The M :, lcgev ; 'le Union Beeorder
has discovered the following circum¬
stances and moral; We bear people
say on every hand, “I never saw
money as tight as it is now; I can’t
pay your little b n l now for I’m bust,
ed, • ’ Yet there never was more trav¬
eling about for the pleasure of seeing
sights, and spending^ money than
there is right now. It is not the rich
either, in the main, as might be sup¬
posed, who are thus scattering a few
surplus dollars, but the pleasure-
seekers, and the people now taking
‘ outing” are principally people
known at home as poor people in
strained circumstances. Either this
class have “meat ye know not of,”
or they sum tacky in having friends to
he’p them throw money away, or
else “there is a lie out somewhere.”
A man who honestly strives to pay
his honest debts, and proves it by his
dally self-denial, and struggles to live*
but finds it impossible to do so and
keep body rad soul together, de¬
serves indulgence, but the man who
has the money to pay bis debts ard
wont pay them, bet lavishes his
secret wealth on h 5 s family or himself
for frivolties or the gratification of
some personal pleasure, is the mean¬
est man on God’s green earth.

Adjt-Gen. McIntosh Kell, of Atlan¬
ta, in speaking of the Confederate
cruiser Sumter, recently said: “The
brave little Sumter has been too
much overshadowed by the brilliant
exploits of the Alabama.” A North-
era protectionist manufacturer of
history to , order, says that “for
raven months” the Sumter “did fear¬
ful work w th the Union merchant
men.” These big merchantmen,
every one of which could have almost
stored theSumter away In herhold,
never dreamed that their ever-vigi¬
lant and invincible foe was a rotten
hu'l that every wave threatened to
send te the bottom. “Below her
waterline,” said Gen. Kell, who was
her lieutenant, “she was a pretty
snug and sound little craft, but I
could kick her bows in, she Mas
so unseaworthy.’' 'She was a mere
speck of black hnlk and white sail,
as«he flitttd like a sea gull or alba,
tross amid the islands of the Carib¬
bean. Her commander, as daring a
seaman as any v king of Nonray,
would not venture with her beyond
•asy reach of port. She could not
stand the swe'l even of that shut-in
sea, and dung to the shores of the
Antities, watching for her prey. She
was a good sailor. She was all
wings rad like the tireless swift albatross \
moved before a breath of wind
like a spirit of the waves. None of
the magnificent ships, upon which
she swooped like an osprey from the
sheltering c'iffs of the Caribbean,
ever escaped ber pursuit. Her lines,
■aid Gen. Kell, Mere beautiful. The
waves fell from ber graceful bows
with scarcely a murmur, so keenly did
her prow cleave them in twain. The
breete that fairiy flapped the top
gallants of the freighted merchant¬
man, sent the Sumter, light as
thistle down, flying with wide stretch¬
ed wing, from crest to crest of the
friendly b’ffows. In Jnne, 1861,
Captain Semmi s and his friend and
sharer in all honor, Lieutenant Me.
Intosh Kell, ran the the blockade at
New Orleans. The little craft had
been purchased for the purpose of
cruising after and preying upon the
federal merchantship. She was poor¬
ly suited for the task. Unseaworthy
and too fraff to venture out from the
shore, she cohld not hope to
match hersel* against any ship that
showed plur'r enough to fight her,
She sailed aw’ftly along the gulf
coast, sped silently into the sail-
covered waters of the Caribbean
islands and Antilles. Her prey was
plentiful. Bksbly freighted ships,
bearing wealth to the merchant
princes and substances tothe armies
of the North passed close to the
American cyclades, often seeking the
harbor toy repairs or water. The
Sum ter was everywhere. She kindled
bonfires of federal ships on the bosom
of the Caribbean as she swept almost
si’ently on her career of triumph.
Every port, every sheltering cliff,
every wave of the sea knew ber saiis
and her prow. For seven months
she preyed at will upon the merchant
fleet of ber foe. #
No ship of her size, ber frailness
and her armament ever did such
havoc.
