SHE jumped up, then her hand on her beat

She had felt the black light of his presence,
though he was invisible! He in the studio,
and had been from the first! He had, perhaps,
even looked from the doorway, as she had fam
cied. She trembled as if at the presence of a
ghost, and feared to see him.
But where was he? Must she look in every
nook and corner? Should she call him out
loud? Hungry for him as she was, she could
not yet do that; her heart beat too fast. Yet
she longed to tear the mystery open, let in the
light again,-the old-fashioned sunlight of his
actual visible presence,-and break into tears

on tiptoe now, if she guilty of some
crime in being there threw herself on the divan,

Newberry, July 22.-Magistrate j.
H. Chappell, of this city had an un-
usual case before his court day or
two ago. Mason Bearden, a white
man, was charged with larceny
stealing SIS from his wife, and he
pleaded guilty to the charge. Mrs.
Bearden works in the Newberry cot

hours she went home and placed her
money on the mantel-piece, going
