initiating to announce the shameful sur
render of Fort Gaines at half-past nine

was garrisoned by 600 men. He last
night communicated with the enemy's
aeet by flag of truce. without the sanction
of Gen. Page, who inquired by signal
wha, his purpose was, but received no
reply. During the night General Page
visited the Fort and found that Anderson
was OH board the Yankee feet, arranging
terms of capitalization. He left peremp-
tory orders for Anderson not to surren-
der, and relieved him of command. Fort
Morgan was signalled this morning, but
no answer was received except the hoist
ing of the Yankee flag over the ramparts
of Fort Gaines.

THE LOST HUNTERS
A Tale OF Virginia, in 1890,
Written for the Pisneer.
BY oTHo J. POWELL.

Upon cold, windy evening in the month O
January, in the winter of 182-- as the cherries
sun was slowly sinking below the summit of tn
snow capped mountains, and the lengthenin!
shadows upon the lone and dreary plains of tn
frontier, or settlement gave indications of tn
approaching night Nothing broke the silence
save the bowling and moaning of the tempest
eous winds, as they blew perfect hurricane
i around the crags and rocks of the barren hills
that lay in close proximity to the group Of log
huts that constituted the settlement. In the
Western horizon a dark and gloomy looking
cloud is slowly rising, and anon the cold
wintry sky is covered with lowering clouds
and from their dark and gloomy appearance
give indications of terrible snow-storn of sc
| frequent occurrence in that section, ere the ris
ing of the morrow's sun.
| From one of these human habitetions, emerges
man, clad in a great fur coat and cap, and
muffled up in a huge woolen neck,cloth, that
almost enveloped his entire face, with the ex
cept;on of space just large enough for him to
see the way he was going, and for his large to-
bacco pipe, which protruded from tie shield or
covering that he wore over his face. He was
about five feet ten inches tall, simetricslly built,
and from appearance, generally, and the elastic
manner in which he strobe from his door into
the cold, clustering winter gale, could not have
been above thiry five years of age. His hair was
long, and hung in matted curis upon his Draw
ny shoulders. From casual observation, you
would perceive that he was q man of sterling
habits, and that determination of purpose wa, u
predominant feature in his character He
would brave any danger, caring not whether it
be man or beast that stood in his way. And he
would undergo anything that he might accom-
plish the designs he had in contemplation n
Though he was young, yet he had endured all
privations and hardship incident to those who
first settled the frontiers of that State. When
he was short distance from his hut, he was &C
costed by stalwart man, who hurriedly came
forth from one of the huts, and in loud tones
exclaimed

AN AUTUMN SONG.
nY oTHo ]. POWELL.

The bright summer is past and drear autumn is here
And the rose lies witheredthe forest looks drear
And the grass in the meadow that looked green
oer the field is now scatefed-not vestsge is seen,
The oak and the willow that bloomed fresh and fair
But short time ago, naked and scar
For the cold wind of autumn, have scattered around,
Their green summer foliage, all over the ground.
The Of the turtle, is now silent and still,
And the lark in the morning, fits not o'er the hill
As she did in the simmer, when watching alone,
Her nest on the hillside, where the shone
Tho brook in the valley, that went ripping along,
Through the sweet scented pasture has ceasd its old song
For the leaves of the forest have choked up its way
And pools dark and filthy, for time it must play.
The farmer hastens, his ripe crops to secure,
Ere the cold fosts of autumn have covered them oer;
The that he cultured and watched with such care
With joy he now gathers, in the bright golden
The in the orchard that bl6omed in the spring,
Full of fruit rich and lucious their branthes cling
The husbandman pucks them-he stores them away,
For use in drear winter, when cold is the day.
The grapes hang in clusters, upon the vine clad hill,
The purple fruit is gathered, and carried to mill,
From which rich juice taken by presses firm and strong
To fill with wine the goblet thro winter drear and long
The slanting rays at sunsetthe short and dismal day,
Tell us thatr rosy summer has surely past away.
We marked her tiny footsteps ard wished her back again
Instead ofeloudy autumn with chilly winds and rain.
But summer days endedwe hear the g'rng sigh;
We view the blighted flowers, that all around lie
For autumn is upon us-the season of the year,
When summers fragrant flowers wtherd mass appear
We hear the bleak winds moaning thro every naked tree
And o'er the plain valley hoar fross eject see;
But the winds of autumn and SHOWS of winter drear,
viii vanish in the sunlight, when days Of spring appear
