'Its rive generally *alre their ris? ib/the lof mojrctain ranges, and in the ear part of their' cours? are' "joined I dimerous tributary''streams. Wb< the rainy season has set in-:tfhic generally commences. about the mil pie-of May-the downpour soinetiw continues for six weeks at a time, an these rivers overflow their banks au flood the surrounding( . country fi and'near, forming in manyi plac< miniature seas. Upon "these OCCJ sioris hundreds of farmers are ruin?e thousands of sheep" and- cattle ger etally destroyed, and not unfn q'u?ntly many valuable human liv? sacrificed. Perhaps the district most liable t disastrous floods in the whole com try is the Hunter, where, every fe\ years, thousands of acres are sub merged with the suddenness that i truly appalling. Houses are fre ?juently buried to the chimney-top iieueuth the waters, which rapidr form an inland sea of at least a hun Ired miles in length by an acre ii breadth. In the year 186G I was quartern it Windsor, a little township about twenty-five miles distant from Syd ?ey, ?he metropolis of the country ind tor some months I had been en *aged in the arduous and by no weam romantic duty of hiujtiug for .illjci! ?tills, of which it was supposed then ivere several in the neighborhood. I certainly did iay best to discovei Dheir-whereabouts, bufc-<was complete ly unsuccessful, abd after traversing the country day after day, in ever) kind of disguise, until I must have traveled hundreds of miles, I at las! gave the matter up as a bad job. If I had not found a still, however I had in the course of my wande? inga discovered what gave me a fai greater delight, for I had fallen acros; one of the pn-ttiest and most lova ble little girls that an Australian oi any other sun ever had the honor ol shining upon, ;and, whatw?s better I had so ingratiated myself ." in hei good graces as to win her promise tb.at ene would never marry any one but me. Our acquaintance had commenced in a romantic manner enough. I had rescued her from a wild cow, whe would Certainly bav? coreel her had I not interposed and shot the brute. She was too frightened to walk home and so I accompanied her, was in troduced to ber ' parents, as a matter of course, and they were profuse in tbeij- shanks, and begged me hence forth to look upon their house au my home, and so forth. I promptly took them, at their word, alifi every other evening, and aoaietrmea even- oftener, my charger "would b? comfortably stalled for houri in farmer Marlin's .stable and, mean while, the pretty Gertrude and my self would be either waudering by the river's bank, studying poetry to gether in the old s?inhier-nouse, or, .as. the cold weather . drew on,... play ing ches*, in-'the ?-nug little beek par lor. These things continued until the rai hy seaso? set hf, but instead pi being deterred by the steady down pours, ruy visits became'if possible, more frequent, and through the slushy lowlands, where the water was often above my horse'sjtnee, I nightly jog^ t;ed, like a marine centaur, .to visit "my i remorara. . "By abd by war father's suspicious were aroused. Could it be possible a mounted trooper, wearing English uniform, would ride nightly through mini and rain, and thunder and light ning, hail und wind, to drink a glu.ss of grog and smoke apipe with an old man of sixty? Common sense an swered " No," and having a fair stock of that commodity, so also s?id Far mer Martin. " The girl he's after, and it's time to put a stop to hi8 non sense," was the conclusion he arriv ed at. ."And-sp fiie very next evening I rode over: before' Gerbr?de and I could finish our third game of chees, tJlr. M?rtity put his head into the room and said, in a dry, dignified ikind of way : . t 1 "Hem ! could I speak with you a i few mingates in tho ?ont parlor, Mr. mSP .?. l7W I think 1 knew what was coming, Land so did Gertrude, ior she grew rvery'paVe dud ;upset* the chessboard in ?er agitation, >o that kings, queens, bishops, knights and all tue smaller i fry tt?nt rolling over the room. Meanwhile I followed the old gen tleman ipto the front parlor-that horrid room wherein everything was ; buried either in chintzes or yellow musKn, and where a fire tfas i lighted more than once a year ; here he opened the trenches, nc gril/, hat collectedly i I calmly, d minedly, informing methat his di ter could never be- -mine, for th; was a toi 3 rab ly wealthy man, he had ."oresplvied never |o ^ec child to.ono who was not possess' a portion equal to her own.

" Ttier'mah "whose: Telly 'cbai is his own, and whose only pay is seven shillings and sixpence a canil ot marry my heiress." He laid a long stress on the word, and I don t ' know what sessed me, but ? replied : " And what may be the ex of your present wealth Mr. Mart: The question was certainly a 1 rude one, but the old gentleman not teem to regard it as such,, foi answered-simply : " Well, three months ago I .?4,00$ in the Bank, of Australia, I took it all out ' and expended i the purchase of. additional stock improvements for my farm ; J .? say I am worth altogether ?12,( and. Gertrude will be the fiole'pbs sor when I die." "Then you don^t, object to me myself, Mr. Martin, but only befia I am poor?" I ?aid, bitterly. " Just BO, my boy. I object principle ; but, to show you tba bear no personal animosity, coule i tie k?fchen, j?nd. we/will honor.y last evening amone us by a glass my best grog, and my -best toba< such as you have not seen for mi a long day." " Stay a moment," I Cried, " w ? air rich as you, - Mr. Martin,- wo you giv? me your child ?" "Ave, that I would, lad, ri| willingly," was the reply. w And directly I am as rich you, if Gertrude is then single, v you consent to our marriage?" persisted. " Aye, verily, I will on my m of honor, Mr. Rufsh. But you ti of impossibilities, he added. " Whi are you going to realize a sudd fortune ?" Ab ! where was I ? My heart sa as I asked myself the question, a I followed the old man into the kite en in almost heartbroken .silence, bright fire was burning on the hean for grates are still very rare in Ai tralia-in fact-, they would be i adapted for the logs of red gum wo that form the invariable fuel. Presently the gi a ses and the pij were laid on che hibie, and I did n best to rekindle hope within u breast by the aid of Holland's ai Barrett's twist, but it was no good. On the other sido of the fire s Mrs. Martin, a comely dame of fif years, fully as broad as she was lon and with a mind wholly given to tl concern of the dairy and the mul>ir of orange marmalade. Gertrud knowing that something was wrou but scarcely guessing what, nestle up to ray side, and, to tay great jo her father did not rebuke ber. And thus we sat for a lone tim neither of ns speaking a word, bi listening to the falling rain and how ing wind without, and to the grei forest trees as their branches we] swayed and tossed by the blast. Anc oame another sound-a loud, yi soothing murmur, like the sighir of a summer breeze amid a cor wood. No one seemed to notice it but m and I only did so as wondering ho so gentle and so musical a murmi could make itself audible above tl uproar of the wind - and tempes Suddenly, however, there broke upo our ears the dashing open of a gat and a man's voice shouting : H Master Martin, if you value yoi: life, look sharp ! Tb?river bas oye; flown its banks, and the waters ai out." Then we heard the splash, splasl .splash of horses' feet, as the warnin visitor rode away. "Water out! Impossible!" 'mu? tered -the old farmer. "? Why blet my heart, the river was not on a lev el with the banks by some inches tin morning, ami we've had no rain t speak of since." " You. don't know what weather i bas been among the mountains, Mi Martin," I said. "And-hark!, pu your ear to the floor; Heavens ! Th warning was a timely one. We hav not a moment to lose." We all bent our heads down am listened, and now we could bear hollow, gurgling sound under ou feet, and lil tie jets of spray leape< up from between the crevices of tb flooring. . 0 The house, acoordineto the custon I in the colonies, was built , on piles and thus the down-stairs rooms-wen about four feet from the grbund, be tween .which and} the flooring the an gry waters were now fretting am: turning, and dashing against, thi stout woodwork with a momentarjjj increasing power. The women began to cry ; tue far mer was too stupefied to move. "This will never do," I said, "then is not a moment to lose. I can take one of you upbehind me on my horse and I know that Carlo and I will get through it somehow. The rest ha.d better get up stairs-or, if possible on the roof-and with the first peer, of dawn i'll send a boat to brine yoi off. Now, who am I to take charge of ?" I was very much afraid he would bid me take the old lady, but to mj g-*eat relief both the parents cried out: ' . - " Save Gertrude 1" I lost no time in acting. I. flew down the four steps that led to th? garden, ?nd with the water above my ' Naoole?n boots, made my way to the ' stable. Mine was the only steed there-for- Australian settlers seldom stable * their horses-and he, pooi fellow, was very miserable and fright ened. I did not stop to reassure him, but led him round to the house-door in a minute, and then Gertrude, after bidding a weeping adieu to her par? !?" - i 11 . ente, sprang np behind me, and a* we dashed. It was indeed, a wild, fearful nigl the moon shone brightly, but ev( minute or two its light was obscui by black, pall-like clouds,, that vu teeming, with ,mad velocity acr peisky, and then it was ?so 'idark could not see my horse's head bef< me. ' In the brief intervals of ghasi white light, I could, see that we .wi surrounded by 4 ?e?; 'of gaters,.- a that scarcely a speck of dry' land' v, to(be seen. j.True^hey were as i Very shallow,' scarcely above Carl knees, but I knew how rapidly,sth would deepen,-and T-digged!thel go horse in the direction of the town. Gertrude's arm encircled my wai and'she ? clung tightly to me . wi fear. ' Often I turned iny ; head speak to her a few words of e'ncoi; agement and hope, but I was'too an ious to secure her. safety and my ov to say much. . She was warmly wrapped up ? snawls and wraps, and as she was i excellent horsewoman, I had no fe; of her faUjng off, ?hough the w? was blowing hard 'enough ?tp ..yvhi her from h er " seat. Before we had got more than mile .from ,the farm, the rain recoi menced with redoubled .fury, .and. : a few;moments}we were^wet thrqug] i/Th?'wind, toopgrew '?rc?n a gale1 to hurricane, and amid the continuo! '.roar of -the thunder and flash of ti pale lighting through the air, we no and then heard 'a mighty crash, an some aged monarch of the plain fe prone upon the earth. v. Suddenly a flash of, lightning dar eil right in iront ofiQaxlo's; eyes, an with a short of fear, he reared nearl Upright; . "Hold fast, Gertrude!" I criet endeavoring to throw my right an around, her to keep her from slippin off. I was too late-she had fallen. heard a splash in the water, a cn and the darkness hid her from m sight. Just, however, as I was abou to give way to despair, another flas revealed ,her to be standing ami the flood, and not a dozen yards dh tance. I spurred toward her, and pres ently she was again on Carlo's broa* back. The excitement of '-his event, an the turning of my horse, round am round, had made me forget the prop er direction to the town, so that w now rode on not knowing whither w were heading. Meanwhile, the flood grew deepe each moment, and presently I discov ered that Carlo was swimming. I hat not felt fear until now ; but I mus say that whichever way I guided rn] eli arger he Could not'touch thSiground I knew that, weighted as he was, hi could not keep afloat for long, an( each moment he seemed to sink deep er and deeper in the water. At this critical juncture of affair the moon shone out again, and light ed np the scene ns though it had beer broad daylight, Far as the eye coule reach, not a speck of dry ' land wa; now 'visible: out. to my great joy, ] perceived", close by, a bluegum tree whose-boughs were so disposed as tc be easily scaled. " Do you think you can climb thal tree, Gertrude?" I asked. "It y our only chance of preserving oui lives now." She answered feebly in the affirma tive, and with some little difficulty I swam Carlo alongside. Und?r the tree he regained his footing, and 1 was glad of this, as he was enabled to stand steady for my poor little companion to climb into the branches from his back. When she had accomplished this feat, I took off his bridle, so that he should not catch his feet in it, if he bad to swim for his life, and then Gertrude and I got some twenty-feet higher up in the blue-gum, and paus ed to rest. Shawls and wraps had long ago fallen off her and been lost, and now poor Gertrude was exposed to all the inclemency of the weather, in the low-necked, short-sleeved dress she had worn during the evening. How her plump, white, and beau tifully moulded arms were scratched by the rough tree bark in climbing, and as the rain poured down through the unprotecting vertical 'foliage, the drops glittered on her polished shoul ders, and trickled down her plump, snowy bosom. ? " Why, Gertrude, you look a veri table Undine," I said, arid, having no cape or overcoat io protect her, I doffed my uniform aud made her put it on. We then sat side by side, and put ting my arm' around her ne?k, I told her all about my interview with her father that evening. " And did papa say that when you were as rich as himself he would let me marry you, Willie?" she asked. " Yes, Gertrude, he gave me his word of honor to that effect)" I re sponded. " Then\he won't break it," she re plied. " Poor papa J this night has made him a beggar. All his money was invested in improvements on his land, and an increase of stock. It is all lost now, sci you. may claim me sooner than you thought for, Willie." This view of the case had never struck me before, and I nearly jump ed off the gum tree in, I fear, a mosb selfish ecstacy of delight. I was bound to control myself, however, and exert all my attention in 'com forting Gertrude, who, now that the excitement attending our escape waa over, began to entertain a thousand fears concerning the fate of her pa rents. . t A . I . J. .v/ >I I At last I succeeded in convincing her that it was a matter of impossi bility for the flood .to;cover the house before rescue' came 'in the' morning; and thereupon she became composea, and our thoughts reverted to ouV own hopes and fears, and amid the rain and howling Wind, and the still rap idly-rising waters below, she nestled I in my arms, and we talked of love1 ' until the cp)d,r-gray ?law.n-aroused us ifrom our'aoVentrniVaVeti of bliss, i Well, then? to makealongstoryBhqrtj after another thfree hours'; perch, Ve perceived some boat coming from t^f direction of Wiud$or, and by the ajc bf a brilliant scarlet handkerchief that I fortunately possessed, we ? naled them, attracted their .attenti and'Were in'dn^ time takdnjonboa . .

STRICKEN ABBEVILLE.-The pictu resque village of Abbeville has -.-.gain been ravaged by fire. Just a year ago the northeast side of the public square was laid in ashes, and in No vember last Granite Range, one ol the finest blocks of business houses lp the State, was burned to the ground. The third fire broke ort on Monday night, and has destroyed six fine stores. lt is hard for any people to keep up their courage in the face of so many reverses, hut, the citizens of Abbeville come bf good stock, and no siege bf troublescatf loag.overnwfe them. They have the hearty sympa thy of theil ?elloyv-cit?2iena; .tbe^opre so, because the conflagration in Ab beville, like that in Kingstree, is. the iverk of the incendiary!

The recent rains that caused, the " big rise" in the rivers and creeks in North Georgia flooded Rome and washed away fences and mill-dams, and caused two creeks near the town of Rockmart, in Polk coiihty, to over run their banks and sweep off all be fore the surging stream. The two creeks unitep. Near the junction, on the farm of Colonel Seaborn. Jones, was a small wooden .house inhabited by Mrs. Moore,- ? widow * 'lady,, and her children. The house was situated near the bank of the creek. In rear, and between the house and a neighbor's, was an old slough, made by some former rise in the creeks, but passible-on all ordinary occasions. The water above the confluence of the two streams carried "away several milldams, and came down in a huge wave at night. The voice made by the mad,' roaring, foaming current aroused Mrs. Moore. On going" to the door, to her astonishment, she found the water in the. yard, and ap parently rising with great rapidity. Not pausing to think, but dreading being carried away in the house down stream, she sought safety in flight. But the slough was filled' with a stream of water, pouring down with i great velocity.- Over on the other shore was the house of a neigh bor. If she coulij reach that she would be safe. Her oldest boy, a lad of some thirteen or fourteen years of age, being an expert swimmer, tkougnt he. would swim across and secure assistance for his terror-stricken mother and children. He 'made the1 effort, but his little sister, who did not Wish te be left behind, clung to him. The brave boy essayed the 'bold and dangerous task bf trying to cross with'her clinging to'him. A gentlemau on tile other side shouted' to him to gb back, that ' assistance; would be rend?red. "But "the din of clashing waves and roar of turbulent waters prevented the Heroic boy from hearing the shoots. The 'current bore hint.d^.wn.wijK.,frightful veloci ty, and in a few jnbments the spirits of brother and "sister* emerged from their earthly caskets-Mo rise np norne on angel wings. The grief stricken mother remained, the waters soon subsided,- and the bodie& ol- the brother and sister Wore found on the banks clineihg~ teether.

A number of Southern members of, the .Senate and House, met' in th? marble room of the ' Senate for the purpose of joining iq the demand for a .Southern representative in the Cabinet. They finally agreed upon Senator Pool, of North karolina, and appointed a Committee pf three, Messrs.

When the chair (Senator Sawyer, of South Carolina) named the.

He saw that a rea son was expected, and he gave it. He said that the relations between himself and'the Executive were such -as to prevent comtuuhication between them except in cases of absolute ne cessity. He warrhed into the subject of pers?nal opposition to fhe. Presi dent until he could not conceal his bitterness'. The effect upon his au dience was to create a feeling of gen erali disgust. , The .Chair, quietly sub stituted Mr,. Rainey,. another colored Congressman from South Carolina.
