tn. American Consu7 at Hapana

A meeting Of "the lovers of Republic an free
dom, and the friends Of oppressed Cuba took
place in Augusta, Ga. on Thursday night last,
at which appropriate resolutions were passed, and
one, inappropriate in its tone and temper, was
voted down. This resolution, which we have
characterized as inappropriate, charged Mr. owen
the American Consul at Havana, with shameful
indifference to the fate of his countrymen, who
were sentenced and executed, the resolution as
serted, without the form of trial. AS soon as the
res olution was read, it was suggested that it might
SAVIOR of injustice to condemn an individual before
he had been allowed all opportunity to be heard in
his own defence; and the suggestion meeting with
favour, the resolution was promptly voted down
We have cited this instance, merely for the
purpose of showing the spirit of justice and mo-
deration which actuaes the good people of Au
gusta. The letters from Havana, it must be con-
fessed place the American Consul in an unenvia'
BILE position; out let US await his explanation OF
the line of conduct he thought proper to pursue
on the occasion of the execution OF the American
citizens, before we publicly condemn him. The
vilest malefactor possesses the right to be heard
before he shall be condemned surely, then, a like
privilege might be safely extended to high pub
lie functonary, who has hitherto faithfully dis
charged his duty. We may be permitted to sug.
gest then, that the people in some portions of the
Union, have been too swift in their condemnation
of Mr.. Ovens conduct. "Strike, but hear" was
maxim belonging perhaps TO sterner age
than the present; but its justice none can deny.
Let us hear him, then; if he shall fail to make his
justification full and complete, then, and not till
then, let public opprobrum be heaped upon him

CHATTER III.-THE PIo-NIc PARTY.
Annie Bell consented to go and, as old John
had predicted, as soon as they heard it not one
of the "sugars" would stay behind. Annie
Bell was the gentlest little "blonde" in the
"garden of Virginia" Such deep, deep, deep
blue eyes you never saw such sunny tresses
never danced on the wanton breeze as showered
about her snowy shoulders. Such beautiful
arms-so round and full, yet prettily proper
toned; such "gimpie waist" and such a
"milky ham" with which she spread out her
bright green riding habit, that cruelty hid one
of the prettiest, lightest feet that ever tripped
the heather around Moorfeld. All the hamlet
was out admiring; and many a happy tear
trembled in the eyes of doting parents as they
beheld their sons or daughters and listened to
the whispered admiration Of their neighbors
The good old women agreed that " there worn't
q handsomer Ind than Ned Berry in the State
O. Virginia" "Just look" they would say,
chow he sets his horse so straight and easy !;
an what sweet material curl his hair has took,
an his heavenly whiskers' as the gals calls
'em; and his fine teeth--when he smiles some
times. He looks so strong, an he's got eye
like eagle. think poor Annie stands slim

would" and this was the general female opin-
ion of Moorfeld Hamlet. There were others,
too, in the party that came in for their share of
the praise and comment Harry Lee, with
Efie Bradley nestled up close to him, in the
buggy, Effie looking "dreadful skeered," as the
host of the White House says, but very pretty;
her black eyes directed confdingly towards
Harry, who was whispering her something
probably trying to overcome her fear of the
fortune-teller of the Golding Gorge, whom all
the countryside pronounced a witch. Whatever
it was he was saying, Harry's eyes were
cast down, and he was blushipg furiously !;
perhaps he felt folks we're looking at him-or,
maybe, just then, he overheard the remark one
of the patriarchs of the hamlet made-and an
arch patriarch he was, always joking the young
folks that she did think that young dog,
Harry Lee, tried to get the narrowest buggy in
the hamlet, feered he couldn't git close enough
to pretty little Efie Dradleyp Whether the
charge was true or not we don't know but
the buggy ,cas uncommonly narrow, and the old
mans joke told. as o half suppressed laugh
attested. Old John came out of the White
House-which was at the lower end of the vii
lage-jumped in his long, sky-blue wagon, with

With the true wife husbands faults should
be sacred. A woman forgets what is due to
herself when she condescends to that refuge of
yeakness-a female oonfdante. A wife's bosom
should be the tomb of her husbands failings,
and his character far more valuable in her esti-
nation than his life. If this be not the case,
she polutes her marriage vow.
