A great many men have a hole in their pocket, and so lose all the little change they put into it. And the worst of it is, they do not know it; if they did, they could mend up the hole, and so put. an end to the loss. Every day they are minus a few dimes, and they wonder how they come so short. . When the bills are to he paid, they cannot imagine how they come to be so short of change. At the end of the year, they are surprised to find so poor a footing up. They work hard, rack their brains on plans, and still they do not get ahead much. Bills accumulate, income diminishes, and still they do not discover the hole in the pocket. One man has had bad fences, gates and barns. The cattle break through every now and then, and destroy crops, and he occupies time in driving them out. The pigs creep through the holes. The horses getaway. The boys and men and ser vants and dogs are kept on the run alter roguish cows and jumping horses and climbing hogs. The stock becomes unea sy, and does not thrive. The crops arc injured. The fences arc broken down. Time is consumed. The trouble is, that man has a hole in his pocket. One man has no shed, no barns, nor granaries, nor tool-houses. His grain is much injured and wasted. The rats eat his corn, and the damp weather moulds it. His pota toes rot. llis pumpkins arc destroyed. His fruit does him hut little good. Ilis tools are rotted and rusted in the, open weather. His stock is chilled and stunted for want of shelter. His trouble is a hole in his pocket, out of which §lip all his prof its, with much of the fruits of his hard la bor. One man has poor plow’s of the senile stamp of his ancestors. He cannot afford a modern plow. Nonsense of scientific tools. Drills are a humbug. Deep plow ing will spoil the land. So he plows and sows as his grandfather did, on the worn- out soil of his venerable ancestors. He has a hole in his pocket, and will have it till he wakes up to the importance of good tools and good culture of himself aud soil. One man does not take the paper ; can not afford it; has no time to read ; does not believe in book-farming; likes the old ways best; denies all the stories he has heard from rumor about large cattle and crops and profits; does not believe iu new uotious. For forty years he has planted his corn on the same ground ; sown wheat in the same field ; pastures the same land. He h as heard of rotation of crops, hut he does not know what it means, nor cares to know. A bad hole has this man got in his pocket. And who has not got a hole in his pock et? Reader, have not you? Look and see. Is there not some way in which you let slip the dimes you might better save ; some way in which you waste time and strength and mind ? If so, then you have a hole iu your pocket. Indeed, many a man’s pock et is like a seive. Whose pocket is a treasury, safe aud sure?—Valley Farmer. A Strange Specimen of Fijian Etiquette. The funniest of all these marks of re spect, or as I suppose I should call it, “eti quette,” is the “bale mari,” which is, that if the master makes a false step and tum bles down, the servants must do so also.— I once saw a very amusing example of this, and certainly a strong proof of the tenacx ty with which these extraordinary people cling to their ideas of right and wrong. The great men were particularly fond of coming on board and dining with us. One old gentleman came pretty often ; he was, 1 suppose, a great “swell” among the Fi jians, as he brought a couple of servants with him on every occasion. It so hap pened, one day wheu he was dining with us we had champagne ; our friend took to it kindly, imbibing glass after glass with a gusto it did one’s heart good to see. The result may be imagined ; he got very much excited, volunteered a dance, Ac., and fi nally, when a party of us who were going ashore landed him, he would hear ot noth ing but our accompanying him home.— Nothing loth to see the end, three of us went, and I certainly never regretted it, or laughed so much in my life. We had not gone two hundred yards when liis highness capsized and came down with a run, head foremost. YVliat was our aston ishment, when down went the two followers also, in precisely the same mannei! Then up staggered the chief, ditto his servants. A few steps further on, up went the old fellow’s toes, and this time he lit upon his beam-cud. By Jove ! it was ditto with his followers, too, and we, after assisting the dignity to rise, kept half an eye behind, watching the movements going on, expec ting the Jacks had been plying tbe ser vants with rum ; but no, they rose with the greatest gravity, and marched on as steady as grenadiers, only going down as often as their master “came to grief.” After sun dry falls and risings again the chief sub sided into a slight hollow, out of which he made one or two efforts to rise; then qui etly crossing his legs, and smiling beuing- ly, he began reciting a long story, con taining, 1 have no doubt, the narrative of the mighty deeds he had done. We watched him a short time, and then tired of laughiug, wished him good night. The last thing we saw, on turning back, was the recumbent forms of master and men. Such was my personal introduction to the “pale mari,” which is, without exception, the most curious custom I ever met with. African Fashions. The dictates of fashion are quite as ab solute and quiet as absurd in the interior of Africa as in Paris. W e find a good instance of this in a journal of a recent traveller : “Many of the men are very intelligent looking with high foreherds and well sha ped heads. They show singular taste in the astonishingly varied style in which their hair is arranged. Their bead neck laces are really pretty specimens of work. Many have the upper and middle as well as the lower part of the ear bored, and have from three to five rings in each ear. The hole in the lope of the ear is large enough to admit one’s finger, and some wear a piece of bamboo about an inch long in it. Brass and iron bracelets, elab orately figured, are seen ; and some of the men sport fiom two to eight brass rings on each finger, and even the thumbs are not spared. They wear copper, brass and iron rings on their legs and arms. Many have their front teeth notched, and some file them till they resemble the teeth of a saw. The upper lip ring of the women gives them a revolting appearance. It is uni versally worn in the highlands. A punc ture is made high iu the lip, and it is grad ually enlarged until the pelcle can be in- seated. Some are very large. One we measured caused tbe lip to project two inches beyond tbe tip of the nose. When the lady smiled the contraction of the mus cles elevated it over the eyes. ‘YV T hy do women wear these things ?” the venerable Chief, Chinsured, was asked. Evidently surprised at such a stupid question, he re plied, ‘For beauty ! They aro the only beautiful thing women have. Men have beards; women have none. What kind of a person would she be without a pelcle ! She would not be a woman at all with a mouth like a mau, hut no beard.’ ” A Hurried Pyramid of Serpents, A traveller in South America writes : In the savannah of Izaeuba, in Guiana, I saw the most terrible spectacle that can be seen ; and although it is not uncommon to the inhabitants, no traveler Las ever mentioned it. We were ten men on horse back, two of whom took the lead, in order to sound the passage, while I preferred to skirt the great forest. One of the blacks who formed the vanguard returned at full gallop, and called to ine, “Here, sir : come and see the serpents in a pile.” He point ed out to me something elevated in the middle of the savannah or swamp which looked like a bundle of arms. One of my company then said, “This is certainly one of the assemblages of serpents which heap themselves on each other after a violet tempest. I have heard of these, but have never seen any ; let us proceed cautiously, and not go too near.” YVe were within twenty paces of it; the terror of our horses prevented our nearer approach, to which none of us were inclined. On a sudden the pyramid mass became agitated ; horri ble hissings issued from it. Thousands of serpents, rolled spirally on each other, shot forth out of their circle their hideous heads, and presented their enormous darts and fiery eyes to us. I own I was one of the first to draw back ; but wheu 1 saw this formidable phalanx remaining at its post, and appearing to be more disposed to defend itself than to attack us, I rode around in order to view its order of patlle, which faced the enemy on every side. I then sought what could he the design of this numerous assemblage, and I concluded that this species of serpents dreaded some enemy ; which might be the great serpent or cayman ; and that they re united them selves after seeing this enemy, iu order to resist in a mass. Baxter.—The biographer of Baxter says : “In preaching Baxter’s heart burned within him ; and while he was speaking a live coal from the alter fired his sermons with seraphic fervor. Into his pulpit he brought all the energies of his entire na ture. He had a large mind, an actutc in tellect, a melting heart, a holy soul, a kindling eye, and “moving voice,” and he called on all that was within him to aid him in his preaching. Being deeply earn est himself, lie wished his hearers to be deeply earnest. Himself being a burning light, he wished to flash the hallowed fire into the hearts of others. lie seems never to have studied action, or “the start theat ric.” The only teacher that gave him lessons in action and attitude was feeling, real, genuine, holy feeling ; and taught him how to move, and how to speak. In preaching as well as in everything religious, he believed with Paul that “it is a good tiling to he always zealously affected;” aud consequently that earnest, fervid preaching is truly apostolic. The Toothache.—“My dear friend;” said II., “I can cure your toothache in ten minutes.” “How ?” I inquired. “Do it in pity.” “Instantly,” said he. “Have you any alum?” “Yes.” “Bring it and some common salt.” They were produced. My friend pulverized them, mixed them in equal quantities, then wet a small piece of cotton, causing the mixed powder to adhere, and placed it in iny hollow tooth. “There,” said he, “If that does not cure you, I will forfeit my head. You may tell this toevery one.and publish it everywhere. The remedy is infallible.” It was as ho predicted. On the introduction of the mix cd alum and salt, I experienced a sensa tion of coldness, and with it ceased the torment of the toothache. Children.—Hard he his fate who makes no childhood happy ; it is so easy. It does not require wealth, or position, or fame ; only a little kindness, and the tact which it inspires. Give a child a chance to love, to play, to exercise his imagination and affections, and ho will be happy. Give him the conditions of health, simple food, air, exerciSe, and he will be happy, and expand in happiness. A Sister’s Love.—Beautiful is the love of a sister; the kiss that hath no guile, and no passion; the touch is purity, and bringeth peace, satisfaction to the heart, and no throb brings to the pulse. Beauti ful is the love of a sister; it is moonlight on our path ; it is of heaven, and yet sheds its peace upon earth. “I do wish I could be cured of lying in bed so late in the morning,” said a lazy husband, lounging upon his pillow. “Well, I will try the water cure,” said his wife, pouring & bucketful ou him. The papers relate an auecdote of a beau tiful young lady who had become blind, having recovered her sight after marriage. Whereupon Snooks wickedly observes that it is no uncommon thiug for people’s eyes to ho opened by matrimony. Public Heeling in YVilbinsnii. Irwinton, Ga., \ April 20th, 1SG1.

'I’lie President having appointed the Committees called for in the above resolu tion, the meeting then adjourned, subject to the call of the President. Moved, that the Federal Union and Southern Recorder, publish the proceed ings of the meeting; adopted. G. B. BURNEY, Pl-es’t. Iverson II. Fleetwood, Sec’y. The hour having arrived, when the la dies of the county, were to present the Wilkinson Rifles Company with a flag.— I he people in mass followed the Company to the parade ground in front of Mr. T.N. Beall’s residence. When Miss Maxa A. Beall, having been selected by the ladies to present the flag, w T as conducted to the Platform or stage, that had been erected for the occasion. And on presenting the beautiful flag of the Confederate States to the Company.— Delivered the following address, with a clear and distinct voice, which not only reached the heart of the Corps, but all who heard her; tears could be easily seen upon the cheeks of many in the large as sembly : Address,—Amid the general distraction of National affairs, and the prompt and vigorous preparation for coming events, it may not be. inappropriate, on an occasion like this, for woman to raise her voice in defence of rights as dear as home and as precious as life. To break up any political organaization, under which a nation has increased in wealth, power, respectability, is at all times hazardous; and no people compre hending and appreciating their position in the family of nations, will oveiturn the ex isting form of government, or annul time- honored compacts, unless forced to do so in defense of cherished rights or in the es tablishment of great and fundamental prin ciples. The light of self-protection and of pursuing aud obtaining happiness, im plies the right of change, when Govern ment fails to secure these ends. We hold this truth to be self-evident, whenever we are restrained in the exercise of cur Na tional rights by a central power, or by ma jorities which disregard our equality and the solemn compact of nationality, such acts become tyranny, and the people so oppressed, have an inalienable and inde feasible right to institute Government—to alter, reform, or totally change the same, when their safety and happiness thus re quire it. To deny this right of change or reform, is to insist upon oppression and tyranny, without a mode of redress. The attempt to enforce submission to wrongs, injustice and tyranny, drove our fore-fathers to arms and separation from England. The causes which led to that separation, are too fresh in the pages of our country’s history, and the spirit that animated them has been too purely trans mitted from sire to son, for this generation to suffer similar national wrongs to be prac tieed upon a great and free people. We are not persecuted emigrants from foreign lands, recently released from a tyrant’s yoke, and accustomed to tbe sceptre and crow n of royalty, but we are the legiti mate sons and daughters from that land of freedom where imperial thrones have never stood and where power and place are not dispersed by a monarch’s nod. We the people hold the reins of this government and claim to be the sovereigns of this land; and when in the development of our national resources and the expan sion of the principles which underlie our government, feelings and interests become so antagonistic as to jeopardize the liber ty, rights and institutions of one section, we ought aud of a light, must dissolve the political ties which unite us as a people, and declare before the powers of the world our separate and independent nationality. 'I his act wc have performed and in the maintenance of the position which we have assumed, wc are willing to pledge our pro perty, our lives, and our sacred honor. Any attempt to coerce the seceding States, w ill marshal to the field every gal lant sou of liberty in the South, and when these shall fall upon the battle-fleld, wo man shall buckle upon her slender lorin, the panoply of war, and bear triumphant amid carnage .-uid death, this noble flag of her beloved South, or die in the struggle, rather than gr ice the conquerors triumph, or otrn submission to Black Republican rule. Gentlemen of the Wilkinson Rifles.—In discharging the honorable trust of being the public organ cf the sentiments and feelings of the ladies of this section, on this occasiou, I have the honor of present ing to you a flag which, if the condition of our couiitiy shall demand, you are to un- fnrl before the foe, and summon to its de fence tLe chivalry and heroism of your gallant Company. Remember we are not acting under a momentary excitement or the transient symptoms of blind phrensy but conscious of wrong and insult, we have been taught to know our rights and dare maintain them. We believe that this age is to stamp tbe character of centuries to come, The moral and political condition of millions that shall move over dust is now trembling in the scales. To yon is assigned an act in the great drama of the age, and whilst we indicate to-day, the confidence we repose in your noble band, by committing these colors to your guardian care, we would have every member sensible of bis high and fearful re sponsibilities and always to bear in mind tbe sentiment expressed in the motto, which is inscribed on your banner. When called to do service for your couutry,your homes, and your fire sides, throw to the breeze this flag, we now present you, and sooner than surrender it to tbe enemy, or waive it over inglori jus defeat, pile the dead beneath its folds and wrap tbe gal lant corps in it as tlieir winding sheet. And o’er your graves will wondering winds repeat the dirge of millions for the fallen brave; While each high deed survives in safer trust. Titan those consigned to mound or marble dust. Dr. N. Fisher, Private of the Wilkinson Rifles, responded in behalf of the corps. ADDRESS. Before the wicked passions of men had caused the devastating scenes of war to be enacted upon tbe earth,—when God’s great master-piece—the first human crea ture—stood forth in the Garden of Eden, encompassed by all that was essential to his wants and transcendently beautiful to behold, that Creator saw fit to add yet an other drop to his already brimming cun in the person of the peerless Eve. When in an evil hour he transgressed Heaven’s first estate and was driven into the world to “contend with thistles and thorns,” that judge who ever “seasons justice with mer cy,” permitted this lovely though fallen creature to accompany him info his ban ishment. From that time until the pres ent, her daughters have every where striv en to lighten the burdens and sorrows of their natural and sterner associates, and we do but turn aside from ou. - duties as soldiers to-day, to witness and receive an other manifestation of the fulfilment of the mission of woman on earth. Truly we hear with delight her voice in these troub lous times, pleading for the lights of home and its blessed accompaniments. As a people, we have not severed the bonds which bound us to those who are now our most unrelenting enemies, with out timely consideration of tbe consequen ces. We have looked into the history of the past and fouud that such disruptions have always been synonymous with revolu tion, with bloodshed, and for tbe time be ing the most dire results that could befall a people. On the other hand, we beheld our dearest rights assailed, onr mainsprings of national prosperity crushed, and threat- ed with extinction, by the will of a major ity in power, who wielded that power as oppressively, as if it were the iron heel of despotism itself. Under tbe protecting wing of that ma jority, we were roused from our midnight slumbers to find our private bouses wrap ped in incendiary flames; we saw bloody insurrection stalking through the land, and choosing tbe lesser evil, we determined to take tbe momentous step of separation and abide tbe consequences to the bitter end. Now that the storm has hurst upon us, and we are called upon to fight for the rights we have had the temerity to claim as our own and inalienable, we are none tbe less determined. Ladies of Irwinton.—YYm have this day, presented to our Company a Hag—a beau tiful copy of the national ensign adopted by the recent Confederate States,—aud you have asked us—when our country shall have summoned us to its service, to unfurl it before tbe foe and rally to its de fence. W T e humbly trust, we appreciate the honor you do us, in confiding this to ken of your confidence and approbation to our care. W r e are no hireling soldiery. In common with the thousands who have flocked aronnd the standard of Jeff. Davis, and have pledged their lives and fortunes, in support of his government, we battle for the lofty principles of national right and national equality. W T e light under a sense of wrong, oppression and insult. Accord ing to the custom of enlightened nations every where, we have asked for treaty and recognition. As a last resort, we went to those who would have crushed us to the earth, and asked them to sit in peaceful council with our ambassadors. They have spurned them away and now that “the ar gument is exhausted,” and we bear in som bre tones from the cabinet at Washington, and le-echoed as the war-cry throughout the North, submission or blood, w e are com pelled to say thrice welcome to the feast of carnage. If, indeed, the seventy-five thousand myrmidons of Abraham Lincoln, according to his late proclamation, are to attempt to chain the hands and close the morftlis of the noblest and the bravest peo ple on earth, then, trnstrng in the God of battles and the justness of our cause, we say God speed the wind that wafts them to our shores. Then wili be decided wheth er tbe boasted chivalry of Southern arms is ali a farce, or indeed a dreadful reality. We are proud of this beautiful banner, with its red, white and red, and seven allu sive stars; but we prize it still more, that it is tbe gift of tbe daughters of Wilkinson county; and it is a pleasing and remarka ble coincidence, that your fair representa tive on this occasion, is the near descend ant of ancestry that have doue sigual sir- vice in the councils, and upon the battle fields of tbe State of Georgia. In behalf of the company of which I have the honor to be a member, and to represent on this occasion, I now promise you that if called into tbe field, before this flag shall trail in the dust of a cowardly retreat, we’ll welter in one common gore. To the color-hearer. I now confide these colors to your care. In being the bearer of them, you Lave put upon you a mark of distinction of which jou may well be proud. Bear them well and nobly, wherever we are called to go. Above the din of battle if it need be, let it proudly float, and with “Wilkinson Rifles,” as the talisman of our honor, and “all for oik God and our couutry,” as our motto, t^^I dispute every inch of ground befoj* 5 our altars and fire sides, shall be deviated by the foul footsteps of th/roriUiu^ hordes of the North.
