Thou art GSod Alone.

And gazing o'er tho deco,
Watching thc billow s seething foam.
While storms their revels keep;
My soal is tilled with solemn awe,
"While listening to their tone,

Lord, "Thou art God alone."

Tho forest's gloomy shade,
Tho ghuvt mountain's gr?mt? Bides,
Ail nature's vast arcade
Tin praise, in many a varied way.
To sponk, aro ever prone.
Wc listening, hear it all around,
Yes, "Thou art God alone.'
Thou 'gravest it in living words
Upon our inmost soul,
VVhcn dire misfortune's blast is heard,
And clouds of anguish roll; .
From out tho thick and murky clouds,
? e hear Thy gout lo tono
"Fear not, I'm with theo to tho encl.
For I am God alone."

Though hosts of bell combine,
1'hc Lord of Heaven is God alone,
That God ip ever thine;
He'll shield and guide thee; by aud by.
Will claim thea as his ow-n;
When nature sink , He'll i aise thee up.
For ho is God alone.
CHAPTER m.
Meanwhile, poor Ellen waited anx?
iously in the cavern, and as soon as
the first possible moment for Paulett's
return was passed, her fears grew
strong. There was so much danger
for him in the bare desert, with his
scanty supply of water, that she
might well listen to fear as soou as it
had any reason to make itself heard;
and .with this dread, when she next
drew water from her ?scanty supply,
came the horrible torment of the
anticipated death by thirst, which
seemed descendingupon her children
and her. Tho day sho had thoughl
he would return rose and set, and sc
. did another aud another; and frone
fearing she had begun to believe, in
deed, that Paulott's earthly hours
Avero passed; yet hope would not tn
subdued entirely; and then she felt
that perhaps by prolonging theil
lives another day only, she shoulc
savo them to welcome him, and tc
profit by his hard-earned treasure
The store of water was sacredly pre
cious. She dealt it out in tho small
est portions to her children, and sh<
herself scarcely wetted her lips; sh
hardened her heart to see her boy'
pale face, her girl's feverish eye; sh
checked even the motherly tender
ness of her habits, lest the softenini
of her heart should overcome" he
resolution; and so sho laid them i:
their beds the third night of he
dread, when, indeed, there wa
scarce another- day's supply. Sh
herself lay on her's, but deadly ans
iety kept her from sleeping, and he
ears ached wfth the silence whic
ought to have been broken by a ster
And at last, oh, joy! there was afoot
Yes; a few moments made that oei
tain which, from the first, indeed
she believed, but which was so fain
that it wanted confirmation to he
bodily sense. Up sprang Ellen, an
darted to meet him. She held foi
ward thc candle into the air, and lc
it was a woman. Ellen screame
aloud; the woman had seen her bc
fore, and said nothing-only presse
forward. "Who are you?" erie
Ellen; "are you alive?'' "Yes, jus
alive; and see here," said the wc
mon, uncovering the face of he
young child; "my child is just aliv?
too. Give me water before it dies. "
"Then my children will perish,
said Ellen.
"No, no," said tho woman; "ho'
aro you alive now, unless you hav
plenty? All mino are gone but thi
one. My husband died yesterday
ours has been gone days."
"My husband is dead, too," sai
Ellen, "anti I have only one draugl
left."
"Then I will take it," said tl:
mother, rushing forward.
Ellen caught her and struggle
with her. The poor child moane
in its mother's arms, and a pang sh<
through tho breast of Ellen. "Ft
God's sake, miserable woman," si
said, "do not go near that basil
You aro mad with want; you wi
leave none for my children. Sta
here and I will bring your chi
water. You and I can want, ar
. :r.< and mine can drink."
lint tho desperate woman passe
on, her eyes fixed on tho water ar
flated with intenso desire; her Iii
?..ide open, dying almost for tl
draught. Ellen's soul was conoe:
trated in thc fear that the last hoj
of her boy aiK1 girl'? life was aboi
to be lost; .sho struggled with tl
woman with all her might; si
?erearaed aloud; sho lost her hoi
she seized a pistol from tho tabl
and, closo as she was to her adve
nary, fired it full at her. Tho moth
fell with a shriek. Ellen started fo
ward and broke her fall, and la
hold on the child to free it from h
dying grasp.
"Give him mo, givo him mo!" sa
the mother, struggling to lift herse
np, and stretching hor hands ont fi
the boy.
Tho trembling Ellen stooped
give him to her, but tho child's het
drooped on one sido as she held hi
ont. Ho made no effort to v/it in
his mother's arms. Ellen wild
raised his faco, and ho was dead, to
Tho shot had gono through b
breast to his mother's, and a litl
blood bogan to steal from his lips.
"He's dead!" said the mother, wi
was herself passing away. "Oh, u
boy!" and then feebly, with her fai
failing strength, she raised him, ail
mor? than ono effort, in hw ?rn
and pressed her lips to his. twice with
all the passion that death loft in her.
The wasted form of the child lay
there, all pale and withered; the
straight brown hair was parted on
his thia forehead; the mother's un?
covered breast, where his head rest?
ed, was white, and the hands deli?
cate; the raiment was luxurious; that
head had not been reared in expecta?
tion of dying on a bed of rock.
Ellen burst into ft flood of tears, aad
wrung her hands as she stood by,
looking on what she had done.
The woman hf ted her eyes and tried
to form her lips into a smile; she no
longer felt any vehement passion, and'
the torment of thirst waa. now only
one of the pangs of death. Her eyes
wandered to the water, but when
Ellen moved to fetch some, she stop?
ped her. .
"No; it was for him. He is at ease
now. You did right.. Don't grieve."
"Forgive me," said Ellen, kneeling
at her Ride.
"Oh, yes! the pour, precious babe
suffers no more. I was mad; you
said truly in that. I nursed him at
my breast till his lips grew dry even
there; wo lived not far from your
cavern, and I have seen you, and been
glad you Irad water. Wc had some.
We? " Yes; is not my husband dead;
and my boy is dead, too! Sec! there
is blood on his face; wipe it away; he
will die else." Ellen's sobs caught
her wandering attention. "I remem?
ber now; you killed him! Oh, good
angel, guardian angel! You have
killed him, and there is only I to suf?
fer. He is gone from this dear, dear
body ! I wish it did not look so like
him still-it looks in pain, too-it
looks thirsty." Ellen hid her own
face on tho mother's shoulder for au
instant-her children had awakened
at thc noise of the pistol, and they
were out of bed and clinging around
her; her sorrow roused theirs, and
the sound of their lamentation reach?
ed the dying woman's ear. "There
are my children crying. Alasl I
thought they had all been dead."
"They are mine," said Ellen.
"Yours are at rest; yours are all
dead."
"Thank God!" said the mother;
and, though the words were earnest,
the voice was faint; all the effort of
nature was in them, but they came
feebly from her lips. After that, in?
distinct sounds and murmured names
only were heard; her breath came in
gasps, and at long and longer inter?
vals, till the faint shuddering of her
limbs ceased by degrees, and, after it
had been insensible to the world foi
awhile, the spirit quitted it forever.
Ellen's heart died within her; hei
senses were troubled, and sho pressed
herself in Paulett's arms without
knowing when he came or being sur?
prised that he was there.
"Oh, Paulett!" she said, atlast, "1
have not done wrong, but it is sc
dreadful!'/
Paulett soon gathered from her a].
that had happened, and gazed witL
pity on what had once been a beauti?
ful form, but rejoiced that it suffered
no longer. Ellen, shuddering, ar?
ranged tho dress, composed th?
limbs, and, with a thousand tears,
I placed the infant on that breast which
j had been so faithfully its mother tt
the last. Aud there they slept-mo
I thor and child-the day of trouble
ended for both.
I "My poor Ellen," said Paulett, "]
wish it were thou and my childrer
who wero there at rest!" and Ellei
pressed her Charles and her Alice tc
her heart, and would have been glac"
if they had, indeed, been dead.

To the Press of South Carolina, j

you, gentlemen, that with vour littoral aid, ?
there ts everv probability that tho BURAL !

weeks. A Vw g'mtlemcn aro aetively at i
work for it. and if a few such men in each j
District would make a little effort, thc en- l
torprise would be secured.
The present condition of our labor will
cause our farmers a ul planters to seek out
such implements HS will enable them to
reduce tho number of laborers, and, as far
as possible, make themselves independent ?
of the most unreliable and unruly. To aid
therain this desirable object, a pract ical and I
intelligent planter, connected with thc i
RURAL, will be assigned the duty of
searching for and testing thc many labor?
saving implements now used in all parts of
our country, and report upon them through
our columns. Those found adapted to our
section will be finely illustrated, and ar- '
rangements will be made by us with the \
manufacturers to supply our* farmers and
planters with them at tho lowest prices. In
this way, a liberal support of the RU RAI.
will secure a practical benefit to the South?
ern people.
To accomplish these good intentions, tho
RURAL must first receive a reasonable
assurance of support. All we ask is 2,500
good subscribers. Surely our farmers and
plantera can give us that number to secure
so great benefits to themselves.
