DAWSON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER $4, 1878 Only a Shower. Ben Butler on his platform stood, And o’er its planks he strode, His war like voice, was still for blood, His eves like balefires glowed. He looked upon the pines of Maine, And joy was in his breast: “That was but the summer rain, The storm comes from the West.” Across the Alleghany range He threw his larboard eye: “The angry people want a change, The’yll get it by and by.” His other eve on Boston town Dropped like a Parrot shell: “ 1 t’s Beacon street shall be thrown down Its dovecots fluttered well ” The Western breeze blew soft and mild, Clear was the Western skv: “Where is the feniptest fierce and wild, That filled my eager eye 1 ?” The Greenback party’s Western vote Was, like its money, flat: “And is it thus onr stock they quote, And have we dropped to that?” In vain the Greenback siren sings, Bluster and brass are vain: “The Boston buzzards flaptlieir wings, And whet their breaks again.” Ben Butler on his platform stands, But weak are voice and limb; Storm signals flutter in his hands, His eyes are dull and dim. The Press at Large. The number of deaths by yellow fever in New Orleans up to date is 3,549. The total number of deaths in the fever stricken district is between ten and eleven thousand. A dispatch announces the death of A E. Cronan, of Oregon, who will be remembered as the man who claimed the right to cast one electorial vote from bis State for Tilden. Senator Bayard is accredited with saying that in his opinion there will be three Presidential candidates in the field in 1880—the Republican, Demo crat and Greenback candidates. It is possible, too, that the House of Repre sentatives may be called upon to elect the next President. Rev. Mr. De La Matyr, who lias just been elected to Congress on a Greenback Labor ticket in Indiana, formerly belonged to the Methodist Conference in Western New York. The authorities of the conference to Wi.ich he now belongs notified him some time ago that he must choose between poli tics and the pulpit, and refused to give him an appointment until be hail forsa ken the former. He has heretofore been a Republican A New York letter says; “The dry goods trade is not looking healthy. Cotton goods are especially pressed for sale by manufactures at ten days time at a discount of 2@2i per cent The usual time allowed is sixty days, open account, without note, but manufactur ers are now asking for ten-days settle ments at a liberal concession Either a want of eash or fear of difficulties in the near future is notable in this action on the part of producers.” Beast Butler is working very hard in his campaign. He delivers a speech every day, and often two speeci.es in a day, besides doing a deal of underground work. The October elections have ren dered hard work, a still greater neces sity for him than it was betore. 1 lie small Greenback Labor vote in the West has greatly discouraged the Greenbackers in Massachusetts. They see the movement is not a “tidal wave.” The immigration statistics for Sep tember show that 8,955 persons came to this country, arriving at New Yolk, to permanently reside among us. <>f the number, the greatest single factor is the German immigration, that alone amounting to 2,428. England follows with 2,077 and Ireland is third with 1,415. For the three months closing September 30th, the immigration was 25,263, against 20,109 during the cor responding season last year. In the present Congres the Republi cans have a majority of three in the State delegations, Florida . eing a tie. As tar as the new Congressmen have been chosen —and allowing to the Re publicans all the doubtful States which are yet to hold their elections—this majority is overturned, and the Demo crats, on a vote of States, will have 22 to 16 for the Republicans. Probably this fact has been overlooked bv the regulation organs when they have at tempted to put on a smiling countenance over the recent elections. It is plainly the Republican hope that the Potter Committee will bold no more sessions The Bridegeport Far mer thinks that the Committee will re semble and call on the Tribune's editor to state how- and where he obtained the “, ij,hi r dispatches, as a short and ~ > av of finding Zach. Chandler’s ... k i despatches, which were smuggled ■ o Voiu the telegraph offices by udOrton and successfully con ■ Taled. The Hartford Times says: “Those Democrats who have allied themselves with the Greenback Labor organiza tion can see in the light of the Ohio election returns what good they are able to accomplish They were unable to elect a single Congressman, and suc ceeded only in defeating the Democrat ic State ticket and in helping a few Republican candidates for Congress to slip through, who would otherwise have h *n defeated. Democrats who vote l .e ‘Greenback’ ticket simply aid in keeping the Republican party in pow- GOItOIA NEWS ITEMS. Gathered From Onr Exchanges. Bananas grow, flourish and ripen in Augusta.

After a moment of silence he went to his desk, and writing a few words upon a slip of paper, called a ser vant and sent him away with it. It was a request for a constable,” lie said, regarding me with a look of pity. It is hard but it must be done, Mansfield.” j “Yes,” I muttered, “it must be done. Well, I am prepared.’’ And this was my revenge? That night, as I paced the stone floor of the cell allotted to me in the jail, the events of the past six months arose before my mental vision as the scenes of one's life are said to haunt the deathbed. I have made a faithful record of them. Hawarth was a nephew of Mr. Hol land, and the superintendent of War wick Mill, where I was employed as book-keeper. I hated the man from the very day he entered the mill, and not without reason. He was young, hand some, wealthy, in a word all that 1 was not. He was the master, insolently conscious of his power: I the poor drudge. He despised me and took no pains to hide it, well knowing that 1 dared not resent his contempt. But the real cause of my hatred lay deeper. He had blasted a hope that had taken a firm root in my foolish heart. He had come between me and my love. There fore I hated him. It was the old story. I, the poor unpaid book-keeper, loved the daughter of a wealthy mill-owner. It seemed that I might have had a bet ter chance of success with an angle in heaven than with Virginia Holland.— Yet in spite of my bettor sense, I loved her, humbly and silently as become my position. Of ltUe, -something in her manner had taught me that she had dis covered my secret, and the wild hope thrilled me, that it might perhaps, have inspired her with a little tenderness for me. With the advent of Haworth, however, the hope died in my breast. When the rumor, as it shortly, did ? that Virginia and her cousin were en gaged, I was prepared for it as a man is prepared for his death blow. Out of the depths of my despair grew up a great hatred for the man who had gained the woman whose love I would have died for, and a consuming desire for revenge. Then my whole life narrowed down into the one wicked ambition of infill ing upon him some portion of the agony he had caused me, nor was the oppor tunity long in coining. One morning he called me into his office, and handing me a check request ed me to have it cashed for him at the bank. As I entered the room I observed that he appeared to he excessively agi tated, and I noticed, too, that ho rose and hastily threw several small scraps of paper into a drawer of his desk ; not, however, before I had seen that the signature of Mr. Holland was traced, more or I# - perfectly, upon all of them 1 thought nothing of the matter at that moment: but when a week later, uews was received that Mr. Holland had been robbed of many thousand dol lars by means of a cleverly counterfeit ed check, I saw what it all meant. Haworth was the forger ! There could be no doubt of it. The scraps of paper which ha had flung into the drawer contained his first attempts at imitating the signature of his uncle. My good fortune—so in mf frenzy I deemed it—seemed almost incredible at first. The man who had supplanted me was a common thief, punishable by law. Here, then, was my revenge ready to -my hand. I would ferrit out the proof. I would accuse and convict him by my own unaided efforts. I would degrade 1 the man who had scorned me, and drag him in the mud before the eyes of his intended wife. How T exulted in the prospect! But the proof; I knew that if I could secure the scraps of paper upon which he had imi tated the name of Mr. Holland, I need go no further. VOL. 14-NO. 3 4- Had he cunningly destroyed them, or had he, like most criminals, heedlessly left open the pit that was destined to engulf him ? Since the date of the forgery he had remained away from the mill—ill at home they said. Had ho visited the place at night and made away with the testimony of his guilt? I would soon decide that point. I crept stealthily into his office, and with one of my keys unlocked the drawer of his desk. The father of lies had deserted his disciple to aid me. There lay the i scraps just as lie had tossed them to- j gether, the mute but incontestible wit ness of his guilt. I gathered them up with trembling finger, secreted them about me, and stole back to my room thrilling with sinful joy. His fate was in my hands. For many days the officers of the law were utterly baffled in their Search for the criminal. One night, however, it was whispered in the mill that suspic ion had begun to point toward Haworth. He had involved himself, as was said, in secret speculations far beyond the remotest chance of recovery. The rumor alarmed me. I feard that the truth might he discovered rutd my vengeance forestalled. I could with, hold the blow no longer or other and gentler hands would deal it for me. But ere I accused him at the bar of public justice I would blast his image in the heart of Virginia Holland. I would stab her to the soul, and look on exultingly in her agony. I would say to her: “For this low wretch, this common thief, you have slighted my love!” That very hour, with the scraps of paper buttoned safely in my pocket, 1 made my way to her dwelling. With all my guilty anger I was a coward. I dared not face the woman whose death-blow I was about to deal- I turned and sat down in a garden chair in the deep shadow waiting to conquer my weakness. As I sat there I heard a low, deep sigh proceeding from the shrubbery near at hand. Peering cautiously between the hush es I saw Virginia Holland kneeling up on the sod, with Iter hands clasped be fore her face. From her attitude I be lieved she was weeping. “Site has heard of his danger,’’ 1 muttered, bitterly, “and weeps for him.” Well, I saw lie agohV; did I exult in it as 1 had promised myself to do ! No, mad with despair and jealousy as I was my better nature conquered. An instantaneous revulsion of feeling swept over me me—a feeliug of shame for my premeditated revenge and pity for her sorrow. 1 felt that she was suffering as I had suffered. As 1 had loved her, so, doubtless, did she levs Haworth. Whatever wrong ho had done me, I could not wound ltim through her breast. A calm, glorious thought stole into my troubled soul—a thought of pardon and sacrifice. It brought a sense of melan choly pleasure to me that seemed in some measure to prepare me for the burden I was about to take upon my self. Arising from my seat, I stole noise lessly to her side, and bending above her pressed my lips upon her upraised brow—had I not the right to, then ? and wispering, “Do not weep, Virginia, I will save him,” turned hastily away. The next instant the scraps of paper I had so carefully treasured, torn into a thousand pieces, were scattered far and wide. I had rosolved for her sake to save Haworth, cost what it might. I feared that if his affairs were to be submitted to any closer scrutiny, his guilt must become apparent. Therefore the sus picion resting upon h’ui must be avert ed. Another criminal must be found— ready to confess his guilt ari l accept his fate without resistance. Who so fit for the sacrifice as myself? For her sake I would have suffered a hundred ! fold as much. I did not pause to reflect, but mak ing my way to Mr. Holland, boldly ac i cused myself of forgery, and invoked justice upon myself. The rest has been told. I had paced the cell for several Lours recalling these events to inv mind with a species of bitter satisfaction, when suddenly the dead silence of the night was broken by a tremendous tumult outside. A heavy tramping of feet, and an uproar of voices as of a vast crowd, penetrated the thick walls of my prison. Peering out of the barred Window, I j beheld two hundred operatives of the j mill clustering ‘door. The I light of the ton lies that they carried i fell upon my face, and I heard my name I shouted with thunders of applause s .- What did it mean ? I feured that it had been diseovereddUat I was inno cent, and my sacrifice had been for nothiftg Presently the key grated in the lock, the door was flung open, and there en tered—not the jailer as I expected, but Virginia Holland, with hair disheveled and eyes aflame, followed at a little dis tance by her father. “Come” she cried impetuously, seiz ing my hand. “Come away from this dreadful place.” “What is this ?” I asked, drawing back in amazement. “Why are yon here, Virginia ? KiioW~you not that I am a felon, to prove my guilt ?’ * “f know,” she exclaimedj fatsirig her tcar-wCt eyes to mine, “that you are no felon but the noblest man that ever fixed. I know all, Mansfield, more than any one but you can tell me. Come with us then.” While I stood staring at her in stu pid wonder, Mr. Holland stepped for ward and explained all that had passed. Alarmed by the turn which the in vestigations were taking, Haworth had fled from the toWu that night, leaving as a claim upon his uncle’s clemency an abject confession of his gulit. Though lie could notjmderstanJ my design in criminating myttelf, Mr. Hol land had taken immediate steps to pro cure my release. “Now, what does it mean ? lie asked. “Why did you accuse yourself, Mans field ?” “Do not ask mo now!” iuteH'rtpted Virginia, blushing. “I know why.” “Then,” I cried “you know that I love you—that I havUlov* ed you those many weary months, riot daring to confess it. You know that I would have sacrificed my fife for you as readily as I have tried to sacrifice my honor, that one you loved might ee* escape.” “I did not love him,” she answered, tremulously. “My father desired me to marry him, hut I could not, for I loved .” “Whom!” I cried, breathlessly, ap proaching her. “You!” she replied, hiding her face on’triv shoulder “You—only yoii, my darling. 1 saw it all, my poor love. I ■-aw your pride, your honor, your hu mility. 1 love you because you were poor and proud and silent. But hoW could I tell you of it?” “Then thank heaven for this forgery,” I murmured, pressing her to my heart, “for it has proved my salvation!” “Humph !” grumbled Mr. Holland, good naturedly, “thank heaven*' that I have lost my ten thousand dollars ? Ungrateful dog!” A Delaware Boy’S Heroic* Aeti < On Tuesday morning last a child of G. F. Brady, Esq., of Delaware city* while standing on a well curb, was, by the breaking of n rotten board, precip itated to the bottom of the well, a dip-* tance of forty-five feet. A boy named Frederick Hilabum, who was standing near, immediately pulled off another plank, threw lii.s arms around the pump stock, and dipped rapidly down to the water, grasped the child Us it was sink** ing for tile third time, and, though the water was very deep, succeeded in hold ing himself, as well as the child, above it until ropes were lowered to him, by which lie was safely drawn out. The child is less than three years-old, and strange to'say escaped injury, save a few scratches. The boys heroism and presence of mind in his successful ef forts to save the child deserves univei* sal commendation. — • 1 Eleven men were waiting for a rail road train in Franklin, Tet ri A negro was caught in a serious crime close by the station.
