Gomez"
The young man hesitated; he felt
as if he were sailing under false
colors. The truth was, ne and the
Wylies were not on good terms. al
though they had formerly been
friends. But their lands joined, and
dispute about boundaries had lat
terly arisen, involving this same
pretty knoll with its spring and ap-
pie trees. The old "mere-stone"
had been lost track of, and Mr.. Wy
lie, surveying one day after his own
fashion, found, or fancied he found,
that he had a right to the knoll.
This claim young Hugh Greystone
had refused to recognize. Mr.. Wy
lie, who was hot and hasty, had be-
gun legal measures, and Hugh, in
dignant, had naturally ceased visit
ing at the Wylie mansion.
"Of course, you needn't come if
you don't want to!" said Kitty,
piqued at his hesitation.
II do want to come" he answered
earnestly, "and will, if I can posi-
bly, arrange it So"
"Ill expect you,' said Kitty,
lightly; then she lifted the pail of
berries and would have said good
morning" but Hugh stepped in
stantly to her side, and taking the
pail, went with her as far as the old
wall. Then he watched her until
she disappeared in the Wylie garden.
When he turned his back his brow
was knit but his lips were smiling.
After short dehberation, he deter
mined togo 10 Airs Wylis;s party,
and to pay royal price for it.
Here's your raspberriesl" Kitty
exclaimed, gaily. as she entered the
house; "and now I'll sit right down
and pick them over"
"You dear little SOUL" said Mary,
with fervor, 'you are such com
fort. But I am afraid you are tired
out, your face is SO flushed"
sob, I ran up the PATH said
Kitty, bending over the berries.
Together they prepared the float,
beating the eggs up high and light,
and gradually adding the sugar and
berries, till they had great dish
heaped. up like massive mountain
with the delieacy, which was in tint
an exquisite pale purple. 1t was a
house where every one liked to visit,
and Mary Wylie was apopular girl.
Kitty, looking very piquant and
pretty, made quite sensation; and
she herself enjoyed the evening, the
more, perhaps, because of certain
secret excitement that set her heart
bounding every time u newcomer
entered the door, and her first
thought was, "Is it he?"
But time passed, and he came not.
There had been dancing, and every
one was tired. Presently the cake
was passed around, and everyone
partook, with the pleasant anticipa-
| ton that ice cream was coming
next 1t was such a warm July eve
ming that they were pardonable.
When the high-piled purple dish
was brought in, it was universally
noticed, for human nature does feel
interested in what it is about to eat
at party.
II never saw lavender ice cream
before" whispered one to q neigh
Dor, and Mary Wylie heard it. She

cream is all souri,"
And her handsome face darkened
with positive annoyance. It was
really too vexatious, for she had in
vited a score or more of young
friends for that evening, to meet her
newly arrived cousin Kitty, and Of
course she ought to have ice cream.
The Wylies were rather famous for
their delicious ice cream, which
they always made themselves for
company; but the thermometer at
ninety-eight, and thunder storm,
had curdled all the milk in the
dairy.
"The cake is all ready" said
Mary, sitting down in her perplex-
ity. But what else are we to have.
Coffee is too hot, and lemonade is
too much like fair Kitty. can't
you think of some little light thing,
easy to make, to take the place of
ice cream?"
Thus appealed to, Kitty inquired,
thoughtfully, do you like fioat?"
"What is foat?"
1T takes eggs; mamma makes it
often for us at home, evenings.
She beats the whites of eggs up like
q snowy mountain, and, puts in
sugar, and then she beats in straw
berries, or raspberries, or jelly, to
make it q pretty color, and davor it.
We eat it in saucers like ice cream. =
ut soundsgood," said Mary, with
little revival of hope, "and we
have plenty Of eggs. But straw
berries are all gone-there are rasp-
berries, to be sure, down in the
lots. But burn SO if I go in the
sun, and the servants are busy-no,
Tn afraid we can't make it.
"I'il pick the berries!" said Kitty,
jumping up; I'D like nothing bet
ter than stroll in the lots, and I'm
so brown already the sun won't
hurt me-"
"But you'll be SO tired" remon-
strated Mary, looking admiringly at
the merry brunette face. "and
want you to look your very pretti-
est tonight, so that our young men
may lose their hearts"
II think I would rather have
raspberries than hearts," replied
Kitty. saucily, and she put on her
hat and took pail, and, with few
words of direction, went down the
garden and through a gate into the
back lot. t-$
It was a burning July day, but
Kitty was child of the sun, and she
liked it. She had not been in the
country for long time before, and
she fairly reveled in feeling the
grass under her feet, the whirr OF
the grass-hoppers. and the little es-
cort of brown butterflies that futter-
ed all the time just ahead Of her.
Here are the raspberries, she
said to herself, as she came to the
low stone wall; mot very many OF
them, either-I suppose they pick
ed q good many for supper last
hight. But I'll CLEAN as | 60.
So she cleaned us she went, but
the berries were scarce, and as the
old wall was 10 tumble-down con-
dition, and there seemed to be more

the lot she was now in, and black
eyed young lady walking through
it stared curiously at Kitty as she
passed.
i believe I like birds better than
I do people" was Kitty's mental
comment on this; 'you dear little
robins, singing SO over in those APP
pie trees, I mean to 60 and watch
your housekeeping, and rest a little
while, for my pail is almost full"
The apple trees were in corner
Of the lot, and when Kitty reached
them. she found a bubbling spring
there, and rocks covered with love-
" lichens.
"Uncle Robert has good taste, :"
she said. ''to keep such charming
little nook here" And she sat down
in the shadow of a tall rock, and
famed herself with her hat. She
was in mood to thoroughly enjoy
everything, and it seemed to her
that she had never seen the sky SO
beautiful before, nor such beautiful
clouds.
I'D like to marry farmer!" she
said. impulsively, aloud; and to her
utter disrnay, a pleasant, manly
voice, from the other side of the
rock, responded:
Would you? That's quite a rare
choice nowadays"
Kitty sprang up and started to
run, when, of all calamities, in her
haste she upset her pail of raspber-
ries, and away, they rolled in every
direction. With burning cheeks
she began to pick them up, for it
would never do to disappoint Mary
about the float, and she threw an
indignant glance at the young man,
who now came around in full view,
and said he begged her pardon; he
knew he ought not to have spoken,
but it really seemed impolite not to
answer!
"Your politeness has spilled my
berries, you see!' she replied rather
sharply.
"Allow me, he exclaimed instant
ly, and grasping the pail, he began
to pick up the berries with her.
They worked together in perfect
silence for a few minutes, hunting
the berries among the grass, and
down in the soft green moss. One
large berry had caught in spiders
web; they both reached for it at the
same time; their hands touched,
their eyes met. and the young man
smiled; and SO, in spite of herself,
did Kitty.
"Do forgive me-" he said; "you
shall not be one berry the loser by
i'll" And he rescued two on the
brink Of the spring.
81 will," answered Kitty, "but
you must never tell the farmers"
After that, of course, it was absurd
to be formal, and, like two happy
young creatures in the heyday of
youth, they made a frolic of the
whole thing, and laughed over every
berry. Kitty told him what she
picked them for, and for whom, and
he said he was well acquainted with
Miss Wylie.
Perhaps, then, you will be there
tonight" she remarked, hoping IN
her heart that he would.
II have not been invited" he an
swered. soberly.
"On, WE'LL" said Kitty, merrily,

The old time fashion Of Hogging,
which is, even now, the only method
of maintaining discipline, is not
without objections.
Sometimes serious consequ ences
arise from its use, either from the
lack of seif-control on the part Of tho
teacher, or from over.seusitivaness On
the part Of the parent whose reaso
is apt to be blinded by love for his
offspring.
Again, while the obs. porous
pupil must be controlled, there is lit
tie wisdom i'll br,nking the spirit of a
boy in this way. Often brutal
teachers seem TO delight IN getting up
sort of reputation for Aogging
ch2tlren.

any way as objecting to punishment
III schools. 1t is rs necessary for the
discipline Of the school as medicine
Is Tor the health of tho body.
But it is my opinion that the plan
of letting every man who sets him
self up rs teacher exercise the right
Of hogsing at his own discretion, is
unw'se and tends to injury.
1t seems to me that the State
should regulate this matter of pun
ishment i'll schools. The truth i. all
our schools should be in charge of
the State, and regular puni shments
should be fixed by law. In the
military and marine schools, where
good discipline is proverbial, such
systematic punish mont is used. It
matters not what the modo OF punish
ment lie, il it is regulated by law, tn
objections are removed.
The strong hand Of the State is in
the matter There are checks b 9th
OIL the teacher aud the parent, snd
difficulties from inliscretion are mot
apt to arise, and if they do, there is
legal remedy for the offender
While we arc improving in very.

The Lynching.

Judge Presley, ms the exponent o!r
the law, brought before the Grand
Jury Of Spartanburg the case Of the
lynching Of John j. Moore in that
County. He showed the danger of
such resort. That no man would be
aaie. That the courts wore now in
our own hands, and justice could be
obtained, and that thero was now no
excuse for such violence, and that it
must be stopped.
The Grand Jury. after investiga-
ton, replied i'll substance, that the
fact was su,.stantated that Moore was
lynchcd by the citizens, but that
they acted in obeG jence to the die
tates Of justice, and merely anti cipa-
ted the sentence cf tho law Of the
land. Here the mat ter rests.

Independence.

The opening Of the munici pal cam.
paign IN Charleston, and the indica-
tion that some Of the candidates in.
tend to run as Independents OF the
Campbell stripe, has suggested 10 US
few words OH the above subject.
Far be it from us to curtail in u.
dependence of thought and
action in politics. Upon this
alone depends the preservati IN
OF our liberties and the overthrow of
rings npd monopolies. But, in our
opinion, there is q way to be in lep-
endent, without being traitor. IF
our so.callcd Independence EN-
dangers our civilization by the re
establishment Of Radicalism, it can
no longer be styled independence but
se|fagg, andizement.
Our independence must exert
itself inside of the Democratic lines
There is room enough there for it. If
the party j.. not purified, and rings
not overturned, it is our own fault
1t is because we arc not bold and
independent enough in our own
ranks. There is much to remedy,
and it can be done alone by free
speech.
Itmay do very well to kick against
the shackles of party in communities
in which one party is as good as the
other, but, rs matters stand in tho
South, it won't do. He who di;re
CARDS the limitations Of the party
must under the circumstances, be set
down as an enemy.
Hopocrites may play Democratic
tunes with Radical blowing the
bellows. Undeserving men may We
elevated to position through private
influences. Such wrongs will exist
as long as the world lasts. But they
must not be cured by going outside of
the party. The man who does this
Is an enemy to good government. The
remedy is inside ofour own liUcs.

The process of spinning cotton
from the seed is likely to revolutions

Hurds Great Speech.

In our judgment the best spe ech Of
this session Of Congress was luaiea few
days ago by Hon. Frank II. lIurd Of
Ohio in answer to Mr.. G ,rGeld on
the Republican side. 1t is certainly
the clear.st exposition of the Consti-
,u,ion and The Democratic policy
ever yet given.
He showed that the doctrine o.
consolidation advanced by the Re-
publicans was entirely antagonistic
TO the EXPRESS provisions of the Con-
stitution.
Mr.. Garfield advanced the extra
ordinary PR position that the Union
preceded the States.
Mr.. Hurd met him with the Con-
stitution which declares, That the
powers not delegated to the United
States by the Constitution, nor pro
hibited by it to the States, are re-
perred to the States respectively. or
to the people" 1t was therefore
clearly shown that instead of Mr..
Garfield's monstroas assertion that
the Union preceded the States, the
truth is, and the letterus we'll as the
spirit of the Constitution shows that
tho Constitution and the Union is the
creature Of the States.
But the most complete knock down
to the Republican doctrine was the
following extract from the decision
Of Chief Justice Chase Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States in tn e
case Of Ian, County vp. Oregon
The people Of the United States
constitute one nation, under one
government, and this government,
within tho scope of the powers with
Which it 10 invested is annra:re On
the other hand, the people Of each
State compose q State, having its
oNn government, aud cndow, Il with
NIL the functions essential to separate
and independent existence. The
States disunited might continue to
exist. Without the States in union
there CT uld I've no such political body
rs the United States
Chase it must be remembered was
the great Republican light dur ing
the war.
Such decisions as ,he above, pre-
sented by Mr.. Davis great lawyer
Charles O'Conor after the war, when
tho Confederate Chieftain was
brought up for trial, put the United
States to thinking, and finally ell.ct-
ed the back down of the government.
Alr. Ilurd then goes on to expo.e
Tie extreme lallacy Of the extraordi-
nary vetoes Of Mr.. Hayes.
The President claims that the
action Of the Democrats abridges his
power 10 execute the laws.
Mr.. Hurd acknowledges the Presi-
dents right 10 execute the laws. but
outcst the constitution, that he shall
execute the laws by calling upon tho
@'ilitin Of the States, and not upon the
army. The latter is the creature of
Congress, and can only be usel rs
that body may direct.
Mr.. linrd concludes With an oIo-
quent peroration upon the danger to
eisil liberty from Republican aygrcs-
sion.
Gentlemen Che says the contest
will soon begin. Aye it has already
begun. | hear the whispcrings Of
