Stop, soldier, stop! this cruel act
Will ring through all the land;
Shame on thc heart that planned thisdoed!
Shame on tho coward hand,
That drops tho sword of justice bright
To grasp those iron rings!
On them, not mc, dishonor falls,
To them this dark shame chugs.
Manacled! O mv God! my God!
Is this a Christian land?
And did our countries ever meet
And grasp each other s hand?
O Mexico! on thy red fields
I battled 'midst the fray;
M>i riflemen, with stoady aim,
Won Buena Vista's day.
Manacled! far down the South
Let this ono wUrd speed fast.
My country, thou hast borne great wrongs;
But this, tho last, the last,
Will sond a thrill through thy high heart.
Despair will spurn control,
And these hard irons pressing here.
Will enter thy proud Boab
Manacled! O word of shame!
Bing it through all the world!
My countrymen, on you, on you,
"This heavy wrong is hurled.
Wo flung our banners to the air;
We fought as brave men fight;
Our battle-cry lang through the land;
Home! liber?-! and right!
Manacled! For this I am hore,
Clanking tho prisoner's chain.
Wo fought- ah! nobly did we tight;
We fought, but fought in vain.
Down in that biUowy sea of blood
Went all our jewels rare;
Aud Hope rushed wailing from the scene
And took herself to prayer.
Manacled! manacled! words of woe,
But words of greater shame;
I've that within me which these wrongs
Can never, never tame;
And standing proud in conscious worth,
I represent my land.
And that "Lost Cause" for which she bled
Lofty, heroic, grand!
[Sumter Watchman.
THE "GREAT* DROUGHT
CHAPTER IV.
In that time of trouble and unex
ampled events, the mind received im
pressions iu a different manner fron
what it had ever done before. Th*
stern gloom that hung over the future
the hazard upon which life was sus
pended, the close contact with uni
versal death, and the desperate strug
gie by which it was staved off, gav.
to all things a new character; and th
scene of the last chapter was but ou
of the series of deadly and dreadfn
excitements which were now the habi
of every day. The solemn frame o
mind which it induced in Ellen wa
of a piece with the solemn nature o
their existence; aud she could talk o
it with her husband at any time, am
not disturb the natural lieut whicl
their conversation took. The;
searched the neighborhood for th
habitation of the unhappy mothe
and her family; and the marks of he
footsteps on the dust of the soil ena
bled thorn to trace her to Hope, a vii
l?ge in the plain, two miles, or rathe
more, from the Peak. She and he
husband had used the church io
their habitation, and, it seemed, ha
employed the same kind of preenu
tioii as Paulett to defend it, and con
coal that it was their dwelling.
One entrance only was left, and th
other apertures blocked up; but a
care was useless now, for death ha
set them free from pain and fear. O
a bed, beside thc altar, lay the bod
of a man, over which was spread
cloak of fur and velvet, which, in th
life-time of the world, would hav
been most precious. His eyes wei
decently closed, the curtains of th
bed drawn round him, and the pillo
which supported bis head was marke
with the pressure of another beac
and with moisture, which could hal
been only the tears of his wife. Th
floor of the church was in confusioi
like the dwelling of one too much di
tracted with troubles to attend t
what did not relate to it; but thei
was corn, which had served for foot
and fuel, heaped on a stone whic
had been a hearth- there was a drat
ing of a woman and a beautiful plac
but these were cast into acorner, pr
bably by theirritable handof despai
On a table, stood empty cups, whit
ha<l long, perhaps, been dry; tl
glass of one had been shivered, ai
the fragmenta lay on tho floor; the
were also a few books, neglected ai
covered with dust. In the churc
yard were the mai-ks of three rece
graves; ono of them had a stone
its head, on which which was carve
with care, the name of Alfred, ai
the soil was fenced and support
with sticks, so as to preservo its sha
over the body-probably it was th
of the first child, whom the paret:
had committed to the dust. Alioth
was more hastily prepared, and :
superfluous labor had been bestow
on it. This must be the last, wh
heart and health were both failin
Paulett aud Ellen kneeled and pray
beside them, and rejoiced that t
mother, too, was at rest, after t
long misery of tips scene. They i
turned to the cave, and, under t
shadow of the rock, near tho ?
course of the brook,.laid both moth
and child, covering their bodies wi
stones, and, thinking moro of t
probable re-union, in some unknoi
scene, of the spirits of that famil
than of the distauco which separat
their graves on this earth.
And now, with a good store of d
monds, and with increasing skill ai
success in the resolution of them ir
water, both Paulett and Ellen look
upon the lives of all as safe for t
present, and their thoughts were
liberty to wander to somo other sr
ject. They believed that they a
their children were alone in t
world; for every sign of life fr<
other countries, as well as their ov.
had ceased. It was very long sir
any human tidings had come; a
though, after men had done with
each other, birds continued their mi?
grations, theso had now long been
over, and tho years passed away
without bringing as sending a single
wing. The course of the seasons,
too, was strange and unnatural. It
seemed as if the earth performed its
usual course in tho heavens, and kept
its place and functions in the move?
ments of the planets; days and nights
varied in their length according to
thc season, and the heat of tho sun
was at one time of the year great, and
at another weak; but much that de?
pended hitherto on the constitution
of the globe was suspended. There
wero no clouds in the sky, no dews
dropping from the air, no reproduc?
tion in the earth. It seemed decayed,
and dying of old age. Yet Paulett
said a new existence would, perhaps,
arise on this same scene, and from
these same elements. Once before
the earth had been reduced to eight
persons by the action of water; and
now the absenco of the same element
had brought it to four. Charles and
Alice might be the destined parents
of a new race, and those names that
were so familiar now might become
the venerable appellation of tho
founders of the third race of man.
Ellen smiled and shook her head,
looking at the boy and girl, who were
building a house of pebbles; and both
parents listened for a while to what
they were saying. Charles recollect?
ed the house he had dwelt in before
the great shipwreck of human life
drove them to the cavern ; and ho
was teaching Alice that there were
rooms below and rooms above, and
that he had heard how people like
their father had carried great stones,
and put them one on another to make
these rooms. Alice persisted in
making her house one hollow ca?
vern, and the other she called Charles
house, and did not understand his
recommendation.
"Charles is taking the part already
of a teacher, in whom remains thc
traditionary knowledge of an old
world," said Paulett; "and Alice rep
resents the new inhabitants, who have
their own rude copies of natural ob?
jects, but who will be open to th?
training of the learned man."
"The learned mau will be theil
father," said Ellen. "They wil
gladly take their notions from him.'
"Yes; but if it should be so des
tined, the first generation must wort
hard, merely to live-they must bi
very long ignorant of everything ex
cept a paternal government and sud
habitations as can be raised or appro
propriated most easily. They will Ix
children in comparison to Charles al
their lives, if we can but succeed ii
giving him the ideas of the age ii
which we have lived. Fancy, then
Ellen, increased to perhaps fifty in
habitants before he dies, a very oh
man coming round his chair to hea:
of the wonderful steam engine, am
the use of the telescope, and to lean
the art of printing, and the hst of tin
different languages, which Homans
Frenchmen, Germans, Greeks used
and what lions wore, and horses."
"Or tell them how ho and Alio
escaped from the great drought,'
said Ellen. "But, alas! it is far mon
likely he and she will perish in it
and, then, of what use is this know?
ledge to him?"
,;\Vhy-his soul. 'It is a thin;
immortal like thyself;' and if wha
ho knows is of no use bert1, it will b
useful elsewhere."
"What!" said Ellen, smiling; "ar
there railroads and telescopes in un
other world?"
"For aught I can tell. At al
events, tho powers that contrive then
here may contrive something fron
the same principles hereafter."
"But we can tell nothing about th
other world," said Ellen.
"Nay, this is (motlier world to th
stars; and if we know nothing aWon
our destiny, the only way we have t<
judge is by what we actully arc, an>
tend to be now. So, while life r<
mains, I will teach my boy all
know, "and go on as a man of thi
world ought to do; then we shall h
ready for everything."
Accordingly, Paulett every day cai
ried on Iiis son's education, as far u
the boy's age permitted, and instruct
ed him in all that he would hav
learned had the world been as it wi
formerly. Only like a man in shij
wreck, looking forward to a desei
island as his best hope, lie dwelt nu?
upon what would bc most usefn
supposing Charles (being pr?serv?e
to have to provide for the physic;
necessities of a new race of mai
Next in order came science and art
and it was easier to make him fei
the merits of these than of the e:
ploits of man, especially when tho
consisted of valor and of the deer
of conquerors; for the heroic virtui
seemed to take a new character in til
present circumstances of the work
and whereas they used to blaze i
personal danger, and at the sonn
and applause of men, they no
burned brightly in tho endurance <
the world's dissolution, which, wit
all its terrors and prolonged impre
sinus, must be met by the calm, sci
sustaining spirit rising superior to tl
greatest excess of physical injur
Tho boy's soul replied to the c:i
upon it. He learned to look on ti
dangers before him, and to consid?
the possibility of escape with qui<
calculation of chances. He inure
himself to privation readily, an
eagerly tried to spare his mother an
Alice from it. He and Iiis fathe
hand in hand, walked over the des?
late land, realizing the idea that thc
were in fact spirits, superior to a
physical things, and divided froi
spirits and their sphere only by their
frail connexion with a body. They
talked of virtue und duty, and how
good it was to dwell in these .painful
bodies, since they were the place
wherein virtue was practiced and
duty Learned; und the father taught
thc son that the opportunities oc?
curred, not only in enduring the dis?
solution of the frame of present
things, und in the untiring exertion
to aid and support life in those who
were of weaker sex than they; but in
ubiding, with even and cheerful tem?
per, the vexations of every day, and
in adorning as far as possible, as well
as preserving life. Thc mother was
heroic, good and patient, too. She
brought lier children, night and
morning, to tho mouth of the cavern,
and there they all kneeled by Paulett,
who prayed aloud with them and for
them. Then Ellen made ready their
meal, which must all bo prepared
without water, and which consisted
of the stores from former harvest?, of
which there was abundance laid up in
various houses; and the little Alice,
who conltl run at ber mother's side,
learned to be useful in some matters,
and patient and obedient. Charles
played with her and taught her; and
ho himself, mere child as ho was,
grew merry in his play and earnest ;
and many a time the profound silence
of the oarth was broken by the hearty
laugh of children, which would ring
out through tho cavern and revorbe- j
rate against its walls. They grew, |
and were perfect and beautiful in |
shape; their minds developed, and
talents and virtues lilied them. They j
were types of man and woman-the j
one bold and protecting, tho other
seeking for affection and defence, j
They flourished when means ap- |
peared inadecpiato to their support; j
and amid a paralyzed world, it was i
in them ouly that body and spirit
seemed to unfold.
