INCIDENTS OF THE OCUPATION OF CHAELESTON Tlu: correspondent of the .V. V. Tribune in his elaborate description of things as they appeared to him upon the occupation of the modem Babylon, relates the foilowing incidents : There was rather a humorous scene at the office of the Charleston Courier. The editors had run away, but the business man remained and hoped to save his property. Col. Woodford called at the office at an early hoar, and theffollowing conversa tion took place: Col. W—"Whom have I the pleasure of ad dressing, sir?" Newspaper Proprietor—"Mr. L—, sir.' Col. W—"Will you do me the favor, sir, to loai me a sheet of paper ?" Mr. L—(Looking at thej Colonel's shoulder straps)—" Certainly, sir."' /. Col. W—"Thank you, Mr. L—; aught 1 tv# you for pen and ink ?" Mr. L—"With pleasure sir.' /, j Col. W—(Begins to write) —"Really, sorry to trouble you so much, but | flow ; will you be good enough to get p ' tie?" at all " Mr. L—"Oh certainly, sir: no tan 1 '"" Col. W— [writes.) / .

" —[The New York Tribune. Feb. 22, 1865. ' I write this last paragraph in the editorial rooms down town, of the Charleston Mercuty. The window glass and sashes are shattered by shot- Over the mantle-piece, in pencil-marks, are writ ten these lines, wnfoh show that the irrepressible spirit of radicalism (but on the right side now) seems to inhabit the office still: For President in 1868. WEN DELL PHILLIPS, of Massachusetts. For Vice-President, FRED. DOUGLAS, of New York. •Shades of Calhoun —how are the mighty fallen! Surely the great nullifier's bones must rattle in impotent rage at the overthrow of his heathen philosophy. AN INCIDENT OF THE WEST. "Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast." Some years since a temperance man moved with his family from New Hampshire to the West.— The sparseness ot the population, and the oontinu al travel past his place, rendered it a necessary act of humanity in him frequently to entertain travel lers who could go no farther. Owing to th# fre quency of these calls, he resolved to enlarge his house and put up the usual sign. Soon after this an election came on ; the triumphant party felt that it was a wonderful victory, and some young bloods of the majority determined, in honor of it, to have a regular "blow out." Accordingly moun ted on their fine prairie horses, they started on a long ride: Every tavern was visited on their round, and the variety thus drank produced a mix ture. which added greatly to the noise and boister ousness of the company. In this condition they came, about a dozen in number, to our quiet tem perance tavern. The landlord and lady were ab sent—the eldest daughter fourteen years of age) and five younger children, were alone in the house. These gentlemen, (for they called themselves such, called for liquor. We keep none," was the mod est reply of the young girl. "What do you keep tavern for, then ?" "For the accommodation, of travellers." "Well then accommodate us with something to drink." "You see, sir, by the sign, that we keep a temperance tavern." (Here the children clustered around their sister.) ' 'Give me an axe, and I wiil cut down the sign." "You'll find an axe on the wood-pile, sir." Here the par ty, each one with an oath, made a rush for the wood-pile, exclaiming : "Down with the sign ! Down with the sign!' But the leader, iu going out, discovered, in an adjoining room, a splendid piano and its accompaniments. "\V ho makes this thing squeak ?" said he. "I play sometimes," said she, in a quiet, modest manner. "You do ? Give us a tune." "Certainly, sir," and taking a stool, while the children formed a circle close around her, she sung and played the "Old Arm Chair." Some of them had never heard a piano before ; others had not heard one for years. The tumult was soon hushed ; the whip and spur gen tlemen were drawn back from the wood pile, and formed a circle outside the children. The leader again spoke : "Will you be so kind as to favor us with another song ?" Another was played, and the children, becoming, re-assured, some of them joined their sweet voices with their sister's. One would touch the sympathies of the strangers, an other melt them in grief; one would arouse their patriotism, another their chivalry and benevolence; at leogth, ashamed to ask for more, they each made a low bow and thanked her —wished her a good afternoon, and left as quietly as if they had been at a funeral. Months after this occurrence, the father, in travelling, stopped at a viUiage, where a gentleman accosted him with: "Are you Col. P , of H ?" "I am." "Well, sir, lam spokesman of the party who so groslsy insulted your innocent family, threatened to cut down your sign, and spoke so rudely to your chil dren. You have a just cause to be proud of your daughter, sir ; her noble bearing ana fearless cour age were remarkable in one so young and unpro tected. Can you pardon uie, sir ? I tell youthat I can never forgive myself," TAX ON WHISKEY. —The President having signed the new revenue bill, the Comtfiissioner of Internal Revenue is taking the necessary steps to collect the tax of two dollars a gallon "on all spirits that may be distilled and sold or distilled and removed for consumption of sale on and after January Ist, 1865." It will now behoove whiskey drinkers to reflect se riously before determining to pursue their vocation any longer. Soon they will see, staring at them in big black letters from behind the bars they frequent the melancholy anncucement, "Whiskey 20 ctsper. drink." W HIT IKG TO THE LOBD ON THE SUBJECT OF RAIL ROADS.—At the breaking of the ground for the com mencement of the Lynehburgh and Tennessee Rail road, at Lynehburgh, a clergyman slowly and sol emnly read a manuscript prayer, at the conclusion of which an old negro, who had been resting with one foot on his spade, and his arms on the handle, looking intently in the chaplain's face, straightened himself up, and remarked audibly "Well, I reck on dat's tne first time de Lord'seber been writ to on the subjic b railroads." Dr. Franklin,*speaking of education, says: "Ifa man empties his purse into his head, no man can take it away from him. An investment of knowl edge, always pays the best interest.' I. M.

Wickersham, Esq., firm of Wickersham 4 Hutchison, tho celebrated Manufacturers of Fancy- Iron Works, 259 Canal St. lam the recipient from you of one of the greatest fa v _>rs that can be conferred upon man, viz: that of health, lor many years have I suffered from one cf the most an noying and debilitating complaints that the human fami ly can be afflicted with, Chronic Diarrhea. During the long time I was suffering from this disease. I was attended by regular physicians, giving me but tem porary relief. The cause seemed to remain until I was indue id to try Hoofiaud's German Bitters. After the use of a few bottles of that valuable medicine, the complaint appeared to be completely eradicated. I often inwardly thank you for such a valuable specif,# and, whenever I have an opportunity, cheerfully recom mend it, with full confidence in its reliability. Truly yours, JOHN B. WICKERSHAM.

Jones 4 Evans—Gentlemen: j I have recently been laboring under tho distressing effects of indigestion, a -com paniod by a prostration of tho nervus system, numerous remedies were recommended by riends, anu s ,me of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofland's German Bitters were recommended by persons who hau tried them, and whose favorable mention of the Bitters induced me also to try them. I must confess thut I had an aversion to Patent Medicines, from the "thousand and one" quack "Bitters" whose only aim seems to be to palm off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the couimuuitv. in a sly way; and the tendency of which, I fear, is to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learning that yours was really a medicine preparation, I took it with hippy effect. Its action was not upon only the stomach, but upon the nervous system, was prompt and gratifying. I feel that I have derived great and permanent benefit from the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully v § s, W. D. SEIGFRIED. No. 254 Shackaiuaxon St. From the Rev. Thos. Winter. D. D..
