when to-morrow's little bridesmaid
appeared at the door, in a white frock,
and with long white mists floating
backward from her pretty curls.
How very nice, Conny!' L said,
for she stood quite still to receive
compliments; very pretty, indeed,
dear"

with Miss F~lutters, and telling my

sight other sister, down on the hearth

cry of pain that made me feel a
wicked brute. and completely upset
poor Madeleine.
Hush, hush, darling" she said;
" don't cry so, COMFY. l shall soon
be back, and then you're coming to
stay with me, you know. and papa,
and Splutters, and ALL"
But COMFY had lost all her sense.
She gave herself a little shake, and
the frock and the mists were much
injured.
COMFY" L said, taking her from
her sisters arms, white as the veil
that now hung limp around her. wet
with her tears, no longer an emblem
of to-morrow's joy, listen to me.
You shall keep Madeleine. I'll not
take her from you"

Poor little Conny!" But Conny
herself looked up.

with her veil.

"Say Yes" she whispered. So

sOMEBODY'LL COME TONIGHT.

-
1 must bind my hair with the mystic
And gem it with buds of white.
And drive this blush from my burning
brow
For s~omebody'u come tonight.
And while his eye shall discern a grace
In the braid and the folded flower,
He must not ind in my tell-tale face
The spell OF his wondrous power.
/ must don the robe that he fondly calls
A cloud of enhancing light,
And sit where the mellOwing moonlight
falls,
For somebody'u come tonight;
And while the robes and the place shall
seem
Rut the verie,t freak of chance,
nris sWeeter to know that his eye will beam
With a tender, happier glance.
Twas thus sang when the years were few
That lay on my giFlish head, y f
And all the flowers that in fancy grew
Were tied with a golden thread; .
And somebody came, and the whispers
L cannot repeat them quite;
But ] know my soul went up in prayer,
And somebody's here tonight.
/ blush no more at the whispered VOW, d
Nor Sigh in the soft moonlight;
My robe has o tint of amber now, 1851 p

And the locks that We'd with the glossy
Have passed to the silver gray;

The Richmond correspondent of
the New York Tribune draws the
following pen-picture of the great
master-spirit over the Virginia ne
groes, Hunnicutt
"His opinions upon all subjects
are of the widest extravaganza, and
evince more of hatred to the white
race than ever could be looked for in
the negro. He steadfastly opposed
the immigration of whites into Vir-
ginia, fearing, as he himself ac-
knowledges, they viii supplant his
sable followers. His opposition
goes 20 the extent Of denouncing the
introduction Of whites, though Re
publicans, as they will; he says, be
eventually contaminated and made
worse rebels than now exist. In a
word. he would have no white poo
ME at all. 4 = = This man
Hunnicutt is an ulcer that has
gnawed to the very vitals Of the
party hereabOuts whose stencil has
drawn around him the carrion birds.
and driven from his fold all birds OF
better piumage-
The control which this creature
has over the blacks is shown by the
fact that he received 516S negro
votes for delegate to the C0nven-
ton. while only % negroes voted
against him He received but A.
white votes.

CAPTAIN CULVER KILLED.-lt is
reported that Capt. Culver and his
Orderly were killed near Spring
field last week. The circumstances
so far as we can learn, are about as
follows. A Mr.. Stewart or Parker,
living about two miles and half
from Springfield, had incurred the
displeasure Of Capt. Culvcrt, by re-
fusing to appear before him when
ordered. Culver took his Orderly
and went after him, found him on
the prairie hunting Il beef, told him
to consider himself arrested and TO
give up his gun-a double barreled
shot gun-Stcwar refused, stating
that he would not give it up till he
reached home. On arriving at the
house, Stewart wet in and told
Culver to remain out. Culver Or
dcrcd his Orderly to fire on him,
which he did missing Stewart and
hitting his wife in the head, Culver
Immediately fired also, wounding
Stewart in the shoulder. The Or
derby repeated his fire, wounding
Stewart in the other shoulder
About this time Stewart fired at
Culver killing him instantly. He
then fired at the Orderly who ran
off some hundred and fifty yards and
fell dead. One report has it that
Mrs. Stewart and her husband both
are dead. Another report states
that Mrs. Stewart will recover but
that Stewart is MORALLY wounded.
Rumor says that upon these facts
the loyal leaguers are collecting to-
gether in large numbers on the
Navasota above Springfield, and in
tend kicking up an excitement. If
we get more authentic information
before going to press we will give
il to the public.
Since writing the above we learn
that every thing went off with but
little excitement. That Culver and
his Orderly were buried by the SOL
diers, who expressed regret at the
death ofthe Orderly but cared moth
ing for Culver, as they detested him.
That an officer came down from
Waco and appeared, after invcstiga-
ton, to justify the killing, and or
dered the negroes and sneaking
white men who had attempted to
get up an excitement to disperse.
The reports about Culver's ad-
ministration of the Bureau at Cot
ton Gin, have been so thoroughly
circulated that no one will be sur
prised at his death. The only won
der is that he was suffered to live so
long. Nothing but the most dcvot-
ed submission caused the people to
endure him. His total want of sense
was only equaled by his various
acts of tyranny. He had negroes
fighting negroes, and negroes threa-
tcning to destroy the property of
Freestone county. Had he followed
in he footsteps of his predecessor,
1t. John Williamson, or initiated
the example of the officers at Cen
trevile, he might have been q ben
