SARAH’S YOUNG MEN. Sarah Blake was neither very young uor verv beautiful, hut her father owned the hist and biggest farm in Ilorlev.atid being "iily child site was accounted an eligible match in thrifty circles. Dick Sanders and Ted Brant were rival suitors fur her hand. Site had but to say the word which one of them she’d have; but it was just tlmt that made her hesitate—there was so little choice between them. Such delays are always dangerous. While Surah wavered, uncertain which to hold and which to letg<>, both at once of Iter captives slipped the leash. They might have pleaded that they had done no worse than others. For, when Jenny Allen’s father came with his beautiful daughter to dwell in ll<>r ley, there was a general flocking of the swains about, tlie shrine of the new idol, and Ted and Dick only followed the rest. But Sarah Blake was not a woman to view a lover's defection lightly, nor did it weaken her resentment to divide it be tween two She bad quite enough for both ; and it being uncertain which of them she would have chosen, in meting out her anger, she gave each the disad vantage of the douht. Jenny Allen was civil and polite to all without showing a preference to any. Dick Sanders and Ted Brant were fore most among her admirers. Indeed, the others stood n good deal in awe of them and hung back, for they were a pair of churlish, brawny chaps, little inclined to brook competition and whose ill-will few cared to court. Between themselves the question of which should yield was fast reaching a point where ils settlement bv “ wager of battle ” seemed inevitable, when things took a turn which put a new face oil afftirs. Will Harvey came from town to spend the summer vacation at an aunt’s in Hurley. One day while sauntering, rod in hand, tilling the charming little river that wound through the valley, Will unex pectedly eame on something that drove fishing out of his head. On a mos.v hank, shaded bv over hanging boughs, silt a young girl deep in the pages of a rhook. Her profile, which was towards him, presented a con tour so perfect that it would have defied the sculptor’s art to reproduce it. The shower of glossv ringlets which fell up on the matchless neck and shoulders stole anew tinge from every shifting glimmer of light sifted through the un dulating leaves. Her cheek would pale and flush and her eves flash and melt bv turns with the varied emotions call ed no hv what she read. Will Harvey would have gladly re mained a silent spectator of a sight so lovely, but lie felt he had no right to do So. Advancing in a manner to attract the irirl’s attention he raised his hat and asked some commonplace questions about certain localities in the neighborhood. These answered, in a voice so rich and musical that every tone mad: his heart flutter, he found more things to ask about, till bv degrees a conversation sprung up which lasted till the young lady, suddenly remembering how long it had continued, with a blush caught up her gvpsv hat, hade him a pleasant good day and tripped away lightly. Thus began theacqnaintan<e of Will Harvey and Jenny Allen. But it was not likelv to end there. For Will Har vey’s first stolen glimpse of Jernv set rled her title, in his eves, to he called the loveliest creature in the world, and it is quite as certain that her first im pressions of the handsome stranger were hardly less exalted. A formal introduction followed, and in a little time Will and Jenny were so constantly together that the rural gos sips begun to talk of their engagement as a thing quite settled. This was wormwood to Dick Sanders and Ted Brant. They began to look askance at Will Harvey, and were only restrained from picking an open quar rel with him by reflecting that he was a trim-built, wirv fellow who mightn’t be to easily handled, to say nothing of the plucky look there was in his keen, dark eyes. One day Dick, at the turn of the lane down which he was strolling, sulking as usual over his bad fortune, was met by Sarah Blake. He felt awkward and confused. Sa rah had a valorous tongue and he had no ground to expect mercy. To his sur prise, however, she met his clumsy greet ing graciously, for the time disposed, ap parently, to forget past grievances. “I’ve news,” she said; “news you’d give a deal to know.” “What is it, Sally?” he asked coax inglv. “Oh, never mind.” “ Come, Sally, for old ocquaintance’s sakp?” Was it a smile or a scowl she nave him then? Dick wasn’t sure, and was begin ning to tremble again when Sarah re sumed her gracious mien. “ Well, seeing it’s you,” she said, “ I dou’t mind telling. Jenny Alien is go ing to elope with Will Harvey to-night. HARTWELL, GA., WEDNESDAY JUNE 25. 1870. He’s t<i be at her father’s back garden gate at l’J o’clock, bis flute covered w ith a blank mask. When he gives a low whistle thrice repeated, she’* to come out and then they’ll flit together. Here are all the details in a note in her own hand, which I picked up after seeing it drop from Will Harvey’s pocket as he can tered down the road half an hour since. Read for yourself.” Dick ground his teeth as his eyes ran over the lines which confirmed every word of Sarah's statement. “What are you going to do?” asked Sarah with a provoking coolness that roused Dick’s fury. “Do!” he growled. “I’d pommel the villain if I could only lay hands on him !’’ “ I can put vou on a better plan.” “ What is it?” “ Disguise yourself as the letter indi cates. Be on the sjxit a little before the time. Give the concerted signal, and when the lady comes flit with her your self. Ten to one, when she sees the trap she’s in, she’ll marry you to avoid exposure. At any rate, you’ll earn her father’s gratitude by thwarting Harvey’s plot.” “ But suppose Harvey, too, comes be fore the time and we meet at the gate?" “Knock him down, heat him sense less, give the signal and get away with the prize before he comes to.” “I'll doit!" cried Dick, his eves flash ing fiercely. “Goodbye, Sally; I'll have lie vs for you when we next meet!” It lacked a quarter of 12 when I)i< k Sanders, his face masked, stole up to Mr. Allen’s garden gate. At the same mo ment a man similarly disguised ap proached by another path. For nil in stant the pair confronted each other. They both sprang forward, striking out with might and main. Blows rained thick and fast. The combatants were well matched. After a mutual hammer ing for ten minutes, without advantage to either side, they grappled and went down together. Then they scuffled and bit and scratched till they rolled apart from sheer exhaustion and lay glaring at each other in helpless rage. Both of their masks were torn to tatters, and us the bright moonlight boomed down upon, their battered faces each uttered an ex clamation of surprise. “Ted Brant!” panted the one. “ Dick Sanders !” gasped the other. “I thought it was that scoundrel Har vey !” replied Dick. “So did I!” rejoined Ted. A brief comparison of notes disclosed that Sarah Blake, after her interview with Dick, had had a similar one with Ted ; the result being as above narrated, a desperate encounter, in which each thought he was pommeling away at Will Harvey. The note, we need hardly say, was amiable Sarah’s own produc tion. Before Dick and Ted were present able again, Will Harvey and Jenny Al len were happily married with the full consent of the latter’s father, who, in deed, had never opposed the match. Sarah Blake is still a maiden. Cavalry Against Infantry. Colonel Dakin, commanding one of the six volunteer regiments which were raised in Louisiana to serve during the war with Mexico, was a strict and capa ble disciplinarian, and in a short time his regiment excited the admiration of even veteran officers, by the ease and precis ion with which it drilled and maneuver ed. One morning the regiment was drawn up and the men were standing at ease after n variety of marches and charges, and evolutions, when the colonel took it into his head to put their discipline to a stronger test. The regiment was thrown into a square to receive cavalry. The commander rode off a few yards, and then, wheeling his horse, came down, sword in hand, at a fierce gallop, straight at his men. He and his steed formed an imposing object, for he was a big man and his steed a big horse, and neither appeared to fear the glistening and brist ling bayonets against which they were rushing. The men stood the charge very well until the horse and rider were within a few feet; then they broke right and left in confusion, and opened a pas sage for the “ cavalry ” into their ranks. Of course the colonel was wroth, and the way the officers and men caught it for a few minutes was by no means agreeable to their feelings. “ You repel cavalry 1 Why, what would you have done if a thousand dra goons had charged upon you as I did?” “ Well, just try us again, colonel, and see if we don’t hurt your feelings,” cried a number of disci unfitted volunteers. The same again formed. Off rode the colonel, round lie wheeled, and down again he came at full speed, dashing straight at the bayonets, and looking as if he would crush the line into powder under liis charger’s heels. The bayonets wavered not, though the horse came faster and faster, and finally, with a ter rible bound, sprang at the square. The square stood the shock, and the next moment the horse was stretched on the ground, with a broken bayonet in his side, and his limbs quivering in the death agony, while the stout rider lay with his Devoted to Hart County. In a book just issued in this city, entitled “ The Final Theology," wefind the extreme limit of religious thought. The author is, we believe, a Unitarian clergyman, hut his boldness of speech is something that will surprise even the ministers of that denomination, liberal and free-thinking as they usually are. The method he brings to the interpre tation of the New Testament is logical, historic and critical, and it will require something more than the cry of “ blas phemy” (which no doubt will he the answer used by many) to overthrow his arguments. The hook must at least command the respectful attention of readers, and it suggests a wide field for thought and study. “Strike but hear me ” was the reply that Themis tweles made to an ancient Greek who tfueatoned to kill him ; and this must always be the plea of the liberal scholar —a plea which scholars of all schools will recognize. "Tin the “Final Theology,” the author the Rev. Leicester A. Sawyer, holds that “Jesus was a man only—born, educated, gaining and communicating knowledge, like other men and possess ing only the faculties and powers proper to man, without any superhuman aid. beyond what all men may obtain. 11 is superiority to his generation is like that of Socrates, Aristotle, Alexander and Julius Ciesar, the consequence of his own wise use of his powers and op portunities and of superior advantages of education, turned to the Lest ac count.” Of the time and place of his birth and parentage our author holds that no authentic record has been pre served, but in place of this we are treated to fictions; that from his works and genius we are led to believe that he was the son of a Jewish mother by a Greek or Roman father, his father probably being a proselyte to Judaism and both of his parents being well-ed ucated and in good circumstances. In regard to fiis education, it is held that Jesus was liberally educated both in Hebrew and Greek learning, and ap plied successfully the logic of Aristotle and Euclid to the solution of the enig mas of history, both among the Greeks and Hebrews, proving himself in these respects the “boldest and most original thinker of antiquity.” Completing his education before he was thirty, he chose the vocation of a teacher, like Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Euclid. He de vised a scheme of universal culture, establishing congregations to meet for instruction on the first day of every week and schools to he taught on all other days for the instruction of teach ers to preside over public assemblies, and other literati. Claiming no super human power, he was, however, master of the medical art as it was practised by the Greeks, and taught in the same school. This was sufficient to enable j him and his scholars to perform cures which tiie ignorance and superstition ! of that age deemed miraculous, and J which were “commemorated by the ex-1 aggerations and inventions of the gos pels.” It is insisted by the author of the “Final Theology,” that Jesus left no theology at his deaih, and that none of his first twelve disciples left any mark there—since Peter and the most of his colleagues “ went back entirely to Ju daism.” Mr. Sawyer insists, and with almost unanswerable force, that Paul was the real author of what is known as Christianity, his scheme now govern ing the churches and being wholly dif ferent from anything that .Jesus (whom he hail never seen) intended to teach. Five letters of Paul, our author holds, is all that there is genuine in the New Testament, all the rest being fictions and forgeries intended to counteract the strange fact that contemporaneous history makes no mention whatever of the lite, death and sayings of Jesus. There was a demand for suoh literature subsequently, and it was furnished by pious literary bigots. History abounds in pious frauds. They have been oon- foot and knee caught, and himself un able to rise. Not a man moved, the square was silent, steady and unbroken, iu another moment the colonel was on his feet. He replaced his sword in the scabbard, looked gravely and eoollv at th&deud horse, then at the firm array j of 4ldi era, ami said, iu his quiet way : “Wery well done, boys; both the horse and the square did their duty. Non you are ready for the lancers." The men gave three cheers uud a Lotri*siaua “ tiger.” Progress of Religious Thought. X. r. Hebrew Leader. During late years, a great advance has been made in religious criticism, and tnen have sought the truth without fear of being called evil names instead of being met by argument. It is only by such means that the entire and ex act truth of our condition and duty here on earth will finally become known to us, and it is incumbent upon ns, there fore to listen to all thAt reputable seltol- to sav, and to give them a fair and nnpredjndiced hearing. The truth wijl never hurt anybody, and we need therefore have no fears of what is writ ten and said by scholars. 81.50 Per Annum.

But the com pilers have always forgotten the time honored axiom that the truth is mighty and will prevail. Wo have devoted this space to Mr. Sawyers volume, liecause it is in itself a remarkable proof of the advance of religious thought, ami liecausc it evinces profound scholarship and the courage of conviction. As it is never our prac tice to indulge in controversy, we do not j propose to say anything further than , that we welcome it as a tribute to the l foundation truth to which Judaism has 1 liorne witness In all ages and at all times that " the Lord our God is one God.” The benefit of all such ttooks is tliat they provoke discussion among modern religionists, and this is sure to lead people back to tlie sound and un answerable truths of antiquity. Intri | cate creeds cannot stand tlie full, pen i etrnting light of modern knowledge, and the same light will destroy religious frauds. Tlie world is the gainer in \ every man who dareß to strike a stout blow for the progress of religious thought. The Trial of llill. Qrijln Hun. The trial of Sam Hill for the murder of John Simmons has taken up a good part of last week in Atlanta and is not yet ended. The evidence is positive that Simmons, if not others, had in vaded the sanctity of Hill's marital re lations and added insult to the injury by boasting of the fact. Hill’s wife is but a young, vain, foolish mid pretty woman who had been reared by kind parents and taught the proprieties as well as the religion of life. Her hus band doted on her and eared for and treated her kindly and even now lias not discarded her. Simmons was what is termed a very clever young man and we knew him personally as no worse than a great many who are highly re spected in every community. But he did that which he would not have tol erated in any other man were he him self concerned, and he has reaped the I consequences. We would not encour age the taking of life nor the doing of crime in any of its forms through the medium of our paper but, may God forgive ns if we say wrong, when we say that there was no other redress for Hill and, from the standpoint of a nat ural man, we feel that he shot Simmons in defense of not only his own dearest rights but the sacred rights of every other man. Some men could bear the shame and disgrace and live, crucified by boastful taunts of him who had wronged, and that would he Godlike and eminently celestial, nevertheless were we the deceased ourself and could speak our sentiments we would say Hill killed us in a just cause. Every man who does as Simmons did, does it with the understanding of the conse quences in case of exposure and would have a supreme contempt for any man who did not resent the insult to the death. We hope from the bottom of our heart that llill will lie acquitted for, whatever were the palliating cir cumstances in Simmons favor, he can not, be benefitted by the punishment of Hill and on the other hand, the convic tion of Hill would be an invitation for a further invasion of the borne sancti ty. Hill’s portion is worse than death already and no verdict can heal the wounds inflicted upon his pride nnd honor and life. He did just what Sim mons would have done and wlmt every other man ought to do under the cir cumstances unless he be restrained bv the love of Go 1 and actuated by true Christian humility. So far as human law is concerned, with all the evils of our own past life before us, we cannot refrain from the belief and we have always entertained it that such laws are at best impotent and a mockery. Let every man rely upon himself for the protection of his honor in such cases, and if lie falls he will fall in the dear est cause known to the unregenerate man. In probably any other case the law of the land is sufficient. A wooden watch, said to be an ex crdlent time keeper, is the property of N. Devoit, of Bristol, Tennessee. It weighs but half an ounce. The dial plate is made from the horn of a bnffa lo killed by a locomotive on the Texas Pacific Railroad. The outside is made of olive wool from Jerusalem. The works, except a few of the most impor tant, are of boxwood. Even the stem and how are of wood.

Th* K ajm* and Murder nf a Girl, and thr Miiui>inr,v Vr.iifcam-e Wrtrkfd t'pon Iho t'rlniiniil fcjr tlie Outraged Public. Charleston, S. C'., Jane 17—A ape eial disputcli to tlie News and Courier, from Spartanburg, to-day suys that at about 12 o'clock last night a body of one hundred ami fifty armed men cuter ,-d that town on horseback and proceed ed to the jail, where they demanded Jofin Moore, a prisouer committed for the out rage and murder of Miss Woodward ou the sth instant. Sheriff Thompson hav ing been warned that an attempt would lie made to lynch the prisoner, they hail removed him to the Air-Line railroad, about one mde from town, intending to Gourd the northern bound train and reach Columbia ; but he had lieen watch ed, and before the train arrived the lynchers secured Moore and took him to the scene of the murder, near Wellord, 12 miles distant, w here they said they would hang him ot 10 o'clock, this morning. Moore aud his victim were both white. Spttial to the Atlanta Conetitutbm. Wklfokd, S- C\, June L 8 par ticulars of the murder of Muss Fannie Woodward and theexet ution of her sup posed murderer, John Moore, near here, are ills>>t ns follows: On Thurs day, June sth, while Miss Woodward was on her way from Pickens county to the house of a relative, she had occasion to . all at the bouse of John Moore, a. man of notoriously bad character, (which was totally unknown t< her), making in quiries as to the route to the house of her uncle. Dinner being ready she was invited to dinner which she accepted and paid for. As she was ready to resume Iter journey, Moore proposed to show her the nearest way tt> the road to her relative's house. She told him that it was unnecessary, as she was able to find the way. bat lie accompanied her never theless. Shortly after he was seen in a terrible state of excitement. On Sun day the body was found within one hun dred yards of where Moore acknowl edged to have left her. Trial Justice Gaston hastily etnpan neled a coroner’s jury. An inquest and post-mortem was held on Monday, re vealing the fact that an outrage had been committed on her person before she was murdered. She was shot t hrough the right side of the chest and her throat cut from car to car. Evi deuces of a terrible scuffle between the murderer and his victim were plain ly to be seen, showing conclusively that site had made a desperate effort to pro tect her honor, but Moore being a man of great muscular power, she was i>ow erless in his hands. The remains of Miss Woodward were interred in a country grave-yard near by. On Tues day Moore was arrested and confined in jail, until lie was taken out to Chin quapin trestle, where tlie mob captured him ami brought him to the scene of the murder, it was announced that he would be hanged at ten o’clock to-day. Shortly after 7 o’clock this morning a lawyer by the name of Woodward made a speech to the large assemblage in Moore’s behalf, pleading with them to turn him over to the law to be dealt with according to the forms of law. Fearing that his speech might excite sympathy in the hearts of the majority it was decided to hang him two hours earlier. A rope was suspended from the limb of a post-oak, within 400 yards of Moore's house and within 200 yards of where Miss Woodward was found, fastened around his neck, and convert ing a buggy into a scaffold it was drawn out from under Moore, and at eight o’- dock tlie fatal drop was given. After hanging one hour lie was pronounced dead and the body cut down and turn ed over to his family, who were present witnessing the execution. He will be buried to-morrow, Moore made no confession, but protested his innocence to the last. An Impossibility. “ There were two men got into a fighC in front of the store to-day,” said a North end man at the supper table, “ and I tell you it looked pretty hard for one of tiiem. The bigger one grab bed a cart stake and drew it back. I thought snre he was going to knock the other's brains out,, and I jumped in be tween them.” The family had listened with rapt at tention, and as the head paused in his narrative the young heir, whose respect for his father’s bravery was immeasur able. proudly remarked : “ lie couldn’t knock any brains out of you, could he, father?” The head of the family gazed long and earnestly' at the heir, as if to de tect evidences of a dawning humorist, hut as the youth continued with great innocence to inunch his fourth tart, he gasped and resumed his supper. A North Carolina man got tired of life, and went out in the stable and liung himself with a blind bridle. Just as lie was about bringing his last gasp, a neighbor opportunely passed, and seeing his peril promptly out him down. Ah, said tie would-be suicide, why didn’t you let ine alone, in two minutes I’d been in heaven. Yes, dryly remarked the other, you and play thunder in heaven with a blind bridle on ? Carrol! County Times: Our friend, W. O. Berry, had a calf born on his place the other day, with a swallow fork in eacli ear, which happens to be his mark. Another remarkable tiling about this remarkable calf, is, that its father and mother are both exactly the same age—each being two years and one week old
