POETICAL.
A BEAUTIFUL POEM.
We do not know how far it lias.
Beneath what bending saphire skies.
Through what unmeasured deeps of space
May be thy mystic, heavenly place;
But to our lips these words arise :
‘‘We’re on our path to Paradise !”
Oh. land beyond our fading sight!
Oh, realm which ne’er has known the night
Oh, rest of heart and peace of soul!
Into our trembling lives doth roll
The thought of all that grand surprise
Awaiting us in Paradise :
The sorrow strain is growing less,
The spirit gathers hopefulness:
The hands unloose from idols dear.
The upturned eyes grow wide and clear,
And now at last the heart grows wise,
hiie yet it sighs for Paradise.
The glimpse of far off hopeless years.
With twilight gleaits of stars through teal's
liecalis a foregone life again,
With shock of tempest-doubt and pain,
Ah from this spirit level’s rise
We think “Not far from Paradise I”
Not far! Ah no! A prophecy
Floats on the air of what shall be!
The inscense, music, tint and gleam
Float o’er the walls blend in their dream.
Flood through the veins, brim up the
Till souls cry out, ‘‘Blest Paradise."’
And some time, when we earnestly guess
Shall rise the joy-fraught day to bless
Our life, with fuller, ncher peace,
Thau all our love’s or toil's increase,
Then, with a sudden, sweet surprise,
Well ope our eyes in Paradise.
The 3 .igget of bold.
BY B. H. SANDERSON - .
A graduate from one of the best of the
three or four really good scientific schools
of the ceuutry, Charley Weyland, at the
»ge of twenty-two took his way to the
far west. His course of thorough study
had ended in Ins graduation ns a mining
engineer, and now he had resolved to put

Caliiorma miners, after a time it lutd
be<m abate toned as unproductive ; hut
more modern appliances ami processes,
taking the place of the primitive “wash
ing” and surface digging, had again re
vived its former glory. But instead of
being surface Worked by scores of inde
pendent adventurers, a stock company
had secured all the privileges, and intro
dneed-the best appliances for rock-work
ing and tpiaitz working.
By this company Weyland was offered
a desirable situation as engineer, and he
at once accepted. Thoroughly conver
sant with the theory of mining, and
versed in the science of mineralogy, he
immediately mastered the work to the
satisfaction of himself and his employ
ers.
Sitting at the door of his cabin one
day, he was surprised at the sight of a
girl. Nut that women were so much of
a rarity in the diggings, but this girl—
youog, • beautiful and cultivated in ap
pearance, was in striking coutrast to
the rough wives and uneducated daugh
ters of the milters. With the young
girl was a mail of fifty—a bent, grizzled
man, as different from the typical miner
as possible, but still wearing the rough
grab of that class. Xue gill, too, was
closely clad—leaving, as Weyland was
shrewd enough to see, whatever of beau
ty or grace, she. possessed no dependents,
upon tae adjuncts of dress. True
enough her cheap straw hat was set oo
quetrshly upon her neatly arranged
brown hair, and a few bus of nbon
showed that she had brought into the
wilds the touches of civilized female
taste; but her dress was 01 the common
est calico, her shoes w ere course and no
stockings covered her shapely sun
browned feet.
The man and the girl passed Closer to
Weyland ; and the girl meeting his haii
impusitive gaze, blushed slightly as u in
deprecation of any criticism oi ner prim,
itive toiiat.
“She has worn silks and laces some
times,” was Weyiaud's mental remark,
“and she’d be a queen in them, if I’m u
judge of points of leuumue beauty. 1
wonder »l>o they are?”
The latter was easy of ascertaining,
certainly, ami Weyland promptly calieu
in the aid of Jack, his cook and a man
of all work, who was busy inside the
cabin.
“Who are they ?” he asked.
“Why, that’s old Grip,” was Jack’s
prompt reply ; that’s the only name the
boys has got for him—and the gal’s his
darter Nell.”
“Where do they live, snd what do '
they do V
“Wall, oid Grip used to he a miner on
his own hook, fore company got hold of
the diggings. Lately ne uadu’t done i
nothing of any 'count. They live—be’n
Nell—down in the boiler where the
discarded and ggings is.”
iFltc liticeliln JouipL
VOL V.
That was all that Jack knew of them,
i except- that the man's reputed close-fisted
habits had given him the characteristic
and descriptive name of Old Grip, and
that the daughter was seldom seen ont
i side the cabin.
Weyiaud’s curiosity was excited, and
the fair girl’s face had made ineffaceable
impression upon him. A day or two la
; ter he strolled in vicinity of old Grip's
! cabin, with a half-acknowledged hope of
; again seeing Nell. It was a cabin of the
j usual rough sort, but strongly fastened
| about the doors and windows, nobody
i seemed stirring in or around it, and, dis
i appointed, Weyland passed on. But a
further walk of a dozen rods brought
i better news, for Nell was before him—
| her arms full of broken wood which she
i had evidently gathered, and was carry
j ing to the cabin. The load was heavy
i for her, mid she was panting with glow
| mg cheeks reddened still more ; but she
| was about to pass with averted eyes,
J when he stopped her.
I “I’m afraid you have overloaded your
self,” he said pleasantly, but respectful
ly ; “let me carry it for you.”
“O, no, sir,” in a law, musical voice,
with no touch of the mining dialect in
it.
“0, yes,” lie persisted, and he took
the mass of sticks from her tired arms.
| “I was only taking them to the cab
| iu,” she saiit, passively yielding, “and
jtat is only a step. But they were rath- j
! er heavy, I confess, and 1 am greatly |
obliged to you.”
Acquaintances progress rapidly outside I
the fettering lines of civilization ; and !
besides, in the case of Weyland and Nell I
each appreciated the unusual boon of I
congenial socity. They nut freely and
quite naturally, almost daily. They
walked together, sang and talked, and
fell in love, as either might have known
i they would in the beginning,
j Old Grip, now known to Weyland as I
| Robert Garter, was past fathoming. IB)
! pleaded poverty on all of the few times,
j Weyland conversed with him ; he liven
j poorly, and did no work ; and he seemed
| to take l.ttie notice of the intimacy thall
i had sprung between (lie young people,
j indeed Weyland seldom saw him
“1-a;ner was unee in i.illuei.t circum

! liimseli iu a room in the Cabin iearly iv
: cry day, and does not allow uie to enter,
:or to know what he does them. The
; Imre sight of gold ore, too, seems to make
! him wild and irrational.”
I Finally Weylaml asked the father’s
' permission to many Nell, and gainued it.
! easily enough tor he .seemed to cure very
j little about it. The day was fixed for
; die simple wedding, and the simpler
! preparations proceeded without seeming
to awaken much suspicion iu the pitreu
! tal breast. He . locked himself in his
j room as usual, and paid no utteutkm to
i the matters which so absorbed the young
i people’s attention.
! One day Weyland lmrst into the cot
tage considerably excited,
i “See, Nell,” he said, throwing a huge
nugget of almost solid natural gold on
the rude table; “I've been worrying
' because I had no bridal gift for you.
| Corning here through the canon I found
| this nugget—heavy, solid, yellow mon
ster he is too—worth a thousand.”
I A rich bridal gift, indeed, considering
the surroundings ; and Nell’s eyes
i sparkled with delight as she gave her
lover a kiss of thanks. But the most
marked effect was upon Carter, whose
eyes seemed dazed and bewildered liy
the shining nugget. After gazing at. it in
a fascinated way for a lew moments, lie
touched it caressingly, and filially hugged
it to his bosom, as one would a much
loved child. The others watched his
movements curiously, but when lie saw
their scrutiny, he seemed to master his
feelings by an effort.
they talked of other matters,
and then went on an errand to the shanty
grocery, a quarter of a mile distant.
“That nugget is so valuable that I am
afraid oi robbery,” said Carter, when
they were alone, the strange light in his
eyes once more. “We had better secrete
it.”
“Very well,” assented Weyland,
“although nobody saw me find it.”
“Tills.way,” said Carter, hugging the
heavy mass to his bosom again. “We
will aide it.”
Weyland followed him into the room
which he had always so jealously guard
ed. It was baSe and unfurnished. Go
ing to a corner Carter pulled up a trap
door.
“Follow me,” he said, first lighting a
lamp, and the young man wouderingly
did so.
A ladder brought them into a sort of
cellar in the rock, from which led a nar
row passage. On each side lay glitter
ing heaps oi rich quartz, and there were
rudeiy constructed machines tor crush
ing, etc. Several strong boxes stood
about.
“Yon wouder at what you see.” said
Carter, whose excited manner now left j
no question as to his mania ; “and this i
is mine. They all think me poor, hut I j
j ***** richer than von can imagine. Xo
, body knows of this vein but me. I have
worked it ull alone, and even Nell don’t
! know of it. These boxes contain thou
| sands of solid gold. Your precious nug
| get shall be added to my store, nnd yon
| shall never live to tell of finding it ?”
Weyland had scarcely time to compre
-1 bend what he had heard before he was
felled to the ground by a terrible blow
! from a pickaxe.
i When he became conscious he felt a
! giddiness in Ids head Unit told him he
was considerably hurt. Then came a
| sensation of heat and suffocation, then
! the sound of crackling flumes ovi rhetnl
and a glow of the red light
The cabiu was uu fire 1
Too weak to rise to his feet, Weyland
still was tiHj much bewildered to fully
comprehend his terrible situation. The
crazy man had stumbled with the light
and set fire to the building. There
seemed no avenue of escape, unless by
the excavated vein ill the rock.
Weyland crawled to it and found it to
be a small passage. It was inky dark,
but he crept on, still too weak to walk.
The fiames crackled louder, and the
air became thick with smoke. Close as
he was to the grouud he could scarcely
breathe. Making his way along the pass
age in the darkness, with a deathly faint
ness—arising alike from his injury and
partial snffocatiou—crept over him ; but,
■well-knowing that to faint now would be
death, he crawled oil.
A few feet further on, a barrier of solid
rock hemmed him iu.
‘ The excavation goes no further,” he
cried. “I am lost. The air, with no
outlet will become too foul to breathe in
live minutes !”
At that instant, lie felt a strong current
of air blowing in his face. Hecould have
shouteiflbr joy, had his strength been
■ sufficient.
| The draft told him that the fire was
| creating an influx of pare air. Then
j the vein must have an opening soine
-1 where. Feeling about he found Unit the
j passage took an abrupt turn to the right
1 Bevived by the Comparatively fresh air,
J he managed with a great effort to proceed,
if On and on lie went—the distance, al
lihougii really not very great, seeming .-o
fto him; enfeebled as be was.
9 At lost he saw a faint, glimmer of light
fplicud, am UiVe in: came in aliiose stone
j ’vuUrAbrougii
This 1 ■
doited one, wnicii Carter had struck into
at tiie abrupt tutu mentioned, and be
hud waned it up to provenfuisenvery.
As VVeyiiuid returned the wait, lie heard
the sound oi a human voice. Was it a
fancy? Was he becoming delirious ? It
] was the voice of Neil, singing a.song that
| he had often heard.
j Giddiness again come over him: but,
\ with a despairing cry, lie tottered to his
| feet, and fell heavily against the wall.
The loosely-piled stones fell out-ward
under his weight, carrying with them the
mass of vines and twigs with which they
had deeu cleverly hidden on the oolside.
The next instant, Nell, astonished by
the sudden apparition, was kneeling oyer
the form of her itncoucions lover. Ue r
turning from her errand, she had passed
] the masked opening at the instant. Wey
| land tumbled from it with the stones and
! debris.
Help was obtained, mid his badly-gash
ed bead properly attended to. Scarcely
had this been done, whan the news of the
imruing of the cabin was brought, ami
that “Old Grip” bad perished in the
fiarnes.
Weyland aup Neil were subsequently
| married, and the product of Carter’s in
| sane and secret mining furnishes them
| with ample wealth. And they can siu
| cerely forgive his attempted murder,
knowing that an irresponsible mania in
cited him to its commission.
HOW THE WOMEN ORGANIZE,
ft a snd thing to see ten or twelve wo
men gel together and attempt to organ
ize a“. Society to Aid the Deserving
Poor.” They tried in Ninth avenue the
other afternoon, after having talked up
the matter for three or four weeks.—
Thirteen or fourteen of them met by up- j
pointmejt, and after some skirmishing
one member called the meeting to or
der aud said tuut the first duty would be j
to elect a President.
A sharp faced woman got up and said
that she didn’t want the position, but if
it was the wish of the meeting that she
should take it, why, she would.
There was a pause, audafat woman rose
ami said that she had considerable expe
rience with such societies, and that she
could render greater personal aid if
made President. There was another
painful pause, and a little woman rose
up and squeaked :
“I move to lay the motion on the ta
ble.”
The other woman looked at her iu a
freezing way, aud it was suggested that
a ballot be taken.
All readily agree 1 to this, aud ballots
were prepared and a bonnet was passed
around. When tiie votes were couuted
it was found that each woman had put
in at least one for herself, and three of
them had put in two or three. The Pres
ident pro tern, looked very grave as she
remarked ;
THOMSON, GA. SEPTEMBER 29,1875.
“Ladies, I trust that error may net
| occur agaiu.”
It did, however, or at least each one
! cast a vote for herself, but on the third
ballot a choice was made, ami The lucky
i woman took her seat., smoothed out the
I folds of her dress and remarked :
“The next thing iu order is the—the
j next thing 1”
A woman with a wart on her nose then
made a speech, saying that she had been
i treasurer of several associations, aud tliat
if it was the wish of the convention she
i would accept the office. It didn’t seem
i to be the wish, however.
“I move to adjourn 1” solemnly ex
claimed n woman with a large comb.
“The motion is not iu order,” replied
a woman across the room.
“Am I in the chair or are Tout?” de
manded the President.
“I move to reconsider the motion !”
said a little woman.
“I support the question '." put ill the
fat woiumi.
The President then wiped her specta
cles nipped .m the stove pipe Mid replied:
“Ladies and gentlemen, tlere is no
motion before the house, and the ques
tion of adjournment is entirely out of
order.”
“Not much !” exclaimed a woman
nearly six feet high, drawing herself up.
“I’ve seen more meetings of this kind
than the President, ever heart! of, and I
know that an order to adjourn is always '
iu motion!”
“So is your tongue !” said someone
on the lounge, and the President knock
ed on !he stove pipe fiercely and said :
“The chair believes she knows her
business as well as any woman wearing
plated jewelry, or ns well as if she had a
wart on her nose. We will .now proceed
to elect a Secretary and Treasurer. How
shall the officers lie elected?”
“Vicer vooer !” cried one.
“By ballot !” added a second.
“By exclamation !’’ shouted a third.
“You mean ncelamalior,” exehiiued
the President, looking sharp at the lust
speaker.
“I don’t wear an Alaska diamond,”
was the reply ; “but I knit..' as much in
' some folks that do i"

born in 1810.

small section of country near Winnsboro,
where a few years ago there were seven
hundred and fifty negroes, there are unw
ind two hundred and fifty. The negroes
are dying of consumption, a disease for

causes of the mortality.
