MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga., A Til IT, 24, 1S83.
PARTIES.
la all governments where freedom of
opinion Is allowed, there will be parties
formed and established upon the merits of
public measures. Such parties exist in
England and they are based upon the re
spective opinions of public men as to the
rights of the people, under what Is termed
the English Constitution. But what Is the
English Constitution? One party in Eng
land defines the constitution to be one
thing, and another party defines it'to be
another thing, and this is so because the
English constitution is defined upon con
jecture and hypothesis, without plain and
written declarations to guide tho states
men of that country in tho formation of
their opinions. In the United States it is
altogether different, for the confederation
was formed upon compact—a bargain-
made and defined in writing, signed and
sealed by the great, free and sovereign
parties who made it. When parties, then,
are formed in this confederation, that par
ty Is the best which adh eres to the written
contract. The republican party is the par
ty of centralism, which, Mr. Madison said,
would overthrow our true republican in
stitutions and lead to monarchy. Tho
Democrats resist the doctrine of centrali
zation, and therefore, is the party of the
constitution. The republicans contend
that the Congress have the power to estab
lish a tariff to protect certain classes, and
the right, to tax tho people to sustain
those classes, when the constitution plainly
forbids it. The Democrats deny that Con
gress possesses that power, and therefore,
on this point, tho Democratic party is the
party of the constitution. Hence on these
two most vital questions, the Democratic
party is the party of principle and the de
fenders of the rights of the States and the
rights of all the people of all the States.
For these reasons, passing over all other
and less essential matters, we adhere,
heart and soul to the Democratic party.
Tho mind is sometimes inflected from a
right course by interest, by prejudice and
passion, and very often by adopting ideas
not warranted by facts, taken up loosely
without reflection and accurate investiga
tion. In these great matters of public
policy, involving fundamental principles
of liberty and justice, we call to mind the
obligations ot tho duty of citizens. Is there
such a principle as political duty? Certain
ly. In government, founded as our is, the
government is bound, by duty to the peo
ple, to impose nothing upon them in vio
lation of the constitution, in other words,
in violation of tho bargain made. If the
government imposes upon the people not h
ing in violation of the bargain made, then
It is the duty of the people to submit. These
reciprocal duties involve not only political,
but moral obligations. If, In the constitu
tion, which defines the powers granted
and the powers reserved, it is expressly
declared that tariff duties shall bo imposed
only to raise revenue, it follows necessari
ly, that tho government violates its duty
If those duties are imposed to make one
portion ot tiiepeople contribute to thesup-
port of another portion. Ono of the ten
commandments says, “Thou shalt not
steal.” Another one says among other
things, “Thou shalt not covet anything
that is thy neighbors.” Tho United States
law, that forces the people to contribute of
tbeir means to add to the means of manu
facturers. is not theft, but legal robbery.
Theft is to take, privately and feloniously
the property of another. Itobbery is to
take another’s property by force. There
are two kinds of robbery; one is to take an
other’s property by personal force without
the sanction of law, and the other is to
take it by the sanction of law. Both in
volve the violation of the great moral law
given by God to Moses ou Mount Sinai.
We would impress upon the reader the
sacreduess of duty. First, that solemn
duty, which is imposed upon us all, to obey
the behests of that Supremo Ruler who
will hold his creatures accountable for all
their acts In this sublunary life; second,
that duty, which no one cau safely disre
gard, to be just to his fellow creatures;
and lastly, that duty which all human cre
atures owe to themselves, and those who
are dependent upon them for maintenance
and protection. Let no one mislead him
self so far as to believe, that in politics, he
is exempted from these solemn obligations
of duty. If we believe, that in the Demo
cratic, there is more hope of safety
than in tho Republican party, are we
true to ourselves if we discard one of its
consistent doctrines, perhaps, at tho pres-,
enttime, the most vital of ail, its opposi
tion to a high protective tariff? What can
we gain by going over to the Republican
doctrine on that absorbing question? If
the Democrats forsake their old principles,
they can no longer claim to be the party of
the people; and, In 1884, they will be left
out in the cold, with a frozen banner and
all their hopes as dead as inglorious de
feat can make them. Wo might as well cel
ebrate its funeral now. Under the protec
tive tariff banner, they might try to sing
“Hail Columbia Happy Land,” but the re
joicing Republicans would, sneeringly,
add: “ir you ain’t ruined I’ll be damned.”
Yes, if the party is resolved on suicide, wo
might as well now at once, take the old
chair of Jefferson and cut it up into me
mentoes of the glorious past, and leave
them as reminders of former glory and
warnings, to some future generation, of
the fate of treachery to principles, justice
and human rights. For in that case,
night dews would weep over the grave of
democracy, and night winds shriek over
the tomb of its greatness. But Demo
crats, be of good cheer! With a few ex
ceptions, Georgia is arming for tho con
test. The clarion notes of Georgia’s repre
sentatives, will be added to those of Mor
gan of Alabama, Coke of Texas, Carlisle,
Beck and all the rest of Kentucky. Now
York, Michigan, Indiana, Tennessee, At-
kansasand numerous other states, recent
ly represented at a great Democratic
banquet in Chicago, at which Bayard was
present and made a ringing speech, united
in thundering cheers to the toast, “A Tariff
for Revenue Only.” Day is breaking now,
darkness is turning to light. Wo look to
the Democracy to guide us to safety, as
the Israelites did to the pillar of lire, to
lead them to tho promised land. Instead
f breaking up, or giving way, they are
bracing up and standing shoulder to shoul
der for the great campaign of 1881.
XV. A. HARRIS ON ITtOHIBITION.
From Letter to Hon. Ben Russell.|
‘•You ask how prohibition has worked. I
answer that language is inadequate to tell
you the blessings, the joys it has brought
to us. Twin sister or blessed religion, pro
hibition lias made us a new people, made
the drunkard a sober and useful citizen,
who to-day thanks God for the blessing.
Nothing could prevail on my people to
agree to repeal the law that has blessed us
with prohibition. Our criminal docket is
fast disappearing, no killings, not even
fusses. At the sessions or our superior
courts heretofore, often jurors were drunk,
witnesses the same; and at night in this
Village it was as if pandemomium reigned
supreme—a second edition of Coup’s circus
was being enacted on the streets and in the
barrooms. Such scenes are harrowing to
think of now, nnd we prefer to be blotted
from existence before that hydra-headed
monster is allowed among us again. Take
our wives and children and make ono com
mon funeral pile of them fir-t; yea, go to
every caravan now in tho United States,
open the cages of the wild animals gather
ed from the jungles of Asia and Africa, and
turn them loose upon us, and we will try
and forgive you, and attribute the act to
Insanity, but in God’s nume don’t curse us
with whiskey again. I have seen m the
days of whiskey twenty-five lights in this
i lsabellal village, and all caused by whis-
tey; now all Is peace and quiet. Tell your
people to vote for prohibition, and they
vote a new era upon their county, freight
ed with plenty, pewe and happiness.
“A doubtful friend Is worse than a cer
tain enemy.” and vice versa a certain friend
is Infinitely lietter than a doubtful ene

bly' better lnend to the human race than
whole catalogues full of doubtful nostrums.
It is an unfailing remedy for that torment
ing disease piles. It moves the bowels
irautlv and freely, and thus removes the
cause. Do not fail to try it faithfully eith

Nbw York, April 18.
Editor Union & Recorder:
TUe metropolis is packing up. that is to
svf. the annual moving day Is approach
ing, and with It tho usual discomforts in
cident to a change of base. Aocompanio 1
jg generally, with a state oT irritation
among tho moving class, its infection
spreads all along various lines of trade
and amusomout and not till New York is
once mme settled down under the benign
Influence of a fine May morning will there
be peace and happiness in many a house
hold. The carpet dealers and eartmen,
however, greatly enjoy the fun at this
season of the year and they already rub
their hands In advance of coming profits.
The Spring trade is opening tardily, si ill
tlit-re are many’ buyers here from the far
west and our hotels are filled with them;
that is to say the commercial hotels. These
men drink whiskey, smoke segais and vis
it the theatres, all at the expense of the
New York drummer, who “hangs around”
the hotel, waits for his man, watches like a
detective the Western man’s movements,
fawns upon him, gives him taffy’, bores
him, annoys him, all for the purpose of
selling iii m a bill of goods. Some of these!
shrewd Western fellows take it all in, th- 5 j
whiskey’, cigars, theatre and the tafT.v, and i
then buy their goods elsewhere. The New
York drummer is a peculiar animal Icri !
genesis; ho must be met to be appreciated.
He is a swell at all times, but I doubt j
whether, with his late hours in escorting |
customers around the town, and his early
hours iu watching for new arrivals, there j
is a harder worked sot of men In the city. '
Some of them are in league with the hotel
clerks, who give them “the tip” when an
individual designated us “fresh” makes for
the first time his appearance in the New
York market.
With all this, however, merchants hero
say business Is not as good as it ought to
be, and remittances come in slowly. Da
kota and Colorado are furnishing just now
a fair quota of buyers, and, I might add,
a number or liars. 1 overhead the other
night two fellows from Dakota, apparent
ly bent upon making large purchases here,
tell yarns about their would be State that
puts John T. Raymond’s “Gilded Age” en-
tiiely in the shade, and his “Millions in It”
compare as nothing to what these Dak- ta
fellows related about their particular sec
tion. I trust the merchant who listened to
them will give them a long credit prior to
ascertaining how much truth there is in
all he was told about the grand summer
business that is to be done there this year.
Sime the Barwick breach of promise
ease, where, for the first time lu legal his
tory’, a man sues a girl for a round sum of
money for refusing to marry him, li is
been engaging the attention of tho court
and the press, quite a crop or young men
of the town have sprung up with claims
upon the troth of fair damsels whose pa
pas are well fixed. They do not all
get into the papers as rich papas hate
nothing more than public scandal, and
in many cases are ready’ to compro
mise in cash with the aspirant for his
daughter’s hand. I know of a good look
ing Sixth avenue shopwalker who, after ta
king a young lady several tim j s to the
theater and having become known as her
fiance in as well as outside the family man
sion, but was finally jilted, succeeded iu
getting a clean $3,000 out of the old gentle
man, and no 6uit for damages was ever
thereafter heard of.
The wealthy Hebrew families of this city
are scandalized by’the reports which have
found their way in print, in regard to the
misuse of the trust fund, by the sons of
the late Mr. Alfred Tobias. The latter died
a few years ago, leaving property, mostly
in bonds and other securities, amounting
to over a million, making his wife and two
eldest sons, Washington and Henry, exec-
tors. The good-natured old lady’ of course
left tiie management of the estate entirely
in the hands of her sous, but she had her
suspicions aroused one day when the lat
ter advised her to convert everything into
cash. It then leaked out that the boys had
been "speculating on the wrong side of Wall
strivt, and the younger brethren kicked,
so tho affair became bruised about that
the trust fund had been abused. Whatev-
e; truth there maybe in the various sto
ries connected with this case, one thing Is
sure, Washington Tobias has been com
pelled to resign from the Turf Club, where
he.it is alleged, gambled at a high rate
and lost, and the club has since been com
pelled to change its name so as no longer
to rest under the odium of being a gamb
ling club.
And yet, it is a well-known fact that with
the exception of the Union League Club
and the Manhatten there is hardly a so-
called “respectable” club in this city where
gambling at a tremendous gait is not go
ing on at a furious rate night after night.
There is one Jewish club on Forty-second
street where every Sunday, after eleven
o’clock, table after table is occupied by men
who play cards for high stakes, and why
the police, whose attention have been fre
quently called to it, do not interfere, is a
mystery, except, perhaps, to the Captain
of'tho precinct, who has, no doubt, ids
certain number of "reasons” for leaving
them securely alone.
The exodus to Europe lias just set in,
and the Flora McFIimseys and Fifth ave
nue noodles are packing up their traps Tor
a Summer excursion to tue old world. The
Alaska, the fastest of the modern fleet of
ocean steamers, sailed on the 13th with an
immense passenger list, and the steamer’s
decks were crowded with the very elite of
New York, bidding their friends good bye
amid a shower of kisses and buoquets.
Young de Lesseps is the lion of the town
this week, the envied of all and flirted with
by the belles of society. Ex-Mayor Grace
gave him a line dinner, but the young
Frenchman who has just been attending to
some hard-work for his father in connec
tion with the Isthmus Canal was terribly
bored with the tedious after dinner speech
es, and his enjoyment really begun when
he sauntered from the dining-room with
some of his enumsand visited some of the
less stright-iaced establishments along
Broadway and Sixth avenue.
Elephant steak was served up at a Nas
sau street restaurant last Monday. Wheth
er true or not the host said that it was
part and parcel of tho ugly fellow who had
to be killed by Barnum’s men last week
and whose carcass after being cut up by an
army of butchers was sent to the four corn-
ers of the city. Radix.

From tho Atlanta Constitution.
Everything is lovely now. All nature is
at last robing herself in beauty, and every;
body is trying to bo happy. I hope. Its
mighty hard for some folks to be happy.
You see there, is a liver in most every-,
body and one or two kidney’s, and a dia-
piiratn and ft heart, though they say that
some folks haven't got a heart. Then
there is a spine and some lungs, and a
whole lot of trigger work and traps ail
through a man's system, and some of ’em
are always getting out of order, and the
doctor can’t get to’em to fix ’em, and the
man becomes miserable and can’t be hap
py. Some folks get so used to these things
that misery becomes second nature to ’em
and they sorter like it and are never hap
py unless they are- miserable. Neverthe
less I think it is every man’s duty to be as
happy as he can, liver or no liver, for no
body likes for a grumbling, growling,
complaining man to come around. He is a
sort of public nulsanco and ought to be
abated. But most everybody’ seems to be
happy now. Some of us wanted Governor
Boynton nominated and some wanted Ma
jor Bacon, and some wore for McDaniel
and some for Phil Cook, but we eouldent
all of us have our man except county,
and that county split up into fractions and
voted for ’em al! and got their man at
last, which I reckon was a good plan for it
showed how popular they all were with
the people. Our Bartow delegation would
have done the same tiling I reckon, but
there were but seven of us and when we
tried to split up into fiactions we dident
understand enough arithmetic to do it.
Seven wouldent go into four no way we
could fix it, and leaveany sort of an intelli
gible remainder. But McDaniel is a good
man and we are all content, and just so wo
would have been content with Bacon or
Cook, or most any other good man. I’m
proud lo say there are lots of us who
would have made a good governor. Mc
Daniel is mighty popular now. Folks ali
say he is a splendid man. He is a heap
more splendider than he was a week ago.
I like that. When a man buys a horse he
ought to think more of him than he did
before he bought him. Let every man be
content with his own and brag on it too.
Let Georgians all stand by their governor.
Hold up his hands— strengthen him—
praise him—encourago him. I believe in
state pride and county pride and homo
pride. I’ve heard these spreadeagie ora
tors and statesmen say with uplifted
hands, “I know no north, no south, no
east, no west;” but I never believed ’em,or
if I did I never liked ’em, for they are away
up above me and out of my patriotic reach
or they’ are lying ami have got no patriot
ism at all. Iain for my homo first—ray’
castle, as Mr. Blackstone calls it. There
is where all my happiness is centered, and
1 don’t want any mail to invade it, with bad
intent. My home is sacied to me and that
is what makes we reverence the memory
of John Howard Payne. “Home, sweet
home,” comes home to the heart of every’
husband nnd father. Home is the dearest
word on earth to me, for it shields me and
protects me and comforts me. You may
talk about honor and office, and riches and
power, but I have no earthly’ ambition
higher than a happy home. I love to go
abroad and mix with our people, and I en
joy tiie communion of old friends, but
there is all tiie time some willing influence
pulling me back to home and to my own
humbie fireside, and to the soft and true
endearments or wife and chilJren and fa
miliar places. But next to home comes
my’ own naborhood, my precinct, my vi
cinity, and i want to stand up for that,
and then comes my county, and I will
never go back on that until it goes back on
me; and then comes my state—the grand
old state that gave mo birth, and where
ray loved ones are buried and in whose
dust I expect to be laid. I love old Geor
gia for a thousand memories. I love her
for her grand old patriarchs and states
men who have gone before. The Craw
fords and Lamars and Troup and Berrien
and Cobbs and McDonald and Clark and
Lumkins and Holts and Doughertys and
Forsyths and a host of others, going a-
way back to Mi Hedge and Jackson. State
pride is an honorable pride, and I want
our young men to feel it. Don’t let mon
ey or ambition smother it. Listen to tho
history of our people, and ponder it. I
never saw Mr. C. C. Jones until the past
week, and I tell you I felt proud that our
state had nurtured and preserved him—a
grand man and a good man—the man of
all others to perpetuate the noble history
of Georgia—the man to write up and re
cord the deeds of her people. I have
thought a good deal about education, and
1 tell you in all seriousness that I be
lieve tho be9t education for a boy is to
lead the history’ of great and good men
Biography is example, good example, and
if it is well and faithfully written, and
pleasantly written It is the best school a
young man can go to. Read the lives of
great and good men, you will never forget
It and it will do you good. Mr. Jones is
tho man of all men to write it. How
grandly lie looks—how grandly he talks.
Is there a parent in tho land who would
not feel proud for his son to bo like him.
I h onor him, I love him, and the best heri
tage I would ask for my boys would be to
sit at his feet like Paul sat at the feet of
Gamaliel. He can write a history of all
tho heroes of Georgia and he only can do
it right. It would be a wonderful book
when written and bo a treasure and a liv
ing influence for good in every patriot’s
family in the state. Let us love our state
and stand by it and next—yes, next let
our hearts reach out to our whole coun
try but let us never forgot our state. It
is not easy to bo a universal philanthropist
—a lover of all mankind but I will say
this, if we have loved home and county
and state and country sufficiently then if
we have any love left to spare, let us
reach out and love the world—even to the
heathen Chinee. McDaniel Is a good
man and I am proud of him. I knew him
before the war and during the war and
since. He Is no Chevalier Bayard, no Lord
Bacon, no Daniel Webster, but he is a
good man, an honest man, a true man in
all the relations of life. He lives up to the
full measure of his capacity and that is all
we can ask or any man. There is no sense
In idolizing him or making him out a god.
lie is a sab- man lo trust and is capable of
the ti ust confided to him and that is praise
enough to say or anybody. A feeling or
quiet, confidence in him pervades the land
and wo know he will come up to the full
measure of our cxnectations. He comes
from good solid stock and I believe In
stock. His good old father taught school
at Penfieid and educated such noble men
ns Dr. J. S. Lawton and his brother, W. S.
Lawton and many others tike them. Need-
ent talk to 'em about folks springing up
from the people and being of the people
and for the people and all that sort of fool
ishness. That Is where I come from my
self-, but I admire blooded stock in folks
just like I do in horses, or Jersey cows, or
sheep, or hogs, or chickens. I like to see
liuo slock that has a pedigree, but I don’t
want to sec young men depend on it. If
their father was blooded stock let them
keep up the biood. A man asked Mr.
Stephens one day where ho got his extra
ordinary powers, and ho answered “I in
herited them, sir, from my father. He was
a notable man in his day.” Let the son
work up to the honored sire, and Improve
the stock rather than let it go down. Ma
jor McDaniel will do that. I am sure, for
hehasgrlt-in him and firmness and is al
ways absorbing knowledge. All hall to our
next governor.
And there is Major Bacon. He is good
stock. Heneedeut tie talking about retir
ing from politics. That is all superfluous.
Wo will not let him retire. We have a use
for such men, and he is young enough yet.
Major Bacon is a born aristocrat in man
ners but not in heart. I like aristocrats
in office. That is, I like men in high offleo
who can do the honors in an aristocratic
way. He would receive distinguished
guests from other states in a splendid
way and make us feel proud of him. I
don’t want no hoosier In the governor’s
chair. I don’t want Cube there, and Cobe
don’t want to be there. Let us take things
as we find ’em. There is a fitness in things
everywhere. And Major Bacon is fit to be
a governor. Well, Boynton is too. I’ve
done saw that and everybody knows it,
and I am for him yet, and would put him
in to-morrow if 1 could. But as Dr. Miller
says, I always “acquiesce.” General Cook
sits close by me while I am writing, and I
wish he was governor too. He is a good
man and 1 love him. He fought for me
and my niggers. He has got the rheuma
tism now and I told him I could oure him
with Blairs’ pills but he said lie had taken
a peek of ’em. and so I subsided. Well, If
he don’t get Ids reward in this world, he
will in the next, and so tts all right any
how. Bill Arp.

jNOBGDY’S HERO.,,
BY JULIA MASON.
*• ,
No hero was be—ouly plain Roy McLe
od. -•Little Roy he was always palled from
first to last; from the very first day, his pit
iful baby life w hen ho w sad to tel 1-no tender
mother held him, the wee, cold stranger, to
her warm heart, with a promise silent, yet
true as heaven, of protection against the
many iUs to which.she had ushered him
alt unwittingly. Boor little soldier!
Thrust into the great battle of life, all un-
j warrteft, unarmed, even by the shield of
I mother love. Old}’ Mother Rose, faithful
| and kind, held him in her great, strong
j arms, and she wiped many a big tear from
! among the wrinkles of her old black face
j as she looked at tiie little speck of human-
i ity. “Poor little Massa Roy”—but here
| two big blue eyes opened in protest, and
| Mammy Rose was stricken dumb by the
wondering gaze. Brave blue eyes one
might have called them, only baby was
so frail and tiny. Little Roy they always
called him in the fair Southern village
where his childish years went by on their
laughing, dancing, way. He was ever a
merry, hardy stpip of a boy, all life and
frolic, but happy? No—child happiness,
without mother to watch and nourish it,
is a plant that never thrives. Little Roy
still, even when lie counted seventeen sum
mers; and plain, almost to ugliness;
naught to save him that verdict but the
same brave, blue eyes that had cheeked
so effectually Mammy’s heartfelt pity-
eyes strong and true in their steady light,
and above them a broad, open brow,
whore dwelt a something indefinable—a
something, shall we say, akin to majesty?
Little Roy though he was. ho could re-
memoer no day in his life \vh->n his heart
had been too small for its dret-m of love—
love for a radiant, gleesomo maid, who
had been the sweetest, wildest, merriest
of playmates, in the days when they two
climbed trees together, waded barefoot
the woodland branches, rolled over the
green hillsides on the sunny days, or
made mud pics on the rainy ones. Bonny
Alice had something of the Gypsy in her
natui-ea3 well as in her great beaming,
dark eyes, and as Roy had neither mother
nor father to say him nay, they had a glad
free life of it, all full of ups and downs,
and freaks and pranks, of Hie maddest
kind. They had played at love-making in
their simple way, when Alice’s frocks just
touched her knee and Roy’s jackets were
as tailless as his well-worn summer kites
—or rather, lie did all the love-making
and site took it quite like a little queen whose
right It was, and forgot all about it the
next moment in a way stanch fittie Roy
did not at all like, boy though lie was.
And so the days sped on, and the self
same summer that made up his seventeen
years with rosy fingers traced “sweet six
teen” for Alice Adair. But the summer
| was dying away, slowly dying, nnd Allie
' and Roy, taking a last long stroll togeth-
! er, had thrown themselves down to rest
j at their old place, tho green mossy bank
j near the woodland spring.
“1 don’t like it, Allice, not at all! 1 have
a half mind to rebel even now, and just
say I won’t go.”
“And what good will that, do, pray tell me,
Roy?”answered Alliee. "You say,old grum
old guardy Is mold' d out of the granite of
tho everlasting Hills. Besides. It will all
turn out right. I dare say we’ll have a
glorious time, although rre are to seek our
respective alma maters so wide apart.”
“No doutit you will, no doubt but you
will have plenty of friends and, and—”
“And what, Roy?” and Allien smiles so
archly as she asks.
“And sweethearts, too,” blurted out hon
est Roy in his warm wav, his face flushing
red all over.
“Yes, sweethearts, too—all I ean manage
to s<*eure in the midst of eternal vigilance,”
and the little coquette laughs at tiie pros
pect that is making darkness in Roy’s
soul.
But when tiie inevitable break did really
come, nnd hand in hand they stood, ready
to say tiie first good bye of their lives, the
tears that drowned the great brown eyes
were as genuine, ir not so bitter as tho two
great drops that forced themselves slowly
and unbidden from Roy’s solemn ori>6.
Was there ever a parting without a taste
of tho bitterness and agony or death?
What wondertiiat lips trembled over the
word, eyes grew full and oVrfiowed, and
there was a choking way down—near their
hearts, perhaps-that cut short the un
said, but deepfelt, word.
The years sped on, though in their path
loomed up tremendous, threatening shad
ows, shadows of coming events; on, bring
ing and taking away just what God willed;
on, bringing to Allien and Roy an end to col
lege days that had been bright, yet bright
er than they dreamed they could tie un
shared with each other. Ignorant young
things, and oh! how happy in “their” ig
norance not to know the real meaning of
that worn phrase, so oft constructed in
Latin grammar days, that they knew it
by heart: “Terapora mutantur et cos in
illis.” Roy come back the same little Roy
he went away. He had made no career,
nor been a hero iu any sense, when it was
so easy to win a short lived, glittering
fame. Yet lie had made many friends, and
well they knew His open hand, his spirited
way of standing up to those who needed
a backer to see them through trouble. But
all things else had changed. Alice, the lit
tle wild blossom, had bloomed into a ra
diant, stately flower. She stood before
him, tail, graceful, regal, fair as tho dream
of a poet's soul; great dark eyes grown
softer, yet brighter; full of fire, romance,
tenderness, sentiment all that goes to make
a worshiping enthusiast at the shrine Fan
cy erects, and of the heroes Fancy places
therein ; heroes vested with tho attributes
and clothed in the garniture of God. Roy
lifted iiis hungry eyes up for the vision
they had craved so many days; but he
scarce dared look again, for the vision had
fled for aye; lost was his gay, girl com
rade, tho maiden (hat was the "all in all”
of his life; and this fair queen bearing his
lost love’s dear familiar name—sho was a
new experience. Yet, all things were
changed. There was a new-made grave
under the Southern skies, where slept
Peace, with all Its happy smiles and
songs, and its brow of golden calm. Over
the land It had blessed and rnado beauti
ful floated tho blood-rod banners of war.
Campfires Hashed out in the blackness of
the night; the tramp of gathering cohorts
crushed to death the star-bright flowers
of tho valley; bugles called and
brave men and gallant youths stood
up to do and die for their own. Sumpter’s
guns had boomed, and lo! another world.
Roy McLeod was ever so quiet during
these first stirring days, but Alice Adair
was in a fervent glow of grand dreams.
“Oh, how I wish I was a man, Roy.”
“Even more than you once wished to be
a boy. Allice, when skirts and aprons stood
opposed to tree-climbing and the like.”
Roy laughed at the memory thus evoked.
“Oh, that was nonsense, Roy, but this is
hearty earnest.”
“And why would you be a man? There
are plenty of those rough specimens in
the land; whereas such rare and radiant
maidens whom the angels—”
“Oh! spare me, Roy; what is beauty
now? Woman that I am, lean only dream
and talk.”
“Do that in your own sweet way, and an
gels could do no more. I pledge me to do
all your fighting. Allice.”
“You, Roy! What folly! You are not the
stuff of which heroes are made—only lit
tle Roy—yet my dear, kind friend, all tho
same,” she added, for t here was such a
look of pain in Roy’s blue eyes. A mo
ment of silence, and then Roy quietly
said:
“There may be a post of duty even for
me, Allice. The sequel will show the stuff
that is in us ali.”
So, while Alice threw heart and soul into
the cause, cheering the brave, 6hainiug the
weak, Roy kept very still, and she thought
no more of him. It was a day for heroes,
and ho could never be one, he was only
“Roy.” She was startled, indeed, one
moonlight night in June, when he stood be
fore her on the balcony of her home and
said: ’T’vecomo to say good-bye. All ice;
I’m off to the war.”
“When, Roy?”
“To-night at twelve.”
““Don’t jest, Roy; you surely are not gc«
lag* what good"—
But the look of pain checked her again;
this time there was 'pride* top? in his
eyes. * .*f ' t
‘ Yea, Allies,acall for volunteers;! as been
made;’I am in ‘for the war,’ or for life, as
it may be.”
Roy’s voice wa9 firm enough, yet how
sad. Alice fell to thinking—what folly, Ids
going—there were men' enough to wago
and win the fight; besides she was
sorry to lose Roy; and her white fingers
ail the while were mercilessly"*pmlling to
pieces the fair blush rose lie had laid in
her hands on coming. Suddenly the two
fair hands wore crushed, roses and all.
Roy had seized them, and she almost cri
ed out with pain. His courage had come
back at last, and in a terribly earnest, elo
quent way he was telling the “old, old sto
ry” over again. And Alice listened, and
wondered how Roy had grown so suddenly
eloquent. She did not know that eloquence
was but tiie voice of real, deep feeling. It
touched her to hear his vows of fidelity to
his country and bis love, his dreams of
glory, the honors he would lay at her feet f
asgrandly as sho would have him do. Af
ter all it was only fittie Roy that was talk
ing, and Alice could not descend from the
grand height where she had set up a grand
Ideal.' So Roy only ♦on a few tender
words full of sincere regret, of real sorrow
—yes, for at tho thought of all his faithful
kindness and love she broke utterly down,
and sobbed out an appeal for pardon; that
she could give, no more. Then botli were
quiet, silent. A moment more and Roy
raised the little crushed palms to his lips,
bowed his head nnd pressed them against
his flushed cheeks, kissed them again and
again, lovingly, slowly, as if he could nev
er lay them down, then placed them back
in her lap and was gone without a
word.
The days sped on. Alice wondered, and
grew warm and tender, too, over the grand
deeds of “tiie men in gray”. Roy had been
among cannon and musketry, saber flash
and brislling steel, till it was ail as famil
iar as the flowers <>r his valley home.
Manassas had baptized him in blood and
marked him with the sign of carnage; for
a deep red scar on his brow had dashed
out some of its sunny youth. The thun
ders of Malvern Hill went echoing through
the mountains; not a man more dauntless
that little Roy faced the terrors of that
day. Even amid the blinding battle flash
es he saw his country’s colors fall; his the
arm that reared and plaeed them firmly
and was crushed and mangled even while
lie waved them aloft. Alice heard it all and
she said, bravo little Roy!” Then she
wrote aud begged lie would come home to
bo nursed, but he did not.
And well ho did not, for lie could not pos
sibly have been an indifferent observer of
Alice Adair’s new-found hero, nor of the
all-absorbing way in which she yielded up
her very soul to his keeping. Capt. St.
John was tall, dark, grand-iooking-born
to greatness, she knew. And, indeed, lie
was not a parlor knight alone, for many a
hard-fought field could attest ids courage*
Most men are brave, but it takes many
things to make up a great character.
The days of war rushed on with a thun
derous roar. Stonewall Jackson’s men
were reddening Virginia’s valleys with
blood, and making up a glorious history
for admiring posterity to read, liny Mc
Leod was only one or them, but not ono to
be calk'd a laggard in tiie brilliant lace for
freedom or a grave. Young as ho was,
slender nnd boyish in his jacket ot stained
and faded gray, not a veteran in that vete
ran legion but spoke his name with a glo'w
of pride. They loved him, too, nnd more
than one eye grew moist one day the day
of Shnrpsburg—ns tin* lul< - went round in
camps how lie h id fallen in the very face
of tiie foe, lighting as gallantly as world-
famed “Coeur de Lion,” anil the enemy had
borne him off the field dead. “Brave littio
Roy! We’ll see Ids like no more.” So
spoke Ids comrades all. With a great gulp
of something like remorse, Alice laid down
the letter of “Ouhown correspondent;” it
liiH told the tale In stirring words. “Dear
Roy; God bless him!” she said, almost in
a whisper. “Noble little fellow! Brave
little Roy!” Ever and anon the words glid
ed involuntarily into her thoughts, yet
never once did she think him a hero lit for
the pedestal where she had throned tiie
image of her handsome cavailier, Dohglas
St. John.
Months later she stood arrayed in bri
dal white, orange-blossoms gleaming in
the braids of her dark hair, and such a sof
tened yet glowing light in the great brown
eyes. Douglas St. John looked almost a
King, and there they were, plighting their
lives to each other, many guests standing
silent in tho great parlors, taking in tiie
handsome, regal looking pair, when up tiie
wide granite steps in front there hobbled
a crippled haggard man in gray. A small
man, young, but his face roughened and
aged by other things,not years; tin* gray
jacket was fadtd and tattered. He only
took one glance through the luce curtains
of the window opening on tho balcony;
stood a moment rigid as a statue, then
moved away. Next morning a note was
handed Mrs. St. John; ono of congratula
tion she thought, and with n smile she
opened and read:
I managed to come to life in a Federal
prison; I got out ana dragged ail these
weary miles to see you but now I had
rather go back to camp. God bless you,
dear. Good-bye. l£ov.
So Stonewall Jackson’s men got back
their pet and pride; they would have kill
ed the fatted calf, but they had none, only
hard tack and half-rations at that.
Who knoweth what a day may bring
forth? More: “Who Knoweth the many,
things, a year, especially a year of war
may bring forth?” A year had gone by
since Roy’s last look at Alice Adair; lie
would not have known her now. Dougias
St. John had proven himself “a king,” as
in her fond heart she had crowned him;
but a despot or a king, a coward of a des
pot, who could delight in crushin g so weak
a thing as a woman, helpless and in his
power, alien was too full of romantic
nonsense about love and all that; a few
cold sneers put it all to flight. She had
a will, and a woman should have one; he
put It under his foot and kept it there, to
al! appearances. She ex[>ected a husband
to be a lover; lie taught iier there was a
time for ail things under the sun and what
tempora mutantur meant in married life.
Ho was brave tn battle, and Alice was glad
to know it—she could honor courage still,
even with a heart that was strangely quiet
and empty. Ah! this year had brought
fortli miiuy things—things that had made
her think, with a sorrow and regret sad as
death, or the truest and noblest heart she
had ever known. The year left her a wid
ow, a saddened, subdued, aioappointed
woman. Her dreams of life had all gone
wrong. Did Roy see in her freedom a star
t»f hope alive for himself? Never! He had
noted the proud, happy light in tiio brown
eyes that were lift, d to the royal-looking
man who stooodat her side that night one
year ago. Well he knew the eyes could
never look that way on him, nnd he never
could have brooked, little Roy though
he was, any other than a man’s
true piace in Ids wife's regard. So he went
his way. and Alice, thinking of him as
she couid not help but do, said, in her heart
“he has forgotten all the old days. Ah,
well, teinpoia mutantur.”
1 ho war was dying out in blood and
tears; oftener uowtheir soaring shouts of
triumph were heard the low-breathed
voice of despair, the weary, weary cry of
pain. The ranks of Stonewall Jackson’s
men had grown so thin, there were so ma
ny red scars and empty sleeves among tiie
stanch fellows left, and tho hardest battle
was to be fought on that last day at Appo
mattox. What wonder that eyes which
had never quailed amid all tiie thunderous
uproar and mad carnage of tho four years,
were drowned in bitter tears when Lee
gave them his last order, not “Forward-
on with tiie fight!” but “Lay down your
arms; disband and away!” Littio Roy
had vowed ho would never surrender, and
tie did not, save to the great God of J tat
tles. The last man seen to fall, in the last
day’s stiife, was a crippled member of the
old Stonewall brigade. And when aching
hearts and streaming eyes, all over the
stricken South, were welcondug hack in
tears and smiles, all sad alike, tho war
worn “boys in tattered gray,’ Alice St.
John watched and waited for one that came
not. It was only one of McLeod’s old com
rades that came to her. He brought Roy’s
trusty musket and laid it at her feet, pla
ced in her hands two folded papers—one,
a few short lines on a soiled and torn scrap
ot brown paper: “Keep it for my sake.
Alice, and ask Stonewall Jackson’s men ir
it has done your fighting ill or well. This
time tis good-bye forever.” The other was
a legal document and made Mrs. Alice St.
John heiress to all the possessions ol Le
roy McLeod. The lawyers told tier it
meant something like $100,000. One hun
dred thousand, but poor Alice, indeed!
Her dreams had come to naught. There
.seemed but ono true fact in her whole ex
istence; that was Boy—so faithful and
fond. She knew now he was of the stuff
of which heroes are made; but It had ta
ken many and terrible things to convince
her.
