Sixteen miles west 1'roillAugusta,
"
Ga., crowning a slight entnence on
the north side anddistaut,oossiblv,
forty rods from the trail of the
Georgia railroad, is a; mode, white
washed cottage nestling iui brush
wood of oak and piue. Xi other
h diitation is within) sight o.' it.
The' monotone ot the breeze "tough
ing in the tops of the tallest 'pines
oftJie forest on the south siie of
the road, is only varied by theteca
sional whistle, roar and clatter of
passing trains. Although then is
no station house, nor even side-track
' i
here, the Harlem accommodatbn,
otherwise known as i he "PicayuiM,"
on its afternoon run trom Augusta,
is observed to sto opposite tie
foot of a path leading down t'roii
the cottage, where is standing i
slender inan'under a straw sombro
ro, with a rifle in hand, held in the
position of "ground arms." The
baggage-master hands out a pack
age to the man, who, as the train I
moves On, turns into the footpath,
with his face toward the little house
at its other end. We will consti
tute: ourselves, the j reader and the
writer, detectives! step from the
moving car and follow this denizen
of the wild wood to his hiding-place
We might pass him, even in this
narrow walk, with a chance of es
caping his observation, for a wrap
per from some magazine has fallen
in our way, and he is engrossed in
the hitter's table of contents. From
the wrapper which 'we pick up we
get thu name of our highwayman;
the address is Paul II. Hayne. So
itisabard, and uot a, bandit, we
have been pttrsuilig, and so aiiniable
a bard, too, that even in tlie wood
land solitude of ".Corpse Hill"', we
may further follow this path, .tra
versed by lew without a pass from
Koderick Dim."'
It is out of such secpiestration
that the writings of Pa' id H. Hayne
for fourteen years have conic. A
descendant from along line of noted
ancestry in South Carolina, the
young poet had inherited comfor
table wealth, a charming home in
Charleston funning part of his es-j
tate. A shell during the bombanb
inent of the city in 1804 selecting
the Hayne residence for its place of
frery explosion, and the eventua
tions ofyvar syveeping away yvhat
ejver else he possessed, he found
himself in 1SU5 cunt routed by polit

moralization of business, Mr. ll.yne
made ipiest for some spot '-far from'
the maildingcrowd's ignoble strife,"
where he might indulge his muse,
and drink in health and h ippiness
from country air and domestic
quiet.
I shall ever recall with peculiar
pleasure a visit to Corpse Hill when
"Will," the poet's only child, now a
voung man, was a lad of twelve siiiu-
. i .
niers. I was residing for the spring
months at Iierzlelia, twenty miles
from Augusta,' trusting to the
wholesome atmosphere to bring a
bloom of health to Ihe cheeks of my
baby oiii. ()n one of my, return
trips from the city on .the "Pica
yune,'' an engagement was made at
tiie door of the baggage-car with Mr.
Hayne, that my wife aiid 1 should
call. It was early in the after
noon of a fair day' of .as' fair a June
as 'ever introduced springtime, to
summer, that we alighted from our
. little-carriage at the wooden-latched,
rustic gate, op-ning into a small
Slower garden fronting the house
; i the rock-bordered beds on eithei
side of the white, sanded walk,
were bushes of red and white roses
of delicious i'r.igratice, with hum
ming hiids and honeybees tiyinr

conviction that! he was as likely to

moving the bridle as by loosing 1 iie

the poet than the hostler. The gc

a Pegasus, was more apparent than
the unpoetic skill for handling a
Kentucky horse. And of all men
