WITH THE TIDE.
BY IDA c. G..

Days of mystical glory.
Unrivalled in song or story,
Caught in the whirlpool of time
Ebbing out in a strange sweet chime
The Unborn spirit of rhyme
And deeds of tradition hoary.
Weaving fanciful tune
That fadeth all too soon;
As the the waves that wash the shore
Hush their murmur never;
Yet sad their unknown lore
Now, as in sunny June.
In the window shadow sitting,
With brown eyes never fitting
From the dark and sandy beach,
Just within her Visions reach,
Watching there at rise of sun:
Still watching when the day is done.
Beneath bright suns haunting ray,
She watched the vessel sail away
To distant, far-famed lands;
Her heart was gone-upon her hand
Sparkled the diamond fair and grand,
Telling in silent jubilee
His love is all the world to me-"
Time goes by wings,-th years flew OH
The days had come, the summer S gone,
And still no loved one came
To feed the burning passion flame
Still glowing in her heart.
They told her in another land,
He captive held heart and hand,
And graced old Fashions mart.
She listened to Loves second tale
Borne on the misty autumn gale,
And hid her heart within the fold
OF diamonds rare, and lustrous gold
Sadness so deep, but never told
Crushed i'll her marble palace high,
Reared almost up to touch the sky.
Naughty and cold her heart had grown,
For wealth and glory she lived alone,
Yet as oft she watched an outward bound
ship
It's PROV in the foamy waters dip,
The day came back when lip to lip
Her heart met his in sad farewell,
But she murmured ''he's falser than
tongue can tell.
September's sun with yellow heat
Fell burning where the waves had beat
With restless motion upon the shore,
With music like unto the days of yore;
When a tiny speck in the clouds she saw
Moving and nearing the pleasant land
Quietly, swiftly as by law -
Then screening her brown eyes by her
hand
She saw it strike the pebbled sand,
And heard glad shout cleave the air.
And saw noble manly form
With locks of silyered raven hair,
And heart with love and passion warm,
She held her breath in silent dread.
The crimson from her soft cheeks fled,
Low at her feet he knelt:
s. No welcome for the leal and true?
Speak, darling speak, it is my due.
Back through the years I've come for you
Loving as when | went
" No answer still? my love oh, why
No answer to my pleading cry?
Dead? Why have l lived for this?
To gain life devoid of bliss?
To other lands to roam, and then
No lips to welcome me again p
A funeral train-all mourners great
Pail bearers clothed in robes Of state,
The form they love, more fair in death
Than when twas warmed by living breath,
A naughty form with silvered hair
Amid the strangers gathered there
A rose dropped by an unknown hand
With perfume from a foreign land
Upon the coffin lid
A ship at anchor in the Bay,
That in the evening bore away
A form that landed yesterday.

of a wag withal, fell victim to the wiles
of John Barleycorn," recently, and be-
came ''sea-sick, if the Hibernianism may
be allowed, so that he had to anchor in
fence corner and ''heave.'' Holding on to
a rail, he poured forth promiscuous cas-

thizing friend, while passing, feelingly in
quired, "halloa! what's the matter? are
you sick ?'' The victim turned upon him
look in which was concentrated perfect
avalanche of reproachful contempt, and
blurted out, between the intervals of his
copious upheavals, "Confound you, d. SER

Gen. Beauregard, it seems, dyes. A
letter from the White Sulphur Springs,
in sketching the notabilities at recent
ball there, says:
"But what young man is that whose
raven moustache may be seen wherever
beauty and grace reign most decidedly?
Some one whispers that it is Gen. Beau
regard, the great engineer and gallant
soldier; but surely that cannot be, for
the last time saw that great chieftain
his hair was as white rs driven snow, and
his bronzed features were not those of
the ballroom gallant. But another look
convinces me that my friend is right;
especially when I remember the ready
reply made by the brave chieftain to one
of the bellies who twitted him on this
change. when was in command OF an
army said he, L used to dye my hair
white to impress my soldiers with pro-
per respect for my age and position; but
after the war closed, and the necessity
passed away, allowed it to return to its
natural color May his locks never turn
grey, and may he live long to enjoy the
society of which he is 80 bright m orna-
ment."

WA1HAnIA, August 16, 1869.
Wyor, IL NJ Pa,1, Alston, S. c.
DEAh SIR: am here endeavoring to re-
oruit my Health; and yours Of July 2S,
mailed 81st July, lis now before me.
drop you line in reply.
am glad to learn that your District
Society is turning thoir attention to the
subject Of immigration, as regard it the
only salvation of our country; and will
be pleased to give. you any information
in our power.
We have already brought in nearly
300 immigrants, from sixty to seventy
five per cent. of whom have proved
themselves good laborers. I have now
on my place nine who are giving far
greater satisfaction than the free negro
and who are employed for wages, which
negroes show an unwillingness to do,
structed to demand half of what they
make next year. which the planter can
not possibly give.
In view of the probable scarcity of
labor next year, we will doubtless have
more orders for immigrants this winter
than we will be able to fill, so those who
wish to secure laborers through the So
ciety should file their orders as soon as
possible, for they will be filled in the
order in which they are given.
Our agent will go on to Castle Garden
early in November, and remain there
until near the end Of December, and So
cure all the laborers who can be induced
to come South; and these will be given
to parties who have ordered, according
to their names on the order book. "First
come, first served"
We will endeavor to mako arrange
ments with all the railroad companies in
the State to deliver immigrants at lowest
possible rates, and, of course, where
most convenient for parties, wa will de-
liver them at stations on the Charlotte
Road.
Your people shoald endeavor to be in
time with their orders, as some laborers
will be sent on as early as 18th November,
and these can be Of service in getting out
the cotton crop.
We will in short time issue q circular
setting forth our plan of operations and
terms, and will send you some to distri-
butte among those interested in the work.
Very respectfully,
T. S. BOINEST,
President Newberry Immigration So
ciety.

M. RoCHEFoRT ON THE IMPERIAL AM
NEsTY.-M. Rochefort, the leader of the
"Irreconciliables," as he is now styled,
writes as follows with regard to the late
amnesty of the Emperor Napoleon:
'To-day, my friends inform me, that q
sponge has been passed over my past CO.
reer, and that an august clemency (Cle-
mence, du reste, is the name of my cook
has remitted the various penalties have
incurred during the last year, by dint OF
economy and good conduct Who-what
is it-what do they want with me? TIC
what penalties do they allude? Have !
been amnestied? Iknow nothing of it.
What law Courts and Government de.
eide upon has nothing to do with me,
and have determined to remain quite
unconnected with either tho one or the
other. The only sentence and the only
amnesty can accept, are those awarded
by the people. It forms the only tribu-
nal and the only power before which ii
is my good pleasure to bow. I shall only
return to France when the people recall
me by its vote. I shall only re-enter my
country in obedience to the imperative
mandate which I shall presently solicit
from the electors of the First Circum.
scription. I receive willingly from the
people, which know and love, but il
does not suit me to be under an obliga.
tion to low persons (gens) whom I have
never seen, and who have never been
presented to me-"

JoURNALisa:.-T New York Times
has an article on journalistic amenities,
which contains some excellent sugges-
tions. We extract the following para
graph:
"There is method of advocating q
cause by denouncing its enemies, which
may be, and often is, carried to excess,
especially by youthful partisans. It is
not by harsh names nor by persistent
detraction that men are persuaded to
abandan their opinions, and those who
ply that sort of warfare are usually less
intent on gaining proselytes than in
making q public or partisan merit of
their zeal. No one is fit to be guide
to public opinion who has not learned
that the bad mon are not generally quite
80 bad, nor the good men quite so good
as the Incorporate partisan is disposed
to believe them, and soft words often
dissolve prejudices and errors in our ad-
versaries which violence and detraction
render solid and imperishable.

THE FEVER AND AaUE SEASON.

When the leaves begin to change, remittent
and intermittent fevers make their appear
ance. From the surface OF the earth, bathed
nightly in heavy dews, from marshes and
swamps surcharged with moisture from the
dying foliage OF the woods. from fostering
tember evolves clouds OF miasmatic vapor pc
rilous to health and life. The body, deprived
by the burning temperature Of July and Au-
gust OF much OF its vlgor and elasticity, is not
IN proper plight to resist malaria; ann hence
all diseases that are produced by deprayed

prevalent in the foil.
There il no reason why the health Of thou

''Four children were burned to death

Fall bonnets are decidedly larger than
those Of last season. They are high,
towering structures, in the Henri Quatre
and Louis Quinze styles, and once more
begin to resemble a bona tide bonnet.
The frame fits the head like close cap,
and worn very far forward. A standing
revers of velvet or silk is turned up at
the front and at the back. The space
between these is filed by a high Vatican
puff, on which is looped q mass of trim
ming, which seems to be held in place
by the upright revers. Narrow ribbons
tied under the chin hold the bonnet se-
curely. Another style, of Quakerish
simplicity, resembling an infants bonnet
in shape, has close-ftting band in 'front.'
and doep, fiat back, or crown, falling
in two or three curves below to fit over
the coiffure of chatelain braids, with re-
ference to which it was evidently de-
signed. The front frames the face plainly,
without ornament; the back is adorned
with trailing feathers and vines that hang
among the low braids.
