DICHTER. iimadi Carolina Chivalry.—Lattor from Ni. Joll iffe Mr. Jolliffe, a lawyer of Cincinnati; Who visited Charleston recently on business connected with the estate of the late Elijah Willis, whose emancipa tidn of his slaves has been the subject diso'much comment, bas given the kilowing account of his treatment there in a letter to the Cincinnati Gazette of July 17 :—Ere. Post. "CINCINNATI, July 16, 1855. "Messrs. Editots: As something has been stated in newspapers re stpicting my treatment in South Caro lina, it is due to some gentlemen in that State that I make a correct state ment. . "On the 29th of June I went to Barnwell, in Barnwell District, South Carolina; delivered a letter of intro; duction to a gentleman in that place, and rout up at a hotel. The next morn-. ing I was informed by a gentlenian who called on me for• that purpose, that, near the town, there was a meet ing-of some persons from the country to consult in reference to myself but that they had been persuaded not to rifolest me:• •'After breakfast I was met in the hall of the hotel by two men, Captain Wulker and John Mixon, who stated that it was their purpose to take me back to Williston, and that a buggy was ready fur me at the door. They assured me that I would be treated as a gentleman, and, upon my invita tion went into my room. I locked the door; Mixon seemed a little Carnied, but I pointed to my pen-knife lying on a stand, and assured him it *as my only weapon, and reminded him that they were two to one. I then explained to them the purpose of my visit: I agreed to go with them as soon as I should pay my bill. When that was done, Col. Barney H. Brown (to whom I had a letter of introduc tion from Rev. Joseph T. Robert, of Zinesville,) and other gentlemen took Walker and Mixon aside, and, after tome conversation, induced them to forego their purpose of taking me from Barnwell. Col. Brown and others , then returned to me and told me that I had the privilege of remaining in Barnwell till I could transact my busi ness. I replied that I claimed it as a right and wanted no privilege. I was then told that it was objected to me, that I was an abolitionist. I said to them : '1 am an abolitionist to the very core of my heart.' After that, several gentlemen called to see me, and I was treated not merely with kindness, but with marked civility and respect. I feel myself greatly indebted to Col onel Brown, and other gentlemen of the town, for their kindness. "The whole outcry against me was raised, 1 believe, by heirs and debtors of Elijah's estate, hoping perhaps to frighten me from the discharge of my duty, and perhaps with the silly ex pectation. of having some influence upon their courts in the adjudication of a controversy respecting the will. "I staid in Barnwell until my law yer told me there was nothing more that needed my attention. I then re turned to Williston, and remained there until nine o'clock Monday morn ing, when I took the cars and went to Virginia, on a visit to my mother, and returned home. JOHN JOLLIFFE." Yoa will be Wanted. Take courage, my lad. What if -you are but an humble, obscure ap prentice ; a poor, neglected orphan ; a scoff and a by-word to the thought less and gay -who despise virtue in rags, because of its tatters ? Have you an intelligent mind, untutored 'though it be ? Hive you a virtuous aim, a pure desire, and an honest heart ? Depend upon it, some of -these (lays you will be wanted. The time may be long deferred. You may ;row to manhood, and you may even teach your prime ere the call is made, but virtuous aims, pure desires, and honest hearts, are too few and sacred ,not to—bo appreciated—not to be wanted. Your virtue shall not al- Ways wrap you about as with a man tle—obscurity shall not always veil you from the multitude. Be chivalric td your combats with circumstances. ever active; however small may be lout sphere of action. It will surely inlarge with every movement, and your Influence will continue to in- Crease. " In the world's broad field of battle, In the bivouac of life, Be not like dumb, driven cattle— Be a hero in the strife." Work on ; for surely you will be *anted, and then comes your reward. Lean upon the sacred verity, " I have nate'. seen the righteous forsaken, nor liii:fand begging bread." Never de for the lives of good men abuia dmilily timtify that when clouds are blackest, and the tempest is fiercest; and' hOpe is faintest, a " still, small voice"will be heard saying, " Come up higher, you are wanted," and all your powers will find ample employ ment. Therefore, take heart, young man, for ere long you will find that you will be wanted.—Ambassador.
