Thc Rulm.af Colnmbla to tho?? o?
Portland. **
BY FANKY DOWJirSiO.
How feel you, toppled from your height,
And*lacli aud ruined with tho blight
Which fire leaves, bis signal stamp,
Where'er bis crimson cohorts tramp?
How fort von, when tho warning kneJl
Upon vo?r frighted city fell.
And woman's shrieks and children SWIM
Wcuit pealing up the ensanguined skie.i
How/sit you, when tho fiery stream
Leapt madly roaring, while its gloam
Lit up pale faces, sick with care,
Or rigid in thoirwikl despair?
Ours is the right to question so;
For all that fire can do. we know
By fierce experience-fire whose birth
Sprang up from demons loosed ou oarthl
Wo looked upon a fearful sight,
When, on that bitter winter s night,
\ brutal general gave command:
"Bara do wu Columbia," and, sword ju
band,
His ruffian soldiers forward sprang,
And soon the defenceless city rang
With cries and curses, prayors and groans.
And crashing roofs and falling stones,
And soldiers* yells of wild desire,
Commingled in a sea of fire,
Whioh hissed and blazed, and raged and
roared,
As fast itamolten torrent poured.
On church and convent, store and street,
lu billows of devouring heat.
Far from the doom, they could not stay,
Thc afflicted angels lied away,
While powers of darkness burst their
chain,
And sin ?nd satan reigned again.
Meanwhile they pilfered-warriors bold -
All that was precious, gems and gold.
And priceless treasures, books as rare
Wrenched jewels ont of woman's ear
Snatched diamond rings from fingers fight;
Took silken robes and ribbons bright;
Nay, stole-as many a mother knows -
Even new-born babies' tiny clothes!
Brave knights! how high their pride must
mount,
As they those doughty deeds recount.
To listening school-marms, and display
Tho trophies which they boro away.
And fiud their soup-those valiant loons
Is better sipped from stolen spoons!
Some sights we saw, to thrill one through,
And provo what woman's pride can do.
Composed, amid such frigntful scenes,
Our women stood, so many queous,
And though tho cheeks were wan and pale,
Their Hashing eyes made cowards quail,
And showed them, in their strength sub?
lime, '
The daughters of our Southern clime:
We saw the proudest of our land,
Beside their blazing mansions stand,
And, with a scorn no words can show,
Hurl back defiance to the foe.
"Go on, vile wretches; steal and slay;
Our brave Confedeiates aro away;
So jrou, who fly their sabre's flash,
Liko howling hounds before the lash,
Mav war on womea at your will
And wreak your fiendish mabco-still
The day of reckoning dawns on high;
Wade Hampton and his chivalry
Will pay our debt!" Thoypaid it woll,
As many a Northern home can tell!
We heard the white-veiled novice shriek
Within her convent cell, then seek
Tho Yirgm's aid with stifled breath,
To 'eoape from insult worse than death!
We saw old mon, who frantic stood,
Their snowy locks besmeared with blood,
Striving to form a Bholter frail
For some death-stricken infant pale,
Beat down and trampled by tho throng,
With mocking curso and obscene song!
And one wo saw, who late had been
As puro as d'?w-drops, when their sheen
Bedecks tho rose-bud's pearly brow
With crystaline perfection, now
A gibbering idiot, mouthed and smiled
And chattered liko a little child!
Her brave boy brother near her lay,
Gasping his murdered life away.
We saw tho priest struck to th? giouud
Beside the altar, while around
The ribald soldiery pressing up.
Filled high tho Eucharistic CUD
With sacramental wine, then drained
From hands with hnman blood all stained.
Would that tho Saviour's plea might win
Forgiveness of such heinous sin;
And for tho accursed wretches plead
Their igr.oranco of each impious deed!
In vaiu the wish-in vain tho plea
Though drankon with demoniac glee,
They kuew full well the work they wrought.
And knowledgafresh enjoyment brought!
Such sights we saw that awful night,
And yet froc our exalted height
Of desolation >ve can throw
A pity for you; puny woe
Contemptuous pity!" AU ihe fame
That Portland knows, from money came,
And all she lost by wreck or pain "
Mere money can buy back again!
Our loss-Oh! God, what earthly ore
Our priceless treasures can restore!
Ruins of Portland, keen the smart.
Yet our's is far tho better part!
No grr.nd, historic past is yours
No future glowing with tho store?
Of glorious memories-in decay
You and your city pass away!
While, as the coming ages gleam,
COLUMBIA'S woes shall bo tho theme
Of song and story; bards shall tell
How the fair Southern City fell;
Fell but to riso and blaze sublime,
A star upon the brow of Time!
July l i, 18GG.
THE HIGHWAYMAN*
Toby Simpson, a ?ateru to Quakers, j
inhabited a neat little house in Lon
don, beautified by tho presence of i
his daughter Mary. She was scarcely
seventeen, a beautiful blonde, with
blue eyes, and possessing as much
wisdom as beauty, was .sought after
by all the young men among her
father's acquaintance. Those of the
neighborhood tried, in vain, to win a
smile. Mary was not a coquette, and
HO far from turning to account the
effect produced by her charms, she
felt so much annoyed by it, that she
could hardly treat with civility her
many admirers, one only excepted
Edward Weresford-a young artist
who was intimate with the family.
A simple occurrence was the cause
of this intimacy. Prematuro death
had taken away the wife of tho
Quaker, still in her youth and
beauty, and he, wishing to perpetuate
the memory of ono so dear to him
had called a painter to her death-bed'
It was there that Edward first met the
afflicted daughter-there, between
the tears of ono, and the sacred
employment of the other, grew up a
sprious attachment. The year passed
since that event had only served to
strengthen the bond formed under
such circumstances, and the youug
man had already ventured to declare
his hopes and desires.
Toby had no xeasoir *<or opposing
the inclinations bl the yoong people.'
Without being rich, Edward earned,
by means of MB brush and palette,
enough to honorably maintain a
fiunily. - His lather, Mr. Werwsford,
an oki city merchant, had retired with
an immense fortune, a rare example
of repeated success in speculations,
so vapid, evexl.-that Te ry few persons
had been able to follow their progress.
Mr. Wsresford, being of. a quick, s ter a
disposition, lived alone iu the West
end of London, without troubling
himself about his son, and leaving
him to shift for himself. _ He waa
one of those obliging egotists, whq
troubled no one, in order not t?
be themselves troubled-one of _ tb?
most perfectly complaisant, provided
nothing is asked ot them. Edward,
then, had nothing to hinder hie
courtship of the fair Quakeress, wei!
knowing that her father would nd
oppose her marriage. The aitnatiot
of the lovers was most prosperoui
and honest Toby waited for nothing
to fix the wediling day, save the bael
rents due from his farms, intending
to* set apart that income to defray th?
expenses of the occasion. With thi
view, he left for his country seat, i
few miles from "London, in order t<
arrange his affairs. He was abaen
from home but a singlo day, and re
turning at night on horseback, h
perceived, a little in advance, a horse
man who blocked up the road. H
stopped for a moment, uneertai:
whether to proceed or turn bad
While in this p redicament, th
stranger advanced toward him. 3
waa too late to think of escaping, an
putting the best possible face upo
the affair, he started his horse agait
As he approached the troublesoui
stranger, he perceived -that he we
masked, au unpleasant augury <
what was soon confirmed. The ul
known drew a pistol, and pointed
to the traveler, demanded his purs?
The Quaker was not a ftowara, bi
calm in character, .inoffensive i
religion, and uuable, being unarmec
to resist an armed man, with tb
greatest coolness he draw from b
pocket his purse, containing tweb;
guineas. The highwayman took i
counted out tho mordy, and let tl
Quaker pass, who, behoving bimse
cleared, quiekend his pace to a tro
But the highwayman, seeing ho
little resistance had been offered, an
hoping for more booty, soon rejoii
ed honest Toby, and again blocke
up the way, aud pointing his pisto
cried ont, "Your watch!"
Tho Quaker, although surprise?
did not show it in the least, ar
coolly taking out his watch andnotir
the time, placed the jewel in the har
of the thief, saying:
"Now, I pray you, let mego hom
for my daughter will feel uneasy ;
my absence."
"One moment," replied the mask?
cavalier, growing moro hardened I
his coutinued docility; "swear th
you have no other sum."
"I never swear," replied tl
Quaker.
"Well, affirm then, that you ha'
about you no more money, and up<
tho word of a highwayman, who w
not resort to violence toward a mi
who yields with so much grace, Iw
no further molest you."
Toby reflected a moment, and sho?
his head. "Whoever thou art," sa
he, gravely, "you have noticed that
am a Quaker, who would not conce
the truth, although at the risk of n
life. In my saddlo-bags I have tl
anna of two hundred pounds sterling
"Two hundred pounds sterling
cried the highwayman, whose ey
glistened through the m asl-.
"If you are good, if you a
human," replied the Quaker, you w
not take thia money; my daughter
nbont beiug married, and this sum
necessary for the occasion; it won
be a long .time before I could ?
together a similar sum; the dear chi
loves her intended, and it would
exceedingly cruel to deny their unie
You have a heart, perhaps you hn
loved; you would not, cannot, do
wicked an action."
"What has your daughter, 1:
lover, or their marriage to do with m
Fewer words and more promptne
?jive me the money !"
Toby, sighing, raised the sadd
bags, took out a heavy sack and hal
id it slowly to the masked man, th
attempted lo gallop off.
"Hold on, my Quaker friend," HI
.he other, seizing the bridle. "T
moment of your arrival you will ?
mounce me to tho magistrate; that
lsual, and I have nothing to say;I
I must bo beyond pursuit to-nig
My mare is feeble enough, and wha
nore, she is fatigued; your horse,
he contrary, anpeors vigorous,
ho weight of the sack did not <
:uniber him; dismount, and give
pour horse; you may take mine
rou wish."
It was too late to think of reslstii
ilthough the increasing demai
vere of a nature to heat the bile
he most patient mau. Good Tc
lismonnted, and with resignation
iepted tho sorry jade that was left
?change. Had r known this,
untented himself, with thinking
liould have ran away, when I ri
net the rascal, aud certainly he woi
lever have overtaken me with t
ourser.
Meanwhile thc masked man, thai
jg him ironically for his compl
mee, bnryina his rowels, disappe
a.
Before arriving iu . .London, I
hindered traveler had time, to rofl
pon his situation, aud upon the c
ppointment of the poor you
ilks, who loved each other so rmi?
and whose happiness would bo post?
poned. The sum taken from him
was. irrevocably lost; there was
neither means to find or recognize
tue audacious thief; nevertheless, as
though struck br a sudden ides, he
stopped snort.
"Yes," cried ho, "I may succeed
by this means. If this man resides
in London,'perhaps I shall toe able to
find him. "Heaven has, doubtless,
determined that lie should bo im?
prudent!"
A little consoled by some hopo,
Toby went home without appearing
the feast troubled, and without speak?
ing of his adventure. He did not go
to a magistrate, but embraced his
daughter, who doubted nothing, and
as usual retired and slept with plea?
sant dreams. Next morning he com?
menced his researches* Bringing
out the mare from the stable where
she had passed tho night, he placed
tho bridle upon hot neck, hoping
that the animal, guided by habit,
would naturally go to- her master's
house.
He let the unchecked beast go free
in the streets of London, and fol?
lowed her. But he over-rated her in?
stinct; for a long time she walked
about, making a thousand turns and
curves, without objeet or direction
sometimes stopping, then starting iu
a contrary .eourse. Toby despaired
the thief, thought he, never residec
in London: how silly I was not tc
notify a magistrate before it was toe
late, instead of depending upon tlii;
animal to find the vagabond.
He was interrupted in Iiis refloc
tions by the cries of the children whe
had been nearly trod upon by th?
marc-a moment since so quiet, nov
she started to run.
"Stop her! stop her!" cried even
one.
"Let her go," cried the Quaker
"In the mame of Heaven, do not sto]
her!"
And following, with auxiety, th?
course of the animal, he saw he
rapidly enter the half-open gateway
of a splendid residence at the Wes
End.
'Tis hero, thought the Quaker
thankfully raising his eyes to Heaven
Then, in passing before the house
he saw a servant iu the yard pattin;
the beast, and conducting her to th?
stable; he then asked of the firs
person he met the name of the pro
prietor oi the house.
"What! are you a stranger in th i
part of the town, that you do Ho
know tho residence of the rich mea'
chant, Weresford?"
Tho Quaker stood petrified.
"Weresford," repeated tho man
believing himself misunderstood
"yon. well know the mau who lia
made so great a fortune."
"Thanks, my friend, thanks," rc
plied Toby.
He was unable to recover himself
Weresford, Edward's father-a re
spected mau-he my thief!
He believed himself thc butt of ;
dream, and wished to return h une
Nevertheless, he called to min?
several instances of respectable mei
who had been connected with band
of malefactors. Then this immens
fortune, the source of which was s<
uncertain; then this mare, waicl
seemed to be going to her master
Toby was determined to solve th
mystery. He went boldly into th
yard and demanded speech with th
master, who, although it was nearl;
noon, was still in bed-another indi
cation of a night of fatigue. Th
Quaker insisted upon being intro
doced immediately, and soon four,
himself in Weresford's bed-chambei
Ho had just waked, and rubbing Li
eyes asked, a little out of humor:
"Who are you, sir, and what d
you want?"
The sound of his voice awakeue
Toby's recollection, and complete
bis conviction. Quietly taking
chair, he posted himself near th
bed, without removing his hat.
"You remain covered!'' cried til
surprised merchant.
"I am a Quaker," replied th
other, with much calmness, 'au
you know that such is our usage."
At the first words of the Quakei
Weresford sprung up and closely CJ
amined his visitor. Without doul
he recognized him, for he turne
pale.
"Well,"' asked he, stammering
"what is, if you please, the-the
subjeet which brings you hither?"
"I ask pardon for having shown s
much baste," replied Toby, "lu
among friends it is unusual to ttuu
upon ceremony, and I am oom.
without form, to ask for my vate
which you borrowed yesterday."
"The-watch!"
"I value it much--it was my po?
wife's, and I cannot do without i
My brother-in-law, the aldermai
never would pardon me for letting
jewel which calls to mind his sist<
to pass from my hand a dav."
The name of the alderman secme
to make some impression upon Were:
ford. Without waiting for a roplj
Toby continued:
"You will much oblige me hy r<
turning those twelve guineas which
lent you at the same time; neverthu
less, if you aro in want of them,
consent to lend to you on conditio
you give me a receipt."
The coolness of the Quaker s
nuch disconcerted the merchant thi
te dared nwt deny til o possession c
hestolen articles; but not wishing t
icknowledge it, he hesitated torepl]
md Toby added;
"I hare told you of the projocte
narriage of my daughter Mary,
md reserved a sum of ?200"ste:
ing for the bride's portion, bat
li ave met with aa accidcut ; lout even?
ing, on the London road, I was" com?
pletely robbed-so completely that I
am-come to pray yon to give your'
son a marriage"portion, which, had
it not beeil for that, I should .never
have asked of you. "
"My sonl" '
"Ehl yea; don't yon know that it is.
him that ia in love with Mary, and is
to marry her?"' - ? .
"Edward!" cried the merchant,
throwing himself at the foot of " the
beth
"Edward Weresford," calmly rc -
plied the Quaker, taking a pinch of
snuff, "let us sec; do something for
him. I should dislike to have him
kuow what passed last night, and if
you do not furnish the sum ? have
promised, it will be necessary I should
tell him how I lost it.n
Weresford ran to a secretary, took
out a box with a triple lock, opened
it, and placed in the hands of the
Quaker his watch, his purse, arid his j
sack of money.
"Good," said the Quaker, on re
coiviug them, "I see I was righC in
depending upon you."
"Is thia all you wish?" said the
merchant, in a brisk tone.
"No; I require something further
of your friendship."
"Speak."
"You must disinherit your Hon."
i "How?"
"You must disinherit him ; I do not
wisli it said tlutt I li aye speculated
j upon your fortune:" and finishing
these words, the Quaker left the
chamber. "No," murmured he, when
alone, "children arc not bouud by
tho faults of their parents. Mary
shall marry the son of this man, hut
touch his stolen mouey, never."
When iu the yard. "Ho, my
friend," cried he to Weresford, who
was looking out of tho window";
"order my horse to he brought out."
A few minutes after, Toby, well
mounted, carrying behind his bag of
money, ?ind provided with his watch
and purse, at a moderate pace regain?
ed his house.
"I have just made my marriage
visit to your father," said ho $o Ed?
ward, whom he found there. ."I be?
lieve that we shall be able fb agree."
Two hours afterwards, Weresford
arrived at Toby's house, and taking
hint, aside:
"Honest Quaker," said h?, "your
proceeding has touched me to the
bottom of my soul; you might have
dishonored nie, have dishonored my
sou, ruined me in his estimation, and
have made him unhappy in refusing
liini your daughter; you have acted
like a wise man and a man of heart.
I wish no longer to blush in your
presence. Take these papers; good?
bye. You will never see me again."
He then left, and the Quaker open?
ed the papers; first, there werechecka
of large amounts on the best houses
in London ; then came a long list of
names, and by the side of each name
was placed the amount of larger er
smaller sums; a note was prefixed to
it, upon which the Quaker read as
follows :
"These arc tho mimes of those who
have been robbed; the.figures are the
amounts which ought to bc returned.
Draw the money from my bankers,
as though for the purpose of foreign
exchange, and thou make the restitu?
tion secretly. All that remains will
be my legitimate fortune, und your
daughter may bc able, some day, to
accept of my inheritance."
The next morning. Weresford had j
left London, and all believed "that he
was gone to live on his income in \
France. .
On tho marriage day of Edward 1
and Mary, tho Quaker assembled n
large company of joyous friends, |
iimong whom might be noticed a
number of persons rejoicing them
ielves with the proceeds of the Lon
lon thieves, who, by the interfereuce
jf Toby, had been induced to return
to them their lost property with in?
terest.
