comes from the fort holders themselves,
who seem to have effectuslly poisoned their
ears. And 20 the gallant little band who
man the fort may well boast of their success

Al HOT DAY.
BY LEE o. HARRIS.

Oh, for come kindly wind to blow q 'J
A breath of grateful GOODNESS here,
I long, wish in vain, for oh!
I lie and gasp, as round me flow.
Hot waves Of melted atmosphere.
Within the orchards shade I lie,
Itear not cen the hum of bees,
The very robbins dare not fly
The sun-scorched breezes futter by,
And painting. fall among the trees.
lot foods of burning sunlight blend,
And melt the shadows as they pass,
Like arrows through the trees descend
Long blazing shafts of light, that bend
And splinter on the scorching grass.
Those clouds I thought were drawing nigh;
Like birds of outspread wing they came :
Alas, they crossed the blazing sky,
Like moths around candle fly,
To burn and perish in the fame.
Oh for the singing winds that blow
Their music DER the ocean waves,
Oh for the crystal streams that flow,
Half frozen, over fields of snow,
From Nova Zembla's icy cave.
Alas, there comes nc winds to cheer,
No crystal streams nor fields of snow,
A blazing Summer Gun is here,
And waves of burning atmosphere,
That melt the shadows as they flow.

ON the side upon which Mr.. Leach fell, nothing

HIGHLANDS, MACON Co, N. c., I
Aug. t7th, 1876.

The weather is variable, liable to sudden show
ers, yet on the whole, the tempeIa ture is unusu-
ally even The nights are always cool. During
the middle of the day in summer, the sun is often
oppressyely warm, but cool breezes are quite
common, Showers are frequent, and with little
warning They are generally of brief duration.
AS elsewhere, there is occasionally regular
drencher. Our third week at Highlands gave us
opportunity to see what it was possible for the
elements to do. 1t began to rain on NJ onday and
continued with few intermissions, during the
whole week, continuous pour. The mountain
streams were swollen as they had not been for
wears btfose The ''oldest inhabitaIt'' had not
seen the like for 40 years. Dobson's mill was
swept away, as also several other mills along the
Sugar Fork This mill was another Of the insti-
tutions Of the place. 1t was combined cav and
grist mill Its proportions were the most dimin-
utiye and Its fixtures the most primitive we had
ever seem and yet it suf1ccd to grind up corn for
hoecake purposes, and TO saw out few boards as
occasion might now and then demand. This was
the ssmiil OF the circular. 1t had stood for many
years, and its destruction by the flood was real
loss to the comm unity, though not probably more
than hundred dollars or so to the owner. We
heard Of one mill down river the which had been
constructed at an expense Of ST 90! twas reported
that the mail carrier picked up the mill stones !

taken the husbands acknow ledgment,

argued with her III vain. She asked
the Notary if her dover could be seized
for lrr hu.b,ud's debts, and when the
reply was in the negative she began to
move toward the door. Her husband
barred her progress, aud in loud tone
upbraided her for her refusal But the

causes and effects of the poison Of

make of himself matyr To science.
and accordingly banded his thumb to
an impatient insect he had Gagged in a
bottle. The wasp entered into the
