THEY ARE IN LOVE—BLESS THEM.
WHAT HR SATS.
Stars, let me hear you shout!
Why hang, ye leaves, so still ?
This night she faltered out
A rosy-lipped “I will.”
'Hie blood rushed through my brain—
She turned her face to me ;
Then kisses came like rain
Upon a parched lea.
Light streamed from pole to pole,
The air became perfume,
And nil my barren soul
Burst into green and bloom.
Oh, hour that bankrupts joy,
But perfects nature's plan—
This morn I was a boy,
But now I am a man.
Stars, let me hear you shout!
Oh, leaves, hang not so still!
Wind, call your music out!
My love has said, ‘‘l will!”
WItAT SHE SAYS.
My hope has then come true
He loves me, so lie said ;
How fast my pulses flew--
My cheek, it burned, how red !
Some things I seemed to bear,
And some I seemed to see ;
Was it through eye or car
He told his heart to me ?
So high lie seemed to stand,
My hope grew faint and dim ;
His loVe came like a hand,
And drew me up to him.
Within rdf ali is light—
How, why, I cannot say ;
For me, night is not night,
And day is more than day !
And thus my hope comes true—
Oh, hope, how faint and dim !
And so, what can X do
But love and live for him ?
MY AUNT’S CHOICE.
“I tel! you, Fanny Shawmnt, you
were made for each other.”
“And I tell you, Anut, I would
sooner die than marry him.”
“You are a fool, Fann*r. Yon are
as headstrong and self-willed as your
father was before you.”
“Please leave my relations entirely
out of the question. lam my own
mistress, twenty-one years old, and
free to refuse the Emperor, it I choose.
And I tell yotr, Aunt, once more, that
I will not stay here to meet Earle
Rochefort. So there.”
And Fanny Shawmut left the room,
and shut the door behind her in a
way which showed that she had a
temper.
Hildred Ames put her smelling
salts to her nose. Such contumacy
in Fanny she was sorelv tried with.
If she had dreamed that ever the girl
would have developed to such obsti
nacy, she would have declined to be
come her guardian, even to please her
dying brother.
Avery few words will explain how
matters stood. Earle Hochefort was
Aoung man of twenty-eight or tbir
iSyJfcnd a favorite with the good lady.
(ccording to her idea, there was no
[her man in the world worth naming
eside him. t •
HisYather had been Ilildred’s first
love, bqt treachery on the part o§
pwmetVdmrfi f other, it does not matter
wlifem, separated them, and he
had found another woman, and Ilil
dred had found another man.
But when Earle’s father died, an
explanation had taken place, and Mil
dred had promised to love the son for
the sake of the father. And, indeAl,
she found it not very difficult to lo|e
Earle for his own sake, for he was
gentle and affectionate, and won the
regard of all with whom he came in
contact.
He did not, marry, though a groat
many beautiful young girls would
gladly have accepted him; and so it
happened that at eight and twenty ho
was a bachelor still; and about that
time llildred r s brother John died in
Maderia, and left his daughter Fan
ny to her aunt's care.
Fanny, pretty, spoiled, an heiress in
her own right, and accustomed always
to troops of servants to order about,
did not readily fall into the groove
her aunt had prepared lof her.
She had made up her mind that
she would not love and marry Earle
Rochefort, of whom she had heard
so mucin
As yet she bad not seen Mr. Roche
fort. lie was absent in California,
where he owned some mines, and had
"been there Dearly half a year perfect
ing some arrangements for their im
proved working.
Bui he was expected home daily,
and Ilildred was continually agitating
the subject nearest her heart. She
had likewise written to Earle, over
and over again, glowing descriptions
of Fanny, and had dwelt largely upon
HAMILTON, HARRIS CO., GA„ WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 30, 1876,
her favorite plan of a union between
her two children, as she called Earle
and Fanny.
Young Rochefort, with all a man’s
aversion to having a wife picked out
for him, began also to fairly halo the
name of Fanny, and to feel very much
| averse to meeting the ptragon.
In fact, so strong did ibis feeling
became that ho decided not to go to
Elmwood, Hildred’s town, but to
spend the winter in D *, a placo
some hundred and forty miles distant,
lie could make “business” an excuse;
for, in addition to his other advant
ages, Rochefort was wealthy, and a
man of property is always supposed
to have plenty of business on hand.
So ho wrote to Mrs. Arnes to that ef
fect, promising to run down and see
her the very first opportunity.
Fanny, meanwhile, had packed a
few dresses, and as little finery as it
is possible for a young lady to exist
with, into a couple of trunks, and in
spite of llildred’s remonstrances, bad
departed to make a long visit to her
cousin Bentley’s folks in I) .
The very day of Fanny’s departure,
Mrs. Aines leceived Earle’s letter.
“Glorious!’’ she cried ; “things
couldn’t have happened more to my
liking. I’ll wnte to cousin Martha
this very day. and get her on my
side, and so, Miss Fanny, we shall see
you Mrs. Earle Rochefort yet, in spite
ot yourself. For I know lie will fall
in love with yon if lie meets you, and
I don’t believe you can help falling in
love with him.”
The letter to cousin Martha was
written and dispatched, and Hildred
felt willing to await the course of
events. She felt moderately sure that
all would be just as the wished it.
Fanny looked very pretty in her
dark blue traveling suit,.and her co
quettish round hat, with its white
feather, as she began her journey to
D .
More than one gentleman looked
wisi fully at the unoccupied seat lie
side her, but she spread out her skins
in a way that lady travelers have,
and put her muff on (ho cushions,
and none of them were bold enough
to asu her if the seat was engaged.
Presently a young man in a heavy
traveling cloak paused beside her,
and asked the question she had ex.*
pected somebody would be imperti
nent enough to ask.
She had a great mind to tell him
she preferred siitmc: alone, hut he
had taken up the muff and made him
self comfortable before she had quite
made up her mind to bo so impolite.
Then she looked a* him, and was ob
liged to confess to herself that she
had never seen a finer face. Its clear
blue eyes, and blonde hair and mous
tache just suited Fanny’s taste, for
hftir and eyes were black,
and her lips and cheeks glowing, and
of course she liked a blonde mau best
indeed, could she help it? And
sjbch a grave, sweet voice,
and he wAs* cartful nol to sit on her
I
They became lery social, and talk
ed of a great many things. They
vowed thatjtheylboth liked the same
authors, aifd.thi®ot itself is a won
derful bond of slnpathy.
By and wandered to reli
gion, andTben to pobtics, and on both
subjects their opinions agreed. Alter
that it was all plain sailing.
A furious snow storm set in, for it
was the nwffith gf January, and the
wind blew a*gale. Both onryoung
friends were so much occupied In get
ting acquainted that {mow
wore of no account whatever.
After awGaetif, began to bery
cold, and to make things morrMn
comfortable, the locomotivo flofc
dered through drifts in a uw
which showed passenger’s tilt
ere long snow would assert its
over steam. . V
Night was coming on, too, for the
days in January aro very short, and
the train was just entering upon a
twenty mile stretch, and there were
not half a dozen dwellings from one
end of this desolate waste to the
other. t
Fanny began to feM very nervous.
She wondered whatever she should
have done without this gentleman
had occupied the seat with her, and
who wrapped his traveling shawl
round her so carefully. She thought
that if only Mr. Earle Rochefort, of
whom Ilildred prated so much, had
been like this interesting stranger,
how easily she could have married
him, and made Hildred huppv.
The storm increased, the drifts be
.came more and more formidable, and
at last the engine gave a plunge for-
j ward, which shook everybody out of
their seats, and demoralized tilings
generally.
They were of the line, and no more
progress could be made. Fanny
cried and clung to the stranger, who
did not appear sorry that the acci
dent, had happened. He comforted
the young girl, nnd drew her down on
his slmnlder to finish her crying, and
took oil' her hat so it would not bo
crushed, and wound hor soft, while
"cloud’’over hor curls and braids in
such a delicate and skillful way.
"Ah, well !”
Fanny had lost her heart to'him
before the crash happened, and now
she was oomph j t'p'icclcd. After
all, it was :i veiq night.
Fanny dnsted a li‘lle, and her stranger
sat beside her and kept her wrapped
up. Tho other men swore over tho
vile situation they were in, and the
women fretted, but none of this dis
turbed Fanny Sbawmut.
In the morning aid came; troops of
men with shovels and baskets. But
everything delightful must have an
end, and in due time tlie train was
j>ut on the line and D— was reached.
The stranger put Fanny m a cub, and
went with her to cousin Bentley’s
and asked permission to call on Iter,
and so they parted.
lie had no} thought to ask her
name, neither bad she thought to ask
his. (
The next day Martha received Ilil
dred’s letter, and that evening when
Fanny’s stranger called,od Uy enough,
Martha herself opened tho door for
him and took his card. Then she
showed him into the parlor and fol
lowed him in, and shut the door be
hind her, and stayed there talking
with him for fully twenty minutes be
fore she called Fanny.
The stranger was introduced as Mr.
Fort, which Fanny thought a very
singular name.
But then, after all. "what’s in a
name.'”’
Of course they' had a very delight
ful evening, which was the beginning
of a series <rf delightful evenings.
Mr, Fort’s heart hel . out just a fort
night, and then he old his love in
words 100 glowing for the cold point
of our cynical pen to write, and the
two young people did a very desper
ate thing—they engaged themselves,
and set the wedding day just one
month ahead.
Fanny wrote her aunt a very
graphic account of (he w hole, aflair,
dwelling on Mr. Fort’s kindness and
devotion during the storm, and ended
with saying that her lover was so far
in advance of that odious Earle
Rochefort in all the virtues and graces
that’she was sure Aunt Hildred would
be delighted that her disobedient but
ever loving niece did not stay at home
and marry that bear.
When Aunt Hildred read flic letter
she laughed till the tears came and
dimmed her spectacles, and she hug
ged the cat and shook hands with
Betty, the cook, and then proved
herself a true woman and in her right
mind by overturning her wardrobe to
see if she had a dress suitable to wear
at the wedding.
Fanny came back to Elm wood just
a week previous to this important
event, and Mrs. Ames’ house was
turned upside down with the grand
preparations.
Fanny declared that she hoped that
abominable Rochefort wouldn’t put
in an appearance at the wedding, for
she knew she couldn’t he decently
polite to him, and thereat Hildred
would go off into such convulsions of
laughter that to look se
rious, for she was certainly afraid her
aunt’s brain was softening.
So many brains were softening
nowadays 1
The Wedding elress was splendid,
and Fanny looked like an angel in it.
Juht about five minutes before the
lime set for the performance of the
ceremony tho bridegroom was an
nounced. But what was Fanny’s
amazement to see Hildred rush up to
him, throw her arms around his neck,
and call him her “dear Earle,” and
tell him how glad she was to see him
back ! And then Hildred led him to
wards tho bride, and making a low
obeisance, went through with the
ceremony of ari introduction.
“Miss Fanny Shawmut, allow' me
to have the pleasure of presenting to
you Mr. Earle Rochefort, to whom
yon are about to be married.’’
Fanny’s black eyes blazed, and her
little red mouth unclosed to say some
thing spiteful, but Earle stopped it
with a kiss, which is always an ex
cellent way to stop a woman from
scolding.
The wedding came just as though
nothing had happened, though every
bod’} remarked that. Fanny had a very
high color for a bride. Brides should
always be pale, you know.
It, proved a very happy union,
though Fanny is want to doo'ftro to
Hildred that she never would have
m-'rried that Earle Rochefort, if it had
not been that silo could not bear the
thought of not wearing that “lovely
dress.’*

our newspaper capacity to some more
active and enterprising locality, to

years’ service, with gray hairs and

fact, but our last weeks board bill is

Those who suppose it will ho an

read the following from the Idaho
Statesman
Bather Mesrilie, who is well posted
on the Indian trines, gives the follow
ing estimate of their numbers: He
puts the Sioux down at 00,000; the
Crows at 15,000; Black feel, 20,000;
TJtes or I/talis, 05,000, and m addi
tion there are the Brule, Ogalalla,
Minnee.onjou, Yanotonnais, Uncpapa,
Two Kettles, San Acres and Sontoo
hands. Some of the Crows and some
others who live around the reserva
tion are friendly, but many who pre
tend friendship will gather arms and
ammunition for their tribes. lie
says they are in strong alliance with
each other to carry on this war, al
though when they have no common
enemy to fight they tight each other;
hut now they are united against what
they consider a common enemy, and
will turn out all their warriors, and
they will number at least 50,000, and
the Father says it is likely Wbe the
most formidable and bloody Indian
war in the history of our govern
ment. They are well armed, and will
fight to the death whenever they are
cornered.
The Thomaston JLrald has this;
“Last Wednesday, n Mr. Elijah
Tnco was engaged in bolting tip tim-*
her lor the purposo of living some
boards, lie was greatly astonished to
find a live load frog in the tree,
which was'perfectly sound, with the
exception of a small place whero the
frog dwelt. The tree, he says, seems
to have been cut into several years
ago for some purpose, hut tho place
had entirely grown over so that one
could not tell it ty noticing the tree
externally. The supposition is the
frog by some means got in the tree
when first cut and remained there.
The frog, when last seen, was living
and jumping around as sprightly as
anybody’s toad frog.’’

Gad Hamilton tells a good story;
“I know two girls born to wealth.
In their early youth they were rich,
careless, free. They walked and
drove, t.nd hunted, nnd boated, and
drank deep draughts of happiness and
health. Presently troubles came.
The stalwart father became a helpless
and confirmed invaiid. Did sft,
down and wring their hands? Did
they go moaning all their days, beg

Not they. They begrt.il 1 ill a’ smnlf
way in a country town to keep a dry
goods' and grocery store. They gave
fair measure and right change. They
kept what the people wanted; and if
anything was called' for which they
had not, they put it down in the list
of their purchases. They hhd tho
