And sadly he talked of blcssedness gone-—

Pdigoy Bread '1-,.,,y,_,, and C,,,.,,,,,.,,’ Pockc, Rules and He said he cared not, so tlicy'd let him sleep on,

Slowlv and sadly we all walked down-

'\Vc vowed that his case should ne’er be our own,

THE OLD BACHELOR.
Not ii laugh was there, nor the sign of a smile,
As our friend to the bridal was hurried; ‘
We thought oftlie pain he would Slllliil‘ the while,
For he looked so confoundedly flurried.
“/0 saw him stand up, and we pitied him too,
As the parson the dread knot was tying;
Hetremblicd so much, and his pliiz was so blue, ,
I hat we feared the poor fellow was dying.
WW2 escorted him home that bright siimmer’s eve,
When pale from.liis bridal rclurning—-
VVe spoke but few words, and most soiely did grieve,
A bachelor had no more discerning.

The fellow’s as mad as the devil, we said,

He knew that v c said it in sorrow--

We clieert-d him, but sighed to iliiiik that his head
VVould wofully ache on the iiiorrow.

And who would have thought that one like him,
So shy of the girls had we found him,

Would ever have had his eye sight so dim

.As to fall in ilie noose that bound him!

7

Twas sad to us all as sadness could be,
That advice in vain we’d been giving,
That instead of_confined he might have been free

We cheered the poor fellow as well 113 we could,
And thought he was surely icpentiiig;

But now ’twas too late——he could not, it" he would,
50 he gave up all thoughts of rclentiiig.

We carried him home, and put him to rest,

And the tears fell fast as we did it;

tear fell from him, we know ’t\vas no jest,
Tliougli he thought that his sad smile hid it.

A

How each bachelor now would upbraid him ; ’

’Neuth the counterpane just as we laid him.
From his room in the uppermost story ;

Whom weleft, not alone, in his glory.

feelings of aversioii and hatred, or of open
and manly disuiiion, were silently nourished
or boldly avowed. , .
Such characters were numerous in a
southern district of South Carolina, which
lies very near the beautiful river that sepa-
rates it from Georgia. The year 1780 was
one of gloom and sorrow to the hearts
of its patriots:-—Cliarleston was in posses-
sion of the British; the whole State at the
mercy of the Royalists, mid the gallant
spirits who had thrown life and property
‘into the perilous stakes, were generally 0-
bligcd to abandon the one and seek safety
for the other in the depth of their swamps
and the solitudes of their pinebarreiis.
There were some, however, who still re-
mained nt their lioines, and in bitterness of
heart, tried, by a voluntary. retirelmen-t, to
avoid the expression of feeling which ‘could
only bring ruin to their helpless families.
Among this class was a planter whose
name was P —, he possessed a fine es-
tate on one of the narrow and winding
: streams which empty,irito the Broad Rive!‘-
He was young, intelligent, ardent and en-
thusiastic, and devoted to the cause in \VlI1lCl'l
his country was strugglintr. Such 8 cm‘
meter was exactly czilciilotcd to secure
strong friendships and excite Stmllg emlq‘

It was in 1800, that with the bride of’

brown locks which Mary used to entwine

gers, were ringlets, still, but silver ones, yet
still as carefully arranged by the same kind
liand, for she was living too, and enjoying
with him a green old age. I became a fa-
