The said nervous individual writes; “Let our people avoid rash utteran ces. They do no good; they hurt us. Let us be right and stick hunly to the right. Let us have no hand ia wrong; l*nt let us be prudent. Let us abuse nobody! Let us have no harsh words to lavish on those who differ from us. Let us devote ourselves to our materi al enterprises. Let us start railroads and manufactories. Lot men work and improve their fortunes. When good men come among us, give them the right hand of fellow-ship; welcome them among: you, no matter what their views, or politics, or antecedents. Bury the war. VVipe away its said vestiges. Kebuild its ruins. Forget its bitter ness and cling tenderly to its soft mem oties.” Oh ! for heaven’s sake, says the La- Grange Importer, “let us” be prudent and dont hurt anybody’s feelings be cause they may have an idiosyncrasy to regard us as barbarians as many of the Puritan Yankees do. Now, be it known to all men, to the sons of the Pilgrim Fathers, and tbe Puritans of New England in particular, that even they can live among us in peace and perlectsecurity, whatever tnay be their political iuclinations or utterances And b« it further known unto those people, that if they come among us de termined on gaiu or enterprise, not at tempting to force their peculiarities up on the Southern people, they may en joy the largest liberty of person and esprefsion ol sentiment unmolested, un harmed, “unhonored and unsung.’’. And be it further known unto those people, that we cordially invito all cap italists and industrious persons among them “who wish to live anew life,” obeying the Lor.d in holiness of con i'. nduct, keeping that which of right belongs to them and ‘ handling not the unclean thing,” desiring to live a righteous life by attending to their own business and letting other people’s alone; by keeping good company and mingling socially with the decent peo ple of the country, and eschewing evil persons who come among us, with carpet bags in hand, only to create disorder and discoritenl; we say to such, and only such, we extend a cor dial invitation to them to come and live with us, and be of us, and we will give them a hearty wclcomovvhen they come. “Let us have peace.” How a Planter Saved his Cot ton. An intelligent planter of Alabama entirely escaped the lavages of tbe cater; ilia? last year, although it destroy ed the cottoj upon every other planta tion in his country llis crop was the finest he ever raised. The caterpillar came up to the fields of all his next door neighborhood, but they did not cross bis fences. The reason for this was be issued the sternest orders that not a single bird, except the jty, should be killed on his plantation under any pretext whatever. He allowod little willow groves to grow in his fields, and to them he sent a sack of oats every morning, which were scattered upon the ground Tbe birds fed upon tbe oats, and swarmed in thousands around his fields. They exterminated the cot ton fly. And hence there were no eggs, there were no caterpillars; there were no larve; but there was a blnonaiug gar den in the midst of a blighted wilder ness. There is no evil without its rem edy; there is nodisease without a cure Wo know of no species of bird which ought to be killed off, except the com mon jay. They are deadly enemies and the common murderers of almost every species of the feathered tribe. They rob nests, suck tbe eggs, rob them of tbe young and eat them. These or nithological canibals should be killed for this reason.

A queer place to make a bargain, ‘ruly, but there’s many a harder cue tomor for the thirsty man to deal with than out honest friend the old Pump. John Ashworth, in bis Tenth Annu al Report of the “Chapel for the Des titudo,” Rochdale, England, tells tbe following good story of one of tbe flan nel weavers there, who made a very good bargain with the pump. “This man had saved a guinea for tbe express purpose of having a whole week’s fuddle He began on Mon day, spending three shillings per day for seven days; on the morning of the eighth day ho was burning with thirst, but his money was gone. He went to the back door of the drunkery where he had spent every farthing of his guinea, to bog a pint on trust. Judy, the landlady, was mopping the pas sage; be stood looking at Judy, with his cracked lips, parched tongue, an 1 bloodshot eyes, expecting her to ask him to take just a drop; but she did not, and he requested her to trust him for enly one pint. With an indignant look of scorn and contempt, she re plied : “ ‘Trust thee! thou dirty, idle vaga bond; set a step in this house, and I will dash this mop in ihy face.’ “The poor wretch hung down his bead in shame. He was leaning against a pump; and, after e. little study, be gan to talk to the pump. ‘Well, Pump,’ he said, ‘I have not spent a guinea with thee; Pump, wilt thou trust me a drop?’ He lifted up the bundle, put his burning mouth to the spout, and drank to bis fill; this done he again said to the pump: “ ‘Thank thee, Pump; and now, hear me, Pump. I will not enter a public house again for the next seven years, so help me God ; and, Pump, thou art a witness.' “The bargain was kept, and this man afterwards became a respectable manufacturer and often said, ’lt was a grand thing for him that Judy threat ened to dash the mop iu his face.’ ” Many a poor fellow would do well to stop trading at the bar, and try a bargain with the Pump; and many others who have traded at the bar till they can trade there no longer, might go and do likewise. A Case of Trance. A young girl twelve years old, near Burlington, Ratine county, Wis., has been in a trance about three weeks.— She had a severe attack of measols and diptheria, and had nearly recovered on iha Bth day of January, when she called her father to her bedside and told him she was going to sleep, and that she should sleep for a iong, long lime. She said she should look as though she was dead, but she ehould not be dead, and she made her father promise that he would not bury her. Soon after making this request, the child apparently died. The body was enshrouded and placed in a aofl/n, but it showed no signs of death, although the heart ceased to move, and nothing showed that the respiratory organs were in use. The eyes closol. In this Ltate ihe girl has lain now for twenty days without a si K n of life and no sign of death, other than tbe sink ing of tho cheeks and eyes, which would, he natural with one tvho had fasted for so long a period. In the early pari of last week a vein was tap ped arid blood flowed as naturally as it would in a living ptreon. A blister raised on the flesh precisely as it would on that of one alive. A person pressed a finger on the hund of the girt, Her flesh was solid, and upon takiug away th* finger, the spot was white. Iu a few seconds the color crime again, pre cisely as it would if the flesh of a liv ing person were pressed in the same manner. Tho case is attracting much attention among the medical faeuity of Wisconsin. It wi.l bo watched care fully to the end. A largo number ol persons have visited the house and ex pressed themselves as lost iu wonder. Outrages mid Crime. A horrible and revolting outrage was perpetrated at Mount Vernon, Ala., a day or two sir.ee, by a negro named Mack, upon two little white children the eldest not more than elev en years ot age The fiendish act crea ted an intense excitement in the com munity, which wus also shared by the negroes. The country was scoured in every direction, and the monster cap lured. After consult atioa tbe case was left in the hands of an impromptu ne gro jury, who, after a full hearing, sen tenced tbe prisoner to be hung, which sentence was executed on tbe spot 'J he negroes near Kingston, N. (J., are beseiging that town and threaten, in their indignation at the recent lynch ing of five negroes, to burn tbe town and release all the prisoners in jail.— Pickets are stationed in the suburbs by the white people and a reign ofter ror exists. Another horrible outrage occurred in Duplin county, N. 0 , Sun day. A white man who fired upon a party of negroes, attempting to violate the persons of some young lidies, was murdered in his house the following night, and b»« body cut in halves and hung up in the room in which he slept No arrests have been made in either of these c/ses. Lawlessness and anarchy exist in this entire section of the couu try. A couple celebrated tbeir silver wedding a few days ago, of whom it is said they never exchanged a harsh word during tbeir wedded life of twenty five years We would state, for the benefit of those to whom this may seem incredible, that tbej are deaf mutes. Yol. IV No. JL. Tlw-Voting .Tien of the South. The following eloquent appeat to the young men of the South, in from the pen pf I*en. i>. 11. Hill : “Now is the auspicious time to begin in our desolate but still beautiful South, to correct false notions about tbe ser vile naturo of work. Those with ub who have no need to work with their own hands generally, beloug to that class who shrank from the hardships of the march and the dangers of the battlefield. ’I heir purple fine linen tell ot speculation and extortion, the widow’s tears, the orphan’s wail and the dead soldier’s! Away with them ! Pov erty is cow the badge of nobility. It speaks eloquently of heroism, patriot ism oblivions of self and selfiish inter est; generous saorifice of everything upon tho altar of the country. No blazoned coat of arms ever so plainly proclaimed honorable blood as doe* that old faded uuiform.—Take heed. O, ye heroes of many a hard fought field, lest you should bring a stain upon your bright escut cheon. There is a cowardice which shrinks from duty as well as a cowar— dioe shrinks from danger. This jnst as unmanly to fear “the world’s droad laugh, as it ia to fear the shot and shell of an enemy’s battery. It is just as ignoble to neglvct the obligations at home as to evade the service owing to the country. You have been true to the land of your birth-, bo true to those who are bone of your boae and flesh of your flesh. Your mothers, wives r and sweet hearts have not blushed for your want of manhood in the field t let them not blush for your effeminacy and siothfulnoss at the fireside.
