DTsraeli, the present administration leader in tho Brit ish Ilonse of Commons, in his last work, the "Biography of Lord George Bentinck," speaking of the Jewish race, thus alludes to the equality of races : "They are a living and the most strik ing evidence of the falsity of that perni cious doctrine of modern times, the na tural equality of man. The political equality of a particular race is a matter of municipal arrangement, and depends en tirely on political considerations and cir cumstances; but the natural equality of man now in vogue, and taking the form of cosmopolitan fraternity, is a principle which, were it possible to act on it, would deteriorate the great races and destroy all the genius of the world. What would be the consequence on the Anglo Saxon lie public, for example. wvro they as citizens to secede from their sound principle of re serve, and mingle with their negro and colored populations? In the course of ime they would beeome so deteriorated ""TTvat tlietr States- woaWT"1,1 conquered and regained by the aborigines whom they have expeiled, and who would then be their superiors !" A PiiirrrY Coxceit. "We yesterday saw, in the parlor of a friend, a very beautiful conceit. It is, ot course, the tancv ot a lady, and consists of the burr of a pine tree placed in a wine glass half full of water, and from between the different layers of the burr are shooting forth green blades bright, beautiful, refreshing. For a little thing, we have seen nothing that so pleas ed us by its beauty and novelty. And the secret is this: the burr was found dried and open ; the different circles were sprinkled with grass seed, and it was placed in a wine glass, with water in, as above. In a few days the moisture and nourishment gave the burr life and health ; the different circles closed and buried with in themselves the grass seed, and ' a few days more gave to the seed also life, sprout and growth ; and now a pyramid of living green, beautifully relieved by the sombre hue of the burr, is the result as pretty and novel a parlor ornament as we have for a long while seen. , We d not know whether the idea was original with the la dy, but we do know that its success is beautiful.

The Pilot Mountain. The mountain scenery of 2Corth Caroli na shows the workings of Nature in the dif ferent aspects of Diversity, Beauty and Grandeur, in a degree, perhaps, equal to, if not surpassing any other country of like area. An English gentleman and tourist says that, though he had crossed the Alps in a number of places, yet he had never seen any mountain scenery which he thought as beautiful as that of Western North Carolina. This work of nature is situated in the eastern part of Surry, IST.-C, near the line which divides that county from Stokes. It rises an insolated pile, in the midst of a plain ; no other mountains, nor even any considerable hills, being within many miles of it. The ascent of. the mountain to "the spring," an agreeable post of refreshment, more than half the distance to the top, is so gradual that the visitor may proceed on horseback. From this spot the acclivity becomes steeper until you reach the pin nacle, which presents an elevation of some two hundred feet. The only pass to the summit is on the north side, narrow, steep and difficult of ascent. ; yet it is consider ed by no means a difficult achievement, and the visitor is rewarded for his toil by an enchanting prospect of the surrounding country and mountain scenery in the dis tance. The dense and wide-stretched for est appears dotted with farms and ham lets. The Blue Ridge reposes in a long line of mountain heights on the north-west. Eastward, in Stikes county, the Saura Town Mountains rise to the view, some of wlrosc summits exceed the Pilot in height. And the Yadkin River, flowing down from the hills of Wilkes, and wash ing the western base of the mountain, "rolls its silvery flood" in a mazy line of light thro' the wilderness. The result of measurements, taken by President Caldwell and Prof, xlndrews, is as follows : Height of Pilot Mountain from a base near Grassy Creek to the top of the trees 1551 ft. Elevation of the pinnacle on the north side, at place of ascent, 205 " Elevation of same on south side 250 " Highest perpendicular rock on the south side 111 " "In the geology of the pinnacle there is)som ething quite remarkable and curious. IUs made lip.chieiiv of mica slate and quartz ; but each exhibits' peculiar antnn- tercsting characters. Its rocky wail is full of rents from top to bottom, and it is al so regularly stratified, the strata dipping easterly at an angle of only ten degrees. The most abundant rock is a peculiar kind of mica or grit rock, composed of very fine granular quartz, with flesh red mica inti mately disseminated. The texture is ex quisitely line, and the cohesion is so loose that it may be frequently crumbled be tween the fingers into fine white sand." At a point on the road between the Lit tle Yadkin and Mount Airy, the traveler may obtain the most singular, and perhaps the finest view of the Pilot. One end of the mountain is there presented to the be holder in its most perfect pyramidal form. Its vast sides are seen sweeping up from the surrounding forest, gradually auroach ing and becoming steeper, until they ter minate at the perpendicular and altar-like mass of rock which forms the summit. It here gives an idea of some gigantic work of art, so regular and so surprisingly similar are the curves of its outlines, and so exactly over the centre does the towering pinnacle appear to be plac ed. The name is said to be a translation of an Indian appellation, signifying Pilot, called so by the aborigines because the mountain served as a beacon to pilot them in their forest wanderings through a great extent of surrounding country. It satisfies the eye, and fills the soul with a calm and solemn delight to gaze upon the Pilot. .Whether touched by the fieeev w ings of the morning clouds, or piercing the glittering skies of noon, or re posing in the mellow tints of evening; -whether, bathed in the pale flight of the moon, or enveloped in the surges of the tempe3t, with the lightning flashingronnd its brow it stands ever, ever the same its foundations in the depths of the earth, and its summit rising in solitary grandeur to the heavens 'the twin of Time and em blem of Eternity just as it rose under its Maker's hand on the morning of creation, and just as it shall stand when the last generation shall gaze upon it for the last time. 1 The Real Parties,-As showning that there are but two parties in the country at this time, it is only necessary to look at the Senate. Next March nineteen new Sena tors are te take their seats for six years: Of these thirteen are Democrats, ; find six Black Republicans -not a single Know Nothing among the nineteen. Two of the Democrats supersede Know Nothing Sen ators from Kentucky and Texas. There are but two parties, the National Democ racy and the Black Republicans : Choose between them ! -Opposition means giving aid to Black Republicanism ! ;- ' j ' Exchange. A Hard Joke. A notorious practical joker yclept "Strait back Dick," of Mobile, perpetrated the following severe joke, upon an unsoph isticated countryman, during the preval-' ence of yellow fever in that city last Au tumn : m Dick was at the wharf one day last -week when one of the up-river boats arrived, looking, doubtless, for some unwary indi vidual upon w hom to exercise his talent. He watched closely the countenance of each passenger as he stepped from the plank upon the wharf, and at length fas tened his gaze upon an individual who, from his appearance and . manners, ..was considerably nearer Mobile than he had over been before. He was evidently ill at ease, and had probably heard tho reports which were rife in the country, relative to the hundreds who were dying in Mobile every hour from yellow fever. The man started off towards Dauphin street, carpet sack in hand ; but he had not proceeded far when a heavy hand was laid upon his shoulder, and he suddenly stopped. Up on turning round he met the cold, serious countenance of Dick, and it seemed to send a thrill of terror through his- whole frame. After looking at him steadily for about a minute, Dick slowly ejaculated: "Yes, you are the man. Stand straight!" With fear visible in his countenance, the poor man essayed to do as command ed. "Straighter yet !" said Dick. "There that will do," and taking trom his pocket a small tape measure, he stooped down and meas ured him from the toe of his boot to the crown of his hat, took a pencil and care fully noted the height in his pocket-book, to the utter amazement of the stranger; and after which he measured him across the shoulders and again noted the dimen sions. He then looked at the stranger firm ly in the face and said : "Sir, I am very sorry that it is so, but I really will not be able to finish it for you before morning." "Finish what?" asked the stranger, en deavoring in vain to appear calm. "Why, your coffin, to be sure! You see, I am the city undertaker, and the people fin Hviiio" liei'( Kfi Inst, that.

Why, even now, you have a pain a slight pain -in your back." "Y-es, I believe I h-ave," replied the trem bl ing I loosier. "Exactly," said Dick, "and'in your limbs too P "Yes. stranger, you're right ; and I begin to feel it in the back of my neck and head." "Of course you do, and unless you do something for it, you'll be dead in a short time, I assure you. Take my advice, now go back aboard the boat, swallow down a gill of brandy, get into your state-room and cover up with blankets. Lay there until yon perspire freely, then leave here like lightning !" Hoosier hurried on board the boat, and followed Dick's instructions to the letter. On Monday he was met by a gentleman at Citronelle, to whom he related his won derful escape from death by yellow fever, even after p re pe rat ions were being made to procure his coffin. He says he will never forget the kindness of the tall man in Mobile vice. wno gave him such good ad- Let Prosperity Prosper. - We copy the following from the Newberry Ithing Sun : "It is, a very strange idea, that when a country is prospering, when the citizens are flourishing, that men are uot satisfied to let well enough alone. We, the South ern people, are prospering, negroes are high, cotton is highf and the business of the country, in all its branches, is flourish ing; when such a state of things prevail, the South has always prospered. Onr in terests have invariably declined when ue groes are low, for when cotton is low, land is low, and everything becomes depressed. It is a new discovery, says an able writer, that low prices and cheap labor are the harbingers of prosperity ; thus however, reason the advocates of the slave trade, to wit, that by re-opening it, you cheapen la bor and the price of every tiling, ' and thus bring about prosperity. "Lik? the old wo man with the goose that laid the golden egg, there are men who are dissatisfied with prosperity, who are dissatisfied with the s'ave institution as it is, with the number on hand, and are such stupid 'ani mals th nt they would in trod u ce my ri ads iuoret destroy the profi tabl eness of tile sy s- tern,-and thus kill the goose that lays r the golden egg.'' , v .".7 Enthusiastic. An .Ohio editor says :. 'What can be more captivating than to see a beautiful woman, say four feet , eleven inches high, and eleven, feet:; four inches in circumference, passing along tho aisle just as Divine worship commences? : We. don't know.
