Our Duty in the Present and
the Future.
The Revolution is complete. It
seems to us that a cup more bitter was
never givea to any people to drink
than was pressed to our lips. But we
drank it.. And we have borne the
consequences, whether patiently or im
patiently, our lives must testify. It
is not in hnman nature, nor was it in
ours, to bear the working of such a
bitter draught without many contor
tions of countenance and efforts to
resist or evade its effects. Some ef
forts we made; they were feeblh, fu
tile, vain. The power that overcame
us in the first place, was still present,
and still more powerful to crush any
efforts the victim might make. We
have acquiesced. We. have accepted
the situation. We write with a loath
ing horror of the expression. But we
have accepted the situation. The
cause so dear to the hearts of so many
brave and noble men, who died for it,
is dead-. Virginia, the mother of he
roes, sleeps in a nameless grave. Her
sister States lie dead and buried around
her. Their phantoms still linger
around azd haunt the places of their
graves. They, too, -will vanish. after
awhile, and what images or powers
will take their place we know not.
What duties are for us whose mo
thers lie dead and buried in the soil
beneath our feet ? Them we can
serve no i'ore. No longer with a ten
der reverence we can wait about their.
steps. Carolina, our mother, is dead.
We have mourned her. We reverence
her dead, perhaps more than we ever
did whilst living. But grief must be
laid aside. Tears avail not, and death
is better than a hopeless sorrow. We
live, and life's duties press upon us
with a stern demand for performance
which cannot be resisted or evaded.
Let us turn from the past, which can
never be changed, to that future which
is yet ours. We believe that our first
duty is to lay aside our grief. We
must turn from the grave where our
dead mother lies buried. She is dead
we can never revive her. Were she
only sleeping there might be some
hope that we could awake her, but she
is dead. Dead' Can she never awake?
No. never. Other States and nations
before she was born lived and died,
and their names only survive. They
comec back no more. We must, as
best we may, lay aside our grief, and
-go on resolutely to do that work which
the present and future demand. What.
are those duties and what are the ne.
uxaaids of the future?
We, for one, belie.% 14.. our first
great duty in tba lubare is to give our
whole atteaiti to the development
and increase of the material wealth of
the country. Political power has.pass.
ed from us,-.and we can never regain
it otherwise than through the power
d. wealth. Our exposures of the cor
raptions existing in the local and gen- e
eral governments are utterly vain and '
unprofitable. We are laughed at an<d.
despised for our pains. But let u .
not by peculation or speculation, hat a
by the steady and peaceiul parist of
ag.riculture and commerce, grow rich.;,
let us make our fields, and cities -and
villages teem with a real and la.sting~
prosperity, the result of our ent0rprise,
and you need not doubt that we will
then have a due share oj political
power, if we desire it. Li.et intellec
inal and religious eduestion go ha2d
in hand with our industrial pursuits,
and we may have a.future that need
not be ashamed to be placed side by
side with the illustrious past.1
Our views may be thought low and
sordid, but they are far otherwise.
There is a desire for wealth which is i
vulgar and mean and base. When it I
is sought for the splendor it may give,
or for the luxurious ease it may yield
its possessor, or the poer itnmay give I
to indulge in all mere sensual pleas
ures, or for its own sake to satisfy a
miuserly greed, which always proves la
insatiable. When it is sough tfor any
of~ these reasons, the fine gold has al- 1,
ways a dim and tarnished lustre. But a
when sought that it may be a means
of g:ood; that it may be instrumental
in the regeneration of a great people;
then it becomes sanctified to the high- f
est service and is worthily sought.
Such we would have it. We would a
have the best energies of the people, t1
the whole people, devoted to industrial
pursuits with this high purpose. feel- 3
ing assured that wealth is power, es- 11
pecially wealth that is purified by a
true intellectual and religious culture.
b labor beneath the dignity of the u
truie man and gentleman ? But why P
ask this question ? It is most assuredly
not so. We, who write this, disdain e
umr to labor with brain or muscle S
whenever the need demands it, and
we take no shame to ourself for so s,
deinr. But rather otherwise. We a
el1 th:it it adds to the manhood of
anuy man to front boldly the obstacles. r
whether physical or otherwise, that lie c<
i a thme path, and by steady and persist- "
euit efforts, eddquer or remove them, if t
. -uet m. rennval be nossible. No tb
mattcr about bl5od oi famnily. The
noblest blood is made ritore noble by
having, the me,-ntal tivnities made
Atroug and vigoruu; the musclc,
hard "and rigid as iron; the hands firm,
and able to grasp like a vice of steel,
by strenuous labor, whenever the use
demands it. What! shall a man
whose ancestors were leaders and kings
of the people, yield to the difficulties
that present themselves in this new
age ? If he does so he is an un*orthy
scion of a noble ancestry. They were
leaders because they possessed the
qualities that made them wo-,hy in
that age. The sous, to be leaders,
must possess the qualities -that make
them worthy in this new industrial
age. Therefore, let us at this time,
grapple with, and ove.:come or remove
those obstacles that oppose our ad
vance, as they conquered the special
difficulties that were in their way, for
so only can we become worthy of them.
If conquest or success be possible.
There can be no doubt here.
There is no lion in the path now,
except one of our own creation. The
way is open, or is oily obstructed by
such obstacles as a firm heart and
strong arm can remove. " Tribulatio
ditat" is not an uawise saying. And
we may realize it to the utmost extent.
And then when success is achieved;
when we stand upon the high ground
of victory, with what a proud satis
faction we can look back upon the
struggle of the past, and when our
work is done and we retire to rest we
can leave to our children an honorable
name and fame, a no ignoble heritage.

YIOUtain Lake-Bald Knob
The Cascade.
.. July, 1873..
afn. EDIToR.-Nar~ the summit of thel
Loftiest peak of the Alleghanies, and more
than 5,000 feer above the level of the sea, is ai
tittle lake. This is "Mountain Lake," the1
nost pictaresque spot in all South Western
Virginia. It was our good fortune to visit
his beautiful lake on the 1st of ,gJ, in
:ompany with a friend whom we wm1! call
tabbi Ben 0. At an early hour on the
norning of kie 1st, we mounted our gay
.nd fiery steeds and began the ascent of the
wountain, it being six mig to our destina
ion, and "up aill" all the ay. To most of
oui eaders this will seem incredible and a
'is "hill story," but it is a true one. The<
LRy previous it rained, and the atmosphere
ues perfectly clear and most delightfr.iy coM
*id refreshing. As we wended our way
ruund the mountain side, our friend related I
a me of his "mistakes," greatly to our
'musement, and greatly to his embarrass.
*ient, he being .a timid young widower oft
nine thirty summers. At every angle in the
oad, some new scene would burst upon our
nraptured vision, while the goal still lay int
be distance. Just as we reached the top of f
he mountain a scene far too sublime and ~
eantiful for our pen to portray, presented
361lf to our view. Just before us, and in a 1
ew feet, was a beautiful lake,with ten thous- I
,ud ripples playing upon its bosom, sparkling
ni the early rays of a Summer's sun. Upont
ca margin, harge and elegant mansions.- s
loming down from the everlasting hills, ona
I
oters'persed with the "myrtle and the ivy,"
,nd lost in the sporting waters of the lake.
'o our right lay Prospect Hill, surmounted
rith an observatory,* from whose pinnacle
oated an ensign upon the mountain breeze.
'o our left, and lifting its towering head
eavenward was Bald Knob. the highest h,
oint in Virginia. Here we halted a moment,
nd in silence beheld nature in all her beauty
nd grandeur.
At the Hotel we met Mrsa,(en. Haupt, of a~
'hiladelphia, introduced ourselves, delivered (
zessages, documents, &c., from Dr. D. F. B., "
od were cordially welcomed to Mountain u
take Hotel. Mrs. Haupt is a very excellent u
tdy, kind and attentive, and very entertain- a
ig. Gen. Haupt owns a large bondary of p
Lnd here, some 100,000 acres, all mountain
und, well timbered with the finest org'inal r
>rests, and splendid water power, to coniert tI
into lumber. There is also an abundare
r rich iron ore to be found, but the distance e
'om therailroad makes It impracticable to H
'ork mines at this time. The General and pl
Luily spend their summer months here, i
ieir winters in Philadelphia. But I have si
gressed, one word more, Mrs. Haupt is one MI
E the clevetest ladies we have met for lo, ti
sese many days, and her kindness to us a
ialI never be forgotten. She let us have d
er telescope, and away we went for Bald
nob. As we were about to rea.la the top,
abbi Ben 0. exclaimed;a "it sems like we rt
rc getting into another world." This ex-1n
resses my feelings at that moment better pi
tan any languageI can find. All around e
s, and above was nothing but heaven's it
wrest air. Casting our eyes down and to w
ze East, there for 200 miles, lay a chain of 4,
tountains, looking perfectly smooth and a
ren, in the distance. Securing our weary
:eeds, not to keep them from running off,
it to keep the wind from blowing them off gi
1is dizzy height, we at once proceeded tob
irvey our surroundIngs. To the West lay w
i anbroken forest, mountain rising after fa
ountain, as far as the eye could trace. To er
e South lay a moat stupendous diorama. th
a the North, and far in the distance, we.'
uld faintly see the Peaks of Otter, rising
sublimity above their neighbors. By the s
e of the telescope we could see several
wns at a great distance and distinguish all do
e n-rnminent bhlnHMn. It is said that the be
observer can see int!! four StateS frn this
point, and from the height it to xeis above
all o:e!;r yk. we do n.tdoat-r the veaci%t
of' the soy. It ik vet v cold here all thQ
time, and thnz) was ne,r the middle of the
day, when we found it disagreeably cool for
summer suits, and had to descend before we
were near ready, owing to the wind and
cold. It derives its name from the fact that
nothing scarcely will grow upon it. It is
covered with agrowth of oaks, very much
dwarfed, being only about 18 or 20 inches
high. There are huge boulders piled one
upon another, looking as though there might
have beeti a dreadful. upheaval in nature to
disturb them. They are stratafied and dip
to the South. Taking one last lingering
look into "the land of milk and honey,"
Clover Hollow, and wishing that we were
over there to eat some more of their fried
chickens and apple butter, we bid adieu to
Bald Knob.
Once more at the Hotel, we disposed of
our steeds, secured a boat, and set sail upon
the lake. "The Lady of the Lake," for such
was the name of our boat, glided noiselessly
upon the silvery surface. The scenery is so
enchanting, from the lake, that all the
beauties of Sir Walter Scott's "Lady of the
Lake" came vividly before our mind, and
we almost imagined ourself upon the placid
waters of Loch-Katrine. ' As we were cross
ing, our boatman pointed out to us large
trees st.itding erect in the bottom. The water
is perfectly clear, very cold, and has a brack
ish taste. Now, it may seem strange to you
and your readers to hear that there are trees
in the bottom of this lake, which is 75 feet
deep, and nearly a mile long. We will give
you the legend as tradition has handed it
down. It is said, that within the memory of
some of the oldes: inhabitants, the bottom
of this lake was perfectly dry, and that
through Its centre a small stream ran. Beside
this stream and beneath the huge trees that
now stud the bottom of the lake, the stock
raisers were accustomed to salt their cattle.
Large herds of the largest cattle collected
here to get their salt, and rest beneath the
inviting shade of the trees and enjoy the.
sociability of their bovine natures. The
weight of the cattle and the constant tramp
ing upon the yielding earth caused it to sink,
and the depression began to fill, being fed
by a host of little mountain springs and rills
mntil it assumed its present dimensions. It
was then called "Salt Pond," in memory of
the famous "Salt Lick" once there. "Pond"
aot being a very elegant sounding term for
much a romantic spot, a name appropriate to
'he picturesque and novel appearance of the
place was applied, hence, the name "Moun
ain Lake."
Many persons from the Sooth and even
'rom other sections come here to spend
heir summers. It is very quiet and secluded,
nd the atmosphere is delightful. There is
m elegant Hotel, with every accommodation
'or the conveniences of any who may be
lisposed to stop here. The sportsman can
iere find game in abundance to while away
nany an hour. The artist can here find
andsWloes of rare and surpassing beauty,
Mln. worthy the pencil of a painter. And
iere, lovers can find more convenient, quiet,
iice, retired, shady, cool, just the right kind
)f a place to whisper words of love, than all
Virginia put together. Get a boat, "Lady of
the Lake," "Fire Fly," "Will O'the Wisp,"
"Dart," or any other you may select, cross
;he lake to the "Cave," 'examine its
abyrinths, thon to "The Ramble," and if
rou don't feel a tender emotion arise within
tour breast, it will be your own fault, and
not that of natnre, for here she has spread
rverything in lavish profusiore, and invites
rou to this primeval Paradise to partake of
aer bounties and timies. Rabbi Ben 0.,
ny companion, thouttso loud one time
;bat I heard him. He thought, "oh, wh at a
lice place for courting."
But Dear Editor, we have again digressed,
rnd oh, what a digression. Let us return to
he Hotel, get dinner and visit "The Cas
ade." Our excursion had sharpened our
~ppetite, and we think we did justice to the
'lands that day. After dinner, and as early
.s we could get away, we rook up line of
ravel for " The Cascade," distant 31 miles.
Ve could perform only 3 mriles on horse
ack, the other had to be walked. It was
town a deep ravine, and through one of the
nost romantic dells we ever witnessed.
luge masses of rock rose mountain high
n all sides. The little bridges had been
rushed away by a !'te freshet, and Rabbi
ien 0. and myself had all the fun of "coon
ng logs" to cross the creek, to ourselves.
Ie proposed wading through, but we pro
osed walking over. We did not walk, but
sorter" crawled, rolled, slid, slipped or
omehow that way got across. Along the
ath-way there are comfortable seats erected
a rest and watch the course of the stream as
plunges over its rough, rocky bed. -"T'he
ascade,'?is.a rich treat to any who may'
ike the trouble of seeing it. To stand at
de bottom and look up. as it flows over
rom a precipice 75 or 80 feet high, is a sight,
nough to awaken the lofnress serttiments
rithin the breast of every beholder. There
a constant breeze stirring here, agitated
y the falling water. We rerret that we are
os able to say more about "The Cascadle"
at our limits are out. Eleven miles to go to
each Newport to fulfill an engagement in
e evening, Rabbi Ben 0. and I spur our
teeds and scamper away at a rapid pace,
nd ere the sinking sun had hid his brilliant
see behind the Western hills, we reached
fewport, Cites Co., Va.

The next day we left homec and did niot]

HAVANA, July 25.-The Republica
Espanola newspaper publishes an ap
peal from-the Republicans addressed
to citizen General Pelletan, denounc
ing the meeting which has been lately
held for the object of ameliorating
financial and commercial affairs in the
island. It declares these meetings
have accomplished nothing. They
have merely put off action in the
hopes that the Carlists or Alfonsists
would get into power. The Conserva
tives are the timid enemies of the
republic, and the services of Repub
licans, who are not to be despised, are
offered to the captain-general. The
address concludes thus: "Command
us and you will find us full of courage,
ready to -coinbat for liberty, order, the
integrity of the soil, justice and right.
Think well over this, citizen Pelletan,
and think of the words of our Savior,
'those who are not with me are against
me.'

School1 Cet-LM ::it ion.
I'. I O L )A A f). ,i that h1. N,O e hJCL1
witnes e ha this sCtii of the country
:ince the war, .cane off at the Academy
near the residence of lr. U. D. Siber, in
the North-eastern section of the County.
The exercises we-re of the iuo<t varied char
aeter, and the rehearsals in poetry, &c.,
showed rare skill and taste; both it, the
sciections thetselves and in their suitability
to the occasion- The whole of the exer
cises, and the harinonious co-operation of
the patrons of the school, showed an
awakening to the importance of the mental
training of the iising generation, and a
pecufIar interest on the subject in the uinds
of the pupils themselve-.
At the close of the exercises on the part
of the school, anl interesting and instructive
address was delivered by Maj. J. K. G.
Nance.
The subject, education, was naturally
suggested by the character of the occasion;
the views presented were broad and con
prelensive. A tie and impressive deliv
ery, an earnesness unusual,and the mark
ed attention accorded him, show, that al
though as yet unaccustoned to public
speaking, ie is by no means without power.
A pic-nie, the usual conconi'tant of such
occasions, followed with its flow of mlitth
and good hunor.
It is gratifying whenever we can find any
good resulting from our recent loss of pro
perty, and the disorganization of the former
structure of our society. We have an in
stance of this kind in the school -)f which %we
are speaking. The teacher of th; Academy
is one of that noble band of ladies who have
attempted to rouse themselves from the
gloom that has of late years settled upon us,
and have gone forth to battle earnestly with
life. A clear and comprehensive intellect,
one capable of developing a system, and
with versatility equal to adapting it to, and
harmonizing it wi4h, all the various shades
of individual disposition, has thus been call
ed into the service of the community. The
result is seen now, in a well organized, sys
tematic, and harmonious school, pupils really
;ympathetle and interested, and an apprecia
tive community; the result will be seen
years hence in an intelligent, refined, and
,levated public sentiment. The intimate con
tact of the young with a mind, naturally
righly endowed, with sentiments delicate
ind elevated, and chastened by an acquaint
ance with those writers who have for centu
ries past. given direction to English thought,
:annot but be productive of lasting good.
