In the Carolina Sand Hills.

columbia Is. c. Corr. Chicago Tlmes.l
A few miles from Columbia is Sec
ton called the Sand Hills. The coun-
try is barren waste, growing nothing
but pine, scrub oak, blackberries and
other natural growth. The inhabitants,
as general thing, are indolent and dis
solute, without a particle of "school
larnin'." Some of our best citizens have
moved from these sand hills to Colum-
bia, become prosperous citizens and
made their mark, but the unmovable in
habitants are as above described. The
women generally wear scant clothing
and the children ditto, while the men are
always shabby and nothing so delights
them as Jug of corn whisky and plug
of tobacco.
Some OF them present the appearance
of clay eaters. In winter they bring, for
ten miles OF more, what they call loads
of oak or pine wood, into the
Columbia market, drawn by skin
tight, bone-protrudipg calf or steer, on a
wagon with two wheels. The animal,
wagon, wood and driver can almost be
carried on his shoulders by one of our
ordinary darkeys. During the cold
weather they beg good deal, but when
the summer comes these people, in their
rags, with whisky in their heads and

Caroline Richings and Her Father.

Music alludes to the injustice once

the adopted Caroline Richings, the
maiden mother of English opera. They
were drawing crowds at NiDlo's Garden
and there used to be hangers about the
door to see her come out, "for she was

Peter Richings walked off with the lit
tie prima donna, and we denounced him
for his meanness in not taking a car
riage. Only the other day | learned
that it was Caroline herself who insisted
upon this economy. Old Peter would
have hired golden chariot for her,
drawn by milk white steeds, but she was
saving, and preferred to walk. One
evening, they were playing some show
piece that ended with an apotheosis.
Peter RichinSs was to be discovered
amid the clouds holding Caroline in his
embrace. The stage was set behind the
carpenter scene. Peter had mounted
upon the old dry goods box that elevated
him above the set rows. Caroline was
climbing upon a smaller box beside him.
The other characters began to push for
ward and form groups upon the stage.
This was not Peters idea of an apotheo-
sis. He did not want anybody else to
share the Richings giories. So, waving
his hand dignifiedly, he shouted in his
husky, muffled voice this curious speech.
