Esther took the object, uttered q

With puzzled air the farmer took
the dirty envelope and with trembling
fingers extracted a mildewed note for

In his bewiIderment the old fellow

stood George Stanley.

man said, "the boy is here but not
poor. There are the bills you wanted
to see before claimed Esther"

The Home OF a Southern Poet.

Auantlc constitution.
In a small vine-clad cottage in
Columbia county. just sixteen miles
northwest of Augusta, lives Paul III.
Hayne, the poet. On the summit of a
sloping hill stands the snOw-white villa,
dazzling beneath green foliage of oak
and cedars. Here and there small
shrubery dots neatly terraced yard
fringed with white stones. These
make up the exterior of the poets home.
1t was 10 o'clock when l drove up
in front of Mr.. Haynes house, and was
invited by servant to a seat in the
sitting room. This room is peculiarly
striking. The walls were pasted from
floor to ceiling with pictures of all
descriptions taken from the periodicals.
On the left of the first door was a
large steal engraving of Gen. Wade
Hampton, who presented it to the
poet on the dedication Of a piece of
poetry to him. Above the mantel are
pictures of Dickens, Lord Byron, Har-
riet Martineau and other distinguished
persons. Here and there stands an
elegant piece of furniture, reminder
of the former wealth of the aristocrat
Hayne family. In an adjoining room
is an extensive library of hundreds of
the choicest volumes in the English
language. Near the shelves of this
treasured store house is a bed, which
bespeaks the feebleness of Mr.. Hayne
in his later years.
Mr.. Hayne is a man of polished man.
ners and friendly address, about five feet
six inches tall, of round, symmetrical
figure, olive complexion, dark, penetrat-
ing brown eyes, beaming with intelli-
gence, beneath an average projecting
forehead he is natural orator in
conversation, so much so that one can
not but be reminded of the fact that
he is IA nephew of Robert Hayne; Mr..
Webster's formidable opponent.

INDIAN SUMMER
81 .

The dry leaves lie in drifts of brown and
yellow,
Within the forest hooks and on the hill
sides bare;
And, falling over all, the sunshine mellow
Drifts warmly downward through the
haZy air.
In sombre beauty lie the level meadows
Beneath the soft glow of the Autumn
sky;
Flecked, ever and anon, with quiet shad-
OwS
That at the coming of the sunshine die.
The forest rises in its solemn splendor,
Shorn of the garments it was wont TO
wear;
Wrapped in mist of purple, soft and
tender,
Like dim vapor, filling all the air.
The far-oG mountains rise in stately
grandeur,
Until their lofty SUBMITS pierce the mist
That hangs its lazy wreathes of pearl and
amber
About the great brows, which the sun
has kissed.
The breeze is full of soft and balmy odors,
A quiet, slumbrOus stiffness fills the air
AL these are but the sad yet sweet fore
That come time when gloom is every
where.
The Winter comes, and all the Falls rare
sweetness
Must fade and pail before his white
And in her beauty and her fair complete
ness,
The Autumn Queen will perish in the
storm.

q Phenomenon.

Nearly everybody in Charleston, S.
c., was astonished and amazed about 8
o'clock the other night by the appear
ance in the sky Of aphenomenon which
bore a strong resemblance TO the tail of
comet. People who were out on the
street stopped and gazed in wonder at
the unusual sight, and many opinions
were expressed as to what was the
character and portent of the supposed
celestial visitor. The phenomenon ap-
peared near the zenith in the western
sky, and extended almost across the
sky. 1t looked like Il luminous cloud,
but was curved and continuous. A
large crowd of star gazers gathered on
King street TO gaze at the alleged COM
ct, which, however, lasted only twenty
minutes. Scientific viewers of the
phenomenon are divided in opinion as to
whether it was stray cloud or a very
large lunar halo.

A GIRLS PROMISE.

"And you propose to stand by what
you say, sir?"
Exactly, George"
Then silence fell between the two
men for few moments.
1t was the old story-the useless pc.
tition of poverty stricken youth asking
Of wealthy old age the hand of beauty
George Stanley had loved pretty
Esther Dana from his childhood up,
and Esther had returned his love in
full measure, but when the decisive
moment came and he asked rich old
Farmer John for his daughter then he
was told that he was too poor to be
aspiring.
After staring for awhile in dumb
despair ut the hard-featured farmer as
he sat in his easy chair by the sunny
window, George plucked up courage to
ask:
"And is my poverty the only thing
you have to owning me as son-in-
law?"
"That's about the long and short Of
it, my boy" was the prompt reply.
81 had to make nest before l caught
my bird, and 1 don't quite see why
other men should not do the same"
"Quite right, sir" said the young
man frightening up little, "but may
L ask how wealthy l must be before 1
can propose for Estherp"
Farmer John stroked his chin with
a smile playing about his weather
beaten features, and drawing from his
pocket an envelope which contained
one hundred dollar bill. the price Of
some land which had been sold that
day he displayed the crisp note.
"When you can show 100 greenbacks
like that I'll part with my daughter"
"All right, good bye"
"Where are you going?"
"West."
"God bless you. Good bye"
And so they parted, and so lightly
did the old man think of his harsh
treatment, that listening to the drone
OF the honey bee in the rose tree out
side he fell asleep, his arm resting upon
the window sill, the envelope contain
ing the 800 bill in his hand.
Meanwhile George had hurried to the
trysting-place, down at the style in the
meadow, and had told Esther his story.
When she heard that he was going
far away from her the girl burst into
tears.
esther, Esther, don't cry, can't you
be true to me until come back ?"
81 can and WILL" was the passionate
reply.
'promise it'll"
81 promise it on my life."
The shades Of the summer evening
were closing in as George Stanley stood
at the door of the cottage which had
been his home and held his mother in
his arms.

"Mr. Dana says you are the only
person who knew he had the note III
his possession and that after you had
called upon him he fell asleep, when he
awoke the note was gone"
"Why should he accuse me?" the
young man cried Indignantly.
Because an hour after you left the
farm ysu purchased ticket for Nevada
with 800 bill.
"But the money was mine."
"Ah, but Mr.. Dana has identified the
bill as his. I'm afraid, George, you
must come to the lookup with me un-
til you have an examination"
Like man he faced the disgrace
and was cool and dignifed until he
was dismissed on the following day,
the evidence against him not being Sc
rious enough to condemn him.
SO he went west with heavy heart,
to seek his fortune, knowing that out
of his life long friends Esther and his
mother alone deemed him guiltless of
the CALLING charge against his name and
honor.
A year went around, and it was al
ready the springtime of another, and
Esther prayed day and night for the
welfare of her absent lover. The only
happy moments of her life were when
she sat with the widow Stanley and
talked of George.

GRANT Q WORK.

Presiden. Arthur, for the frat time
since he took the oath e office, does
an open &C. ia favor Of Gen. Grant.
He sent to the Senate the name Of
Oliver Temple as postmaster at
Knoxville, Penn, in place Of Rule.
Rule during tho canvass proceeding
the Chicago Convention was the
most blatant anti-Grant man opening
his mouth. He was Sherman man.
He denounced and abused Gen.
Grant when the Republicans of Ten
uessee were nearly unit for Grant
and kept up bis denunciation of
Grant. When Garfield was inaug-
urated he was petitioned by the Re
publicans of Tennessee to remove
Rule, bu, Sherman's influence with
Garfield was the greater, and be
kept his Role 10 The fact that
President Arthur bounces him is a
good sign Of Grants influence and a
pretty good indication to Sherman
that he need not look further to the
Presidential office for any fsvors or
any mercy when there is a change
to bit him.
