Couldnt Take the Oath Some time since in the performance of certain legal functions enjoined, it became necessary for an acquaintance of oars to take tbe oath to support the Government.

The party looked unite serious for a few moments, when demurely shaking his head, he said I cant do it, I cant do it. Why, sir, yon must do so, or yon cannot enter upon the duty, he was told. I cant do it, was the inexorable rs-1 sponsor But, my friend, why cant you do itt he was asked. I do, not like to tell why I cannot do it, was the answer. But, sir, we insist npon knowing the reason why you cannot swear to sapport the Government, said the of-fichu: ij: Well, replied our acquaintance, if I must tell, I must.

The reason is have a wife and twelve children jfco support; and thats as mnoh as I can do without undertaking to support the Government. Cotton la India, Messrs. J. C. Graham 06., of this Oity, have kindly placed at our disposal' a letter from their correspondents in Both bay, Messrs.

Then again, there is a repose and serenity about the manner of the young matron which renders conversation with her at once free from possible embarrassment. The giddiness, frivolity and loquacity of sweet sixteen, which, although temporarily charming, is apt to become fatiguing, lacking the culture and savior faire years bring. Marriage, however, hasthe effect ot settling all the sediments in the female character more or less, and as the current of life runs smoother with them, at least for a time, they can talk on some other subject than the everlasting one of sweethearts, beaux and matrimony. There is a subdued softness of demeanor, too, in the young matron which the belle of the season does not have. The exhilaration and excitement incident toa successful career as a young girl, which culminates in what is called the insolence ot beauty, is not visible in the manner of the belle retired yfrom business the young matron.

The more charming married ladies dispel the gloom incident to a dreary wilderness of unmarried ones by going out, the more delightful society will be. Freights. From J. C. Graham Co.s circular, Feb.

Bradficlds Female Regruliitonv We have often read in the newspapers of the grand success of medical compounds put np at tbe North and elsewhere. Many of those medicines have bad their day, and we hear no more of them. Their proprietors hare made fortunes, not so much from the curative powers and virtues of their mixtures, as from the notoriety given-them by advertising, by which people were made to believe all the good that was said of them.

A preparation is now before th6 public which is becoming very-jjopular, and is known as Brndfields Female Regulator, put up by L. H. Bradfield, of Atlanta, Ga at $1 50 per bottle. Such are its curative virtues, that it has gained wide-spread popularity all over the country where it has been made known, and it is being introduced everywhere. We are informed that immense quantities of this medicine are being sold in all sections of the South and Southwest, especially in the city of New Orleans and in Texas.

This much we say in justice to its proprietor, who is a gentlemen of integrity, and who would not engage in the manufacture and sale of a humbug.

The Nashville Banner of the 24th has the following in regard to the mishap which befell a couple of Alabama lov-yers a few days before A bucolic individual named Warren, accompanied by a Miss Bertie Dyer, from Alabama, made their appearance in Winchester, last Monday, procured the services ot a minister, and were married. It was-soon whispered among the gossips of the town that it was a runaway match.

From Winchester the loving couple went to Decherd, with a view of taking the first train on the Nashville and Ciiatta nooga railroad for Stevenson, Alabama. It so happened that after the bride had been put aboard the train, that the bridegroom was incidentally called away. During his absence the train rolled away, leaving the discomforted benedict behind, deploring the isolation of his precious young bride. By her request, conductor House carried her beyond Stevenson, to the place of meeting the northward-bound train, on which she returned to th place, and remained there musingdiso solateiy over the absence of her lord and master until be reappeared at Stevenson and relieved her intense anxiety.

A paragraph in a Eufaula paper an-nincing-the arrival in that city a few iys ago of a number of Northern me "cuanics, with the remark that they had readiiy obtained employment, has suggested to us the idea that in the efforts which areJreiDg made to build up our city, we lay too much stress on the encouragement erf capital and common' Ifl-bor, almost completely overlooking the most important element in the progress and permanent prosperity of a city the mechanic. We may build railroads and construct large business houses, and invite commerce to our city we may assist and encourage the planter to increase, hi? crops and produce more of the raw material or more bread and meat, but without mechanics to turn ail these things to local use, our city will still be nothing but a trading port without materially increasing either in population or permanent wealth. What Selma needs more than anything else now, is not men of great capital, but mechanics to woik up and make available the capital already here.

She wants the people men who can handle the plane and the saw, the ham rue? and the trowel the hardy smith, the plow maker, the wagon maker, and the manufacturer of the thousand and one toolsand implements which entei into and are necessary to itlie cultivation of the plantation or the transaction of other kinds of trade in a city. Commerce is a great thing for a city agriculture is an absolute requisite to the keeping it up but neither nor both of these can build a city, or keep it prosperous, without the aid of the mechanic. To tc mechanic we look for the laying out of our gardens and the beautify ingof our grounds. It is he that constructs the neat and pleasant cottage, the rich and elegant villa, or the costly and magnificent business house. He bui ds tiie farmers barns, he furnishes his house with the necessary utensils, he manufactures the different rubrics for which the planter and his family find use.

Mechanics build villages, wns and cities, and ii we md increase the population and the permanent wealth and prosperity of Selma, we must hold out every inducement for tnis class to settle and remain with us. We must do this by extending to those already here ail the patronage in our power, and by offering good wages and plenty oi work to others who may wish to come. We must furnish them with houses to live in at cheap rents, or we must sell ghem the lots on which to erect dwellings for themselves at prices which will come within their means. We must encourage them to make their homes among ns and to become identified, with the interests of the city. We must buy or have made at home thousands of things tor which we yearly send large sums to oilier points to purchase.

Even if we pay a trifle more for such articles here, it is better and more to the general advantage that we should encourage their manufac-tn re in our- midst than to patronize people wiwi have no interest in common with us a nd-stnd our money away to build up and enrich manufacturers elsewhere. One goo d. well supported and prosperous manufaci uring establishment in any branch, v.ould encourage others, and sood the. in crease of work and competition would U'eaen the price of the articles manuiactured and the manufacturer and the public gen erally would be benefited thereby. We already have some very useful and prosperous manufacturing establishments in the city, yet we daily see articles brought here from, the North or from some other distant point, which could be as well and, all things considered, as cheaply made here.

Buy where you can buy the cheapest, is a very good motto in general trade, but our people should remember that an article purchased at some distant point at a trifle less cost than it cun 'be manufactured at home, is not always the cheapest in the long run. In the one case, their money goes to the enriching of Borne one not interested in the prosperity of the place without any advantage to the purchase1 except in the bare use of the article pur, chased, while in the other case the money is kept at home, and they have the use of the article and the prospective advantage of the money returning to them in some shape or other. This is an important consideration in onr race for prosperity and tutu re greatness, and neither the people nor the mechanics now here should lose -sight of it. Let our manufacturers put their articles down to the lowest living prices, and then let the public buyevery-thjng need which can possibly be mSde here, and it will not be long before both parties will feel the beneficial effects of this policy, and the manufacturing and Tuttrlmnioai iuterests-of the city will prosper and be increased tenfold.

Washington, Feb. 24. In the House, Whittemore presented documents from the Governor ot South Carolina acoept-ing his resignation.

The Chair refused to recognize him as a member. A resolution was offered that Whittemore, late member, had dispensed West Point and naval academy appointments contrary to law, and for a pecuniary consideration, aud that be was unworthy a seat in the House, which was adopted almost unanimously. In the Senate, the disability bill, covering some three thousand names, was passed and goes to the President. i Mr. Stewart introduced a resolution declaring the expansion of the currency inexpedient, which was adopted by a large majority.

The fermentation period for gin distilleries is the same as whisky. Six days is fixed as the maximum for rum distilieris. Whittemore will appeal to his constituents for re election, i. Kirkpatricks distillery at Chattanooga has been seized together three hundred barrels of whiskey. The following is a resolution adopted by the Senate to-day Resolved That to add to the present irredeemable paper currency of the country would be to reader more difficult and remote the resumption of specie paymeuts, to encourage and foster the spirit of speculation, to aggravate the evils produced by frequent and sudden fluctuations of values, to depreciate tbe credit of the nation and to ctieck tbe healthful tendency of legitimate business to settle down on a safe and permanent basis, and tbere-fore, in toe pinion of the Senate, the existing volume of such currency ought not to be increased.

Cotton. The cotton receipts for the week ending last Friday, night were 96,424 bales at all United State ports, and the total since September 1st, 1869, 2,032,786 bales against 1,600,981 bales for same period last season; being an increase thus far of 431,805. The stock in Augusta, Macon, Columbus, Montgomery, Selma, Nashville and Memphis on the 18th was 111,129 bales. The Commercial and Financial Chronicle is now of opinion that the crop will be 3,000,000 bales. The amount of cotton at all European and American ports, and afloat for the same and in the interior towns mentioned above was 1,485,628 bales against last year, showing an excess in visible supply of 180,000 bales.

The Liverpool circulars of the 1st indicate that the amount of cotton received from India will be less than was at first estimated for 1870. Messrs. Lehman Brothers, in their New York circular of the 19th, say The continued liberal receipts, which were not expected, caused a Very heavy feeling among operators, and holders becoming alarmed, made great concessions. Many forced sales, made considerable below ruling quotations, preated quite an ex citement, and the market gave strong evidences panic. To-day it opened with a better feeling, that neither Liverpool nor the Southern markets responded to th8 focthe reason that neithei the Southern markets respon Their value cannot be estimated.

Holders feel as though the lowest point had been touched, for the present at least, and would sell only at quotations, with out forcing. Buyers at toe same time have shown more willingness to purchase at ruling figures.

We quote to-day 23 to 23 for low middlings. There are no good reasons for this heavy decline in jthe staple, and it would not have taken place were it not for toeTarge bear interests, the tatter doing all in their power to influence prices. However, on toe other hand, the continued heavy receipts prove that the crop has been underestimated, and that the visible supply is quite sufficient for the consumptive demand. We therefore cannot look for any material improvement, except speculation takes hold of toe article and forces prices up. In future deliveries the decline has been even more marked than in spot cotton, as understand on scemtft if weak here, who were unable to respond to calls made upon them for margins and JOHN H.
