that her own mad folly had estranged

man, ealmiy. “ As I have decided to “ My little Nanny, hush ! Not
ask them to remain permanently with
me, I cannot, of course, permit my
wife—
Nanny crimsoned angrily.
“ But I am not your wife yet, Mr.
Aubrey And I will not be your wife
if—”
“Nanny! For God’s sake stop!—
Think what you are saying!”
“ I mean it!” said Nanny, hotly.
“ I do not choose to marry into a nest
of relattons-in-law, and so you must
chose between your grandparents and
me'!”
“Nannie!”
She laughed a haughty constrained
laugh.
“ I am quite in earnest,” said she.
“ If you really care for me, you will
give up this unreasonable ^caprice of
yours.”
“ My little Nanny, hush !
word more!”
“ But I must speak, Donald! I
must tell you how earnestly I liave re

you will lake me back to your heart,
Donald, I will try to be a good wife
to you, and a dutiful daughter to yonr
grandparents.”
So little Nanny hauled down the
flag of rebellion and remained true to
her better nature, much to Miss Hero
Field’s scorn and contumely.
“You have made a great fool, of
yourself,” said that young lady, an
grily.
“ Donald thinks I am right,” per
sisted Nanny, “ and Donald’s good
opinion is of more consequence to me
than that of all the world beside 1”
“ Oh, it you’re as far gone as that,
I have nothing more to say,” jeered
Hero.
live Committee a meeting of the
Democracy of. Chatham county was
held last evening at St. Andrews’
Hall. The hall was well filled, though
the attendance was not as large as
was anticipated, but this was probably
owing to the very disagreeable and
inclement weather.
The meeting was called to order
by Col. R. E. Lester, Chairman, who
made a brief address concerning the
Approaching election, reviewed the
changes made by the new constitu
tion, and stated that members for the
Legislature would be voted for at the
same election upon tlie ratification or
non-ratification of the constitution,
and hence the necessity for making
nominations.
He then unnoticed the meeting
ready for business.
Mr. E. A. Silvo, Secretary pro ieni.
of the Executive Committee, acted as
Secretary of tlie meeting
Gen. A. R. Lawton arose and in a
few remarks explanatory of/the de
parture from the usual custom, which
was adopted out of regard for the
feelings of the Chairman, who, under
the circumstances, could not be ex
pected to make the appointment of a
committee, presented the following
resolutions:
Resolved, That this meeting ap
point six delegates and six alternates
to cast the vote of this county in the
convention to he held at Eden (No.
2 Central Railroad), on the 24'h in-
could not be entrusted to more
worthy hands, and we would hail
with gratification his return to the
position which ho lias filled with
such signal ability and honor:
Resolved, That we earnestly re
commend to the General Assembly
his re election, as a public testimonial
ot his fidelity, and of our appreciation
of his services.
O11 motion, the meeting, which
was one of the most harmonious that,
has ever taken place in Chatham
county, adjourned.
