His words are In the heart. le is on the battlefield aid in oar peaceful honie. Praisc His holy name. It wa4 in tl:e wilds of Widahion -on th'e day of the b.ttle, as the noonday sun catue through the thick, clustered leaves that two men met in deadly obtiflict near the reef which, rose like Rome primeval world, at least a thou sattd febt above the dark Wdtors of the W issahico0n. The manwith dark brown face, grey eyes flashing-with deadly light, and a muscular form, clad In a biie frok of the Revolution,' is a Continen tal, name Warren. Tile other with long black hair, drooping along his cadaverous face. is clad in the half military costume of a tory refugee. This is a murderer of Paoli, named Delancy. They met by accident, and bow they fought, not with Pword or rifle, but with long and deadly hunting knife, they struggled, twining and twititing on the green sward. I At last the Tory is ddwn-down on the turf-the upraised knife flashed death in his face. -'Quarter I I yield !" gasped the Tory, as the knife was pressed on his breat. "Spare nie, I yield 11" --My brother said the patriot, in a tone of deadly hate, '131 brother cried for quirter on the night of 'aoli ; even as lhe clung to your knees you struck that knife into his heart. I will give you the quarter of l'aoli.'' And his hand was raised for the blow, and his teeth were clenched with deadly hate ; he paused for a moment, ahd then piuioued the Toryle arms- and 'with rapid stride, dragged him to the verge of the rook, and held him quiveting dvei the aby#A. "Mercy 1" gasped the Tory. turning ashy pale by turns, at the awful yawn ing below. "Mercy I hive a wife and chilhd at. houme-spasre mei" The Continental, with mutscular strength gathered for the effuint, shook the murderer . onog more over the abyss, ani then hijsed his bitter sneei in his face. children.

Ho begs that one more trii may be made by the little girl, that of five years, with golden huir and laughing eyes. The widow consents. There is an awful piuse. With a smile in her eye, and without knowing What she was doing, the little girl opened the Bible as it lay upon her mother's knee. She turned her face away, and planed her finger upon a line. The awful silence grows deeper. The deep drawn breath of the brother and the broken gasp of the murderer, ailone disturbed the stillness. The widow and dark haired boy are breathless. The little girl, as she uaught a feeling of awe from those around her, stood breathless, her face turned aside, and her ttuy ingers res ting on the line of lire or death. At last, gathering courage tli, widow bcnt her eyes upon the page and read. It wias from the New Testnmentlt your enemies !

Now, look how wonderful are the ways of Heaven. That very night, as the widow sat by her fireside-sat there with a crushed heart and hot ?yclids, thinking of her husband, who low lay on the drenched soil of Paoli, theye was a tap at the door. She >pened it, and that husband, living, Lhouih covered with wounds, was in [ter arms. Ile had fallen at Paoli but not in loath. lie was alive and his wife panting onl his boson. That night there was prayer and Lhanksgizing in the wood embowed eattage on the Wissthicon.

A Piliti Siateincul of the Late Insurrerltiou try 31vemenl ilN Nrvwherry. Sulay attertioon a report raceled town that a larg i aruled bllot (mlI col ored nen were in the n eighboIlIrhl:ood of Belmont, swearing to burn and hi I Mr. James Chiappell. who had a dii culty some days befre with a negro who he was desirou( (if driving off the plantation of 31r. Moses And tor. on, at the, latter's request.. The d ifliult y, we learn, had been settled, however, at terwards. Nl r. P..y.,iag r, 11 sheo i !I1, proceeded to thespot. anil there learn ed that a party of sixt.y colorod men had gone to the house of Mr. Ander son, where Chappell was, and Mr. Win Satterwhite went ont and asked what was wanterl. IlIe was told they wanted Mr. Chappell, that they were going to hhiig him. Mr. Satterwhite said it could not be. They then threatened to kill him. The party in the house then cime out, live in oumber, armed, when the 'negroes went off and were joined by othere, altogether utiki ng a large force. The citizens, in the meantime, tOrn ad out, and both palt ties, as night. had come on, remaincd in poition about two miles apait till mornin-1 r. l'aysinger with tle company o citi. zenti. Next morninig, having busincss in town, Mr. Paysiiiger started back, taking Mr. Cliappell along under ar rest to carry out the law in his case Mr. Jack IIendersm in company. On the road, near Lonigshore's store, they were stopped by a comipany of armed negroes, frimed in line. Th is party threatened to kill the Sherifl, but finally eoisttcd to let him and and the two others pass. On being ordered to disperse, and, if not peacea bly, they should be forced, they re plied there were j.ot itien enough inl Newberry to disperse then. Returniig to the Fceene of action near Belimwt, in company with two young men, Mr. P. overtook a force of con-t-bulary and colored in-rn from town, going in the aenni diretion. These he directed to go and nmet. the hostile negroes, and tell tliei thit peace had to b' preserved ; that he would meet them, naId see what was to be d.)ne, or what wanted. lie want ed then to disperse, but if they want ed war, and would have it, they should be gratified. Arriving on the ground, he found a large force (per. haps600-or 800 in number) of white men, mounted and armed, who had gathered in his absence ; havimn" heard, besidIe, that Crews, with it force front Laurens, were on the way to reinforce the Belmont outlaws. Mr. P., then, with three or four lead. ing men of the nieighborhood andvane ed to the hostile party, and demanded to know what they, wanted. The answer was: ":Jwni6.'' 1They were told they should have it, but they tuu-t disperse, Mnd also give tip the sixty who bad threatened Mr. O.'s life, and to born his premises. After considerable denur, the demand was wisely agried to, but only twenty three of the offenders could be four-d ; these were given up and placed under arrest. The armed party of white mounted men, who had thus far been kept in the background, were now ordered up, and filed past in review, when tie negroes quietly dispersed, promising to go to their homes. Tfhe town party then started on their re turn home with the prisoners.. In the ime .time, a negro came into) town shot in thme arm-n, and report ed the wound inflicted by Mr. George Johnstone, who was with Mr. Paysin ger. A howl was at once raised, and a party of infuriated colored boys and meni started to take Mr. J1. These self-appoin ted judges, and would-be excouttoners, met the returninig Slher if's party arid were very violent in demonstration against Mr. J. ; in fact, fired one shot at him. The insulting language and threats were hard to boar, but they wet e borne patiently. It was ascertained, finally, that the party suspected was not the one ; and t~e companay of peace-makers reached town'safely. Ihere the scene baffles description. The town was in a up roar-that. is. the colored portion and pothming but'the quiet determina tion of' the white cit izenis, and their great forbearance, kept off a collision. Tihe prisoners wecrd ph:eed under guard, and finally gave bond for ap pearance at court, which is now -sit ting. At night, a force was put on guard, as a necessary prccaution against the tha'eats andl violence of the afternoonm. Nothing transpired during the night to disturb the quiet, arnd in the morning no sign of thedis tur bance could be seen. It may be mentioned that the mounted citizens instead of coining towardls town moved in the direction of Edgefield, as it was reponted that a large force Qf negroes were near the Saluda River, and about to cross to join issue with the Belmonters, buat the result of this we have not ascertained. This is a~ plain unvarnished aceouint' of the whole affair. 8o far as we can learn, the negroes were wholly in the wrong. Itf Mr. Chmappell commmritted an offopce againa't the law, in striking a man who grappled with him to the law reeourso should have been had. But this seema not'the advice of par ty radioal leafters ;the puirpose evi denmtly is to bring on a collision, and the colored people are foolish enough in be led into the trap. We don't prevmt.t it ; but jttien a vill sooI I cease to be a virtine ; anal if thse bhilided coloredl p ople are deote!rmiined to precipitate it, they will et it, WO fear, before loll.
