"You can have the papers, mother ; I came in arter dinner aud touud them lying 011 the table. I suppose John sent them iu by Dinah. I am ?0 tired of rainy weather. I think it. lias not ceased raiirng all day?I have been tdecptng, though, and it may not have rained then." Kate gave her mother tbe papora, nnd said, ''"Well, mama. I have a. ,"Cw letters to write this afternoon. Ekouso mo, I will bo with you again in a few bourn." Kato ltuymond was the only daughter of Gen. and Mrs. Raymond. She was a lovely girl of eighteen. Her brother petted nnd foiled his little sister j aud if it were possible, her father nnd mother spoiled her dreadfully. Possessing a warm, loving, heart. Kate took ?all the spoiling aud petting admirably well. No one ever met her, and went away, feeling Other than love for her. The years of girlhood had been spent in fearful, trying scenes. Her father commanded n division iu Lee's army; and for three year.-, Mrs. Raymond and Kate lived in Richmond. While there, all the horrid paraphernalia of \var was daily seen. To watch beside the Pick and wounded soldier was one of her greatest pleasures?a pleasure otdy thus far?she soothed the dying hours of the patriot hero, wrote hofno his last messages, comforted the sick, and cheered the convalescent by her bright smile and cheerful face. Only a pleas ure, because she was doing her duty as a brave 'Confederate girl. The soul of Kate Ltnymoud ?felt no fear ; brave and courageous, she would 'do and dare anything for her country; and soon her spirit to be tested. Disaster after disaster befell our cause. The routed army of the Tennessee had been almost annibiliated in front of Nashville, (leu. Lee's army had been driven back. Sherman had entered Savannah, and only waited long (enough to rest, before beginning his march through tho Carolinas). Tho doatht-hroos of the nation shook every heart to its core. Na ture seemed to weep over the misery soon to befall her children of the desolated South. For days an incessant rain had been falling, adding ten-fold to the gloom felt by every one. Ail seemed to look with Iv.vcrish anxiety to ward the approach of Sherman. 'Twas said said that the remnant of Hood's army had turned their faces southward, and were slowly returning to oiler resistance to the victory flushed troops of the enemy. The struggle was a last effort of our dying nation to drive back our oppressors. On the morning of February 3d, as Mrs. Raymond and Kate were sitting in gloomy si lence, the quick gallop was heard of a horse coming up the avenue. Kate Walked to the window, and in a moment uttering a scream of delight?"Oh, mama, it is Douglass''?Kate ran to meet the long-absent brother. Mrs. Raymond's heart beat far* with joy, a song of gratitude was raised for the delivery and re turn of her son. lie was on (Jen. C's staff and fought through the campaigns of the un fortunate army under Bragg, Johnson and Hood. It was true, that ihey ha'l turned South, and were going tu unite with llardeo's army from the coast of Georgia ami the Caro linas, tlieu to make one effort to crush Sher man. Douglas Raymond's command had marched across the country from Augusta to Rocky River, about seventeen miles from L-, the town that Sherman would take in his march, and the home of Mrs. Raymond. Capt. Ray mond had obtained a leave of absence for four days, and promised to return in thai time. His visit was one of unexpected joy ami pleasure. He did not hope to find his mother ami sister at home. So many persons had refugeed, he (eared they too had gone to some place of fancied security. 111.-heart beat with joy, as he kissed his mother and sister again and again. After he had been at home a few hours, ami all questions hud been asked and answered by both parties, he enquired who had gone oft', " ho were at home, and who intended to remain when Sherman came? Kate gave him satisfactory answers to ?11 Iii? questions, and said, "What do you think of mama's resolution in regard to staying here, Douglass ?" ''Well, sister, It has r.vvv been my wish to keep you away from such a sight.? I mean the Yankee army; but, since mother desires t<> stay at home, and you have decided to remain with her, I shall not raise one objection. There is the dinner bell; and now let us go, and coin fort the inner man." The day.?. deemed to glide by as rapidly as before they dragged heavily along. The news came, on the morning of the fourth of February, that the railroad was en* on the Augusta Branch, and that Sherman was ad vancing rapidly across the country to cut. the other brunclfat L?. Troops were being con centrated there, and every hour tbe scream of the puffing locomotive announced a fresh ar rival. Mis. Raymond's plantation was situated on a little, stream about a mile from town, and im mediately on the line of road. Kvery train that paised was greeted by a crowd of darkeys, who rushed to the side of the road, waviii" nigged caps and rimless hats, and displaying all manner of uncouth '^...litves. The fourth train, had passed, only a few moments, when a hoy Canlc in, pulling ami panting, saying the train had run off tbe track. Douglass hurried off to see if it were true ; and before leaching the scone of tho disaster be met two officers, with whom he was well t 'quaiutcd. "Why, hallo. Captain, do I sei- you ?" asked tbe eldest. "Yes, I am hero, Colonel, and have just started out to hear if you needed assistance. I heard your train had run off." "Yes, Captain, it has run off; but nothing serious has happened. We arc not far from L?, 1 judge?" said the Colonel "No; you can see the depot and commissary buildings front where you stand I think it is about a mile from lu re by rail Rut. Colonel. I am here at ! omo. Will you ami Colonel Willis walk up with me '" ' Thank you. Captain. 1 will go up. What say you, Willi.- ?" said Col. Austen, addressing the young man. ??L will avail myself of the invitation, if Captain Raymond will excuse my appearance. The three men went home without further de l?y. Kate was standing in the door, ami a.- she saw them coming, she called tu her mother, who was busy getting a box made up for lo r sun to carry away -Mother. Douglass is com ing back, ami two soldiers are with him. Do come and see them " Mro Raymond came as Kale requested, and met tilCIII at the door. When Douglass turned to introduce Colonel Austen he found it unnecessary. His mother mother ami the Colonel were tdd friends. lie presented his friend, Colonel Willis, to hi- -i. tor and mother Colonel Austen did not wait j to bo formally introduced to Kate, saying, "I suppose, Mrs. Raymond, this is your daugh ter," and grasping KaTe's hand, he shook it j warmly. Inn few mom cuts, they were chat ting pleasantly about the times. "And are you going away, Mrs. Raymond?" asked Col. Austen. "Oh no, 1 expect to remain at homo and take of our dwelling,?save it from lire if 1 can. '?Just what my wife said, when I urged her to come, to ?South Cnroliua with me. 'I will Btuy at homo ; and if 1 am burnt out, I will havo the satisfaction of seeing it done,' was the invariable answer made to my entreaty.*' Colonel Willis had walked into the house with Captain Raymond, while the two ladies and Colonel Austen were talking on tho piazza. '?Miss Raymond, you have met one of the most gallant men of Mississippi In the field he is one of tho coolest and most daring inen 1 j ever saw. In the last fight, wc would have lost an entire brigade, but for /tin dariiur iiitro pedity. His name rings with praises in'our I army." While he . as speaking, the young men cn I tcied. ( Kate looked up al Colonel Willis, and could scarcely realize that (hut sad, serious man could be so brave and daring. Colonel Willis' face had a grief-stricken, weary look. He was I not handsome, but the true nobility of soul was stamped upon his large open brow, and seen in his fearless grey eves. Tall Mid RilCly formed, with an easy, graceful manner, a cas ual observer Would pronounce him handsome, but ho was not?his voice was one that gave pleasure to listen to. He said but little during the afternoon. He seemed buried in hiti own sad thoughts. Mrs. Raymond had supper prepared early that evening and when the soldiers entered the room and sat ?Iowa, Col Austin said it was the first he hud sat down to Oat sUeh a ii'Ofil in six months. Mrs Raymond had both tea and genuine coffee, it was a rare luxury, then not often indulged in After tea, Kate was requested to favor the guests with musi'i. "Col. Willis has"a fine" voiee, M1s? HaVoujuA; no doubt he wiil accompany you in singing," suggested Cid. Austen. "I know very little about music. Miss llay UiOH'J. Jo camp the boys had a glee club, and I became a member of it?more to hear llieih sing than to sing with them." ' You can certainly hing all that Douglass nml myself do. 1 only sing a few songs?and those are Southern airs. Come brother, put j that pipo away?and sing with iw." ? Sing what, Katie ?" "Oh! any thing that I tdion* to play ? Captain with the Whiskers' will jusi suit pou, won't it Come, do stop smoking (>Menu that for mc, too, Miss Raymond!'" (jucriud the old Colonel, as he puffed oyt :i great volume of smoke. "Oh ! no sir?1 never disturb old people?1 let papa smoke as much as he please, so I'll uccord the t;!iue privilege to you, as you fire his old friend." ?'Thank* for the liberty- now give us the music." Kate sang very sweetly, and when her brother and Col. Willie joined her, they made ' . ACellont music. They sang many >ngs to get her, nnd ended by singing ii oouiic song?a medley of ti dozen songs. As the evening wore away, Col. Austen and his friend look leave of the Raymonds, promising to call again The soldiers had long before this reached camp in h?, and were sleeping soundly, when their officers came up to the camp [TO Pi: CONTINUED.] V A R I OU S.

With this, and such subscribers as the editors pick up in their summer visits and peregrina tions among the Now England saints, tho radi cal organ iu reconstructed South Carolina is maintained. Tbc ?Mitire working force, when the oflice was visited not long since,, consisted of one dirty white, mau und one black ??devil," [i. <. negro apprentice.) The dirty white man has since been appointed by (Jen.

What has become of the black '"devil" deponent knoweth not, nor need your loaders oare. The mulatto Randolph is tbe congenial as sociate of Lewis in the editorial ami sanctum ? hair professional. When the Radical Ne gro League Junta was arranging its machine ry for the control of the State, it was nseer \ dncd that this city was ovctstocked with candidates, and that a distribution would bo Mcc'owary.

And this belief eonld have been but strengthened whon, ohicfly in consequence of his zeal In behalf of the wax on tho port of his State und the Sonth, he was invested by a lato IjOgi&Lataore of his Ht*t* with the dignity of a position among hex honored judiciary.

Judge Moses has ever trimmed hin sails to catch the popular brcesc ?now upon one side, and now upon another ?now halting to watch tho tide, and now leaping forward abreast its foremost wave, when its direction was distinctly seen. This has been borne with quiet submission by '.he people of his District, since he has bevjh t-cgnr ded abroad as the exponent of their sentiments-, until, at length, they may no longer remain silent und preserve their solt-rcspoct?-their character for intelligence, honor and independ ent thought. '?We speak lor Sumter District--the mass of her intelligent citizens, who, notwithstanding such examples and such influences in their midst, are unmoved from the path of priuciple and truth, and will, nt all hazards, maintain their honor and their respectability. "The obovo brief exhibit of this honorable gentleman's public antecedents and performan ces, and of his present position, has been sub- , niitted solely with the view of removing an impression, which outside the limits of our District may prevail, that his Honor reflects the political convictions and integrity of our people.

It goes to support tho Southern negroes in idleness; to keep tho whiles under the bayonets oi n huge standing army; and to on rich the plunderers.
