A STOIIY OF LOWllFB'S LAKE.
Not lonp ago did we rdiearae,
In homely, unpretending verse,
How Andrew Hunter foil’d the foe.
And won that noble prize, Jled Doe.
And now we will some notice take
Of him, who rendered Lan der’s Lake
An honored and a wacred Nj)Ot,
Which niuet not, cannot 1)0 torgot:
Ae tongas that tall Blutf tdiallstand,
Will Gavin Witherepoon command
The admiration and applause
Of those who love their country’s cause.
When British troops, by Tories led,
Plunder'd the living and the dead,
Wherever richest booty lay.
Thither they would wend their way.
Our hero was so rich in swine,
Also in cattle, large and fine.
That they resolved to seize them all,
And that their owner, too, should fall.
A band were sent to do the deed,
And take whatever they might need ;
But Captain Brown was wide awake;
He loaded up Ilia gun,
And then pursued the loving pair;
He overtook ’em when they got al>out
halt w ay to the Parson’s, and then Reu
ben and Phrebe started off upon the ran.
Old Brown then took a deadlv aim
Towards young Reuben's head,
But. oil! it was a bleeding shame,
He made a mistake and shot bus only
dauifhter, and had the unspeakable an
guish of seeing her drop right down stone
dead.
The anguish filled young Reuben’sheart,
And rengeanrc crazed his brain;
He drew an awful jack-knife out,
And plunged into old Brown about fifty
or sixty times, no that its very doubtful
about his ever coiuing too again.'
The briny drops from Reuben’s eyes
In torrents poured down ;
He yielded up the ghost and died.
And in this melancholy and heart
rending manner terminates the history of
Reuben and Phoeebe, and likewise old
Captain Brown.
THE END.
'"A
m
the “Cutest” Yankee Trick Out.
A Connecticut broom pedlar—a shrewd
ing foi the reins, “ I am inside out .on
my horse, or face behind, I don’t know
which—something wrong, anyhow.”
“ So you are,” exclaimed one of the
wags, “just get off, doctor, and we
w ill put you on right.”
“ (let oft'!” hrccuped the doctor,
“no y°u don’t. Just turn the horse
around, and it w ill all come right—you
must lie drunk.”
Maxims for Farmers.—One acre
well cultivated will produce more than
two only scratched at, and with far
lesa trouble. What is worth doing at
all. is worth doing well.
Never sow your grain until the
ground is well prepared, just because
yonr neighbor has commenced sowing
his. Prepare s our land well, and the
battle is half won.
When yon make a fence, make a
good one. It may cost more at first,
hut will cost less in the end.
Never plow in wet w eather, if you i
I can avoid it. Besides doing injury to
the crop, it impoverishes the soil. It |
will not rain always.
CANDIDATES.
FOR SHERIFF.
Editor Darlington Flag: Plea«e
announce Maj. WILLIAM H. WINGATE
as a Candidate for SHERIFF, of Darling
ton District, and oblige the
Voters of Mt. Elon.
Mr. Editor: Please announce HAR
DY M. PARROTT as a candidate for
Sheriff of Darlington District, at the en
suing election, and oblige
Many Voters.
The friends of VVM. R. HUN
TER beg leave to announce him ae a
candidate for Sheriff of Darlington dis
trict, at the ensuing election.
They sought him long with skill and care, I ^ fro(n OV{>r nmong th , gtea dy ha
But could not find him, far or near;
Then scoured the swamps, and e’en the
Drew up and pounded all his hogs;
The order was, that they should die
Next day, the rations to supply.
That night the tidings reached his ear,
(Sail tidings, too, they were to hear)
My beeves the enemy have fed,
And now my hogs will soon be dead.
But this, lie said, shall never be,
For I will die, or set them free;
When he had well surveyed the ground,
He found the guards so thick around,
That death appeared in every place
To stare directly in his face.
The only hope tldlt he could find
Was in the darkness and the wind—
’Twas hard to sec, and would they hear
The sound of any little stir?
And then, as Aligator goes,
He softly crept between his foes,
Till all the guards were passed, and then
He stood and walked as other men.
He made a gap in every pound.
Facing the swamp—their native ground—
Then to the other side we went,
And, stooping down, as hogs are bent,
To give them all a sudden fright,
He cried out “boo!” with all his might.
From pen to pen the panic flew,
And every hog responded, boo!
Then, through thcgaps,and on they went,
As though they were by demons sent.
The hogs are gone!” a soldier ciied ;
“Head’em!” another quick replied.
The sleepers, now aroused, began
To run and halloo, to a man;
But all their cries and running failed,
For Witherspoon at last prevailed.
He followed on, still crying boo!
Till all the baud he had passed through;
(A hundred soldieas saw him go,
But took him for a hog, yon know;)
He drove them long, through swamp and
lake,
And hid them in a great cane-brake—
A lovely and secluded spot.
Where all their skill could find them not.
The enemy would not essay
To search the swamp, tilt break of day;
For who could tell wbnt dangers lay
Along that dark and dismal way.
As long as they could there remain,
They sought the hogs, but sought in vain;
And their descendants still are found,
Rooting on that same swampy ground.
His son possesses still the land
Where brave old Gavitt used to stand;
And may that patriotic fire—
That courage which we all admire—
Pervade the hearts of all his race.
And shine as bright in every case.

A PATHETIC V ALL AD—DY K. K. BL1FKIKS.
In Manchester a maiden dwelt.
Her name was Phoebe Brown ;
Her cheeks were red, her hair was black,
And she was considered by good judg
es, to be by all odds the best looking girl
in town.
Her age was nearly seventeen ;
Her eyes were sparkling bright—
A very lovely girl she was,
And for a year and a half there had
been a young man pay ing attention to her,
name of Reuben Wright.

ever so small a portion of it; hut,
when lie wanted the cash and nothing

Epping’s Compound Fluid
Extract of SamapanUa and Queen’t
Delight.
Recommended by the editors of the
Southern Journal of Medicine and Phar
macy, and prescrilied and recommended
by most all respectable physicians of
Charleston and the surrounding country.
This preparation (bv adding Queen’s
Delight, &.C., to the Sarsaparilla) com
bines iu a more perfect degree than any
known remedy, tonic and alterative pow
ers: and is highly recommended hy emi
nent physicians. It is prepared in con
sequence of the recommendation given
hy Dr. H. R. Frost, Professor of Materia
Medica, in the College of Charleston, S.
C., iu his work on Materia Medica, and
concentrated hy a process of the subscri
ber’s, render it more convenient for ad
ministration, and with the exception of
the addition of mercury, which may be
at all times added when necessary.
As a general purifier of the blood, and
an eradicator of all obstinate diseases,
this preparation will undoubtedly take
the precedence of all other remedies. It
gently operates upon and regulates the
bowels, restores to the blood its wonted
purity, gives tone to the stomach, and
promotes digestion.
It is the best remedy known for scrofu
lous affections, sores, and breaking out
in young children, and is safe and effica
cious in removing entirely every trace of
hereditary diseases from the system in
the tenderest infant; in fact in all cuta
neous affections it is invaluable.
It is highly recommended for all disea
ses of the skin, chronic as well as recent.
Then' are few cases of chronic and
painful Rheumatism that will not yield
to the influence of Sarsaparilla and
Queen's Delight, if duly persevered, es
pecially if taken in conjunction with
Hvdr. of Potash.

There was an idea there, as the sequel

The merchant hesitated a moment,
hut finally concluded the chance a good
one. He should he getting half the
brooms for something that would not
sell so readily; as for cost price, it was
an easy gammon in regard to it. The
bargain was struck, the brooms brought
in, and the cash for half of them was
paid over.
“ Now, what will you have for the
remainder of yonr bill!” asked the
merchant.
The pedlar scratched his head again,
and this time more vigorously. He
walked the floor, whistled, drummed

“ You Providence fellers are ente,
