Declareth Ihe Book by Insfi'lration given, ' ; . - ; - "It is nofgood that man should be -without a woman." I A general rule is it, having here and there an exception. That man and -woman : should be join'd in holyTsnion; ' -1 ' : That is to say,' some men and women - ought not to marry, . . -Because they'd take on themselves , more than they could carry. Not proposed is it to undertake a discussion ' As to who under the,-rule are the here and there exception, . For fear I should be involved in a perplexity, Evidently defying All . human inge nuity. ' i I should be,- otherwise express'd, in dark mazes lost, From which there eould be no es cape at any cost. c - t But as the design of this writing is to be practical, ' Pertaining to a subject that is em inently material ,? k Why should two marry, is a vital question,' ' v 1 Which surely demands our serious consideration. - - - What, pray, should cause two to be united for life, , ? 5- Save for the sake of a husband and a wife? : , Not without should the fortune be sought, but rather within; Yet. accepting the without - could not be deem'd a sin. It admits of no disputation, As it accords with Revelation. The fortune should be sought within; But we may, also, take that with out, If conveniently to be found any where about. Nothing harsh would I say of old maids and old batchelars, Putting them, as I do, far above the common herd of tattlers; v Many of them are ornamenting their several stations, In promoting the well-being' of earth's different nations. . Good reasons they may have for not entering the holy estate; With some of them, it is feared, it may be now too late To assume the duties of the married relation, -i :? For which they are well-fitted by birth and education. . - Some, it : may be, have - refrained from holy. wedlock, ' r ; Through a wrong understanding of th? great apostle's saying, r " In marrying one does well; in not marrying, better,1' But in construing Paul out of his connection, Thus giving to his words a - false interpretation, They make him contradict himself in another letter, " In which he says, "Marriage is - honorable in all;" . 5o, as may be seen, they are driven to the wall. Be it as it may be, however, touch ing their reason : - For not having the doubled-blessed relation. It is heartily hoped they may adorn the single-blessed station, By showing themselves to :be worthy factors in God's creation. And now, in conclusion, be it said. Not at all contradicting the already read, I would say to you young ones of . the just-considered class, Don't put off the doing till the time for doing has passed; ' ; But see to yoar being well married, So sooiCas the weight can be by you carried. The so doing 'you will have . no cause for regretting, . r " As it, doubtless, shall be sanctioned r by God's blessing. " " ' x M. C. Thomas. . Leasburg, N. c! ,. A WAR STORY. "Ben Butler and I met in the . ro tunda of the capitol," remarked Mr. Sayers, chairman of the . appropria tions committee of the last house, to a Star; writer one jdayr lthe lastZtime I saw him. It was not long, before the old general's death,' and the be casion, if I remember correctly, was some appearance he hadT' to make before the supreme court iu the case of the Chicago anarchists. : As shook the old man's hand my memory traveled back to a time when Bat- er's name was the one I -liked ' the the least and Butler's hand the last ones nto 5fhiph J cared to fall. .;.;'. I was rather yqung, ft mere boy. in Texas when the war broke like :t storm, Naturally,. with" roy ; geogia. phy, I-went with ' the Confederacy. I waf in the artillery. One day. we captured a batterv of. three brass guns. It was-given to me to com '4 ... . i . mand, and the day I got that battery was the proudest day - m my life. Then as I look back it etill seems to me that these six brask A field guns were the'most beautiful things; that I ever saw. "Of course I was full of ardon ournea to do something .with my battery Such was my anxiety : to get into trouble with those guns that none Carolina, Wednesday Evening, Febabyiu896, No. 26. I dwgged ji couple pver to the Mis sissippi we were in Louisiana - at the time and pulled on a fight with a stray r gunboat luloHgirtg to the Y-uikees which I . foniifl prowling around.- v We had a sharp,- epit-fi re time of it for a few moments, when a IncSc) shot f rora .ouu if my gnus tore a hole in her in such . a: fiishion that it let the xirer in, and sho filled and sank. I was, excessively proud of the achievement. - v i "Butler hadliTew Orleans at' the timei andr among other things, was running the papers. . Later I read an account .of my. brush with the gunboat in one of Butler's . journals. It could .not be 1 called an unbiased statement, t . It reviled me as a most abandoned and bloodthirsty character and declared that even after the gun ooai; gurrenaerea x Kept oil pouring shot into her as if my one purpose in life was wholesale murder. Of course this was not so. I wouldn't have fired on anybody after he "had that I didn't have the ammunition hauled his flag down, and besides to waste. r- - ' : "After I rejoined the rest of my battery following the exploit of : the gunboat I hunted trouble with ', the Yankees more zealously than -ever. One day I was ; fully gratified. We were still in 'Louisiana. - The sun came up one morning, and '-found some 10,000 of ns facing a largely superior, force' of . Yankees. We couldn't have crawled outf a fight even were we disposed, but no one suggested any retreat The fact was we felt quite cocky and were full of a belief that we - could whip the invaders. ' The fight , began, and I Boon had myireart's wish. '. I was in a peck of trouble with the Yankees, I and" my battery. had succeeded in attracting the attention and "get ting a hearing, as it were from three Yankee batteries all - at once. They were a reasonably brisk Outfit, and it did'nt take them a. minute to get my range. Then it began to rain sor row aud hail despair for my bat tery. . , " " ' To show you how hot those Yan kees made it one only, need to say that they wounded or killed 40 of my 66 men and dismounted- two oi my brass beauties - in a 30 minutes. You might have planted corn where my "battery stood -when they got through,, it was so plowed and har rowed by the Yankee fire. "I was in the thick of the battle. I was standing near the TSo. 1 gun.

A cannon ball had torn through" his chest. . -' ; "I ordered a man to his place. Before he was . there a moment a fragment of shell . from out of the sky struck him n top of his head, and he fell dead by the side of Thompson. It was such a whirl of smoke and roar that -1 conld'nt tell what was going on at the otherguns, much less in other parts of the field. I had been ordered to hold my ; posi tion and had made up my mind' to hold it while a gun and a man of my battery 7 held- together'- X-'"' ordered another to take the nlaoe of the sec- ond lying dead under the gun,' " This man got there just in time to recieve a bullet in his mouth; : It came out under Eis ear. This man, however, did'nt die. I met him years after the war . - ' : "xnree men were an- that were available for this especial duty. They were dead and: wounded and gone, and 1 took the post myself. ' I-don't know how long it -was whether que minute or ten when, without the slightest feeling of pain or -warning, was hurt, my legs gave way, and I sank, to: the ground. Ac; the, same instant an explosion like 40 batter ies all uniting in one discharge broke loose just to the rear of me. Acol umn Oi nre auu nuiuse buuv woiu the sky, as if a volcano had -; been loosed by the general jar and din of battle. It was my amunatiou wagon, I had 2,000 rounds "of amunation in big army .wagon. -. t It had - been placed about 5Q yards o the rear fif my battery. ; When .we. ppeneft tne fight, had made up my mind vto stay, and I dx brought, up all my amunation; resolved to. win or Jose risrht there. A shot from the Yan-i kees had exploded it. That was the. , volcano. "As I, look back I'm not sure" , but the chance explosion of my amuna tion wagon saved what was left of my battery. The smoke swept down and covered up Jikafog. The Yankees ceased firing on us, They probably thought we were wiped off the face of the eartn in tne sion;" As the smoke drifted, while it became clear about the battery, it . . 1 . hung like a blanetk between us and first:-adroad nciiT Highest of all in Leavening the enemy and acted the part of-a shield. .The Yankees couldn't, see us. so thev didn't shnoh - " - Two of my men came along and dragged me to the rear, out - of the way of immediate harm.

I'm too young to talk about going through life on one leg. --, ! , Then he told me the army would hove to retreat that night; that he had no ambulances, no means of transportation. The wounded, in cluding myself, would have to be left behind. They would be prison ers to the Yankees. . .. A All at once, like a landslide, I thought of Butler and that news paper account of my firing on the gunboat after it had surrendered. . I made sure Butler would hang me like-a dog, once he got bands oh me. It was at" this juncture when I de termined he shouldn't get me. r I was as strenuously opposed to hang ing as against amputation We were on an' old sugar planta tion.

THE CONCEALED-WEAPON PROBLEM. . The Charleston News and Courier has - excited" no little interest and comment upon its proposed plan of putting a stop to the pistol carrying habit The Philadelphia Press rather encourages the Charleston newspaper and says: - ' -' . The Charleston News and Courier is fiffhtinsr the oistol-carrvinff habit on a. new plan. - It has lost faith Lin the old way of passing laws against it because suchr laws are invariably violated by such classes of men. The method proposed now is to make pistol carrying costly by compelling dealers who sell them to take out . a license and put a "stamp and their name on every box of cartridges sold. In addition it would require every one . owning or carrying a pistol to take out -a paid .for license for the privilege, tax the -pistol itself property, -and -have eyery citizen make oath both on ; registering and votiner that he has not violated the law on, this 'subject If such law were placed on the South - Caro lina statue books aud -: enforced v it would! quickly ' mitigate tbe pistot evil in that State, but it is doubtful if it, could .be ' enforced. -Public opinion wonld not sustain it Mean while, however,. the,. proposition of the News and Courier , will call at tention to the question ; and, -impress the people's mind with the extent of the evil. . " The Washington Po3t also thinks the News and Courier's plan is worth trying. V It says that the law against concealed weapons is virtually a dead letter in the District of Colum bia, aud 'that evary - hocfdlum goes armed,' while the law-abiding citizen, who goes unarmed, is thus left with out means of self-defence in .case of attack. - In view:of the enormity of tbe pistol-carrying' evil and ' the futility of all la wa heretofore to pre vent it, we would like to see the News and Courier's proposals tested awhile.
