Worthy of Imitation.—We mention
ed sometime since that Mr. Alack Garrett
of Broowtown, who had been very ill with
pneumonia, had recovered- We were
pleased to learn, the other day, that his
neighbors finding that his fanning opera
tions wore in a bad condition, owing to
his protracted illness, appointed a day
and met early in the morning on his farm
with 14 plowmen, and planted his crop
for him and he now lias everything straight
ahead of him. Throe cheers for Broom
town valley! Let other sections act the
same way. It reminds us of old times.
Lands will rise in Broomtown.
What a Time We Had.
To the Editor qf The Gazette:
A number of the young people of this
village having heard of the exhibition to
be given by Prof. Marshall’s school in
Dirttown, on Friday night last, considered
it would lie one of the great treats, and so
conceived the idea of turning out eu
masse. So early in the week buggies and
horses were engaged for the trip, while
silver tipped notes were borne from street
to street, and were answered in the most
placid manner, (though ' reserving the
right to decline under certain contingen
cies. ) Having thus made ample araanga
ments for the transportation of all, the
dawn of the 2d was looked forward to
with tlie greatest delight, and the highest
expectation, with nothing to trouble the
pleasure of the fleeting moments, but the
casual thought, “will they ask us to lunch
with them?” “What in the world will
they do?” though we could but expect
the su'olime.st of the sublime, as we had
heard “they had the finest of material
over there. ”
Friday eauie at la>t, and with it dark
and lowering clouds which marred the
beauty of the morn, and perhaps threw
a damper over many a buoyant hope; but
as the sun reached his meridian splendor
the indications were mote propitious for
lair weather, and soon we were behind
fleeting steeds coursing our way towards
the destined spot.
Arriving there we found a large crowd
in attendance, amt still flocking from every
direction, though we Wire just, too lato to !
hear the iiioqucnt and learned Hamilton
in his endeavor to edify the people upon
the subject of education. Wo are told,
however, he did as much justice to the
subject as his ability would admit, throw
ing no brambles in the way ol his Sena
torial aspirations.
The hour for supper wa* next on hand,
and l am told that the supply of pro
visions was not inadequate, notwithstand
ing the vast asrenibly, but, the crowd was
too large for the provisions. These
escorting young ladies from this place
were invited to lunch, that is, the young
ladies were, and the young men, their
escorts, went; but this deponent having
none of that kind of commodity with him,
did not got so much as a smell.
The programme next on hand was the
evening’s entertainment, which com
menced at early candle light. Of this I
can’t say much, as the house was so
crowded outside and inside. 1 did, how
ever, get close enough one time to hear
that Caesar was dead; that is, I suppose
he was; I heard one young u an say “I
have come to bury him.”
I am told the music and singing were
very fine. lam very fond of music, and
when I was young I fell in love with a
lady, by hearing her play and sing,
“Silver Threads Among the Gold,”
though I have since learned that there
are more ways of singing it than one,
Some like it according to Dirttown, and
some according to Summerville —I’ll take
it in mine without the extra operatic
touches of Dirttown.
Well, the exercises were closed by a
speech from Mr. Proctor, a rising young
lawyer from Home. lam told his speech
was very good, and would have been
better, had he not got hold of the “cow’s
tail,” and got some fair one wrapped up
so firmly and lovingly in the arms of king
Murphy.
As the moon was not shining when the
exercises closed, the crowd concluded to
flay ad night, the weather was exceeding
ly oppressive; and I wondered why it did
not rain? Hail itnot been for the “Wid
der Sprawl,” I would not have had a
place to sleep that night. But finding
the next morning thatshe was very much
cnowded, I left before breakfast, arid
arrived at home by 6 o’clock —my usual
hoar for that meal.
The most of our crowd came back a
little better off than they went, with the
exception of a few lost blankets, and a
buggy spread. And we shall ever hail
with the highest joy the coming of an
other exhibition at that old capacious
academy—remembering that if the hum-1
merville girls can’t sing, they can boast ol |
more etiquette and beauty, than some
places we know of.

CHAPTER VII.
When Mike bad come sutliciehtly near
the shore t, insure his own safety, be
purposely u| ot the beat and throwing
himself into the rat or and swam ashore,
and procc M I!■ tho mansion- My lady
stood at tin windt ,v, alone in the room,
looking out upon t raging storm and
thinking of Edge t
Presently hcarim a foot-step in the
hall, and sure two In opened the door
to speak to him, but 1 ■■■■ Mike stood
i there, all wet and liivei >e Seeing her
| he dropped down upon his „ -vs and hid
i his face in his hands, pietevlei . to weep.
Regarding him in astonishmem, a thous
and thoughts flashing through 'i-r mind,
a store of fears possessing her. i
“What is it? where’s my son? eak
sir?”.
He looked at her as she stood, lie 1 face
deathly pale, her eyes fixed search'll !
upon him, seemed to pierce him through.
Then he seemed to realize the full ex
tent of his crime, and for the first time
half regretted what he had done. Vot
affecting to be much exhausted, and with
well feigned grief, told her how her son
hail met his death by drowning, how he
had tried to rescue him, and that ho had
well-nigh lost his own life in trying to
save that of his young master-
One wild cry of anguish broke front I
her ashen lips, and she fell fainting on !
the floor.
Frank and Kathleen sitting in the par- j
lor, heard the cry as it rang out clear
and distil ot above the roar of tempesi
and both started to learn the cause.
Soon the entircTiou- 1 wld were collect- j
oil about the prostrate lady, in the great !
est exeiteiuont. Frank directed them to j
lift their mistress and bear her to her I
room, when leaving her in the care of her j
niece and (sorowing women, went out to j
despatch a boy for the family physician- j
Then hunting up Mike demanded the:
cause of this commotion, which that gem j
(lonian proceeded to relate as he had
done before.
Frank watched him closely the while
and more than half doubted what he said,
still he thought it wisest to keep lit*
doubts to himself for the present, inas
much as the earl being absent, MiW
might take a notion to leave.
In the meantime Lady Kinuemore had
regained consciousness ami was iudulgir’t
in the -wildest 'grief, givmg Veivelnirpeti
tiroly to her heart-rending sorrow. Li
vain Kathleen hung round her aunt en
deavoring to comfort her.
For two long hours they watched and
waited, when the physician arrived, and
was ushered at once into the presence of
the heart-broken invalid, whom he found
in a state ol great exhaustion from over
excitement and grief’. She idolized her
son, and it was feared that the paroxysm
of grief into which she had been thrown
might prove fatal in bringing on hemor
rhage of the lungs, of which she had had
slight attacks lately. After administer
ing some harmless, riuieting drops, the
old gentleman, who was a devout. Chris
tian, seating himself near the patient,
tried to reconcile her to her great loss,
and impressed upon her the obligation of
submitting quietly to the will of her
Maker, succeeded iu calming her passion
ate grief. Almost the* fame moment the
doctor arrived, old W’intcn, the fisher
man, reached the mansion, and asking
for Mr. Athlone, was cot fronted by that
gentleman, who came forward in nervous
haste, for he felt sure he had come with
tidings of tiic cause of their distress.
“lie has found poor Eugene’s body, I
suppose, ” he said -to himself, when the
servant, told him who waited to see him. |
• you have come to tell us about my poor
friend?” said Frank as ho offered bis
hand to Winton, while bis voice was !
husky with suppressed emotion
“ Yes.”
“You have found —” began Athlone,
sorrowfully, when the old man no longer
able to withhold the joyful tidings of t he
recovery of the young nobleman:
“Come, sir, cheer up! You have no
cause for this sorrow, but cause to rejoice,
i have brought you good news, your
friend is saved, and isno.w at my house.”
“ Saved? ” said Frank, with a half be
wildered expression- “You don't, mean
that, he lives?”
“ Yes, sir, he lives!”
With an exclamation of grateful sur
prise, lie grasped the old man’s hand and
wrung it cordially.
“In the name of his sorrowing mother,
[ thank you! This will, indeed, turn'her
night of mourning into a lay of rejoicing.
“You owe me no thanks. It was Katie :
that —”
“Katie? that child?”
“Yeff^eir."
But jgiaiik waited to hear no more, and
left the room arid ran swiftly up stairs. '
He "paused at the door of Lady Kinnc
niore’s room, and the low monotonous,
sound of the doctor’s voice as he read'
from the Bible, floated faintly out to him.
He tapped lightly at the door, the read
ing ceased, and presently the old gentle
man stood beside him. Frank drew him !
farther out into the hall that their whis
pers might not bo overheard. , ,
"Have you hoard anything moroW
asked the physician, noticing the pleaged
change in the young man’s countenance.
Frank told all the fisherman had said, and
requested the doctor to inform the
mother.
“I will gfo in and prepare her for (lie
sight of him. Poor soul, if she were not
a Christian, this blow would have beeu
Unbearable. I will tell her very cautious
ly, for sudden joys, like sudden grief's,
confound at first, you know,” said the
physician, as ho turned and re-entered
the room, and going to Lady Kinuemore
very calmly and quietly told her all. She
did not faint, nor scream, she had borne
the other, and she could bear this, and
dipping from her chair, glided down upon
tlio floor and silently rendered thanks to
heaven.
Frank hud returned in quest of Kutli
i Icon, whom ho found at last in a distant
| part of the building. She was sitting at
! a window, her at ms folded on the sill and
| her face hid upon them.
“Kathleen, my darling,” ho said ten
lerly, as ho gently laid his hand on her
j bowed head.
She threw aside his hand and rose up.
lb r hair has slipped from its fastenings
and had fallen down, a shining mass of
waving gold about her shoulders. There
, w . • not the least tremor in her voice
when she spoke.
‘Mr. Athlone, l came in here to be
alone, but since you have followed, I have
: a inquest to make, one you will not find
difficult to grant.”
lie merely bowed, and was silent.
“I hope you will acquit mo of any do
-.iru to act falsely, or deceive you, when I
mil you, that at the time I engaged tny
-lf to you, I did not know my own heart
I thought I had overcome uiy attach
in,mt for my first love, but 1 find I was
01-taken. 1 may as well tell you at once
that I do not love you. we can never be
more than friends, and ask you to cancel
l he engagomet.”
He was very white and belaid his hands
on the back of a ehair to steady himself,
yet. his voice was passionless as hers.
“May 1 ask the mime of—-of my for
tunate rival?"
Slip w ived her hand toward the lake:
“Those cruel waves with their hideous
, moans have just rocked him to his last
sleep.”
“There you mistake. 1 hud come to
tell you that he had escaped—that he Is
alive—iu a few minutes 1 will start to
'bring him home. Oh, Kathleen will you
not recousidcr?”
1 “My decision is final. But this is no
time to talk idly of what cannot be helped;
explain what you mean by escaped.”
“Did 1 not say he lives?”
Here u servant entered.
“If you please, sir, the gentleman
wants to see you, he says ’tis important. ”
“Come,” lie said to Kathleen, “and
you shall hear all."
“You left me so suddenly, sir, I didn’t
have time to say what I desired. That
was not an accident, it was murder,” said
Winton as Kathleen and Frank entered,
and to his astonished listeners told the
whole story, as Katie hud given it to
him.
Quick as possible Frank went to look
for Mike, hut no one knew where ho was.
In truth as soon as it became known
among the servants that Winton had
come, that villain had left with all speed;
not however without taking some articles
of value from his young master’s room.
Lady Kinuemore Had in the meantime
descended to the dining-room where she
was busy with her own hands filling a
basket with dainty sweet meats and bot
tles of old wirie.
“My poor biy, this will strengthen
him," sho said as she gave the servant
the basket and a roll of blankets. “Give
him what he requries and please mu,by
keeping the rest,” she said to Winton
with a grateful smile, who thanked her,
and he and Frank set out for the cottage.
Frank had cautioned Kathleen against
informing her aunt ot Mike s treacherous
deed, it was time enough yet to distress
her with that.
Kathleen’s last hope of ever gaining
the affections of her cousin died out when
she was told by Winton that his and (.tigh
ter had saved his lordship’s life. She had
thought that by her tenderness and lov
ing kindness to win him to her side,
when they told her he would upiin be
with them, but at the mention orKatie’s
name a fierce hatred sprang up in her
bosom for this child; she would rather he
had remained in those waters for all time,
than thatshe should have saved him.

The Drunkard’s Dream.
The following poem written by Rev
Charles W. Denison, and recited at tin
Armuchoe Academy, last Friday night
by Mr. John T. Kendrick, secured ti
: him the award of prize for|the host effor
in declamation:
Tho drunkard drowned of bis old retreat
Of his cosy place in the tap-room mint,*
And the liquor gleamed on his gloating eye,
Till his lips to the sparkling glass drew nigh.
He lifted It up wjt.h an eager glance,
And sang, as ho saw the bubbles dance;
“Aha! I am myself again!
Here’s a truce to care, an adieu to palm
Welcome the cup, with its creamy foam l
Farewell to work and a mopy homo!
With a jolly crew and ft flowing bowl,
In bar-room pleasures I love to roll! - ’
Like a flash, there came to the drunkard’s side
His angel child, who that night had died I
With look so gentle, and sweet and food,
Sho touched his glass with her little wand;
And oft as he raised it up to drink,
She silently tapped on its trembling brink,
j Till the drunkard shook from foot to crown,
And set the nntaated goblet down.
j “Hey, man Potted the host, “what meanetk this?
j Itj tho covey sick? ortho dram amiss?
| Cheer up, my lad! quick the bumper quaff!"
j And ho glared around wiHi allendiah laugh.
! The daunkard raised his glass once more,
| And looked at its depths as so oft before;
, But started to sec, on its pip tyred foam,
; The face of his dead UtHe ohild at home!
Then again tho landlord at him sneered,
j And the swaggering crowd of drunkards jeered ;
But still, as he tried that glass to drink.
The wand of his dead one tapped the brink!
! The landlord gasped: “I swear my man,
Thou shalt take every drop of this flowing can?’?
The drunkard bowed to the quivering brim,
Though his hea.tt beat fast and his eye grew dim.
But the wand struck harder than before;
The glass was flung to tho bar-room floor,
All around the ring the fragments lay,
And the poisonous ourrent rolled away.
The drunkard woke: His dream was gone;
His bed Wan bathed in the light of morn;
But he saw, as he shook with pale, cold fear,
A beautiful angel hovering near.
He r so, and that seraph was nigh hinvstill;
It checked his passion, it swayed Ills will,
it dashed from his lips the maddening bowl,
And victory gave to his ransomed soul!
Since ever that midnight hour he dreamed,
Our hero has been,a man redeemed.
And this is the prayer that he prays alvvay,
And this is tne prayer let us help him pray—
That angels may come, in every land,
To dash the cup from tho drunkard’s hand.
A lady correspondent writes to know
what nation fi.irni.dies the best domestic;
in reply to which wo say that although wo
aro not very well posted in such matters,
we feel that we can safely pronounce in
favor of our own country. Newark, New
Jersey, furnishes the best. They are
called the. “Light Running Domestic,”
and are to bo found at any office or agency
of the “Domeiiie” Sewing Machine
Company.
We understand there are. two daily
newspapers published in Rome, but as
they are still ‘young’ their fond ‘parents’
aro somewhat loth to let them vesture
out, for fear it will make them bow-legged
if they are allowed lo circulate ‘too soon’
without aid, and make it necessary to
buy a ,-eroll saw to cut their breeches
out with. However, time will strengthen
them and then they may be enabled to
‘spread abroad.’ The one bears the
name of the Bulletin, and the other the
News. Brethren let the little fellows
corne up and see us, we won’t Lite them,
and we’ll see that no one else imposes on
them.
