It is claimed that rats may bo ef
fectually driven away by powdering
with common rod pepper the holes
through which they got into housos.
So simple a way of ridding a placo oi
vermin ought at least to bo tried.
An Eloquent Extract.
“Generation after generation,” says
a fine writer, “have felt as we now
feel, and their lives wore as active as
our'own. They passed liko vapor,
whilo nature wore the same aspect of
beauty as when her Creator command
ed her to be. The heavens shall be
as bright over our graves as they are
now around our paths. The world
will have the same attractions for our
off-spring yet unborn as she had once
for our children. Yet in a little while
all will have happened. The throb
bing heart will be stillod, and all will
bo at rest. Our funeral will" wnd the
way; and prayers will be said, and
thonwe shall bo left alone in silonco
and in darknoss for tho worms. And,
it may bo, for a short time we shall
bo spoken of, but tho things of tho
world will cieep in, and our names
will soon be forgotten. Days will
continue to move on, and laughter and
song will bo heard in tho room in
which wo died; and tho eyes that
mourned for us will be dried, and glis
ten again with joy, and ovon our child
ren will cease to think of us, and will
not remember to lisp our names.”
The Power of Children.
A man was leaning, very much in
toxicated, against a tree j somo little
girls coming from school saw him
there, and at once said to each other,
‘What shall we do for him ?’
Presently said one, ‘Oh, I’ll tell you :
let’s sing him a temperanco song.’
And so they did, collecting around
him, they sang,
"A way the bowl, swny the bowl,”
and so on, in beautiful tones. The
poor fellow enjoyed the singing, and
when they had finished that son said,
‘Sing again, little girls : sing again.’
‘Wo will,’ they said, ‘if you sign tho
temperance pledge.”
‘No, no; we are not at a temper
ance meeting; there are no pledges
hero.’
‘I havo a pledge,’ cries one ; ‘and I
have a poncil,’ cries another, and,
holding up tho pledge and pencil, they
urged him to sign it
‘No, no; I won’t sign now. Sing
for me.’ So they sang again,
“The drink that’s in the drunkard’s bowl
Is not the drink for me.”
‘Oh, do sing again,’ said he, as ho
wiped the tears from his eyes.
•No,’ said they, ‘unless you sign the
pledge ; sign, it is for you,’
He pleaded for tho singing, but
they wore firm, and declared they
would go away if ho would not sign.
‘But,’ said the poor follow', striving
to find an excuse, ‘there’s no table
here; how can I write without a table
At this a modest, quiet pretty little
creaturo with a finger on hor lips, and
said, ‘Yes, you can spread the pledge
on the crown of your hat, and I’ll
hold it for you.’ Off went the hat,
tho little child hold it, aud tho pledge
was signed, and the little ones burst
out with,
"Oh, water for mo, bright water for me V 9
I heard that man in Worcostor
town hall, with uplifted hands and
quivering lips say, ‘I thank God for
the sympathy of those little children
of morcy to me.’
A Wonmu’s Ds fcuor.
For myself, I should be thankful to
return to the habits of our grand
mothers, buy a bonnot which would
do to woar ton years ; have throe dress
es, two for ever day and ono for“nieo,”
a nd wear them year after year, till
they are worn out, without alteration;
also twiuo up my hair in a plain wad
ot the back of my head. I should
then have more time for reading and
study, and more time to spend in
hooks, pictures, and traveling, to say
nothing of the unlimited time and
money for doing good. And I know
I ver y many women who would only
. too happy to throw aside the woa
-0301,16 shacklos of fashion. But what
wou ld bo the result ? With the maid
cu, 1,0 more t nux ; with the wife, a
cessation of devotion on tho part of
er husband—results too dire to be
contemplated for a moment. I speak
*hat I know and testify what I have
soen : and have myself been to parties
sensibly and economically clad, and I
* as . despised and rejected of men;
?mn, I have been moro fashionably
ad expensively attired, and I had
ere beaux than I knew what to do
with. By the way, why don’t some
the wise an( j sensible bachelors
court and marry among the vast army
forking girls ? They are dressed
imply, and are accustomed to habits
0 enonomy. They would be glad
B°°d homes, and would
' , e xcollent wives. They are per
oaally attractive, and I doubt not.
' e , < l u *h e as refined and intelligent
of fashionable women,
for ii 18 lero n °h a greater demand

Nobility.
BY AUCB CABY.
. True worth la In being, not seeming
In doing each day that goes by
Some little good—not In the dreaming
Os great things to do by and by.
For whatever men say lu blindness,
And spite of the fancies of youth
There's nothing so kingly as kindness
Aud nothing so royal as truth.
We got back our mete as we measure—
We cannot do wrong and feel right -
Nor can we glvepain and gain pleasure,
For just d' avenges each slight.
The air for the wing of the sparrow,
The bush for the robin and wien,
But alway (lie path that Is narrow
straight, for thcohildrcn of men,
’Tis not in the pages of story
Tho heart of its ills to beguile,
Though he who makes courtship to glory
Gives all that he hath for her smile.
For when from her heights he has won her,
Alas I it is ouly to prove
That nothing's so sacred as honor,
Aud nothing so loyal as love.
We cannot make bargains for blisses,
Nor catch them like Ashes iu nets,
And sometimes the tiling our life misses,
Helps more than the thing which it gets.
For good iietll not in pursuing,
Nor of gaining of great nor of small,
But jußt m the doing, and doing
As we would be done by, is all.
(ting.
Through envy, through malice, through ha-
Agaiust the world, early and late,
No Jot of our courage abating—
Our pait is to work aud to wait."
And.slight is the ating of his trouble
(Those winniugs are less than his worth ;
For he who is honest is noble,
Whatever his fortunes or birth.
A GREAT WORK.
How Obstructions arc Being
Removed from llie James Ri
ver.
The Richmhnd Tffiig givos an inter
resting account of I’rofossffr Maille
fort,s operations on James river. Af
ter describing tho sensation produced
by tho shock of an explosion under
water, which was followed by tho up
heaval of broken timbers, mud and
stone, and resulted in the removal of
two “cribs ,’’about two hundred yards
distant from each other, it says: “The
surface of the river in every direction
was by this covered with fragments of
huge timbers, which for nearly ton
years have obstructed navigation and
perpetuated tho enegy and earnestness
of our Confederate engineers. Where
there were only three foot of water be
fore, there are now eighteen feet.
There wore originally twenty cribs
placed in three rows across tho chan
nel ; of these nineteen have boon re
moved by Prof. Maillefert, and only
one remains, viz: that on which rests
tho reck of the Confederate Gunboat
Northampton. This, although not in
the contract, will be removed at an
early day. Those cribs are pens 18
feet by 25 feet, and are 28 feet .deep.
Their wooden frames, which wore 8 ife
ly secured by strong iron rods, were
constructed of timber 24 iuchos by 18
inches, and were filled with stone—
tho estimate for each crib being over
400 tons. It usually requires four
explosions to a crib, although yester
day throe were found sufficient in one
instance. These suffieo not only to
break up tho wooded framework but
to create four craters in tho bottom of
the river immediately at the angles of
“tho crib” into which the stone is
thrown by repeated shocks, thereby
preventing it from bocoining an ob
struction in tho channel. All of tho
floating timber and other dobris is re
moved to the shore, and such logs as
are sobbed and sunk are fished up and
similarly disposed of. In addition to
the obstructions nainod, Prof. Maillo
fort has removed from tho
Drewry’s Bluff tho wrecks of tho Cur
tis Peck, two schooners, two barges
and one ‘lighter,’ all of which, except
the steamer were filled with stone be
fore being sunk. The contract re
quired him to complete this important
work, which was to give us eighteen
feet water in a channel two hundred
and fifty foot wide, in ninoty days,
ending the 20th of the present month.
And, although tho weather has been
such as to occasion all sorts, of delays,
he will be able to complete it as prom
ised. The work at Drewry.s Bluff,
for example, not including tho remo
val of the wreck of the Northampton,
will require, it is estimated, two days
more: that at Graveyard Bend’ about
tho same time, and that at ‘Worwiek,s
Bar’ perhaps le*ss- Iu this connection,
we are gratified at being able to state
by authority that the work of onlarg
the Dutch Gap Canal is now under
contract the American dredging
Company becoming tho contractors—
and operations will bo commenced
early next month. Tho Canal is to he
one hundred feet wide at tho bottom
and one hundred and fifty feet wide
at the top, with a depth of fifteen
feet.”
A young Hoosier once said to a
Hoosieress, ‘-Sal is there any body
courtin’ you now ?” And sal replied:
“Well, Sam, there is ono feller sorter
courtin’ mo and sorter not, but I reck
on it is moro Borter not than sorter.”
A West Virginia paper reports that
the people of that State are emigra
ting to the West to “a fearfnl extent, ’
and that everybody seems to wish to
go out because nobody is coming in.
It appeals to the Legislature to take
immediate measures to attract immi
grants.
The “most married' 1 woman of
which there is any rocord, was un
doubtedly the Harlem woman, spoken
of by Evelyn in his diary, whose pro
pensity for marrying hail finally to be
checked by law. She married her
twenty-fifth husband and being now a
widow, was prohibited to marry in the
future.
DAWSON, GA., THURSDAY MARCH 2, 1871.
Nearing the other Shore.
When, after a weary voyage that I
first made across the ocoan, sick and
loatbsomo, I arose one morning and
went upon the deck, holding on,
crawling, thinking I was but a worm,
I smelt in the air somo strango smell,
and I said to the Captain, ‘Wlmt is
the odor ?’ ‘lt is tho land-breeze from
off Ireland.’ I smelt the turf, I smelt
tbe grass, I smelt the leaves, and all
my sickness departed from me; my
eyos grow bl ight, my nausea was gone.
The thought of the nearness of land
came to mo, and cured mo better than
medicine eould euro me. And when
afar off I saw a dim line of land, joy
came and gavo mo health, and from
that moment I had neither sickness or
trouble; I was coming nearer to tho
land.
Oh ! is there not for you, old man,
and for you, wearied mother, a land
breeze blowing off from heaven, wnft
ing to you somo of its sweotness ? Bo
hold, tho garden of the Lord is not
far away ; I know from the air. Be
hold the joy of home ! Do I not hear
the children shout ? The air is full of
music to our silent thought. Oh, how
full of niusic when our journey is al
most done, and wo stand upon tho
bound and precinct of that blosssed
land ! —Hold on to your faith. Be
lieve more firmly. Take hold by
irajer aud. faith. Away with trou
bles and buifetings. Bo happy, you
are saved. In a few hours visions of
God and all the realities of tho eter
nal world shall be yours, and you
shall be saved with an everlasting sal
vation.
Manners.
Young folks should be mannerly.
How to be so is tho question. Many
a good boy and girl feel that they can
not bohave to suit thcmsolvos in the
presence of company. They feel tim
id, bashful and self-distrustful the
moment they are addressed by a stran
ger, or appear in company. Thore is
but one way of getting over this feel
ing and acquire graceful and easy
manners, that is, to do tho host they
can at hope, as well as abroad. Good
manners are not learned from arbitra
ry teaching as much as acquired from
habit They grow upon us by uso.
We must be courteous, agreetthle, civ
il, kind, gentlemanly and womanly at
homo, and then it will sooif becomo a
kind of second nature to bo so every
where. A course, rough manner at
home begets a habit of roughness,
which wo can not lay off if we try,
when we go among strangers. The
most agreeable people wo have over
known in the country are those that are
perfectly agreeable at home. Home
is the school for all the best things, es
pecially for good manners.
lloiv Old are You ?
There is a good deal of amusement
in the following magic table of figures.
It will enable you to tell bow old the
young ladies are. Just hand this ta
ble to a young lady and request ,hor
to toll you in which column or columns
her ago is contained,, add together tho
figures at tho top of tho colurns in
which her age is found, and you have
tho great secret. Thus suppose her
ago to be seventeen, you willjfind that
number in the first and fifth columns,
and the first, figures of these two col
ums addod make seventeen. Hero is

Mrs. Emborling, of Prairie City,
Illinois, a few evenings since, followed
her husband into a village saloon,
armed with an ax. Finding him en
gaged with several others playing
cards, she smashed the table with her
ax, scattered the cards, piled up the
astonished players, and carried off her
husband, who had not the pluck to in
terfere.
Mark Twain, whose horse was so
thin that he had to lean against a tree
to think, was considerably beaten by
a long cadaverous specimen of human
ity just in from tho country, who said
that he had a brother living in Cairo
so poor that the sun would shine
through him, and that ho had to put
on an ovorcoat to make a shadow-
At a California fair sevoral bottles
of strained honey were put on exhibi
tion, when a chap put a bottle of cas
tor oil with the rest. Several old la
dies sampled it with the samo result.
Tho opinion of all who tried it was,
that the bee who laid it was a fraud.
One old lady said oven tho boes bad
got to cheating now-a-days.
