MOTfilEiVS WAY? BY NANN1K A- mtPWO&TU. Oft within our little eottogo, A? tho shadows gently fall, Whilo tho sunlight touches softly Ooo iwoot faoo upon tho well, .pc wo gather oioso together, And lu hushed and teador tono, Ask caoh other's full forgiveness For tho wrongs that caoh havo done. Should you wonder why thia custom At tho ending of tho day, p Eyo3 and voioo would quiekly answor, "It was oneo our mother's wayt" If our home be bright and oherry, If it hold a welcomo true, Opening wido its door of groetiog To tho many, not tho few; If we share our father's bounty With tho needy, doy by day, 'Tlsbooause our hearts remember This was over mother's way. Sometimes when our hands grow weary, Or our tasks soom very long; When our burdeos look too heavy, And we doom tho right all wrong; Then wo gain a now, frosh oourugo, As we rise to proudly say: "Lot us do our duty bravoly, This was our dear mother's woy." Thus wo koop her memory precious, Whilo we nover ocaso to pray That at last, wheo lengthening shadows Mark tho ovening of life's day, They may find us waiting calmly To go homo our mothor's way! THE GIRL WHO SAVED THE GENERAL. For down tho Carolina coast lies tho lovely island of St. John, whore stood one hundred years ago, a noble briok mansion, with lofty poriioo and broad pi azza, It wos tho homo of Mr. Robert Gibbos and his bountiful young wife, ond thc groat house was full at all Reasons. Eight children had already como to this good couplo, and seven little adopted cousins Wera their playmates-tho orphan ohildron of Mrs. Fouwiok, sister of Mr. Gibbes. Ho himself was a cripple, and could not walk. In a chair which ran on wheels he was drawn daily over tho ploasuut' path, some times by tho faithful blaok servants, some times by tho still moro devoted ohildvcn, who tugged at tho rope like eo many frisky coila. Tho loveliness of the 6pot ' suited well its nomo of "Peaceful Retroat," by whioh it was known through all thc country. But in thoso troublous times it could not always romain "peaceful." In thu spring of 1779, tho British took possession of all tho soaboard. Gcnorol Provost marched up from Savannah and laid ??ego to Chor leaton. But heaving that General Lincoln was hastening on with his anny, ho struck his tents in tho night and retreated rapidly toward Savannah. Ho crossed thc Stone Ferry, and fortified himself on John Island, as tho island of St. John's was often oallcd. For weeks now tho noise of musketry oud heavy guns destroyed tho quiet joy nt "Peaoeful Rotroat." Tho children, in the midst of play, would hear the dreadful boomiog/?nnd suddenly grow palo and still. Tho eldest daughter, Mary Anna, was a sprightly, courageous girl of thirteen. She had the oare of all tho little ones, for her mother's hands wero full, in managing tho groat estate and oaring for her husband. Aftor a timo, the enemy determined to take possession of this beautiful placo. A body of British and Hessians quietly cap tured tho landing one midnight, and creep ing stealthily onward lilied thc park nnd surrounded tho house. At daybreak, tho io io a* 53 found themselves prisoners. Thon como trying days for the family. Tho officers took up their quarters in the mansion, allowing thc family to oocupy tho uppor story. John's Island was less than thirty miles from Charleston, and whon tho American officers in tho city heard that "Peaceful Retreat" had been oapturodby tho British, they determined to rcecuo it from tho onc mv Two largo r?allcys worn imf cdiotcly manned and equipped and sent to Inc plan tation, with strict orders not to fire upon \tho mansion. ' Sailing noiselessly up tho Stono River, ai dead of night the vessels anohorcd aaroast tho plantation. Suddenly out of tho. thick darkness burst a llamo and rear and thc shot carno crashing through tho British encampment. Tho wholo place was instantly in an uproar. Tho office rs in tho house Sprang from bcd, and hastily dressed ond armed. Tho family, rudely awakened rushed to tho windows. A cold raia was falling, abd soldiers, half clad, wore running wildly hither and thither, whilo tho officers wero frantically calling them to arms. Mary woko nt tho first terrible roar and fled to her mother's room. Tho oxoitablc negro SOrvantS uttered most piercing shrieks. Tho poor littlo ohildrea wero too fright ened lo scream, but clung, trembling to Mary. Mrs. Gibbes was in great distress. She know not, at first, whothcr it was an attack by friends on tho comp, oran assault on the house by tho enemy. Sho ordered tho sorvnnts to cease their wailing and dress thorned vos. Thon hor husband and tho ohildron woro proparod; and, whilo tho oannon bellowed in quick succession, tho noiso nround tho house grow louder and louder, tho father nnd mother consulted what was best to do. It was now o vident thal!tho attack wno by their own friends, nnd its object waa to dislodgo tho ooomy. But Mr. Gibbos did not know that tho hoaeo would not bo fired on ond ho advised instant flight. Ho was oarriod to his ohair, oud tho housohold sallied forth from a book door. , Tho scono was tcrriOo. Tho night was pHohy dork, and when, just ns they stopped out, a sheet of flamo bolohcd forth from tho -vessel, it seemed to bo almost againU thoir fflC?a. Tho roar shook tho groundV Tho troops wore too busy saving themselves to BOtioo tho fugitivos, and thoy pushod on au ovor tnvt i'iWM? pe* day, they may tocoi In ease the law ls not ohanged. We star tl fo? the following rooeons: \ First; The pledge required of our memb ??adv?cate and support suitable legisla^ reducing th? pay to throo dollars per cl ia an ampio guaranty ?hat our rnombors v. vvork fos tho rcdaolbn. Several of tho servants were near her, but cone of them scorned to noMeo her or hor burdens. The last horse hid boon oarried off that Very day, thor? was no escape but on foot. v Suddenly a ball oamo crashing., by them through tho' trccal Then a obarge of grape shot cut tho boughs ovorhead. They were in range of the gunal lt waa evident they had takon the worst direction, bat thero waa no help tor it uow-it was too late to turn baok. In her agony, tho mother cried aloud on Qod to proteot hor family. Mary hugged oloser tho child in her arms, and trembled so she could hardly koop up. Another oroshl The shot shrieked past them, striking treos in every dirootion. Tho assault was floree, tho roar incossont. Tho frightened family rushed on os swiftly as possiblo toward a friend's plantation, far baok from tho shore: but it was soon scon that that thoy would npt havo strength to roaoh it, oven if thoy wore not struck down by tho flying shot. Tho Americans wore pouring tboir Gre into theso woods, think ing tho enemy. would scok rofuge thero. Tho wrotohed fugitives oxpeoted ovory moment to be tho last. On tboy pushed through mud and r?iu and Boronia iig shot. j Soon they found tboy wore getting moro out of tho rango of tho gun?. They bogan to hopo; yotnow and thou n ball toro up tho treos around thom, or rolled fearfully aoross their path. They readied ono of tho houses whore their Cold bands lived, with uo ouo hurl; they wero over a milo from the monaiou, aud out of rango. Tho ne groes said no ahot hud como that way. Unable to ?leo further, tho family deter mined to stop herc. As soon as thoy cutcred Mrs Gibbcu felt her strength leuv iughcr, andsauk upon a low bcd. Chilled to the bone, dronohed, trembling with ter ror and exhaustion, tho family gathered around her. She opcucd her eyes and looked about. Sho sprang up wildly. "Oh, Mary!" sho oricd, whero is Jobo?" Tho littlo girl turned palo, and moaned: "Oh, mother! mother! he's loft!" She broke iuto crying. Tho negroes^ quickly sympathetic, began to wring their hands and wail. "Silcnoe!" said Mr. Gibbes, with stern but trembling voioo. Tho tonrs were in his own eyes. Thc little child now missing was very dear to thom all, aud moreover, was deemed a sacred charge, as ho was one cf tho orphnn childcron of Mr. Gibbes' .sister, intrusted to him on her death-bed. Thc wailing ceased; there was silence, broken only by nobs, and tho muster askerl: "Who is willing to go back for thc ohild?" No ono spoke,. Mr. Gibbes turned to his wife for counsel. As tho two talked in low loues, Mrs. Gibbes called her hus band's ottcntion to Mary, who was kneeling with olouped hands in prayer, at tho foot of tho bcd. lu moment, tho . little maid roso aud como lo them, saying calmly: "Mother, I must go back after baby." "Oh, my child," oricd tho mother, in ogony, "I cannot let you!" "But, mother, I must," pleaded Mary. "God will caro for mo." It was a fearful responsibility. Thc guns roared constantly through thc dark ness; tho houso might now bo in flames; it might bo filled with carnage and blood. Mrs. Gibbon turned to her husband. His face was buried tu his hands. Plainly she must dookie it herself. With streaming eyes sho looked ot Mary. "Como herc, my ohild," eho called through her sobs. Mary fell upon her mother's neck. Ono long passionate em brace, in which all a mother's tove and dovotion were poured out, and tho clinging arms were opened without a word. Mary sprang up, kissed her father's forehead, and spod forth on ber dangerous mission of love. The rain had now ceased, but tho night was still dark and full of terrors, for through thc trees she saw the freqaentflaehesof the great guns. The woods wero filled with the booming echoes, so that oannon scorned to be on every hand. She flow on with all speed. Soon she heard the crashing trees ahead, and knew that in n moment she would bo face to faco with death. Sho did not faultcr. Now sho wao again in tho Berco whirlwind. All around her tho shot howled and shrieked. On every aide branches foll oroshlng to tho earth, oannon ball pluugod into tho ground close beside her, cast over hera heap of mud, end throw hor down. Sho sprang up and preved ou with redoubled vigor. Not even that ball could mado her turo back. She roached thc bouse. She ran to tho room where tho little ohild usually slept. Tho bcd was empty! Distracted, sho flew from chamber to chamber. Suddenly she romcmbcrcd that this night ho had been given to another nurse. Up into tho third story she hurried, and as she pushed open tho door tho littlo fellow was hitting up in bcd, cooed to her and put out hi? hands. With tcir8 raining down lier cheeki Mary wrappod Ibo babe wormly ?ind started down tho stairs. Out into tho darkness once more; onward with her precious burdon through cannon roar, through ?hot and shell! Thrco times sho passed through this iron storm. Tho balls still swept tho forest: thc terrific booming filled tho air. With thc child pressed tightly to her brave young boan, sho fled on. Sho noithor stumbled nor foll. Thc shot threw dirt in hor face, and showered tho twigs down upon hor head. Hut she was not struck. In snfety sho rcaohod tho hut, and fell exhausted aoross thc threshold. And tho littlo boy thus saved by a girl's brave devotion, afterwards became General Kenwick, fa m min in the war of 1812. [Ojiarles II.

Wc havo charged and convicted tho Republican party with arraying moo against race, creat ing disturbances .nd fomenting difficulties, with prostituting tho oleetivo franchise, tam? poring with the ballot box. and holding unfair and fraudulent elections; with having nccu mulatod an enormous debt, mismanaged thc finances, and injured tho credit of tho State; with lovying exorbitant taxes, and equandor* ing them whoa collected, thus wringing from thc toil and livelihood of tho honest poor man "f tho State a largo porcentum uf his hard earning? without giving in roturn any com?, pensntion thcrofor, and recklessly involving in debt ?i majority of thc counties of the Stato.
