The violet, With tnossmns blue and mild.
Wares o’er thy head ; when shall it wave
Above thy child.

It’s bright leaves to the coming tempest bow;
Dead mother, ’tis thine emblem^dust

And I could love to die:
Toleave untasted life's dark, tdtter streams:
By thee, up tlrst in childhood, lie,
And share dreams. J
And must I linger here.
To stain the plumage of my sinless 3*fftrs,
And mourn the hopes to childhood dear,
With bitter tears ?
Ay, nuist I linger here,
A lonely branch upon a withered tres.
Whose last frail leaf, untimely sere,
Went down with thee?
Oft. from life’s withered bower,
In still communion with the past, 1 turn
And muse on thee, the only flower
In Memory’s urn.
And when the cvefiftig pale.

Where is thy spirit flown ?
I gaze above—thy look is imaged there;
I listen—and thy gentle tone
Is en the air.
Oh. come, while here I press
Mr brow upon fhy gr.ire; and. in those mild
And thrilling iiofes of tenderness,
Bless, bless thy child!

And o’er thy urn—Religion’s holiest shrine,

and then placed it quietly in her mother'*
hand.
“He i» safe,” she remarked, in a low, ten
der voice. ; ‘Aud now that onr army has
surrendered, them will be no more battles
and he soon will bo with us again."
After a while the April morning became
chill, and she arose and retired to the parlor.
The windows were open, and they heard her
playing a low, pensive strain. Suddenly
the music ceased, and the next instant Lil
ian’s face appeared at the window, the cheek
flushed, the eyes startling and eager.
“Henry 1’’she cried breathlessly. ‘Where
is Henry, mother?"
“What do you mean, Lilian ?” she asked
her sister, wonderiagly.
“Is Henry here? 1 heard him call me.”
‘•you arc dreaming, my child. Henry is
not hero.”
She looked around anxiously, and shading
her eyes with her hand, she gazed toward
the west.
“Ho must be here," she said, tremb
ling with excitement, “he is in the garden
or down in the meadow. I heard him call
me twice, and from that direction ?"
The family, and even some of the ser
vants accompanied her as she proceeded has
tily to the garden, calliug, “Henry 1—Whore
are you ?”
The garden and meadow, and even the
wood beyond, were searched, bht in vain ;
and disappointed and wondering, the party
returned to the house. Yet Lilian persist,
cd, then and ever after, that she had dis
tinctly, whilst playing Lieut. A’s favourite
air, experienced a sudden shock “as of a
splash or spray of cald water,” and had at
the same instant heard his voice calling

and faintly than before.

rapping herself in her travelling shawl, went
quietly down stairs, and crossed the piaxza

was seen to take her way direetly toward the
old church by the river. j
Thither, a half*hour later, her father and
sister, accompanied by the clergyman, follow

They trackd her to the churchyard gate,
which she had been seen to enter. This
lay between the church and the river bank,
which was here high and steep. Following
the track which her footprints had made in
the long rack grass, they passed through the
churchyard and out at another small gate on
the side next the river. Hera close to the
churchyard fence was an enclosure, contain
ing several graves, planted with roses and
shaded by a large widow and magnolia.
‘This is what we call the stranger’s bury

proached it.

the low bows to the magnolia. Thoughtless

BENJAMIN F. WHITrEMOHE, VERSUS NEGRO
- HONESTY.
That there arc ir.ire roysters-a in heaven
nfi'l earth than arc dreamed of iu our every
day philosophy, no one of reasonable intelli
gence will refuse to behove. That there are
spiritual influences surrounding us, which
are occasionally made manifest to. though
nut understood by human perceptions, seems
a truth established Ity many curious coinci
dences Frequent casts of this kind hate
come to my knowledge; but l know none
more inexplicable than the following related
by a gentleman of high standing who was
himself personally acquainted with the cir
cumstances of the case and the parties con
cerned.
Iu 18(53, Lieutenant A , a young
and gallant officer of the Confederate army,
became engaged to Lilian B , a daughter
■of Judge 15——, of Georgia—a young la
dy of more than ordinary beauty and intelli-’
genec. She was remarkable for a peculiar
sensitiveness te wh it are called “nervous in
fluences,’’ such :is the effects of the weather, j
ofmuric. of scenery.'Ac.,; and though never
really ill was always in delicate health In
appearance she was fair anil frag 1 ■. and in
banding of his regiment, some three days af
ter the evacuation of Columbia, that since
which time nothing was known of him.
So time passed, and Lieutenant A '»

Aged about 25.
Found drowned, April 10, 18G5.
This was all that was ever known con
cerning his fate. The body had drifted
ashore just below the graveyard, and those
who had buried him had inscribed upon his
grave the name marked upon his clothing.
Matrimony in this matter or fact age is
generly a more business transaction, utterly
devoted of the tender and delightful charac
teristics of the days of chivalry, and a very
different affair from those told of by fiction-
writers. Occasionally, however, some young
couple, following the promptings of loving 1
hearts, refuse to heed the advice of cool,
calculating parents, and got up a marriage
with a spice of romance in it worthy of the
day* of knight-errantry. As eass in point
occurred in this city a short time ago. We
tell it as 'twas told to us.
About four years since a young man came
from Anderson county, Kentucky, to this
city, and began the pursuits of life as a gro
cer’s clork. He became acquainted with a
young lady about two years since aud loved
her. Her parents,shortly after the formation
of the acquautauce, removed to North
Vernon', Indiana. Time rolled on, aud a
regular corrcrpondenee was kept up until
about a week ago. when the young man left
Louisville to bring hisloved one home. He
went through the task of asking the “old
folks,” but, instead ofsaying yes, they locked
the youug lady up, and positively refused to
permit the mnrrage to take place. The
young man returned to the city almost dis
consolate and without even a consoling
thought, but, determined not to give way to
useless grief, wont to work as usual.

expressed by the leading journals of the
country, Mr. Whit (amove has disgraced
the position which he occupied to such a de
gree that under no circumstance:; could he
hope for restoration, by his constituents; we
learn that it is hispurposa to appeal to the peo
ple to send him backagxrn as a means cfvindl-
eating his course; we believe that t’r • largest
vote which he received was that oft ho colored
people in his district, wo know that they have
been made to believe that no man was ever
so great as Mr. Whittemore, but we are great
ly mistaken if, when they are informed of
the terpitude of his crime, iftheywiil ever cast
a vote for him to return to Congress, as their
representative. We k now that there is a cer

people arc the greatest dupos iu creation, aud
that any mean white man from the north
may bribe them to do anythiug that they
may wish done, but we can assure the coun
try that there are no negroes so debased iu
this State who. when informed of that gentle
man's conduct, will cast hie vote to return
him to Congress, and thus disgrace themselves
by partaking of his crime.
We protest, iu the name of the outraged
people against any attempt of either Mr.
Whittemore or any of his friends bo disgrace

And in tho meanwhile the public money
was squandered, the public means was eaten
up by taxation, the hvbore was turned against
his employer, trade languished and would
not be quickened into' healthy life. The
golden grain waved in the fields, and the
liec.y cotton bleached the parching soli; but
tlte State was still prostrate, and her people,
however they walked erect, had no certainty
for to-day »nd little hope for the morrow.
1’eering into the pat, the people caw that
•vital they wanted was Peace—a peace which
half a decade of toiling and striving had not
given them. They demanded an honest and
equal government, economy in tlte adminis-
iratiou of public affairs, r.u union of all class
es for the improvement of the State, a gen
eral joir.iug of hands, that every man might
do his part in restoring our ancient prosperi
ty. And these they saw were wholly dis
tinct trout the policies of the past or the poli
tical parts of the prcooni. They demanded
uo triumph of this pat ty or that, of one color
or tho ether; all that they demanded was
such a government as would give equal and
exact justice to all, and combine the citizens
of the Plate in one grand Party to give South
Carolina the public men and the public
measures ncecussry to the consumation we
all so devoutly desire.
All this is the meaning of the spontaneous
declarations which come to the seaboard from
the mountains—which are murmured by the
palmettos of the o 7 country, and swell into
broader harmonies among the pines of the
North and West. This is the meaning of the '
sturdy avowal, coming from every quarter of
the State, that the people have abandoned
fop the time political thought and political
action, and address themselves now to the
mighty work of retrenchmest end reform.
This is the meaning of the declaration of the
’Press Conference, that all the friends of good
government must band together to obtain
the good and avoid the had.

In this Medicine consists in the selection of ingredieotf
containing curative and nourishing properties that sop-

which, in a condition of disease and depravity, it to defi
cient of, together with the combination of the several
ingredient* that form the SAllBATAUILL1 AN REBOXr
