AUGUSTA, C3-A.:
Sunday Morning, October 24, 1875.
THE SABBATH.
The following beautiful ballad of the
Sabbath Is a literal description of the cus
toms which prevail In the rural districts
of the North of Ireland and in the Low
lands of Scotland. The author is not
known, though the poem is very general
ly circulated and often recited by the
jieasantry of Ulster.
We transcribe it from a Belfast paper.
KEMXISCENCES OP THE SABBATH DAT.
I remember, I remember when Sabbath
morning rose.
We changed, for garments neat and clean,
our soiled week-day clothes:
And yet no gaudy finery, nor brooch, nor
jewel rare.
But hands and faces polished bright, and
smoothly parted hair.
’Twas not the decking of the head, my
father used to say,
But careful clothing of the heart, that
graced that holy day;
’Twas not the bonnes nor the dress—and I
believed it true—
But those were very simple times, and I
was simple too.
I remember, I remember the parlour where
we met.
Its papered walls, its polished floor, and
mantel black as jet;
’Twas there we raised our morning hymn,
melodious, sweet and clear.
And joined in prayer with that loved voice,
which wo no more may hear.
Our moruing sacrifice thus made, then to
tlie house of God
How solemnly, and silently, and cheerfully
we trod!
I see e’en now its low thatched root, it3
floor of trodden clay,
And our old pastor’s time-worn face, and
wig of sliver gray.
I remember, I remember how hushed and
mute wo were t
While he led our spirits up to God, in heart
felt melting prayer;
To grace his action of his voice, no studied
charm was lent—
Pure, fervent, glowing from the heart, so to
the heart it went.
Then came the sermon, long and quaint,
but full of Gospel truth;
Ah me! I was no judge of that, for I was
then a youth.
But I have heard my father say—and well
my father knew—
In it was meat for full-grown men, and
milk for children too.
I remember, I remember, as 'twere but yes
terday.
The Psalms in Rouse’s version sung, a rude
but lovely lay.
Nor yet, though fashion’s hand has tried to
train my wayward ear,
Can I find ought in modern verse so holy or
so dear.
And well do I remember, too, the old pre
centor’s face,
As he read out and sung the line with pa
triarchal grace;
Though rudely rustic was the sound, I’m
sure that God was praised.
When David’s words, to David's tune, five
hundred voices raised.
I remember, I remember the morning ser
mon done—
An hour of intermission came—we wander
ed in the sun;
How hoary farmers sat them down upon
the daisy sod.
And talked of bounteous Nature’s stores,
and Nature’s bounteous God;
And matrons talked, as matrons will, of
sickness and of health.
Of births, and deaths, and marriages, and
poverty and wealth:
And youths and maidens stole apart, within
tne shady grove,
And whispered, neath its spreading boughs,
perchance some tale of love,
I remember, I remember how, in the church
yard lone,
I’ve stolen away and set me down beside
the rude grave-stone,
Or read the names of those who slept be
neath the clay-cold clod.
And thoughts of spirits glittering bright
before the throne of .God;
Or where the little rivulet danced sport
ively and bright,
Receiving on its limpid breast the sun’s
meridian light.
I’ve wandered forth, and thought IT hearts
wore pure like this sweet stream
How fair to Heaven they might reflect
Heaven’s uncreated beam.
I remember, I remember the second sermon
o’er—
We turned our faces once again to our pa
t-maldoor;
Aid roun l the well-filled, ample board sat
±4O .uiuetaut guest,
For exercise gave appetite, and loved ones
shared the feast;
Then, ore the sunset hour arrived, as wo
were wont to do.
The Catachism’s well-conned page we said
it through and through;
And childhood’s faltering tongue was heard
to lisp the holy word.
And older voices read aloud the message
of the Lord.
Away back in those days of yore, perhaps
the fault was mine,
I used to think the Sabbath day, dear Lord,
was wholly thine;
When it behooved to keep the heart, and
bridle fast the tongue;
But these were very simplej.times, and I
was very young.
The world hath grown much older since
these sunbright Sabbath days—
The world has grown much older since,
and she has changed her ways;
Some say that she has wiser grown; ah,
mel it may be true
That wisdom comes by length of years,
but so does dotage too.
Oh! happy, happy years of truth—how
beautiful, how fair,
To memory’s retrospective eye, your trod
den pathways are!
The thorns forgot, remembered still the
fragrance and the flowers;
The loved companions of my youth, and
sunny Sabbath hours.
And onward, onward, onward still, succes
sive Sabbaths come,
As guides to lead us on the ro id to our
eternal home;
Or, like the visioned ladder once to slum
bering Jacob given,
From Heaven descending to the earth, lead
back from earth to heaven.
Genius and Its Trials.
[Baltimore Sun.]
The calamities of genius are notori
ous. A long list of renowned names
was once published exemplifying this
truth, but perhaps there is no more
powerful illustration than is afforded
by the life of Michael Angelo, the im
mortal sculptor of Moses, David, Day
and Night; the painter of the Sistine
Chapel and the Last Judgment—the
architect of St. Peter’s. Italians of
Florence held a commemorative festi
val last month in honor of her greatest
name. Anew life of this remarkable
man—sculptor, painter, architect and
poet—has lately been written by Aure
lio Gotti. This work has been com
posed by the aid of hundreds of letters
hitherto locked from the world in the
ehests of the Buonarrotti family.—
The life is a revelation of sorrows
and trials akin to those flames of
affliction in which the great na
tures of the world are so often tried and
refined. The story of his troubles with
careless Popes and malicious and en
vious artists has been often told, but
this is a tale of an unworthy family
whom Angelo helped and fed and pain
fully held up against their own inertia
and evil. Father nor brothers thought
of him except as he supplied them with
money, stinting himself meanwhile so
that, when he was busy on the statue
of Pope Julius 11., he slept with his
workmen, four in a bed. His father
was old and perhaps childish, but his
brothers were ineffably mean. They
would complain of him to their father,
and theu the old man would reprove
him. He sent to a brother a fine dag
ger to present to Filippo Strozzi, and
the mercenary fellow instead sold it to
Filippo. The saddest letters are two,
one in bitter reproof to his youngest
brother, who had apparently long been
treating his father badly, and had final
ly gone so far as to strike him; the
other of infinite tenderness to the old
father, comforting him, and telling him
of plans for their future together.
This brother, disregarding the appeal
to reform at home, went straightway to
the West Indies —it was then in 1508—
and was heard from no more for forty
years. Then, Michael Angelo being
i seventy-three years old, he suffered re-
I morse at thought of his brother’s un-
Jblest death, far off, aud wrought anx
[ iously to know if he had confessed and
received the sacraments. When he
was answered he wrote thus :
“ You write that, also Giovansimone
has uot had all that the church or
duius, yet that he repented sincerely,
and this, if it be true, suffices for his
salvation. I have suffered bitterly, be
cause I hoped that, old as I am, I
' should have seen him before his or my
death. But it has pleased God thus.
Patience.”
Patience 1 The talisman for all the
trials of humanity, from which it seems
that the great are no more exempt
x than the small, and which are perhaps
l essential to the cleansing and discip-
I line of human nature.

“THE BOYS IN GREY.”
WE were wont to admire the boys who
wore the grey, though it was not for
the grey alone, but for the noble, chival
rous hearts that beat under it. They com
manded the admiration of the true and the
brave in every land. But how few admire
a fine head enveloped in grey hair and
whiskers I—very few. AYe all love admira
tion, and nothing in our appearance is
more calculated to secure it than pretty
hair. If old ago, sickness or sorrow has
robbed you of it, you can regain it by the
use of Dr. Tutt’s Hair Dye. Its populari
ty is so great that it can be found on the
stielves of every druggist in tho land.

HOW AWFULLY CULPABLE
MUSI 1 be those afflicted with Consump
tion, Bronchitis, Asthma, or any dis
ease of the Lungs, Throat or Chest, who
neglect to use Dr. Tutt’s Expectorant
after reading the following letter, written
by one of the most estimable ladies in the
South:
Savannah, Ga , April 28, 1872.
Dr. Tutt :—ln gratitude for the benefit
received by the use of your Expectorant, I
do cheerfully add my testimony to its won
derful power in curing deep-seated coughs.
For several years I suffered dreadfully with
a cough, attended wh h great difficulty of
breathing. I was induced to try your Ex
pectorant, and it gave almost immediate
relief. I took six bottles, and am now per
fectly restored. It is about five months
since I began its use, and I have not had an
attack since. It has been a great blessing
to me; I cannot afford to be without it ana
heartily recommend it to all who have,lung
or throat disease. Very respectfully,
Mrs. A. M. Wellborn.

INCREDULITY.
HOW potent is this trait of the human
mind. The Bible refers to it and
says: “Were an angel to come down from
heaven, ye would not believe.” It is the
cause of much injury. We are disposed to
doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and
so far is it indulged, that it often leads to
misanthropy.
This is particularly applicable to the vir
tues of many truly valuable remedial
agents, however strong they may be en
dorsed.
Reader, if you have Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, Sick Headache, Torpid Liver,
Bilious Colic, Kidney Disease, Flatulence,
Constipation of the Bowels or General De
bility, and hesitate to use Dr. Tutt’s Livek
Pills, write to him and he will furnish you
with hundreds of certificates from the
most reliable men and women in the coun
try, who have been cured by them, of whom
you can make direct inquiry. It will cost
you but a postage stamp. The proprietor
solicits the investigation of all who need a
trulv valuable medicine.

Gentlemen: We have been running your Compound Opener Lappers and 4mistier

Langley, 8. C„ April 14, 1873. f
The Kilson Machine Company, LoweU, Maas.:
Gentlemen, f hove been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher Lappers, with Eveners, lor m >re th' n two years past, at the Cotton Mill of the
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, wo have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet wo have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. Tho staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding aud cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its secu-ty against fire.
Yours, &c.. M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
