America*, Get, Sept, i'i, 1876 A. DEMOCRATIC rA.IVIIX-."5r NEWSPAPER. BUENA VISTA, MARION COUNTY, GA., DECEMBER 17, 187. r , An Idyl of the Moselle. It was evening in the ancient town of Trier; the Angelos was ringing do ali from the great fortress, like Dorn; tlie little earls and stalls had vanished out of the market place; affd the curved saints, clustered on tlie fountain, smiled benignly in the set ting sun. Old women in strange head-dresses, beads ami books in hand, passed in and out of St. Gon dolphus’ curious gates; young girls, with long, fair, plaited hair, moved in groups across tlie open space; bril liant uniforms shone on the balconies of tlie llotlie Ilaus: the shopkeepers in 4ho queer little peaked houses stood nt their doors aud amused themselves; while the awful black arches of the Porta Nigra frowned more grimly than ever in the glowiug light, and the gay and,quaint little frescoes at the street corners seemed to blaze out with 1 new c<>lor at its t ouck. One particularly high-peaked roof was sudif?u!y covered with a ftoc-k of white pigeons alighting to rest, and at the sam moment a face appear* and at a little open window among the birds, looked up and down the streets, and w s withdrawn ’ again. The face belonged to a young girl, and the room intb which she withdrew was pleasant and neat, if a little bare. A work-table at the window-showed that it was the home of a seamstress; a little shrine hung in a corner, with a tiny lamp burn ing; a lew rude pictures decorated t.lie walls. The girl was clothed i a holiday dress of dirk-green s’ulf, with white sloves and apron, and wore a scarlet flower in her breast. She had a soft, sweet, innocent face, and her fair hair hung behind in two long golden braids from her neck to her knees. As she turned from’thc window, n cnrly-’iaircd boy burst into the room. “I have a message for you, Kres ccnz. I met Carl, and he told me to tell you he could not s°c you to night. He is suddenly sent on business.” A look of disappointment clouded the g rl’s face; but after a few mo ments of silence, she said: “How good it is that they find him so useful. But come, Max, you shall not be disappointed of Jyour excur sion. You and I will"go for our walk, and I will take you for a peep at our coitago.” Max snatched his haA, which lie had flung off in disgust, and, locking the door behind them, the sister and brother descended many stairs, and took their way through the s reets, and out by the Porta Nigra into the country. “Look here, Max, did you ever see anything so gloriously blue as the Moselle this evening? Could you bear to live away from it? How glad I am that our new home will be near it. And look, how magnificent the red lights are upon the vine-cov ered hanks, with the crimson earth glowing beneath ! Hotf the tall dark • poplars and the golden acacias seem to thrill as they bask in this wonder ful light! If I had been a man, Max, I should cert ify have tried to be an artist, Karl langhs at me when 1 say so; he care lor *ucb things, and gets annoyed when I talk abojrt them; and yet I never saw half tho beauty of things till he loved “How many people are out walk ing tonight, Krcscenz! I never saw the road so gay. Oh, there is ihat ttretchefl kissing her hands to .me, and 1 will not look at her. Why? Because she was so impertimnt this morning, telling me that Karl had eft off loving you, uud was_ g dug to marry Luisc.” “It was a silly iokc, Max. I hope you did not get angry. What did you say ?” “Someth!ngjthat ouhght to have stopped her Hss.ng her hands to mo,’' said Max. “It was too foolish to be angry about, liitle brother. Someone said it to me, the other day, and I only laughed. I knewjso well it was be cause I sent Karl a message to Luise he othing evening. But JGretchen ought not to have said it to you, Max. When I gct*to my new home I don’t think I shall ask her to come and see me. Ido not want to hate anybody, and”— “I will do thejmting for you, Kres ceitz, and I hate every one who says Kafl docs not love you.” “Every one? Don’t give such big name to two people, Max. If Karl did not love me, shou'd he not be the first to know of it ? Ah, do you see our littlo house peep ng above the acm ias up in the fields over there ? How delightful it will be there, Max, with all the flowers growing in at one’s windows. And Karl is providing this home for me ! Ah, little Max, this looks rather like loving one, doesn’t it?” Max was silent, and kept hit face turned awuv, with a slight frown on the brows. “I wish I could suddenly grow big, Krcscenz,” he said abruptly. The s ster laughed. “My dear you mwat waiky 'SSe said gaily. “By and by you shall copy your brother Ku l, and if you can manage to grow like him you will do very well. In the mean time, you are not quite so small as you were, my boy, when 1 first took you in my arras, and car ried you about.our poor garret, try. ing to pat you to sleep. Mo-her had died the day before I was ten years old, and you were only born. I was a very little nurse, wasn’t I? But it scemedTo me that I was a hundred years old. How proud I was of you, and how I loved you !” “And you worked for me, didn’t you, Krescenz ?” “Ah, didn’t I ? We were alone in the world, you and me. I paid a poor old woman—a very, very old woman, who could not do anything else—a penny a day for taking care of you, and I worked lor U3 two. I was a strong little girl, aud as indus trious as a bee. People gave me work to do; it was very hard uniil I was about 14 and then I learned to sew, and things began to better. At 16 1 was ab e to rent a little room for myself, and so bring home my lit tle brother. Ah, Max, how often we have been hungry together! and yet you are a brave boy for your age. 1 have pulled you through the worst, and now Go.l has takers both kito happiness aud safety. No more scan ty crusts for you. No more sitting up all night, sewing b/ candle, for me. No more pinching at the heart when rent day is coming round. Who could have thought of it—that Kiri, whom every one admired, should have sought out me 1 I did not accept hitn hastily Max, for I was afiaidhc might change his mind; afraid that be had not known what lie was saying, or that lie did not know perfectly how much people thought of him. But ho would per sist in loving me, he would, indeed; and that is why I laugh so much when the. people tell idle tales. ‘lf you only knew, ray good people,’ I think, ‘if you only know how well I know.’ And Max—you see Ido not , rniijd saying anything t you—must HUMBER 13 confess that tuc greatest trouble 1 have had lately has been the fear that so much sitting up at night was ta king away my good looks. I look so sickly sometimes when the morning light conics in. Stare mo well in thv taco, Max, and tell me if I am get ting ugly.” “You arc the prettiest and loveli est girl in toe town, £sisW,r __Kres ccnz.” “But I am n t rosy, like Greteh en, nor are my eyes so big and bright as Luise's, nor”— “No matter,” persisted Max. “Not one of them can smilo the way you do.” After that I'must say something nio >to jvm, Ma. Sit down hcre’on the grass, and let me tell you the kind of a 1 fe we shall have over in our little house yomL-r. We shall have four rooms of our own, and there are vines growing round all the windows. Wo shall have a pretty garden, with bees and bowers, and a field with a cow in it, I shall do my sewing sitting under a tree, looking dwn on the Moselle. You will go to work with Karl, and in tho even ing you will both come home, and we shall have supper in the garden.” “I wiMi we had some now, Kres cenz.” “I wish wo had, my boy; and I think it is time to go and look for some coffee and bread.” The sister and brother turned their steps toward a pleasant summer house of refreshments, ,built among trees, upon the high overhanging bank of the liver, where the people of Trier love to drink colihe in the cool of the evening. As the gill and child took their simple meal in a nook of the projecting terrace, the blue Moselle rushed under their feet, and Trier lay bathed in ruddy glory in the distance before their eyes, witli its strange contrasting outlines soft ened into magnificent harmony, ami the fierce black liornan gates making ujrown on.the very front of the sun ny landscape. ‘•How splendid it looks, the dear old town!” cried Krescenz. “Do you know, Max, I c mnot understand why people ever leave their home to go out into the world.” *‘l shiw'd like to go out ami see the world,” said Max. “You mustn’t say so, Max. Noth ing would ever induce me to leave Trier.” They were rambling among the trees on the hillside, stopping now and then to lean forward and take a fresh peep at the beauty of the riv er and the exquisite gleams of the distance on either side. “Oh. Krensccnz, Krescenz 1 I have found a pair of lovers.” “No! Have you, Max?” said Krcsccus, with interest# “Behind that large tree, in such a pretty nook. Just peep around, and you can see.” “Hide, then, while I peep ao care fully.” < Max retired while Krescenz lean ed forward with a smile of mischief ous. delight, and peered front behind a eerten of leaves, herself unseen by the objects of her interest. When the boy thought he had waited long enough he came forth again and ; plucked her by the skirt. She turned to him slowly, and put her finger on her lip. ' “Krescenz! Krcocenz!” whisper ed the child, “what makes your fac< so dreadful? Are they ghosts!” “Ilush, Max! I cannot see, take me by the hand and get me into some quiet place, where nob .dy will find I us.” “Ob, you arc i:l! Arc X\\t gut’nu W\A<x Jjwflas. local department.

Fetch me some va:r and tell nobody.” Max obeyed, aid while tho red light paled on the Mobile, and pur ple mingled with the crimson and olivo of its bai'ks, the girls white ace lay on the moss, gazitfg blankly uj - ward with fixed eyes. The tuns trickl and over Max’s innocent cheeks is he nestled r.t her side and kissed her bps, her hands, and her Lair. “Oil, Krescenz; may 1 not call some uiie to e me and help you home?” “No, dear, no,” pa and tho Jyoung girl, starting up. “'A'e arc not io ing home any more. M'c are going away somcWherj else, you and 1 to gether.” “Wh it, away from Trier ?” “Yes, I am tired of Trier.” “I thought you said you would never leave Trier; and . what will Karl say to you ?” “Oh, Max! oh, Max!” ■“Where) shall we sleep to-night, if we keep walking on at this ra e?” “We shall rest on tho road, and to morrow we shall travel further. Tk- re are other towns besides Trier, where indu- trious people cau get work to do.” “Oh, Krescenz ! lam afraid you hive gone mad. Those people b— hind the trees must have been tin) wicked spirits we have read about, and Ttey have harmed you.” “Do yei? know who they were, Max ? Karl an ! LnisC. Gretch- en was right, after all.” “But they did not say they win going to be married f"' said tho bov. “Oh, don’t groan, Krescenz and I'will try and ask no more questions.” “Dear Max, there is nothing more for me at Trier. That is why we are going together out into tln> world.” “Oh, that I could grow big and go back and kill him “Ilush! you must not talk such nonsense. You must take care of me now, as I have nobody else.” “That I will indeed; but oh, Krescenz, my canary I” “Nomebody will tako care of it, my dear. We can get another.” “And your pretty little shrine?” “Somebody else will kneel at it, I can pray to God anywhere you know.” Deepening shadows dropped on the Moselle, aud the two young figures hurried on through the purple twilight away from Trier. No man with an average amount of seif possession need be without an umbrella on a rainy day. All he has to do is to step up to the first stranger he sees car rying a good one and say : “Beg pardon sir, I believe you have in}' umbrella.” The chances are t n to one the fellow will stammer an apology and hand it over. A Dutchman, upon taking a seat at a hotel table, inquired of a waiter, Yat you got to ead. Ham beefstake, chicken audj hash. Hash, eh, vat isb dat? It is a very nice dish, indeed, sir. The dish was brought and placed before him. lie gave it a quaint look— stirred it with his knife to fully atify himself, and then exclaimed with disgust, Yaiter! dake dis tam med a3h back to de feller vat chawed it, a’d tell him to ead it he self,. Sunday reading: If the time ever coinoe for the explanation of the mysteries of this world, we shall be glad to know why the young man who remarks on leav ing church, “I can preach a bet ter sermon than that myself,” is content to wear out his life ov< r a counter at fifty dollars a month.
