THE DELINQUENT.

One dav last week, while sad and dreary,
As we wended, weak and weary.
Across the unswept floor;
We heard, at first, gentle tapping,
Then it became an earnest rapplng,
At our sanctum door.
Come imp we said while yet we pom
dered,
And IN silence we still wondered
What for US could be in store;
Then, the door bolt gently turning,
In he walked. Our cheek was burning
At thoughts Of crimson gore.
care you The man that does the writing p
(What word will rhyme with this but
fighting?
Quickly thought we DER and oer)
"Sir, we are" we gently told him,
Nod'lng TO the boys to hol,i in
If he tried TO beat US sore.
"Then you'll please give me aecredit
Opposite that little debit,
For two dollars more.
l like your paper, and will lake it
As long as you will strive 10 make it
AS good as it has been before"
We jumped he lodged thus we missed
him,
Or we surely would have kissed him.
No matter if the boys did roar:
So seldom treated in this manner,
We felt inclined to sing hosannah
Only this and nothing more.

Ex-Governor BOnham.

On last Wednesday night, at the
Davenport House, Toccoa, we TOOK
a look at the register before going to
bed, and saw in large business
hand the name of NJ. L. Bonham,
Columbia, S. C. We wondered if it
Was our OLD friend Gov. Bonham, or
one OF his grand sons. We always
arise early, and on entering the hall
next morning we saw a gentleman az
straight as an arrow. with the o'd
military carriage Of General, and
snow white beard. 1t was our old
friend Milledge, whom we voted Tor
as Major.General Of Cavalry when
we were only l6 years old. In those
days South Carolina was truly
military State. Only certainEnum.
Der Of cavalry was allowed. I rode
IA miles to muster in cavalry before
I was Of the age required By law,
ar' then they could not transfer me
to infantry. l attended campmus'
ters undersBonham, at one of which
he and Gen. Fred. Garvin were CON-
sidered the best riders on the en-
campment, and in trying to speed
their hors ,s Gen. .Garvin was thro own
and seemed tosbe "dead as idoor
nail; The Brigade Surgeon could
do nothing for him, and Bonham said
to Aiken, who was thenTGovernor,
"By G., unless WEI. can stimulate
him he will never. come to. Get a
bottle of that old brandy" A SER
want soon brought it, and Bonham,
not waiting for corkscrew, broke
the neck of the bottle with a horse
pistol, filled tumbler thre e-fourths
full of mellow 20.year old brandy
forced Garvin's mouth open and
poure it down him. In half an
hour the old fellow was laughing and
cracking jokes. Those were glorious
days and one year Of life then was
worth score in these degenerate
days, and I hope to meet lots of those
boys in that better land, even if they
did horse race and drink a little
Liquor in "ye olden days." OLD B.
