Penn’d a tender, soothing poem
On the “Rain upon the roof.
Once I read it, and it* beauty
Filled my heart with mem ries sweet;
Days of childhood flitted round me,
Violets sprang beneath mr feet:
And my gentle, loving mother
Spoke again in accent* mild.
Curbing every way ward passion
Os her happy, thoughtless child.
Then I heard the swallows twitt nng
Underneath the cabin eavea.
And the laughing shout of W Hue
Up among the maple leaves.
Then 1 blessed the poet's dreaming
Blessed his fancy warp and woof;
And 1 wept o’er memory's treasures.
As the rain fell on the roof.
Years ago I lost the poem.
But its sweetness lingers still.
As the freshness in the valley
Marks where flowed the spring time rilu
Lost to read, but not to feeling ;
Fur, the rain-drop Bever falls
O’er my head with pattering iquslc.
But it people* mem’ry's halls
With the old familiar faces.
Loved and treasured long ago;
Treasured now, as In life’s springtime.
For my heart no change can know.
And i live again my childhood.
In the home, far, far away;
Rojfhi the woodland, orc hard, Wildwood,
With my playmates, still at play.
Then my grey hairs press the pillow.
Holding all the world aloof.
Dreaming sweetly, as 1 listen
To the rain upon the roof.
Every pattering drop that falleth
fteometh likeau angel’s tread,
Bringing messages of mercy
To the wearv heart and head.
Pleasant thoughts of yeprs departed,
Pleasant southings for to-day ;
Earnest longing for to-morrow.
Honings for the far away ;
For I know each drop that falleth
Comes to hies* the thirst vjearth.
Making seed to hud and blossom,
ftpringing all things Into birth.
As the radiant bow, that acattereth
AH our faithlessness with proof
Os a seed-time and a harvest,
fto the rain upon the roof..
North St. Louis, June 4,18&7.
From the CkarleeUm G/urier. June 29.
Later From Havana, Key West and Cali
fornia.
The steamship Isabel, Captain Win. Rollins, ar
rived at this port yesterday morning, from Havana,
Tin Key West, having left those ports on the 25th
instant.
The news from Havana will be found in the fol
lowing letter from our regular correspondent:
The fleet from Spain -a line of battle ship, four
smaller sailing vessels, and two steamers—have
come to anehor in our harbor. At the time I write,
one P. M., they have not been saluted. It is still
rumored that the troops will go to Mexico.
Our city is quite healthy; some yellow fever
among the shipping, hut no sickness of any kind
among the people who live here.
Home fault having been found with Senor Julio
Darege, Managing Director of the Credit Afoldliere,
for having purchased the sugar estates mentioned
in one of my letters a short time since, that gen
llcmuu has established a joint stock company, with
a capital of five million dollars, called the Arztt
enrena, for the sole purpose of purchasing sugar
estates.
The IHario de la Marina published a statement
recently, estimating the an ount of specie intro
duced into this port, at twenty-seven million dol
lars during the present year. According to mv
careful calculation, the amount is nearer forty mil
lion dollars.
I perceive a paragraph going the rounds of the
American newspapers, which I believe was sent
from this city by the correspondent of a New Or
leans paper, that a cargo <>f slaves, seven hundred
ami fifty in number, had been landed at Sngua la
Grande, ft oin a vessel called the ** Duchess of
Sutherland.” This i* an error; no such cargo was
ever landed. The “ Duchess of Sutherland,” a
Scotch vessel, is now on her pussage from Eng
land, with a cargo of coal!
From th* M< mphix Appeal, June 20.
Public Kxcitcincnt.
Our community has justly been highly indignant
and excited in consequence of the murder in open
day, in front of one of our principal hotels, of a
wed-known oitizojt by the hands of John Able, a
man notorious as a gambler, without provocation
or cause, as is alleged by the persons present. Mr.
J. Kverson, the victim of this diabolical outrage,
was engaged in conversation with Able about i
business, when the latter drew a repeater and J
shot turn through the heart, producing iustant ,
death. Such an act, added to the reoolWatum «*t' ;
other crimes of recent occurrence, aroused the 1
whole community to the importance of taking
some step to prevent the recurrence of these tla
grant crimes.
A meeting was accordingly held in the Court
room, in Kx« liange Building, on Wednesday night,
which whs attended by the largest crowd that pro
bably ever assembled in our city, composed of citi
zens alone. A jury ol thirty-six—six j»eisons from
each ward, and composed of substantial citizens—
was selected to hear evidence, nud recommend ac
tion to the meeting. After examining witnesses
and deliberating upon the case, the committee re
turned and reported dial there could be no doubt
of the guilt id Able, of murder m the first degree,
and that * lie case was so clear that a Court anil
Jury would undoubtedly so find. A majority of
them, therefore, recoin mended that the meeting
take d>» action further than to submit the cause to
the regular tribunal of the laws.
The meeting also passed the two following reso
lutions, bv a unanimous vote;
iitwloed. That a committee of three bcappointed
to notify Joe Able to leave th© county of Shelby
before twelve o’clock to-morrow, never to return.
lirxo/ttd. That all gamblers be ordered to leave
this city in ten davs from this time, and if they
fail to do so, they will be compelled to depart,
p. u eutdy it posable, forcibly if necessary ; and
that gaming houses be no longer tolerated in this
city.
M ssrs. J. O. Greenlaw, F. H. Clark, and Bed
ford Fun i s', were appointed a committee to notify
Joe Able of the first resolution; a duty which, we
learn, they have dischaiged, by leaving a note, to
that effect, at. his house. Another meeting will be
held, at Exchange building, at eight o’clock this
evening.
A Midmout Apparition.'—ln Wisconsn, in the
midst of the terrible storm which prevailed on the
night of Saturday, some of the residents on the
line of ihe Beloit und Madison railroad heard, at
nmimght, the very unusual sound of a railway
tram thundering along the track. Many sprang
from their beds, and the lightning revealed to
their astonished eyes glimpses of a baggage car
and two passenger curs rushing by without loco
motive or tender, and not a soul to be seen on
board. Occurring at the time when the fierce
storm, with its koavy thunder und lurid lighlning
was prevailing, the event assumed to many minds
a supernatural character, and there were those
even who longed for the day to come, with tremb
ling hearts, for all must be aware that superstitiou
and er* dulilv are not yet banished from the earth.
It was just the night for such a thing to happen, ac
cording to all the established rules laid down for
ghosts ami demon-, to indulge their fearful revels.
lu the morning, a locomotive containing an en
gineer and conductor, came quietly by, and the
people b urned that the cars they had seen were
nothing more nor less than runaways. They had
been standing on the track at Fortville ; the high
wind had started them ; as they were on a down
grade, all attempt to slop them, after they had got
under way, was useless; and 80 they went rushing
along the inclined rails with gradually accelerat
ing speed, nil several miles distant, coming upon
a level, the force of their forward motion was ex
hausted, and they brought up at Alton, 'where the
conductor found them uninjured. A very good
ghost story was thus spoiled.— Exchange.
We have but little time, or space for comment,
and we therefore refer the anxious reader to the
proceedings of the Convention on Friday, for in
formation in regard to its final action, and the cir
cumstances ami inti nonces attending the nomina
tion of the Hon. Joseph Brown, as the bearer of
the democratic standard in the gubernatorial con
test. Already, and ere we had resumed our post,
the name of our gallant leader was placed at the
4i maat head” of the “ Examiner there to remain
until victory shall once more establish the invinci
bility of the Georgia Democracy, and until we
once” more shall record the triumph of Democratic
principles! In the mean time, to promote this,
we shall do our duty fearlessly, as we doubt not
all will, whose preferences, as* they were iu the
Convention, in the first place, were divided be
tween the distinguished gentlemen who were bal
loted tor by their respective friends. More we are
debarred from now saying, and we shall therefore
close this brief notice, 'with remarking to our
friends at a distance, that in Joseph E. Brown, the
Democracy have a leader, who will not only uphold
their standard gallantly, but who will, in every
contest, defend their principles with an ability and
success ot which every Democrat will have just
reason to be proud. We know, and have long
known the man, and “we write that which ice do
knout." — Atlanta Examiner , June 29.
Xgg- A correspondent of the New Orleans Pica
yune, writing from Baltimore, June 17th, says:
** I had the pleasure to-day, for the first time, of
seeing and conversing with Wm. Morton, the
steadfast, faithful friend of Dr. Kane, who accom
panied him in bis long, dreary night of Arctic ex
ploration. I could not but look upon this honest,
true-hearted son of Erin with a degree of pride
and satisfaction. He clung to the great explorer
Hjlth more than a brother’s affection—was with
him amid the crashing ice of the Arctic seas,
through its long, desolate, gloomy night—suffered
there toil, hardship, and fatigue—then followed
him as a companion and attendant to the sunny
South ; closed his eyes in death, and accompanied
the lifeless remains—far as man could go—to the
portals of the grave : dropped a silent tear to his
memory, and bade farewell to all but hallowed
memories, which still live with Morton, fresh as
the ever-green laurel. There are few Mortons in
the world.
“ It did me good, also, to look upon * Etah,’ the
Lapland dog, brought home by the immortal ex
plorer, which accompanies Morton. This animal
is white, has the features of a wolf, though docile
and pleasant. I asked Morton what value he put
upon him. He said : ‘ You might saw off my leg
and take it, before I would part with this dog. He
has seen me through many a weary journey, and if
I live, I shall see him cared for in life and res
pected in death.’ ”
Speech by a Max One Hundred and Seventeen
Years op Age.—The early settlers of Wisconsin
have recently been having a good time at Madison
in that State. The Madison Journal gives a report
of the remarks of Joseph Creme, said to be one
hundred and sevnnteen years of ago. The speech
was spoiled by the fine touches of the reporter, who
made the old man talk in polished sentences. It
would have been infinitely better had his own sim
ple words been given, lie said:
“ A native of Detroit, I was partly raised at. Kas
kaskia and Prairie du Roche, in Illinois, and sub
sequently became an inhabitant of St. Ixmis under
Spanish rule, and for many years in the last cen
tury was engaged as a voyage ur between St. Louis
and Prairie au Chien, and Prairie du Cbien, via
Wisconsin and Fox rivers and Mackinaw. I was in
1814, a participant with the Americans in the con
flict at Prairie du Chien, and served as an excess
carrier in the Black Hawk war where a companion
was shot dead by my side by the stealthy Indians
in ambuscade; being myself a Frenchman, and
my wife related to the Indians, I have reason to
believe I was purposely spared. Forty-one years
ago I located at Wisconsin Portage, and nearly a
third of a century since 1 was a mail carrier be
tween Mineral Point and Green Bay. It has fall
en to my lot to live successively in the same coun
try under French, British, Spanish and American
governments.”
Mr. Witcher’s Death.—Dr. I). 11. Witcher, who
was shot by his son, an account of which we gave
in our Thursday morning’s paper, died ou Friday
night at 11 o’clock.
No intelligence has yet been received of the’mur
derer. He is a young man about eighteen years of
age, about five feet four or five inches high, weigh
ing about one hundred und fifty pounds ; should
ers broad ; hair sandy, inclined to red, straight
and long ; face broad, slightly freckled. He had
on when he escaped a blue cloth coat, light colored
cassiniere pants and black gaiter shoes. We know
not what efforts are being made for his apprehen
sion. Ho horrid a crime us purrucide should not
be sufferred to go unpunished.

Cincinnati , Ohio.
ritlXG undersigned, manufacturer and sole proprietor of the
A. above brand of WHISKY, would respectfully inform his
customers and purchasers of this celebrated brand, tliat there has
appeared in the Charleston ami other Southern markets a coun
terfeit of the above Whisky, being a poisonous imitation, brand
ed similar to his brand ; it passes under the name of S. N. Dike’s
Magnolia Whisky, Cincinnati, Ohio, and other names similar to
S. N. Pike. As there is no party in this city of the name of S.
N. Dike, it is intended to impose and deceive those who would
purchase the genuine brand. 1 make this statement to put par
ties on their guard, as there are several persons in the East and
West making au imitation, and using my name with a slight al
teration. 1 have analysed several samples of this counterfeit
brand, and found that it contains a deadly poison; this fact
alone impels me to caution the public, protect those who are lia
ble to be deceived, and prevent the evil results attending the
use of this poisonous imitation. 1 also hereby caution the couc
tenViters ot my brand that I will prosecute them to the full ex
tent of the law. The genuine ft. N. PIKE’S MAGNOLIA
WHISKY is distilled from the best qualities of rye and corn,

A SPECULATION
VFTER four years'experiment, the undersigned has sue
seeded in Perfecting a piece of mechanism, for Shelling
Com, which embraces the following characteristics:
Ist—Cheapness. It costs less than any other machine.
2d—Efficiency. It shells even’ description, from Pop to the
Great Western Com, removing from the cob green, damp, wet
or dry corn, with equal fid ity, without the least injury to the
genu or even any disturbance of tiie chit < r cavity in which it
grew . Tb'_- only plan for shelling Corn for seed, shelling the
middle and best for that purpose.
3d—Economy of Power. We challenge the world for ease
and rapidity of band working. A boy twelve years old, or
even a woman, can shell one hundred bushels per day with
all ease, and without the least fatigue, using the hand or foot
'Fhe machine wofks automically, self-feeding and discharg
ing. depositing the com perfectly clean in a bag or box, and the
cobs unbroken,and entirely stripped of every kernel 1 (however
small) in a bag or basket.
4th—Universal adaptation. It occupies about the space of a
barrel of flour, weighs about twenty-five pounds; is simple In
construction—light, durable. No liability to get out of order,
and will last a life time. Although a hand machine, it is also
adapted to dog, horse or steam power.
6th—A new principle. The method of shelling is entirely
new and unique, never before applied to this purpose, and yet
so simple as to excite at the first glance pleasure and admiration
»t thi wonderful skill and ingenuity that are displayed.
'* he object we have in view is to sadl the exclusive right to
this magnificent monopoly lor .States and Territories of all the
United States.
Here is a wider field for a lucrative investment than has tieen
presented during thi- century. We invite the most rigid scruti
ny. and the severe st investigation, and challenge the mostskep
tieal to a severe examination. The result will be a more than
confirm t ion of *ll the preceding facts, and the parties will
leave with a full conviction that here is a speculation of no ordi
nary magnitude, and a certain heavy return for amount* invest
