;. PloNIc ON THE BRoAD.--A CORES
pondent writes: .,tOn Wednesday
last, July 18TH, a crowd. of old and
young repaired to Broad River to hpve
picnic. Who can dcscribe the feel
ings Of those who gazed in rapture on,
not only one Of the greatest wonders,
but beauties, of our little State, fol.
the first time. ladies are good for a
great many things, and especially ;fQ;'
laughing, talking and entertaining
bachelors; and con cook all right, yet
some of them sigh, 'Ohl that 1 could
fry fish and make soup like Mann.'
# our table, mother EARTH had
.groaned beneath the load of dclicacies,
no one could have been surprised, yet
I fear the the spot would have been
abandoned forthwith,, but with scarce
ly less haste than when light shower
you can. imagine that
which is not portrayed, when l say the
sladies, dear souls, were fearful ABOUT
their. bats. The shower over, every
boy took his girl, and went down to
the landing, where all, except a few
whose parents positively forbid their
doing 90, took a boat ride. Returning
to our vehicles, preparatory to going
homo, many pretty things were gath
cred, chief ahiong (which were moss
and wild oats. With many, a weary
yet tender look ut the. broad expanse
of water, we bid fond farewell to the
shady nook, at tho. rivers brink, and
returned home in the cleaning, en-
joying the many jests and songs by the.
way"
