usr.. o. "TWENTY-FIVE YEABS MARRIED." This is the signature of a writer in the German town Telegraph, who gives her sister wives some excellent advice. W copy in part and recommend the reflections to the . careful pursual of young married people. Perhaps many older married people may not be too old to derive essen tial benefit from them. Such are too apt to say Whiningly with the song, "Oh, if I was but young again I'd lead a different life, Save my money, buy me a farm, Take Dinah for my wife," and so forth. Now it would be a great Jeal better if you and Dinah would just "buckle to" and go it strong for the time you have left. Never too late to become industrious and economical. Try it. Read the good advice we append: "I have had considerable experience in the rou tine duties of housekeeping, and with your per mission will say a word or two ou thw important subject to every family. "There is far more depending on a well order ed household, than a vast majority of married wo men would seem to believe. On looking around how much system and economy would accomplish, if properly observed. I began married life early; my husband had no other income to rely upon than the labor of his own bands. We lived in a small house, having ttached to it a small garden. Providence blessed us with good health. My du ties multiplied by increase of years; but they were caretully laid down and punctually performed. We rose early, breakfasted, dined and supped at exact hours, as most families do. Every hour in the day had its allotted duty or arrangement, and everything was done in accordance with it. I3y this means a perfect system was maintained, reducing the labor of a family nearly one-halt; and in this way I bad ample time for reading, receiv ing and returning visits, out door exercises, &c. Expenditures in every department were made care tully, and thus while we wanted for nothing which persons in moderate circumstances needed, there was an exact account kept of the amount of income and outlay, and we made it a point always to keep safely cd the right side. By degrees our pecuniary means increased, capital was applied for a more txf ended business on the part of my husband, and profits augmented until we have a full, and I may --ay an abundant share of this world's goods. My husband and I unite, however, in the conviction that this fortunate result of circumstances is main ly owing to the system and economy established in our young married life, and the smiles of Provi dence upon our industry, nnd our effort to perform cur duty in every relation of life. The great error committed by young housekeep : ?s is the thoughtless and unnecessary expenditure- of money which they cannot afford; and in ;, oii!g husbands, instead of setting down to some honest, steady labor, wasting their time in visiting T:!ay-hous(S, bnr-rooms, club-rooms, worthless ex hibaions, parades, and other places of resort. By remain in at home with their wives and families, ai'ti enjoying domestic comforts, they will in the c be found to be more enduring and satisfying all the rest combined. Young wives, also, ;!ijuld find their highest happiness in their homes in meeting and welcoming their husbands to the sj-ot which ought to be their mutual paradise; and I an; certain, their safest road to prosperity is in (!! hlishing and observing strictly system and vC'jiK'iny.". A Plucky Woman. We know of a Northern hum and Northern raised lady, who married a i'cuthern planter, and who, with her husband, .iakofl her abode at a point just back of a certain i-'.ty on the Mississippi rivrr, not a hundred thou ti.d mile.s above New Orleans. This lady has never let an occasion slip on which she could abuse and villify the Southern Confederacy. A short time since she was on board a steamer, going up from New Orleans, and was, as usual, wagging her tongue at a 2?40 rate against our section. Among her auditory was a lady of the true Southern grit, who listened to the harangue, while her cheeks grew pale and red by turns, and her teeth made deep indentations in her coral lips. At last, when nhe could stand it no longer, the Southern matron rose from her seat and walked over to where the female speaker was letting off her abolition gas, :;nd, shaking her finger in that lady's face, slowly and distinctly said : " Madume, I have a husband, two sons and three h rot hers in the army of the Southern Confederacy. 1 hey are fighting for their country, and if they are killed, they will die like gallant men, and however great the loss may be to me, I shall have the consolation of knowing they fell in a good cause. You are a woman, and you talk as you do brcausc you know that no Southern gentleman will force you to stop. I am a Southern woman, and I now tell you that you shall not abuse my people in my presence. If you say another word against the Southern Confederacy, I shall whip you in the practice of the passengers!" Tbe Southern blood was up, and there would have been an awful wreck of de lain and crinoline if tlv.it Yankee woman hadn't been immediately st nick dumb. To make safety doubly sure, she i'su retired to her state-room, and locked the door, with the key inside. Tlu.t's the style of woman for Louisiana to wcar by X. O. D lta. North Carolina TROors. It is highly grat i:g to ot serve how completely equipped and .::(!, the N. C. troops are that pass through . hi city to the seat of war. We have not in a v.MiJc' instance, noticed an inefficiently equipped man from that State. Their uniforms are plain, but comfortable and most substantial, they are made for wear and use not for show. Their arrus are all brightly burnished and kept in the best possible order. North Carolina may well be proud of her gallant troops: they are the admira tion of all who see them. Petersburg Express.

Camp near Norfolk, July 30, 1861. 1 m STATE BIllliE COXVEIYTIOK, At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Rotap. County Bible Society, held in Salisbury on the 1 5th July, the" following resolution was adopted: Whereas tbe 25th day of July is deemed too early for a full meeting of tbe State Bible Convention in Salis bury as called for in the address of the Executive Com mittee to the christians and patriots of North Carolina, aud as it is important that ample time be given to noti fy the Cviity Societies throughout the State, so that every section of the State may be represented, therefore Renolred, That the State Bible Convention be held ia Salisbury on the 23d of October next. JAS. H. ENNISS, LUKE BLACK.MER, JOS. W. HALL, W. L. KISTLER, July 23, 1861 Et. Contaittee. SUBSTITUTE FOB COFFEE. From the Fayette ville Observer. Messrs, Sale: In one of your late papers, you have an extract from a South Carolina paper con cerning a substitute for tea and coffee, mentioning particularly, Cacina, or Indian tea. During the revolutionary war, various articles were used for tea. Coffee was then scarcely known. In the change of time coffee has become, especially at tbe South, an essential article of household beverage. As a substitute, a great variety of articles have been used. I have seen rye, wheat, and peas, roasted and used. Carrots also, I have seen sliced, dried and used for the same purpose. But of all the articles used as a substitute, there is nothing so good, whether in place of tea or coffee, as a plant which is abundant in eastern Carolina, viz : yopon. I speak from personal knowledge. I have used it for several years, and have no hesitation in saying that for me, at least, it is much better tht.n ! the Chinese tea, or coffee, tor three years I have scarcely lasieu any uuier laoie oeverage. Seamen employed in some of our seaports use it much, and it is an observation made among them that they can do more work, and endure more fatigue in using yopon than coffee. The taste may at first not be quite so palatable, but a little use makes it quite agreeable. A little more care in preparing the article would undoubtedly improve the taste. In the Proviuce of Paraguay, and iu neighboring territories, yopon forms an important article of commerce. It is gathered in large quantities, and is an established article of traffic among the traders. In this day of retrenchment, I know of no article which so justly merits the attention of every North Carolinian as a substitute for these table beverages that have become so difficult to be obtained. C. This yopon can be obtained of any Commission Merchant in Newbern at SI per bushel. It is msde like the Chinese tea, or if wanted strong may be boiled instead of steeped. Important Arrangement. The Enquirer says the banks in Richmond and those in Savan nah, including the branches of each, have made arrangements by which their notes will be received by each other at par. Cannot a similar arrange ment be made between the banks in other cities? Charlotte Female Institute, Charlotte, N. C. The exercises of this School will be resumed on the I2th of September.
