On one occasion, severfibf the students
of South Carolina Colfcb resolved to
drag the Doctor's carriage jinto the wood,
and fixed upon a night the perform
ance; of the exploit Onef fi tneir num.
ber, however, was trouMieu wtn some
compunctious visitius, and ma,hacd to
convey to-; the wormy rresiucni a, inni,

of paying any heed to this jkiggstion the
Doctor proceeded; on the appointed night,
to the carriage house, antll ensconced his
portly person inside the vehicle!' In less
man an nour some nau uqcu yyuug gen
tlemen came to his retreatandjcautious
ly withdrew the carriage; ilnto tho road.
When they were fairly oritlof tlie College
precincts they began to joke freely with
each other by name. N I;
One of them complained of the car
riage'and another replie by.) swearing
that it was heavy enough-to hafee the old
fellow himself in tt. Fori nearly a mile
they proceeded along the; highway, and
then struck i&$ the wojajls, ' a cover
which they concluded would effectually
conceal the vehicle. Making themselves
infinitely merjny' at the Doctor's expense,
and conjecturing how and When he Would
find his carriage, they at;engih reached
the spot where they had peolvCjd toileave
it. Just as they were auo'ut to depart
having once more agreed: that j" the car
riage was heavy enough to have the old
Doctor and all his tribe H 4hey were
startled by the sudden propping one of
theglassdoorannels,andthe well known
voice of the Doctor himself thus address
etHhera : 11 i . '
" So, so, young gentlemen, you are go
ing to leave me in. the wqodsjare you?
Surely, as you have brought rne hither
for your own gratification! you will not
refuse to take me back for limine. Come,
Messrs. -, and , and -j-r buckle
to, and let us return ; it's gettirtg late !" j
There was no appeal ; .for the window!
was raised, and the Doctor returned his
seat Almost without afrord Jthe dis-i
comfittcd young gentlemjen took their
places at the pole, at thelback of the ve-
hide, and quite as expeditiously if with
ess voice, did they retrace their Course
In silence they dragged the carriage into
its wonted place, and theft retreated pre
cipitately to their rooms, to dream; of the
account they must render! pn the morrow.
yvhen they had gone, the .Doctor quietly
vacated the carnage, and went; to his
house where he related the story; to his
family with much glee. JJe never called
Ltho heroes of that noctural expedition to
an account, nor was the carriage everat
terwards dragged at night; into the woods.
A CUTTING RETORT M

The family of Mrs. Brqwn, a good wid-
OW
consisted ot six daughter, had the
misfortune to be poor andproutl. Aboye
the gross vulgarity of human labor, though
nocaoove us necessity, mey uvea in 'siuck

Finally Maria, who was the youngest, and
rather prettymanaged to win the heart
and hand ofthe village physician, and got
married. The alliance being considered
as a decided step 'up in the world, by all
the family ; the single sisters grew proud
er and lazyer than ever, while the doctor's
wife took a new and improved set of airs
to match Ijer advancement in t ie Scale of
good society.' Being comfortably bestow

somebody to mind the pots anil kettles;
seeing a neighbor (a thrift mechanic who

to know 'where she could find a servant'
expecting to get an ofTerQf oie of his
daughters. 'Well, I dontjknowj,' said the
carpenter ; 'help is a little hard to be got
now, but there are the widow Brown's

wife! what a sacred name, what a re

fleerom the crimes ofthe world, and feel
thaf no sin dare enter there. A wife !! she
must be the guardian angel, of his footsteps

firm in virtue that should he for a moment
waver, she can yield him support, and .
replace him upon its foundation ; so happy
in conscious innocence that; when from

his home, he may never find a frpwrj

who made her. Though; thy place bei

countenance of royalty beam upon thee ;
though thy pearls of omar, and thy name;
be honored from the East to the West, lit-
lie will it avail thee, if darkness and dis
appointment and strife be in thine own
habitation. There must be thine hours
of solitude and sickness, ud there you
must die. Reflect then, Iny son, ere thou
choosest, and look well toaer ways whom
thou wouldst love; for though thou be
wise in all things, little will it avail thee,
if thou choosest not the vife of thy bosom
wisely.

Editorial Address.
While venturing this step in the universal march of
periodicals, let it be understood tha( I am not aniiousl'
to declare myself a mental Joan of Arc, bearing special ;
mission to save the people in their noble war against Ig-j
norance and Wrong. I simply prepare a plain feast,
where the viands will be ail 1 of my own choosingj and
some of my own dressing, hoping that if what I provide!
be wholesome and relishing, I shall have a host of friends !
at my board, whose kind words and cheerful encour
agement will keep me iri a proud anjl honourable posi
tion at the head of the table, i . .
I have been too long known by those whom I address, ;
to feel strange in addressing them. -My earliest rhymes, j
written from intuitive impulse, before, hackneyed expe
rience or polite judgment could dictate their tendency,
were accepted and responded to by those whose good
word is a 41 tower of strength." The first active breath
of nature that swept over my heart-strings, awoke but
earnest melodies, which I dotted down in simple notes ;
and when I found that others thought the tune worth
learning when I heard my strains hummed about the
sacred aftars of domestic firesides,: and saw old men,
bright women, and children scanning my ballad strains,
then was I made, to think that my burning desire tospour
out my soul's measure of music was given for a purpose.
My young bosom throbbed with rapture, for inv feedings
had niel witli responsive echoes front honest and genu- j
ine Humanity, and the glory of heaven seemed partial-
revne.a!t,d' whe" 1 discovpred thaj I held power; over. ;

still meet the kind hand bf lielj. have full confidence
in my friends, and believe -if I offer; them the combina
tion of -utility and amusejiK'nt,: they .will freely talije '.Re
ware I bring, an I not t!ii,:ik worse pf me for mixing with
them in the inarket-plae h Activity and Labour.'
I am anxious to give ipy-feehle -aid to the i:ijtiitic
struggle for intrjlecinnl elevation now going on, nndf ding
my energies and will into a cause where iny heart will
zealously anim;.telmy duty. .
It is too true thru there are dense clouds of Ignorance
yet to' be tlissipatcil huge mountains of Error yet jto be
removed; but, there is n stirring development of pro
gressive mind in " the nbss,"' which only requires free
communion with 1 ruth jo" expands itself into that en
lignteueu ana practical wisdom on which e;r rests the
perfection of social and political civilization and I be-
lieve that all who work in the field of Literatute with
sincere desire to serve t'lf. many by arousing generous '
sympathies and educational tastes, need make littlero- i
fc-ition of their service, for " the people " have sufiicient i
