WE CANNOT B- ALONE.
I thought to bo a'one,
So loft the busy wurM, nil its lifo.
Its joys, its griefs, its cares, its bitter strife,
And to the woods I strayed one sultry day,
Where solitude and silence would have sway.
For oh, I longed for botli ! No friends craved I,
Nor useless words to speak of sympathy ;
So, in the grand old woods I sought relief,
Where utter loneliness nod silence, brief,
One short hour could be known.
I thought to be alone,
Hut found the woods nlive. Each dell and glen
As full of bustle as the haunts of men;
For there small insects chirped in perfect glee.
And leaves kept rustling in each tall old tree ;
With snaps the grasshoppers rubbed loud their
wings,
And wild birds sang, and bees were noisy things,
"Those woods have too touch sound and life," 1
cried,
"To soothe my heart," so left its shadows wide
For other realms unknown.
I tbought to be alone,
(.So turned my steps towunl the great, wile sea.
Ami snt upon the beach, lor majesty
Ami solemn stillness brooded o'er the spot
Full well 1 knew, Hut ah ! I quite forgot
That ebhing ti'les flow never silently,
And ilancing waves will murmur of the sea ;
These often roll, ami swell, ami crush, am! roar,
As imully leans the surf against the shore,
Where silence is unknown.
Alone? N'o more I moan.
Ifut turn, with tearful eyes ami drooping head,
Resolved earth's busy paths I now would tread
Without a murmur. Jest, and laugh, and song,
No more should fret! I would myself prolong
The tumult?work, and sing and pray,
And strive, by doing go id, to drive away
The morbid glooin that solitude would crave.
Which Rod forbids?for feel wc gay or grave,
We cannot be alone !

A Death in Court.?About <5 o'clock
on Thursday evening, while the Superior
Court was in session at Kuoxvillc, the county
scat of Craw Ibid County, Judge lhtrnard
Hill, the presiding judge, died upon the
Iteucli in a sudden and unexpected maimer.
The facts appi ar to be as follows: A criminal
trial, in which two negroes wore charged
with larceny, had Ju-1 been concluded, and
the jury returned a verdict of ''guilty."?
They neglected to state the value of the
goods stolen, and .Judge Hill remarked to
them that they had best retire and supply
this portion of the verdict. They returned
to the room and a lull in the proceedings
occurred. A few moments after, one of the
attorneys looked up and discovered that
.Judge Hill's head was thrown back upon
his chair, a deathly pallor overspreading his
countenance. Friends rushed to him, but
with au easy gasp his spirit passed away,
and lie sat dead upon the bench in the midst
of the discharge of his high official duty
The scene was one to awe and impress every
heart, and there was a deep feeling of sorrow
in every breast. The cause of death
was probably heart disease, and not apoplexy.

to th i former conclusion, and eye-witnesses
of the awful affair agree in this belief ?

addressing the Secretary. The S. &l'. Railroad
passes through the grounds, thereby facilitating
the loading and unloading of machinery without
any expense of drayagc.
To lhe oilizens of .Spartanburg, York, Chester,
{.aureus and Newberry, we extend a special invitation
to our Fair?both as visitors and exhibitors.
As they are our neighbors, we make no
distinction between tiieirs and the products of
our own County.
The excuse that heretofore many of our citizens
have made to 'Making a hand" it? anything
looking to ? general public improvement, has
been the situation of the country ; the had government
; burdensome taxes placed upon us by
thieving ouiciais ; fiuin i Know now long rimy
could stay iu such a country ; hadn't the >|?irit
i i go into anything of I lie kind: didn't believe
it would j>;iy no how ; where is the money in it?
Well, we have now, a (iovernor of our own
l choice : local otlieiuls from our own people, and
an hottest government, almost as if hy magic ;
now where is your fust class croaker? Whilst
most of our citizens arc confining themselves at
homo, making every effort to recuperate our
worn lands, add seme little attractions to their
homes and do something towards reconstructing
our social interest, would it he out of time or
place to aid in building up this Association, for
our mutual benefit ? Other clas&e* of^nen have
their cotton exchanges, hoards of trade, trades
unions; all for their own exclusive use and benefit
; and are you so sute that you are (lie class
designated as hewers of wood and drawers of
water, that you fear to join in with an Association
which will advance you in the three depart
incuts of life ? intellectual, social and business?
It it against your interest to meet here once a
year, compare notes and rub intellects together?
Out of so tunny, some new and useful idea may
spring.
Vou have now, no school from which to learn
but that of experience. Is there anything unpleasant
iu meeting your old neighbors or friends
who, perhaps, otherwise you might not meet for
years? Itccaiisc you live in the country is that
I titiV t'C.lsfin ivlt v Vnii <*liiiii1.l r?i?? nil enmn fAtraf Iwir
for 11 lew days, or is it only for towns and cities
to lnfve "societies"? So let us coine, one and
all, and have an old "hefore-the-war-like" handshaking
and social meeting of all our people.-?
Let us see if there is not some good in the "old
land yet." I.et ns see if we cannot yet show
1'Ml bushels of corn, '2 bales of Potton, HO bushels
of whvat, and ? "? bushels of oats to the acre,
with a plenty of peas* potatoes, turnips, pinders,
clover and grasses; an exhibition of stock not to
lie excelled in the State, and last, but by no
means least, a Ladies' Department, such as
I'nion ladies can niaku such an exhibition.
I n conclusion, allow us to say it is by no means
lost time to attend tlie County l-'air. In fact,
up think y.ui ought to make it a special business,
and wlten there, remember it will pay to study
ami carefully examine all machines and implements,
products an 1 btock. so ns not to be iin
povi-,| up.in l.\ those who may have these tilings
for - ile at a distance.

a business matter. Every farmer, his wife and
children, should linve something to exhibit there,
and should compare and judge for themselves, i
all other exhibits. It no prize is gained, there
should be no dissapointmeut, vexation, jeal- j
ousy, or heartburnings ; but a determination to i
improve upon the effort next yeai, and, if possible,
then to succeed; each and every one doing
what he can to bring about and hasten that "procrastinating
siren," "the good time coining.'' ,
