The INDIAN SUMMER. follow
ing lines, by Mrs. Kenerson, will be
all the more appreciated from the
fact that we have just passed that
most delightful season of the year:
'Tis the saddest- the sweetest,
"Tis the loveliest of the year;
The time of summers last sad smile,
Ere she's laid upon her bier.
Methought she had departed,
With nil her radiance wild;
Gone, stranger lands to gladden.
With her balmy airs and mild
But no! ah, still she tarrieth,
She smileth once again;
And from the forests echoeth
A low, sad. mournful strain.
Sweet songs of rich, glad melody,
Hath she been singing long;
And now, with strangely warning
She chants her own death-song.
Gray hill, and bleak, wild mountain,
Woodland, and glen and vale:
Resoundeth with the requiem,
The solemn, dirge-like wall;
All gorgeous in her winding sheet,
Green, golden-hued and red;
O'erwhich shadowy dimness reigns,
AS DER the features Of the dead.
Her voice like the seer's, now sound
In her sorrowful parting lay;
And methinks it loudly speaketh
OF the coming of decay.
1t tells that the lovely fadeth,
That the beautiful lasts not long:
Such to me the burden seemeth,
OF the dying summers song.
FHLIBUsTERlNG FOR CUBA. ar-
ticle in the New York Sunday Me,cs,
states that a grand scheme is on foot
In that city, among band of Ameri-
cans, for the capture and conquest of
the Queen Of the Antilles. Accord
ing to this report, $500 men of pluck
and spirit are all that are required to
accomplish this undertaking. These
acquisitive gentlemen, however,
should remember that there are seve-
raj little obstacles in the way of their
success. Primarily, our Government
is in most harmonious relations with
the new Spanish Government and
people, and the President would feel
it incumbent upon him to suppress
all such unlawful raids upon friend
ly power In addition to that, the
job would be found difficult Jne, as
one against the Spanish forces them
selves, especially as the new provi-
sional government at Madrid is send
ing out new armaments to keep the
faithful isle in order.

DEAR SIR: Tho want of pure Wines and
Liquors, for medicinal purposes, has been
long felt by tho profession, and thousands
or lives have been sacrificed by the use of
adulterated articles. Delirium tremens.
and other diseases of the brain and nerves,
80 rife in this country, are very rare in
Europe; owing, in a great degree, to the
difference in the purity OF the spirits sold.
ported and sold by you, including your
Gin. which you sell under the name of Aro-
matio Schiedam Schnapps, which we con-
slider justly entitled to the high reputation
1t has acquired i'll this country; and, from
your long experience as foreign impor-
ter, your Bottled Wines and Liquors
should meet with the same demand.
We wonld recommend You to appoint
some of the respectable apothecaries in
different parts Of the city as agents for the
sale OF your Brandies and Wines, where
the profession can obtain the same when
needed for medicinal purposes.
Wishing you success in your new enter
prise, we remain your obedient servants.

State Central Club at this place on
the goth of January, 1869, at 7 P. NJ.
ow-citizens, We address you in
the spirit of hope and faith. God in
His providence has seen fit to deny
to us the triumph which we deemed
essential to the welfare of the State.
Ii we cannot win, let us seek to de-
serve success. To the manhood of
the State do We appeal. Let the
Democratic party of South Carolina
remain g power and an influence in
the State. Keep your ranks undi-
vlded' Adhere to your political prin-
ciip!es until better ones invite you to
their adoption. From failure gather
wisdom; out of defeat get patience and
resolution. Preserving your fidelity
to the eclectic principles of yonr
party, go, bravely and earnestly to
work in the field of material develop
ment. Thus building up the State
upon the basis of labor, and sur
rounding our political creeds with
the solid muniments of wealth. in
telligence and virtue, we will redeem
our broken fortunes, heal our bleed
ing wounds, and ere long secure the
peaceful triumph of those wise and
virtuous elements essential to the dig
nifty of the State and the prosperity
of the people.
By order of the Central Club of the
Democratic party of South Carolina.
