WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14. LOVE ME NOW. If you're ever going to love me, Love me now while I can know All the sweet and tender feelings Which.from real affection flow. Love me now whHe I am living? Do not wait tili I am gone, And then chisel it in marble? Warm love-words on ice-cold stone. rf If you've dear, sweet thoughts about me, Why not whisper them to me? Don't you know 'twould make me happy, As glad as glad can be? If you wait till I am sleeping, Ne'er to waken here again, There'll be walls of earth between us, And I couldn't hear you then. If you knew some one was thirsting For a drop of water sweet. Would you be so slow to bring it ? Would you step with laggard feet ? There are tender hearts all 'round as Who are thirsting for our love ; Shall we begrudge to them what heaven Has kindly sent us from above? I won't need your kind caresses When the grass grows o'er my face . I won't crave your love or kisses - In my last, low resting place, So, if you do love me any, If it's but a little bit, Pd rather know it now, while I Can, living, own and treasure it. ?New York Time?. Ex-Gov, Aiken Dead. One of the Eichest Ante-Bellum Statesmen* Ex-Governor Wm. Aiken died Sep tember 7 th, at his country place al 'Plat Kock, North Carolina, aged 81/ ' He was Governor of South Carolina in 1844, and Congressman from 1851 to 1857. He was the largest slave holder in the State, and was a suc cessful rice planter. Wm. Aiken was born in Charleston m 1806, graduated at the South Car olina college in December 1825, em barked soon after for Europe and travelled for several years on the continent- He returned to Cbarles -tou in 1829, and in 1S30 became possessor of Jehossse island, on the Pon Pon river, some thirty miles south of Charleston. The island, containing nearly four thousand acres, was admirably adapted to rice. cul ture. Its new proprietor at once ad dressed himself with great skill and energy to its development, devoting himself to this labor for many years. Commencing with, the cultivation of three hundred acres, he soon had in use two thousand. He executed large works in canaling and embank ments, so as to command ample sup plies of fresh water. lie erected his own rice mills, threshing and other machines. His negroes, 1000 in number, were settled in neat and comfortable houses, disposed in vil lages beautifully grouped, and were said to exhibit a remarkable degree of comfort and contentment. In 1838 Governor Aiken was drawn from his retirement and pri vate .pursuits by the people and sent to .the State Legislature, and was re turned again in 1840. In 1842 be was- elected Senator, from the same parishes," without opposition. In 1844 he was made Governor of the State. In 1850 he was elected tep resentative to Congress, re-elected without opposition in 1852 and 1854, and declined re-election in 1856. - In the State Assembly and in Con gress his conduct was marked always by good sense and a rare amenity of manners. He was not a debater, and never ambitious of oratorical dis play. He cultivated the social char ities in public life, was uniformly mild of temper, gentle in bearing, unobtrusive in society, unpretending 5n discourse and conciliatory to op ponents. He was supported by the Democratic members for the speakers7 chair and lacked but a single vote of i success. He was regarded as one of those persons who at the time of great political bitterness, might be looked to as capable of reconciling the most hostile extremes. Governor Aiken was one of the wealthiest men in the South before the war. He employed his wealth judiciously, contributed greatly to local enterprises, and was distin guished by munificent charities, be stowing large donations upon the Orphan Asylum of Charleston, con tributing to the endowment of the Charleston College and other public institutions of his native city. He I consistently opposed nullification and secession, and took no part in politics after leaving Congress. He was also one of the first appointed trustees of the Feabody ??*ad. ?-^mwn>-- * * mm Macon and Mr. Davis Macox, September 6 ?A mass meet ing was held iu the Academy of Music to-night to make arrangements for the Jefferson Davis reception and enter tainment and a grand reunion of all surviving Confederate veterans. It was most enthusiastic. Arrangements were perfected for a roster call on the day of the reunion, and a review by ex-Presi dent Davis. Communications assure the largest gathering of old soldiers and generals of the Confederacy since the close of the war. The most iiberal contributions were made to cover the expenses ever had here for any public occasion. En trance from many Georgia commands has been already made. It is estimat ed there will be 30 000 soldiers present. There will be a two-dayV encampment ib the fair grounds. The most celebrat ed artist in the country ha.?1 been engag ed to make an historic painting of the review by ex-President Davis. Gov. Richardson Marries a Runaway Couple. Mr. H. A. Harth and Miss Rachael David, both of Columbia, were married by the Governor in the Executive Man sion, upon the 6th instant. It was a romantic affair, the groom being a Christian and the bride a Jewess, and the parents of the latter in entire igno rance of the intended marriage. They are said to be greatly distressed by her action. The couple immediately after the ceremony left on the train for Augusta, en route to Knoxville, where Mr. Harth purposes establishing him self in business. i?> w - The Cylinder Gin Company of j Charleston recently shipped one of their j Mason Cylinder Gins to Russia for use in that country. The company making I the order are interested in the cultiva- J tion of cotton in Southern Russia, and j two years a^o sent Mr. Peter Sleiskin to the United States to study the culti- ! vation of cotton here and its preparation for market. Among other things Mr. j Sleiskin was instructed to examine all the cotton gins made in this country and to select the best gin he could find and ship some of them;-to Russia'. Mr. Sleiskin examined a large number of gins manufactured by the principal gin manufacturers, from Massachusetts down to Louisiana, and paid the Mapon ?ylinder Gin the high compliment of selecting it as in his judgment the best gin for shipment to Russia The Cylinder Gin Company is also shipping its Cylinder Gins to several parties in this State, and has orders for gins as far South as Texas. These gins possess so many advantages that their intro duction is uoquestiot ably only a matter of time. They gin equally well both the long and short staple cottons, and are said to be the only gins which turn out a perfect sample from the long staple grades of upland cotton. A Heal Sensation. Cqicago, oept. 6.?The Times Chat tanooga (Tenu ) special says : Several years ago Marsh T. Polk robbed the State Treasury of Tennessee of several hundred thousand dollars while serving as State Treasurer. He fied, but was subsequently arrested and returned to Nashville. In due time he was report ed to have sickened and died. His body was shipped from Nashville to Bolivar, Tenn., where be was buried. Now comes news that one Gamble a prominent citizen of Anniston, Ala., has just returned home from an extend ed visit in the City of Mexico, and while there he met Polk on the street and talked with him. He made further investigations and found Polk in busi ness in that city. The affair has creat ed no little excitement in this part of the State. Gamble was well acquainted with Polk while he was Treasurer of this State. c mm ii mm ' A Surprising Announcement. New York, September 8.?An ad vertise en t in a morning paper in which Florence Irwin, the actress, declares herself the wife of Ex-Senator Thomas F. Grady, has excited general interest here because of the personality of the groom, rather than of the bride. As late as last fall Grady was the pride of ! Tammany Hall, who gave him the soubriquet the 'silver tongued.' It I was he who fought Cleveland's nomina tion at Chicago in 1884,.and who.pro voked the historical scene of tumult when crusty Bragg, of Wisconsin, said that Democrats loved Cleveland for the enemies he had made, meaning Tam many. Grady and Burke Cockran, who has some skill as a talker, were then law partners with excellent prac tice for young men. They disagreed for some cause and each set up for him self last fall. Cockran was nominated by Tammany for Congress, but Grady wanted to run io another district, but failing to get the nomination set himself up a candidate. He drove a very live ly canvass and nearly secured the prize. Cockran was elected in his district. Grady was so much disgruntled that he bas since kept away from, the courts. It was reported among lawyers that the canvass had taken all his money. His appearance to-night refutes that assump tion, for he never looked better fed or dressed. He says he has been Miss Irwio's husband for three years. She has been constantly on the stage and will probably continue to appear. Maud S.?Bonner's Present to Murphy. Maud S. made another splendid performance on Saturday. Mr. Bon ner took Murphy up to his Tarrytown farm and gave the mare a fast quar ter, to see if she has as perfect a flight of speed as ever. The fast quarter of a mile, to harness this time, was to have been the second one from the start, but a boot a?id one of her hind shoes came off somehow and Murphy eased her up. Finding she was going all right, he let her come home the last quarter as she liked. Mr. Bonne* and his sons Iook ! ed at their watches twice, to b? sure, they read the figures right. She had made the mile in 2:17 and the last quarter in 30 seconds?a two minute gait. Murphy got a present the other day. Robert Bonner pre sented the faithful jockey' with the roan gelding Keene Jim, record 2:19, and added jokingly : 'I don;t care for horses that can't go a quarter bet ter than 33 seconds.' Murphy got up behind the horse which is valued at $6500, and sent him a quarter of a mile in 32 seconds. Keene Jim has been driven by Mj??feyin!^!.

Chaplain Hall Writes the Following B? marJcib!? Letter. From the Albany A". T., Expr?s*. For many years my wife had been the victim of nervous dyspepsia, of the chronic, distressing and apparently in curable type from which so many of her sex suffer, languish and die. It was al) the worse because the tendency to it was inherited. She had been u nder the systematic treatment of many of the best physicians in New York andBrook Iyn and elsewhere for twenty years with only temporary relief. In fact, there were few*, if any, kinds of food that did not distress her. so diseased, sensitive and torpid were all the organs of diges tion. The usual symptoms of dyspep sia, with its concomitant ailments, were all present?bad taste in the mouth, dull eyes, cold feet andha-nds, the sense of a load upon the stomach, tenderness on pressure, indigestion, giddiness, great weakness and prostration, and fu gitive pains in the sides, chest and back. I have often risen in the night and ad ministered stimulants merely for the sake of the slight and transient relief they gave. Intermittent malarial fever set in, complicating the case and making every symptom more pronounced and intense.? By this time the pneumo gastric nerves had become very seri ously involved, an<v she had chronic Gastritis, and also what I may be al lowed to call chronic intermittent ma laiial fever all at once. For the latter the physicians prescribed the good, old fashioned, sheet-anchor remedy, Quin ine gradually increasing the doses, until ?incredible as it may seem?she actu ally took thirty grains a day for davs in succession. This could not last. The effect of the quinine was, if possible, almost as bad as the two fold disease which was wearing away her strength and her life. Quinine poisoning was painfully7 evident, but the fever was there still Almost every day there came on the characteristic chill and racking headache, followed by the usual weakness and collapse. About this time I met socially my friend Mr. Norton, a member of the firm of Cbauncey Titus & Company, brokers, of Albany, who, on hearing from me these facts, said : u Why, I have been through almost the same thing, and have got over it. " M What cured you?" I asked eagerly. " Kas kine," he said, " try it for your wife." I had seen Kaskine advertised, but had no more fair h in it than I had in saw dust, for such a case as hers. Mrs. Hall had no higher opinion, yet on the strength of my friend's recommenda tion I got a bottle and began its use as directed. Now recall what I have already said as to her then condition, and then read what follows: Under the Kaskine treatment all the dyspeptic symptoms showed instant improvement, and the daily fever grew less and soon ceased altogether. Side by side these diseases vanished, as side by side they had tort ured their victim for. ten years?the dyspepsia alone having, as I have said, existed for twenty years. Her appetite improved from week to week until she could eat and digest the average food that any well person takes, without any suffering or inconvenience. With re newed assimilation of food came, of course, a steady increase in r?esh, until she now looks like her original self. She still takes Kaskine occasionally, but with no real need of it, for she is well. I consider this result a scientific miracle, and the " New Quinine " isen i titled to the credit of it, for from the time she began with Kaskine she used no other medicine whatever. If you think a recital of these facts calculated to do good you are w;elcome to make them public. (Rev.) JAS. Ii. HALL, Chaplain Albany, S. Y., Penitentiary. P. S.?Sometimes letters of this kind are published without authority, and in case any one is inclined to question nications addressedto me at the Peni tentiary. Jas. L. Hall.

This story is the latest and best produc tion of this gifted novelist, full of adven ture, romance and graphic description. Three Englishmen of wealth, and leisure, tiring of inaction, embark on a journey of adventure and discovery. They are ac companied by a Zulu ex-chief named TJm slopogaas, whose courage and prowess figure conspicuously in the narrative. Having heard rumors of a great white race, located somewhere among the pla teaus-of Central Africa, they ascend the Tana river, meet with many remarkable and thrilling experiences, and finally reach M?osis, a city of great architectural and artistic grandeur?the capital of the Zu-Vendi nation, ruled by the sister queens, Nyleptha and Sorais. The strangers excite much interest, nar rowly escape death by burning, and are finally advanced to positions of distinction ?subsequently espousing the cause of Nyleptha, against her sister Sorais, in a great revolt precipitated by the latter. The story abounds in thrilling situa tions, and will repay reading. NTLEPTIIA ATO SOKAIS, THE SISTER QUEENS. [ raSLOrOCAAS HOLDING THE STAIR. SUBSCRI BE NOW! And You will Secur e all the Chapters o?
