purse— My faith in (lot! large ns the arch He gave his Universe. I’m of the Press ! I’m of the Press! My host, embattled types; With them I quell that tyrant’s horde, And rear the stnrs and stripes, I give my hand to all my race ; My altar Freedom’s sod; 1 say my say and bend my knee Alone, alone to God. Ever Speak in Tones of Kindness. Ever speak in tones of kindness To tlie sad and weary heart, Never let an unkind answer Cause the bitter tears to start; For how many spirits broken,— Crushed beneath a world of care. Have been cheer’d by kind words spoken, dtehecr'd their weary load to bear. Nano the human soul can fathom, None its mysteries explore; ii.' a wonderful creation Launched on Time's eventful shore; And while earth its wings shall trammel, Few the pages we may read, T>ut in glory we may view it, Wncu from mortal vesture froed. Like an instrument of music, It is delicately strung; Then ne’er let a note of sorrow From its tender chords be wrung • Hut may gentle words awaken Sounds of joy, and peace, and love, Such as angel choirs are breathing. Iu the courts of light above, 31ion e’er speak iu tones of kindness To the sorrow stricken heart, And ne’er let a word or action Cause the bitter ♦ear to start; For bow many spirits broken,— Bound beneath a load of care. Have been cheer’d by kind words spoken,' •Cheor'd their daily cross to bear. ‘Brief 3faiB. VARIETYi THE SPICE OF LIFE!’ Quarrels would never last long if the iault was all on one side. According to Lacon, men will wrangle for religion ; write for it; fight for it; any thing but—live for it. Let your expenses be such a? to leave a balance in your pocket. Ready money is a friend in need. Say but little—think much—and do more. Keep clear of the' law; for, even if you gain your case, you are generally a loser of money. A sentimental chap in Rhode Island intends to petition Congress for an ap propriation to improve the channels of affection, so that henceforth the “course of true love may run smooth.” An editor observes that “It is a solemn thing to be married,’' but how much more solemn it is not to be. A printer says that compositors have a right to complain of dullness, for their business is always at a stand. Some malicious person assdrts that the letters M. D. which are placed after physicians’nnnics,signify, Money down.’ Our Bob says they mean ‘Man Destroy er.’ A good old Quaker Indy, after lis tening to the extravagant yarns of a storekeeper, as long as her patience would allow, said to him : * Friend II. what a pity it is that it is n sin to lie, when it seems so necessary’ in thy business!’ Never be dependent- Eat your crust honestly earned. Look tho world in the face ; smile nt its frowns and laugh at its malice. Use energy. Strive and still strive, and if all is lost strive again. Never say die. .A. genius, who deserves to be rjnked ns rpublic benetactor, has discovered a proce- s for converting old topers into cartridge boxes Their superiority for this purpose consists in their being always dry. * An Insinuation —A late number of l>i Indiana paper announced the des J l ............ |n^n.i niiumuuicu [IIC U€S- ,— O"! tilViUlusiaUVCS, u action of the editor’s hat; whereupon ®=hingon_tbe Sabbath; but if they did, a fieighboring journal expresses the hone b !J“ u means to bring home the fish. that there were not, many lives lost T,, « U ' ,M ' L’ijj.i/I * !•» —.

I should like to learn it:” “Well, yes—I know very well how to cure them; but the trouble with me just now, is to find out a way to pro cure them.” A German family in New York were recently poisoned by eating raw bacon ham. Two of them, Wm. Wise and wife, are dead, and the third person, also an adult, is not expected to recover. Hams are not unfrequently poisoned by the means employed to preserve them, but the poison is drawn out in the act of boiling—this mode of cooking them, then, is regarded the safest. GP“‘Hal, where was your minister’s text yesterday afternoon !’ •Oh, I don’t recollect the place, but the words were, ‘sleep on now and take your rest.’ ‘What did he make out of that, Hal?’ ‘Don’t know, faith—but he was con tinually telling us* that the truth is always practical; so thinks I to myself I’ll take you at your word ouce, and may I be shot if I waked up till the Amen!’ A Misnomer.—“What are you?” asked a railway passenger of an ob trusive official. “ The Conductor.”-— *‘ What’s your name ?” “ Wood.”— •* Pooh !’' exclaimed the querist, “ that cannot be : Wood is a non-conductor.” Sharp Rebuke.—“ I never go to church,” said a country tradesman to his parish clergyman, “I always spend Sun day in settling accounts.” The minister immediately replied. *• You will find, sir, that the day of Judgment will be spent the same manne' - ,” “Turnabout is Fair Play.”— In the Ilornellsville (N. Y.) Tribune a husband advertised his wife as having deserted him, to which she replied the week subsequently by an advertisement, cautioning all persons from harboring or trusting her husband, as she would pay no debt of his contracting. A Tender Compliment.—A Wes tern editor in speaking of a concert singer, says her voice is as tender as a three shilling shirt. Pat and Cuff.-—“ An Cuff, will ye be afther tripping us a little bit of a song this cold mornin ’?’ exclaimed a son of tbeEmerald Isle to a brother of the sa ble race, a colaborer in the division and subdivision of wood. “ Golly, ma6sa, I can’t sing!” “ Can’t sing ? An’ what’s yer leg stuck in the middle of yer fut, like a bird’s, if ye can’t sing ?” ‘Thomas, of what fruit is cider made?’ ‘ Don’t know, sir ?’ ‘ Why, what a stupid boy ! What did you get when you robbed farmer Jones’ orchard V ‘1 got a darned good licking, sir!’ “Come out here, and I’ll lick the whole of you,” as the boy said when he saw a jar full of sugar sticks in the shop window. “It is affirmed by scientific gentle men,” says the Boston Post, “that the pressure of the times, if it could be used as a propelling power, would force a vessel across the Atlantic in twenty four hours.” It is said to have been satisfactorily demonstrated that every time a wife scolds her husband, she adds a new wrinkle to her face ! It is thought that the{announcement*of this fact will have a most salutary effect, especially as it is understood that every time a wife smiles on her husband it will the old wrinkles! remove one o: “l don’t like to patronize this line, ’ said a culprit to a hangman. “Oh! never mind this once,” was the reply, “it will suspend its operations.” The “Sebastopole” is the title of a new cloak for the ladies. So called, we surmise, because what is inside of it, can’t or won’t be “taken !” Pretty name. The fourth paityof emigrants from New England have laid out a city a long way up the Kansas river, and call it Wauponsa, which in Indian means-the “dawn of day.” T Say!

A pious old gentleman told bis sons not to go, under any circumstances, a M GEMS OF THOUGHT. A knowledge of our duties is the most useful part of philosophy. A bad workman qtfarrels with his tools. A few books well chosen are of more use than a great library. A bitter jest is the poison of friend ship. Avarice generally miscalculates, and as generally deceives. A blithe heart makes a blooming vis age. * Abundance is a trouble, but compe tency brings delight. ^ A burden which one chooses is not felt. A man had better be poisoned in bis blood than in his principles. A careless watch invites a vigilant foe. A virtuous mind in a fair body is like a fine picture in a good light.

T HE only house doing business in that city that actually had any experience in Re ceiving and Forwarding of Goods previous to the South Carolina Railroad quitting the business in July last, is still open for the Receiving and Forwarding of aH kinds of goods wares, merchandise, machinery, produce, Ac. If you want your goods forwarded without the vexatious delays and enormous expense bills paid the last season, nud at the same time have your business done in such a man ner that somebody will be made responsible for the damaged and lost packages, consign them to Tinlex it Hebron. who have Received and Forwarded all Goods consigned to them during all the past season without any extra charge over those established rates as given below, and up to this time have not encoun tered a solitary complaint. Our Mr. Herron was Clerk of the Receiv ing and Forwarding Department of the South Carolina Rail Road Company for tho past seven years and is perfectly familiar with all their books, freight tariffs and rules of shipment,both by railroads ana vessels, to gether with the mode of procedure to secure damages and pay for lost articles from other parties, the proper steps of which will be taken in all such cases without loss or delay to the owners. Anotherimportantadvantage is that his thorough knowledge of all freights and rules of shipment enables him toihstamly detect and correct any overcharge iu the Bills of lading; which in all cases has to be done at that time, or be lost to the owner, in many instances greatly exceeding the com missions we charge. He was also raised in Charleston, is perfectly acclimated and free from the contagions of that city, therefore we will under all circumstances faithfully discharge any busincss.cntrusted to us.

I take this opportunity of stating that my ancestors were all American Citizens, and that I entertain for all that concerns America and the Americans, the most lively sympathies, so much so that I originally compounded these l’ills expressly to suit your climate, habits, constitutions, and manner of living, intending to establish mysell among you, which I have now done, by taking pre mises in New York. THOMAS HOLLOWAY, 38, corner Ann aud Nassau Streets, N.Y PURIFICATION OF THE BLOOD AND Liver & Bilious Complaints. The Citizens of the Union suffer much from disorders of the Liver and Stomach, scarcely any are free from the influence of these des tructive maladies, hence life wears fast. The fair sex, perhaps the handsomest in the world, up to a certain period when, disfros-s ing to say, many lose their teeth nni good looks, while yet iu the heyday of life. Such sad evils may be effectually remedied by con tinually keeping the blood pure, and the Liv- er and stomach in a healthy action,when life will flow smoothly, and resemble plants in a congenial clime,-where an etornal spring ap pears to reign. As it regards the preserva tion of the human frame, and the duration of life, much may be effected, and I say fear lessly, that health : nd life can be prolonged for many years beyond their ordinary limits, if Holloway’s Pills are taken to purify the’ blood according to tho rules laid down for health contained in the directions which ac company each bos, A CASE OF WEAKNESS AND DEBILITY, OF TEN YEARS STANDING, CURED BY HOL LOWAY^ PILLS.

Sir, It is with the most heartfelt plea sure I have to inform you that I have beeu restored to health and strenght by taking your Pills. For the last ten years, I ouffer- ed from a derangement of the Liver and Stomach, and,was reduced to such an extre mity that I gave up my Ship, never expcct- ing to go to sea any more, as I had tried eve ry Remedy that was recommended to me, but all to no purpose ; and had given myself up to despair, when I was at last recommended to take yonr Pills. After using them for three months, tho result is that I am now in better lieslth than I have been for eleven years past, and indeed as well a3 ever I was in my life, You are quite at liberty to make this known for the benefit,of others.
