Ms jAUkn KKEKAN. Besides the limpid brook we played. In childhood's happy. happy hours, Or through the dells and valleys strayed. And gathered bright and beauteous flow era; But ne'er grew flower in the dell, That to my fancy seemed so fair. As she my young heart loved so well, Sweet Kathleen with the golden hair. Beneath the groen and spreading oak, That by the little streamlet grew, One eve opr vowsof love we spoke, And, parting, promised to be true; For 1 must sail o er ocean wide. A sailor’s stormy life to dare. To win a guerdon for my bride, Sweet Kathleen with the gotten hair. i sailed afar o'er many sera, In quiet calm and furious storm. But still her voice spoke in the breeze, My dreaming eyes beheld her form; At length returned to meet my love, My gathered wealth with her share, But the willows droop and grieve above. Izjat Kathleen with the golden hair. I sit again ’neath the old oak’s shade, And the moonlight falls on the limpid brook, a As,it shone on the eve when our vows we made, “ And a parting kiss from her lips I took, For her light footstep I list once more. But she ne’er again will meet me there; She waits, I hope, by the heavenly shore, Loved Kathleen with the golden liair. MARRIED*ON~-TRUST. “ What a thing ft is to be poof! lleigho! Lord blest) me! Well, well, I suppose I may as well give up first as last” Mr. O’Jlegan was sitting in the attic of Mrs. Ross’ third rate boarding house. Mr. O’Regan was certainly enjoying a tit of the blues, and no wonder, with no money in his pocket, his week’s board unpaid, his clothes neediug to be washed, while the wash erwoman, with arms akimbo, had refused him only the day before, , “without the money furniiist her eyes,” and in love; the last crowned tjve entire lot of his difficulties. Poor O’Regan in love, and penni less ! Heigho! I have to sigh in con cert over that. O’Regan was twenty eight come next Christmas, and this was June. Mary Kelly was thirty two .conic Michaelmas; but what of that? Mary Kelly was the girl he loved. “ The darlint,” he said more than titty times that very afternoon, and kissed a square little piece of tin, or I should say a little square ambro type, without case or frame, that ho kept sacredly in his vest pocket, next to his heart. That was Mary Kelly’s likeness—a little, broad face, low fore head, and dumpy-figured woman, with hair pulled tight back behind her ears, and a wide, stiff collar around her soft neck. Now O’Regan fancied this little dumpy woman a model of perfection, and looked with contempt at those fairy, sylph-like forms that poets raved about. * Thank Heaven for different tastes, for if every one was alike in i hat matter, what would become of poor males and females who were not in the fashion ? For instance, if fat women were the taste, what would become of poor lean ones ? If bru nettes were the only kind sought for, Heaven help blondes! If every man would love nothing but a beautiful woman, Heaven help the homely ones. If ewn woman cared for naught but a hanusome man, Heaven help the many homely yet good ones there are in the world. ’ The beauty of Mary’s soul shone out of her eyes, and O’Re gan only saw tliis, and loved the beauty of the soul. And thank Heaven for that love, whoever gets it, for It’s the only tree and lasting one on earth f it outshines the setting hue of life when beauty must decay, and the form become withered and tottering. But tliis lieauty shines out all the clearer be cause like the sun in its setting, it can be seen by the naked eye, resting mid clouds of silver and gold, placid and beautiful at the close of day. So the beautiful soul, as it nears the home of its God, shines in tins pure placidity of heavenly .light, because the bright beams of the Holy City are already easting its halo around them. But this is a digression. I believe I left Mr. O’Regan bemoaning bis sad fate in the attic of Mr. Ross’ third rate boarding house. Yes; and Mary Kelly, over her wash tub, was chew - ing the cud of bitter reflection also.— Maty Kelly washed and ironed fine clothes, such as laces and muslins for ladies, and sometimes did a little sew ing besides, thereby eamingan honest penny for herself. At all events, it was all die could do. tvash, iron and sew, for Mary Kelly had nb education, ; and no particular bumps that marked Jier as possessing much talent or sharp ness for anything She was nothing but a quiet, honest, kind-hearted woman; nothing but a common earth enware vessel. " (And )"et somethnsfl the common earthenware arc of more service than the finest chins). And so Mary, in her lowly home, washed > ... ... and rubbed, rubbed and washed, etery now and than taking up the end of her apron to wipe away the tears that would come. Once two big ones rolled right into the tub, and Mary stopped for one moment, and sitting down in the ehair she indulged in u good cry. “O dear, what a tiling it is to be poor! Mtrsha me, but these hard times art the ruin of many a heart. Arrah, what a fool I am r’ thought Mary Kelly. “Thirty-one years old, crying me eyes out like a colleen of fifteen ! Tint ah, Johnny, dear, I do loye you. Never mind me age—never mind. There’s a woman’s heart Imre, and sure a woman can love till she steps into the grave. Ah! to me washin’ again; it’ll not be payin’ me rent, and puttin’ food in me mouth and me ould mother’s, this givin’ way to tears. Ahl musha mb! Johnny, ilarlint, if ye’d say the word to, ax me to have ye, I’d say yes, never fear, if ye hadn’t a cint in yer pocket to pay the minister that married us.” “Is that so, Mary, darlint ? Is di at so ? Musha! then let us go. Sureimy heart will be happier even if I haven’t a shirt tb my back, if I only I rave you. Sav, Mary, darlint, will you?” Poor Alary gave a loud scream of fright, for frotnbelfind the wood-houee door stopped the obj ect of her thoughts. For John O’Regan, with the hopes of driving away the blues, could not re sist the temptation to j ust come rouud the corner and peep at his darling, and by peeping in he heard tire loud soliloquy of Mary Kelly, and his heart was roused with ioy. I'nable longer to contain himself, no broke’ in on her I day dreams with the joyous exclama tions above. ' “Arrah! what was you listenin’ for ?” said Alary, trying to “Sure, it wasn’t right at alt John, to be doin’ tlie like o that.” “Ah, Mary, forgive me, darlint. Sure, 1 couldn’t help coinin’ to be near ye. Mary, darlint, lam poor, but it’s rich I’d be if you would marry me! Sure, I could goto work with a will. Indadc, I’d find work then. Maiy, darlint, put on your shawl and come wid we now.” ' r> ‘k)h, go along wid ye, Jdhn Aint ybWiamed?” “Come along, darlint, come.” Love hasgreatpower. At all events, Mary could not resist it, and they went off to the magistrate of that town. He was a kiml-hejgPted man, and they knowing it, laid tbe case before him, He g«qve them a little advice, and, knowing them to be honest people, marrieil them on trutt. And poor as they now wore, it was a happy eouple that sat down by the little table of Mary Kelly’s domicil to eat their fru gal sup]»er of bread and butter, suid two little mutton-chops that Mary liad scraped up money enough to get for a treat, and a little plum-cake that a neighbor had sent in, hearing of the grand wedding. Frugal, did I say? No; it was a sumptuous meal to them, and hob-nobbing tb one another over the table, they cracked many a joke at their own expense, and felt happier in their |M>verty than many a rich dame and gay lord in the grandest castle rearing its proiid nails above some little hovel. Ah! if we could only sometimes veep into lowly homes, and see tin* iright, hopeful hearts and merry faces that sit down to the humble fare, hardly earned, and hear the hopeful jest and the word of cheer, we, in our sumptuons homes, would not so often pity the ]»oor, particularly when we yawn with our hands in our laps, and wonder what is the matter, and what the reason is that makes us so tired and weary of everything and every body. It is often tho case that some of the rich have not enough to employ their minds ami their hands. This is another digression, however. Well Mr. and Mrs. O’Regan com menced life together, with hardly a penny in their pockets, but plenty of hope in their hearts. Mary Went with redoubled vigor at her ironing the next day. Johnny started off to hunt up some work, feeling as big as the biggest and as happy as the happiest; for didn’t Mary kiss him four or live times ns he started ? And didn't Mary bless him with a wife’s blessing, and love him with a wife’s love— that shone so plainly out of her eyes, that sparkled brighter than they ever had sparkled before ? Many a weary mile John O’Regan walked that day, but he vowed to himself that he would not look into Mary’s eyes until he had some good nows to tcH her. Two days ago he would have sat dow n in de spair ere half the journey he had ac complished to-day would have been completed—sat dow in despair, feel ing there was noticing to incite him on. But now he stepped on with renewed vigor; he knew determination was one groat need in gaining any desired end, and his courage had not firiled him yet- Six times had he been peremptorily refuted. Once more he tried, and was again refused: this time because' he was Irish, and Johuuy O’Regan knew it, and his Irish blood was up. “Do you mane,” ho cried, his proud head erect, “Do you inane,” because I am Irish, that I am not tit to work aside o’ve ? Och! man, there’s as good Irishmen as ever there was Eng lish, French, or American; and, m troth, as bad. But are ye no Chistian because they are l>ad? Is there no good ? Have ye no bad in yer ohh country? Ye are no good yourself, or ye would not hiirt the fechngs of it poor man, Irish he may be, but honest. May be the day will come whin ye will glaiily welcome the poor Irishman !" John O’Regan tnrned wway with a face sadder th«q,ever before. He took i fV’l W '.J , J ■ —r-— — .h,..* ■» - j .|r i, t , li ~<■ f t--. AUGUSTA, GA., SUNDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 22, 1868. 111 . y his littlc lunch, and sM down beneath r a spreading tree by the wayside, land t while he ate he read from the little J pipoo of paper that hml covered Ins l bread and butter this paragraph : n “Any poor man who is willing to . make a home for himself, would do well to ponder over thia: One hundred 1 milts from (J——, east of the Lake of » T-s—, are wild tracts of woodbind t only waiting the woodman’s avu to , make fair and fertile fanna. f who labor in bondage, would, it net he i better to labor for a home ? r then, and pick outfamufor yourselves. , AH that’s needed is an axe, a cup imd 9 some matches; you pay fur yotir f»rm 9 by your axe: you cut the timber down s and make it into cords of wood which, i in a few months, will pay for y tfur farm f at five shillings an aCre.” ‘ r , John could read no more, as the rest 3 was torn away, but he started home f with a new resolve in his heart. Mury - and he had a long talk that night. How it ended could be told in Mary’s red eyes two days after, as she stood with her arms round John’s neck bid ; ding him God speed to tho new land. ! So with his bundle on his back, and a few shillings in his pocket, he turned ' his steps to the path that lead a him ; died aules away, where he was going . to make a home for Mary mid her t mother. * -'f c Shall I tell of the long weary way . he trod, sleeping sometimes in barns and sometimes in tlie woods ? shall I tell how he arrived at last, with a feW , more on the same errand as himself, and how their courage was raised still higher at the prospect which lay be fore them ? It would be lengthening a tale already too long, and I cannot give but’a synopsisoftbeend. Suffieeit that John sueceedetl, and three months after, While he was cpgntihg up the proceeds of the wood he had sold, he found that he had enough and to spare to bring Alary and ber mother. AH that was needed was a little log cabin as a cage. “ John, O John, dear John !” Just then a hand was laid on his I shoulder. 3lary had come all that long distance ou foot; she had reached the bourne, and in her joy she knelt and tlianketlGod for leading her safely to her husband. “But, Mary, why did \<>ueome?'’ said John. “ Begmse, John, 1 couldn't live and be parted from you.” “But, Mary, darlint, the home isn’t ready yet.” “ Nivcr mind, John ; 1 can help you make it. See, lam strong ! Look at my arips 1 I can help. I can.” In three weeks they had a snug log cabin raised. In three montlis"after Mtiry^eiHwme^oWW tm>re his oxen, attached to a home-made wagon, to the place where he had married Mary on trust, and paid the man who had tied the joy-giving knot. Tn three years beautiful farms stretched over this once wild waste, now almost a village. Oh one corner, by the Lake, a grocery store and blacksmith shop flourished, and John O’Regan, his wife and two children walked ortt. many an evening, tbe father and mother looking proudly at their two little ones and their neat farm and house, and more proudly still at the little village of Regansville, which they truly felt they had founded. My tale is finished. It is composed of neither grandeur or sublimity,-.but the simple truths it contains arc gath ered from the by-ways of life, where industry, integrity and perseverance are ofttimes found, and which arc the fonndatioife of grander tales that may be haiulcd down hereafter from the now wilds of the far West.
