LOCAL MATTERS.

Lrcturr- <
Dr. Barker’s lecture last evening was
not as well attended ns his previous
lectures, although it was by far the
most interesting of any yet delivered. 1
The absence of so many, may be nttrib- '
uted to the fact that the door keeper de
manded fifty cents or its “ equivalent”
for admission; it not being a “free
fight" a great many counted them
selves “out.” This plan of charging
a fee for admission was adopted for the 1
purpose of excluding “Young America,"
and it operated like a charm, for not
one of that class was present. Dr. i
Barker will lecture during the ensu
ing week, commencing on Monday
night, when it will be a “free fight,”
and everybody is invited to “pitch in,”
p and come ®ut “ examined.”
City Improvements.
In outward appearance, our city is
daily improving, and the spirit of pro
gress, we arc happy to see. is getting
contagious. A number of improve
ments are going on at present, which
will not only add value to the property,
hut render old buildings in appearance
almost like new.
We are pleased to see that they have
made a commencement in improving
the appearance of Carmichael's Row.
A beautiful Iron Front has -just been
put up to the store occupied by Messrs.
Butts, Morris & Co., which is very
tasty, and gives the old store quite an
other appearance. There are fine stores
all along this range, and all of them
doing a heavy business, and if the iron !
fronts are continued, it will be one of
the handsomest ranges in this city.
JJOuv old friend, A. Frederick, lias taken I
out his old brick front to his candy es-1
tablishment, and put in a handsome'
Granite one. He did North
for the stone, but procured it at the
Stone Mountain, in this State. It is not
only substantial, but in appearance,
will bear a comparison with the best
Northern Granite.
We like to see these improvements
made—it is good evidence of the pros
perity of our city, and the growing
wealth of its inhabitants.

Sanitary and Huslnegs Matters.
Knowing the deep solicitude of ab
sentees to know the exact condition of
the health of the city, we deem it pro
per, just at this time, to make allusion
tothe matter. The late clear, cool weath
er has been most refreshing, and is re
garded highly salutary as a preventive
of infection by epidemics. Not a case
of yellow fever has occurred, and it is re
. garded quite remarkable that none have
been brought here from Charleston or
elsewhere. The nights are quite cool,
rendering a little fire, morning and eve
ning, very agreeable; mosquitoes are
seldom seen, and everything is as favor
able as could be desired for the health
and comfort of our citizens. Absen
tees are daily returning, and our mer
cantile friends will find it a most agree
able time to come to the city to buy
goods—stocks are fresh, the weather
agreeable, the late rains have laid the
dust, and our merchants are getting
busy enough to feel in a cheerful hu
mor. Stocks never were better in our
market, embracing everything in the
range of a merchant's wants ; both in
Dry Goods, Groceries, Crockery, Hard
ware, &c. &c. Don't listen for a mo
ment, to idle rumors about fever—we
renew the pledge, we made some weeks
ago, to report the first case that occurs,
and to keep our readers carefully and
promptly posted with the whole truth
in the matter. With weather like die
present, there is no possibility of hav
ing fever here.

Messrs. Thos. P. Stovall, & Co., I
Augusta, Ga. j
Dear Sirs:— I have been using the
Grover & Baker Sewing Machines,
bought of yourselves for nearly- three
months. My wife hail some experience
in the disadvantages of Sewing Ma
chines, when not perfect in their work
ing, she having previously tried two
other patents, and after much persever
ing efforts, lreiug forced to return them
as useless. I was then induced, against
my inclination, to try the Grover & Ba
ker ; which I did, purchasing one of
their low-priced Machines. I had used
this but a few days, when I found that real
Sewing Machines were not to be judged
of, from tho fifteen and twenty dollar pat
ents. I proved my faith in the Grover
6 Baker, by at once exchanging for one
of their highest priced Machines, at one
hundred and thirty dollars. This I
have used to my entire and perfect sat
isfaction. It has become a part of my
family, has vitality, grows almost with
the affection of my wife. And having fully
tried, I now hold it a boon above price
which money cannot value —the great
est blessing which can he bestowed on a
wife—making a pleasure of what has
hietherto been woman's life-long task—
adding health to her cheek, joy to her
heart, and happiness to the domestic
circle. Yours, very truly,
Isaac Levt.

[concluded.]
AVhen she had gone, he turned to
Miss Anderson and asked again for some 1
music.
“Not after such as that magnificent
woman has given us. I would have
given anything to hear her in one of'
my new 6ongs ; I know she could com
pass it and render the notes with all the
sweetness the soft Italian words require.
Who is she and where does she belong?”
“ She is Mrs. Carroll.”
“ Your wife? I thought she was—hut
never mind what I thought. I onlyj
wonder that I never saw her before.—
Why does she not mingle more with the
gay world she is so fitted to adorn ?”
He knew not what to say. It had j
never before occurred to him that Elea-j
nor required any society, or recreation, I
beyond the limits of her own home, and j
he had, of late, forgotten to invite her to I
any place of amusement. Being thrown
entirely on her own resources, Eleanor j
had not looked beyond her books and j
children for entertainment. Gradually [
her husband had been drawn away from |
home, ’till he scarcely spent one eve
ning in the week at his own fire side.
Many a sigh was smothered by the young
wife and mother, as she saw the change {
coming over her husband. A change |
which she knew, as every wife knows,
must result in mutual estrangement. In
vain she devised ways and means of
making his home attractive. Every
thing that taste, ingenuity and skill!
would effect was done, hut all to no pur- j
pose.
At first he spoke only in general j
terms of having spent an agreeable eve- i
i ning with gentlemen of their acquain- i
tance. Then occasionally he mention
ed es having met some pleasant lady, j
or having received an introduction to
'some one, distinguished for some real,'
! j or imaginary virtue. But when rumors
j began to really reach her of Mr. Car
roll's attending parties, or the thea
tre, or opera, for the purpose or with
the hope of meeting some particular
■; ladies, or lady, whom he might happen
|to admire, the wife's resentment rose,
struggle was a hard one. Should
she show, by her actions towards him,
; that she was a neglected wife ? She
was too proud for that; the man who
could willingly leave her aione, ev"C!?! n J
after evening, must be heartless enough
;to rejoice that it pained lier. She was
not prepared to make a coufessiou so
humiliating. He was still scrupulously
1 attentive to all the little conventional
ites of married life ; hut, alas! she felt
' that it was but the form—the spirit was
: gone. And the farewell and the kiss of
’ welcome, on his return, were merely me
’ chanical; it was to habit alone that she
; 1 was indebted for them. The inquiry after
i her health was answered carelessly and in
’ as few words as possible. She only
meant to be polite, and did not really
care how little information her answers
' |conveyed. Still she loved him with all
the depth and fervor of a woman’s
heart, and though her very existence
was bound up in him, she was hut a
woman, and feeling the necessity of
winning him back, she resolved on an
r expedient.
r | Knowing that she was possessed of no
[ | more than ordinary share of attractions,
r ishe determined to make the most of her
, beauty and accomplishments.
It would be better thau to sit mop
ing at home, aud bewailing the fate
which had united her to a man, who
could grow tired of her. With all her
love for her husband she saw one of
5 1his weak points, and determined to
' 'avail herself of it.
I
Things were enhanced in value in his
, estimation, by the approbation , or admira
_ tun of other men. He was uueoncious of
this, but his wife had been made keen
ly sensible of the truth of it—greatly
to her sorrow. This then, was the ma
terial she had to work with,
We will see the result,
jj Ho has been drawn towards Miss An
t jderson by her tasteful style of dress.—
. To-night he could but draw a compari
. sen, greatly in Mrs. Carroll’s favor.—
Then he was charmed with her voice,
. and her skillful performance on the
, piano. To-night he saw his wife the
. cynosure of admiring eyes, and more
, | than all he noted the homage paid her
t by performers even celebrated. Miss
. Anderson too, had expressed her de
f light in terms soo earnest that he could
I not doubt her sincerity. Aud she yield-
I! ed the palm so gracefully that he felt
1 almost grateful to her.
The husband began to see the mistake
r! he had made in admiring fine qualities
; in other women at the expense of one
j who had given up all for him. He felt
i more pride in his wife that night than
he ever had since the early day’s of
' their wedded life. She spent a delight
i fui evening in the society of people
• who could appreciate her goodness, and
i her talent. Brilliant in conversation,
| her spirits exhilirated by the novelty
of the scene, her circle of admirers had
1 not diminished when the hour for retir
ing arrived. She talked gaily on her
way home, went into raptures over her
sleeping cherubs—and with her ‘ ‘good
night,” still ringing in his ears, her 1
husband went to sleep, and dreamed
that an angel had escaped fr»m him, j
and the faster he pursued it, the swifter
its flight was, up, up, through bound
j less space until it was lost in inmensity.
j He waked and attributed the dream to
! his supper, but congratulated himself
on the thoughts that ids “ angel of the
household,” was there beside him.—
For days after there was a respectful
! tenderness in his manner towards Elea
nor, that was very soothing to her
wounded pride and love. Everything
went on smoothly. She could scarcely
forbear smiling, one or two evenings
after the party, when he almost apolo
gised to himself, and to her, for spend
ing the evening at home, by saying he
had letters of importance to write.—
; She noticed too that they were soon
written, and had some sage reflections
about the probability of his having
| time to write twice that much in time
for the mail the next morning,
j She saw that her plan worked well, I
j but like a good general, she resolved to
follow up her advantages, step by 6tep ;
until a complete victory was achieved.
| The next week, a ball in honor of a !
j distinguished senator was to be given.
' She would attend that. It was very
much talked of, so Mr. Carroll did not
! express surprise, when she spoke of
going. Her toilet was different from
! that adopted for the party, but becorn
i ing, and the very perfection of ele-;
; gance. For the first time for yeais, a;
magnificent set of jewels, a bridal gift
from a wealthy relative, was brought
out, aud furnished all that had been
, wanting to make her dress splendid.
This time her husband was warm in}
his praises, and she entered the ball-1
i room with a tinge of vanity coloring
! her fair face. Again people of distinc
j tion gathered around her. Passionate
ly fond of music, as the German band
| struck up one of the immortal Strauss'
waltzes, the color brightened in her
j cheeks till they were all aglow.
’ 1 While she was listening, enraptured
j to the music, the lion of the evening
'; came up and requested the honor of her
j hand, putting an end to her slight hesi
tation, by saying, “ Your husband has
taken the precedence by just claim
ing the hand of that sprightly young
j French girl, though, for some reason,
they are not to commence just now.”
j | Mrs. Carrol looked in the direction
indicated, and saw her husband talking
’ in a lively manner with Mad'lle Girar
deau, one whose name had been cou
j pled with his iu several accounts of
■ I dancing parties, pleasure excursions.
1 : &c, Some said she was a common
*1 danseitee— it may have been that they
’ envied her light and graceful figure,
' i aud buoyant step.
| Eleanor’s face was almost as white as
the snowy camelia iu her boquet. But
5 a rich color suffused her cheeks as she
silently took the proffered arm of the
gentleman ; and as she joined the cir.
'j cle of waltzers, none could tell that she
had felt any excitement whatever.
1 Her husbaud was astonished as she
’ j moved off—her waltzing was an extrav
; agance he had not dreamed of. He watch
-5; ed her graceful movements, so light and
! yet so dignified, until the last feeling
b of annoyance had passed away, and was
3 gazing so intently on her that he
J scarcely heard his companion exclaim—
‘l Monsieur, I am ready now."
I They, too, joined the mazy whril—
they were the next couple to Mrs. Car
-3 roll and her partner ; near enough for
tiie lookers on to compare the two.—
r Mr. Carroll heard many commeuts on
his wife of a very flattering character,
‘ but he was exasperated almost beyond
8 endurance when a little dancing master,
0 towards the close of the evening said,
r in liis hearing uuconscious of his
M proximity—
J | “I should waltz with her myself if I
could—she is the most graceful creature
s in the room—a thousand times more so
• | than that girl her husband is so taken
*' with. Egad, I think I'll try her.”
Mr. Carroll had the satisfaction of
f ' being near euough to see the ape—who
had boasted what a handsome couple
they would make—when he approached
Eleanor and asked the pleasure of her
-! hand for the next waltz. The husband
-! bit his lip in anger ; but Eleanor listen
-1 ed to tiie end of his pretty speech and
- then courteously declined the honor, as
, | the time had come for her to retire ;
8 turning, at the same time, to signify to
8 i her husband her readiness to accompany
B j him home.
1 ; Her liege lord was rather more taci
“ \ turn than usual on their return, and for
‘'reasons best known to himself, the
* most graceful fellow in his set forbore
to make any strictures on waltzing.
From this time, Mr. Carroll evinced
a decided inclination to spend his eve
-21 nings at home, but occasionally Eleanor
’'stepped beyond the house, and always
returned with fresh laurels.
II Now and then an undefined fear flit
> ted across her husband’s mind that she
f; might become a fast woman: But as
- often a thought of his well regulated
! home, his lovely children, and the pure
I and upright principles of his darling
II Eleanor, dispelled the gloomy thought.
' Through the whole winter they went to
i j concerts, and parties, but always to
gether now.
Mr. Carroll had with the help of other
men's eyes discovered many perfections in
his really lovable wife,so that when the
season arrived for our universal exodus,
he was veryjwilling to remain at home,
I and enjoy the comforts of his delightful
residence, and the now charming socie- j
ty of his wile, and children. But before;
he had thought maturely of his plan,;
Mrs. Carroll, expressed a wish to go to
the Springs; she said the children were
well behaved, the nurse kind and faith
ful, so it would be very little trouble toj
take them. Or, if their father prefer
red they might remain with their aunt
at her couutry home about forty miles
from the city.
Mr. Carroll compromised the matter
by saying they would all go together,
to the springs, he thought a change
would be good for the children, but on
their return all would make a visit to
his sister. Then they would come home
and settle down for the winter.
Eleanor wondered what the entire
signification of this “ settling down ”
was.
j To the Springs they went and spent
| two weeks very pleasantly,a third week
they spent with their sister, then Mr..
! Carroll wished to he at home again.— I
J Home was to him from that time for-
J ward the happiest place on earth.—j
There his evenings were spent, during
the cold winter, far more rationally
and pleasantly than many that had pre-j
. ceded them.
One evening, after a few friends had I
taken tea with them and left them
| alone, the husband sat in a comfortable !
| arm chair before the glowing grate, 1
castle building, perhaps at any rate, as
i happy as a reasonable man could wish
! to be—and so we think he might have!
been castle building—the good wife be-1
i side him, her hands clasped in his, her)
cheek resting on his Bhoulder, the little’
J ones asleep in their “ tiny beds ” near 1
them, as he carefully tipped the last
ashes off his cigar, and as carefully
I threw the stump in the glowing coals, ’
• he turned to his wife and said
r | “ Eleanor, darling, we are very hap
i py now, happier than we were last win-!
j i ter, or perhaps at any time since our
marriage.”
’ i “ Certainly more so than for several
) winters past ; yes dear, we are very,
j very happy.” “By the way, my love,
| we do not attend any parties now, I have
j scarcely thought of that before.”
j “ I have no wish to go out, Charles,
’ i and you too must be happy, at home. ”
There was a turmuless earnestness in the
wife’s voice that made her husband look
’ up, a new light dawned on him.
“ You did it, my good angel, blind,
blind,that I was,l have been more bless
ed than I deserved. But we are one
’ j now." 1
“ One” was the low reply sealed with
i a kiss.
’; She had done it.
Reader is there no moral ? Perhaps
I not, if there were you would see it.
