TALBOTTON, TALBOT COUNTY, GEORGIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1878. For Her Sako Only a miner and his sweetheart. He in his eveiy-day fustain clothes, she in her simple calico gown, with but a knot of ribbon at her throat— he living nil the bright, sunshiny day where the brightest rays might never pierce, so deep is lie in tho bowels of the earth; she, the dangh ter of a miner like himself, for whom with her own hands she pre pared the noonday meal, or set his home in order for his coming; hilt, for all that, the story to which sho had been listening was none tho less sweet, and Tom Wilcox felt his heart beat as it had never throbbed in face of any danger,when lie looked down into Ray Bernard’s shy brown eyes, which, raised fi r one brief in stant to his face, flashed forth their cherished secret, then stooped and sealed it on their lips with Cupid’s seal. The moon laughed and tho stars twinkled- It was such an old, old story to them, but it was full of honest truth, even though the sim ple little brown cottage formed tho background, and the low breezes whispering through the trees were their own witnesses. What if they repeated the secret in every clime? No one could understand their lan - guage save the trees, and they were ever silent. But suddenly a cloud hid the pule moon from then - sight, and somehow it seemed reflected on tho girl’s faco ns with sudden courage she clasped her hands about her lover’s arm. j ‘Don’t go down into tho mine tos morrow, Tom,’ sho said. ‘I feel as if something were going to hap j pets’ ‘Why, little one, ho laughed, ‘such fancies as these don’t do for a miner’s wife. You forgot [growing serious] I havo a safeguard now which f have never lmd before—l he safeguard of your love, or rather its most precious knowledge. Don’t worry, lassie. We’ve work at the now hall to morrow and it would he ns much as my place is worth for mo to be missing.’ Rut tho ,oirl ehivevod even in the warm summer evening, and the hands clung more tightly to his arm. ‘I can’t help it, Tom,’ she nn swerod,‘l never felt so be'ore; but try ns I will I can’t shake off the feeling.’ ‘We will laugh over it together t t-rnorrow evening, when—’ and In stooped and whispered something very low in her ear—a something which brought the blood tiding once more to her very temples. ‘I can’t wait long you know,’ he said, aloud ‘Your father roust be looking out for another house keeper. Rav, my darling, life has just begun for me. God grant I may make you as hap py as you deserve 1’ And with his fond good night kiss ho left her. With folded arms, resting on the ■wicket gate, she watched the tall, stalwart form until it disappeared from sight, with as ranch pride in is manly grace and strength as if he were a king who had offered her his kingdom, and she a princess worthy of a royal dower. Then the last echo of his footsteps died away, and, with a. happy, tremulous sigh, she turned to enter the house; but by her very side a dark figure star ted up. The girl uttered a faint scream. Then the moon emerged j from her hiding place and disclosed j the man’s face. Strangely white it ,'Hiked, thought Ray, as sho Raid: ‘Why Jack! How you startled] me 1 Where did you come from ?’ I ‘l’ve not been f.;r away for tho past hour,’ was the surly reply. ‘Eavesdropping, eh 1’ asserted Rav, with sudden scorn. ‘I trust you wete repaid.’ ‘Not if the old adage be true as to listeners hearing no good of them selves. You’d no time to make mention of my name, you and your lover. What was it he whispered in your ear? Was it to name the day? Answer me !’ grasping her arm in his passion. ‘And by what right do you ques tion ?’ exclaimed tho girl,wrenching her arm from his touch. ‘The right of love 1 Have I not loved yon from your babyhood ? Were not tho first nuts, the first wild flowers, the first berries laid at your feet as boyish trophies of suer cess, your smile the highest reward? It was for these—for this I have loved yon all these years!’ ‘Jack, I am sorry’—and Ray’s voice grew soft; ‘but it is through no fault of mine. I thought yon loved me as a brother, and gave you a bister’a affection in return. Xinr will soon get over this disap pointment.’ 'Men don’t get over wounds that strike to the heart. It is only wo men who can do that, since no steel, however sharp, can penotrato their hearts. I don’t want your pity— givo it to the man to whom you have given your love. He may yet need it if ho evosses my path.’ ‘Jack, hush 1’ exclaimed the girl; ‘you do not mean those words. Havo I not veeu you step aside rather than tread upon a worm, to crush out a life God-given ?’ ‘Aye—but let the serpent rear its head across my way, and see how quickly I will grind its venomous head beneath my heel 1’ ‘Yes, Jack, but Tom Wilcox has never done you wrong.’ Tho man laughed. ‘He has entered my house and robbed mo of tho one thing my soul prized—has despoiled mo of my all! Down not punish those who steal from us ?‘ ‘Not if they etenl that which is their own. I know you, Jack. bet. ter than you know yourself, and know the noble heart which you cover to-night with so false a mask. Remember Jack—you say you love me. I love Tom Wilcox. Whate'er you do to him you do to mo. His is tho shrine which holds my hoart, eveD as hix is here.' striking her breast. Then, with a low good night, a swift touch of her baud,she left him to his own gloomy thoughts. * * * * * * Six men busy at work—a little group apart from the others—on the new hall in tho mine. It was a strange sound which suddenly made each man throw down his tool and start with white faces to their feet —the sound of a cherry whistle echoing through the silent, vault like place. ‘Hush, man ! are you mad,‘ said one, ‘to whistle in the mine ? Don't you know it has never yet failed to j bring swift punishment T ‘Nonsense, hoys, 1 laughed Tom, I tho c,ir..|,der. in answer. ‘That's uii old superstition, fit for crooning hags by the fireside. An houest whistle can do no man harm. Bis ten !‘ And or.ee again (he cheery sound rang out—this time tho whis- I tier's feet keeping time. “Ah, if you were happy ns I am, you'd nhistle too, since I‘ve won the pret iji st luss in all the village for my bride. On one listener's face theso words brought blackest frown; but he sternly kept his white lips together, and ..as mute none noticing the instant start, the half-clenched hand, but none had time to answer, for, as though far off, camo a dull, heavy sound they' knew too well. One moment they looked with blanched faces upon each other,then followi and a crash. The wall had fallen and hemmed them in their living tomb. In the darkness rose cries of vengeance and curses upon him who had bronght the curse home to them. ‘Let us find him,’ thoy cried, groping in the darkness—‘he who dared whistle the evil spirits to do their work !’ ‘But, singular to say, he, the in strument of their vengeance, was the one who lmd fallen helpless and dis abled, and lay half unconscious un der a heap of stones. Jack Howard was the first to find him. Why, then, did he not de nounce him ? Ouce more his hand clenched, his face darkened, but a girl’s white, pleading face seemed to rise up out of the darkness, and quietly ho took his stand in front of the prostrate form. ‘Wo will kill him!’ shouted the men. ‘Perhaps then we can appease the wrath of the spirits of tho mine, and they will show us some way out, or keep life in our bodies till they dig for us. Ah, here he is I’ starting forward as one stumbled over him for whom they sought. ‘Back, men 1’ Would you do mur •der ?’ shouted a voice. ‘Has not the old wall threatened danger for many a day, that you should suppose a man’s whistle could cause it to come tumbling about our ears?’ ‘He put the spirits to work !’ said one. ‘lt’s never failed yet. We’ll give him to thorn 0 one of them. tNot unless yqu give me, tool’ said Jack his face growing very white, and the words rushing from his lips as thougn’he could not re press thorn. ‘He can’t defend him self. It’s only a coward who will strike a helpless man.’ j The men paused, with a flush of thame, while their hands sank quiet- ly to tlioir sides, and Jack Howard know his defence had proved good. So the long, weary hours dragged themsilvcs along, each man busy with his own thoughts; some thinks iug ol the wife and bairns who wait ed thoii return; some, tho mother timi sweetheart. Occasionally would sound I dull, rumbling noise, draw ing nearer, and unless rescue soon reached them, all knew tho wall sur rounding them would soon give way’. They knew not whether it were day or night, or, save by the pangs of hunger and thirst already assailing them, how long they had been en tombed, when hope rose once more in their breasts, as, faint and distant came a human voice. With one ac cord they answered it, and grasping their tools with now earnestness, fell to work to meet, those digging their slow way toward them. Ah, the ec stacy of the moment when the first ray of light ponetratod their dark ness! ‘Mo dare dig no more 1’ shoutod a voic. ‘One by one yon must enter, crawling through this hole. There is room but for five on the shaft. How many of you are there ?’ Slcntly they conntod. Thoy woro six. ‘Jo need for lots,’ asserted one ‘W will leave the whistler. He is al nio A gone, anyway. Thoy can come b ick lor him if there’s time.’ So thoy decided, and one by one crailod through tho narrow space. Jack Howard came last. He cast oe look upon the silent, death-like place, tho silent, death-liko lorm, while Ray Bernard's words stood wrftten iu letters of fire in tho black ness: ‘Whate’er you do to him you do U me.’ Then lie turned back, and raised (fin prostrate form, and whispering |n his ear; ‘Tell her I kept sacred tlio shrine which held her heart, anil Aid it for her sake,’ ho dragged him as best he could to the aperture. ‘Lend a hand, boys 1’ lie shouted. ‘We’ll send Tom up first. He has a sweetheart waiting. I— havo no ooe.’ Tbero was no nmo ij j answering, ‘courage, Jack, we’ll soon he back for you !’ they obeyed him. So Jack went back to his doom. It was a glimpse of Edon to the men—who thought themselves shot oit from it forever—as once more thoy saw the green fields and the sunlight, while weeping women and ciildren clung, sobbing, to their kites. But they suddenly grow weak and tender as a giea l crash smote on their ears, and they knew that Jack Howard had expiated bis sacrifice with his life. Like a faint dream, tho words whispered in his ear camo to Tom Wilcox as Ra v nursed him back to health and strength, and wondoring ly ho repeated them to her. Then, os though unvailing some sacred thing, with sobbing breath she told him why Jack Howard had done this thing. How great, how true an act of heroism was his, even though no marble shaft nor sculptured urn re cord it. Woiilrs of \V l-utnni Duty cannot bo plain in two di verging paths. War seldom enters but where wealth allures. Time is a filo that wears and makes no noise. Be lively, but not light; solid, but not sad. Try to get good, and you are sure to got good. Keep good principles, and they will keep you. Love thy neighbor, but pull not down their hedge. The magic of the tongue is the most dangerous of all spells. People often affect to be out of humor to appear of consequence. Ho hath a good judgment who doth not rely entirely upon his own. Account him thy friend who de irsos thy good rather than thy good will. A bravo man is one who is not afraid to wear old olothcß until he can afford to buy new. Prizes would be for legs of slowest, pace, wero cripples made tho judges of the race. He who thinks he can do without others is mistaken; he whp thinks qthers cannot do without him is still mare mistaken, A little girl, when her father’s ta ble was honored with an esteemed guest, began talking vory earnestly at the first pause of tho conversation, j Her father checked her very sharply | saying: ‘Why is it that you talk so much ?’ ‘Tause I’ve dot something | to say,’ was the innocoul ronlv. Some Facts to Kenn-nilier About the Sun. The sun is 320,000 times as large as this earth. Tho sun is 400 times as far off ns the moon. A lady who weighs 100 pounds here would weigh 2,700 pounds if on the surface of the sun. Tho heat given off by the sun would melt 287,200,000 cubic miles of ice ovory second. The diameter of the earth bears the same relation to its distance from the sun ns tho breadth of a hair to 125 feet. A railroad car travelling without stops at the rate of forty miles an hour would get to tho sun in 203 years. The snn is believed to become some 250 feet smaller every year, this contraction would bo sufficient to generate the enormous quantity of heat which it radiates. Another theory is that comets and moteoric matter filling into tho sun may b i its ailment to offset the tre mendous loss which combustion cer tainly involves. it would require tiio combustion of thirty feet of coal over the entire surface of tho sun every second to generate the same heat. Tho stars are supposed to average larger than our sun and to have planetary systems like his. The nearest star is 250,000 times as far off as our sun. It takes light eight minutes to come from the sun, but it must have required 40,000 yours to coma from tho furtherest visible stars. When the eleven year storms on the snn occur, tho magnetic noodle on the earth is variable and some u times considerably detected. Tho earth is flying around the sun at tho rate of 1,000 miles a minute. The sun anil all the stars are mov ing through the space, accompanied by their planetary system, at a rate varying from 20 to 200 miles a sec ond. Some of tho sun-spots (craters) are 100,000 miles in diainter, and one ot them would easily swallow up the whole of the planets, Jupiter himself only maxing a unrauuiui. Maedler’s curious and brilliant speculation is that tho star Alcyone is the coutral sun of our universe, and that our sun and the visible stars are swinging around it, in or bits measured by millions of years.
