IN the ohlen time it was customary
TO bestow wreaths OF laurel and bay,
on one who had achieved distinction
in any special direction. A grea
victor was embalme4 in the lnemor,
Of his compeers, ard pears Of praise
were chanted, and not unfrequcntl,
costly Sacrifices were made 10 ccle

1t is fact too patent that much

Bret Ilarte recently wrote a poem
which was read OF, tho occasion OF
the Grand Reunion of the Army o!
the Potomac, at Boston, which we
think is fat, stale and Improbable,
and does no credit to the genius its
author. 1t is said it elected much
applause Of course, it was from the
pen Of Bret Harte. The wires have
badly mutila,ed the production, M
doubt, for no two papers have it alike,
but in its best light, ii is simply a
sample Of school.hoy' poetry, and
hardly as good as the average.
The title Of the poem is, "The old
Major Explains We clip stanaa
or two, which are tair samples.
Tie poem begins:
Well, you see the fact Is solemn,
] don't know as | can come
For the farm IS not half planted
And there's work To do nj home
Quite evident If the farm was no,
half plasted--
The Major proceeds:
And nv leg is getting troublesome
II laid me up last fall
And doctors they have cut and hacked
And never found the ball
Hot work oh, Colonel wasn't its
Ye mini that narrow front
Thcreg they caiic& it Death Angel.
Well we'll my lad, we won't
Fight that old battle over now;
only mean to say
] really c,n't engage to come
Upon the twelfth of May,
No doubt the Major might have
made it convenient To 90 to Boosting,
maybe on the thirteenth or after
whortle-bcrry time; this is simpl,
rhyme, and very simple too.
This is thesiast of the "eovcy:"
Well, well, excuse me, Colonel,
But there are some things that drop
The tail board, out one ones feelings,
And the only ways to stop,
So they want to see the old man-ah,
The rascsls, do they, ch?
Well, I've business down in Boston
About the twelfth OF May
1t seems that the Major did con.
clu lie to 60 to Boosting About the l2,h.
We think Harte's reputation suffers
n, .terially by this poem. 1t is igno,
bic, unworthy the occasion, and re-
h,cting no credit on it's author as a
poet, or a man of geuias. llarte has
written many good things--lhis is
not one Of them.

The yard in front of st. Peters Church
has been fenced up at last, and the i'm
closure is being made very beautiful by
the ladies of the church. Nothing can
be more appropriate than beautiful ev-
ergreens around or in church of Him
who teaches the Immortality of the soul.
We understand that the liberal-hearted
Rector erected the fence at his own ex-
pense. Such ibcrality is just like him.
We think Americans get more credit
for being workers than they deserve. If
the Rector of st. Peters Church, in this
city, is representative of his nation,
we give old England the praise of SUI
periority. He not only attends to the
varied interests of his school, the Insti-
tute, and of1iciates at st. Peters Church,
but also looks to the spiritual interest OF
other focks, in the county. When ne Is
absent from Columbia on the Sabbath,
Hon. James H. Thomas, lay member,
reads a printed sermon to the congrega-
ton at St. Peters. He selects q good
sermon, and being an excellent reader,
his hearers are highly pleased, we learn.
1t is said that John Bright, one of the
greatest men in England, reads the Bible
to the poor people on his farm. Mr..
Thomas is also an able statesman and
lawyer, and the friends of christianity
should rejoice 10 see Sucn strOng men

fessions-engaged in preaching the
Word" when their worldly duties are
finished.
VIM Shirley says he has 5000 monu-
ment for Mrs S0well, to go over her hus-

Capt. L. w. Black drove "Old Black
Prince" through our streets last Monday,
to the admiration of all lovers of grace,

Prince" is royal looking horse. Bruce,
editor of the Field, IMrf d Farm, proba-
bly, the be best authority in horse mat
tiers in America, had one of his colts, and
says it afterwards sold for $1,000.

OVER THE COUNTY,

Col. n. C. Gillespie says he will not
plant a stalk of cotton the present year.
The difference in slave and free labor
has been forcibly illustrated on his farm.
He made bale of cotton an acre, on one
of his fields before the war, and last
year freedman planted the same land
in cotton, and made just one fourth the
number of Dales raised in the days of
slavery. Col. Gillespie always paid a
great deal OF attention to stock-raising,
and hereafter that branch of farming
will receive almost his entire time. He
has ITO acres in clover, 10 of which is
meadow. He is sowing grass in all his
woods lots, and has received some land
plaster from Virginia for his worn and
tired lands, haying been persuaded to
do so by Col. j. w. S. Ridley, Maj. Ben.
Harlan, James Jones, Tom Jones, Capt.
Hamilton, and others, who had tried it
These gentlemen told him that land
plaster sowed on clover after it comes
up, will make it produce double.

Our community is again called upon to
mourn the loss of one Of its most pronli-
nent citizens. Mr.. NJ. 8. Frierson has
been very il-alnost at the point of
death-fbr four or five months, and last
Tuesday night about eleven o'clock, he
Wrapped the drapery OF his couch about
him and laid down to pleasant dreams, y
In the arms OF his Savior. Yes
terday morning at half-past ten large
number of citizens gathered at the resi-
dence to pay the last sad tribute to their
departed fellow-citizen. Rev. j. ". +.
Otis delivered few very beautiful and
touching remarks on the LIE ana .charac-
ter of the deceased, VINO was member
of his church and his near neighb0r.
He Maid a high tribute to Mr.. Frierson's
inteIlect and Kindness of heart The de-
ceased was then taken to Zion Church,
seven miles in the country, followed by
a procession of citizens in carriages, and
there buried among his dead kindred.
Mr. Friersonwas nearly 81 years old when
he died. He was esteemed by the bar
as one of the most learned lawyers in
the State. and he gained considerable
character as a profound jurist by his
able and unanswerable arguments be-
fore the highest Courts in the State.
He possessed remarkably retentlye
memory. and he was frequently called
a q law encvclopedia," having at his fin
gers ends all the decisions in important
cases. He possessed great fondness for
horticulture and Horticulture, and his
garden and ward has long been an orna-
ment to our citv. But best of all, he was
a firm believer in the religion of the
Lord Jesus Christ.

HURRICANE ITEMS.

The people around Hurricane are said
to be very sociable and neighborly, and
having plenty of this worlds goods,
take life pleasantly.
a few days ago a negro boy was
caught in the cog-wheel of w. l.. Wilkes
cotton gin, near Hurricane, and being
drawn under the trun lie, was literally
torn to pieces. His brain was left on
the coos. OF course he was instantly
killed. Boys should not be allowed to
so about cotton gin: while i'll operation.
The fishing season around Hurricane
has opened finely, and fine strings of
trout have been caught in Fountain
Creek.
Mr.. James Dillahay, near Hurricane,
has quite curiosity, in the shape of a
calf without any tail. 1t is milk white,
and exceedingly pretty, and has never
had any sign of a tail
There is promise of an abundant fruit
crop in the Hurricane country.
The farmers around Hurricane are
planting corn, whenever the weather
will admit.
Meadows and clover fields in the Hur-
ricane country look very inviting to cat
tie and sheep.
About one mile from Hurricane two
daughters of Simon Harris, COL, recent
ly had three fights in one day. They
pulled wool, gouged and scratched each
other fearfully.
A difficulty occurred last week be-
tween Mr.. Campbell and Mr.. Morgan.
1t was regular old time fist fight, and
blood flowed like wine keg bursted.
Morgan was pretty badly used up, and
