This eve the sun in glory sank, In royalty ie bowed; But, left behind a gorgeous hank Of gold and crimson clouds. High in the east the moon arose, In regal beauty crowned, To grace the eone of evening's close, 'Mid zephers sweetest sound. But in this cloud of beauty raro Upon its airy throne, A g-lden star of jewt-la glare, Sat regnant all alone, No other star its graniduer shared, It reigned a sister giucon, Unto tie moon tha'. proudly peered, With smiling graceful nein. I watched It glow in splendor bright And wield its magic wand, Me thought those atreams of brilliant bright, Told of an Angels hand. That kindled every golden beam, With Lleaven's magic touch, The heart, will fondly meet the gleam, That gently falls from euch. But darker ahadows gathered round The light, fauttas:io cloud, With serpents coil thoy softly wound, Within its gorgeous shroad. The orlhnson tinis began to fade, The gold was melting too; What had been beauly. then was shade, Upon the boundless blue. Darker grew the midnight. cloud, It. gloomy frowned afar ; Still upward, ever grand and proud, Arose the evening atar. I watched it on its darkened throne, Me thought that was the way, That [lope in life forever shone, Through bright or clouded day. The breeze arose beyond- the'vale, And fanned the courts of lleaven, And by the rising of the gale, The midnight cloud was riven. Then brighter shone the golden star, That ceased to reign alone, For other stars oano from afar, And round their Princess shone. Homely Iilty. BY LOTTIE BROWN. "You may talk as much as you please about freckles, Belle; it don't plague me a bit. I'm sure I have not thought of catohing of Mr. Irving, and if you have, why I hope you will succeed." Hilty Glaymer went on sifting the flour for her tea cakes, and sang meri ly, and Belle turned the page of the new magazine and glanced contemp tuously at the busy little figuo in the pantry. "There's no sense in quarreling, Hilty," said Mrs. Glaymer. "Of course, we all regret very much that you are not as pretty as Belle, or pretty at all, but surely it will be far worse if you persist in being 8o wick ed and envigus " Enviousi. Hilty gave the pitcher of eam which she hold in her hand an energetie tip, and its foamy contenta went with a splash into the broad-pan, and sent the light flour in a cloud. *'And as far Belle trying to catch Mr. Trving, I'm sure I think she will find it no great trial, unless he is blind. A man who has traveled, as we know be has, and yet has said that his heart was so truley American that it could not receive a forelgtu love, ill surely admire your beauti ful sitr. . That purplo grenadine, Bulle, is the most becoming thing you eyer -wore. Bless me, there's Bob, not, with Irving. Do run up stair-s, for it will look as though you were watohing for him if you remain here. Come down very carelessly, denr.". -"HJeigh-ho !" Ililty shook the flour from her white arms, and stood back. "'It is a jpity 'm iso ugly. Dear me, I shall be glad when Belle is taarried, for upon my word, I believe that her beauty makes mte look uglier. Heow I I'm not so v'ery freckled. I[don't, be. lieve anybody could see them a half inch away." No,sheo had but a few freckles, and those only stretched across the sandy nose, and she was by no mneans ugly. There was a wonderful lot of bronze hair wound in a smooth, shining co(il around her, and hber skin, but for the few freckles, was transparently fair. She bad cheeks like the heart of a pomegranate,' and bright sparkling eyes, both of which she found.in the early moroing, among the dewy grass and the fresh, pure air, when Belle wras dreaqpDng of her l)rownstoDO front and d,ives in her qwra cartlage; i d 4.last of-all, s had, a proud, perfect form~, and hands that even13 Be l ad asred... .. - ) .~- "4Midt whe6 a ei y$'th. called Boby het brother, from the kitobe*.?

Ir ving."1 If Hilty, could have seon herself just then, with the blood stealing in a ieb flood over her face, and her head turned shyly towards the door, she would hAve been well pleased with the sight. "I couldn't find ma or Belle, so I brought 0 uy here, Hilty. You needn't look hurt, fur he dou't mind." "Yes, I do ! I like it. Miss Hilty, are those cakes for tea " "Yes, sir," she laughed. "1 shall eat nothing els.' The voice of Mrs. Glaymer took them away, and they entered the parlor to meet the lovely and languid Belle, to whom this college friend of her brother's was the rook on which she founded her matrimonial hopes. "Well, he is not proud, and that is a great comfort, I am sure," said Hilty, as she went out with the pan to the oven. "D.!ar me I wouldn't it be charming to have the table out under the trees ? Nuggetad Belle, ai.d she pa8scd the supper room in her walk with M.. Irving along the piazza. "Yes ; but I'd wait, Belle, until the caterpillers go out of style, for they don't look nice in the butter, and another thing John has gone to the dentist's, and we should have no one to keep the flies away," said Hilty, from the inside. "I quite agree with her, Miss Glay mer. I do not admire romance as I do comfort." Hilty laughed, perhaps with a little triumph in her voice and glanced out at her stately sister. "Pray don't mind Hilty, Mr. Irv ing," said Belle, by way of self-conso. lation ; "she is shocking sometimes." "I assure you she does not shook me,'" he said. The summer days flew swiftly, and making much of her time, Belle thumped the Piano and read poetry ; went on siiling and botanizing with their guest, and kept Hilty forever at the ironing board with her collars and ruffled dreses. Guy Irving found time to look into the kitchen once and a while, and a half-hour was spent on the stoop of the back door, shelling peas or sorting beriies for the busy little kitchen girl who, at such times, was always at her post in the pantry, where he could plainly see her by turning his hand some head. "le will make Belle a splendid husband," she would say, as she watched the white hands so much whiter than hor own, busy with his good-naturedly given work. "It will be nice to call him brother. My, but I will kiss him, as true as I live, the very moment they are married I" "Hlilty," said he, one moi ning when they chanced to be quite alone-Miss Belle being in her chamber with her hair in curl papers, and Rob out in the hay-field-"why don't your sister help you, once and a while ? Don't' she know how " "Well-no I Belle is very sensi tive, and ma never taught bec. She has been away to Echool so much that she could not learn, as I have and then she has no taste for it," Hilty answered, with a A-sh. "I suppose you are not sensativo 1" "No, I suppose not. But you know I am not so learned as Belle. She taus French 'kautifully, and used to write splendid French songs-that is, I liked the tunes-of course, I could not understand the words." lie became very silent, and Hlilty hertily wished that she had said nothing, for he looked so grave that sme was quite sure she,had offended him. "Hlilty, dear, Belle is not able to come down to dinner, and she must have something light carried up to her," said her mother, looking in from the silting-room door, with a gesture, bidding to eome to her, "The air is so moist that Belle says her hair wo' curl before tea," se whispered, "anid she wants a good din ner, for she is nearly starved. You must slip up stairs while we are at, dinner, and don't let Irving see the dishes for all the world." Hilty went back to her labor, and wheni Mr. Irving had completed his work, ho brought the well-Ailed pan into the pantry. "Hlilty, I want you to take a lit tle walk with me after dinner," hep said. "Yes, when I've washed the dish The dinner passed off, with the carrying up of a loaded tray to the invalid, and finally, in a spotless, light calico,-and a straw hat on her broren oiwrla, 11illy went to walk with Guy Irving. Hie was very, silent for a long while, walkinog down the road, and tiurning away up a shady lane to a clump of wild) spread maple~s. Then he paused and -seated Hilty on the green turf, and sat down beside her. "Hlilty I" She gave a little jump, and an wered "Oh I Yes, sir, I" i.. V'Dp you, think I an old emnagm to g$ married 2" "Why, ye.," she said, with' , gay lan Ii dear little gi, and want her to be I my wife. What shall I do " "Why, ask her to be." "Then, little Hilty-dear, true, busy, little woman-will you take me 1"' "Me? Why, Mr. living I" "Yes, you. Now don't you dare to say no ! I'll be very good and obedient, little girl.'? "But I thought-" "Yes, I know you thought me in love with -Belle, but I am not. Bob knows it, and has given his consent." "Then L must." I "Of courso you must," and he slip. ped a shining ring on her brown hand and kissed the sweet face. Belle caie down with her hair in frizzes, and turned a sickly grean when her mother drew her out to tell her the newe ; but I believe she is consoling herself with the prospect of . visit next winter to her sister in the city, where she will stand a fair chance of catching some rich noodle. V A Battle In the Clouds-A French Balloon Attacked by a Prussian ?ronaut. The following extraordinary state- i Ient. appears in the Nouvelles do Jounr, f t Belginii p) per. It is containled in lie ( lie note t that joirul by one of its i correspimItnt at the seat, of war, which a note was conveyed hy a carrier pigeon r PAtis, October 1. ' Nadar returned yesterday to Paris. F His return was not, however, effected a w:thout micich trouble, ali loigh his bal. loon was directed by a good wind and fovorable currents since his departure from Tour.. But, lot me relate the particulars of his voyage in chrono logical order. He left Touis at six o'clock of the morning, and arrived in view of Paris at eleven o'clock, fluat. t ing about three thousand metres ab'ovo tne Fort of Chareniton. At the same time as the Intrepide., which was ilie name of M. Nadat's balloon, appeared in sight, a seuond ball'on iwas seen in the anie directio.. M. Nadar waved a a long streamer with the French nation. al colors. Immediately afterwards a t n1ational flag floated from the car of the . other balloon. Loud "hurrahs" and cries and 'O'est Durouf" from the garria bol of the fort greeted the appearance r of the two wronauts whose bolloone c gradually approached. Suddenly, and t when at a short distance from each 8 other a loud report was heard in the n air, followed by a series of explosions. These were at rirrt. supposed to be tri- t umphant signals of demonstratiot, unt il S M. Nadar was observed to fling himself n into the net'ting of his balloon and to P cling to its sides. During this time the C other mronaut Continued discharging l shots at M. Nadar and his balloon. r The Intrapide was descending rapidly t and it appeared evident to the spectators below that some incomprehensible event had taken place above. But mark b what the French flag of the neighbor. a ing balloon came to. It was withdrawn 0 and a black and yellow standard was a obsei ved to be float ing in its place. All a was explaiined. "-Treason." "It is a tj Prussian balloon." "He has fired on the Intrepide." were the cries that. burst similtaneously from the French people. Nadar was supposed to have been lost. His balloon was falling quickly, and had onice more nearly reached the earth, ' when M. Nadar was observed busily ~ engaged in casting ont ballast. There, a upon his balloon re'asends, and M. Na, b dar was seen agalin to clinab lip the net-. work and by a marvellous effort to stop ~ a hole in his balloon made by the shot, of his adversary. The Intripide then ' became the assailant, several shots hay.| ing been fired by M. Nader at the Prussian balloon, which suddlenly whirl. ~ ed about and fell to the ground with giddy velocity. As soon as it reached the earth a detachment of Uhlans, wh3 weie in the plain, and who had been rollowing the mrial combatants through. * out this exciting struggle, rushed forth Il and surrounding the halleo", received ,r their champion-Godt knows in what coindition. They then hiastened off at t full speed to the Prussian advance-post. t In meantime, M.

A supplement to the Laurensville Herald, dated Monday 24th. enables ua to give the following: The chibf actor fl' all the villaintes previous to the disturbance of the 20th, was Joe Crews. For weeks before, 1p91e families had never undressed for bed, so greit was the alarm caused by Crews' teachings and exhortations to burn and kill. The negroesi were told by him that they had the State gov. ernment, and must keep it or die; that it was necessary for their liberty that he should be elected ; he had pit arms in their hands; they niust use D them ; they had the toroh-and match D es were cheap. They must burn and destroy ; and that all over fifteen could vote, as lie had pasted the law I himself. The building occupied by Crews was an old one-- known as :Tin Pot. Ard here, flanked., by negro s stores, he had his office ; and hero, t al8o, he had an armory of State guns, 9 about 1,000. Besides this armory lie D had a number of guns it his own resi. i dence, which was regularly loopholed and fortified. Joe refused to allow - the Reform Party to be represented among the managers at the polls. Joe, f not satisfied with telling boys of fit s teen to vote, exhorted even the we f men to put on piantaloons, and vote. * On election day ahe blacks commne-o aod arming, and, but for the advice of Colonel Smith, of the garrison, who. advised to lay aside the arms, a bloody affair would have take place. about 1,000 negro. min,-it is supposed, were in town, 1,900 of them voted. OnI Thursday, one of the constabulary and a citizen had a fight, and the crowd a gathered round, when somne man's pistol acoidentally going off, imme ~diately a volley from "Tin Pot" was A'fred into the crowd, the oitiseins at once returned the flie, and rtuehod on Tin Pot, broke down the doors 'and rou'ted the brate constabulary. and.

Whates'er the result of the recent election, as to the general tieket, much good has been done. When some of our friends doubted the ;olioy of our placing iin the field oaudidutes for Governor and Lieuten aut-Governor, Ae argued that this course ought to be adopted-that it was essential in this way to give force and point to the opposition. Ve coutended further, that it was impor.

This has been done, and. well done. "Error wounded" writhes in pain--and strike it again and again, until it "dies among its worshippers." Look at the exposurea that have been made : Starting with the Executive, the damning charges made by lampton and Butler and Carpenter and others will cling to Gov. Scott like the shirt of Nessus. In general, the charges made, proved, established against the ring of plunderers and corruptionists, I will not soon be forgotten, and those men stand pilloried 'in shame before the country. Nor will the good seed sown broadcast over the State fail in good time to bring us albtarvast of good. Outside of the practical results the Reform effort is a snccehe, because it was an effort in behalf of truth and v i rt ue. Let us go on, resolved to carry on our opposition until we recover the power and the influence to which we are entitled by nature and nature ' God. It is the God-given right and province of the white man of the South. to give tone and direction to Southern civilizAtion. Denying to the colored men no right to which they are entitled before Heaven and man kind, let us nevertheless assert and win that supremacy to which wo shall show ourselves entitled by superior genius, vittue and enterprise.

TuE NEGRO RisING IN MARTTNIQUE. -The negroes of the Prench colony of Martinique, on learning of the war in France, and thinking possi'l - ' a e te opportune time had. ar-r. 'i a mu. mll to make a strike for ie.tj, u.(Lr took a rising on the 22d ultitmo, and commenced the establish ment of thoir freedom. on a foundation of fifty burning plantations and the murder of possibly as many people. This for a commencement, shows the foirce and -bloody spirit which animates these misguided people. Lod on by leaidera wno halve more than once be' fore been engaged in movemen ts calou. lated to disturb the peace of the island, the negroes haove again been incited by the same ill advisors to - desperate acts of murder and the destruction of property. On such a basis they are going to raise the public. With Hayti as a model, taking it for grant ed that they may be successful in their present attempt, the colored in habitants of Martinique will have all the occupation -they desireo in risings, revolutions, charges of 'President, ous inrg of ministers, tnakinag of generhas and all the usual dieturbancos which characterize peoples who bevo not the niost remnote or intelligent' idens of the true meaning of tpublicanismi, and who are wont to associate the freedona of crime with thii ideas of liberty.

MITri.:o.-The Journal of the Telo. graph thus describes the manner in which European news is sent over the cable : "'lere is a man sitting in a dark room at Ileart's Content. The ooenu cable terminates here. A fine wire attach ed thereto is made to surround the two small cores of soft iron. As tho electric wave, produced by a fow pieces of copper and zino at Valentia, Islses throigh tho wire, these coros boome magnetic enough to move the slightest, object. A looking-glass half an inch in diameter, is fixed on a bar of iron one-tenth of an inch squaro and half an inch long, On this tiny glass a lamp is made to glare so tha6 its light is reflected on a tablet on the wall. Tho language of the cable is denoted by shifting this reflected light from side to side. Letter by lotter is thus expressed in this flitting idiom, in utter silence, on the wall. There is no record made by the machine ex ceptas ihe patient watcher calls out to a comrade the translated flashes as as they come, and which he records. It seems like a miracle of patience. There is something of awo creeps over us as we see the evidence of a human touch three thousand miles away swaying that tide of light." GovERNMENT IN TilE AIR.--Tho incidents of war, ancient and modern have been very curious, sometimes very extravagant, always very tragi cal. But in all the history of war, the remotest times, nothing so extraor. dinary has ooourred as the present state of affairs in Paris, where the comnuniation with the outside world and even with the reat of government at Tours, is confined Sto the aerial ohances of a balloon flight. The gov erument of France to-day cannot be strictly located either in Paris or in Tours. It is rather up in the air.
