Wiggins nnd some hflittr fool niggers, the world tvav to come to tin end yesterday evening, or words to that i licet. We do not get onr duties on the day they are printed, and of course wo could not lie expected to know nliout it until two days after tho occur rence. What wo want to know now is, did it tako place? Is it all over? If it diil, this is the judgement day and we can’t possibly get, there before to-mor row. ♦ • ♦ Where to Voto. Wejhnvo boon railed on several times recently for nn opinion as to whether a voter could cast his ballot except in his own precinct. -We have looked into the matter, and we find nothing either in the constitution or laws that would prevent. A voter can cast his voto for Governor or Btate House oUlcers any where in Ihefcslato; for Senator any where in the Senatorial district in which lie lives; and for ' Representative any where in tho county of his residence. That is our view of the law as it now ex ists. Constitutional "Amendments At thoelootion that comes ofl through - out the state next Wednesday, the Gov ernor has, by proclamation, ns tho law required hint to do, submitted to the people for ratification or rejection, two amendments, to onr state constitution. These amendments have been passed by two-thirds of each branch of two con secutive legislatures, and if now ratified by the people will become a part of the fundamental law of the land, f f rejected by the people that is an end to it. Tho first of these refers to local hills, and so'amouds the constitution as to al low local bills to originate in the Senate • as well as in the House; abolishes the ; committee on local bills/ and all that there is in the constitution on tiie sub ject of local bills, except the provision fur publication of the notice that they will bo introduced. The other araond mentjputs it in tho power of the legis lature to make provision for disabled Confederate soldiers, other than those who have lost a litub. You are not obliged to vote ou these amendments to make your vote legal. But you can do ao if you wish. Josiuh Allen's Wife has written two new stories for tho Philadelphia Lames’ Homs Jot'UNAi, Ano Praiticad HorsE KBKrKK, oue of them, “The Charity of the Johcsvillians," is characteristic, and one of tho best things written by Jo sub's wife. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps contributes “An Old Fashioned Moth er," a story of exciting interest, and a good lesson for the girls. In November, Marion Harlaud's new story “Relations in-law.” commences. It is one of her best and is of particular interest to young married people or tlioco contem plating matrimony. A series of lectures to young women, by Rev. F. E. Clark, of Boston, on “A Young Woman's Right's," “Frivolity and Flirtation,” “Getting Married," etc., will run through t-iie t \t six mouths, and are of gri at inten t to onr daughters.

Tho “Wave o’ tho Hen,” by Marian C. L. Reeves, grows in interest. “An Old Man's DarliDg," by Elizabeth Phipps Train, a new contributor, is well worthy of perusal. “Two Days in June,” by K. V. Talbot, is a bright littio story. “Tho Great Scamperton Fair,” by L. A. Oorry, is concluded, all the complications being a raveled at last. Several other stories and poems complete the literury matter. Among the latter, “Fallen L uves, ” by Emil Ludekens, is espec ially worthy of consideration. The Fash ion Notes give many seasonable hints npon autumn styles, and also treat upon different ways of decorating our homes. Godey’h increases each month in inter est. W. E.

The Usual Result. } It is not to be denied that a good sew ing machine is one of tho most impor tant appurtenances of the modern house hold. We thought wo bad a good machine ! until one day the agent of theJWui Home ! presented himself at our door and pro ceeded to deliver an oral ion upon its characteristic merits. “But,” wo answered, "our machine suits us well and we. do not cure for an other, The agent, however, begged the priv ilege of leaving one of his machines with us, “for tho Indies to try." The request was not unreasonable, so wo granted it—but more to oblige the agent than anything else; for wo really did not want the machine, and had not the remotest idea of buying it. Tho machine once in the house, it was natural that the ladies should look it | over; they did no, and as a consequence fell in love with it. They say that with out tho slightest wish to decry or dispar age any other machine, this, nil things considered, is, in tle-ir opinion, the most desirable one to be had. This unrivalled ninehii • is manufact ured by the NEW HOME FHWING MACHINE ('()., Orange, Mass,, and 30 Union Square, Now York. CORRESPONDENCE. Reidintf. Several times have 1 heard strangers, while makiugnsl ort stay in this portion of country, express surprise at (he dress and manners of onr young people which j they found so much more tasty and nel i ished than they expected in our wire- I grass section, ami to compliment them I by saying that they were quite equal to places which lmd had much greater ad- I vantages. 1 felt proud for them, and also feel glad that I think I have the key to tho secret. It is reading, and tho object of this letter is to try and im press upon all and especially the young, the importance of the right sort of read ing. I have seen girls and boys, and even old married people, spend hours reading love stories and trashy novels. Now, 1 do not dispute but that the ex perience of many during tlioir courtship and early marriage have been tvs bene ficial to the young as on any other sub- 1 jeet, but the greater portion of what is printed as suvdi in my opinion never hap pened. In them life is painted out in either such angelic or demoniacal forms that the reader is often led to form an ideal for future life far beyoud tlie reach of humanity. This is one of the great est reasons why, after a few months of married life, s> many eye* !o e their brightness, so many tones their sweet ness and tunny lips are heard to say that “marriage is not what it is cracked up to be." There is one feature in the' Monitor, onr own county paper, which I cannot refrain from complimenting Hint is the ahssnse of that usual love story on the first page of secular papers. Instead of it, what do we find? A ser mon! from one of the ablest divines of our day. Eternity only will show the good the editor is doing by each week sending out these morsels of the “bread of life" to the people of our country. Good reading is of the greatest advan tages to all classes. These that are in constant contact with the outer world need it to brace them against the power of evilcouimuuieatious and t > strengthen their influence for good. Those who are confined at home need it for infor mation ou 1 to prevent them from grow ing narrow minded and selfish. If you have not a love for reading 1 know of nothing better to b-gia with than - f newspapers. Through them we get the best ideas of the ripest miuds of our loaders, both in church and state, in a shorter ami more interesting way than through books or long essay, which will be interesting after v.e have trained our miuds in that direction. Bat with all, never neglect your Bible. Yon can acquire a greater love for it day by day, the same as any other reading, and it is the greatest comfort in all trials, the j greatest light in all joys and the only | guide through tho valley and shadow of death. Now, let mo beg you, as one i that, feels for your temperal and eternal i welfare, to read—bot carefully select it ho that yon will not only receive the commendation of appearing well in this life, but, “when your mortal shall have put oa immortality” yon will be able to wear the “wedding garment" that will insure yon u seat at tho marriage supper of the Lamb. A Friend to Long Pond, ✓ Red Bluff. A good shower this week has revived everything, and will help to mature the fall crops. The farmers have spent more time than usual in gathering liny this season. There is more good forage wasted on the farms by neglecting to save hay, tliau a great many formes save. If onr farmers would fertilize their stubble land well, broad cast, and turn the stubble under, the crop of hay would be worth more than the oat crop. The hay is much better than fodder, and if farmers would turn their attention to this matter, it would keep thousands of dollars in country that now goes to western markets for western hay, which is an inferior ar ticle to our Georgia raised liny, Charles Beugnot is ou a visit to Darien and Savannah. 11, H. Williams, of Jit. Vernon, was ou a visit to Red Bluff last week. Charles William's u< w house at lied Bluff is nearing completion. J. 11. Darley of lied Bluff is building a new house, and the hammer and saw can be heard aronud hero every day. Cnpf. Henry, of the steamer Laurens, took advantage of the lute rise in the river, uial made a tiip to this place last week. Our community is again blessed with good health. B. & C. From Lothair. Mycnnoa is drifting along now in peace and quietude. The stupendous waves of the mighty Rubicon of time have subsided to a grout extent, and that which threatened to upset my frail imrk, has prov ! to be nothing more than 1 a few white cups which only caused the j oars to squeak. But that could he easily | overcome, and the friction removed, if t only had a little of the oil of spoit-sbro j lix to apply to the machinery. That *' lubricating stuff, however, is very scarce, j and makes it a long time between drinks. Last M.-n ! y was a gala day for the old and yonug who assembl'd at Mr. ; John Miller’s mill pond, to cutch and ; e«t fish. By means of evaporation, ab i sorption ami constant use, the water in the pond had become qnito low, and ! tho casualties to trout and bream was ; immense. The dinner table groaned | limit r the burden of good tilings pre i oared try tho hands of those wo love, unt ample justice was done to the ocea i siou. The time and arrangements were ! made, ami set apart by our young friend Archie Miller, to whom I am especially j indebted for courtesies, iie knows ex actly how to get up something nice, and j never fails to do so when opportunity presents itself. The Methodist nml Baptist churches : which have been in course of construc tion for some time are nearing comple tion, and Mr. Winhaiu, pastor of the Baptist church, is now carrying on au in teresting meeting. Our Schools, both literary and Sab bath School, nro in n tlourshing condi tion. Prof. D. is banging along right side up with care, and like bad money, ho is always ou hand. He says he would like to bo u candidate, and have a county office, blit the people won't, solicit him as they do others. Theeaudi dates all say they are solicited, nud may be they are, I can’t tell because I do not know. But I have thought if some fel low would just elbow me a little, I would 1 run for something myself, and say I was solicited, but it is no use, it is hard for a man to be ejected for anything these days, unless he is on the good side of the ladies, and one lady (woman) has already said that 1 was meaner than the devil, and ought to have died long ago, but through the mercies of a kind Provi dence, the protection and patronage of friends I tun here ret, exclaiming like Daniel of old Father f< reive such peo ple for they kt w ant what they siyeth!

Fortner Scraps. Well, I like to have forgot to write to day. It’s now mail time, atrfl I can’t say much. There was a candidate 'in town one day this week. They are awfully pleas ant, and are everybody's friends, from the warm shake they give all lay the hand. Poisoning dogs is the order of the day | here, by suite wicked people. As two j dogs and one bog died herein about one | hour, we began to think that a strvch- I uine tree was growing near. I believe I’ll get up a few more sub- J scribers at this place for the Monitor. j What say you, Mr. Editor? So good bye ’till next week. Scrap. [What we say to the above proposition is, that if anything could 4 raise “Scrap” |in (onr estimation as a correspondent, lit would be just that. Certainly, please | attend to it at once. If there are any | in your community who do not take the j Monitor, and who ought to, please see them and get their names.] ■«.«. ((Swift Creek. Ed. Monitor:— lf you will allow me space in your columns, I will give you i a few more dots aud blotches. Dry weather* is at last here. The j farmers have been smiling but have now I begun to complain. The Baptist association is at hand and all the sewing machines are busy as bees. Sugar cane is very sweet and juicy, j aud the girls are pretty and saucy. Candidates are nearly as plenty as liens in a bog bed. Mr. O. O. Hamilton is still on the car pet, but Mr. James Benton is fixing to step off. The fish are faring badly, since the waters have became so low. What a fine time to pick peas. The screech-owl is muttering, and the pocket must be turned. The cholera has destroyed nearly all the bogs in this section, andj the hog merchants will have a fine time swiu | filing the south. The earthquake is over, and cursing is in circulation again. A Pinky Woods Boy at Home. AdamEville. Miss Sophie McLeod, one of Adnms ville’s charming young? ladies, has re turned from a visit to Ited Bluff. We | are truly glad to have Miss Sophie at home again. Mr. John Adams says he has taught, 'somebody how to farm; but l hardly think lie knows how himself. .'lr. Honor Rogers has been quite '.ink, but is some better. I bear that our clever friend J. A. Dos ter lias quit running for Tax Collector. We bad an idea that he would be elected. Mr. Charlie Mcßae is quite sick, so we hear. I am sorry to say it, but onr Sunday School is iu a bufi condition. About I one month ago, it consisted of a nice Superintendaut Secretary, Chorister aud about forty scholars. For the last few Sundays, about half the scholars. Chor ister and Secretary have been absent, if they are sick, we hope for them a speedy recovery, for we need them all, aud especially our .Chorister, for we are poor singers. Mr. Eddie Armfield, of Red Bluff, spent a few hours iu our little ville last week. Violet. Lott. On Monday last Rev, M. Morrison I (col.) left this place for Northt-Carolina, where bis family resides. Elder Mor rison is a man of great abilities. For 1 uine months past he has been in the em ployment of Mcßae A Pritchett, during which time he has done much good in evangelizing the people of this section. We regret his departure, but wish him ; a safe journey to his old home, and wish for him to return. He leaves myself and many dear friends to mourn his ab sence. Desiring to illustrate the use of the hyphen in my school the other day, I used the word bird-nest, and asked what the hyphen was for. Avery small boy replied “for the bird to roost on.” S. C.
