A regularly ordained priest of ficiates, and a white man is "placed with" a colored girl in such a Manner that though - they violate law; decency and , good morals by living together ' they satie ty the demands of the , Church, and con fessional. The American quadroona,how ever riot beibg so strict Catliolib, and in some case having no religion at all, accept' an offer to be ,kept as a mistress from any, reliable white gentleman without ceremo ny. Previous to - the war the pldce obliga tion 'was more frequently incurred than since its close, and it is the ttniversaltevi dence of thore.wbo should knoW, that it, was seldom, if ever, violated on' the !part of the female. They lived as chaste and virtuous with their "soLcalled" husbands as they would- have done if ithey,bad been white and lawfully married.' It was cue, tomary for planters who raised children by their 'nigger queens" to free them With their mother; and send them to this city to be educated, and in many instances the, girls` were sent to Northern schools and' even to ,France.

Some men with ten thousand dollars a yc t. suffer more for want of means than others with three hUndred. The reason is, the richer man has artificial wants. Ilia income is ten thou-and. and by habit he spends twelve or fifteen thousand. and he suffers enough from being dunned for unpaid debts to kill a sensitive man. A mon who earns a dollar a - day, and does not run in debt; is the happiest of the two. Very few peo ple who have never been rich will believe this; but it is as true •at God's Word. There are people, of course, who are weal thy,_ and who enjoy their wealth ; but there are thousands upon thousands, with princely - income's, who never know a mo ment's peace, because they live above their means.

But the chicken having a_longhle for lib erty, and being also pressed for air, man aged to thrust his head through an open-, leg in Nat's old straw hat. Nat was pres ently accosted with—" What have you got in your' hat 2" "Nothing but my head," slid Nat. "Alit I see a chicken' s head sticking through the top of it, Nat."
