The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, February 19, 1869, Image 4
AN OLD roon-16'JC
There is A garden in her fneo.
Where roses and white lilies blow; .
A heavenly paradise is that place,
Wherein all pleasant fruits do grow;
There cherries grow hat ?one ?say buy.
Till cherry-ripe themselves do cry.
Those cherries fairly .do inclose
Of orient pearls a double row,
Which when her lovely laughter flows,
They look like rose-bud s ?lied with snow;
Yet them nor peer nor prince may boy,
Till cherry-ripe themselves do cry.
Her .eyes like angels watch them still,
Her brows like bended bows do stand,
Threatening with piercing frowns to kill
All that approach with eye or hand
Those sacred cherries to como nigh,
Till cherry-ripe themselves do cry.

JOBBT PUTNAM. TUE SPY.
CONCLUDED.
''Hu! thou cursed rebel! we have theo at
last!" cried the ruffian Wolf. "Halloa,
there-stop, or, by George, we'll ninke
minced meat of thee-halloa-a-al"
"In the King's name, halt!" commanded
Captain Dick, or rather Captain Richard
Moles, a man superior, in some respects, to
bia companion.
?"?ha? I be deaf, or stupid, or Dutch?"
queried the pedlar to himself. "Open de?
fiance is a last resource." But he quickly
decided, as Wolf called out, "Halt! thou
base, low, peddling coward! or I'll crop
thine ears with my sabre." Nerving his
arm, be suddenly stopped, and turned to
meet them.
"The same, by the gods!" exclaimed
Dick, on observing the pedlar's brave face.
"Huzza! five hundred pounds! down on
thy marrow-bones, and beg thy life!"
"What want ye with me?" demanded tho
American.
. "Want? Ask our Colonel-ask tho gib?
bet on to-morrow's dawn! Want? why,
down, spy, on thy knees and surrender!"
"That will I not!" shouted the other,
with a sudden energy, that startled both
the soldiers. Flinging off his burden, by n
qnick motion, ii o caught up his club, and
with the first blow shivered to pieces the
sword uplifted by the Captain to arrest
him.
"Thy steel, Wolf ! he's broken minc.
Traitor 1 by Heaven, thou shalt die!"
''Nay, nay, it taketh two to make a bar?
gain," coolly said Putnam, and while the
Captain was grasping his pistols, another
blow from the staff discharged one of them
in-the pir, and so discomfitted him that for
a moment he remained inaotive.
Wolf struck the spy's shoulder with his
weapon, but made no dangerous wound,
and. boldly seizing him, the latter, by main
strength, dragged the burly fellow from his
saddle. "A thousand furies!" shrieked he,
"I believe thou art Satan."
"Let this convince thee!" cried the face?
tious pedlar, grasping the rascal's long
sword, and, by a powerful exertion, wrench?
ing it from him, and dropping his stick.
Bot by this time Dick had recovered, and
firing his remaining pistol, its ball entered
the pedlar's leg, causing him for an instant
to tremble with pain.
"Help!" screamed the conquered bully,
as he fell nuder a severe blow from his own
sword; and then,.as the Captain leaped
from his hmso to assist, the scene became
thrilling to excess.
The sword proving useless in this close
conflict, Putnam dexterously broke it in
pieces with his foot, and kicking tho pros?
trate soldier at the same time, grappled with
Dick, who was equal to him in strength and
courage.
"St. George for me!" cried the latter.
"God and liberty for me!" shouted tho
Continental.
"Dog! I have thee now!" muttered Dick,
clutching the other's throat. "Up, Wolf
up and aid me-I am choking bim!"
"Boast not yet," gasped the other, reco?
vering his hold.
"Take that!" said Wolf, picking up the
spy's stick and striking him with it.
"And take thou this, and may God par?
don me for it!" thundered the pedlar, as he
lifted his right arm, and drove his heavy
fist against the soldier's head, reddening it
with blood and brains. The unfortunate
man fell down dead, like an ox before the
butcher's axe.
At this awful sight, the Captain was ap?
palled, but by strong efforts maintained his
position. Thc pair fought like athletse,
struggling, striking and groaning in the
fierceness of their combat. At length the
spy fell on the grass, paralyzed by the
might of his powerful antagonist. "O,
Washington! Washington!" he moaned,
"must t fail at length? Nay-nay-"
"Curso thy doomed Washington!" ex?
claimed the other.
"Ab! this for thy fonl malediction," re?
torted the patriot, once more regaining
strength sufficient to return a fearful blow,
which sensibly affected the Captain, who
yet held tightly to the spy's throat, exe?
crating Washington and his rebels to the
uttermost.
But while bit senses were receding, and
hie eyes be-otring filled with blood, his
latent strength re-gathered itself. With au
embrace that might have smothered a bear,
he caused such excruciating pain, that Dick
was compelled io relinquish his grasp.
Then ho struck the soldier's temple, and
both fell down.
Fatigued, but not insensible, John Put?
nam recovered in half an hour sufficiently
to catch one of the steeds so lately crossed
by his enemies, and mounting, he galloped
to tho headquarters of Washington, who,
immediately after hearing the story of his
adventure, ordered tho bodies of the vic?
tims to bo buried. However, when sought
for, only the corpse of Wolf could bc dis?
covered. Doubtless the Cnptuin had reco
I vored, and retraced his path on tho remain?
ing horse.
John Putnam lived to nn bid age, bnt
after this achievement, bo left the army and
joined the Quakers. Nothing can be ad?
duced again at bis personal' bravery-ho al?
way* -remained a warm p?rsfenaF friend-' of
Washington, bat his mind tock a religious
bia?, the peculiarities of which are always
respected in so honest a man. It was the
blood, he said, of the man killed by his own
clenched fist, that ever after tinged bis
thoughts with melancholy.

Globe Mutual Life Insurance Co., of N. Y.
CAHH ASSF.TS JANUARY 1, 1869, $1,171,000.
INCORPORATED 18?4
Has been in operation but four years, during
which time it has assured a larger amount than
any Company in tho United Staten, during a cor?
responding period of existence Ono of the chief
causea of its organization, was tho forfeiture by
several Northern Companies of tho policies of
Soutberuers, during the war. The leading officers
of this Company protested against this injusti^o,
and on RH consummation, withdrew and orga?
nized tho "GLOBE MUTUAL," on principles more
liberal and just than those yet adopted by any
other Insurauce Company. In the event of death
iu battlo or in a duel, the equitable valuo of tho
policy will be returned to tho heirs. ALL other
Companies forfeit it. In case of suicido, tho
FULL Policy is paid. No restriction on travol.
This Company has, in its guarantee fund of
$500,000, an element of strength possessed by no
other Company. It offers the entirely new featuro
of Probability Endowment, which gives the
largest possiblo sum for tho premium paid. No
other Company posso-ses this featuro. Insures
children of any age. In tho moderation of its
premium rates, in tho vari? ty of its tables, in its
dividends and in the security ofb-rcd insurrr?, it
invites comparison with any other Company.
