which took place on laet Wednesday, Mr.
Ragsdale became enraged with his daughter
aud ordered her to lrave his house and never
rSOAS HIS THRESHOLD AGAIN’.
The exiled daughter then sought Mrs.
Adderboldt and confided to her all of her
troubles ard the cause of all her woes.
Mrs. Adderboldt comforted the girl, and
carried her to tbe house whf re she wa* stay
ing. Ou that right Mrs. Ragsdale broaght

until tbe mother notified her that she could
wiih safety.
Ou the next day, Sunday, Miss Ross Rags
dale received an invitation from some lady
friends iu tbe neighborhood to visit them,
which she accepted, asking her lover to ac
company her.
After they arrived at the honse, the lady
left her gallant waiting on the porch, while
she followed the ladies of the house into s
back room to take off her bonnet.
The lover, with
ILL CONCEALED IMPATIENCE,
waited for at least thirty minutes fer the re
appearance of his loved one, but with no avail.
He, unable to curb his impatience longer,
commenced making iDqniry after the yonng
lady and foand that she was missing, but af
ter pushing his inquiries farther, he found
that she had left tne honse in company with
his rival, Mr. John Crawford, without inti
mating to any one where she was going.
Ho followed blindly, without having any idea
of what path he took or where the road might
lead, trusting simply to instinct, he says,
knowing that his heart would lead hist to it*
mate, and after a walk of aboat a half of a
mile, he found himself in front of the bouse
where
“his sweet”
was concealed.
He found quite a nnmber of yonng men
who were friends of Crawford, congregated
about the house. *
When he first asked tor Miss Ragsdale, some
inmate of the house, denied that she was
there, but after repeated demands he found
that she was in the house, but he could not
see her. He then consulted his mother and
friends ic reference to the matter.
His mother then sought the girl and asked
here which was her preference, her son or
Mr. Crawford.. The girl unhesitatingly de
cided ii. favor uf Mr. Adderboldt.
By the advice of his mother, Mr. Adder-
hoidt went to a magistrate and
OBTAINED A LICENCE,
and together, with his mother and some few
friends, went back to demand his promised
mile',
* »n the way to the house he wae met by
Solicitor General A. H. Cox. who advised him
not to be eeen on the street, as there was
danger of his being mobbed. Nothing dannt
ed by this admonition, with an impatience
which showed lhat the recovery of bis be
trothed was uppermost in bis mind, hs hur
ried back to the house where he expected to
find his love waiting. Bnt, alas for human
hopes! When he arrived he found that his

and flown, no one knew where.
His anxiety was increased by the absence
of Crawford from the scene. For while Ad-
derholdt and his friends were procuring the
licence, Crawford and bis friends were not
idle; they bad made application to the only
livt-ry stable in the town for a horse and
bug_y, with a view of carrying Miss R\gedals
to au adjoining town, where they could be
married. As soon as Crawford left the house

To tes Editors of the Herald:
Supposing yonr readers will be glad to
know how old Sumter is doing, I will tell you.
At the County Conventiou to-day, a full
Cook delegation was elected to attend the
nominating convention lo be held in Macon,
oa the 10th of September. Sumter is a unit
for 0ook.
The convention to-day also nominated two
of the best men in the county for tho Legis
lature—Col. T. M. Farlow aud Mr. W R.
Stewart. The former is well known all over
the State, and needs no word of praise from
us. The latter is a man of as staunch integ
rity as ike Colonel, and is also a man of fine
sense. Two better men couldn’t have been
found in the cosnty, and Sumter is willing to
send them to represent her, uu rammeled b>
any ius f ructioos. ei'-her on tbe Bind questioa
or auy other, having unbounded confidence
in their integrity and intelligence. Sumter
has always voted right, and we intend this
winter to poll an overwhelming vote for the
regular nominees.
The delegates selected to represent tho
eootty in the convention to nominate a Sen
ator are staunch and true, and will v te for
the bbsl man for the place. Hon. C. B. Hud
son, of Schley, stands a vejy good chance.
We will probably have some independent
Candidates; indeed, Col. Jack Brown hi.s
already announced himself for Congress. B >t
adopting the rule that “he who is not for us
is against us,” we will either ran hiai from
the field or force him to run, as he did when
Cook beat him before, on the nigger ticket.
And now to crops. The farmers are com
plaining terribly anont the continued droaght,
sayiug that tbe cotton is shedding very rapid
ly, and fiat one more week of dry weather
will eat off the erop fully one-half, but as it is
a kuown fact that farmers as a class are not
very reliable when information as to cr >ps
wanted, you will have to take the account

Th* Atlanta News, a few days ago, contains
the following paragraph :
The Taller Base Bali Club returned from
Macon Sunday evening in fine spirits, but
fatigued. They are very well satisfied with
their treatment by I he Macoa boj*. but they
think it could bare been a little more courte-
oua.
In reply to this tbe Star Club ean only say
that they entertained tbe Atlanta Club ou Fri
day as was onderstoou before tbe club arrived
here. They had made arrangements to ren
der them entirely comfortable during their
e f ay here; but wi.en, upon their srrival, instead
of the clnb being composed entirely, as was
expected, of Atlanta young men, of good per
sonal character and social standing, several
members of t were Federal soldiers from
McPherson barracks, the obligations of cour
tesy were, in the main, ended! though the
hotel bill lor one day was paid as stipulated
Had the Stur Clnb known in advance that
they would have to play with that class of men
the challenge would Dot have been accepted.
Tbe umpire was also found to be a Federal
soldier, after he had keen introduced by the
Captain of tbe Taller* to the Captain of tbe
Stars as aa Atlanta gentiemaa. The Stars
think they were imposed upon, and honors to
be easy,
Srsa B B. Ci.cb.
In reply to tbe above card of tbe Macon
Star Base Ball Club, which we notice eimply
because it is an official proclamation of that
clab, we have to atate that there is scarcely
a word of truth in the whole carJ.
Tbe Taller club of Atlanta, has cot a single
Federal aoldier in it and did not have one
accompanying it iu any way connected with
the elnb. The member* oi tbe Toiler club
wbo went on the trip, will take pl-asure in
attending to any individual of tbe Star club,
who has any reflections to cast upon the social
standing or personal character of a*y of ua,
and we should be pleased to have the one
designate I wbo ie claimed to be without
good personal or social standing.
The Federal soldier who acted aa umpire,
t* the Captain of a Club at the barracks, and
wae *o introduced at tbe time. Aud th* holy
horroo that the Macon gentlemen expressed
of thi* Federal soldier seem* not to have pre
vented th* Star Club from eballeuging the
Federal Soldier Club by letter to a contest.
So it seems tbet th* Maeon Clnb were not
consistent when they say if they had "known
in advance that they would have to play
with that class 'of men, the challenge would
not have been accepted,” since they ohal
ienged these very men to play.
We havs simply t* say that we decline to
enter into any ceotcat *f mud with the Star
Club. That Club has iu it* eard above
quoted, owned np lo tbe discourtesy thst was
charged, and attempted to justify it by alleg
ing to be true what is notoriously false.
It is due to ourselves to state that the
eharge of discourtesy did not eminate from
onr body, and we regretted its publication.
We beat th* Star Clab on two Micceoive
days, and charitably ascribed the discourtesy
to the eortnes* over defeat.
In eoaolosion we *ay, that as we taaght our
competitors of tbe Star Clnb, a lrssou in base
ball playing, if they will come to Atlanta we
will initiate them into the practices of a gener

A TOUCHINQ TALE OF DEATH.
A oombinwtion ot circumstances led me to
become a frequent passenger in ths summer
of 18—, oo a steamboat having tbe wharvs*
of New York, whose destination was Boston.
On one of these occasions, just before the
boat started, a pretty girl of perhaps seven
teen or eighteen stepped aboard, inquired for
the steward aud secured a state-room, saying
she was going through to Boston. Her man
ner was easy aud gull-possessed; yet a certaic
audacious sauemess in her splendid brown
eyes, tbe jaunty way in winch she wore her
Turkish feat, her independent air, and a name
less suggestion of mischief which appeared to
lurk iu every mov* m A nt, arrested tho observ
er's attention; and seemed to indicate that
she was proficient beyond her years iji
the world's knowledge; that her tutelage, to
cay the leiat, had par.uken more ot lenience
than prudence. Her dress was rich aud ex-
Thero has seldom been a more auspicious

Booth’s Theatre last evehiog by tho produc

audit nee of exceptional brilliancy and culture,
and Author, actors, and managers were the
recipients of a demonstration which attained
the height of au ovation at as early a stage of
ihe ptrioruiauce as the end of the first act,
and continued iu increased volume long after
the final fall of the curtain. The impression
that “BelleLunar’ produced was more than
fdvor.ible. Mr. Boucicauit has presented au
episode iu the late civil war with the consum
mate skill which had b2eu previously evinced
in his best efforts, displaying an originality
in situation, au art in ciim&x, and a bnllian
cy and terseness of dialogue which make up
a play eminently complete anti moviDg. He
has taken ler his plot ihe circumstance*
which follow upon tke separation of man aud
wile through their struggle between love and
patriotism. Colonel Biigh and his wife Isa
bel are J alternated upon* the the breaking
out of the war between the North and the
South. She has tailed in her attempts to in
duce him to expouse the {Southern cause—a
cause to which she was bound through the iu-
fl'juce ot birth, breeding, aud connection—
and has gone to the Shenandoah Yalley,
where she does valu iblu service as a spy. Her
hnsband’pidopts the Union cause and takes
command of a regiment. A divorce is pro
cured through the efforts of her friends and
they are suoposibly separated forever. Isabel
j) tys iho price of information obtained in re
gard to the Union movements by affiancing
uerselt to M.rston Pike, a young Union offi
cer, who, ignorant of her hi dory aud un
conscious ot tLo usa lo which she puls the
knowledge innocently imparted by him,
cherishes for her a deep aff ction. He goe*
so tar is his confiding faith as to give her
pass through the Union lines. {She uses it
tor the purpose ot obtaining imformation for
Stonewall Jackson, but her scheme fails, and,
in company with a Confederate officer, she is
seized ami dragged into the camp of Colonel
Biigh, her former husband, and the brother-
officer snd intimate friend of Marstou Pike.
The pass is found on her person. Colocel
Biigh shows it to Mars:on, who confesses all
m an outburst ot horror at bis unconscious
wrong, aud finally descends from the court-
man ml where ho lias taken his place to sit ia
judgment upon Isabel aud Patrick Stuart, the
Confederate officer, and avows bis partipation
ia ihtir guilt. At the name time he proclaims
thatlsibel is the wife of tbe Colonel, aud
this revelation so works upon the minds of
ihe other members of the court-martial that
they refuse to pats judgment upon her.
Mirston, however, is condemned to death,
and is only saved by the artful intervention
of Isabel, who provides him with a pass and
escort furnished at her requt st, and not only
takes bis price, and volunteers to lead the
troops of her husband to an ouriet from the
dangtr which ma&aces them. The cjmplete
reconciliation of Colonel Biigh and Isabel, the
return to tho Union hues of Marston, who re
deems himself by obtaining valuable rein
forcements aud the final deliverance of Col.
Bligh’o forces, and the “passage of the She
nandoah” bring the piay to a close. The
finest situation is that at the end of the first
act when Label is ushered—a captured spy,
torn, bleeding, but defiant—iato the^resence
of ner husband, Colonel Biigh, and her lover,
Maston Pike. A more moving situation could
he ireely be conceived than this which com
bines the awlui amazement of Blight and the
uo:6 than horror ot Marston. A good point
is tint made by tbe avowal of Marston, and
tht.:.e excL?iaiil situations are surrounded by
vivacious comedy, and set in all the move
ment and colt-rot military acrion and display.
Mr. John McCullough has a strong role in
Colonel Biigh—a part which fils him perfeect
jy. and which he imbues with the miogird
strength aud delicacy for wnich he is pre
eminent. Mr.fcMcCuilourfh is no less effective
sn his repose than iu his outbursts, and a
complete or better rounded im persona! ian

Since the advance in bar iron noted in the latter
part of July the market has been quiet; the advance,
however, ia flrmly held, and manufacturers seem gen
erally vary confident that still better prices will bs ob
tained dur &g the next six weeka. They argue that
for months past iron has b.en rold at several dollars
per ton less than It cost to produce it; that this was
owing to the desire of the mills to reduce their stock
of seltiDg ores, large amounts of which were carried
over from the season of 1878; that in addition to this
many mill owners In December last, seeing that pig
Iron was very lo*, and belieriag a reaction Imminent,
made Urge purchases of the metal, to be delivered
during the spring and early summer. The hoped-for
advance did not occur; on the contrary lower prices
prevailed, and these mills,' becoming demoral aed,
thraw their wares on the market, at the best prices
they could get, in order to raise funds to meet their

passenger*, of course, shunned and kept aloof
from a noxious poison, as if her very contact
would breed pestilence^ The gentlemeu did
likewise to a great extent, more, I bdieve,
from a tender regard for feminine opinion,
than from any considerable ins inct of hf-rror.
Suddenly the smile died on her lips, and her
face became inexpressible sad and earnest, us
she gaesd far out ocrosa the water- Her atti
tude add expession as she stood thus formed
a picture which will never f>ide in my memo
ry.; she looked so inocent, so childlike, snd
so] intensely sorrowful. In a moment she
turned to the ciptain with sotnlhiug of her
old manner. Reaching up her dehc.ito white
hands, she took hold of his abundant whisker*
on each side of his face, as the reader las been
peted daaghter caress her father, and, looking
np into bis face, ask*d with great solemnity:
“Did you evpr want to die, captain?”
“Well, no, my child,” ho replied, somewhat
surprised at hor changed manner. “I can’t
■y that I ever had a great desire to die.”
“And if jou had such s desire, what would
you do?”
Ob, iu that case.” said he. as he loosed
her bands and turned away, “I think, as it
would be the most available method, I ahou d
jump overboard and drown myself.”
Hcaroely had he finished speaking, wh*n eh*
whirled, put one band on the railing, aud
leaped into tbe Sound. The whole movement
so instantaneous that it was impossible
for any one to anticipate or prevent it. A cry
of horror w*nt up from those who saw th*
movement. Borne stood transfixed and una
ble to move, while others hurried about in
oenfased excitement. The captain had the
boats Iswered and manned almost instantly.
A moment alter her distppearauce she came
to the surface. There was nothing scared in
her expression,and ehemade no straggle to save
herself. I saw her face distinctly as she emuo
up, and I fancied I could detect iu it theeatue
sorrowful look it had worn a fow moment*
before; though even that expression could not
wholly depriv* it of a certain jtuaty grace
which became it well. It was only a momen

appeared just aa the first boat touched water.
I think I never saw sadder men than these
rough sailor* when they pulled the heavy
yawl alongside and replied to a hundred si
multaneous interrogatories; “We foand no

Conductor Stui J-ffdries, of the H*nmba
A St Josepa Railroad, tells a pretty tough
siory of bow a Texas c» tie-herder took care
of himnelf. He went down to Texas some
four months ago with a goodly lot of cattle,
ana sheared an excellent loettion for herding
purposes. For a time everything went well,
aud he had just begun to congratulate hiui-
s-If upon Iho fact tuat his lines had beon cast
in plb&aaht places, whoa one evening about a
do/.en “civilized” Indians undertook to stam
pede the cattlt. This rather irritated the
herder, aud he sent a perfect tornado of balls
am mg the raiders killing three or four of
ihem. The survivors made complaint to the
Indian Commissioner, and the latter at once
dispatohed an offi oer to arrest the offendor

suit ensued. The herder was heard of in New
York, then in Olnoago, then in Iowa, and at
other points, bnt somehow or other the offi
cer was uuable to oomo up with him. Laet
Thursday the herder was comfortably seated
at Capfc. Blossom's hotel in Brookfield, par
taking ot an excf.lljnt supper, cfllcUl, who at
once recognized tho fngrive and called him
by name, at the name time remarking, “You
have about run me ont cf money in this
chase.” “Yen,” was the cool reply, “and you
have about done the same thing with me.”
“But,” K»id the officer, “how are w to get

time produc'ng a hnge navy and corking it ;
“I liropoA© to aell out right hero.” “Hold

have a wife and two children.” “1 know that

the only thing that has saved yonr life so far.”
The matter was finally compromised by tbe
herder giving tne officor $25 to pay

to mnke his way to Texas and inform the
