The APPRENTICE BoY.-In 1S4j we were at a
Fourth of July celebration in Pennsylvania at
which Gen. Sam. Houston delivered the grafton.
At the close he told story of a carpenters ap-
prentice whose masters cruelty had driven him
away to the west, leaving his old mother alone
and sorrowing for her lost son. The orator poin-
ted out the house where bis master lived and
dwelt on the subject till the whole audience of
5000 people became interested. Then turning
to stranger, who sat on the stand, and raising
his voice to the highest pitch, he exclaimed :
" Here is the boy whom the damned cruelty of a
master drove from his mothers house," and
begged leave to introduce Mr.. Kaufman mem
Der of Congress from Texas - Sure enough, it
was Kaufman, the apprentice boy, and this was
his first visit TO his native place in thirty years
For moment or two all was still, and then arose
such shout as never before was heard in Cum
berland. Ladies sprang from their seats and
waved their handkerchief, and the speaker could
could not be heard for several minutes And the
old hoary beaded carpenter, who drove the boy
away, was in the crowd
We were but boy, then, but would have given
everything in this wide world for KaufInans tr-
umph for that one hour. The poor, despiscd
beaten, runaway boy, one Of the American Con-

AND o'er the green and slOping hill
My sweet-yoiced sisters strayng.
Wlth those dear loved ones, hand in hand,

A wreath OF flowers and grasses

Upon its violet banks reclining
Or climb at tgilight's hush, the hin
To watch the SUMS declining.
Beside my vine-clad easement set

Or watch the western hills where yet

The vision yanished-I awake,
To pass the night in weeping.

'STEAMBoATlNG' AND 'SNIPING,'-We suppose
nearly every one has learned practically, that

Of the sort in the country, but they make him be

"LoDEs" AND "LEADs. "-'' Lodes" has become
a common word in California. Two years ago it
was never heard except from some pedantic and
impractical geologist The word originated in
the Cornwall tin mines it is Synonymous with
"vein." Lodes containing metallic ores, only,
are said to be alive;" those including lapideous
Or rocky substances, are called "dead" lodes.
The word lead, is a corruption of lode, aud was
introduced in the gold regions by Galena lead
miners, and was soon generally adopted. "Struck
a lead" was used to express the idea that a miner
had found deposit of gold; or if any one was
very successful in OTHER business, by figure of
speech it vas said that he had struck lead"
We think the word "yein" preferable to either of
the terms Veins contain the life-prnciple Of
the human body, as lodes contain the metallic
motive power of the world.

eighty miles with but little rest or sleep, and
at one time been more than sixteen hours in the
saddle, with only hope of meeting the enemy, not
murmur was heard, or the slightest complaint
When the enemys camp was seen, and the cheer
heard along the ranks-the signal of the
charge-the spirit activity, gallantry, and courage
displayed by you could but be the admiration of the
most critical veteran, as it was of your officers
You have struck the enemy of the State over which
you sentinels a blow with an iron hand-a blow
which they will not soon forgct-and the most bril-
liant and decisive victory has been achieved over
them that has been recorded for years. To you
this should be lasting pride. After the battle

sstance and care the kindness of heart that promp
ted and the gentlenesS of hand that untiringy adj
minisered to their necessities less the traits
of the true soldier than those that led to the vic
tory.

fag and killed your enemies in the cause of hu-
manity, the proud consciousness Of having done
your duty cheeruly and we'll will be to you, during
your lives, memory that will give you pleasure

no disappearing recollection of it hereafter.

notion called to the chair, and L. j. Merritt re-

feelings of the meeting as to the Importance of the
completion of the works on the Cape Fear and Deep
rivers in order to to the State the vast ad
vantage of outlet for the transportation and de-
velopment of the mineral wealth of the Deep river
country, and to take such steps as the meeting
might think proper to bring to the attention of the
Legislature-not only the importance, but the ne
cessity of an early completion of this great State
work, that they may be induced by wise and liberal
action, to allow North Cardinals greatest wealth to
lie no longer undeveloped.
Mr.. Waddell made some remarks suitable to the

ResOlred LIST, That the permanent construction of
the works now in progress upon the Cape Fear and
Deep rivers and the removal of distractions to the

ceve direct and efficient aid from the State treasury.
Resolved I'd, That the people of Chatham county,
without distinction of party regard the same as Of
greater interest to them than any present political
question or controversy, and they expect and res
pectfuly request their representatives in the Cen
eral Assembly to call the attention of the Legsla-
ture to the subject and entreat their favorable action
thereon.
ResolUed Sd, That committee of ten be appoint
ed by the Chairman of this meeting to draft me-
mortal to be presented to the Legislature expressive
of the sentiments of this meeting, and of the i'm
portance of the subject not only to us but to North
Carolina.
In pursuance of the third resolution, the Chair

mittee to draft said memorial viz: Hon. Hugh Wad-
dell, B. j. Howe, L. j. Merritt, John Manning, Jr.,
