There were four apples on the hough, s Half sold, hull red, that one might know The blood wh ripe inside the oorc; The color oi the loaves was more Like stems of yellow corn that grow Through all the sold Jane meaaow floor. The warm smell or the fruit was good To feed on, and the split green wood With all its bearded lips and stains Of mosses in the clover veins. Most pleasant, if one lay or stood In sunshine or in happy rains. There were four apples on the tree Bod stained through srold, that all might see The sun went warm trom core to rind; The green leaves made the summer blind In that sod plaoe they kept for me With golden apples shut behind. The leaves caupht gold across the sun, And wheie the bluest air begun, Thirsted for sang to help the beat; As I to feel my lady's teet Draw close belore the day wore done: Both lips grow dry with dreams of it. In the mute August afternoon . They trembled to some undortune Of mu9ic on the silver air; (Jreat pleasure was it to be there . Till preen turned duskier, and the moon Colored the corn sheaves like gold hair. That August tini it was delight To watch the re1 moons wane to whit Twixt nrey-bcam3d stems of appb trees; A sense of heavy harmonics Grew oa the growth of patient night, More sweet than shapen music is. But some three hours be'ore the moon The air. still eager Irom tho noon, Flageed alter heat, not wholly dead; Against the tem I ban my head; The color soothed me like a tune, Green leaves all round the gold and red. I lay there till the warm smell grew More sharp, when flecks ot yellow dew Between the round ripe leaves had blurred The rind with stain and wet; I heard A wind that blew and breathed and blew Too weak to alter its one word. The wet leaves next the gentle iruit Felt smoother, and the brown tree root Felt the mould warmer; I too felt (As the water feels the slow gold melt Right through it when the day burns mute), The peace ot time wherein love dwelt. There were four apples on the tree, Gold stained on red that all might see The sweet blood filled them to the core; The color ol her hair is more Like stems of fair faint cold, tbut be Mown from the harvest's middle floor. Mississippi Slander Suit. Two Women Arrayed Against Each OlhrA touching Scene in a Court JioomUow it Xer mrnated. The Macon (Miss.) Beacon recites the follow ing interesting story. Its incidents attest the worth and nobleness of a true woman's char acter and iiiBtincts: In the County Cnurt last week, the case of the State against Sultana Alden for slander, ex cited as much interest as any that has ever ori ginated in this county. Ibe defendant, Mrs. Allen, Is an old respectable widow lady. Miss Eliza McGowan, the lady against whose charac ter the slander was charged to have been ut tered, is a young laoy of good lamily and un blemished character, an orphan residing with her sister. Mrs. A'len'e plea was ''not guilty," and "justification." The examination of witnesses assumed the broadest latitude. Miss McUowan's conduct through life, from childuood to the dav of the alleged slander, was made the subject of Inquiry. Nearly the entire neighboihood in which the parties reside were present as witnesses lor one side or the other. The case, without any charges from the Court, was submitted to the jury, and the question of the guilt or innocence of the defendant left to their determination. In a short time they returned a verdict of "guilty." Five of the jury, on account of the age and infirm condition of Mrs. Allen, the defendant, recommended her to the mercy of toe Court. Alter some consultation on the bench, Judge McLelland, the Chief Justice of the Court, tuned to the prisoner and in substance said: "Mrs. Allen, you have been presented belore this Court on a charge of slander, of wilfully traducir.fr the character ol an innocent, defense less young lady of your neighborhojd. In your defense, the Court perhaps erred in permitting you the latitude ot investigation into the charac ter and conduct of Miss McGowan, which you, under the advice of your counsel, thought neces sary lor your defense. "If we erred in this it was on the side of mercy, and we are content. The result of all your in vestigation has been a full vindication of the chaiacter of the young lady whose conduct you have impugned, and while this is a most happy result lor her, it is most unfortunate lor you. The jury selected by you to try your case have declared you guilty ol the matters charged in the indictment, and it now becomes the unplea sant duty ot this Court to impose the sentence of the law upon you. In determining the pun ishment to be inflicted, the Court has taken into consideration your sex, your age, and the recom mendation ot a portion of the jury who sat upon your rase, and we have, in consequence of these things, made your punishment much lighter than under dinerent circumstances your crime deserves. The sentence of the Court is that you he fined in the sum of five hundred dollars, and be imprisoned in the county (all for the term of six months." When- this sentence was pronounced Miss McGowan burst into tears. She asked her coun sel if it was nece8snrv for the complete vindica tion of her character that Mn. Allen should be really and actually imprisoned in the county lalhaud when informed that the verdict of the Jury was a full and complete vindication of her character, she desired the Court to remit the punishment. She said she had no viudictive feelings against her criminal accuser; that having no other protector; she had appealed to this Court, and that now by its ludgment she was fully protected from all further calumny, she prayed the Court through her counsel to have mercy upon the unfortunate being who had just peen sentenced. When Miss McGowan's request was made known to the Court, there was a stillness, a solemnity, a aeptn ot feeling seldom, 11 ever, -witnessed in a court of Justice. There s it the young innocent and Injured girl, pleadin? for mercy for that old woman who had sought, by her elanderous tongue at home, and the course of her deleae in Court, lo blacken and forever tuin her reputation, the only patrlmonv left her by her dead father and mother. Such magnani mity is almost oejona Dunian conception. The Court, the bar, the aufieuce, were moved to silence, and not a few to tears tor some mo ments the stillness of death pervaded the assem blv. The Juderes were moved bv tho petition ot the young lady, and the tine and imprisonment were remitted. CIGARS AND TOBACCO. A HINT TO TOBACCO CIIEWERS WEDDING-CAKE FINE TOBACCO.
