Ho was standing in fiont of a large oak tree which was half cut through ; he was leaning on his ax, and looking at the man near him who was seated on a fallen trunk and smoking i cigar. About his pusoou was the un mistakable air of wealth and sue. ctss. He was nevertheless g&z ing at his companion with the ax with an expression of admira tion, “ A'liy do it ?” repeated Holt; and he lifted his weapon and swung ii furiously against the oak. ‘/know it for Ihe same rea son that that tree is bound to fall because it can't help it. ’ “Pshaw!’’ Mr. Barron, though bp utter ed this exclamation as if in reinofi. stmifce, could not help a look of relief comir g to his face. He felt that his countenance express ed too much, and he stooped down and picked up a /wig from the ground; breaking it in h\s fin gers. and not raising his eyes, “You see I have gtown up nea her since she was a child,” went on Holt, “and 1 don’t think she would ever tbiok of me, save as a kind of brother, I'm not going lo give her the trouble of saying ‘No’ to me. Girls don’t care for people they have seen all their lives.’ “Do you know so much about girls!” rising suddenly to his fee, away hi cigar. “Who is it knows so muc“ about girls?” asked a voice behind them among the trees, and a girl stepped out into the opening and looked from one to the other, not a smile sti ring her dark and vivid face. But there was a flash of fun in her which was rot allowed to over run. Naomi Barto must have known verv well wbat was the effect of that crimson, fluffy tl ing which was twisted over her biuck hair : was she unconcious that none could wear the drapery of a shawl with more grace than she could bring to bear upon the apparently passive ac/t /’here was .itde red mittens on her hands, and one of those little held a three p nl tin paii. “I suppose you think it a manly thing, Ralph //oh,” turning to tnal person, whose face, despi'e himse't was g'owing with pleasure at sight of hei, to Have your poor old mother to suffer from fears that you will starve to death. You forgot your dinner to day.” Barron had quickly removed his hat as he had bowed profoundly to Miss Barto and now he stood looking at hei with that undis guised but perfectly respectful ad miration, which is so great a com pliment to women. Did she see that admiration ? Holt saw it anti was like a sudden and terrible revelation to him. Of course, Barron was attracted to her; of course that attraction must be mutual ; for Holt was r»o‘ so prtserverly blind but he could see that this stranger, rich, hand some of good address, ai-d he ad ded to himself 'A good fellow, too,” was one :o ensnare a woman s fancy. He had just announced to Bar ron that he had made up his mind <’l H OWN SECTION WE LABOR FOR ITS ADVANCEMENT LAWRENCEVILLE GA.

He I could not help going he had as serted, far if he remained nt home ! he should be obliged to pee Naomi i Barfo smile with love at some one I else. Before Holt could speak Barron said, g. i ly ; “Y< u put a premium on forget fulness, Miss Barto. You’ll make him leave his dinner pail every day, if you come acd bring it to j him.” Holt said nothing, the gnl won | dered why his face was so j black as he advanced and took j the pail from her hand. Everything was now plain tu ; him. He knew why Burro*', had ‘ continued staying in the eouu/ry when one would think he would I prefer his usual haums. “Well, Barron had a right to love her,what could be said against j it !” Holt saw A’mini turn with a i brilliant smile toward Barron and in a silent fury look up his i ax and began plying it whli vigor ; finding a sort of savage relief as | the blade cut oft’ huge chips from ! the tree. /’lie girl remained some minutes : but she did not appear to notice ! Holt again until she went away. wLen she sai l gooelby w‘h the free pleasantness of any acquain anceto whom his whims were noth jug for good or id.

Suddenly he exclaimed: i "I believe you are right. Wo ! men don’t love the men they’ve ; known from childhood. If ihey think they do they are misrak* I eu. Ho t still breathing heavily He scarcely dared look at am com panion, There was some dread ! ful impulse in his mind to turn ' and dash his ux against that hand- I some face. For the moment he j was afraid of himself. Ho saw I again, as through a course of j blood, the sweet, involantarv smile | Naomi had given Barron, | He turned toward Barron, who j sprang back tnvolun/arily a step I crying out : “Good heavens, Holt what ha s | happened to you ?” The exclamation recalled Holt to himself, //e tried to laugh. Then he said, awkwardly : “1 am glad you agree with me about women and their way of loving, You see I am right in deciding to/ to slay here and en dure the torture of seeing the girl love some one else. lustead of wai/ing until next week before 1 go, I can be ready the uay after to-morrow.’' Holt was looking full in his companion's face as he said these words, and he saw something there that made him say, sharply, and yet with a kind of guttural, sound in his voice : “Barron, you love her ! ’ Barron turned away, lur Hoit saw his face grow red and then pale. Then he fronted his ques tioner and said almost in a whis per “If I do, you cannot wonder, can yon ?” Holt was silent a long time. So long ibat Btrron at las/ came to ward him, and put his ban d on bis arm, repeating hi i question: “You cannot wonder can you ?” Instead of replying Holt said “I was thinking of that old say ing about looking at happiness tbrougn auoiher man’s eyes." “But I am not happy yet.” “You will be. I saw her smile a you to-day.” “You must not put too much confidence in a woman’s smile. ’ Though Barron said this his face showed (hat hope was high. “I shall not cut any more w 00... to day,” abruptly said Holt. ‘ -Vill you go down the uill with me ?” He hurriedly put on his jacket, then swung bis ax over his shoul der. He tooked and acred in haste. “it f see Steuben before noon/ he b id, to k iiisolf, ‘i tan easi y arrange to leave the day after to I’KUiow. Every hour that I stay h. re is a misery to me now. film two men began the descent of tne hill and went on half wav down in silence ; tlier Barron sud denly stopped. “That was a curious sound," lie said. Holt roused hiuiself. “I heard nothing,” he said. “Wlmt was it like ?” Hu ipoke indifferently, as if he cared very litde. “I eau scarcely tell. It might be a cry for help.” “Not likely,” listlessly “But if it were,” returned Bar rut, still detaining his compan ion by a hand on his arm—-* if it were, you would wish so heed ; t would yon not !’’ Holt was plainly impatient; but ho said. “Of course,” and tried to listen. Then they bo/lt heard what have been a cry, hut i/ had such a stia'ige aud stiff’-rated sound in it that it was impossible to tell if a human voice ha t uttered it: “You heard that?" said Barron, ivho felt irritated that the other should feel so little interest in this sigff of distress. s; but I don't know what to | make of it. Borne dog perhaps. ’ “Whatever it is, l shall follow it up.” At dhe turned off to the left and began pushing through the thick growing wood, while //olt kept by his side sullenly but per sis ently, as one having no inter est in the affair in hand. lu a moment the two had emerg ed iuto a space where the trees ha* 1 been cut that winter. It was a soipewhat steep slope down the hill, and here and there weie still small patches of snow, fast melt ing beneath this sun. On one of these patches of while, close to where a small group as walnut trees had beeh left standing, both men paw at the same instant the same object. That object was a spot bright red on the snGw, something re sembling what women call a ‘‘cloud.” 1> was like what Naomi Barto had worn a half an hour ago Holt dashed forward a step by the side of Barron; then, recalling the smile he bad seen given to that man, by an effort which look all his will, which was weak) be drew backhand followed the impetuous rush that Barron made down the hill. “J will be icady to help, but I will uot be first,” was what he thought. As they came nearer they saw that a tree seemed to have fallen, aud the next moment revealed to their eves that a woman was pin ned down beneath one of the bran ches. I hey saw the dark hair loosen ed and lying on th snow. The face was turned from them, but neither seemed to see it to know that ii was the woman hey boih ■oved who was in such need of help. Holt’s eyes mechanically took in the iv hole scene, aside from that helpless figure. He saw that ihe ire*, which had fallen had been sawid nearly through the butt, and that it stood ready for the firs- blow of wind from the right direction He knew, too, or thought ho knew, whose carders werk it was. Strange how many swift .houghts raced through his mind in the brief time while he was flying down the hill. Barron reachtd the spot an in stant before Holt. The two men saw at a glance the position of a heavy branch across the girl’s chest, and saw also from what p'act- it must be moved. But Holt had the better jud *e meut, and in this terrible moment the cooler eye. Hv felt as though every nerve and muscle were strung to t e utmost tension. His swift glance at the suffering face i n the snow told him with almost unerring precision how many minutes longer Naomi could endure the burden that was press ing her yourg life out. I Barron leaped at once to the place, close to waere the tree limb joined the trunk. Before Holt could cry out to him to wait, 'hut / hey might uuite their effort a. lie lmd seized the limb, and with vio lent and sudden strain, like the lifting of one miraculously made a giant, hs raised the wood that lay over the woman pinned there. His face was purple, hiu iye ha Is injected wi h blood, as he did so; but no on - saw that effort save the girl for whom he was working; and whose face was to ward him. Holt, as soon as he knew that Barron would make his first effort without waiting for aid, direeied his whole attention to watching if the load was lifted enough for him to draw Naomi from under the tree. //is own plan,formed instamane ously, Lad been that they should qoth endeavor to raise ilio load and push the log underneath,thus relievuig the weigh/. To his unspeakable surprise, he saw the lhi:k branch rise slightly beneath Barron’s power. He had uot known how thoroughly that gentleman’s muscles lmd been trained. As quickly as light, as strongly as love, Ho't now acted. In that fl ish of time while the weight was lifted he drew ihegirl from beneath it. Having done so, befell down on liis knees beside her, uot looking now toward Barron, who did not come forward. Naomi whose senses had been painfully kept alive, had now be come unconscious; out being nat urally strong and well she revived in a few moments, as Holt rubbed snow upon her hands and tem ple*, keeping himself outwardly calm only by a great effort. W hen she opened her eyes and locked at him, though his heart thrilled beneath that glance, he felt that lie must not yield lo the temptation it Drought to him. Now lie remembered Barron. He rose quickly aud glanced over the tree trunk, some s iflej cry escaping him as he did so. He saw Barron lying on his side, htß face almost as whitens the snow near it, and a thin stream of blood slowly trickling fro u his lips. Something resembling a smile came into Barron’a eyes as //olt came round and bent over him. ‘ls sh>- safe?” wh’spered Bar ron. Holt nodded. He did not think lie could speaks Young, unused to death as he was, he knew that death was near the man before him—so near that he never thought of going for aid ‘‘They said I was fickle,” arid Barron, slowly; “but how could I have been tickle to her?” He looked up wistfully at the strong, moved face befor him. “I suppose it is all right," he said after a pause. Then more loudly and strongly: “Where did I read, the other daj, that it was not difficult to die?” As he finished speaking his glance met the eyes of TVaomi. who had risen, and had come to H olt’s side. A gush of blood came faster. His eyelids fell soft ly, peacefully. The man and women standing there remained silent and motion less for several moments. Then //olt turned and looked at ihe pallid, tear wet face of the girl beside him. He took off his hat, as he n ver ently said; “I do not wonder, Naomi, that, as I love you, so you loved him, Even I could not help having an affection for him.” Ihe blood came painfully up over Naomi's face. The pulse ui her tliroat be a heavily. “You mistake,’’ she arid, in a voice mat, sad as it was, started Holt ill to what seemed to him then to be a guilty happiness. “I did not love him. I have al ways loved you.* Holt to 'k the little hulf frozen I a d qivekly in his. “He gave Lis life, as I would have given mine, ’ he said, as soon as he could speak without too much tiemor in his voice.

Having recently returned from Brunswick, " here the (leorgia Stale Agiicul trial Society held its Spring con 'ention, and thinking a brief ac count of its acts ami doings might be of im crest to some of your readers I have taken i‘. upon my self to write you a short account of wlmt we saw and heard while t here and en rente. A very large number of dele gates from North Georgia left Atlanta on the E. T., V & Ga. railroa 1 Monday, the Dili iusi., about 4 o clock p. m., and was car ried via Macon and Brunswick without change of cais, arriving ai Brunswick about 7.1 o’clock Tuesday morning. The cold wave overtook*us about fifty miles this wide of Brunswick, and the citi zens accused us of bringing the old weather in our overcoat, pockets. It was cold, the ther mometer stan fingabout 28 during our stay, and our overcoats were in constant demand. Brunswick is ari interesting ciiy to a North Georgia man, so very different from Ihe interior of the State. The harbor with her docks covered with lumber, rosin and turpentine, ships nrd steamers by the dozen being loaded and nn loa.de 1; the famous live oak. with its never changing greet., loaded with long, luxuriant moss, and i 8 numerous evergreens and level grass-covered streets. They have two artesian wells in full blast, one said to bo the second 1 irgest in the world, with a ten nidi pipe and a flow of water sufficient to mn a mill; the water is strong sulphur but T don't like d: they do, and say that when a person becomes accustomed to it that no oilier water i* as good The convention couv tied in the hall aboil'. !l o clock an I the per fecting cf the 101 l showed that we bad nearly 300 delegates present- I he usual welcomes were deliver od aud we came dowu to work in good earnest. I he question of emigration wus before the convention in Rome in August last and was carried over to this time. Col. I). C. Barrow was ettitled to the floor and opened tho discussion by reading a very long aud interesting argu men: in favor of emigration. The subject was discussed \ei’y oxten sively aud filially disposed of by a resolution memorializing the Legislature to pass such act us to meet the demands of the country. Prof. While made the experi mental report,addressing the con vention and advocating the estab lishing o other experimental sta tions in Georgia. The result of his experiments bus developed some very curious facts so farmers and can he, ser n in the last crop ie-port or soil test sent out by the Uommssiomr of Agriculture. 1 rot.

Duncan, President <ff the boutli Carolina Slate Agricultural Society, addressed the convention, giving ijjjj observations as a cot tontol for the jiust twen y years. He is u voting man and an iuter esiing and forcible speaker. Dr. P. H. .Mell Jr., addressed the convention on the science of meteorology, and I think he suc ceeded in convincing a majority of us the benefits derived from that course to agriculturists. Then the practical use of im proved tools, machinery, etc., was discussed fully by Col. Murphy, of BarnesviDe. But the subject “ludustry the highway to success" was the clincher, delivered by Dr, Quigg. of Conyers, He is a lull blooded Irishman and a Presbyterian di vine. His speech was excellent both intensely interesting and laughable. The pic'ures he drew of the average Georgia farmer on duty was ludicrous. The Doctor made fnr himself quite a reputa tion for \it and humor and was cu'i.y.vr/rr herald, OUR tOli OKPARTMtoNT IS COMPLETE. ALi, ORDERS FOR NEATLY AND PROMPTLY EXECU TED.

I cenlu go on and on in this way, g > ing you short accounts of va rious things of interest, but I must give you a notice of the ex cursion and stop, as this is getting too 1 ng already. The jieoj le of Brunswick gave us a complimentary excursion to die 'ower point of Cumberland Bland, called Duugeubss, a dis lance of 40 miles from Brunswick. About two hundred of the dele gates uod one hundred, including quite a number of ladies, of the citizens of Brunswick were on board the steamer Collier, and on our way by 9 o’clock a. m. The morning was clear and beautiful We made the point'by one o’clock and landed Only haviug one hour to remain on the Island, yom correspondent stinek for_tbe beach half a mile away. We gathered shells and other /hiugs of interest and took a good look at the Atlantic. We visited the points of most interest rapidly, and finally came upon the giave of Henry J ee. His grave is marked by a simple marble head stone and very much neglected. It is enclosed by a concrete wall made of oyster sh 11s and lime, and will stand perhaps fo* auother century Henry Lee was known during revoluiionary times as ihe gallant light horse Harry Lee. lie died while] /he guest of Gen Green in 1802. A Pennsylvanian, by the name of Uarnegia, (who is reported to he worth ihiriy milliouB) owns this part of ihe Island and has recently erected a mansion at a cost of over $300,000 aud is now oriirttcenting and beautifying ihe grounds. He has a large olive orchard of 500 trees in full hear jng and I understood 'he oil made from the fruit was sold from $8 to M 2 u gallon. He has sweet orange orchards and the walls are ornamented with sour orange trees loaded with beautiful golden Iruii. The island is beautiful in deed and beyond my description. Our stay was too short, by a large majority for the most of us. i bis place “Dungeness” is the rendezvous of the American Yacht Club and the club has about sixty members who rendezvous there once each /ear, and are enter" taineil royally as the gues‘s of Mr. Carnegia during th hr stay J saw Mr. Carnegias yacht, /t was a present to him from his brother and cost #32,000. It is a beauty. W hile at the grave of Get oral Lee ihe whistle sounded and wo hurried aboard aud started on the return. It was now cloudy and a stiff wind was blowing from the east. Just before reaching the bur, where the waier is always more or less r >ugb, a storm came upon us and we were shaken up pretty roughly. The cook stove was upset and all the crockery was broken. Men were thrown down ar.d a small panic appeared among die passengers; a great many were sea sick and the sight was a novel one fox a North Georgia person. Our particular delegation be haved very well and looked wise ns though they were used to such things, and one of diem looked so serene, composed and wise that the terrified green ones .veto con soled and pacified by him. We finally got through and landed in perfect safety and in 20 minutes thereafter were speeding through piney woo l ou our homeward trip and arrived home on the 13th iu good fix.
