Origin of Ii nch Law.

/ J. \. Sandidge in the New Orleans Picayune.
In Campbell county, Va, on the
Roanoke river (thm called Staunton
river, during the old Revolutionary
4 War, when there were some Tories of OBJ
noxlous character still remaining in the
county not reachatle by any statutory
law, Colonel Charles Lynch, supported
by Captain Robert Adams, his brother
in-law, both farming ON adjoining plan
tations, and - Galloway, determining
to rid the country of such dangerous
enemies, seized on different occasion S
three of the worst Of them, tied them 10
a tree and logged them so severely as o
prompt an unce,emonious departu e
from the state, as they were orderet :.
| This sort OF procedure on the part OF
Lynch and his friends, proving so effec-
tive in Campbell, was soon followed in
other countries, where loyalty to King
I George sometimes provoked summary
punishment, and il was called "Lynch
law, and has beer to our dav.
a snatch of an old song of the time is
still repeated in tie neighborhood:
Huzza for Captain Boz, Colonel Lynch and Gallo
way,
Never let Tory rest II he cries out liberty"
Joln Lynch, the brother of Charles
Lynch, was the founder of Lynchburg;
only few or their descendants are now
living, none in Virginia, bearing the
family name, so far as is known, the last
OF the males, Charles Henry Lynch, and
brother, John Pleasant, having died
in Campbell county since the rebellion );
their sister, Mrs bearing, and her
daughter, Mrs. Faunt LIE Roy, now oc-
cupy the old homestead, where still re-
mains the stump of a walnut tree to
which the three Tories were tied and
whlpped-life was never taken.
Webster in his unabridged dictionary,
says Of Lynch law" that it was the
practice of Furnishing men for crimes or
offenses by private, unauthorized per-
sons, without legal trial The term is
said to be derived from a Virginia farm
er named Lynch, who thus took the law
into his own hands"

FARM AND HOME.
A Sharp Trick.

Says the indianapolis Sentinel: A
pork packer of this city is entitled to
credit for the discovery of new swindle.
While bartering for a carload of hogs
recently he noticed that the backs of his
favorite staple were covered with mud,
and an examination of the floor of the
car revealed to him the fact that the
ailuvlal accumulation was not matter
of accident, but of design, several hun
dred pounds of clay of wonderful adhes-
i've properties having been systematically
thrown upon the floor and dashed with
water, to which the hogs with their well
known propensities for wallowing had
gone with a relish. He did not buy, but
latter in the day heard that the drover
had sold to another packer, and was
Dragging loudly that he not only saved
shrinkage, but received more than S37
for the mud that incrusted the backs of
his porkers.

A Spanish Poem.

oh let the soul its slumber break,
Arouse it's senses and awake,
To see how soon
Life, with its glory, glides away,
Aud the stern footsteps OF decay
Come stealing on.
And while we near the rolling tide,
Down which our flowing minutes glide
Away so fast,
Let us the present hour employ,
And deem each future dream oil Joy
Already past.
Let no vain hopes deceive the mind
No happier let Us hope to find
Tomorrow than to-day.
Our golden dreams Of y0re were bright,
Like them the present shall delight
Let them decay.
Our lives like hasting streams must be;
That into one engulfng sea
Are doomed to fall
The sea of death, whose waves roll On
Ger king and kingdom, crown and throne,
And swallow all.
Alike the rivers lordly tide,
Alike the riv'let's humble glide
To that cad wave
Death levels poverty and pride,
And rich and poor lay side by siDe
Within the grave.
Our birth is but the starting place,
Life but the running of a race,
And Death the goal
There all those glittering toys are brought,
The path alone of all unsought,
Isfound by all
Say then, how poor and little worth
Are all those glittering toys of earth
That lure us here;
Dreams of sleep that death must break,
Alas before it bids us wake,
Ye disappear.

it's whole face and form turned to q

me, while it's whole form was full OF
passion, fierceness and frenzy. l
Jumped from the bed, and as l shrank

ers cursing at me. Then all at once
there appeared in the corner q form
larger and more soul-sickening than
all the Others. It's appearance was
more CHASTITY than any description

hays. This mixture of devil and hu.
man marched right up to me with
face and look that will haunt me to
my grave. 1t began by making
threatening gestures, and all the
time talking to me, saying that 1t
would thrust it's fingers through my
ribs and drink my blood. Then it
would stretch out its long, bony,
skeleton fingers, that looked like
knives, and hal hal Then it said it
would sit upon me and press me into
hell. That it would roast me with
birthstone, and dash my burned
entrails into my eyes. Saying this
it sprang upon me, and for what
seemed to me an age, fought the
unearthly thing. At last it said 'Let
me CO." and when | did it glided to

look, IL said, "I will soon be back

Children, lying heaped close together,

like thoy we're sleeping, while others
seemed to have died in awful agony,

contor.ious Others bad their eyes
bursted from their heads, and hang

and cry; then the dead mother
would rise up and curse me for
tram pling under foot her child. And
devils would surround me, with hor-
rid oaths, and curse me for disturb
ing the dead. l would tremble and
beg and try to find some place to put
my feet, but the dead were in heaps,
and covered all the ground so that L
