At laat the tool of flame haa bent through
Ita body of gaoia.
Why apeak of death? A proud and nation
Fplrft hat been liberated. To inch met
Hayno life la only a “fltfnl fever,” aad death
la the opeaiag of a brighter cxlateaco.
For aome week, the family and Meade of
tha poet have known that he area ill beyond
tbe hope of recovery. He wan stricken with
something like parol pair, a clot of blood on tbe
brain, bla pbyalclan deaorlbad It, and hnman
•kill could avail nothing, Evan in bin help*
less condition Mr, Hayne'a chief anxiety wan
to cheer and atrengtheo hi. devoted wife and
ten; nod by a tramendooj effort he, almoet to
the laat, spoke hopefully, and endeavored to
divert*attention from hi. affliction.
When it in known that bn conld not live,
spontaneous exproaalona of aorrow came from
every quarter of the country, and today many
a tcii-dlmmed eye It turned la the direction
of the little oottag* at CopaaHIII.
Uo*t people who know anything of onr liter*
store know wmetblng of the lineage of Paul
Hamilton Uaync, ths general outline of hie
career, and tbs world’a estimate of bla genlna
and bla works. Born in Sooth Carolina, In
1KI0, onr poet belonged to a family dlatlo*
gubhed in the annals of tbe state, and de*
m
PAUL HAMILTON HAYNE.
•cended from an iltnatrtous English ancestry.
He waa a kln.man of the fkmona patriot, Colo
nel lunc Hayno, who waa ao cruelly murdered
by the British daring the rnrolnUon. He was
alao closely related to the Senator Hayno,
whose celebrated debate with Webster baa
become historic.
Young Hayno entered life with all the pres
tige that name and high social position could
give him. Alter graduating at Charleston
collage, he tamed his attention to literature.
He bad Inherited % comfortable fortune, and
was therefore at liberty to follow his Incline*
Ilona In tho matter of oocnpstton. At that
time Charleston waa n literary center. Iregaro
was a familiar figure In its social circle!.
William ailmoro Simms was at his bosh end
the inflnenco of Calhoun waa s potential ele
ment in letters aa wall as in politico, Hayno
natnrolty drifted Into journalism. Ho waa
called to the editorial chair of BnaseU'a Liter
ary Monthly, and from that time until his
death was never separated from literature.
In 1KT5, when he was about twenty-five
yean eld, Ticknor A Co., of Boat in, published
bis lint volume of poems. A second volume
followed in 18A7, end n third in 1W0. Success,
crowned these ventures. The critics on both
aides of the water applauded tha young post,
aad the older bards ballad him aa tha south's
greatest linger. Ho bad married, In the mera.
time, Mils Mary Middleton Michel, of
Charleston, the daughter of a distinguished
French surgeon, whom services under the
first Nepoleon at the bottle of Bolpelo were
rewarded with a gold medal by tha third N'a*
poison. Of this noble and affectionate wits
too much cannot bo aatd. No poet, no literary
man, ever bad a more sympathetic, apprecia
tive and devoted helpmeet.
Hayne haa always been culled a classic post.
This is aot so much baeanso he wae Imbued
with the spirit of the Roman and tireek wri
ten aa because he seemed to live In the at-
niospbrre of the Eltsabethan age. With all
thawurka of thet period, and on down to the
present time, he waa alngnlarly familiar. Bat
ha did not study nature and mankind through
the medium of booke alone. He waa an ar
dent lover of nature In all bar moods and
phases, liar visible forma impressed him.
and even n zephyr atirrcil him, lie wai as
much an rapport with tbs unseen aa with tho
grand aad ptctnnaqne. Bach n man was com
pelled to hove enthusiasm, fervor, the rent of
an artist and the Judgment of a critic. With
all then he had tendernaaa, delicacy and pas
sion.
Mr. Usyae’sculler poems were vnry popular.
Bpme of them were written tn n vein that
pleated the incuhnred a. well aa tho orltlcal.
' The Village Beeoly” «ill bo reoolleotad by
many of onr ronton. Take than three verses:
'Tbe gloving lilts of a tropic are
Bure cu her radiant aback.
And ws know that bar Totes Is rich and low.
Though wt never bare heard her apeak;
Bo lull are those gracious ayea of light.
That the bllsWUI flood rent o'er.
And where'er her Iranunll petbway tends .
A glory Alls on before.
“Ob, very grand are the city belles,
Of e brilliant and atatoly mein,
Aa Urey walk the steps of the languid dance.
And flirt in the peneee between;
Bit beneath the boughe of the hoary oak.
Where the minstrel fountains play,
I think that the artless tillage girl
Ii tweeter by far then they,
"But tha starry dasre tad the genial ann
Hava gladdened lurgwllnlsm youth;
And her brew Is blight with lira flush of hope;
Her reel with the seal ol truth;
Bet ft el ere beautiful on tha hills
At the uepe of an Orient mere.
And Roth wes never more felcto see
In the audit of the autumn cure.*'
In ita way, this Is chartaiag. Ham la asms*
thing with a itroeg dramatic toech. It ben-
UUtd
ntn rxxrraxT.
Thou ■ee’at yonder women with the arose pettme
Used with the dark mhlesf Is eke not de rout f
Her euul Is In the session and hat eyes
Ata dim with weeping-weeping toe the tollies
Of a mbgulded youth: thus Mlth the world.
But I, who know her ladyship, know this :
►he weeps that youth Itself, and tha lost triumphs
Which followed In lb lealn, the arena of losers
Dead now, os married e*i ths rant, lbs Joust,
The sweet flirtations, merry cernltala,
And—tOhf supremest memory of all!)—
Ths leaded serenadcra 'Death tha lattice,
Lifting Use voice of passion in the night:
And one ameng the mlaattcb loved bet srsU,
But him tbe langbed to acorn, hb heart was riven
►he trampled on the purest pearl of lore,
And cast It to tha dogs Well, (Rid la Just!
►he scorned his sacred gift, end so must walk,
Uencs forth a lonely woman on the earth!
The war found Hr. Hayne anffering HI
health. Bat in spite of his delicate eonstitn.
lion he felt that he must serve bis country.
Vnable to tike tbe field, be accepted apiaitton
on tbe staff of Oorernor Pickens. Hb beau,
tlftrl residence was laid in ashes daring the
bombardment of Charleston, and hb Urge and
valuable library deatroyed. During these
stormy times his pen waa not tdlo. Hb "Blank
Flag” was a modal of fiery vane, perhaps too
fierce to be appreciated now. Note the ;
Md:
‘Then np with the sable banner I
Belli thrill to tbe War-God's breath,
For wa march to the watchword—Vengoenoe!
And ws follow the captain-Death I"
We must remember that thb waa written by
a man whose native cl tv wae then passing
through a baptism of fire. Another poem
written In. 1808 contains inch spirited appeals
as the following:
'Cornel nub from ths mountains, tha lowlands,
the valleys,—
Hush on. like tha avalanche treed from Ita spell.
And lash the base cohorts, who throng to enslave
Witi ttrlpci that shall give thorn a foretaste of
It la a relief to return from anything ao in
tense, so snr-chargsd with a warlike spirit to
milder lays, A stanza like thb:
• .-r fare, so tender and meek,
< i.ght of a prophecy lies,
That haih silvered the red of the nee on her
check.
And chastened the thought In her eyes."
Is dtliclons In ita rhythm and melody. This,
too, has a winsome charm about It:
‘And later stilt shall the chnrchyard flower*
Girard nigh with a while Increase:
And a Mid ontponr. by the old church tower,
A plajnllro poem of peace,"
Seme of the war poems are as good as any of
tha "Baja of the Scottish Cava! lore.” This to
Slnart is wonderfully hold end strong:
"A cup of your potent "mountain daw,”
By the camp lire’s ruddy light;
I At us <lr ink to u spirit a* teal and true
As ever draw blade In fight,
And dashed on tbe foeman's linos of stool,
For God and bis people's right.
By heaven I It seems that hb very name
Embodies a thought of Art;
It strikes on the ear with a sense of flame,
And|lhe life blood boundoth higher.
While tho pulses leap end the brain expands,
In theglowofagranddeslro."
Thu war awept away everything the
Haynes possessed. Alter their horns was
burned tha family sllvtr was seat to Columbia
for tafa keeping, bnt even thb wa* lost. It
went to awoll tho plunder of Shannon's rough
troopers. Homeless and penniless the lltUo
foully sought a refhge among the pine barrens
of Georgia. AtCopaoIUil.InColnmblaooanty.
sixteen miles from Auguste, ths post began
tbs painful and laborlona task of literally
crtaUng a home plan*. He had nothing to
start with, and the land was withont a sign of
promltc. In this lonely spot tho exllsn built
llttlo cotbge, or "shanty,” wit was called at
flist.
In the spring of 1867, Henry Tlmrod paid
Hayn* a visit. “Ho found me with my fami
ly," wrote Hr. Hayno, “established inn crazy
wooden shanty, dignified at a cottage, near the
tnckoftho main Georgia railroad, sixteen
mile* from Auguste. Our llttlo apology lor
dwelling waa parched on tha top of n hill,
overlooking in sovarol directions bund redt of
leagues of pine barren; there were, as yet, nol
ther garden nor enclosure near it, und
wilder, more dceolate, enrage looking horns,
conld baldly bare been aeon east of tbo great
pralilrs. Hithar, ao to apeak, had the eruption
of wtr hurled ns; for onr old residence on tho
beautiful Carolina coast had boon deatroyed by
fire; the stato of onr nativity was a blackened,
smoking rain, end wn were consequently
grateful for any shelter, however lonely, in
which It was poaalble to live at peace and In
freedom. Unman heart* can be a* warm In
* shanty, with leaking roof and ahutterless
windows, as in the palaeo of tho Doges, and
In the enthusiasm of the poet’s welcome we
strove to mako amends for the general povorty
cf his accommodations and a very perceptlblo
coarseness of tho cubine.”
"We would rest on the hUlaldea In tho sway
Ing golden shadows, watching together tho
titanic masses of snow whito clouds which
floated alowly and vaguely through the sky,
anggeatlng by tholr form, whiteness and serene
motion, despite ths season, flotillas of leabergs
upon arctic leas. Bike lasaaroni, we basked
in tha quiet noons, souk lalo depths on depths
of reverie, or perbape of yet more charmod
•leap. Or wa smoked, convening lazity be

"Next to some pine whooe antique root* just
peeped
Prom.out tho crumbling bases of the sand."
But Mr. Hayne did not givo himself entire
ly to thb idyllic existence. Ho courageously
faced the altnatlon aad want to work
with hb pen. The but north-
etn magaainee gladly weloomed
hb contributions, and some of them achieved
a wldn popularity In Europe. Tho Blppln-
cotta, In 187*2, published his "Begendt and
Byrirg," and In 1873 his ediUon of Timroi’s.
poem* appeared, with n pathetic biographical
•ketch. "The Mountain of the Boren’’ wag
published In 1675. Ho wrote also n "Blfa of
Gilmore Simms,” and "Memorial Sketches of
Governor Hayno and Ur. l.egare." Among
bb longer poama at tbb period of hb life bo
wrote "Tbe Yorktown Ceoteonlal Ode” and
tha oda read at tha opening of Atlanta's Inter
national Cotton Exposition. Itcccntly his
prose article* on “Ante Ballam Charleston”
end Judge Oayarre, in the Southern Btronac,
have attracted favorable attention. The pine
barrens did not prove unfavorable to imagina
tive work. Here b a poem with tho flavor of
tha soil:
run rina's mystssy.
Listen! the sombre foliage of tbe Pine.
A swart Uliana of tha woodland trees,
Is answering wbat sre may but half dtslne.
To thosa soft whispers of the twilight breezs!
Fatalon and mystery murmur through tha Inaras.
Psaalon aad myalcry touched by t eathtem pate.
Whore monotone of long low anguish grieves
For soewiblng lost that shall not live again!
Another fkvorite poem we must give in fall.
It is ‘

Lo! irons a neighboring glade.
Flashed through tha drifts of moonshine swiftly
A fairy shop* of flame
It ram in dialling spirals over heed.
Whs ace to wild asreatnem wed.
Poured marvellous me todies,ill very trill oo trill,
The very leaves grew atilt
On the charmed trees lo hearken; while tot me

It la conceded that Mr. Hayne’a sonnets will
hear comparison with some of tbe beat in onr
language. Here Is one on
OCTOBCn.
The passionate summer's dead! the sky’s aglow
W'l-Ji roseate flushes of matured desire;
The winds at ave era musical and low
Aa sweeping chorda of a lamenting lyre.
Far up among tho pillared clouds of fire,
Whose pomp In grand procearion upward grows,
With gorgeous blazonry of funeral shows,
To celebrate the rummer 1 * past renown.
Ah me! how regally the haaTena look down,
O’enhadowing beautiful autumnal woods.
And barren fields with hoarded Increase brown,
And deep, toned majesty or golden floods,
Thet lift tbelr solemn dirges to the iky,
To swell the purple pomp that floateth by.
As tho ycara rolled on Copse Hill became a
well-known plaoe. Tha llttlo cottage did not
•Und still. It moved with the times. Mrs.
Hayneh energy and taste gradnslly trans
formed the ploco Into a delightful home, cm-
bowered with vine* and abode trees, and
fringed with n shurbbery that Bhcnatone
would have envied. Bo far as decoratlvo art
was concerned the naonrecs of tbe little fami
ly were exceedingly limited. It is said that
Mr. Hayne after a trip north waa bewildered
on hta return at tho changes that had taken
place In the cottage. Daring bin abeence Mrs.
Hayne bad artistically ornamented the walla
of each room with thousands of engravings cut
from tha pictorial papers and magazines. She
had arranged them with each an eyo to offset
aa to brighten np tha plaoe and make ovary
sqoaro inch of wall aurllico attractive and sug
gestive.
Besides his wife, Mr. Hayne had the com.
panionship of hia son, William, to cheer him.
The name of WUliam Hayno is already well
known in literary circles. Bike hia father he
ia a poet, and his verso haa tiro, melody and
genlsa In It. Although living In this secluded
place, it must cot be thought that tho dwollan
at Copse Hill ware reduce. They were hos
pitably inclined, and war* never happier than
when entertaining friends who had sought
them out in the shadows of the pine*. Occa
sionally Mr. Hayne visited distant cities. Peo
ple were always eager to see the modaat, re
served poet, and nothing but his lorn of n
quiet lifo prevented him from bosoming a
social lion. This sort of thing, however, never
tailed him. Yet he bad a social nature. In
conversation he wu always winning and en
tertaining. His appearance always attracted
even those who were perfect strangers. Of
medium belaht, hia slim, graceful figure hod
an easy bnt dignified carriage. HI* face looked
remarkably yontbfol and glowed with anima
tion. Hia dark hair and hazel oyet admira
bly act off hia claaalo features. Altogothsr, he
wu an exceptionally handsome man, and hia
awcetneaa of disposition and tendarnens made
him draw like a magnet wherever he went.
We cannot now assign to onr dead poet his
proper rank in literature. It 1* too early for
that. Other generations moat pass their
judgment upon his work. So far as tho judg
ment of bla contemporaries goes, it may be
laid that he lucceaafnlly passed through tbo
ordeal ot criticism. The beautiful edition of
hia poems pobUahed by D. Bothrop ft Co., of
Boaton, in 1683, wu a compllmant of which
any post might well bo proud. With the
people of the aonth hia poetry moat always be
popular. While it la Amerloan in tho bast
■cue, It it alao distinctively southern. It In
terprets nature ** wo aeo It It brings the plno
barrens, tbe mocking bird, tba muscadines,

CHATTJUfOOOA, Tenn., January 8,1888,
For two jean I hare been almost unable to WftUC
and nearly all tbe time hare suffered tbe moet In*
tense pain, rendering it impossible to sleep ftt
night. I suffered with enlargement of thobonOg'
and atone time it was feared that my leg woulQ
bare to be amputated.
My disease wu Rheumatism, and I used all tbd
usual remedies without effect, and I had about lost
confidence in the curative powers of all medicine*.'
Bcveral weeks ago I had to give up btutaoM, and
bad almost despaired of over obtaining relief,
▲bout this time Mr.
W. J. WILLINGHAM, OF ATLANTA,
Bearing ofmy complaint advised the use of B.Hi
B., assuring me that it would cure rheumatism,'
and was confident it would effect a cure on mo;
With but little fUth I purchased one bottle, and;
thank God, I am rapidly impoving. All pain bag
coved, 1 sleep soundly at night, swelling has sub
sided, and forseveral days have been able to ruxz
np and down ctalrs, attending to tbe factory bu*H
ness as nimbly as ever. I thank you for this earth*
ly salvation. I write this withont solicitation oc
any knowledge of yon except through yourmedl*
cine, and because I feel grateful for wha; hu bees
done for me. Should any one doubt thU cure,!
