Mr. Editor:
As you do not often hear from this
Ejection of the country ami as vo
really have something worthy of your
attention, we presume to aak fur a
Hille of your valuable space. We
propose to give voma short account
of u Pie-Nic or Fish Dinn?i'iut the

A number of the young men met at
the Lakes at an catly hour, ami by
ri< tning were successful in securing a
largo quantity of./'-?'<. About nine
o'clock the people began to gather
and entered at once on the enjoyments
of the day. The married belies, with
the assistance of the servants, gave
tlidir attention to thepile,* of iish they
found awaiting them, *hiletheol ler
irifcn stood around and discussed the
orop?, the price of cotton, polities etc.
I "heard one old gentleman say, Mr.
Haves was n much heiter man than
ho expected him to prove, and as to
the veto, he did not blame him for not
Wanting to surrender his control of
* lie arm*; but the young people, whose
enjoyment is always mostintcuse on
these occasions, were amusing them
selves in various'ways. Pome'were
out in the buitts enjoying a ride on the
bosom of I he quiol lake, causing the
leathered songsters to he silent ?villi
their wild song:, and listen to tho
snctt wnrblings of these other songs
ters, making the swamp ring with
their voices.
Inuring the dav a meeting was call
ed nnd a permanent society organized,
looking to an niinuul gathering of
leopleat the same thh'o and place.

A hont live o'clock the preparations

Mr. Davis .as a Senator.
IIom.y llu i, July, 1st IS79.
; Mr. lufitor :
; ? J notice in your last issue what y hi
say iiboul Jeflbrson Davis and the
1 Mississippi Seuutorship, and agree
with you. To my mind it seems a
most unfortunate thing that the mal
lor should be so much as monticned.
11' elected, it is impossible that he
j should .o'. lor pardon, without falling
I from that high position which lie ha.;
.-o hmg held in tiie hearts of the
Southern people, and without coin
promising the manly position taken
by him al the close of the war. J ut
there are weightier reasons why Mr.
Davis should do nothing, to change
the position he holds towards the
South.
Mr. Davis marks an epoch in
Ameiicau history, in his person as
President of the Confederate States.
The record of Mr. Davis is
that of a noble man, one that he in
common with his whoie people can
look on with pride; and let us hon?j
he win not just now do ought to
change in any way the view wo now
have of him?

Pic-Nie at Union Ohurch.
Fokk ok Emst July 1st 187'J.
Mr, tMitor:
When a man knows or enjoys n
gcod thing, he is sure to, tell it, just
so with your humble servant, and
you will greatly oblige, ifyqtl will
allow this manifesto of enjoyment to
appear through the columns of your
val liable journal.
Saturday, June 28th iust., was the
day appointed for the Pie Nie at
grand ohl Union. The veil of dark
uess gradually disappearing before
the breaking dawn, filled the minds
bl the people with gloomy forebod
ings on account of the threatening
aspect of the weather, and lew enter
tained an idea of pleasure.
Put in a short time the sun came
foith in all her splendor, dispelling
the dark clouds, a.id wo were blessed
with a most beautiful day, all nature
seeming to smile upon the joyous
occasion.
Up to 10 o'clock A. M., ihero wore
very lew persons on the grounds, an 1
the prospect lor a pic nie appeared
rather slim. Bui the enthusiastic
people of Union soon began to pour
in and swell the happy throng. By
eleven o'clock quite a largo crowd
had assembled, and aller feasting on
ice-cream and lemonade, which was
gotten up by the ladies, for some
purj o-e I do not know, at any rate
they realized a handsome little sum,
they repaired to the Church to receive
;i treat more substantial, in the form
of n lecture from their able an 1 be
loved Pastor, Key J, A. Clifton.
Aller (he address, the choir conclud
ed with "Wear the Gross " The si-i
ing was sublime, and the melody re
verl Crating in sweet accord, filled
every heart with celeiti il bliis.
s-\ (Hi aller jJiuner was announced,
and a .T.sh was made for the tables,
which were groaning under their
wi ight of de licacics of every descrip -
lion.
i cannot, eulagi/.o loo highly the
hospitable people of Union. Suffice
i i to say, thai every stranger i< in ade
to leel at hoiuc, cither at their festi
vals or around their prosperous, hap
py firesides.
Tho^lav passed ofi'pleasantly, and
nut an incident occi rred to mar the
pleasure of a single soul. And when
my memory i everts to that day for
ever fled, I sigh to ho with my geuer- j
on-, friends of * Union, and hope at
their next social gathciing, when
du t rihuling their hearty invitations,
they will not neglo et,

Ttie fate of one who east hid brjad
upon the waters.
On Black Friday R.but M. Mar
tin, a broker doing business in Wall
street, Ne?v York, lost $700,000. IU
subsequently relrieved his 'os.se.? until
his check was good for half a million.
He was a generous, open-handed
man, and liberal to a fault. It is said
I that ho now has outstanding in this,
city SI00,000 in leans made by him
to friends, and that he gave a prorai- .
neat church $10,000 to assist in re
lieving it of debt, and $10,000 more
to help build a school in connection
with the church. Misfortuue again,
overt<x)'< him and he lost all. In
February last he was consignod to
Lud low street jail for a debt of only
$800. Jn vain he appealed to thoio
friends who were indebted to him to
come to his assistance. Nut one
responded. He applied, it issaid, on
diflerent occasions, to the pastor of **'
the church to which he bad m i la his . *
tnagnilicent gift, hut receivo 1 n>
response, until in desporatio i lt3 as'i
ed lor enough to buy a p >st:tgj stlrou,
and the minister sent him one dollar.
At length nature gave way. Paraly
sis of the brain ensued, and on Friday
Dr. OBrbn, the physich n in charge
of the county jail, took him to the
Hudson River State Hospital for the
Insaue, at L'oughkeepsie. He is
pronounce I incurable. Mr. Martin
is fifty years of age, and hia wife is

What an Old Man has Noticed.
I have notieod that all men are
honest when well watched.
I have noticed that purses will hold
pennies as well as pounds.
I have noticed that in order to bja
reasonable creature, it is nocassary
at times to be downright mad.
I have noticed that silks, broad
cloths and jewels are often bought
with other people's money.
I have noticed that whatever is,
j is right, with lew exceptions?the loft,
I eye and the left leg, and the left sido
of a plum pudding.
I have noticed that the prayer of
the selfish man is, "Forgive us out
debts," while ho makes evoryhody
that owes him pay to tho utmost
j farthing.
I have noticed that he who thinks
every man a rogue, is ccrtaiu to sen
one wheu he shavos himself, and ho
1 ought, in mercy to his neighbor, to
! surrender the rascal t?jo??'?/,ce.
I have noticed, that ruoney is the
fool's wiv'om, the knave's reputation,
the poor man's desire, tho covotous
man's ambition, and the idol of thorn
all.

It is more honorable and dignified
