“SALUS POPULI SUPBEMA LEX EBTO.”
WAYNESBORO’, GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1872.
OCTOBER'S SON.
‘ O, deep brown eyes,” sang gny October j
“Deep brown eyes running over with glee;
Blue eyes are [vale, and gray eyes are sober;
Bonny brown eyes are the eyes for me.
"Black eyes shine in the glowing summer,
With red of rose and yellow of corn ;
But cold they close when the still late coiner,
Silvery frost creeps over the morn.
“Blue oyes shimmer with nngel glances,
Like spring violets over the lea—
But oh, my grapes, my w ipes, my dances,
What have angels in common with me 1
“Go, gray eyes ! What know ye of laughing,
Giddy with glee from the mere sunshine 1
Go to your books ! What know ve of quaffing
Luscious juice from the riotous vine 7
“All the eartli is full of frolicking;
Growing is over, harvest s done,
All the trees are ready for rollicking,
Glowing scarlet with rustical fun.
“Stay, brown eyes, in the purple weather,
A crown of oak leaves with maple blent,
Shall deck your brow while gayly together
We two will wonder to heart's content.”
Thus October’s wild voice was singing,
While on his pipe he cunningly played ;
All the red woods with music were ringing,
And browu eyes listened with footsteps
stayed—
Waited to hear the song beguiling,
Listened and laughed through the sunny
day;
And earth and sky fell to merry smiling,
As hand in hand they wandered away.
II FfllTli ST LAI.
I was chatting one day with an old
school mate of mine, who, though young
was a barrister of some eminence, when
the conversation turned upon his own
career.
“People” he said, “give me credit for
much more than I deserve. They com
pliment me on having attained nty po
sition by talent, and sagacity, and all
that Borl of thing; but the fact is, I
have been an extremely lucky man—l
mean as regards opportunities. The on
ly tiling for which I can really consider
myself entitled to credit is, that I have
always bceD prompt to take advantage
of them.”
“But,” I observed, “you Lave a high
reputation for legal knowledge aod acu
men. I have heard several persons
speak in terms of great praise of the
manner in which you have conducted
some of your late cases.”
“Ah, yes,” he returned; “when a man
is fortunate, the world soon fiuds fine
things in him. There is nothing like
gilding to hide imperfections and bring
out excellencies. But I will give you
one instance of what I call my luck. It
happened a year or two ago, and before
I was quite as well knowu as I am now.
It was a trivial thing in itself, but very
important iu its consequence to me, and
has ever since been very fresh in my
memory. I had been retained on be
half of a gentleman who was defendant
in an action for debt, brought against
him by a bricklayer, to recover the
amount of a bill, stated to be due for
building work doue on the gentleman’s
premises. The owner refused payment
on the ground that a verbal contract;
had been made for the execution of the j
work, at a price less by one-third than '
the amount claimed. Unfortunately he
had no witnesses to the fact. The man
denied the contract, alledged that no
specifications bad been made, and plead
ed finally, that if such contract had been
entered into, it was vitiated by altera
tions; to all of which ho was fully
prepared to swear, and had his as
sistant also ready to certify the amount
of labor and material expended. 1 gave
my opinion that it was a hopeless case,
and that tho defendant had better agree
to a compromise than incur any further
expense. However, ho would not, and
I was fain to trust him to the chapter of
accidents for any ebanoe of sucoess.
Near the town where the trial was to
take place lived an old friend of mine,
1 who, after the fir6t day’s assize, ctrried
tne off in his carriage to ditto and
sleep at his house, engaging to drive me
over next morning in time for this case,
which stood next on the list. Mr. Trit
ten, tho gentleman in question, was
there also, and wo had another discus
sion as to the prospects of h:s defence.
“I know the fellow,” said he, “to be a
thorough rascal, and it is because I feel
so confident that something will come
out to prove it, that I am determined
to persist.” I said I hoped it might be
so, and we retired to rest.
After breakfast the next morning,
my host drove me over iu his dog-cart to
the assize town. We were just entering
the out-skirts when, from a turning
down by the old inn and posting-house
where the horse was usually put up,
there cutne ruuuing towards us a lad
pursued by a man, who was threaten
ing him in a savage manner. Finding
himself overtaken the lad, after the
custom of small boys in such circum
stances, lay down, curling himself up
and holding his bauds clasped over his
head. The man approached, and after
benting him roughly with his fist, and
trying to pull him up without success
took hold of the hoy’s coat, and knock
ed his head several times on the ground.
We wore just opposite at the moment,
aud my friend bade him let the lad
alone, and not be such a brute. The
fellow scowled, and telling us with
an oath, to miud our own business, and
he had a right to boat him if he pleas
ed, walked off, and his victim scamper
ed away in the opposite direction.
The dog cart wa3 put up, and wc
presently went up to the court. The
case was opened in an off hand style by
the opposite counsel, who characterized
the plea of a contract as a shallow eva
sion, and called the plaintiff as his prin
cipal witness. What was my surprise
to see get into the box the very man
whom we beheld hammering the boy’s
head on the curb stone an hour before!
An idea occurred to me at the moment
and I half averted my face from him;
I though, indeed, it was hardly likely he
would recognize me under my forensic
■ wig. lie gave his evidence in a posi
tive, defiant sort of way, but very clear
ly and decisively. He bad evidently
got his story well by heart, and was de
termined to stick* to it. I rose and
made a show of cross-examining him,
till I saw him getting irritated, and de
nying things iu a wholesale style. He
had been drinking, too, I thought, just
enough to make him insolent and rest
less. So, after a few more unimportant
1 questions, I asked in a casual tone —
“Y'ou are married, Mr. Myers ?”
“Yes, l ant.”
“Aud you arc a kind busbaud, I sup
pose ?”
“ I* suppose so; what then ?”.
“Have any children blessed your
union, Mr. Myers ?”
The plaintiff’s couusel here ealled on
the judge to interfere. The ques
tions were irrelevant and iinperiiuent
to the matter in question.
I pledged my word to the Court that
they were neither, but had a very im
portant bearing upon the case, and was
allowed to proceed. I repeated my
question.
“I’vo a boy and a girl.”
“Pray, how old are they ?”
“The boy’s twelve, and the girl niuc,
I believe.”
“Ah ! well, I suppose, you are an af
fectionate father, as well as a kind
husband. You are not in the habit of
beating your wife aud children, arc
you ?”
“ I don't sec what business ’tis of
yours. No, I ain't.”
“You don’t knock your son about for
example ?”
“No, T don’t. He was growing down
. right savage, especially as the people
in tho court began to laugh.
“ You don't pummel him with your
fist ?”
•‘No, r don’t ”
II #2 a year, in advance,
“Or knock his head upon the ground
in this manner ?” and I rapped the ta
ble with tny knuckles,
j “No,” (indignantly.)
“You never did such a thing?”
i .< No j*
“You swear to that ?”
“Yes.”
All this time I had never given
him an opportunity of seeing uiy face;
I now turned towards him and said—
“ Look at me, sir! Did you ever see
: me before ?”
He was about to say no agaiu, but
all at once lie stopped, turned very white
and made no answer.
“That will do, sir, I sa'd. “ Stand
down, sir. My lord, I shall prove to
you that this witness is not to be believ
cd on his oath.”
I then related what we had seen that
morning, and putting my friend who
had been sitting behind me all the
while, into the witness box, he of course
confirmed the statemant.
The Court immediately decided that
the man was so unworthy of be
lief that the result was a verdict for
defendant, with costs, and a severe re
primand from the Judge to Myers, who
was very near being committed for per
jury. But for the occurrence in the
morning, the decision would evidently
have been against us. As I said before
it was in a double sense fortunate for
me, for it was the means of my intro
duction, through Mr. Trittcn, to an in
fluential and lucrative connection.
TEN IIAKD DOLLARS.
My father was a poor man. A large
and growing family was dependent on
him for its daily bread. Coming home
one wintry evening from a week’s toil
iu a neighboring town with ten hard
earned dollars in his pocket, he lost
them in a light snow. Long and fruit
less were the searches for them. After
the snow was gone, again and again was
the search renewed, with the same result.
The enow fell and melted again for a
whole generation, and still the story of
the lost dollars was fresh in our family
circle; for a silver dollar to a poor man
in those days was larger than a full
moon.
About a utile away lived another
father of a family in a similar circum
stance. He, too, knew how much a
dojlar cost dug from the heart of a rocky
farm. At least once, or oftener, every
week for forty years he had occasion to
pass our door, giving and receiving the
common neighborly salutations, and
every time with a weight increasingly
heavy on his conscience. But all such
pressure has its limit; and when that
is reached the crash is the greater for
the severity of the strain. In this in
stance it was as when an old oak rends
its body and breaks its limbs in falling.
One day completely broken down, he
came to niy father in tears, confessing,
“I found your dollars iu the snow forty
years ago. They have been bard dollars
to me, and I can carry tbcm no longer.
I have come to return them, and ask
| your forgiveness, and as soon as I can I
will pay you the interest.’
Tho scene was like that when Jacob
and Esau met over the ford Jabbok.
I He did not live long enough to pay
the interest, but quite long enough to
furnish a practical comment on the
; text “The spirit of a man will sustain
his infirmity, but a wounded spirit who
can bear ?” Who will say that con
science, though slumboring in this life
will never awake to punish the offeuder
in the life to come ?

nOW TO DWARF A TOWN
Horace Greeley presents the follow*
ing as a sure measure of destroying the
prosperity of the most promising town :
“If you want to k ;ep a town from
thriving, dou't put up any more new
buildings than you can conveniently
oesupy yourself, if you should accident
ally have an empty building, and any one
should want to rent it, ask three times
the value of it. Demand a Shylock
price for every spot of ground that Go
has made you steward over. Turn a
cold shoulder to every mechanic and
business man seeking a home with yotl.
Look at every new comer with a scowl.
Run down the work of every new work
man. Go abroad for wares rather than
deal with those who seek to do business
in your midst. Fail to advertise, or in
any way to support your paper, so that
people abroad may not knowwbethe- any
business is gojng on in that town or not.
Wrap yourselves up within yourselves
with a coat of impervious selfishness.
There is no more effectual way to re
tard the growth of the town than actions
F.ke those enumerated, and there are
people in every town who are pursuing
the same course every day of their lives
and to whom these remarks are respect
fully offered for their consideration.”

A Bad Mkmoky. —There was once a
good old lady whose great age affected
her in little less than in her memory.
SLe had forgotten nearly all her past
life, and could not remember the names
of her nearest relations. But she never
forgot, and being very sensitive on the
point, she endeavored in all sorts of
crafty ways to conceal her weakness in
this respect. One day an old friend
called on her, and in the coarse of con
versation a Mr. Jacob Peters was men
tioned. The old lady pricked up her
ears and tried to look knowing. To
save her life she could not remember
who Mr. Peters was. ‘Yes, yes,’ said
she, cunningly; ‘Jacob Peters! Cer
tainly, certainly, I remember. But
just let’s understand each other. Peo
ple do make such mistakes, you know,
when they don’t fix things all straight
at first. Now tell me exactly what
Jacob Peters you mean,’
‘Why, don’t you remember Jacob ?’
cried the visitor. ‘Jacob was your first
husband.’ The old lady mused. ‘Ja
cob Peters.’ said sbc. ‘Why, yes, I
believe be was my husband, or some
thing of that kind.’
A Tali of Lot* —One quiet day in
leafy June, when bees and birds were
all in tune, two lovers walked beneath
the moon. The night was fair, so was
the maid; they walked beneath the
shade, with none to harm or make afraid.
Her name was Sal and his was Jim, and
be was fat and she was slim; he took to
her and she took to him. Says Jim to
Sal: “By ail the snakes that squirm
among the brush and brakes, I love you
better’n buckwheat cakes.” Says sho
to Jim, ‘since you'vr begun it, and been
and gone and done it, I love you next
to anew bonnet.’ Says Jim to Sal,
‘My heart you’ve busted, but I ‘have
always gals mistrusted. Says Sal to
Jim, ‘I will be true ; if you love me ai
I love you, no knife can cut our love
in two.’ Says Jim to Sal, ‘Through
thick and thin, for your true lover
count me in, I’ll court no other gal
agiu.’ Jim leaned to Sal, Sal loaned to
Jim, his nose just touched above her
chin, four lips met —went —ahem!—
ahem! And then—and then—and—
then- —and—then. Oh, gals beware of
men in June, and underneath the silvery
moon, when frogs and Junebags arc in
tune, lest you get your Dame in the
papers soon.
