In the CLEANING.


Twas but a maiden, scarcely turned fourteen.
Before me on the busy thoroughfarei
Becoming garments hid her pretty form.
And down her back In masses hung her hair
less graceful is the panther's stately tread
Thro' labyrinthian Jungle OF wild ferns
She seemed to draw me 10 her as the steel
Unto the magnet unreslsting turns.
With slackened pace fingered close behind.
Her every movement followed BY my heart
And, all unconscious OF her woman's sway.
All, Innocence she piled her woman's AM.
Her dainty feet tripped on with scarce a sound :;
Her ankles swelled to beauty unreyealed.
Lost In a wondrous maze OF draping skirts
That half suggested what they half concealed
No tense impassioned arm eter closer held
Adear ones loving, unresisting form,
And stlll more closely, as new rapures thrilled
And iercer frenzies sluged In quenchless
swarm.
fhan Ger her budding, nearly ripened breast,
And shoulders round as Paris Helene,
Was drawn her iannty, perfeet-httlng basque,
A splendid thing OF 1eecy, siIken sheen.
Then suddenly there came a glare OF light
From out a room where sundry lemonades
Went tricdlng down fierce Threats by thirst de-
ranged
That hair was wool Her face-an nee Of
spades. Chicago Ne'os.

Some twenty couples, consisting mostly
of employees of the Union Pacific railway,
took an engine and car on Friday night
and made a trip to Colorado Junction, to
attend a party held there. Nelson Ony
oficiated as conductor and under his man
agement the journey was safely accom-
plished. The party was a success,
and the company, in addition to the
pleasure of tripping the light fantastic,
enjoyed the refreshments, solid and liquid,
which we're donated to their use. They

periods of our history, was proud to be

OUR CAMPAIGN MEETING.

We are sorry to hear that there are
some of our people who do not take an
interest in the success Of the campaign
meeting ut this place on the 9TH inst.
If that Indifference arises from n too
great sense Of security it is WI
those who entertain it to disabusN
minds Of the error. The republicans
have a state ticket in the field, and it Is
evident from the tonc of discussion in
their convention that the negroes are
alive to the importance Of making II
fight for state officers if they desire to
keep their party organization intact.
Moreover, it, is necessary that the up
country poll its full democratic vote to
countcract the very heavy majoritics OF
the republicans in the lower counties.
.i.ukewarmncss on u part may impcril
the success Of our electoral ticket and
thereby the success of our national can
didatcs. 1t is an assured fact that John
II. Tolbcrt desires to run for Congress
against Col. Aiken. He can scarcely
entertain a hope Of election. But it be-
hoovcs us to bury his aspirations under
a majority for Aiken sufficient to pre-
vent a vcxatious contest for his seat.
II this indifference proceeds from any
other feeling than that we have spoken
of, it is unworthy our people and our
county. Already Pickcns, Oconcc and
Anderson have had grand and cnthusi-
astic meetings, and Ncwbcrry will follow
suit on the Sd inst. We cannot afford
to be behind our sister counties. Nor
will We. The success Of the meeting is
assured. The executive committee arc
working with indcfatigablc zeal to this
end, and their arrangements are nearly
complete for the biggest and most inter
esting meeting held in Abbcvillc since
the memorable "Big Tuesday" in '76
Between one thousand and fifteen hun
dred mounted men, in rcd shirts, will be
in line. The committee have good
reason to believe that Senator Eanc will
be present, together with Senator Hamp.
ton. Gov. Thompson, and other dis
tinguishcd speakers. Arrangements arc
being made to furnish n barbecue free tc
all who come. So shake off your leth.
argy, don the red. shirt, and be prescn,
on the 7th, that the moral force Of GU,
meeting may be sufficiently great to dc.
stroy any secret hope our enemies may
entertain Of success
