And thus our helief may ho shaken In hearts that are lnm*»t and true. ILov often the light smile of gladness Is worn ljv the friend whom wg-tnee’, To cover a soul full of sadness I’ m proud to acknowledge defeat. How often the sigh of dejection Is heated from the hypocrite’s breast, To parody truth and affeefion, Ot- lull a suspicion to rest. Ilow often thu friends tve hold dearest Tln-ir noblest emotions conceal ; And Imseins the purest, sincerest, Have thought# w hich they cannot reveal. Leave l>n»e minds to harbor suspicion, And low one* to trace out defects; Let ours be a nobler ambition. For base is the mind that suspects. Mobile must be a loyal place. The Tribune of the 16th chronicles the inurlcr of a police* man by an Indian : attempted murder of a ne gro by his wife ; the stealing of a sum of nton- i ey by another negro; the arrest of another negro charged with larceny ; a negro fight at a negro fair : tho sending of Lucy Owens, a negress. thirty days to jail for drunkenness ; the arrest of Andrew Jackson, a negro thief; arid the arrest of Will a.n Smi h, am the - negro, for burning up his brother’s clothes.

Calhoun, whoso perspicuity was so wonderful that his pr ophecies have be* coinc history, thus addressed the Senate of the United States: “ Be assured that emancipation itself would not satisfy these fanatics ; that gained, the next . tep would he to raise the negroes to a social and political equality with tho whites; and that being effected, we would soon find the present condition of the two races reverse 1, I speak with full knowledge and a thorough ex amination of the subject, and for one* sec my way clearly. One thing alarms rnc—the eager pursuit of gain which overspreads tbe land, and which absorbs every faculty of the mind and every fueling of the heart. Os all pas* sions, avarice is the most blind and compromi sing—the last to see, and the first to yield to pander. I dare not hope that anything I can say will arouse Ihe South to a due sense of datiger ; I fear it is beyond the power of mor tal voice to awake it in time from the fatal security into which it has fallen.’’ But that fiat of fate, steeped in the blood of thousands, has come upon ns with a curse more dreadful that the locusts and frogs of Egypt. So much of the prophecy, then, has been fulfilled. The social and political equal ity of whites and blacks stare us in the face. It may be forced upon us ; but has avarice so absorbed “every faculty of the mind and evety feeling of the heart,” that 'Virginians, for paltry pelf, should don their own robes of disgrace, that they should help reverse the proud motto of the glorious Old Dominion, and lick the tyrant’s foot which oppresses her fair neck ? Can her sons have so degenerated as, with voluntary hand, to place this stigma upon her fair name? If our conquerors have the power to force a -‘republican constitution upon us, witli its damning principle of social and political equality, they have neither the power nor tbe right to compel us to degrade ourselves by voting for it. Home Paper. We cut the following from the columns of one of our exchanges, to transfer its sentiments for the consideration and commendation of our own readers : What tells so readily tho standard of a town a* the appearance of its newspaper, and its youth or age ean as Well he de-ftnrd »s if obser vation had been made. Tbe enterprise ol its citizens is depicted hy its advertisements—she liberality by the looks of the paper. Some papers show a good, healthy, solid foundation, plethoric purses, and well to-do appearance generally: others show a striving to contend with grasping thousands, trying to wrench out an existence from the closo fisted community around them. An occasional meteoric display in its columns of lo- al or of editorial, shows what it would do if it had the means, but can not continue in the expensive work until the support comes which ought to be readily granted. A newspaper is like u church; it wants foster in"-, and then as a general thing it can and will reflect credit upon its location. Take \our li-rne j.nper; it gives you more news of immediate interest than the New York or other distant city papers; it talks for you when no others will speak in your favor; when other localities belie you, it stands up for your rights, you always have a champion in your home paper; ar.d those who stand up for you should certainly b# sustained. Your interests are kindred awl equal. Therefore, it is ycur interest and duty ti> support your home paper- A Radical editor in Kansas was lately chased by a vfolf, hut not caught. It was a good thing for the wolfliu did not catch hint, and take him home alive.

To our mind the richest buy in America is the one who is good hearted, honest, intelli* gent, ambition*, willing to do and to do right, lie is the one who loves his mother, and always ha* a kind word for her ; who hues his sister or sisters, and tries to help them, and who re gards them with true affection. He is the Imv who does not call his father tile “old man,’’ hut who loves him. speaks kindly to an I of him, and tries to belp him ns tho hair# of old age gather fast U|K>n his brow. The viehest hoy i* tho one wire has pluck to fight his destiny and the future. Ho is the one who has the maolmod to tin right and be honest, and who is striving to he soinebodv ; who is above doing a mean notion : who would n t tell a lie to screen KiiaselL nr ludruy a friend. 11c is the boy who has n heart for Others; whose young mind is full of noble thoughts tor the future, and who is determin ed to win a natno by good deeds, lie is the one who is looking-forward to the time when he can hare a wile—a dear, good girl—loved by him with all tho depth of nature, and for whom he will hilror to make a good home and a goisl husband. This ia the richest hoy in AHi er iew, Which one of our readers is it? This Iroy wc like; wc would be glad to see ; would like to take by the hand and tell him to go on earnestly that success might crown his efforts. And, if he is a poor l>oy, we should meet him nt the threshold, bid him enter, and give him good advice, well and kindly meant. That other rich boy down in New England wc don't care any thing about, for there are fool# and snobs enough to wor ship, flatter, and spoil him.—*N. Y. Democrat. New-Way to Season Timber. G. was building a house in tho upper part of New York, and constantly annoyed at the green lumber the carpenters would put in to it. ‘Wluit in tire name of thunder am I to do?’ lie asked of a friend who efiattced to be pnss ing. “What is the matter?” quoth T. not under standing his perplexity. “Why?” returned G., “look at these boards ; they are as full of sap as if they had been just sawed.” “Then why don’t you have them kiln dried ?” “IVell, T would, but I hav'nt got time—got to liavi: my house ready to move in by the first of the month. “What will you give me to tell you how you can have them ns dry as a hone in 4 sin gle night?” “Anything in reason, and he very much obliged to yon.” “Well, you just- titles them over to Jersey, and if the rnqsquitoes don't suck all of the sap out of them before morning, I’ll give you my head for a foot-ball.” —.— —- The I-’riglitlul Punishment ol silt-rwe. Mr. James Greenwood has published in don a frightful account of tho silent system, which is in operation at tho Ilolliway Model Prison in L ndon: It is *u o"Tonsi for a prisoner to speak one word, and he is never addressed except in whispers, so that Ire may he in prison for two years without hearing tho natural sound of a hutrial l voice. The effect of this is so terrible on the mind that prisoners will speak out in desperation, at tire risk of any punishment, rather than etdnrc that horrible siUnce. The prisoners never see on# another, but remain in parpqtrial solitude. One poor wretch, driven to desperation by nine month’s solitude and silence recklessly broke out in Mr. Greenwood's presence, in the*e words i— “For God s sake, Go-ternor, put me in another coll ! Put tne somewhere else ! I have coun ted the bricks in the cell I am in, until my eyes ache!” The request of the tortured wretch was re* fused. There is a fine hole in each cell, and as the warders wear shoes of India rubber soles, the prisoner can never he sure he is alone. Those condemned to the treadmill have to ascend twelve hu idrel steps every alternate twenty minutes for six hours. And this in a place so hot and close that prisoners often lose in perspiration throe stones in as many months. , Everv day the prisoners arc taken to a chapel so arranged that they can see no one save the chaplain, and him through an iron grating. And this is tho nrdor of devotion observed : “Warders are constantly on the watch, lest for a single instant they, through the whole of the service, depart from the rigid rule of ‘eves right.’ They must look steadfastly at the preacher ; must raise and lower their pray er-book with tho elbows squared, and all at once, like soldiers at drill. They may not scrap* their feet without having afterward to explain the movement. They may scarcely wink an eye, or sigh, without danger of rebuke or punishment.” God help them, poor wretch es!—Exchange. In a trial for a t assault some years ago, I>r. McK., in giving his evidence, informed the court that on examining the prosecutor, he found him suffering* with a severe contusion of the integuments under the left o*Mt, with great extravasation of blood and echynrosis in the surrounding cellular tissue, which was in n tumefied state. There was also considerable abrasion of the cuticle. Judge Henson—“ You mean, I suppose', that tbe man had a black eye?” Witness —“Yes.’* Judge—“ Their why the d-d-devil didn't vott b ,ry sO at once ?” Truth from Boston* A gentleman Si»*iding in Boston; writing to a friend in New Y irk, thus says some things winch savor nmr# us truth than most tilings written by the Huhites.

P*F.#int\T Johnson’s Nominees not to he ÜbNFtaweit. —A petition is being circulated In the Ilonse of Representatives asking the Senate not to confirm any t&ore nominations made hy the President this session, whether they be Republicans or Democrats. It has already re ceived the signatures of nearly nil the Repub lican members of the House, and it wHI, it is expected, be laid before the Senate at it# next Executive session, with the name of every Republican in the House attached to it. It ia said that thia movement bns the sanction of Gcueral Grant, and was sturted by his particu lar friend# tire lloUSe; The object is ti pre vent the incoming administration frord being burdened or embarrassed with tho appoint ments of President Johnson. It is stated by some here that the Senate will,, in accordance with this petition, refuse to c irfirm any more nominations that mny be sent in, and that those now before it will be indefinitely post poned.—[Washington Express. Rancid Bitter. —To a pint of water, add thirty drop* (about half a teaspoonful) of liquid chloride of lime. Wash in this twoand a half pounds of rancid butter. AVlren every particle of butter has come in contact with the water let it stand an hour or two ; then wash it well in pure water. The butter iq then left without any odor, and has tire sweetness of fresh butter. These preparations of lime have nothing inju rious in them. We copy the above from one of our exchanges, tbe editor of which «nys : “\Ye forthwith ob tained some of the moat rancid butter, and bad enough for any stomach that had more sensi hiiitv than a wagon wheel. We doctored it as per recipe, and whsh plac*d on the table atong l with new good butter, very able judges could n.rt distinguish which was the new butter.— Here is a fact worth a year’s subscription to n paper. Adam laid down and slopt—and from his side a woman, in her magic beauty rorse. Daz zled and charmed he called the woman bride, and his first sleep became his last repose. The Baltimore Sun says that some of tbe leading London Journals are urging the estab lishment of steamship lines with the Southern ports of the Unite-1 State*, especially with New Orleans and Charleston, in order not only to secure a larger- proportion of the cotton trade, but also to extend facilities to the Western agriculturists, if they wish to sen-1 their grain to Europe through its direct channel, the Mis sissippi River. They discing the matter like peopl# who “mean business.” AU created animals are combined in nmn. Wisdom make# him an ark in which they dwell together in harmony; folly, a cage in which thev bite and tear each other and him. That must have been horribly p«or land whereof, in a late squabble about payment tln-refor, it was put in evidence that it wo* “so poor that the very squirrels go about crying all the fall frees use of the scarcity of f.xrd ;’’ and that a tnnn in that countiy declared “that lie would not give fifty cents an acre for the land, and that if a kildco grazed upon it, be would get so poor that defendant would have to let down the fence to drive them off the wheat, for he would not he able to fly 1” Now, this much is of record. An inquisitive young man visited a Prison, the other day, and among other ques tions risked a girl the causo of her being in such a place. Her answer was, that she “stole a saw-mill and w ent back after the pond «»d was arrested.’’ The young man left immedi ately.

The editor of the Lancaster, Pa., Intelligen cer, who lies recently been on a Southern tour,' writes thus of tlic women of the South ! “ Southern women havo not, as yet, become enthusiastically fond of tho Union ; they were tho most rebellious of rebels during the w _tt r » tbe termination of which they viewed with the most poignant regret. Had they controlled it> destinies, we feel quite sure it would Ire raging still. They made personal sacrifices for it while it ln*t-.*l, a-nd were ready and anxious to offer nfi all they possessed upon the altar of their esuse. Thev would havo wished tha fight to continue behind every bush, and would bn-vo contested evCi y inch of Southern soil. A» it is, t,bey have stifle rciF)mticb, Init they bear their Misfortunes nobly. Wc know of two la lies, daughters of an cx-U. S. Senator front Virginia and a former ambassador at owe etf tho first European (Irtdrc*. who were tbe beUatf of the gay ertpitfil ti which their father wad accredited, yet who to-,lay are uncomplainingly earning their livelihood in Richmond at man* tna making. Wc know of another lady, and danghterofiine’oftheinostniieient and wealtfcy daughter ofirnejofthe mostnneient and wealtfcy families of the State, who is teaching school id Richmond, and her daughter is cheerfully fiW* ing tho position of governess. We might cite many eases of this kind'. Yet they do not W* pine at their misfortunes, nor regret tho atrog» g?e whteh has thus redirect! them. On# lady told me she thought their four years of inde pendence of Yankoo rule was an arapl# com pensation for all their sufferings; which w*> thought, however, was stating tho ease quit# us strongly as the truth Would warrant." Speaking on tho sam# subject, the New Or leans Times says: , “ The widow of on# of the most distinguished of the Lieutenant Oenerals of the Confederate armv, who, before tbe war, possessed great wealth, and had been reared from infaoey W the midst of every enjoyment and luxnry, tw now a teacher in a young ladies’ school in thi# city. We are glad to learn that the estimablrf lady referred to Iras every encouragement to persevere in her entirely new pursuit. Sh# had already been protreded in the same c»re«r by a near relative of Jefferson Davis, who, too, has been made a widow by tho war, and throwW on her resources for a support. Nevertheless,' ant! despite her delicate organization and want of previous training, this Indy set to work scf_ zealously to qualify herself for the duties tw teacher that now she is at the head of one of our most popular and successful school# for young people in the First District. These ar# only two of many similar examples of that tract heroism which #o graccMly adapts itself to the most violent changes of fortune, and in stead of pining and wasting with sorrow over the sad bereavements of tile past, confront# and conquer-: the severest adversity by a noble fortitude, constancy and courage.*’ Tire Conservative Virginians and Beast Butler* <v m Col.

Butler, and the purport of tb# conversation was as follows: The committee' {j represented that they stood for the nant Conservative sentiment of the Stats, a»4 „f that they made, and wer# empowered tot ffMM the tender ‘of universal suffrage fay 6#r uni versal amnesty in good faith ; and they hoped i that General Butler would approve their pur pose and their plan* With--ut committing himself to it, General Butler switched off and complnined that his advioes from Virginia led him to believe that landed proprietors wer# unwilling to dispose of their land in sraalr parcels, so as to give white and black men a chance to buy small homes, or to obtain It title in any of the soil. He was opposed thi#; thought it anti-Republican, and would extend no toleration to a State where eueh things prevailed.'"" Colonel Baldwin simply combatted this statement, saying that whif# (and in Virginia was not disproportionately held, even the' safe of it which was offereu failed for want of any real capital in th# State, and because affairs now consequent up* on misgovernment repelled capital from the State. General Butler reiterated with em*> phnsis that the lands were held in vast tract# and that proprietors refuse to sell. ll# said that would make an Ireland of Virginia mocß 1 quicker than reconstruction would. Further* more, he believed the refusal to sell lands rose from a resolution to keep Northern men from! Virginia, and from bringing ideas into the’ State, and to keep tho poor whites and the' ne groes ns panpirs, and hence a manageable class. Now, bo was always in favor of tbe rights of tho workingmen. In L 352, in Low* ell, the mill owners placarded that men voting against them would be discharged. He retor ted in a speech in behalf of the working-peo* pie, that if a single man was discharged. so» such a cause, all the mills wodW be bw#l down. No man was discharged. Irt oonclte* nkm, Gtneral Butler said that h# thought Virginia had better be admitted under the' Constitution a# it now was, and that any re*” moral of disabilities could be made when It was scerrhow the State behaved herself. The interview then terminated.—[Cftr, New York World.
