CROMWELL'S dissolution of the bump
paeliament.
tiio 20th, 1053, is the date of tlie
memorable event. The I'arlinment by
whioh Char'es I. hnd been met and overcome,
had dwindled by various purgation*
to about, fifty-three members, who aimed
at becoming a mild oligarchy i'or the adKoiniFtrntion
of the commonwealth. They
wero deliberating on a bill for future representation,
in which they should have a
' permanent place, wlien Cronnvoll resolved
to make an end of them. It was the
last incident in the natural scries of a revolution,
placing military power above all
oilier.
Cronwol], having ordered a company of
musketeers to follow Lira, ontcred the
house in"plain black clothes and worsted
Blockings," and, 6ilting down, listened for
a while to their proceedings. Hearing
at length the question put, that the bill do
pass, he rose, put oft' his hat, and began
tn crtf?iilr Tn f umii-jfl **(
lie told ibotn of their self-seeking anJ delays
of justice, till at length Sir Peter
Wentwortli interrupted him with a re1
moostranco against such language. Tlicn I
blazing up, he said, "wo have hud enough
of this ; 1 will put au end to yout prating."
Stepping into the floor of the house, ]
j and clapping 011 hid hat, ho commenced a
violent harangue, which he occasionally !
emphasized by stamping with his feet, and ;
which came iuainly to this : "It is not fit
you should sit here any longor?you have
I sat too long for any good you have been
I doing lately. You shall give place to
| oiiuer men. "ouii inera in s lie exclaim- j
ed, and bis officer Harrison and a file of
J soldiers entered tbe llouso. Theu pro- i
ceeding: "You are no parliament ? Some
of you are druulcards"?bending n stern
eye upon Mr. Chaloner ; "some of you are
? ? ?,"a word e.Tpiessive of a worse
immorality, and be looked at iienry Martin
and Sir Peter Wenlwortli ; "living in
oj'eu contempt of God's commandments.
Some of you aie corrupt, unjust persons ;
bow chii von bft n nnrli>miMiit fur fi.wl'j
people ? Depart I say, and let us Lave
done wl?h you. (.Jo I"
He lifted hia mace from the table and
gave it to u musketeer, to be taken away,
lie caused Harrison to give his band to
Speaker Lumbal a.d lead bim down
from tbe chair. The members, cowed
by his violence and the night of bis armed
tnon, moved gloomily out of tbe house.
"It is the Lord that hath caused me to do
thip," he said, 4"1 have sought that he would
niiij nit; iniuu i<ii<1 II jiui? iii'] vj|111 uuiiJ? ,

lemonstrance. "Oh, Sir Hurry Vftue,"
exclaimed the lord general, "the Lord deliver
tne from Sir llarry Vane !" When
all bad gone out, be came out too, and
lucked tbe door. From that time he was
master of the three kingdoms for about i
five and a half years.

; so long shrouded the bright Fcenea of
i youth, iB lifted to night, and again I am a
merry, laughing child ; onco more I chase
the gaudy-winged butterfly, or pluck the
frngiant flowers at dear old Lingrove.
Two fair companions are beside inc. The
first is Effy, our romping, joyous sister,
with her dark, glowing face and playful
way?, more beautiful in her artless innocence
than words can tell. Tho other is
pearl, our fair, gentle darling, whoso blue
eyes and golden hair made us think of the
angels, and wonder if ihcy are not all thus
fair and lovely. Then, to complete the
group, there is our stately mother, and our
i dear grandfather and graudmothcr. Ilow
well I remember them all, as, seated iu the
little parlor, we were deeply interested lis?

I wondrous adventure of his younger days?

I aud how the night be/ore ho was to be

I savage captor* had sought repose, ho made
! his escape, and wandered for uiiles through
the lonely forest, until at last, reaching a
settlement on the banks of tho Ohio, he
faiDted and fell at the door of a beautiful
white cottage. It was for weeks before ho
recovered, and then he lingered loath to
leave thi3 pleasant asylum, because he
had learned to love tho fair girl who- had

GREENWOOD ASSOCIATION.
Saturday, I3lli of October, wi?b h day of
much interest to llie soldiers and citizens in
Greenwood Hud surrounding country. Perhaps
since the surrender no spun of time has been
productive of so much good. Enough to sny,
the grand object of the occasion was sufficient
to elicit the warmest sympathies of all present,
and awaken tlio elumberiug patriotism and
lethargy of all who were ubseut. To be one of
those present on that occasion, was truly a privilege
rarely enjoyed; aud to be absent, when a
kind invitatiou was extended, is a matter to
reconcile with one's self. 'Tisvad, indeed, to kuow
the nurture of patriotism rests in the hands of
so few, when all 111*0 equally interested ; however,
it is truly refreshing to see that few all
alive to its importance. The lamented dzad
would constitute the largest portion of our
worthy patriot*, wore they here ; but, perhaps,
'tis best for those noble men that they sleep in
their soldier graves undisiurbed by vain regrcte,
theirs is n happy rest. None who have shared
the hardships of camp life, and the risks upon
battle- field*; con but feel an affection for eneli
other dearer than that mere cord of friendship
between citizens.
For the first lime since the surrender of our
iimiict* uuve iiiu uuiuicid ui um una adjoining
District* taut in association to do homage to their
lamented comrade* uod living representative*).
Surely it behooves uh who cscapcd the fate of the
lata war to perpetuate and cherish tho memory
of those who fell, or otherwise diod. Then,
as living partners of the sume cause, bound together
by common sufferings, dangers and trials,
united by tics of nffection and friendship, we
earnestly ask nl! our former associates in arms
to join us.
Tho appointed hour for lioldmg llie meeting
having arrived, t'ne entire crowd, upon a tap of
iDc l>eli, adjourned lo tlie l'resfoyterlun cburcli.
The house was called to order, and upon motion
of Clip'. J- F. Townaond, Col. Aiken was chosen
Chairman of the meeting, and W. A. Liuiliecker,
Secretary. Col. Aiken stated tho object
of tlie meeting, in a happy and expressive
manner, strongly Betting forth the imperative
necessity of forming an association such as the
present is designed to be. Me eloquently alluded
to tlie contrast between t'.ie present meeting and
the one held in Greenwood outerior to tlio beginning
of the l<?te war, expressed his great satisfaction
upon meeting so niuuy of his old comradeH,
and touchingly spoke of the abntnl ones
; who lay upon nvany haltlc-fiehto, and in distant
j graveyards. In f.ict, he made, r.s usual, one of
II tho*e happy efforts which have ever given character
to him ns an able thinker aud good speaker. J
Upon motion, a committee of five was ap- j
^wnuiu iu uiuib ^ruurcuui)ra jur wie ixieeung,
consisting of S. P. Boozer, F. A. Townsend, B.
K. Murcliiaon, James Junes and J. F. Towueend.
After a short absence the committe returned
with the following preamble nod resolution*;
Whereas since our urnis were laid down, and
cause lo*t, a large portion of our community has
bcoii left ia a destitute condition, among whom
are the families of many of our comrades
who fell in battle, or were maimed for life} therefore,
Re it resulted, That we, the survivors of the
old Bri^ude, commanded at different times by 1
Gens. Dunhnm, Kershaw, .Conner and Kennedy,
ireling it our duty to relieve tho wants of our
indigent coinrudce, assist and protect the destitute
families of our lamented dead, and also to
preserve a correct record of the services of our
command, do invite oil who were members of
tho brigade at any time, und whose soldierly
conduct witi) unspotted, to join us in forming an
association for those purposes.
