The Democrat. Vol. I. [Written for the Democrat.] Resurrection of Mrs. Jouas Jones, Colored. Not long ago, dame rumor said. That Mistress Jonas Jo.nes was dead ; That driving out to church one day. The horse took fright and ran away, The buggy smashed and scattered wide, And kicked poor Dinah so she died. But rumor with her thousand tongues Talks diverse ways, does many wrongs. True the buggy was sadly smashed, And Mrs. Jones much bruised and gashed, But Dinah’s time had not yet come, The Lord would not then call her home. The people at the church near by, Who heard the crash and then a cry, Ran to the spot, and there they found The sister prostrate on the ground. . She lay unconscious for a while, Her face illumined with a smile, When all at once she oped her eyes, Gazed first around, then tow’rd the skies, And said, “O why'nt yer let me ’lone,* I’d reached the gates, I seed the throne, And but for you, dat Tobe so fine, Dat harp and crown would now be mine, As Mrs. Jones was borne away. Back to her home that fatal day, She asked the church to pray that she Might soon get well and holier be ; That neither envy, hate nor pride Might thenceforth in her heart abide ; She said that she was done with wheels And horses too, that used their heels ; That after thia where e'er aho v.eai If clear across the continent, Over the peoples line she’d pad, Whether the road was good or bad. To everyone she’d be polite, Especially if they were white; And never for the road contend, Neither with strangers, foe nor friend. Dinah’s reform seems quite complete, She hopes that Tilden’ll take his seat, And says that Jones shall turn his coat, And with the Rads no longer vote. But now that she has gotten well, How she'll behave I cannot tell, But lest she should apostatize, (N. B.—This doctrine she denies.)

Two men sat in conversation. The.cool ing wind played gently with the short brown curls of the younger, while his handsome eyes and face were lighted by a bright, animated expression. “I can scarcely credit such good fortune. Are you sure there is no mistake ?” he said. "Perfectly; here are, the, documents. Prove your identity; prove to our satis¬ faction that you arc Ralph Hamilton, son of John Paul Hamilton, and you are a rich man. Can you prove it?” “I can, immediately. But this is indeed a welcome change ; to spring from deep poverty to such wealth in a moment, by the death of an unknown relative, seems almost incredible. I am grateful to you, Metcalf, for your pains in so soon seeking me ; also for your interest in my welfare. I have one favor only to ask in addition; that you remain silent about it. The fact of my changed circumstances need not be made known as yet. I shall not alter my style of living for awhile, but shall fulfill an en gagement to become the private tutor of two small boys residing, strange to relate, in the same place where lies this new tate. In taking the property, you say I am required to assume the name of its former owner. This I will do, after a few- months spent in the neighborhood as a poor teacher. I have met sad rebuffs during the days of my poverty, and I have no idea of being made a \ ictim of some fortune hunter, so I will win some good woman for love's sake, then settle down and enjoy myself.” * * # # * * In a beautiful residence sat two ladies Mrs. Corsair and her daughter Zoe, while a third, a nice of the elder lady, Blanche Gilmore, stood with a light hat in her hand, as though jurt returned from a walk. They were discussing the appearance of a new tutor who had undertaken for a time, on trial, theeducation of the two sons of the family, Charley, one of these boys, had just ‘ies, indeed ! exclaimed both young ladies, as they surveyed the fine figure and handsome face approaching; and when the y° vn R man smiled pleasantly upon Charley, Blanche thought she had never seen so handsome z man, while Zoe whispered : “If the young heir of the Beilmont property prove one-half as handsome I be content.” A splendid estate, with a residence of al| nost royal magnificence, lay within sight 0f their P rett y home, and had just, through tQ e death of old Mr - Beilmont, a childless "'dower, . passed into the hands of a young relative, expected soon to visit the premises, Zoe Corsair and her prudent mother had decided to appropiate both owner and estate * s 80011 as possible after his arrival. The now tutor, Mr. Hamilton, soon became a great favorite with his pupils Living as he Crawfordville, GeorgiA April G, 18 i i. didin the family, he soon became well acquainted with all, while he evidently admired the beautiful Zoe. who treated hint with cool politeness. Of Blanche he saw little She was only the poor relation, pending upon her uncle for support, there fore compelled to bear every imposition and caprice the worldly, selfish aunt and cousin fit to inflict.' Only little enjoyment was hcro i a seUtaty spot, a deep ravine wildly romantic and secluded, not far from her uncle's residence. Thither she went one beautiful afternoon, tripping along down the small winding path that led to the depths below. But suddenly she paused, a groan and faint call for help arresting her steps. Hastening to the spot where she judged the sufferer to bo, she saw a man lying at the foot of the ravine, motionless and now quite still., In a few moments she was beside him, and, on lifting his head from the ground, she found Mr. Hamilton, the tutor, un conscious. Runniug to the stream of water, she dipped in her handkerchief, and bathedjiis brow. At last lie opened his eyes, and gazed long and vacantly upon her. “Ah, yes, I remember, I did fall. I leaned over to pluck a flower, and lost my balance. But I feel better again, thanks to .you for your care, and I will see if I cannot rise.’’ “Lean on me, Mr. Itamiton, I think I can get you up the path, if it is steep, to the road, and from thence, after a rest home.” Slowly, yet surely, leaning on the young girl for that support he was so accustomed to give to others, he crept along, often stopping to rest, until at last the level road was gained, and from there his own room, to which a physician was soon summoned, and his Urn,> set Hint in discs attended to. Lying fees helpless upon his lied, the door partly open, to allow a circulation of air, the young man lay half dozing, when he acci¬ dentally heard, the following conversa¬ tion, not, o£ course, intended for his cars: “A pretty piece of work this,” said Mrs. Corsair, who was an intensely selfish woman. “Who is to play nurse now, I would like to know ?” “And to a miserable tutor, interrupted the eqully selfish Zoo. "I should be very glad to take charge of the poor young man, alone among strangers and sick,” said Blanche; “and if aunt is willing, 1 will devote my time to him.” "And neglect the sewing ? There is my wrapper not finished yet." » “Donotfear, aunt,” returned the same sweet voice; “I will finish that also. I can take iny sewing to his room and attend to both ; if not able to sew when he is awake. 1 will do it.at nigh, -g.-n Ivy ,’,, e.ps 4 ^ ^ “Very Weil, do a* 'yon please; but, re¬ member, that wnrpper must be finished." "Come, mother, don’t bother about him any longer. The carriage watts to take us to the concert. Come on.” Sosaying, the unfeeling Zoe swept down stairs, followed by her mother, while a soft voice murmured by the invalid’s side : “You arc not sleeping, 1 see. What shall I do for your relief?” “I feel quite comfortable, thank you, except a headache, caused by the sudden jar.” "Let me bathe it, then.” How soft her fingers, were ; how gentle her touch, and what a depth of womanly pity beamed from those large, brown eyes. About two weeks after the accident, Blanche wandered once more, to her favorite resort, and seating herself at the foot of the descent, she was soon lost in a deep reverie, “Tliis is a charming spot, Miss Blanche,” said a well known voice behind her, “and I see a favorite of yours. Now that I know how to avoid its dangers. I also am charmed with its deep repose and picrur esque beauty.” “I am glad you like it,” was the reply of the young lady, as she blushed slightly when he seated himself by her side. “But yours is the only face I have ever seen when here, and I cannot but wonder how you discovered the spot.” “One of my little pupils told me of it, and that day when I fell was my first visit, Thankful am I that you was in the habit of coming here, else I might have died alone and unmissed.” “Alone, I grant, but not unmissed for your pupils love you.” “j would like to tell you, dear Miss Blanche, how strongly attached I have become to my tender nurse, and how much I long for her to return my devoted affection. Dearest, can you love a person occupying so humble a position as tutor to your uncle’s children? If you can, and if you will allow me to present my deep love, and consent to become my wife, it will be the delight of my life to strive to make you happy.” Then he drew her toward him, and their lips met. No opposition was offered when Mr. Ham iltdn asked the hand of Blanche Gilmore from her uncle, all thinking that their poor that on tlie evening of his return a large party of friends and the select neighbors were to assemble to bid him welcome. This party, as it happened, was to take place the evening before the marriage of Blanche. Cards of invitation had been left at Mr. Corsair’s, and, much to the surprise and chagrin of Miss Zoe, Blanche was also remembered. “Just as if we wanted to introduce our poor relations,” she said, scornfully. “I wonder that the tutor also was not inclu ded.” The evening came, the rooms were thronged, but singular to remark, the young owner had not as yet made his appearance. The guests were received by his most intimate friend, Mr. and Mrs. Met calf, and the latter, as soon as Blanche and had been introduced, managed to draw her on one side, ml in another moment Zoe wondered, as he saw them leave the rooms together. About ln-|*n hour later all the guests had assemble. Mr. Metcalf said: “Ladies a •• gentlemen? Mr.BeUmont has just arrived.V .d la a few-minutes will be pleased i>~ -t you and introduce to all assembled V beautiful young lady wlu* to morrow u.ei g will become his bride. - ’ Scarcely ! 11 he done speaking when the young man ■•ivd the room with Blanche hanging up. his arm, her face radiant with bapt j> “Our h i- cor!" cried Mrs. Corsair. . “Imposed *" ”ied Zoe sinking in|i> a chair, ‘ ‘lt is true, madam,’’said the young _ man ; “ard -w let me hope to sec you all at our wrffi J ig • --- to-morrow." ----- " All v present except Zoe, whose disappoit in was too great to permit her to form on, of the wedding party.

The bearer was met half way by fee emigrants, and they held a parley with him. He then returned and reported that the emigrants would surrender their arms and do as they had been requested. The Mormon soldiers then marched out to within 200 yards of the emigrants. They next took the wagons and went to the camp and sta ted their orders. The emigrants then surrendered, and put their arms, the sick and the wounded and the children into the wagons. While they were burying their dead men, the emigrants burst into tears and said they feared treachery. As soon as the wagons were loaded the train started, The emigrants marched In single file, the women and the large children ahead ; then the men came.
