SOME ]DAY. Some day the sun will be shining On the rose trees and poppies in bloom: And some day the moaning and pining Will stoo at the door of a tomb. Some day the heart's happy fullness Will yield to reckonings of pain Some day life's heaviness-dullness Will drop from the poor fevered brain. The strife and the toil, the defending, The man at w.r with the few, Must all on some day have an ending The falae put away from the true. Some day the dream will be broken, Some day the veil will be rent down, Some day the bitter words spoken, When the bright ihings have faded and flown. Syme day the years will be going] On, on, with new pledges-they must; And some day the grass will be groring O'er hearts then but pitiful dust. But the sobbing, the moaning, and crying, Or the storm, tho' it battle and rave, Ne-er shall rouse us, so peacefully lying So far from it all in the grave. And done with all hoping and grieving, The love and the hates pased away; We shall joy to know we are leaving Earth's empty possessions, some day. BLOODY NEGRO RIOT IN SAVNNA a.-On Monday last, there occurred in Savannah, a murderous, bloody and disgraceful iegro riot. The negroes, under special instructions it is believed, from Radical leaders, persistently tried, during Satur day, Sunday and Monday, to force them selves into the street cars reserved for the whites. The negroes, as a general thing ride but little upon the street cars, and the object of their aggressions was vcry plainly seen-an electioneering Keheme of the Radicais. On Monday evening, at 8 o'clock, things came to a crisis by a mob of armed negroes firing into the cars. And hereupon ensued a scene of blood and excitement which lasted almost through the entire night. The negroes behaved with blind ferocity. In one case a lady and three children, sittirg on their piazza, were fired upon and all four dan gerously wounded. At latest accounts from Augusta, the excitement had died out and all was quiet.-Edgefield Adver tiser.

GLENN'S SPRING, SPARTANBURG Co., S. C., U July 31st, 1872. a OVERLAND TO GLENN'S. DEAR READER.-Agreeably to promise to keep you advised of our journeying, it and whatever of interest or incident com ing under observation, and having rest- t ed, and in part recovered from the fa- I tigue and shaking up of the trip from Newberry to this place, we make a be ginning this morning, under the influ- J ence of a delightful temperature, (the ef- 0 fects of a Bne rain fall and severe thun- ' der storm), and while waiting for the 1 sound of the bell which calls to breakfast . and the irrepressible fried chicken. But a first of the journey. We have been & S made acquainted with many griefs, have suffered sorrows and endured pains, but during the Friday and part of Saturday a of last week, the time occupied in get ting over the road, the amount of tribu lation considerably exceeded f3rmer ex- t periences. Only a few fortunate citizens t had the pleasure of seeing b THE DEPARTURE of the caravan which held S. and our self, and traps, as it left in the cool of p Thursday evening, July 25th, and per haps they envied us, but they did not see later, and towards nmght, a couple of disgusted travellers looking at a cast tire, grumbling at the luck and wondering if it could be got back, and if so if another would not fall off. Luckily the accident happened near Mr. Geo. Sligh's our des tination for the n,ght, and help soon be ing obtained comfortable quarters were ad. The loss of that tire, however, was nothing as compared to the NEXT DAY's EXPERIENcE, and particularly that of the morning, which was over the longest, roughest, rockiest lanes, and in the hottest of swel tering suns. From the time our flea bitten grey mare was given the rein, till we reached the Herndon quarters, about eleven o'cock, not a breath of air was afoat, nor was there any shade. It was terrific. Here we rested and gave the mare a blow, and were gratefully re freshed by a delightful breeze, which faned the fevered brows of two as TIRr.D HSORTAL.S as ever attempted the overland route to Glenn's. At twelve the hospitable dwelling of Mr. Henry Whitmire hove in sight, and we leave the reader to imagine our feel ings. Cool water, internally as well as externally applied, a nice dinner, rich milk and a rest, added to the generous welcome received, gave us new strength for the afte',oon's ride of eighteen miles, which, after crossing at Tucker's ferry, ly out before us ere w*e could pull tip at Cross Keys, thi residence of Mr. Warren Davis. Of that ride we propose to say but little, as aside from heat and fatigue there werc ONLY Two iNCIDENTS worth mentioning, and one of them we dare not allude to through fear of being done for. The other, however, we feel free to relate: it was about four o'clock, we had just got over a two mile lane of hot rocks, het atmosphere and hotter sun, when a cool oasis came in sight, a shady grove, a comfortable looking man sion, and a pleasant~ looking gentleman lounging on the outside. The mare knowing our feelings stopped. A short gossip ensued, na.tes were interchanged, and other trifles which cost nothing, when the question was asked if we could get some water for beast arnd man. Well, we blush to own it, but this pleasant looking gentleman, lying back in the shade, kindly informed us that his spring was soME DIsTANCE from the house, arnd that as the branch was just down there, pointing with his inger, we could reach the latter much quicker than his spring. We went for that branch, over hill and dale, ruore rocks, long, hot lanes, and continued to go, and went on, and at length it was reaced. It was fully two miles from where that nice looking gentleman stood out in the shady grove, near to his plea sant bomne and purling stream. Now he either -LIED LIKEE A TROO?ER, or his spring must have been at an ex tremely unhandy distance. Could the mare have spoken, she would have join ed in condemning his unfeeling and un gentlemanly conduct. The branch water[ suite thea -nim..l but nnt the oncnnants the caravan, so we pushed on and 2ched the Kys :t candle-light, and ver did tired traveiier welcome rest >re. Good supper, nice bread, sweet :k, and elegant beds, in a cool, open Dm, put us in pleasant frame for the eteen miles yet on hand, which after eakfast, (which was better than the pper,) was entered upon.

THE LADIES pecially are charming and kind, and by eir smiles and gentle graces make the hours ip awny on golden wings. Bless the ladies ways, at home and abroad. Our amusements here are not great in va ety, and ingennity is severely taxed to fill p the time which would necessarily hang ry heavy on us, if the imagination could )t be drawn on, and like a good bank be mnd always in funds. In the olden times hen money was plentiful, and our good Dople were better able to leave their homes i search of health and pleasure, and large, ay crowds of gentlemen and ladies resorted > this place, it was not so difficult toget the ays off, but the case is far different now, nd VERY MUCr as to be made out of very little. We called n a lady the other afternoon, and was not ly entertained but instructed by her hour's astime--the catching and killing of hornets. he operation was new to as and may be to ur readers, therefore we will describe it, nd as these annoying insects are as thick s leaves in leaves in Valambrosa this sea )n, for one can go nowhere without getting to their midst; it will not only show them new and easy process to destroy them, but fford considerable pleasure. It is a sport specially ADAPTED TO LADIES o, and it is gratifying to our feelings to be tus able to impart the inforation. And his is the way: Take a straw from your room, the larger the better, for it is a little angerous to get two close to the game you re to seek; then provide yourself with a 'in. Thus provided with the implements, a ood fat fly is next needed. This is easily aptured. if the lady is dexterous; then in ert the pin point foremost into THE ABDOMEN f the fly- the operation may be a little ainful to the little fly, but if your nerves are ;ood, you need fear nothing; next insert the >in into the straw. Now you are ready for dr. Hornet, and all you haye to do is to told the straw out at arm's length, and the tame will pounce down on the tempting ait, and cling tight and fast. Gracefully hen incline the arm inwards and downwards o the foot, which at tbe same time is being ~enty raised, underneath which place the ffensive Hornet. The intelligent reader will now know just as well as if told, that it s only necessary to bring the foot down and he job is done. Then repeat. We confess o deriving much entertainment at witnessing he operation, for we are obliged to admit hat it is dull here. Some of the cabins are occupied, and we cre pleased to say by very agreeable fami is, and each one with a happy complement f ladies of ages ranging from SWEET sixTEEN zpwards, and if there were only boys enough :o occupy their attention, it might be better or them. But the old grass widowers on ind are thankful, uo doubt, that the pleas ires the gods give them arc not interfered vith, and enjoy the opportunites with rest, Thile those who arc blessed with the pias mee of their better halves, look on and sigh, xcpt at such odd times as they can slip tay from the observant eyes of their loving spouses.

We would not mislead them under alse promises, and in all candor admit that he old bill leading to the spring, though no steeper tma formerly, is, we believe, ROUGHER AND RIOCKtER han ever before, and before breakfast is a ast undertaking; but the doctors, and many >thrs who profess to know, maintain tha1 :he exercise though it weakens the knees, and is otherwise disagreeable, is good for ne's wholesome.

A Lettr from Cnarles Sumner. - 2 DECLARES FOR GREELEY-GOOD ADVICE TO THE COLORED .EoPI.a-GHANT'S AD -dINISTRATION A VAILLE-A STRONO LETTER. f it WASnIsGTO, july 30. Mr. Sumner has written a long letter 1o a number of colored citzens who late ly addressed him. Mr. Sumner declares for Greeley. Among his strongest para raphs is the following: "The present position of the colored citizen is perilous. le is exposed to in jurious pressure, when he needs support, but I see no early extraction excet in the way proposed. Let him cut adrift from the managers who would wield him merely as a political force, with little re gard to his own good, and bravely stand by the candidate, Greeley, who has stood by himself. The Democrats unite with him, so much the better. The as sociation once begun must naturally ripen in common friendship and tiust. Ile addresses his correspondents as gen tlemen and fellow-citizens. le says he delayed answering that he might reflect and freely inform himself, Ile has lis tened to much from both sides, but his best judgment is now in harmony with his early conclusion. le is touched by the appeal his correspondents made. He has been the friend of their race, and is glad they consider him the special advocate of their rights. They do him ample jus tice when they believe that his counsel at this critical juncture would be free from personal or partisan prejudice. Mr. Sumner contrasts the two candi dates. Greeley was born in poverty, and educated bimself in a printing office. Grant,fortunate in early patronage,became a Cadet at West Point, and was educated at the public expense. One started with nothing but industry and char2cter ; the other with a military commission. One was trained as a civilian ; the other as a i soldier. Horace Greeley stood forth as a reformer and an Abolitionist. President Grant enlisted as a pro-slavery Democrat, and at the election of James Buchanan fortified by his vote all th- pretensions of slavery, even tile Dred Scott decision. Greeley, from early life, was earnest and constant against slavery, full of sympa thy with the colored race, and always foremost in the great battle for their I rights. President Grant, except as a soldier, summoned by the terrible acci dent of war, never did anything against slavery, nor has he at any time shown any sympathy with the celored race. Horace (reeley earnestly desired that the colored citizen shculd vote, and ably championed impartial suffrage; but Pres ident Grant was on the other side. Be yond these contrasts, which are marked, it cannot be forgotten that Horace Gree ley is a person of large heart and large understanding and strived to support human rights. Mr. Greeley's industry, general knowledge, amiable nature, and above all, honesty, which no suspicion tias touched, are maintained. None of these things appear in President Grant. His great success in war cannot change his record toward the colored people; while there are antecedents showing that in the prosecution of his plans he cared nothing for the colored race. Mr. Sumner prefacing that the story is painful but it must be told gives the history of Saint Domingo and Hayti, where he outraged eight hundred thlous and blacks, who were engaged in the great experiment of self- government. Here follows a history of attempted an nexation. Hie alludes to the disrespect with which Grant treated Fred DouglaRs, who, by ipvitation, was one of the Saint Domingo Commissioners. Grant has little capacity or industry in protecting colored people, and insuring peace at tbe South. After violating the Constitution and international law, to insult the black Republic, and setting an example of in subordination, he has not been in a con dition to rebuke law-breakers. Mr. Sumner then considers the present position of the two candidates. Each was nominated by a Republican Con vention. He lauds the material compos ing the Cincinnati Convention. Com paring the character of the supporters of the two candidates, he says the country knows two well the Military and the Senatorial Rings, the Custom House Rings through which the President acts. Such supporters are a very poor recomn mendation. He says it is idle to say that Horace Greeley and the Republicans who nominated him at Cincinnati are any less Republicans because the Democrats uni ted with them in the support of cher ished princi.ples, and the candidate who represents them. Mr. Sumner says the hardihood of po litical falsehood reaches its extreme point w-hen it is asserted that under Horace Greeley the freedmen will be re enslaved, or that colored people will in any way suffer in their equal rights ; on the contrary they have in his election, not only the promises of the platform, but also the splendid example for a full generation, during which he has never wavered in the assertion of their rights. To suppose that Horace Greeley when placed where he can do the most good will depart from the rule of his honest life is an insult to reason. It is none the less idle to suppose that Democrats supporting Horace Greeley, expect or desire that he should depart from those principles which are the glory of his character. They have accepted the Cin cinnati platform with its two-fold promi es,and intend in good faith to maintain it. Gentlemen, in thus answering your :wo inquiries, I have shown why you, as coNred fellow-citizens, and also all who would uphold your rights and save the colored race from indignity, should re fuse to sanction the re-election of the President and put your trust in Horace Greeley. I ought to add that with him will be associated, as Vice-President, B. Gratz Brown, whom I have known for years as a most determined Abolitioni,t. The two together will carry into the Na tioe.G Government an unswerving devo ton to your rights,not to be disturbed by partisan, dictation or sectional pre.judice. Besides, all this which may fitly guide you in determining between the two-can didates, it is my duty to remind you, that as citizens of the UJnit'ed States, and par t of the country, your welfare is in - dissolubly associated with that of the whole country, who while all are pros perous, you will be gainers. Therefore, while justly careful of your own rights, you eannot be indifferent to the blessings Iof good government. It is for vou to e nnsider, whether the time has not conme frsomething better than the sword, and whether a character like Horace Greeley, does not give stronger assurance of good Goernment, than can be found in the in suter of the colored race, already famous for the r ings about him and his plain in aptitude for civil life. Speaking now for myself, I hav-e to say that my vote will be given for Horace Greeley; but in giving it, I do not go to the Democratic party, nor am I any less a Republican ; on the contrary, I am so much of a Republican that I cannot support a candidate whose conduct in civil life shows an incapaci ty to appreciate Republican principles, Iand whose .dmninistration is marked by actr, of delinquency, especially toward the colored race, by the side of which the allegations on the impeachment of An LOCAL.

Bluford Meadows and Wm. Johnstone, the two Democratic negroes, so-called, ar rested under the enforcement act some four months ago, have at last been released on bail. Some malicious chap has suggested to us that if they had not been "so-called" they would have got out sooner, which is evi dently a mistake, for they got out as soon as they could. Watermelons are plenty, fried chicken dit to. We hope the Senior has plenty wherever lie may be, and that when he returns to his labors in the sanctum he may be less bilious than formerly, and may be able to look out more cheerfully upon the world. The poet says, "Man's inhumanity to man Makes countless thousands mourn." This may be true, b.ut the liver has a great deal to do with it. We would suggest to our City Fathers that they provide places for the country people to hitch their horses to when they come into town. We cannot prosper unless they come to see us often, and when they do cuime it is not at all pleasant to them to be fined, or to lay themselves liable to be fined, for hitch lug their horsets to fences and other unlawful places. We have heard a good deal of comn plaint from our country friend.l. Let us have peace. Sergeant Miller, with his water cart, has been doing good service during the dry, hot, dusty weather, for which he has our sincere thanks. If all public servants were as faith ful as he the good time so long coming would be here. Abundant rains have fallen and the water cart is no longer necessary. We arc glad and sorry both. Glad that we have had the rain, for it was much needed; sorry that Mr. Miller's occupation is gone, for it was re freshing to see the water sprinkled over the dusty streets.

Another change of far more importance and sign ifi cance to the whole country, will soon take place. When Mr. Grant's present lease of the White llouse expires, he cannot renew it. A new tenant better qualified to manage that institution will be installed in his place. Mr. Calcutt in retiring, has our best wishes for his prosperity aiid happiness. We know that he will succeed wherever lie goes. t)f*Mr.(Grant when he retires, we can only sa,'"reqluiescat in pace," though we doubt very much if he can. The political campaign is growing quit4 warm. On last Wednesday evening an en thsiastic nmeting of ikepublicans was held in front of the Court IHouse, and several pecchies wcre made. One poor fellow, a whitd man, as we are iinfornmed-not having had the happiness to hear his remarks-being completely carried away by his enthusiasm cried out, "down with the white man and up with the negro.'' We will not give his name, as he may have father, mothet or other relatives still living, who yet have a lingering affec:ion for him: but it seerns to us that any wiuT man who can say "down with the white mar. and up with the negro,' is low enough already to satisfy any reason able ambition. But every man to his taste. Why down with anybody? The air ad the s-unshine, the rains anid the dews, arec free tc eery one. The world is large enough foi all; and why cannot all enjioy in peace the good gifts so bountifully given to all? Can not all rise together? Away with all such damned nonsense, as down with anybody. There's room enough for all, and all may be free, and independent, and happy, if they will.

They nerformed at Greenwcod on last Thursday, to the great delight of the assembled thou sands. We hope that they will become a permanent institution. Professor Ollever deserves praise for liaving in so short a d time brought them up to such a state of proficieney. They cannot, however, sleep on a bed of roses; the Independents are en- a dowed with marvellous perseverance; and practice, as is well known, makes pe0ect. The colored band, led by their indefatigable maestro-Prof. Davis-are making rapid r progress, and haviug some members of ex- 0, cellent musical talent, will be formidable ri- 8 vals. Let the rivalry be a friendly one, and let the big horn look to his laurels. Police man G-- is a fue tooter, and not to be sneezed at. A cornet is about the best use brass can be put to, and the taking of horns of brass may keep some of our young men from taking too many horns of--rye. TnE "PupPY" ScnuRz.-We are inform- a ed that at a political meeting last - night s Judge Hoge spoke of Senator Schurz as a red-whiskered Dutch puppy. As to the "red- i whiskered" we would remark that there is f no accounting for tastes; the Edit)r feels a little touchy on the subject, and therefore ventures no further obse,vations. Let the 'Dutch' pass for a snarl; but as to the 'puppy' part we would say that the self-same puppy has barked so loadly and effectively as to arouse the whole household (the American E people' so as to have them fully prepared to keep robbers and thieves away from their premises. It is even believed by some peo ple, that the self-same puppy once or twice snapped successfully at the Chief's calves, and made the blood come, not to speak of the damage done to his nether garments. if the "puppy" has shown himself so staunch whtma. not be expected from the full grown dog ? We would add that the colored band, doubtless overcome by the heat and the coiemnity of the occasion, did not perform quite so well as usual. Still, the sensible men and all the women considered that por tion of the programme the better part of the performance.. hOT! HOT!! HoT!!!-Well! hot is no name for it. Our thermometer has burst and boiled over, and we have to go by our individual feelings, which said feelings indi cate several degrees above zero. We had an invitation to accompany Capt. Hail as histo rian in his North Pole Expedition: we laugh ed at the idea then, we are extremely sorry sow that we did not accept the proposition. Work is not to be thought of, sleep is out of the question, watermelons disagree with our Iconatitution, ice water invites sunstroke. We wish our exhausted body could be trans ported to the land of Coleridge's "Ku K lux Klan." sardrie a "Where AIph the sce ie a IThro' caverns measureless to man, Down to a sunless sea," in which sunless sea we long to lave our ,burning editorial limbs. Ran,ran a kingdom for a drizzle! Wel since writing the above we have had a drizzle without the payment of a kingdom on our part. We feel, thereby, highly re freshed in common with horses, cabbages, dogs, tomatoes and other animals. Our journey to the sunless sea is, in consequence, postponed until further notice. THE SONS OF TEMPERANCE.-We were pleased to see the gathering of our young friends who are engaged in the Temperance cause, on last Tuesday, 30th ult. It is a re lief in these days of political excitement to find people pay attention to matters which, to the community, are eventually of more importance than the elec tion of a President. intemperance entailed utpon us the sequels of the war has assumed such enormous di mensiotis that it threatens to bankrupt out whole social existence. Let M: those who can takena sip ini moderation sneer, nor those whose constitution may, with their est-ab lished htitts, require a stimulant, discour age te efforts of our young men to build up a system which needs only the free air of Heaven, the glorious sunlight and the exhil arating motion of the body to stimulate into full exercise all the mental powers, and the full enjoyment of the beauties of nature and art and a delightful social itercourse. Those natural stimulants will be found to suffice to the young at leas t. A procession was formed, headed by our own Silver Cornets in their new uniform of scarlet jackets, blue breastplates and black shining leather belts. Our Cornets enjoy al ready an enviable reputation under their ac comaplished andl efficient instructor, Professor Ollever. Our friend H-, with his immense ltamsnoodler (being no musician we are not able to give the technical name of his instru ment':, might excite the envy of the leader of the Republican baud of France, or of Herr Saro, of the Imperial Band of Germany. Thus musically piloted the Society of our young friends marched through town to the rear of Mr. Silas JTohnstone's, where speeches were delivered by Professor Carlisle, of Spar tanburg, Rev. E. J. Meynardie, and our young to wnsman, J. F. Spearman. Esq. In disposition prevented us from attending: but from the information we h'e received from friends who were present, we understand that the speeches were well calculated to in crease the interest in the cause of Temper anc, and to stimulate it into renewed activi tin this place. We have heard Prof. Car lisle on fotmer occasions and we are satis fied that he sustained his reputation as one of the ablest and most cultivated lecturers on any subject connected with the physical and mental development of the race. We know that it is always a rare treat to receive in struction from one so well qualified to im-. C'DAILUTr, N.

It. fwr A PERILOUS SEASON. -Glorious and delightful as the Summer reather is, its tropical heat is a severe trial o the vital powers. Even the strongest re sometimes prostrated by its effects. he common phrase applied to this con ition of the body is "general debility." ow, general debility arises from, .nd in Iudes a variety of niments. The liver is nore or less affected, the bowels are either onstipated or too much relaxed, the stom c Ih but half performs the work of digestio, le appetite is poor, and tl e spirits depress ~d. This is what is called general debility. t is a general disarrangement of all the >hysical functions, and requires as a remedy medicine that will regulate them all. ostetter's Stomach Bitters is specially adapted to this puarpose. Its general op ~ration is not confined to a single organ. f the liver is affected, it restores its tone. i the stomach is torpid, it regenerates it. f the nerves are tremulous and weak, it >races and reinforces them. if the mind, hich ever sympathizes with the body, is gloomy and despondent, it relieves .the lifficultv, and soon brings the whole me ehani<n of the body in.o harmony with theC laws of health. There is nto civilized nation in the West an IIemisphere in which the utility of Hos etter's S:omnach Bitters as a tonic, cotrrec ive, and anti-bilious medicine, is not known and appreciated. Throughout the Tropies it is considered, both by the people and the profession, the standard specific. While it is a medicine for all seasons anid all climates, it is especially suited to the complaints generated by the weather, be ing the purest :tnzd best vcgetab!c stimulant in the world.
