V rail of a man that women in lie proud oc’ attracting, none the Ires bemuse lie eares very little, I should say, lor wo* men in general.” “Really, MiUy, vnn seem to have studied Mr. {Sutherland very elo«elv. considering this may he your first ac quamtaiiee with him.” She laughed, blushed and threw back her beautiful go tiled hair. “.No, I don't know as I have ; he devoted himself to no* a good deal this evening, and I couldn't help forming my opinion, you know. There is to be h cioquel party to-morrow at the ilollies, and Mr. {Sutherland made me promise to eotne up and bring you, if you would route ; but 1 told linn be forehand that 1 knew you would not, knowing your dislike to that delectable means lor the promotion ol flirting.” And alter this it happened that MiUy either went or was sent lor nearly every day up to the Hollies—where, indeed, she was very much in the habit ol going; while 1, who had long ceased to caie lor anv companionship beside mv sister’s, sat at home, longing with ;. lect-rish longing to see Mark {Suther land once more, and yet (heading with n sickening dread to meet the careless, estranged glance of the dark eyes that had looked once into mine, full ol love. It seemed that Mark not unfrequently accompanied Millv part of the way home; but lie never came near enough to our cottage for rue to catch even the most distant glance ol him, and my lit tle sister hail some how ceased to talk ol him alter the first. So, although I mil knew he staid at the Hollies, he might almost as well have been across the wide ocean as (ar as 1 was con cerned. And yet —oh, no! the sense of his presence seemed to he home to me upon every r breath of the swee* summer air that floated into my room. 1 could not sleep at night, nor rest calmly bv day: and often, while Millv sat with her friends, l used to wander out, scarce heeding wlieie I went, im patient only ol rest. One day, when this terrible y earning was strong upon me, I took my sketch ing materials, from force of habit, and set out to walk to a pretty woiril at some distance. The cool, green fra grance of the leafv shadows was grate" iu 1 alter the glaring sunshine, and I sat down to rest where they felt coolest. But a sudden sound of laughter and merry voices, dose at hand, startled me, and not willing to see who the speakers were, I got up and flnl swiftly down the darkest and most tangled ol the paths that branched away into the heart of the wood. 1 soon left the inerrv voices far behind me. and, slack ening nty walk, 1 wandered on, dreamy and ibsorhed as ever, till, suddenly Miming into anothar path, 1 saw what caused me to stand still and forget everything but what my eyes looked upon. Mark Sutherland ! Yes, Mark; older, darker, thinner, but Mark him sell. Ah, how the green marshes, and the widening sea-wal!, and the lark singing far up in the sky, all floated before mv eyes, as 1 saw the downward bend cf his stately head to look into the face beside him—the face that looked up into his, with those candid blue eyes, amt a smile upon the soft parted lips. The smile seemed to re flect itself upon Mark’s grave face for an instant, and then he look up a little hand lying on his arm, and kissed it tenderly. 1 looked no longer; I crept away ; stricken with a dumb anguish, a dreadful, sullen despair, 1 crept away and went home. For 1 knew the candid blue eyes, the sweet smile, and the floating golden hair; they were mv sister Millv’s. Oh, hud I not done enough ! Had I not sacrificed enough ? Was my cup not so lull but that this hitter drop must be added to its overflow ? So 1 cried in my anguish ; and it was long before better thoughts came to me, or that, coining, 1 could hold them firmly and take comfort. But by and by 1 rose from where I had flung my self down, and sat by the window to watch for Millv. {She came along presently in the quiet evening light, and I looked at her with my eyes treslily opened. 1 had never yet ceas ed to think ot her as a child ; l realized in one moment now, that child was a woman. 1 looked at the beautiful, iresh young lace, and involuntarily i glanced at the reflection ol my own in j the mirror opposite. I never could ■ have been iu mv best days what Milly : was; and now—l turned awav with a sigh from the image id the faded women, with pale lips and weary dark eyes. Miilv came in the next instant, throw »ff her hat, and, coming up beside me, took my face between her two spit hands, looked into it tenderly for a minute, then kissed me, and sat down u n!i her arm around me. “But, my dear, l have something to tell,” she began, with a strange tremble in her voice, though she was smiling too ; “a wonderful thing.” “Don’t you think 1 could ever guess it Milly dear?” 1 asked, pressing the 1 ut*e one to my throbbing breast. “\ou never could; and yet how your heart is beating !” she said, look ing up at me timidly ; “l believe you really do.” Then, sinking her face down to my shoulder once more, she added, almost in a whisper, “Hester, he told me to ask you whether you would see him to-moirow.” “He, means Mr. Sutherland, of course!” * Ol course, Hester; do you mean to say yes?” asked Mdly, stealing anoth er ol these timid glances at me. “Mv ‘yes’ will go with yours, Millv, dear.” • Ci»dble«s you, Hester l mv darling, im dear, clear sister.” cried Milly, lirveinh ; and for a long "bile we . were both silent. jNur, indeed, did she 'mention .Mr. Sutherland’s name again-; ! nor recur in any way to the subject, (ill about the middle of the next day, she suddenly sprung up from her place by the window, and glancing at n.e with a vivid blush and smile ran out of the room, and 1 heard her fly upstairs. Then I knew who was corning, and I 1 sat still, because to move was entirely out ol my power. fSo, when he en tered the room, 1 sat and thought, I ! field out my hand and tried to utter a ! greeting. 1 know that mv lips only hiiirinured inarticulately. He looked I at me as he held my hand ill a momen tary grasp, and I thought there was both pain and a shock ol surprise in his lace. Then lie began : ! “I have not come unexpectedly, I hope ? Milly promised to ask you—to tell you”— “She did tell me; I expect you ? ” I strove to say ; and I hope 1 said it qui j etly. • Did vnu guess why I wanted to see you ?” lie asked, with that directness of speech I remembered so well. “Yes. 1 even went so far as that.” I answered, and smiled —oil ! what a win try smile, if it did not belie my heart. j “Os course 1 could only have one purpose iu asking to see you again he went on quietly ; “but all! Hester, what will you sr.y to me this time?” “What does Milly say?” “Mdly ! always Millv still ! hut Hes ter it is for you to answer rue first,” he said, and abruptly walking from his ; position or the hearth he Came and sat ■ down beside tne. “Hester—l must call you so—did your sister tell you what I said to her ■ y t sterday ?” “She let me infer it.” “Infer ! Fiddledee ! Nothing like i plain speaking to express meaning,” he spoke out rather impetuously. “But you are so cold, so unlike your old self, Hester, that l could not take it for an answer to what L came to ask. Did Milly tell you that yesterday—for I have grown to love that little girl dearly—Hester! Hester! What have I said ? What is the matter?” I hated, despised myself for the weakness, but the mortal struggle of yesterday was not done yet. 1 could not hear this man, whom I It ad loved so long, so deeply, avow to my face, his transferred affections to mv sister, and be unmoved. Involuntarily 1 i grasped the arm of my chair for sup- ! port, for my life seemed lading from me in the struggle. He bent over me, lie lilted my faint head on his broad breast, but I shrank from him feebly. “It is nothing. lam often faint. I am quite well again. You were say ing —yes, go on, Mr. Suth?rlaud.” “I was saying—ah, Hester—l think I need no! go on —you are so changed, dear,” he said, looking down at me whh sorrowful perplexity. “Well, well, Milly led me on to hope; but I ought to have known better. You never cared for me iu the beginning as 1 did tor you.” “Su-ely, surely, that bygone ought to he a bygone, now,” 1 cried bitterly. “ff you say that, it ought, indeed,” he answered, filming from me ; “but 1 told you then, Hester, that I should not forget y'ou, and from something Mills 7 said, and your remaining unmarried, I was wild enough to dream—to hope—” Something—a light that dazzled my poor eyes —was breaking in upon me as he spoke. “Mark !” said I, “what did you come here to-day to ask me?” “The same question that 1 asked eight years ago by the stream in the j marshes, Hester. 1 have done with | India; I am no longer a poor man. and I j want the one woman whom 1 have al ways loved. Hester is this true? Is she mine at last?” For a long time, I think, after this, we forgot the existence of any one be sides ourselves. Then I told Mark the little game of crosspurposes we had been placing. His incredulous wonder that I could imagine he had ever thought of any one but me, touched me to the heart. “Poor Millv !” he said ; “so you would have put her off with the rever sion of a heart. No, when she marries, may she be what you are, Hester —her husband’s first and last love.” How to Make Butter. —Everybody likes good butter, and very few know how to put it up so as to keep it fresh and sweet. For the benefit of those who desire information oil the subject, we publish the annexed recipe, from the Petersburg Index, recommend them to try it: Take 2 quarts of good salt, 1 ounce of sugar, 1 ounce of saltpetre. Use 1 ounce of the composition for 1 pound of butter. It should he stamped and left to cool before putting in jars. Butter prepared in this wiv should not be u sed for two or thee weeks. You will find that your butter will be very fine, as it will have no brittle or salty look or taste. By following this course your butter will keep the year through, in warm as well as cold weather.

Pope’s speech made at a recent banquet given him by the people of Atlanta, in answer to a toast read to his honor bv one of the guests, we take from the Daily Opin ion, will be read with interest by our readers, inasmuch as it foreshadows, to some extent at 'east, his future pol icy lowaius the States over which he has been assigned as military Guverh nor. We think we have cause to con gratulate ourselves upon the appoint ment of so conservative a gentleman to that responsible post, as Gen. Pope. His Headquarters, iu future will be in Atlanta. “Mr. President and Gentekmex— I thank you very much for the cordial welcome you have gUen me, and for the kind and-altogether Catholic toast which has just been read. 1 confess that when I came to this State, on a duty as distasteful and em barrassing to me as it could possibly 7 have been disagreeable to you, I expected, to have been received with indifference, at least, if not, indeed, with positive dislike. The kind and friendly welcome, and tho assurances of hearty co-operation in tha discharge of the duly imposed upon me, which I have received at your hands, have been as unexpected as they are grateful, and encourage the hope that my mission among you will be belli brief and sat isfactory. 1 am sure it is not necessary to tell most, if, indeed, any of those here present, that the legislation of Con gress, which I have been sent here to execute, was conceived in no spirit of hostility or bitterness to the Southern people, but as the speediest and most satisfactory means of restoring the Southern States to the Union. It is based upon the theory that the political issues which brought about the late war are dead, and should be buried as soon and as deep as possible. Any policy of inaction, at this day, based upon the recollection or revival of these issues, can only lead to the de struction of those in whose interest it is inaugeraled. It is the destiny of our people to live together under one government, and the speediest and in st satisfactory means by which political equality can be restored, are provided for iu these acts of Congress. No method better, more lenient, or more conducive to the public good, is likely again to be proposed. It is easy to “go farther and fare worse,” but it is scarcely wisdom to abandon what we can have for that which, in the nature of things, must be beyond our reach. These measures are proposed by Con gress as a final settlement of our diffi culties. If accepted in the spirit, and with the sincerity which prompted them, our troubles will be at an end. If rejected by the vote of the people of these Southern States, an issue is left open which every day will make more ditfi cult to settle. It is with no common satisfaction, therefore, that I find in your assurance of hearty co-operation in executing these acts of Congress, good grounds for belief that the ques tions which have perplexed and an noyed us so long, are about to be solved. Ihe restoration ofthese South ern States to the Union cannot give the Southern people more satisfaction than it will give to the country generally ; and we may hope, then, to see a revival of that prosperity and progress which have marked our history from the beginning of our national life to the beginning of the late civil war. It is not unlikely that you expect from me some indication of the course I intend to pursue in the execution of mv office; but, whilst it would be manifestly improper for me, under the circumstances, to gratify your wishes, it is much to be doubted whether, with every inclination, it would be possible lor me to do so. The acts of Congress prescribe m v duties, and the means by which they are to be perlormed. but the manner in which these means arc to be used tic • pends so much upon circumstances which may arise from day to day, and conditions which are liable to constant change, that I could hardly be expect ed to lay down any rule of action new which might not be so far departed from, and eo frequently* that it would rathec mislead lban,guide you. It will be sufficient for me to say, generally*, line it is my purpose that the military forces tinder my command shall appear as little as possible in your civil affairs, and that I myself shall appear in them only so far as the law requires. Os course* upon the people themselves must depend how much or how little they see or feel the military authority which has been placed over them, I shall endeavor-=-and, I trust, with success—to discharge my duties a mongsl you with strict fidelity to the law, with fairness, and with duejregard to the rights of all. so that when we come to part we may take leave of each other, if not with concurrence of opin ion, at least with feelings of mutual kindness and respect. 1 beg that you will again accept my thanks for the kindly feeling you have manifested toward me, and my cordial good wishes for your welfare arid prosperity.” The Military Stay Law, The telegraph announced outlie 15th that General Sickles, commanding in the Second Military District, had issu ed an order Staying the collection of civil debts. The Charleston papers of tfie day following contain a copy of the order at length. It is said to give great satisfaction. We copy so much as is necessary to a general understanding of the letter and spirit of the order: I. Imprisonment for debt is prohib ited, unless the defendant in execution shall be convicted of a "fraudulent con cealment or disposition of his property, with intent to hinder, delay and prevent the creditor in the recovery of his debt or demand. And the proceedings now established in North and South Caroli na, respectively, for the trial and determination of such questions may be adopted. 11. Judgements or decrees, for the payment ol money, on causes of action arising between the 19th of December, 1850, and tiie 15th of May, 1805. shall not be enforced by execution against the property or the person of the de fendant. Proceedings in such causes of action, now pending, shall be stayed; and no suit or process shall be hereafter instituted, or commenced, for any such causes of action. 111. Sheriff’s, Coroners, and Consta bles, are hereby directed to suspend for twelve calendar months, the sale of all property, upon execution or process, on liabilities contracted prior to the l9th of December, 180.), unless upon the written consent of the defendants, except in cases where the plaintiff, or iu his absence, his agont or attorney, shall, upon oath, with corroborative testimony, allege and prove that the defendant is removing, or intends fraudulently to remove Ii is property beyond the territorial jurisdiction of the Court. The sale of real or persona! property by foreclosure of mortgage is likewise suspended for twelve calendar' months, except in cases where the payment of interest money, accuring since the lslh day of May, 1305, shall not have been made before the day of sale. IV. Judgments or decrees entered or enrolled, on causes of action arising subsequent to the 15th of May, 1805, may be enforced by execution against the property of the defendant; and in the application of the money arising under such executions regard shall he had to the priority of liens, unless in cases where the good faith of any lieu shall be drawn in question. In such case.? the usual mode of proceeding adopted in North and South Carolina, respectively, to determine that ques tion, shall be adopted. V. All proceedings for the recovery of money under contracts, whether under seal or by parole, the considera tion for which was the purchase ol negroes, are suspended. Judgments or decrees entered or enrolled for such cause of action, shall not be enforced. VI. All advances of moneys, subsist ence, implements and fertilizers,loaned, used, employed or required for the purpose of arding the agricultural pur suits of the peopld, shall be protected. And the existing laws- which have provided the most efficient remedies in such cases for the lender will be sup ported and enforced. Wages tor labor performed in the production of the crop shall be a lien on the crop, and pay ment of the amount due for such wages shall be enforced by the like remedies provided to secure advances of money and other means for the cultivation' of the soil. VII. In all sales of property under execution or by order of any court, there shall be reserved out of the property of any defendant, who has a family dependent upon his or her labor, a dwelling house and appurtenances and twenty acres of land for the use and occupation of the family ol the defend ant ; and necessary articles of furniture, apparel, subsistence, implements of trade, husbandry or otheremployments, of the value of five hundred dollars. The homestead exemption shall inure only to the benefit of families —that is to say; to parent or parents and child. or children. In other rases, the ex emption shall extend only to clothing, 1 implement? of trade or other employ* I ment usually followed hy the defendant, of the value of one htindteri dollars. The exemption hereby made shall dot be waived or defeated by the act of the defendant. The exempted property of i the defendant shall be ascertained by | the Sheriff, or other officer errtureing the execution, who shall specifically describe the same and make a report thereof in each case to the court. Address of Governor Jcnlilus. Washington City, I). G\ j April 10, 1867., ) To the People of Georgia: During the late civil war you were distinctly informed, by legislature re* solves, and by Executive proclatna* lions, emanating from the United States Government, that it was waged against you, not vindictively, not for the pur* pose of conquest, but solely lor the maintenance ot the Union. The theo ry announced was that, by her ordinance of secession, Georgia had not placed herself, nor could in any way place herself, without its pale, but that at whatever Cost rtf blood and treasure, the resistance of her people to the authority of the United Slates must be suppressed. With these ideas in your minds (ac tuated by what considerations it matters not), in April, 1865, you, in good faith, ceased that resistance, laid down your arms, and made full submission.— From these premises it is undeniable that you had a right to except, as it is notoriously true you did expect, spee dy restoration to the position in the Union from which you had essayed to withdraw —your status unchanged, save in the abolition of slaver}', to which, with amazing equanimity, you assented, by word and by act. To this work of restoration, the President of the United States, in the recess o( the Congress, faithful to the theory promulged as above stated, ad dressed himself, with much of circum stantial detail ar.d elaborate machinery, but in a spirit ofunaflected kindness. His prescribed prog .-amine you strict- Iv pursued—all that was antagonistic to the United Stales Government you expunged from your records ; all that was required to put von again in proper relation with that Government, you did. When next the Congress assem* bled, your State Government (which had been temporarily suspended ) was in full operation—Senators and Repre sentatives, regularly elected and duly commissioned, presented themselves in the halls ot Congress and w;re refused admission. Yet the postal, revenue and judicial systems of the Federal Government were extended over Geor gia as over Massachusetts and Ohio. Direct taxes assessed against the several States of the Union, by acts previously passed, Mere collected from you. An amendment of the Federal Constitu tion, proposed by the Congress in the prescribed forms, was presented to your Legislature for ratification or rejection, as to those of New York and Pennsylvania. This you ratified, and your ratification was accepted. Your State Government moved uniiuertupt edly in its proper sphere its Legislative and Executive Departments holding communication with departments of tlie Federal Government, as in the palmy, peaceful days of the Republic. Thus one long session of the Congress transpired, causing no new regret, save ybur continued exclusion from the National Counsels. This you bore — if not u ncomplainingly. at least sub missively—patiently awaiting the pre valence of counsels more liberal, more just. Out during the first session of the Thirty-ninth Congress another amendment was proposed to the Con stitution, and presented to your Legis lature for consideration ai:d ratification or rejection. This was considered in the interval between the first and sec ond sessions of Thirty-ninth Congrcs , and, in terms entirely respectful but quite distinct, rejected. Other States (now and always participant in Fed eral legislation, whose status, as mem bers of the Union, has never been questioned) likewise rejected it and are unmoleetcdt Against Georgia and oth er Slates similarly situated, the rejec* lion seems to have stimulated the ire of the National Legislators. After having treated Georgia as a State, so far as coincided with their convenience or their interest—after having tolehited her Government, reconstructed under Federal Executive auspices, during a period of eighteen m nitlis, the Thirty* ninth Congress, just at its close, enacted a law providing for the recoil* slruction of your State Government, in accordance with their will and pleas* ure, irrespective of your own; and, ad interim, for your military government. The Fortieth Congress, taking up the foie, immediately upon the exniration of its predecessor, has enacted a law supplementary to the former, placing the whole machinery of roconstiuctioti in the hands of the Military Governor previously provided for. Construing the two acts together, that official is clothed with dictatorial powers over you, ami sustained bv as many bayo nets as may be necessiry to the end in view. The}' prescribe, as indispensa ble provisions in your contemplated Constitution, several articles which the enacting power well knows you disap prove, and some of which, as applicable to themselves, other States now in lull fruition of the Union disapprove, and have recently rejected. Lastly, tin sj enactments for the purposes of this forced reconstruction, extend the eiec* tivi franchise to a large ciass of persons oil whom you have never bestowed it, and to whom you, as weJl as other States now repiesented m Congress, by the rejection of the last proposed Constitutional Amendment, have re* fused to extend it. 1 These acts of Congress have been vetoed by the Presidei, bdt have beeh passed ov«r his veto hr two-thirds of each branch of the Congress. , 1 shall not swell this address hy a thorough analysis of these acts. They are fearfully familiar to you. But I ; hesitate not to say to you, that they , are palpably unconstitutional and griev ously oppressive. | Such, fellow-citizens, is your present Condition, and the official relation I bear to you, demands that I speak to you of it. The ail“absort)i«gquestion is, what I shall Georgia do? I The public discussions seem to re cognize only two alternatives, Ist, j prompt acquiescence in the already rejected proposal for amendment of the Federal Constitution, and in all the requirements of the two acts of Con ' gress before mentioned, together with I the incorporation of them all, by our ! own acts, into our own constitution and laws. 2iully, a firm but tempofite | refusal of such acquiescence and adop | lion ; and a patient, manlv imlumice of military government, Until, in the afflux of time, and on the subsidence olllie passions generated by civil war, better counsels shall prevail at the Federal j capital—we, inean'ime. strictly observ ing law and order, and vigorously i addressing ourselves to industrial pur suits. As between these alternatives, I have no hesitation in advising the adoption of the latter, but forbear at this time to assign any reasons for this advice, be cause fellow-citizens, I am far from believing that these are the only altern atives. 1 have strong faith that there remains to us an available remedy. In the Federal Government there are three dapartments. Two of them have pass ed upon these measures, and are in direct antagonism regarding their con stitutionality. But in that event, the Cons'ituliou gives ti the Legislative Department power to overrule the Executive, and they have so done. There still remains, however, the Ju dicial Department—the greatconserva tor of the supremacy of the Constitution whose decrees, unlike the Executive veto, cannot be overridden by the Congress. That Department has not yet spoken. Should it be found in accord with the Executive, this usurpation will be arrested. Then, although, foi a time, you may be denied representation in Congress, your State government will remain intact, and lull restoration will not long be delay ed. Watching at home the progress of these measures, I ga v e, as was my duty to you, earnest consideration to the question whether or not we had any remedy against them. I reached the conclusion that a case could he made, giving jurisdiction to the Su preme Court, wherein the validity of these acts could be properly tested, and whereby, ii found invalid, they could bo arrested. Unwilling to trust, my own judgment or that of any Southern jurist, so liable to be swayed by Hie Idas of Southern interest and Southern feeling.'immediately upon the passage of the first act, I came here for the sole purpose of submitting mv views to, and consulting with, jurists able and pure, who would view the whole subject from a different stand-point. I have done so, and, by stieh men, my pro 1 * posed course lias been approved. — Before von read this the cause of Geor gia will be in that august tribunal* hitherto true to the Constitution—the bulwark of our Liberties. The great question of relief from that quarter will he speedily determined. Need I ask you lo be calm and quiet, committing yourselves hastily to no particular course of action? Should we fail (as fail we may), there will remain nothing that I can do for you. Your destiny will be in your own hands, and you must choose between the alternatives first presented. In making that choice, you have my counsel perhaps errone ous, but certainly honest. Charles J. Jenklns. New Advertisements; “OUR MOTTO ’ LIVE, **» LET LIVE!!
