In the good old days of feseues, abs
selfas, and anpersants, terms which used
10 be familiar in this country during the
Revolutionary war, And which fingered
in some of our country schools for few
years afterwards, l visited my friend
Captain Griffen, who resided about seven
miles to the eastward of Wrightsborough
then in Richmond, but now in Columbia,
county. l reached the captains hospi-
table home on Easter, and was received
by him and his good lady with Georgia
welcome of 1880. 1t was warm from the
heart, and taught me In moment that
the obligations of the visit were upon
their side, not mine. Such receptions
were not peculiar at that time to the cap
tain and his family; they were common
throughout the state. Where are they
now? And where the generous hospitali-
ties which invariably followed them? I
sec them occasionally at the contented
farmers door and at his festive board,
bur when they shall have taken leave
o. these Georgia will know them no more.
The day was consumed In the inter-
change of news between the captain and
myself (though l confess, it might have
been better employed, and the night
found US seated round a temporary fire
which the captains sons had kindled up
for the purpose OF dyeing eggs. It was
a common custom of those days for boys
to dye and peck eggs ON Easter Sunday
and for few days afterwards. They
were colored according to the fancy of
the dyer-some yellow, some green, some
purple, and some with a variety OF colors
borrowed from a piece of calico. They
were not unfrequently beautified with a
taste and skill which would have extorted
a compliment from Hezekiah Niles if he
had seen them year ago in the hands of
the 'young operatives in some of the
northern manufactures. No sooner was
the work of dying finished than the
young operatives" sailed forth to stake
the whole proceeds of their domestic in
dustry" upon a peck. Egg was struck
against egg, point to point, and the egg
that was broken was given up as lost to
the owner of the one which came whole
from the shock

Michaels head grew easy, his limbs, by
natural sympathy. became more quiet,
and he offered one days holiday as the
price. The boys demanded a week; but
here the captain interposed, and, after
the common. but often unjust custom of
arbitrators, split the difference. In this
instance the terms were equitable enough
and were Immediately acceded to by both
parties. Michael rose in a good humor,
and the boys were, of course. Loud was
their talking of their deeds of valor as
they retired. One little fellow about
years old and about three feet and half
high jumped up, cracked his feet together
and exclaimed, by lingo, Pete Jones,

are to be credited with at least one good
work. They are held responsible for the
marked diminution in the activities of
those other scourges Of the island bril-
gand bands. Their depredations have
become much less frequent, and it is
stated that whole bands of brigands have
disappeared. There are at present only
a few groups of brigands or lone des-
peradoes who belonged to bands that
have been broken up. Even the careers
of those are expected to be brief.
Neither the police nor the carabineers
are to be thanked for this relief. What
has happened is that the all-powerful
Malta and black hand have Joined In
suppressing brigandage. THE Malta de-
sire no rivals is the significant reason
given for their action.

dered among the dwarf pines and cropped
a scanty meal from the vale where the
rich cane bowed and rustled to every
breeze, and all around was barren dreary

AS | before remarked, the boys had
strongly fortified the school house of
which they had taken possession. The
door was barricaded with logs. which l
should have supposed would have defied
the combined powers of the whole school.
Tho chimney, too, was nearly filled with
logs of goodly size, and these were the
only passways to the interior. I con-
cluded, IL a turnout was all that was
necessary to decide the contest In favor
OF the boys, they had already gained the
victory. They had, however, not as
much confidence in their outworks as
had, and therefore had armed them
selves with long sticks; not for the pur-
pose of using them upon the master II

but for the purpose of guarding their
works from his approaches, which it was
considered perfectly lawful to protect by

of the girls. 1t was very obvious that
they had been let into the conspiracy.
