Columbia had a population of 10000 souls
when captured-mostly women, children and Re-
groes The scenes that occurred in that doomed
city are indescribable, almost everything afro
cious, vile and satanic was pcrpetrated. The
accumulation of riches had made Columbia a
centre of wealth. Young women Of family were
sent in numbers from other threatened sections
TO city deemed secure But alas! almost in one
instant, beautiful Columbia, With her temples
and palaces, her shrineS of art and industry, "
her seats Of learning, her beauty, Vealtk aud re-
6nement, is now laid in ashes. But with her
unspllied robes she can once more raise her
splendid portals.
We learn th4t there was enough food in Co.
iumbia to have suficed that city five years. About
twelve hundred watches we're stolen.

Beautiful

The following waif, a1Oat on the " sea Of
reading, - we clip from an exchange. We do
not know its paternity, but it contains some
wholesome truths beautifully set forth
Men seldom think of the great event Of death
until the shadows fall across their own path,
hiding forever from their eyes the traces of the
loved ones whose living smile was the sunlight
OF their existence. Death is the great antago-
mist or life, and cold thoughts of the tomb are the
skeleton of all feasts. We do not want TO go
through the dark valley, although its passage
may lead to paradise and. with Charles Lamb,
we do not want to lie down in the muddy grave,
even with kings and princes for bed-fellows. But
the fiat of nature is inexOrable.
There is no appeal or relief from the great law
which dOOms us to dust We flourish and we
fade as the leaves Of the forest, and the flower
that blossoms and withers in a day has not IL
Trailer hold upon life than the Inightiest monarch
that ever shook the earth with his footsteps.
Generations of men appear and vanish as grass,
and the countless multitude that thrOngs the
world to-day, will tomorrow disappear as the
footsteps on the shore.
In the beautiful drama Of - Ion. " the instinct
Of Immortality. So eloquently uttered by the
every thoughtful soul. When about to yield his
Clemanthe asks If they shall not meet again. 10
which ne replies IL have asked the dreadful
question OF the hills that look eternal, of the
streams that flow forever, Of the stars, among
whose fields of azure my raised spirit hath
walked in glory. All were dumb. But while |
gaze upon thy living face, | feel there is some
thing in the love that mantles through its beauty
that cannot wholly perish. We shall meet
again, Clemanthe."
