The JUICES DAUGHTER

So sad is my story, and so true,
that it seems branded into. my
memory in letters of fire. Il is no
story conjured up by the imagina.
tion, nor yet one that needs any
giOssing over by a fertile pen. -
All it's incidents are real-none
exaggerated. Not many years ago
hanghsy old man, a judge of In
corruptable morals, died, leaving
behind him two children. Affer
his death, it was found that he had
not been SO wealthy rs many had
imagined, yet rich enough to leave
to each daughter a moderate com.
petence. To the eldest sister de-
scended the homestead and suf.
ficient income to keep up their
former style; to the younger S20,.
600, invested in an old and trusty
bank. From infancy, Estelle, the
eldest, had been acquainted with a
poor, but proud spirited boy. She
had watched his Intellectual strug.
gles for an education such as lie
desired. admiring his unconquera.
ble ambition, and as he neared
manhood, he became her most ar,
dent lover. But the old Judge
demurred. No daughter Of his
should encourage the attentions of
apenniless yonth-their intimacy
must cease. Obedient as child,
she listened to her fathers com.
mands, and obeyed them implicitly.
He surrounded her wifi gay com.
pany; he did everything that
wealth or. taste could suggest, to
win her mind away from her boy
lover. But though she uttered no
complaints, he knew that she did
not forget. At last he died. He
did not bind her with any prom.
ises. Perhaps I'm death Iris eyes

MINING UHpRR THE SEA.-Thcre

where shafts extend many hundred
yards under the sea. Tie moan

against the rocks is forever sound.
ing in those gloomy aisles. When
the, storms come, the sound of the
waters becomes SO terrific that
even the boldest miners cannot
stay below, bnt leave thoir work
and come out upon the earth.
Overhead are masses Of bright
copper streaming through the
gallery in all directions, tra-
verscd by a network Of thin red
veins Of iron, and over all the salt
water drips down from tiny crev.
ices in the rock. Immense wealth
of metal is contained in these roofs,
but no miner dare give it another
stroke with the pickaxe. Already
there he's been one days work too
much upon it, as huge wedge of
wood driven into the rock bears
testimony. The wedge is all that
keeps back the sea from bursting
in upon them. Yet there are
three tiers of galleries where men
work day by day, not knowing but
at some fatal hour the food may
be upon them, rendering all escape
as hopeless as it was in the days of
Noah. The awe stricken visitor
hurries away from the scene with
a heart appalled, in view of the
hourly dangers.

1t is our duty this morning TO
announce the death, of the oldest
male inhabitant OF Anderson Coun-
ty. Mr.. Robert Breckenridge de-
parted this life at his. residence,
nine miles southeast of this place,
Oh Friday night last, in the 9lst
year of his age. He was a native
of County Antrim Ireland, and
came to this country when quite a
youth. Mr.. Breckenridge was en-
gagged in schooltcaching the great.
er portion of his long life, having
entered upon that avocation in
Abbeville about the year 1S00.-
He taught cnnsecutively from that
time until within the past few
months, but for number OF years
he followed the occupation only
nominally. He was universally y
esteemed for his sterling worth
and integrity, and numbered
among his friends, patrons and
pupils ne arly every prominent cit
izen OF Anderson for the past half
century. He was a member of
tue Masonic fraternity, and prob
ably the oldest Mason in this sec
tion ofthe State. He likewise be-
longed to the Presbyterian denom-
nation, and was consistent mem.
bcr Of that church. ,.E'
= r
He possessed tho genuine hnmor
of his native country, and we have
heard several Incidents in his life
worth relating. 1t is said that. on
certain occasion, Mr.. Brackcn
ridge visited this place when Court
was In session, and looking around
at the officers Of the Court and
members of the bar, remarked to
friend that lie had whipped ev-
cry one OF them, including Judge
Ear.e who was presiding, and Gen.
Whitner then Solicitor of this cir
cnit, as well as t e Clerk. Sheriff,
and all the lawyers. OF course,
the remark was repeated until it
reached the ears OF The Judge,
who shorty ordered an adjourn.
,nent of the Cou"t, and every one
began TO gather around the old
gentleman. for he had then reach
ed an advanced period in his life.
The sec which followed can bet
ter be imagined than described,
and 1t was one upon which this
venerable citizen loved to dwell
ever afterwards. He survived the
distinguished Judge many years,
and had lived to see many Of those
present 60 down to the grave
And now, at the close of very
lon :, useful and honorable career
on earth, heehas been gathered to
his fathers, and we trust that he
repos IS ip eternal peace. - ..

THE ART rF FINANcIER1NG.-A
singular financial transaction oc-
Cured in one of the dock offices a
day or two since. By some means
or other it happened that the office
boy owed one of the clerks three
cents, the clerk owed the cashier
two cents, and the cashier owed
the Office boy two cents. One day
last week the Office boy having a
cent in his pocket concluded to
diminish his debt, and therefore
handed the nick.e over to the
c;crk, who, in turn, paid half of
his debt by giving the coin to the
cashier. The latter handed the
cent back to the Office boy, remark.
ing. snow I only owe Jon one
cent" The office boy again passed
tho cent TO the clerk who passed it
to the cashier, who passed it hack
to the office boy, and the latter in
dividual squared all accounts, pay.
ing it to the clerk, thereby dis.
charging his entire debt. Thus it
may be seen how great is the ben
eft to be derived from a single
cent if only expended judiciousIy.

SELDOM do we meet with a truth
more beautifully expressed than
this from the New York Nation !:
:" Refined homes are the end of
civilization. All the work Of the
world-the railroading, naviga-
ting, digging, delving, manutac>
turing, inveniing, teaching, writ
ing, fighting, are done, first Of all,
to secure each family in the quiet
possession of its own hearth and,
secondly, to surround as many
hearths as possible with grace and
culture and beauty. The work of
all races for 5000 years is repre-
sented in the difference between a
wigwam and lady's parlor. 1t
has no better result to show"

A Curious Inventaon.

DIR. Milo, the celebrated sur.
geon ofKieff, has recently been at
st. Petersburg explaining q means
he has invented of illuminating
the body by means Of the electric
light to such an extent that the
human machine may be observed,
almost as if skin and flesh were
transparent. The Moscow Gazette
asserts that to demostl ate the feas.
ibilty of his process, DR.. Milo
placed q bullet inside his mouth,
and then lighted mp his face, upon
which the bullet became distinctly
visible though s,his cheek. Dr..
Milo does not propose, to lay bare
all the secrets of the. flesh, to ex.
piore the recesses Of the heart, or to
perform any miracles physical or
metaphysical But he claims to
have discovered ANEW and effect.

next, by means of magnetism, he
proposes to. extract the bullet

Against leaden bullets this system
is powerless, and he therefore in
tends to represent to the Interna
tional Committee, which lately
met at Geneva, the desirability OF
recommending an admixture ot

BADLY INJURED.-Elijah Day, an old
an well known citizen, fell down flight
Of steps at the Fourth street Methodist
Church, yesterday morning, injuring
himself very seriously. TWAS rumored
that one Of his arms was broken and
that he had received very severe inter
nal injuries. He was taken into one of
the class rooms where he received med
ical treatment to enable HIM to be taken
to his residence. Drs. Bates and Jep
son rendered him every attention. An
examination showed that his. arm was
not broken, but that he had suffered a
dislocation Of the right shoulder.

A New IDEA.-The Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company have discarded
the use of kerosene oil for headlights
to the locomotives on their road. In
stead, tank of gasoline is placed
above the headlight, and into this tank
a small jet of steam is introduced. By
this means gas is generated and forced
down into the burner. The saving is
quite an item. Kerosene costs about
eight cents a mile. By the use of the
gasoline this cost is reduced to two cents
a mile, and the light is four or five
times more powerful.

Daring Attempt at Burglary and
Murder at Bellaire.S ) l-
One Of the Robbers Captured

Between the hours of one and two
o'clock on Saturday morning, q daring
but unsuccessful attempt was made to
blow up the safe in the Office of the Ma
tional Glass Manufacturing Company,
in South Bellaire, by two desperate and
tolerably well educated "cracksmen."
The company's Office is situated on
the bank OF the river, about one hun
dred and fifty feet from the works.
The thieves gained access by forcing
a window in the rear, and then proceed
ed to open the safe (ire-prooD by means
of heavy sledge, crow-bar and drills,
and succeeded in boring a hole, in which
they placed heavy charge Of powder.
At this stage Of the proceedings one Of
the boys, who had gone out Of the
works for some coal, heard the noise in
the office, and gave the alarm to the
hands then at work in the factory, when
a lively scene ensued. The blowers
rushed out en- masse, hoping to capture
the thieves in the act, but the latter see
ing them approach, rapidly made their
exit through the back window, and ran
across the fields, the hands following
close and gaining on them, when one Of
the thieves turned and fired from large
navy revolver at Mr.. Beck, who was
then but few feet from him, but for
tunately without hitting him. Seeing
no hope of escape, he gave himself up,
and was placed in the lookup in Bellaire.
The other succeededin escaping through
the darkness. The one under arrest has
given the name of his accomplice, which
is withheld for prudential reasons, and
states that they came from Wegee, car
rying their tools and arms with the ex-
press purpose of robbing the safe.
Knowing the next morning twas pay
day, they supposed the money for that
purpose was in the safe, but in this sup
position they were wrong, as the COM
pany keep ne money on the premises,
and the safe is simply fire.proof for
the protection of books and papers.
Too much praise cannot be awarded
to the hands engaged in the capture, for
the fearless manner in which they pur-
sued the thieves in spite of the number
Of shots fired

This Crow requested the court to hear
him for his cars, but it did not save
him from the payment Of one dollar
and costs.
