SOUTHERN alvER TRAVEL.

For certain sort Of daredevil, blow-up-
as.you-go air, this river steamers that run on
tho Savannah bear the palm. These little
craft penetrate as far up the river as
Augusta, 1876 miles distant They are stern
wheelers, with open decks, fiat bottom, and
akin to the traditional steamer that ran on
heavy dew. When loaded the floor OF the
lower deck is almost fnsh with the water.
About IN hour before the time of departure
Of these steamers crowd begins to gather
at the landing. The majority are negroes,
but there are several whtes-expectan
passengers and curious sght-seers among
them. The narrow gang-plank leading to
the steamer is canted at an angle OF forty
Ave degrees, the bank being perhaps twenty
feet above the river. Down this plane the
deck hands wheel on board the freight, mis-
selaneous bags, boxes, crates aud barrels,
stoves and other hardware, furniture, hay
and grain, for all these things the Georgians
import. At length q half-dozen mules,
which have been awaiting their turn, are
reached, and the crowd press forward as II
expecting something. Ten stout, able
bodied deck bands are assigned to one mule,
and the sport begins. Four seize the rope
attached to his halter, two tackle him under
the ribs with riding whips to make him
climber up" and four push from behind.
The mule plants his fore feet firmly, but
with this force is fairly slid down the plank
and on board, amid the paudi@ of the by
ISLANDERS. After the freight b loaded the
passengers go on board. Tksy are all ma
tives, tourists rarely travelling by this con-
veyance, and quite interesting as studies.
There is a fulfilled, complaceDt old planter,
who will get off at some up-river landing
and ride to fine old country mansion be-
tween rows of live oaks draped with moss |;

pErER THE GREAT.

Petor the Great is a many-sided figure,
and such huge one that to view him from
oil points would involve the making of a
very considerable circuit. It would be easy
to show that he was coarse sensualist, and
he had undoubtedly r'auy of the tastes of a
mere barbarian. lie drank to excess, aud
delighted in such practical jokes as serving
up live rats and mice in pie-dish covered
over with the usual paste. When he was in
England, his favorite exercise consisted in
charging with wheelbarrow trimly-cui
quickest hedge, which had at one time
formed the joy of Its garden-loving proprie-
tor. He not only sentenced to death, but
apparently himself killed tho disaffected son,
whom he had thrown into prison, and who
persisted there. *ess. - xes4

Sweet the exultance OF song, but the strain that
precedes it Is sweeter-
And never was poem vet writ, but the meaning

Never daisy that grows, but mystery guideth

Never river that flows, but a majesty sceptres

Never Shakespeare that SCARED, but stronger

And never a prophet foretells, but mightler

Back OF the canvas that throbs the painter is

Into the statue that breathes the soul OF the

Under the joy that is felt lie the infinite tissues
OF feeling
Growing the glory revealed Is the glory that
crowns the revealing
Great are the symbols of being, hut that which,
symboled is greater;
Vast the create and beheld; but vaster the inward
creator;
Back OF the sound broods the silence, back OF the

Back OF the hand that receives thrill the sensitive
nerves OF receiving.

Twin voices and shadows swim starward, aid

And his wife went away, too angry to cry,
and Indignantly questioning herself why she

All day long an armed neutrality pervaded

He hurried along to meet the little cort<ge,
now scarcely visible down the darkening
road. Mrs. Eden ran up to her husband,
and threw her arms around his neck.
" Joshua ?" she cried; "Oh, Joshua,
forgive me- never meant it. I loved the
poor darling all the while. Oh, Rosa, my
little Rosa |"
"Don't fret, wife" huskily whispered the
farmer at amt Your fault You did all
you could for her."
He put his arm tenderly around his wife's
waist as he spoke.
"Whatever it is, Sarah" he said, bravely,
"we'll bear it together"
AT the same instant as it seemed, light
foot-step foated, like thistle.down, on the
threshold a little figure ran up to them,
and clasped them within one embrace
