The Kindhearted Tanner-
The following incident is so beautiful
and touching, that it should be read in
every household in the country. It dc-
relope the true, active principle of kind
ness. How many a man, making his first
stop in crime, might be redeemed by the
exercise of this sublime trait in the cha
racter of the kind-hearted Quaker.
Wdi. Savery, an eminent minister
among the Quakers, was a tanner by
trade. One night a quantity of bides
was stolen from bis tanery, and he had
reason to believe that the thief was a
quarrelsome, drunken neighbor called
John Smith. Next week the following
advertisement appeared in the county
newspapers :
“ Whoever stole a quantity of hides on
tire fifth of this month, is hereby inform
ed that the owner has a sincere wish to
be his friend. If poverty tempted him
to take this false step, the owner will
keep the whole affair secret, and will glad
ly put him in the W'ay of obtaining mon
ey by means more likely to bring peace
of mind I”
This singular advertisement attracted
considerable attention; but the culprit
alone knew who had made the kind offer.
When he read it his heart melted within
him, and he was filled with sorrow for
what he had done. A few nights after
wards, as the tanner’s family were about
retiring to rest, they heard a timid knock,
and when the door was opened there
stood John Smith, with a load of hides
on his shoulders. Without looking up
lie said : “ 1 have brought these back,
Mr. Savery; where shall I put them ?”
“ Wait till I can get a lantern, and I
will go to the barn with thee,” be re
plied, “ then thou wilt come iu, and tell
me how this happened. We will see
what can be done lor thee.”
As soon as they were gone out, bis
wife prepared some hot coffee, and placed
pies and meat on the table. Alter they
returned from the barn, she said : “Neigh
bor Smith, 1 thought some hot supper
would be good for tliee^.
He turned his back towards her, anu
did not speak. Leaning against (lie fire
place in siience lor a lew moments he
said in a chakedvoice : “It is the first
time I ever stole anything, and I have
felt very badly about it. I am sure 1
didn’t once think that I should ever come
to what 1 am. But I took to drinking,
and then to quarreling. Since I began
to go down bill everybody gives me a

| Southern Understandings.—A cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Commercial
writes thus touching the feet of the South-
| ern people : From Louisiana to Virginia,
I have had two ways telling a Southern-
| bred man. In the first place I looked at
his foot. If it was short and thick, with
| a very high instep, I knew that he was
j born somewhere below Mason and Dixon’s
| meridian. Any wholesale dealer in shoes
will tell you that the sizes he sends the
South are very different from those called
for at the West. I realized this fully at
Montgomery, where I searched every
shop in the city for a pair of' boots, and
was compelled finally to select a pair too
short for comfort, yet a world too loose
over the arch of the foot. The Southern
ladies have the smallest natural feet in
the world. Few who have been gently
bred wear gaiters larger than number two,
three, or four.

“ Let it be the last, my friend,”
plied William Savery. “ The secret
between ourselves. Thou art still young,
and it is in thy power to make up for lost
time. Promise me thou wilt not drink
any intoxicating liquor for a year, and I
will employ thee to morrow on good
wages. Thy little boy can pick up stones.
But eat a bit now, and driuk some hot
coffee; perhaps it will keep thee from
craving anything stronger to-night.—
Doubt! css thou will find it hard to abstain
atfiist; but keep up a brave heart for
the sake of thy wife and children, and it
will soon become easy. If thou hast
need of coffee, tell Mary, and she will
give it thee.”
The poor fellow tried to eat and drink,
but the food seemed to choke him. Af
ter vainly trying to be composed he bow
ed h is head on the table, and wept like
a child. After a while he ate and drank,
and his host parted with him for the
night with the friendly words. “ Try to
do well, John, and thou wilt always find
a fricud in me.” John entered his em
ploy the next day, and remained with
him many years a sober, honest and
steady man. The secret of the theft was
kept between them; but after John’s
death, William Savery sometimes told
the story, to prove that evil might be
overcome with good.
“ Bayonets think,” says Napoleon ; but
it remained for our Southern satraps to
prove that they can vote “ muchly,”
Arteuius Ward might say. Witness the
following:
The most infamous frauds were perpe
trated in many counties at the Arkansas
election At Clarksville, for instance,
ninety nine votes were returned against
the Constitution—since then the affida
vits of one hundred and eighty have been
taken of those who voted against it. One
of the Registers is knowu to have voted
twice, and was seen to tear up Conserva
tive tickets from the Military ballot-box.
Negroes were permitted to vote two or
three time, and even negro women ap
peared, dressed in men’s clothes, and de
posited votes —Ex.

The ladies of Arabia stain their fingers
and toes red, their eyebrows black, and
their lips blue. In Persia they paint a
black streak around their eyes, and orna

The Japanese women gild their teeth,
and those of the Indians paint them red.
The pearl of the tooth must be dyed black

land the women color their faces with
blue and yellow, and they frequently tat

soot, inserting them beneath the skin,
and then drawing them through. Hin
doo families, when they wish to appear
particularly lovely, smear themselves with
a mixture of saffron, tumeric, and grease.
In nearly all the islands of the Pacific

In ancieut Persia, an aquiline nose was

Prison Cemetery—About one thous
and yards northwest from the prison pen,
and about one thousand two hundred
yards from the railroad station, is the
cemetery, in which are buried about 14,-
050 men. The first 300 were buried in
coffins, the next 000 were covered with
hoards and boughs, and from that num
ber to 12,840 the bodies were buried
shoulder to shoulder, in trenches about
three feet deep and six feet wide. About
1,000 bodies have been brought here
from Macon, Americus, Columbus, Eu
faula, Albany, and other points in the
vicinity.
The various States of the Union are re
presented in the cemetery as follows, viz:

A Millionaire Arrives at our Pen

lyn member of the whisky ring, who was
sent to our Penitentiary - for defrauding
the Government out of different sums of
money, has arrived at that institution.—
Lt is said that he made upward of half a
million dollars, lie is the richest man
in the institution. He is worth two mill
ions of dollars. This is a world of change.
Last year Develyn indulged in woodcock

should, and we trust will, prove a warn

Preserving Pickles from Scum.—
A correspondent of the Rural New York
er gives the following: “Pack the cu
cumbers, or whatever is to be pickled, in
a jar or tub, pour a weak biinc upon
them, and let it remain three days. Pour
oft’ the brine, and pour on boiling hot
vineg r enough to cover the pickles, and
let them stand twenty-four hours. Re
boil the vinegar and pour on as before.—
Do this three times, letting the pickles
stand twenty-four hours each time. Then
throw the pickle away, and add enough
fresh vinegar to cover the cucumbers, or
whatever is to be pickled Add a small
lump of alum the size of a marble to a
gallon of pickle ; half pound of sugar,
and spices to taste. Bring to a boil, skim,
and then turn upon the pickles while
hut. Let them stand, well covered, for
ten days, and they are ready for. Peach
es, pears, sweet apples, etc., are served in
flic same way, excepting the use of brine.
The author of this receipt has pickles two
years old, preserved iu this way, as free
from rot and scum as when first put
down.”
Waking Up.—The cotton lords of
New England are at. last seriously alarm
ed at the results of unfriendly legislation
and the general policy of the Radical
majority in Congress towards the South,
upon cotton production in the United
States. We see that a cotton manufac
turers’ convention is to be held in New
York, at the St. Nicholas Hotel, on April
29th, to consult on the general interests
of their business. The call for the con
vention is issued by six of the leading
cotton manufacturers of Massachusetts
and the object it is said to be “ to observe
legislation with constant care, and with
all proper influence to guard against enact
ments hurtful or erroneous, and promote
those which shall be right and beneficial;
to collate, digest and disseminate among
the members all the attainable informa
tion and statistics that shall be accurate
and trustworthy ; to promote cotton cul
tivation in our country, and a reeogni
tion of the identity of interests between
the cotton grower and manufacturer; and
generally, to accomplish by associated ef
forts whatever may be found right and
expedient for the common good and with
in the sphere of the association.—Char
leston News.
A Single Handful of Manure.—
A single handful of manure p>ut into a
hill of corn, will often make the difference
between four or five little “ nubbins,”
and six or eight great plump ears that
will shell their bulk of sound corn. A
thousand handfuls count up heavily in
the autumn corn crib. How many hand
fuls of manure are daily lost in your stock
yard that might be saved in nice order
by a little care in heaping up and cover
ing from washing rains ? These hand
fuls of manure are more valuable to the
cultivator than the separate grains of gold
the miner, with careful toil, gathers and
washes from the earth and sand. He
hunts, gathers aud saves them all, and
thus aecumlates his “pile.” Philosophic
al, successful cultivators, can see glitter
ing gold even iu the manure heap ; they
only wait a little longer than the miner
for the pure gold to be washed out by the
growing process, instead of in the wash
pan.—Home Journal.
Young man ! A mis-step may destroy
you. One sin may ruin your character,
llow careful you should be while in the
freshness of your days, lest a blight fall
on you forever. If invited to places of
resort, where it is difficult to decide, take
the safe course, stay away and save your
reputation. This is a jewel of inestima
ble value, too precious to be put in jeop
ardy. No man ever regrets that he
kept away from temptation, and to the
close of life, he expresses joy that he was
saved from the path of shame, by giving
a decided negative, when the hand of
pleasure beckoned him on. Be decided
and you ore safe. Y ield and you are
lost. Watch with diligence, and guard
every avenue through which sin may
reach you. In no other way will you be
able to overcome the evils of the world.
The Shadows of Life. - The shad

Are net, then, the sorrows of childhood
as dark as those of age v Are not the
morning shadows of life as deep and
broad as those of its evening ? Yes, but
morning shadows soon fade away, while
those of evening reach forward into the
night and mingle with the coming dark-

Anecdote of Lola Montez.—The death, a
tew weeks ago, of the old ex-King of Bavaria,
the friend and protector of Lola Montez, has
caused a revival of the gossip about that noted
and notorious woman. You may remember
that she died here seven or eight years ago, in
a condition bordering on destitution. The
physician who cared for her in her last illness
never received pay for his services, and the
owner of the littie garret where she died had
a bill for several weeks’ rent that he could not
collect. The headstone that marks her grave
in Greenwood was paid for by one of Lola’s
acquaintances, and bears the simple inscrip
tion “ Eliza Gilbert,” with her age, which I do
not exactly remember.
During her last illness a lawyer of this city
waited upon her physician and told him that
Lola owned certain real estate in Bavaria,
presented to her by the King, and which she
was at full liber y to sell, while, if she neg
lected to sell it, the property would revert to
the government at her death. They olfered
two hundred thousand dollars for the title
deeds, or rather for her signature, to certain
papers they had prepared. The poor, suffer-
iug woman took the papers and offered to
consider the matter. Here was an opportu
nity to settle herself comfortably for the re
mainder of her life, to pay all her indebted
ness, and fully compensate all who rendered
her service. Only her signature, properly cer
tified, upon two ducuinehts, to gain two hun
dred thousand dollars. But on the other hand,
she professed to have changed her heart and
conduct, and abandoned forever her life of
wickedness. Believing herself a Christian,
could she accept this pecuniary compensation
for her vicious career in Bavaria? At the end
of three days she signified her willingness to
sign the papers. Witnesses were called, she
wrote her name at the bottom of one document
and began the signature to the second. As
she formed the second or third letter she
dropped the pen with a second explanation,
and refused to write more. Tearing the papers
iuto fragments, she declared that no pecuniary
distress could induce her to accept this price
of her shameless course, and forbade the sub
ject ever to be mentioned to her again. And
so she resisted temptation and died in poverty.

HARPER’S BAZAR.
The Publishers will commence, on November
1st, the issue of Haiipeh's Bazar, a weekly
Illustrated Family Journal, devoted to Fash
ion and Home Literature. Their aim is two
fold : to supply the existing need of a Weekly
Fashion Newspaper, and to combine therewith
a first-class literary journal, which will he in
dispensable to every household.
Arrangements have been made at an im
mense cost, with the most celebrated of lbe
Fashion Papers of Europe, especially with the
famous Bazar of Berlin, which supplies the
fashions to the leading journals of Paris, to
furnish the same to them in advance, so that
henceforth the fashions will appear in Harper's
Bazar simultaneous with their publication in
Paris and Berlin—an advantage enjoyed by no
other journal in the country.
’The patrons of Harckr's Bazar will receive
every fornight large pattern-plates, containing
from forty to fifty full-sized patterns of ladies',
misses’, and children’s bonnets, cloaks dresses,
under clothing, and other articles, accompanied
with the necessary descriptions and dirrections,
and occasionally an elegant Colored Fashion
Plate of the size of Harper’s Weekly.
Harper’s Bazar will contain 16 folio pages
of the size of Harper’s Weekly, printed on
superfine calendered paper, and will bepublish-
ed weekly.
