TUB LITTLK BOt THAT D1KI. Mj There was n darling littlo boy Iivinr in Hie house where t was- visiting fyr a short time. Mis uaVwj wus A.Villie. He had hen ven Fy..ile eyes, sunn j curl, and a high white forehead. He would come to my room, and there nestle down at my feet, and leg me to tell him a story'about the angels. Ah! he KH'med too jrood and beautiful fur euvih! II is mother was one of the ort of people who do not eave to listen to hildrcnV innocent words, or to talk to thciu.:: . Wheu he wonld ask her to tell him stories, she wonld say: "Oh! po wav. now. Willie, I have seincthin": else to attend to!" Then he would turn away, with tears in his eyes, and try to amuse himself with his toys. One day I had been telling him storica of the angels, when suddenly he looked up, and said; "I should like to go to the angels; but (hero his bright face clouded) I houM trouhU them, shouldn't I?" "No, dear Willie," i replied, scarce able to retain tny tears.' "'But da you want to go, and leave father and mother, and aie?" He did not aiuwer, but soon left the room. "A fctr days afterwards, he came and. told me his head. ached. I bathed it in cold water, and thou asked if he felt any better. "A Utth better!" he replied. 1 went down stain, and told his mother that he felt ill, and shehad better let liiin lie down and sleep. She said, "if list f1 Sit hct pan. of tnnrsi hnt T think - - ' i there's not much the matter!" The next morning Willie was worse, and be fore noon was in a hi b 'ever.

Let us, then, with deep contrition and-penitent sorrow, nnite in humbling ourselves before the most High, in con fessing our individual and national sins, and in acknowledging the justice of our punishment. Let us implore him to re move from our hearts that false pride of opinion which would impel us to per severe in wrong for the sake of incon sistency, rather than yield a just sub mission to the unforseeo exigencies by which we are now surrounded. Let us, with deep reverence, beseech him to re- Utore the friendship and good will which prevailed, in tormcr days, among the people of the several States; and, above all, to save us from the horrors of civil war "and "blood-guiltiness." Let our fervent prayers ascend to - His Throne, that he would not desert us in this hour of extreme peril, but remember us as He did our Fathers in the darkest days of the Revolution, and preserve our Con stitution and our Union, the work of their handsr for ages yet to come. An Omnipotent Providence may overrule existing evils for permanent good. He can make the wrath of man to praise Him, and the remainder of wrath He can restrain. Let me invoke every in dividual, in whatever sphere of life he may be placed, to feel a personal re sponsibility to God and his country for keeping this day holy, and for contrib uting all in his power to remove our actual and impending calamities.

V In a late number of a leading paper, it is maintained that by taking off the corn and plowing under the stalks, the fertility of soil may; be increased in definitely, and such a system is strongly recommended. It truly appears plausi ble, let us examine more closely: Nature is the farmer's guide, and he U successful so far as he follows her teachings. She has with greatest pains taking produced a perfect equilibrium between the vegetable and animal worlds. Each absorbs the effete poisous genera ted, by -the other. Everj'body knows how plants absorb the deleterious car bonic acid, and give back oxygen to the atmosphere, for the support of animals, but alt do not perceive the beautiful ar rangement by which the excrements of animals become the life of plants. These contain the esseutial elements for the vigorous growth of vegetation, which cannot be obtained, any where else. The farmer, maintaining that he can en rich bis land, ad infinitum, by plowing under stalks or straw, lays he does sup ply these elements, and consequently knows better thau nature how to econo mize the elements of fertility. " Let us see. Is the soil enriched? In vegetable' matter, in what are termed the organic elements,1 and if a a tiff clay, beneficial results from in creased porosityr niay be expected; on a deep prairie, or bottom soil, for a great number of years the results may not de cide for cither method, but even then the soil cannot be cheated always: a thin soil will increase for a few crops in fer tility, and rapidly decrease. Why? Because that which the grain extracts is not returned by the stalks. Phospho rus exists in homoeopathic proportions in the richest soils; this the grain must have, and though it absorbs but a small quantity, the product of years will ulti mately exhaust the soil which furnishes it. ana no amount ot stalks "slowed lin- dor" can restore it. To say that it will, is like arguing that taking ten pounds of flour from a barrel and putting back nine, will never exhaust its contents. One idea-ism is a pest on the farm as well as everywhere else. The farm is a miniature of nature's workshop. Plants and animals are laboratories in which the farmer works the raw material into valuable form, and the more value be can give it, at the least expense to the farm, the more profit he realizes. Stock, of all kinds give back to veg etation more than they receive, for their excrements contain products manufac tured in the animal, which are the most stimulating fertilizers; they give back nearly all the mineral matter they re ceive, except a small quantity of phos phate and carbonate of lime, which must bo supplied with bone dust. Hence the true economist will so adjust his stock, that all his fodder will be consumed coarse litter will absorb all the excrements of the yard,' and his fields be doubly enriched. The care less farmer complains of the few loads his yard affords he better complain of their quality after being washed by a year of rains, and burned by evapora ting suns.' I heard a farmer say he made ten loads of manure while fatten ing one hogl the manure was of more value than the hog! How much grain and hay would that ten loads produce? How much more stock that farmer might keep? -Thus is nature copied; a perpetual, circulation preserved; profit results on both sides, while the farm under a proper treatment is constantly growing more productive.

JIv ItK.va Uncf.k: It is with different f'oelinjrs that I set mvself to pen tliee lines to you, from those which actuated m'e.wlieu. I wrote you last. Then aJl looked bnght and cheenly ,n the futme -now how gloomy and portentous, still 1 fervently "pray God that this cup may j pass away from us." The country here is all rfiw u ltli flip firr4 rf rrtvnlntinn and such is the intensity of excitement. ttiat we can scarcely find time or incli nation to talk or think of anything" else than the political topics of the day, and j the moral and social consequences di rectly pertaining to secession. I fear, that secession and revolution are, with jour people, foregone conclusions; that we nave gone so tar, retraction and re cession are impossible, and that civil war, with all its consequent horrors, is already upon us. I shudder for the wives and mothers, sisters and babes of South Carolina, as I contemplate the im mediate future of the State. You need not be surprised at any time to see me and the children in your midst, for no argument could induce.. vva,-ta! remain, here an hour longer than I should be compelled to, if the worst should come to the worst. You may imagine, dear uncle, our sit uation, but you never can realize it in its fullness. Already we tremble iu our homes in anticipation and expectancy of what is liable to burst forth at any mo ment, a negro insurrection. Could you see the care and precaution displayed here by the proprietors of the negroes, not only planters, but others, you would not for a moment envy us our posses sions. Not a night passes that we do not securely lock our, field servants in their quarters; but our most loved and valued house servants, who iu ordinary times we would trust to any extent, are watched and guarded agaiDst with all the scrutiny and care that we possess. Our planters and owners of slave prop erty do not allow their servants to have any intercourse with each other, and the negroes arecon fined strictly to the premises- where they belong. W'e are all obliged to increase our force of overseers to prevent too free intercourse even among our own servants. The negroes feel aud notice these new restraints, and naturally ask "Why is this?" But it is unnecessary for tbein to ask the ques tion, for they all comprehend the cause as well as we who ow.i them. They have already learned enough to give them an idea of what is going on in the State and nation, and this knowledg; they have not gained from Abolitionists, as some suppose, but from the conversa tion of their owners indirectly held in their presence. They have already heard of Lincoln's election, and have heard also that he is for giving them their liberty, and you may imagine the result. You have heard that our servants all love their masters, and their masters' families, and would lay down their lives for them that the colored race in the South prefers Slavery to Freedom that they would not be free if they could, &c. That is but the poetry of the case, the reality consists in sleeping upon our arms at night in doubly bolting and barring our doors in establishing and maintaining an efficient patrol force buying watch dogs, and in taking turns in watching our sleeping children, to guard them and ourselves from Ihe ven geance of these same "loving servants" a vengeance which, though now smouldering, is liable to burst out at any moment, to overwhelm the State in spite of the Palmetto flags or State precautions. You at the North are not the ouly ones who are suffering financially by this new panic. The planters among us are really suffering from the depreciation in their property. Already negroes are not worth half price. No one dares to buy a servant, fearing lest-he, in doing bo, should be introducing upon his plan tation one tinctured with th.eidca of free dom. - - My husband has but a few servants I believe but thirty -one all told still I feel (ami so does he) that they are thirty-one too many in such times as these. He would sell them immediately, if it were possible, but the truth is he could realize nothing for them at nraa. ent, or at most not over half their real valno. ' Slaves are drno- in th mnrl-Pt , . , . , ... ' i my husband eays, and you know him well enough to judge of his judgment jn Such matters. J Nnir nn irnnl ia tn tlin milit-irv fmvo of the btate, to protect us against an in surrection. I presume, with tbe excep tion of Charleston, and perhapsa few large to ns, that tbe remainder of tbe State is situated very much as we are Lere; and I will give you an idea of how well prepared we are to resist a mob. Upon our place of about 1,200 acres we. have: of whites, males husband, two overseers, and my son of 18 rears; total, four; females self and cousin, little L.ucy and an overseer s wife four; of whom only four at the most are capable of bearing arms to offset which we have at least sevcuteen field hands sturdy young negroes beside tbe female ser vants.

It is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances of still greater alterative power as to afford an rffic tive antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to this large class of our afflicted fellow citizens.

Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but with this pabulum of lif disordered, there etui In no lasting health. Sooner ot later wim thing must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Sarsaparilla has, and. deserves much, lite reputation of accomplishing these ends, liut the world has been cgrogiotisly deceived by preparations of it, partly because the -drug alone has not all the rirttic that is claimed for it, but more lieeau-e iriauy piepttrations, pretending to ba concentrated exfracts. of it, contain but little.of tho virtue of Sarsaparilla,' or any thing else. . During late years the public .luive been mis led by large bottles, pretending to ;;ive a ijtiari of Extract of Sarsaparilla lor one lulr. II a .1 of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa rilla, but often no curative properties whatev er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsapavillii which Hood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, aud, has become synonymous with imposition and cheat.
