At the Wayside Well.

 

WALTER LEARNED. .

 

He stopped at the way-side well,

Where the water was cool and deep;

There were feathery ferns ’twixt the mossy
stones,

And giay was the old well sweep. ’

He left his carriage alone ;

Nor OOuld coachman or footman tell

Why the master stopped in the dusty road
To drink at the wayside well.

He swayed with his gloved hands

The well-sweep, creaking and slow,

While from seam and sear from the buckct's
Gide '

The water splashcd back below. ‘

IIc lifted it up to the curb,

Aud bent down to the bucket’s brim; .

No furrows of time or care had marked

The face that looked back at him.

He saw but a farmer’s boy

As he stooped o’er the brim to drink,

And ruddy and tanned was the laughing face
That met his over the brink.

The eyes werevsunny and clear,

And the brow undimmed with care.

While from under the brim of the old straw
hat

Straycd curls of chestnut hair. -

He turned away with a sigh—

Nor could coachmgn or footman tell

Why the master stopped in his ride that day
To drink at the way-side well.

 

Correspondence.

 

ATLANTA, Nov. 10, 1871.
DEAR GAZETTE:

The Cotton Exposition is attracting a great
deal of attention in this city, and people
from every state in the Union are here from
time to time, and almost every state is repre-
sented by some of its productions in nature
or mechanism, each vieing with the other for
superiority—a good school for all. What
will most interest your readers wi.l be what
your own state is doing. ‘

A walk through the Willimantic spool cot-
ton manufactory would of itself furnish ma-
terial enough for one letter. They occupy
a very large space and in it you can see the
ancient and modern manufacture of cotton.
In the former are two cardcrs of the older
stamp, two spinners and one gin. Before
these there is always a crowd. Not only
their work interests but their quaint
dress and manners are a curiosity and carries
one back to the last century. Often in this
department will stop a lady of modern dress
and style, take hold of the roll and spin sev-
eral bouts. Afew days since Mrs. Gov. Col-
quitt was seen at the spindle giving an ex-
ample of what her early education consisted
ini or at least onajof the branches. Quite a
contrast to this is the hum of hundreds of
spindles, the whirling of reels and the gin-

- ning of cotton, or the order should be re-

versed. The windiug of the cotton onto the
spools is also a wonder, and the visitor is
not only rewarded bv seeing it done but a
nice box with a spool of cotton in it is hand-
ed each one.

You have already been informed of the
two suits which were made in one day for
our governor and Governor Colquitt. We
witnessed the operation this week on Mon-
day when a suit was made in the same man-
ner for Mr. Edward Atkinson, of Massachu—
setts, who has been spending several days
here and who first suggested the exposition,
but he says it has grown so much beyond his
first conception that he feels he cannot claim
it now. The other two great rivals in spool
cotton are here in fine style—Clark’s O. N.
T. and J. & P. Coats. They are both fitted
up beautifully, but do not manufacture ex-
cept some boxes, and do the winding on
spools by improved machinery and likewise
present each visitor with a spool of thread.
Across from the Willimantic is the Wheeler
& Wilson Sewing Machine department fitted
up in superb style with a lace canopy on the
border of which is the menacing motto of
“ We challenge the world,” wrought in large
letters made of cotton. They have several
beautiful pavilions in which are fine die-
plays of their work, from a leather harness
and shoes to the finest cambric dresses for
ladies and children. They have an embroid-
ering machine at which stands an operator,
and ladies handing their hankerchiefs and
name he will write. it out with the needle
without first tracing it, He is kept busy.

As the Exposition is not confined to cotton
as at first proposed, an enterprising firm not
many miles north of you has come down
here with an exhibit of wire goods. The
Gilbert & Bennett Manufacturing Company,
who have the only sieves, riddles and wire
cloth on exhibit, and not only these but the
veritable fence that is to “ fence the world,"
which causes many to stop and examine the
fabric, which is woven and then galvanized.
Quite a spirited argument arose the other
day between Senator Brown and ex-Gov.
Wade Hampton who met there, as to which
Was the best fence, the buib(:ir sometimes
the ous is added) or this, when a reporter
from one of your Iil~ll_'lD Cities stepped up
and closed the argument. by putting in ii. this

sign, “ This fence is not an of—feuce but a de-
fence,” they both admitted the truth and con-
cluded that they should both want some.
There is also from your town a machine
for taking the seed from cotton and'arrang-
ing it into various uses such as fertilizers, oil

cake and ground. The process is so simple

and sure,as the polite agent shows all visitors,
that they are astonished and express them-
selves in true southern style. “ That is a
Map a‘ good,” or “ that’s mighty nice."

Last week was the cattle show of which
there were some fine specimens, but nong
that would make your northern farmer break
the tenth commandment. The agricultural
department is fine and the displays numerous,
one farmer having 265 different articles from
his farm (and he is a bachelor, girls,); his
name is Jones, from Talbot, Co. The south-
ern productions, such as cotton, sugar cane,
peanuts, pomegranates, oranges, &c., are of
more interest to northern people than the
grains, potatoes, apples, &c., of which all
are splendid. The agricultural implements
for saving labor are a world‘ of themselves.
There have been such improvements in these
machines that one was heard to say the other
day that if they bought one this year there
would be something more convenient and
economical next year, and perhaps they had
better wait. Next week General Sherman is
to visit the Exposition, which stands on the
ground where fell his shot and shell and the

' blood of the North and South both mingled

\-

together. The papers say he will be receiv-
ed with great pleasure and be given a hearty
welcome, but from what private individuals
say who suffered from the war I do not think
they hanker after him much, and will avail
themselves of any excuse not to go out that
day. “They say ” the city is full of stran-
gers, but it is not difficult to obtain board at
reasonable prices. The railroads have .all
put their fare down to one cent a mile for
visitors to come to the Exposition, which
gives an opportunity rarely offered for people
to visit the South, and one of the greatest
exhibitions ever held—the Centennial not
excepted, as far as American industries are
concerned. Send down your frozen northcn-
ers and I will insure them a warm reception.

BROOKLYN, Nov. 13, 1881.

MESSRS. EDITORS;—~No doubt most tem-
perance workers know that Dr. Beuj. Rush
of Philadelphia, was, if not the first, among
the first earnest outspoken advocates of
temperanccin'this country. I have before
me a pamphlet entitled “ An inquiry into the
effects of ardent spirits upon the, human
body and mind, with an account of the
meané of preventing and of the remedies for
curing them,” By Benjamin Rush, M. D.,
Professor of Medicine in the University of
Pennsylvania, being the sixth edition, dated
1811.

Tue pamphlet commences with what the
author was pleased to call a moral and physi
Cal thermometer, a scale of the progress of
temperance and intempcrauce.

Liquors with effects in their usual order.

Now come the cuts of two thermometers.
one marked temperance and theothcr Iiitem-
perance.

TEMPERANCE.

70—Water—Hcalth and happiness.

(SO—Milk and water—Serenity of mind, repu-
tation.

50—Small beer—long life and happiness.

40—Cidcr and pony," checrfulness, strength

30—Winc nourishment when
20—Portcr taken only in small

10 ——Slrong beer, I quantities and at meals
INTEMPERANOE.
10—Punch—Idlencss, sickness, debt.
20—Toddy and Rum—Gaming, pcevishness,
quarrelling, tumors of the hands in
the morning, pinking, bloatedness, jail.

30—GrOg—Brandy and water, fighting, horse
racing, inflamed eyes, red nose and
face, black eyes.

40—Flip and Shrub—Lying and swearing,
sore and swelled legs, jaundice, hospi-
tal or poorhousc.

{lo-Bitters infused in spirits and cordials—
Stealing and swindling, pains in the
hands, burning in the hands and feet,
Bridewell.

(BO—Drums of gin, Brandy and rum in the
morning, perjury, dropsy, epilepsy,
states prison.

TO—Thc same morning and evening, burg-
Iarry, melancholy, palsy, apoplexy,
states prison for life, The same dur-
ing day‘ and night, murder, madness,
despair, gallows.

Dr. Bush was not as shown by the above

a total abstaiuer. lie drank his small and

strong beer, cider, wine and perry, but be-

Ciitise lic assailed distilled liquors he was

assailed by members of his profession, and

by men of all professions, for ardent spirits
at that day were thought to be an indispen-
sible article for the table and the social circle.

But some of us have outgrown those senti-

ments, and yet some Doctors of Divinity are

no farther advanced in the cause than was

Dr. Rush eighty years ago. MAIN._

 

 

Sherman at Atlanta.

ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 15.——To-day the Mexi-
can Veterans’ Association held its annual
meeting at Judges’ Hall, on the Exposition
Grounds. General Walker in a brief speech,
introduced Gen. Henry R. Jackson, of Sa-
vannah, who delivered the oration. which
was a history of the campaign against Mexi-
co. General Sherman bcing called on made
a short speech, in which he spoke of his con-
nection with the Mexican war. He then
continued:

“ Now, gentlemen. we have heard the elo-
quent address of this memorable day. Its
spirit is good and I see no reason why we
may not now declare with Webster, ‘Thank
God I am an American citizen.’ We are
American citizens. I thank God that I am
one, and I tell you that I can go to any spot
from Maine to Texas and stop where Iplease
so long as I behave myself and obey the
laws of the place, and that is the spirit of
the government. That is what made us the
United States of America, and that is the
foundation stone upon which govermcnts are
built for this continent. We fought our
mother and acquired our independence, and
to-day we are the same Nation, the same scl-
dicrs, the same government, the same flag,
and so far as I am concerned I am just as
friendly to Georgia as I am to my own native
state of Ohio. [Immense applause] If you
all think Georgia is a better part of the
country, why, stick to Georgia, and if you
want to go to California, why,go there. That
is the great value of our system of govern-
ment. It is a government worth fighting for.
I have come tO-day to look upon these build-
ings where once we. had battle fields, and I
delight more to look upon them than to look
upon the scene which was here enacted six-
teen years ago; and I say that every native
man and every kindly woman over this broad
land takes as much pleasure in your prosperi-
ty and in this Exposition as do those who
are sitting in this presence to-day. I did not
intend to be brought out even this much,
but I think that we are all now in a position
to say, every one of us, that we thank God
that we are, each and every one of us,
great and small, young and old, American
citizens.”

 

New Tacoma.

Mr. Villard has been elected President of
the Northern Pacific Railroad, and has re-
ccntiy purchased 4,000 lots here in New Tc-
coma. The report that Charles Crocker had
purchased the coal mine for $100,000 has
turned out to be $1,500,000—which seems
inoic reasonable.

There was an avalanche of snow slid down
Mt. Itanicr, not. long since, Sliakiiigthe earth
for thirty miles around and frightened the
Indians terribly.

It is a pretty sight to go out to Puyollup
and see the hop pickers at work. There are
now ovcr'2,000 Indians and Chinamen at
work and still they want more. They could
not have more delightful weather. The
days are clear and beautiful and the nights
are cool and pleasant. I have kept a record
of the Weather at this place since June 2d,
and with but two exceptions: the ther-
mometer has not risen above 70°. The cli-
mate here is delightful, with always a cool
breeze blowing from the Sound which tem-
pers the air and reminds one very much of
Roton Point after leaving the dusty streets
and sweltering heat of your metropolis.

There has been but very little rain this
summer and it is now beginning to he need-
ed, as the woods are on fire and it will take a
hard rain to put them out. It looks beauti-
ful at night to see the fires across the bay,
climbing up the hillsides and looking from a
distance as though the angels had rebelled
against heaven and were trying to burn it up-

Tlicre is beginning to be a certainty that
the terminus of the Northern Pacific R. R.
will be here, and work in consequence was
never pushed ahead with more vigor. The
railroad Shops, machine shops, and carpen-
ters arc overrun with work and are calling for
more men. On 0 street there are thirteen
new dwellings now nearing completion that
will range in value about $500, on D street
are twelve, on Pacific Avenue there are over
twenty, and on Railroad Avenue as; many
more, and they are in demand faster than
they can be completed. The hotels are all
full. There is the Halstead, St. Charles,
American, Pacific and Union hotels, besides
sevintccn large boarding houses, and two
more fine hotels are to be erected soon.

Pt-rliaps in the history of Washington
Teriiory there has not another town grown
as this one has this summer. She has cut
through many new streets—her timber has
been cut down and burnt, and are the ashes
Were cold frames were erected upon
them. To-night the wind is howling and
reminds one of full. How soon will the
cold, wintry blasts sweep over the country
again; and so with our lives,cre we are aware
our hair has become silvercd, our brow
wrinkled, our step weakened and We render
an account to our Maker. More anon. E. C.

“ How to keep the boys at home,” is a con-
undrum that is agitating the parents of the
land. It all depends on the kind of a boy.
Some boys could be kept at home by estab-
lishing a beer saloon in'the basement, others
need a ball-room in the parlor; but the best
way to keep a boy at home is to tell him to
stay there and make ita point to have him
obey you. Begin early and you have the.
problem solved—New Haven Regimen

SCIEN'I‘II‘IC illSBELLANY.

Recent investigations show that the pulse
membrane of diphtheria is built up by a
parasitical plant, which fastens itself to the
throat and grows and multiplies upon its
inflamed surroundings. The spread of these
plants to the blood, either poisoning it them-
selves or conveying poison to it, produces the
diphtheria. The possibility that diphtheria
may be prevented by artificial§vacciuation is
pointed out. ‘

It has Often been doubted that the ancient
sculpturings found in different parts of the
world could have been cut without the aid
of iron tools ; but archaeologists have in re-
cent years succeeded in reproducing such
sculptures in granite with the use of stone
implement; only. An example of the extent
to which granite may be modeled with tools
of stone is found in the great sculptured
stone of Montezuma, in Mexicn. It is re-
cordcd of this stone by Game: that ILn
thousand Indians Were employed in trans-
porting it to the City of Mexico, wheic
thirty workmen with stone axes sculptured
it.

With byposulphite and acetate of soda—
two chemicals found in every photographer’s
laboratory—a very pretty experiment may be
easily performed. A Solution of the former
may be prepared with one-tenth of its weight
of water. If such a solution be placed in a
vial it will, if kept quite still, remain
without crystallization, and will allow
another solution—L-acetate of soda liquefied
with one-seventh its weight of water—to be
poured on it without mixing. If kept quiet
the solution will remain liquid; but if a
crystal of hyposulphite, held by a thread, be
carefully passed through the upper solution
to the lower the latter will solidify at once,
while the former remains as limped as ever.
If, however, an acetate crystal, is lowered
into the acetate solution, the latter quickly
solidifies. ’

A singular case of the production of sound
without the aid of diving creatures has been
observed by M. Rculcux while hunting in
the Roderbachcrthal, near the highest point
of the Rhine province. The ground is, in
the main, gently undulating and heavily
wooded. The valley, spacious on the eastern
side,narrows rapidly to a sort of pass,tlirough
which the Roderbiicli fiows westward for
about halfa mile. A southwest wind was
blowing. and ill. Rculcux, coming along the
hillside from the east, heard what appeared
to be the strokes of a fine deep-toned bell in
rapid succession. There was no such bell in
the neighborhood, and some other sounds
soon heard satisfied him that the effects
were of natural origin. Tones were heard
growing in force to a maximum, then dying
away;lthey were like those of organ-pipes
at first, but their ”clung" came to resemble
that of a violin or harp. At ;the mouth of
the pass, whence the sounds seemed to radi-
ate, there was a strange agitation in the air,
and mixture of sounds, some of which ab-
riiptly stopped. M. Reuleux supposes bod-
ies of air in vertical motion, or trombes, to
have been carried along from the pass, and
the sound to have been due to conflict be-
tween the outer and the inner air at the
mouth of such iombes, producing oscillations.
The marked difference in temperature be-
tween the higher and lower parts of this-
musical valley is regarded as an important
factor in the case; the cold air above pressing
on the warm below, and closing the pass to
a sort of tube. The wind secured to be quiet
except in the lower parts.

Self-luminous photographs, which shine in
the dark, can be made by laying a transpar-
ent “ positive” upon a sheet of Balmuin’s
luminous paint. and then exposing the latter
to sunlight. The pictures lasts only a short
time.

In investigating the effects of the electric
light, German scientists have found that it
is not only healthier than other methods of
illumination in leaving the air purer, but that
it increases the power of vision in some rc-
spccts, especially in distinguishing colors.
Red, blue and yellow are made much more
distinct and marked under this light than by
daylight. This is also true of green.

Aregularly interrupted beam of light—
obtained by rotating a disc with a circle of
apertures in the path of the beam,—-mecting
a selenium cell in an electric circuit with a
telephone, produces a musical sound in the
telephone. This constitutes a form :of the
photophone—or radiophone, as it has been
i‘c-uamcd—and M. Mercadicr has recently
applied the same principle to telegrapy. By
pressing a Morse key he causes a diaphragm
to be raised before the apertures in the disc,
and thus, by interrupting the note in the
telephone for long and short intervals, gives
the Morse alphabet acoustically. These
sounds may be transmitted to stations at a
long dis.ancc away over the ordinary wires,
and a little practice is said to enable the 0p-
crator to easily receive and interpret the
messages. The system admits of several
messages being'simnltaueously sent over one
wire; in the same or different direc‘ious.
This is accomplished by connecting several
sets of apparatus with the wire. The disc of
each set is made to give a different note
(either by increasing the speed or the num-
ber of holes), and each listener with a teln-
plioue confines his attention to one note, to
the exclusion of others, and Observes the in-
terruptions of it. It. is claimed that this is
not. at all dillicult. The system is Stated to
be applicable to long lines.

The Paper Ba".

The triumph of machinery in its applica-
tion to the manufacture of simple articles is
well illustrated in the history of the paper
bag. Twenty-five years ago the limited
amount of paper bags in use were made by
hand. And it probably never occurred to
the ninety-and-nine conservative ones that
there was any necessity of improving the
method. It would certainly never pay to
apply machinery to so insignificant an arti-
cle as a paper bag, a mere joining of paste
and paper! Yet inventive skill tried its
hand, and the result was a machine capable
of turning Off 100,000 a day. What follow-
ed was the same as in hundreds of indus-
tries similarly affected. Bag factories sprang
up, and no sooner did the supply exist than
a demand was created. New uses were dis-
covered for. the article, and today the an-
nual consumption in the United States, in
round numbers, is one billion. At the same
time the price has been reduced to a mere '
fraction above the cost of the paper. Of
the one billion paper bags annually pro-
duced in this country, more than three-
fourths are turned out of eight factories,
whose combined capacity is about five mil-
lion per day. Since the application of ma-
chinery to the manufacture of paper bags,
the greatest revolution in the industry has
been wrought by the invention of a machine
to manufacture what is called the “satchel
bottom" bag, in which the bottom is so
shaped that the two protruding corners of
the old-style bag are avoided. Certain bags
can be bought in large quantities at one-
seventh of a cent apiece, and even lower,
the advance being about twenty or thirty
cents per thousand over the price Of paper.

these ? ” Smart boy—“ Gloves.” Customer
—“ Yes, yes, but What do you ask for them?”
Smart boy—~“ We don’t ask for ’cm ; cus-
tomers do that.” Customer—“ You don’t
understand me. How do they come ? " Smart
boy-—“ Why they come in pairs. of course.”
Customer—“No, no; how high do they
come? ” Smart boy—“Just above the wrist,
I believe." Customer—“ But what do you
get for them? ” Smart boy—“ Me? I don’t
get nothing for ’cm. Boss pockets all the
money.” Customer (losing patience)—“What
is the price of these gloves per pair? " Smart
boy-“ Oh, that's yer lay, is it? Why didn’t
you say so aforc? One dollar.”-Boston Trans.

Costly Dinners.

A TALK WITH DELHONICO.
Philadelphia Times.

“What was the grand ‘swan dinner, I hear
of sometimes?"

“That was a dinner at which we had a
small lake built Upon the table, in the centre
—110. not so very small, either—and at which
the desert was served in swan’s egg shells,
cut out of marble, while in thelake swam five
live swans. The table was a bed of roscbuds
That was a tolerable dinner.”

“That reminds one of the dinner told of in
Pctronius Arbiter.”

“Sure enough ; but those old classic writers
tell things that modern gastronomy ncvcr
reaches. The fine arts in cookery and table
service, as in painting, seems to be better—
in their descriptions—than We can rlvai
now.”

“Don’t get jealous; if you had lived when
no punch was good withoutapearl dissolved
in it and a handful of rubies to flavor each
glass, you might have excelled. What was
the big private dinner ?"

(Mollificd.) " Well there was a gentleman
who gave a dinner to 10 people that cost him
$400 a cover. It was luxurious enough to be
classical. His bills of fare he provided him-
self, and he insisted on the garcons, five of
them being dressed as sailors. He was a
yachtsman, and he bought their clothes and
sent for them next day to dress his sailors on
the vessclwitli. The bills of fare were the
features of the dinner. Let me see, they
drank—or rather tasted-«every vintcd liquor
that has ever been brought to America. I
do not mean they drank every kind of wine,
but the best was not good enough for their
taste. They finished with a pous’e cafe made
of eleven liquors.”

“But the, bills of fare ?”

“They were too grand. Before each plate
sat a cut glass basin about twenty ineiie
diameter and four inches deep. Each
nearly filled with water perfumed with o:
of roses, on the surface of which floated h.
open pond ;lilies. In the basin a perfect
model of the yacht owned by the gentleman
who gave the dinner was’nlneer‘ 7' ~. -
in red cedar wood, '
steering, brass wor'i
binniclc, etc., man
med with sailor knot _ _.,.-.. pine masts,
and booms, rigging of silken cords colored
as it would he in the prototype, and cails of
satin.”

“But the bills of fare ?”

“Yes, yes! The sails carried the bills of
fare. On the flying jib were the words.
Compliments of the—, well, giver of the
dinner; on the jib the date and place ; on the
foresail was the name of the guest who sat
at the place where each little vessel floated,
and on the mainsail was the menu. Then
as the guest had occasion to consult it. he
used a little gold car that rested on the fin-
gers of a gilver naiad who peered over the
Sparkling glass and held cut both hands to
grasp the oar. After the dinner each guest
either carried away the bill of fare or had it
sent to him at his home. The bills of fare
must have cost $100 apiece.

“Got one i” '

“No, I have $100 to keep.”

“Who gave the dinner?”

“Whisper—I decline to advertise the id-
iot.”

“But he must have been an idiot of taste
to plan such an arrangement for a bill of
fare!”

“Don't tell the people in Philadelpl
that; they won’t believe it; besides, lie didi
plan it; it was another idiot—I mean In.
self.”

“Was that the best private dinner you ever
gave ?"

“Yes; that was the most expensive, and we
never serve anything but the very best.”

BERNADOTTE’S SPIRIT. —The following story
was told me as an instance of Carl (Johan)
XIV.’S spirit: ARussian man-of-war was
seen passing the fort of Waxholm en route
for Stockholm without having given the
customary salute. The orders of the fort
commandant were distinct that in a casc,v‘"1c
this two warnings were to be given.
first, that of firing a ball in the rear of
vessel. If this was nnheedcd, another
to be sent in advance of its bow. In case
both warnings were disregarded, a ball was
to be sent into the most vulnerable part of
the Ship. In the present instanceboth warn-
ings had been given without response, and
the commandant. a young, beardlcss lieuten-
ant, though shaking iu his boots, cried out to
the cannonier, “ Do you see the wheel-
house ?”

(t Yes."

" Send a ball into it, in God’s name!”

This had effect. With crushed wheel-house
the Russian stopped perforce. A moment
later two boats were see setting out for
Stockholm; one with the frightened young
commandant in it from Waxholm, and one
from the disabled man-of-war, each rowing
with utmost Speed in hope of reaching the
royal presence first. The Swede arrived just
enough in advance to obtain the first audience
He gasped out his story.

“Well," said the King, “it {seems she
wouldn’t salute, and you fired 1-"

" Yes."

“,thre did you hitzher !"

“ Oh, your Majesty, be gracious!"

“ Did you hit the wheel-house ?"

“YeTch'

“ Good ! You’re a major.”

The Russian was permitted to rebuild its
wheel in SIOCIILOIHl.—Elrjk‘)"8 .llligan'ar

“Say, mister, I want a warrant right
quick!” iexclaimed an irate woman, as she
dashed into the police headquarters yesterday
afternoon. “What do you want of awar-
rant ?" asked the sergeant. “For my servant
girl. Has she got any right to chase me
around the house with a clothespole ?" Cer-
tainly not. That's what I thought. Which
of us has a right ,to eat at the first table, she
of me ?” “Why you have of course,” “So I
supposed. I want to know if I have got to
sleep on the ,back fence with the cats four
nights in the week while she gives parties
in the :kitchen I” “Assuredly not. Why
don’t you discharge hcr ?” “I can’t get near
enough. Say, does the law justify herr in
using my false teeth to draw carpet tacks and
making me shin around with nothing on but
a hair pin and a sore throat, while she wears
my clothes to a wake ?” “I don'tbelievc it
does.” “So I concluded.” Give me a war-
rant." Can’t get any warrant here-
You’ll have to go before the judge in
the morning.” “Will, eh? Well, I won’t !
If you think I’m going to waste any more
time lawing with that girl, you’re left. To-
morrow morning the oil canwill be left along
side the kitchen stove, and if you find a job
lot of legs and backbone around your pre-
cinct, you can make up your idea that that
girl is out of a job and I'm busy collecting
the insurance. You hear this twittering 1”
And she left the sergeant wondering if even
dynmite would have any effect on a girl who
could get the best of that woman—Brooklyn
Eagle.

 

So be it.

So be it then! We may not say

Whether this thing be worse or best,

But God knows. Let it rest.

Yea, let it rest, and in our place

Let each do well some worthy deed,

Whereof the sickly world hath need.

So much. no more, our bands can do.

So much, then, let us do and wait—

Though bitter be the heart’s debate.

We notice in many an esteemed contemp-

to our general free trade principles, that these
duties should be not “for revenue only," but
for “protection” as well.-—1)ctroz't Free

He has to Set type all night and Play pedro
