Those whose crops were clean previous

by hard wo Ik to keep ahead, but where
the rain found them not fet out of the

A latly requests the Charleston Courier
to insert the following: Wanted, one
hundred and fifty young men, more or
leas, of all shapes and sizes, from the tall
graceful dandy, with hair sufficient on his
upper lip to stuft a barber’s cushion, down
to the little bow-legged, freckled-facked,
carrot-headed upstart. The object is to
forin a gaping crowd, to be in attendance
at the corners of streets and Church
doors at the close of divine service each
Sabbath, to re at the ladies as they
leave Church, and to make delicate and
tlemanly remarks on their person and
as. All who wish to enter the above
corps will appear on the steps of the va
rious Church doors next Sunday evening,
when they will be duly inspected, their
names, personal appearauce, and quality
of brains registered in a book for that
purpose. To prevent a general rush, we
will state that no one will be enlisted who
possesses intellectual capacity above that
of a well-bred donkey.

Mrs. Victoria Woodhull-Blood writes:
'The whole social state is honeycombed
with social irregularities and outrages;
everybody knows the fact, aud yet every
body pretends to conceal it; everybody
knows that everybody else knows it, and
yet everybody pretends to conceal tho
fact that everytxHly knows il Hypoc
risy is settling like a mildew on every in
dividual character. When the veil is
pulled off, when the nightmare is dis-
e lled, when men ami women are justi-
d to themselves and dare state their
convictions, and live their own lives in
freedom; men and woman who are now
crouching in abject fear before a false
public opinion, which they are them
selves helping to create and intensify,
will join in one universal hallelujah to
their deliverers. There is a skeleton in
every house ! an incubus on every free
breath ! a reign of terror in every house
hold !”

The thousands of friends and acquain
tances of Mr. T. S. Nickerson, the popu
lar host of the Screven House in this city,
will regret to hear of his death, which
took place at the Plankinton House in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, whither he had
gone in what proved to be a vain search
for health. He left Savannah ou the
13th of May, was taken sorioosly ill on
the 25th, and died on the 6th of June.—
Mr. Nickerson was born in Massachu
setts. In 1843 he went to Charleston to
take charge of the Charleston Hotel. In
1847 or ’8 he was connected with the Pn-
laski House in this city, and in 1853 had
control of the Mills House in Charleston.
In 1863 he managed the Nickerson Qou*-
in Columbia, ft. C M and in 1866 was in
charge of tlie Planters' Hotel in Augusta.
He took charge of the Screven House in
this city about three years too and con
ducted it in the meet successful manner.
At the time of his death he wee forty-
nine yean of age. Mr. Niokeraon wee
among the best known and most popular
landlords in the oountry. His manner
was genial and hearty, and he was kind,
considerate and ohantable. The 8**i t-v< u
