Advice to Girls.—One of our exchanges
thus talks paternally to the young ladies. There
is a deal of truth in it. Hear this:
“ Young ladies, the whole secret with nine
tenths of you, of uot being able to secure good
husbands, is simply that you do not know how
to work. Yon have no knowledge of practical
house-keeping, and consequently are useless
as helpmates. Instead of being an assistant to
a husband you are an obstacle to his success.
Your style of living, too, is incompatible with
his means. YoU want to begin house keeping
as your parents left off, not as they began, aud
there are few young men who have not already
a good income, can afford to marry you.
“ There are no possible objections to the ac
complishments of music, painting, and the
like, as such, but the idea is to be able to set
these prior amusements aside, lor the stern
duties of married life call for your practical
knowledge. Show the young man that you
can do your part of double business, and that
you will not be a dead expense to him through
life. Believe us, young friends, as many true,
patriotic, womanly hearts beat over household
duties as flutter beneath (he soft, light of a
parlor chandelier. Your kiss is just as sweet,
your smile just as bright, your heart as happy
and tender after a day’s exertion in a sphere
worthy of true womanhood, as iu the places
of dissipation, frippery and silly amusement.
Have an ambition to do your pqrt in 1 We, culti
vate industrial habits, and let the parlor accoru
plishuients go with the higher accomplishments
we have roughly enumerated. It is astonish
ing how soon 4 domestic young lady is found
out and appreciated. It is because she is such
a rare exception to the general rule.”
Strong Suggestions. —lt is thought by
many that violent diseases require violent
remedies, even in a religious point of view.-
Acting upon this theory, it was once proposed
by a Baptist brother that an extremely hard
case should not only be immersed, as the
formula prescribes, but likewise anchored in
the stream over nii/ht. It may be very well to
evade such difficulties in the conversion of
living subjects ; but what of the dead V For
ourselves, %ve say inothiug; we counsel the
most liberal extension of Charity’s cloak over
the human wreck that lies stranded on the
dismal shores of time. But our Yankee friends
have, wjth their usual adroitness, discovered a
model riethod of dispensing the last rites over
the reprobate. It seems that an undeniably
“ had fellow ” died, and his friends, after many
fervent apffcals, persuaded our down-East par
sou to piaVeli a funeral sermon. lie was a
kind man, hid so-hc yielded to entreaty. He
was also a An did man and so he said :
“ Dear brdjiren, (said the reverend person of
the pulpit, : 'tjl mostnastally,) I have been ask
ed, l have b'ii desired, J have been impor
tuned I have finally been pursnaded—to de
liver this orally in the church over the body
of this, our deAried brother. He was a bad
jyan, and we all Wn/.W it. lie had bosses, and
he rfriw’i'in; ln\had cocks, and he fit ’em.
But (said the minlUi-r, looking more hopeful
ly,) they do say In) was occasionorily useful at
times. The bel-crg will now remove the
corpSh, while the (lioir will sing the very com
forting hymn— \
“ ‘ Will rapture we behold
' r The arful cuss removed.’ ”
Dress ver.siwTiieology.—The morbid de
sire winch many piople have to rival or sur
pass one another n the matter of dress is very
reprehensible in many secular matters ; but
what shall we s.V of it when it Intrudes upon
spiritual things very much to their detriment?
In the prospeioiis North there may be some
excu e tor itfqday of fashions; but iu the
wretched 8m li the folly of extravagant dress
is a serioufconcern. Here is the way it. works
at the Nonli, according to an exchange :
“At a recent public meeting in Mtnifie the
JTesideft stated that but twenty per cent, of
the poptlation attended church, and the excuse
of tlies- who remained away were either that
they eiuld not, afford to rent a pew or to dress
well etotigh.”
At tin* South, the ease, we fear, is, compara
tive!," speaking, worse. God bless the brave
and true women who can afford, without blush
ing, to attend church regularly, in gentle scorn
of fashion, and in plain attire! If those who
are rich and religious would set the example,
their poorer sisters might be spared many
pangs of jealousy and be enabled to cultivate a
lovelier u orship. But there’s no use talking.
Boi.t> Bthket Robbekit. —Yesterday, Mr.
Rullß i hirrf, from the country, while Bunding !
in front of O’Dowd & Mulherin’s store, on t
Broad street., was rohbed ot his pocket hook j
containin'.; about S2OO. He hud tile pocket j
hook in the side pocket of his coat and a negro j
stepped up, jerked the hook from his pocket
and made off with it. lie was closely pursued
by the police and finally captured by officer
Welsh in the warehouse of S. Franklin & Cos.,
on Reynolds street. He secreted the money
between some cotton bales, where, we learn, it
was found. It is supposed that the warehouse
was the place ol rendezvous for him and his
accomplices, where they intended to divide the
spoils.
This is the most audacious robbery we have
heard ol in this city for a long time,
Horse-Thieves' Arrested.— We learn tha
on Wednesday night a valuable horse was sto
len from the premises ot Mr. Leiluer, at Bcrzc
lia. Luckily tor Mr. L , he promptly discover
ed this loss, and took immediate precautions to
overhaul the thief. In this endeavor he was
successful, through the st.iil and eneigy of
Lieut. K. Purcell, ot the police corps, who de
tected and arrested the thief as he very grandly
rode near the Lower Market, the culprit is of
the colored persuasion. He is now in jail, and
has ample opportunity of meditating upon his
probable punishment. Horse-stealing is every
where considered a great crime. In tbe South
it is especially heinous at this time.
Bone Felon.— Of all. painful things can
there be any so excruciatingly painful as a
bone felon ? We know of noue that llet.li is
heir to, and as this malady is quite frequent
add the subject of much earnest, consideration,
we give the latest recipe for its cure, which is
given by that high authority, tbe Londou
Lancet: “As soon as the pulsation which in
dicates the disease is lelr, put directly over the
spot a By blister, about the size of youi thumb
nail, and iet it remain for six hours, at tbe ex
piration of which time directly under the sur
face of the blister may be seen the felon, which
can be iustautly taken out with the point of a
needle or a lancet.”
Kai.hia Mills for Sai.e. —We direct atten
tion to an advertisement in this day’s paper of
the sale of the Kalmia Mills property. As this
property will be of immense value at some
future period, and as the terms of sale arc,
we presume, much below the actual cost, those
who have money to invest would do well to
investigate the advantages offered in this sale.
A Suggestion. —lt would give satisfaction
to all parties who have glass boxes to call at
the general delivery at tbe Post Office for their
mail, if the Postmaster would empoly a suffi
cent number of clerks to attend to each de
<' livery duriDg the time the office is open.
Supreme Court.—The court at Atlanta was

night, about 7 o’clock, sleet commenced pat

Many years ago, the writer of this notice and

witnessed many surprising and beneficial effects
of ilie Rum there produced upon many of the
invalids who were, like ourselves, seeking
health, and upon inquiry and investigaiion
obtained a full history of its medicinal virtues.
He was delighted and surprised, and determin
ed to make it the basis of a Tonic and Restora
tive Medicine. The result of his labors was a
glorious success for himself aud suffering hu
manity. The celebrated Plantation Bitters
was thus made known to the world. Being an
article of real merit, founded on new princi

Marriage of a Distinguish ho Southern
Authoress. —A topic ol interest to the literary
world just now is the marriage of Miss Au
gusta J. Evans, the well-known authoress, to
Mr. M. L. Wilson, President Mobile and Mont
gomery Railroad. The event is the more im
portant in view ot its proble effect upon her
future litemry career. Should it result in
domesticating her genius, while her bus hand
would thereby he the gainer, 1 lie world at large
would sustain a serious loss. Having shown
the capacity to write a work of great merit, her
failure to do so now would be a reproach to
herself, and a source of regrpt to the lovers of
literature. — Atlanta Constitution.
Our advice to the bride is, to esteem it as the
first of all earthly considerations to moke a flood
wife, even if tbe Bulafis and Edna Earls have
to he cast to the dogs. Married women in this
country, as a general thing, have but little
leisure tor literary pursuits. If Mrs. Wilson
will first discharge every domestic duty, and
then devote the remainder of her time, 11 any,
1.0 the enlightenment or amusement of the
world, fctia will havb accomplished her highest
duty as a woman, and done the most for her
own happiness. This p»ay he an p}d fashioned
uoliou of ours, hut it is, at least, a sensible one.

of the Coughs, Dyspepsia, Colic, Sick Headache,
Rheumatism, Constipation, Menstrual Obstructions,
etc., so common among our people; Earache, Tooth
ache. Acute Rheumatism, Neuralgia, and bodiij
pains of every kind, flee before PKOPHITT’S PAIN

PACIFIC GUANO.
Capital, One Million Dollar*.
This GUANO differs from Peruvian Guano
simply in the relative p: oportions of tl e same element
of fertility.
Its use duiing the past four years, for the culture of
Colton and Corn, lias given to it a character for stand
ard excellence unsurpassed by I’eruvian Guano, and
when seasons of drought intervene it p> oduc's a larger
increase of crops. The price at which this Guano is
placeTl is so much below that of Peruvian Guano as
to constitute it an object of material importance to
Southern agriculture.
The Company looks to “ large sales,” small “prof
its” and a permanent Hade for compensation on capi
tal invested.
The large capital and resources of the Company en
ables it to furnish a Guano of the highest value, at
the lowest possible cost to consumers, and the highest
interest of the Company is recognized in this policy.
Dr. St. Julian Ravenrl, of Charleston, 8. C., is
Scientific Director to the Company, which affords a
sure guarantee of the continued excellence of the
Guano.
