RETEUBUriON.
AN OCEAN FIEB KI’ISODE.
Brookwoop, Ai.a , Aug. 12, 19(X>.
Epitob Timks-Cau.— One night last
month, while on a ihort visit to St Si
mon's beautiful beach, 1 procured a box
of “fiddlers,” got into a row-boat abd
pulled up under the shadows of Ocean
Pier to try my luck with the sheephead
that gather there to nibble the barnacles
on tbe piling. Everything was favora
ble, as perfect quiet reigned and only tbe
gentlest ripples disturbed tbe placid
waters of tbe moon silvered sound,
The wary sheephead were beginning
to respond to my overtures, and more
than one belted beauty already lay gasp
ing in the bottom of my boat, when two
lovers came strolling out ou the pier and
I
seated themselves almost directly over
me. Evidently they fancied they were
entirely alone, judging from what fol
lowed, which is described in the accom'
panying verses.
You see, the romantio occurrence and
surroundings stirred a chord thatprompt
ly responded, bringing to mind some
moonlight experiences of—of—certain
persons of my acquaintance. Hence,
this rhyming:
They were sitting on the pier—
Not another soul was near—
Uo was holding both her little hands In hls’n;
The shadows of the night
Had fallen ont of sight.
For a areal big moon was from the ocean risen.
Jlig ships at anchor rode,
A porpoise puffed and blowed,
A great sea turtle crawled upon the beach;
But of these be took no heed,
He was busy—yes, Indeed-
Trying ’round her slender waist his arm to
reach.
He succeeded in so doing,
And to help along his wooing
Her rosy, pouting lips he did attack,
He pressed his lips to her'n,
And she, too, pressed in turn,
Which resulted in a loud resounding smack.
Came a voice from ’ucatb the pier,
And it tilled them both with fear—
The maiden to her lover clung with fright.
Said the voice, “Youv’e spooned enough!
I wish you’d cheese that stuff,
Ami stop your noise, so these sbeephead will
bite.”
All, the changes in the sceno—
It was awful, awful mean
To spoil that little earthly paradise.
Soon the lovers disappeared,
And a wandering sea bird
Cried out In protest with discordant cries.
Then a person in a skiff,
Feeling somewhat tired aud stiff,
Sought to change his cramped position jn the
boat—
I,oit his balance and did fall!
Overboard he went with all—
Hat, shirt and pants, and shoes aud vest and
coat.
Ah me I
Yours very truly.

[IMPORTANT BILL.
One Calling for a Constitutional
Convention to be Introduced,
A bill asking the governor to call a
constitutional convention will be intro
duced at the uext session of the senate,
and it is hoped by those who favor dis-.
franchising the ignorant voters that the
results ol the election in North Caro
lina wili strengthen the sentiment in
this state toward the Hardwick bill,
which was framed last year.
Mr. Boland Ellis, of Bibb, was one
of the firm supporters of the Hardwick
bill, and would have fought for it in the
last house had it reached the senate. It
was found, lioweyer, before the bill was
eyer put on the calendar that there Were
not enough members favoring it to justi
fy a fight for its passage.
Mr. Ellis said that the bill would be
introduced at the next sessioh of the
senate, and that he would probably pre
sent it, and would certainly give it his
earnest support were it introduced by
any one.
The bill that will be introduced will
be the same as the Hardwick bill with
very few changes and will provide for
the calling of a convention to amend
the constitution tiiat an election can be
held by the people for the disfranchise'
ment of the ignorant colored voter.
