WE SHALL KNOW. When the mists have rolled in splendor, From the valleys and the hills. And the sunshine, warm and tender, Falls in beauty on the rills, We may read love's shining letter In the rainbow of the spray ; We shall know each other better When the mists have cleared away. We shall know as we are known, Never more to walk alone, In the dawning of the morning, When the mists have cleared away. If we err in human blindness, And forget that we are dust; If we miss the law of kindness, When we struggle to be just, . Snowy wings of peace shall cover All the pain that clouds our day, When the weary watch is over, And the mist has cleared away, We shall know as we ore known, Never more to walk alone, In the dawning of the morning, When the mists Lave cleared away. When the silver mists have veiled us From the faces of our own, Oft we deem their love bath failed us, And we tread our path alone ; We should see them near and truly, We should trust them day by day, Neither love nor blame unduly, If the mists were cleared away. We shall know as we are known, Never more to walk alone, In the dawning of the morning, When the mists have cleared away. When the mists have risen above us, As our Father knows His own, Face to face with those who love us, We shall know as we are known. Low beyond the orient meadows Floats the golden fringe of day; Heart to heart we hide the shadows Till the mists have cleared away. We shall know as we are known, Never more to walk alone, When the day of light is dawning, And the mists have cleared away. A CLOSE SHOT. Where the Kentucky River cuts its way through the mountains, having upon either bank bold, rugged cliffs that lift their summits five huudred and a thous? and feet, as the case may be, above the stream there lived, in early times, a set? tler by the name of Rufus Branson, who with his wife and ouly child, a charming little girl of some eight or nine years, occupied a rude cabin at the base of a precipice a little back from the river. Although greatly exposed to danger? the Indians at that time being plentiful throughout the region?be managed to live quietly for several years. The Indians frequently visited the home of the rude hunter, and being al? ways welcome and provided with such food as might; be in the larder, they maintained a very friendly attitude. Especially were they fond of the child, Maggie, and more that one fierce warrior had been sitting on the grass in front of the cabin listening to the childish prat? tle of the little one or else engaged in making it some toy or plaything from twigs or bark. In this manner several years had been passed, and Rufus Branson came to feel as secure-as though he was within the wall's of a frontier fort. One evening Branson aid his wife were seated near the door-way when sud? denly a shadow fell across the threshold, and the next moment, a tall savage, whoso reeling and bloodshot eye, told that he was intoxicated, appeared, stag? gered to the log steps and threw himself upoa them. His first demands were for "firewater," which were, of course, refused on the plea that there was none in the house. The Indian became cross and ugly, swearing with terrible oaths that if the liquor was not produced, he would mur? der the household. Branson was a brave man, although he dreaded the necessity, yet he saw that he would be compelled to take prompt steps to prevent the sav? age from executing bis threats. Wait? ing until the warrior had made a demon? stration?which he soon did by attempt? ing to draw his tomahawk?Branson sprang upon him, knocked him down with a blow of his fist, and then disarmed and bound him where he lay. After a few minutes of futile efforts to free him? self, the savage rolled over and sunk into a drunken slumber. He did not awake until next morning, but before be did so, the settler had quietly removed bis bands and restored the weapons, which he laid by the sleep? er's side. The savage on waking rose slowly to his feet, felt his wrists, as though the thongs bad left a feeling there, took up his weapons, and, without speaking a word, left him, disappeared in the timber that stood near by. "What do you think of that?" asked the wife, turning to the husband with a scared look. "Pshaw! Don't trouble yourself about the drunken brute," answered the settler lightly, but as he turned away, and step? ped into the yard, he muttered: "Like it 1 Well not much. The fellow must be watched. I was in hopes he would not have remembered; but that lump, where my fist landed was enough, if nothing else, to recall the circumstances." The summer passed; they saw the drunken guest no more. He failed to make his appearance. But as the leaves began to fall, the settler one day, while returning from hunting on the bills, and passing through a dense piece of timber, caught sight of a figure lurking in the bushes, but which quickly disappeared when he advanced towards where it was. The figure was that of an Indian, warrior, and Rufe Branson would have sworn that it was the Indian whom he bad knocked down and bound the previous summer. The knowledge was not in any way comforting, hence he did not tell his wife of the discovery. It would have alarmed her without perhaps any good result He merely cold her he had dis? covered bear tracks near by, and she and the child must stay within or close to the house when he was absent. Several days afterward, Rufe Branson heard his dogs in the timber, down by the river, ana, knowing that they never opened without good cause, he caught up bis rifle and hastened to where they were barking. They had struck a fresh bear trail, and as he arrived in sight they fairly lifted it going on in a straight line down the river. The chase had led him several miles, and when at last he got bis shot, that finished Bruin's career, he found that it was three or four o'clock in the afternoon. Swinging his game to a saplin, out of reach of cat or wotf, he started for home to get the old gray mare and return and catch it that night. Taking a cut he approached the cabin from the Western side, where the timber grew heavy up to within a few rods of the building, and consequently he could notsee the clearing, or what might be transpiring there, until he bad passed through the wood. Thus it was that when within but a very short distance from his home, he heard a wild shriek; he could guess that something terrible must be taking place beyond the screen of bashes and leaves. Uttering a loud shout that his presence might sooner be made known. Branson sprang forward with the leaps of a wounded buck, a great fear at his heart, but he bad only too clearly recognized in that scream, the agonized voice of his wife. It took but a moment for him to near the intervening timber and under? growth, and as he dashed out into the clearing, holding bis rifle ready for in? stant use, be comprehended in one swift glance, all that had taken place and what was farther. Near the end of the cabin, facing the cliffs of which I have spoken stood the mother, her face as white as the dead, her arms outstretched, and her staring eyes fixed upon the precipitous height up which the form of an Indian warrior was straggling. "My child, my child !" was all the woman said, and then Rufus Branson saw that the bundle borne in the Indi? an's arms was the form of their only child, little Maggie. Firm of heart, and with nerves as steady as the rocks around, the father for a moment actually quailed and cow? ered under what his quick senses told him was the deadly peril of the little one. But he was quick to recover. The Indian was drawing away ; step by step be was increasing the distance, and as he occasionally glanced backward, I the parents saw in his hideously painted countenance, the fell purpose that actu? ated the abduction. "God and me!" Branson muttered as be raised his rifle, glanced through the sights, and touched the trigger. The Indian started violently at the shot. I He was hit, but not badly, aud with a yell of devlish triumph, be passed up? ward. "Two low by a couple of inches," said a low, calm voice, at the settler's el bo. Branson started as though he himself had been shot. Where has that man come from? Who is he? Neither had seen him ap? proach. But there was no time for explanation. The stranger, a man rather below than above the ordinary height, whose fine, athletic form was fully displayed by his closely-fitting buckskin garments step? ped forward a few paces and grimly p'anting his left foot in advance, threw up an unusually long rifle as though pre? paring to fire. "For God's sake, stranger be careful of my child!" cried Branson, while the agonized mother muttered au inaudible prayer. It's our only chance. "I know that Indian," was the quick reply, and the sharp click of the hammer as it was drawn back, told that the critical mo? ment bad come. By this time the Indian had nearly reached the summit of the steep. That he was wouuded now became evident, as upon a broad ledge of ruck he rested a moment. ? The opportunity was seized by the un? known. Altbogh the savage had taken the pre? caution to hold the child up in front of himself as a shield, covering nearly .the whole of bis brawny chest, but leaving his head uncovered, the stranger did not hesitate in making the shot. For one second, as it gained its position, the rifle waved, and instantly became as immov? able as though held by a vice. With clasped hands and straining eyes the parents watched the statue-like form upon whose skill so much depended. Suddenly a sharp report rang out, the white smoke drifted away, and as the vision became clear, they saw the savage loose his hold upon the child, reel wildly for an instant, and then 'pitch forward upon the rocks. It may be imagined that the father was not long in reaching the place where the child lay, and in a few moments more the little one was in its mother's arms. "Tell us who you are that we may know what name to mingle with our prayers, said the mother, as the stranger prepared to depart. "My name is Daniel Boone," he said? and was gone. Adam's Lonely Boyhood. It is rather difficult to couceive Adam as a boy, owing to the popular supersti? tion that has painted him coming into the world full grown, with whiskers and mustache complete, and a prevailing be? lief that there wasn't a boy in the world until Eve came and raised the Old Boy with Adam; yet we prefer to think of our ancient progenitor as having had something of a boyhood, and we suppose we have as good a right to theorize upon the subject as any one else. Adam was probably as mischievous, naturally, as boys generally are. In fact, Darwin says be was a "perfect little mon? key," which we believe, is a synonym for mischievous the world over. But be bad no companions in his gambols. If be staid out after dark and got to cutting up, it was all by himself. And what sport could he have ringing door-bells without a lot of other boys to scam per away with? And consider the melancholy fun of fastening cords across the walks at night with nobody to trip over them. We can imagine young Adam, with all the instincts of a boy two inches thick in his nature, looking about for some way to divert himself as other boys do, and whispering to himself "Can't have any fun !" Of course he couldn't by any possibil? ity have any fun. No fun running away from school, or stealing off to go in swim? ming, because there was no one to lick him when he got home. No fun sneak? ing up into the haymow to indulge in a surreptitousgame of euchre?always bad to "play it alone." He couldn't play "tag," because he might yell "I've got the tag" all day, and there would be no one to come aud take it away from him. "Hi-spi" had no charm, for a boy soon gets tired of biding when he has to go to work and find himself. And where is there a boy who likes to work and "find himself." The more we think of Adam's lonely boyhood the more we are inclined to pity him. He never knew what a circus meant, at least not till Eve came and in? troduced him to one. But we havj nothing to do with that now, as we are only treating of Adam's boyhood. True, there was a big menagerie all round him, but the animals were tame affairs, lambs and lions lying down together in the most spiritless concord, and the hippo? potamuses and canary birds playing with each other like kittens. Little Adam never sat way up on the highest seat and gazed awe-stricken while a man in span? gled tights sprang, whip in hand, into a cage of savage beasts that rolled their eyes, gnashed their teeth, and roared until the canvass overhead flapped for very fear. No, indeed. He never saw a thin-legged female in short skirts ride a loping horse around a ring, and jump through a hoop, while a man with his face painted white and bis mouth a red exaggeration tells that convulsive story about stuffing hay into his shoes to fill them out, and bis calves going down to eat the hay. Young Adam never saw "the old clown," though he came very soou after Adam's day, and the jokes he commenced with he has been getting off ever since. And how about base ball ? Do you suppose that Adam knew anything about that exhilarating diversion that is now doing so much toward developing the in? tellects of our .American youth ? There is no likelihood of it, not while he was a boy. His son Cain, however, seems to have been the first who got up a "club," but it was the death of his brother Abel. While there were so many things that the boy Adam missed, think not that his solitary life was without its compensa? tion. There was no other boy to steal his marbles, or hide his top, or jeer at him because he had to wear his brother's cast-off clothes, or holler across the street that he had "a letter in the post office," or fix a bent pin for him to sit down on, or make faces at his sister, or spell him down, or steal his dinner, or tell on him when he had been in mis? chief, or beat him out of his sweetheart. Adam escaped these and a thousand other annoyances that boys subject each other to. He had not any brothers and sisters to tease and worry him, and with whom he was compelled to divide his playthings and nice things to eat that might come that way. He could leave a piece of sweetcake lying around any? where, knowing that none of the rest of the children would touch it; and at night, on retiring, he could stick his "gum" on to the headboard, confident that it would rest undisturbed until mornirg. Whatever trouble and annoyances his matrimonial life may have brought him, vre find a kind of satisfaction in reflect? ing that Adam's boyhood was exception? ally free from care, and on that account we are bound to conclude that his life was not an entire failure.?Fat Contrib? utor. Important Supreme Court Decisions. Washington, November 4. The Supreme Court to-day decided the case of Washington Ford, plaintiff in error, t'*. James Surget, error to the Su? preme Court of Mississippi?the question being whether the owner of cotton burn? ed by James Surget, under order of the Southern military authorities, can re? cover from said defendants the value of the cotton so destroyed. The court holds that the destruction of cotton under the orders of the insurrectionary military au? thorities, in order to prevent it falling into Federal possession, was an act of war, for which the person executing such military orders was relieved from civil responsibility. The case of Amos D. Williams, appel? lant, vs. Johnson Hagood, substituted for Thomas C. Dunn, Comptroller General of South Carolina, William Gurney, Treasurer of Charleston County, et al. Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of South Carolina. This is a bill in equity, in which the relief sought is "an injunction commanding the Comptroller to cease from refusing to levy a tax for retiring certain certificates of the State indebted? ness, and commanding the County Treas? urer to cease from refusing to receive the same for taxes and dues to the State, ex? cept to pay interest on the public debt." The court holds the question merely as an abstract, and the bill shows no equity in the complainant. The case is dis? missed, but without prejudice to the com? plainant's right to bring and prosecute another suit when he shall be in condi? tion to exhibit any equity in himself. James P. Southern vs. John Fisher? In error to the Circuit Court of South Carolina. Docketed and dismissed with costs._ ? The Georgia Legislature will meet next Wednesday.

In order to guard against resnlts utterly subversive of health, it is absolutely essen? tial that the grand thoroughfare or avenue of the system, the bowels, should be re? opened as speedily as possible when they become obstructed. If they are not, the bile is misdirected into the blood; the liver becomes torpid; viscid bilious matter gets into the stomach, and produces indigestion ; headaches ensue, and other symptoms are produced, which a prolongation of the ex? citing cause only tends to aggravate. The aperient properties of Hostetter's Stomach litters constitute a most useful agent in overcoming constriction of the bowels, and promoting a regular habit of body. It is infinitely superior to the drastic cathartics frequently used for the purpose, since it docs not, like them, act violently, but pro? duces a natural, painless cfTect, which does not impair the tone of the evacuatory or? gans, which it invigorates instead of weak? ening. The stomach and liver, also, indeed the entire system, is strengthened and reg? ulated by it. SPECIAL INVITATION.

McLANE'S celebrated LIVER PILLS, for the cure of Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint, DYsrersiA AND SICK HEADACIIS. Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. PAIN i:i ihc rijht side, under the edge of the ribs, increases on pres? sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the |>r::y::i is rarely able to lie on the left skIc ; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is af.ccted with loss of appe? tite and sickness; the bowels in gen? eral are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sensation in the back part. There is generally a considerable loss of mem? ory, accompanied with a painful sen? sation of having left undone some? thing which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet arc cold or burning, and he complains of a prickly sensa? tion of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exer? cise would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them ex? isted, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been extensively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. Dr. C. McLane's Liver Pills, in cases of Ague and Fever, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them a fair trial. For all bilious derangements, and as a simple purgative, they are unequaled. BEWARE OF IMITATIONS. The genuine are never sugar coated. Every box has a red wax seal on the lid, with the impression Dr. McLane's Liver Pills. The genuine McLanl's Liver Pills bear the signatures of C. McLane and Fi.emi.no Bros, on the wrappers. Insist upon having the genuine Dr. C McLane's Liver Pills, prepared by Flem? ing Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the market being full of imitations of the name McLane, spelled differently but same pronunciation.
