News and Herald. SaVANXAH,- .VONDAY, may 28, 1806. A NOBLE PURPOSE An Old Man’s Idol. By the waters of Life we sat together, "Used au.l bandit! the golden days Of th.' beautiful early summer weather, , When skies were purple and breath When the heart keeps tune to the carol . ran And the birds keep ;une to the.songs . Through shimmer oi flowers ou gras , Aud trees with voices Jsolian. By the rivers of Life we walk together, I and my darling unafraid. And lighter than any kunet s j. The hnrdeus of Being on us weigueu, An^Lo b ve-s e sweet miracles o^erus threw Mantles of joy outlasting time. And uu from the rosy morrows grew A sound that seemed like a marriage chime. In the gardens of Life wc strayed together And the luscious apples were ripe alia i eu, And the languid lilac and honeyed heather Swooued with the tragrauce which they And und r ihe trees the angels walked, And up ill the air a sense of wing Awed us tenderly while we talked Softly as sacred commuaiug- • In the meadows kke w« ^ a J« elber ’ Watching the waving harvest gro, ^olirheart^ike^hc lambs skipped to and fro; And the cows ps hearing our low replies, Bro.dcredlkirer the emerald banks, * “a ,o.„i tears shown in the-daisies’ eyes, Aud the timid violets glistened thanks. Who was wiih us, aud what wa3 round ns, Neither myself nor my darliug guessed; Only we knew that something crowned us Out from the heavens with crowns of rest; Only we knew that something bright Lingered lovingly where we stood, Clothed with the incandescent light Of something Uigker than humanhooa. Oh! the riches Love doth inherit, Ah! the alchemy which doth change Dross oi body aud dregs of spirit Iuto sanctities rare and strange. Mv flesh is feeble and dry and old, My darling’s beautiful hair is gray; But out elixir and precious gold Laugh at the footsteps oCdecay. Harms of the world have come unto us, Cups of sorrow we yet shall drain; But we have a secret which doth show us Wonderful rainbows in the rain. And we hejtr the tread of the years move by, And the sun is setting behind the hills; But my darling does not fear to die, And I am happy iu'What God wills. So we sit by our household Area together, Dreaming the dreams of long ago; Then it was balmy, sunny weather, And now the valleys are laid in snow; Icicles hang from the slippery caves. The wind blows cold—’tis growing late; We.l, well, we have garnered all our sheaves, I aud my dariiug, and we wait.

A Serious Disturbance at Quincy—The Mar shal Shot.—Tallahassa, Fla., Mav 22.—On yester day we learned from a gentleman just from Quincy that on Friday night some six or more armed negroes fired upon Mr. Jesse Dickson aud several other gen tlemen, instantly killing the former, and wounding several other persons that were in the street at the time. The negroes were tired at, but it is believed without doing them injury. The cause of the dis turbance was the attempted arrest of a negro of rather desperate character who had escaped from jail a month previously. Mr. Dickson, the Marshal of Quincy and Deputy Sheriff of Gadsden county, suddenly meeting with him, ordered him to halt, which he did not heed, but ran off, when Mr. D. fired several shots with a re volver at him, none of which took effect, and he es caped. This was on Saturday night. Sunday night, alter the services at the church were over, a party of six or more negroes, who it seems had been in search of Mr Dickson, and were heard by several citizens threatening his life if they found him, met him in the street, when the firing took place as above stated. Mr. 1). was shot in the forehead, the ball comihg out of the temple. Two other citizens—Mr. Frank Smith and Mr. Grubb—were wounded more or less seriously by the fire o*f the miscreants. The disturbance caused intense excitement, and a large number of citizens turned out and stood guard the whole night. We learn that two of the parties engaged in this murderous attack have been arrested, but the person who fired the fatal shot is not one of them. -r. Dickson is represented as a gentleman who was tsnected and beloved by ail’who knew inss is deeply deplored by the whole e earnestly hope that tills outrage and diabolical :d*u - is not the iorcrunnor of such scenes as wvre him, aud Gf that \\ e ear murder is not the iorcruhnor of smfii scones as were lateiy enacted in Memphis. cilice iiieuhove was put in type the Governor has nSsueu a, proclamation offering a reward for the appre- L 11,ion oitwo of the murderers—Gabe Zornler and Walton Harris. Trial oi Mr. Da vis.—Attorney General Speed, who returned *iom the West last week, had a lengthy in terview with the President on Friday last, relative to the trial ;>i Jeff. Davis and the indictment found by the Grand Jury at Norfolk. Mr. Speed gave his opinion as to ihe legal character of the indictment, which opinion I am not authorized to state. The 1 President imparted to the Attorney General the sub* bianco oi the views oi Cliiet Justice Chase about the propriety of holding court in Richmond. The posi-f non of Judge Chase I have gfrven you in a former despatch. Ilia* fears were that • there was doubt among.the military officers in Virginia as to the effect of the peace proclamation, and whether or not martial law is abrogated, While these doubts exist Judge C^aSe. rs not willing to preside in a'United States court in Virginia. If the Chief Justice shall hesitate, or entertain such f6ars when the next lerm of the United States Circuit Court is about to convene, the President will issue an order expressly declaring that the civil law is supreme in all matters in which the civil courts have jurisdiction. It.is reported that the Attorney-General has no confidence tn the indictment found against Davis under the supervision of Judge Una Livy-9.od, if i* proper to state that the report does not come from the best authority. *** and A Glorious Result H.

Numerous rem edies were recommended by friends and some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofiland's German Bitters were recommended by persons who had tried them, and whose favorable mention of tha Bitters lu- iuued me also to try theta.
