FISHING IN JUNE

A party of gentlemen from Hamburg projected
fishing excursion to the Edisto river few days
since Lines hooks bait &c, were duly provided
and packed, with reasonable allowance of LIQUIDS
to wet the bait, in a champagne basket. The
liquids were in square bottles. Square bottles
pack snugly and n champagne basket is precisely
the most convenient for their deposit Nothing
had been forgotten, and the party looked forward
with the most pleasurable emotions to the excite
ment of the excursion loads of fish, and good
time generally. Without delay, they entrusted
themselves to the care Of Jim Meredith, the pop
ular conductor on the South Carolina Railroad:
Especial charge was given the baggage master
with reference to the basket in which all their
hopes and future fshwere stored.
At the depot nearest their destination they
were bidden farewell with every wish for their
success. The precious basket was deposited be-
hind carriage in which the party had taken
passage to the river. The distance was short,
but they were none the less impatient, for the heat
of the day was approaching, and they longed to
prepare for fishing by testing the quality of their
stores. The river was reached and carefully the
basket was unlashed from the carriage, and
clean, grassy spot, shaded by o magnificent
tree, selected for the bvouac.
The basket was opened, when-no tackle was
there, no square bottles, none of theiE treasures
but the cold aud unnvting body of dead baby,
and negro baby at that! In their haste they
had taken the wrong basket; had seized, taken
and carried away basket IN transita for burial,
They had added to the grief of dsconsoate pa
rents, and instead Of staunchng had increased the
mourners' tears.
Slowly and sadly they drove back to the depot.
They despatched the basket in their possessi on to
Charleston, and took the first westward train;
first ascertaining that it not Mereiiths train.
Unon their return to HAMBURG tbey told not the
tale, but quietly separated, each to his separate
quarters Nevertheless the story leaked out, and
has been told in Charleston. Charleston Mercury.

Garibadt's Wife.

Some of the most interesting passs-
ges in Garibaldi'A life relate to his wife.
He married a lady OF extraordinary
qualities, native Of one of the States
ofSouth America. She was trained to
horsemanship and the most athletic
habits prevail among the females Of
those countries. Though, like him,
noble hearted, affectionate, and disin-
terested, she also possessed a similar de-
gree Of personal courage and fortitude
which have seldom been displayed, land
still more rarely depicted, by any au-
thentic pen. After her marriage, she
accompanied him in his battles, by sea
and land ; and, although usually un-
armed. and keeping at his SIDE only as
his companion, she sometimes aided in
his most desperate conflicts, BY deal
ing out powder loading guns, and even
firing them at the enemy. The suffer-
ings which she endured among the
mountains, in times of adversely and
seasons of tempcsts, were severe and
almost incredible. The short account
OF her escape from a Brazilian guard
after capture in an engagement, and
her journey OF several days and nights,
on horseback and alone, through wild
forests, swimming swollen torrents, by
holding to the name or tail of her
horse, is exceeded only by the sad mar.
rative Of her death-bed, in 1s49, on
the banks of the Po, when, after re-
solntely accompanying Garibaldi on
his retreat from Rome, she landed
with him, in one of the boats, in which
he was seeking to reach Venice, then
the only place in Italy which held out
against the enemy.-N.Y. Courier and

the logic Of Black Republicauism.

Iowa VIGILANCE CoMMIrTEE.-On
Tuesday the 7th inst, says the Iowa
Democrat, the Vigilance Committee at
Lancaster, Keokuk county, forcibly
entered the Jail, smashing in the doors
and took therefrom a man and woman
father and dsughter,) named Perry
Carpenter and Lucretia Carpenter,who
had been sent there three months fer
lewdness, also Burrows and Huffman.
The woman was placed in a buggy
and man put there to drive, and take
care of her the men were placed on
horseback and there tied, and the par
ty started for Martins Ferry. A cor
respondent Of the Democrat says that
both Carpenter and his daughter were
severely whipped, and warned never
to appear in the county again. Bur
rows and Huffman were let off, at that
time, but subse quently Burrows was
seen lurking about, when the Com
mittee arrested him, and on Wednes-
day evening, the 9Th instant, he I'm
derwent an examination. Testimony
was introduced, showing his general
bad character, his numerous depreda-
tons, and his completely with the
band Of scoundrels that infest that re-
gion. Ten citizens of the NEST res
pectable portion of Keokuk county,
were chosen to decide his fate. The
committee retired, and after protract-
ed absence, returned and reported him
guilty, adjudgiug his punishment to
be 25 lsshes, and to leave the county
in "a hours.
The whipping was administered
with horse whip, and he was then
told to leave the county instanter.
The meeting also gave notice to
Clark to arrange his affairs and leave
the county before the first of Septem-
