CARRoLLToN WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 3. 1916.

This is the same sort of ladies' logic
which gives rise TO endless differences from
one datum. II there be a single promi-
nent good quality in an individual that is
supposed to color and influence his whole
character, have only TO say 10 my wife
that such a man is very disagreeable
companion, and she will Immediately con
tradict me by saying, How can you say
that, when he is so kind 10 his nephews2 p
How often do we hear the fair sex praise
the sound doctrines and eloquence of an
orator, merely because he has fine voice
Something pleases them, but they are not
sufficiently analytical to trace whether il
is the mimic of the voice or sound reason
ing. shall never forget being present
at discussion on one, perhaps, of the most
eloquent preachers who ever stood in a
pulpit. A LADY remarked that she thought
seine Of his doctrines were little wild,
and that his language was little over
strained. "Dear me,n said another, "
am surprised you think SO, for finer hair,
eyes, and teeth, | never beheld, The la
dy was probably poor Judge Of divinity
or rhetoric, but on hair, eyes, and teeth,
she was an authority" The effect Of the
preachers discourses was extremely pleas
ing TO her; and whether pleasure arose
from the handsome person and elegant
delivery, or from them her estimation
subordinate qualifications of eloquence and
sound doctrine, she could not determine
In nothing is ladies' logic so strenuous
" employed as in persuasion, and in no.
thing does it show itself so characteristic
cally. Some years ago my wife wanted
TO persuade me 20 dine at the supper, in
stead of the dinner, time Of day. Her
reasons for the change were Of the most
feminine character. Convenience, health
and comfort were quite Out Of the question,
but" Sir Charles Grander never thinks
of dining till eight, and, in fact, there is
hardly family whom we visit, that thinks
Of sitting down before seven.
The ladies will, | am sure, agree with
me that that which we call logic is not
their forte. Their powers of conquest
over US are derived from other more potent
sources--ihe convincing eloquence Of their
eyes, the Irresistible persuasion Of their
smiles, to say nothing of their lips. But
about them we dare not enter into farther
particulars, except to observe, that nature
mover intended them for chopping logic.

Thoughts on making the Grave Of a Child

BY N. P. WILLIS
Room, gentle lower,!-my child would pass to
heaven!
Ye looked not for her with your soft eyes,
o, watchiul ushers at Deaths narrow door,
But lo while you delay to let her forthj
Angels beyond stay for her! One lorg kiss
From lips pale with agony, aud tears
Wrung after anguish bad dried up with FIRE
The eyes that wept them, were the cup Of life
Held as welcome to her, Weep, oh mother!
But not that from this cup Of bitterness
chcrub Of the skies has turned away.
One look upon thy face ere thou depart!
1t is too soon TO let thee gol
My daughter! With thy birth has gushed spring
knew not oi-flling my heart with tears.
And turning with strange tenderness to thee
A love-oh God, it seems so--th at must flow
Far as thou 1eest, and 'twixt heaven and me,
Henceforth be bright and yearning chain
Drawing me after thee! And so, farewell!
IT'S harsh world, in hich affection knows
No place to treasure up its loved and lost
But the grave Thou, who SO late vast sleeping
Warm in the close fold of mothers heart,
Scarce from her breast single pulse receiving,
But it was sent thee with some tender thought
How can leave thee--HERE Alas, for man.
The herb in its humility may fall,
And waste into the bright and genial air,
While we-by hands that ministet'd in life
Nothing but love 10 ps--are thrust away
The earth flung in upon our just cold bosoms,
And the warm sunshine trodden out forever!
Yet have chosen for thy grave, my child,
bank where ! have lain in summer hours,
And thought how little it would seem like death
TO sleep among such oveliness. The brook
Tripping with laughter down the rocky steps
That lead up to thy bed, would still trip on,
Breaking he dead hush of the mourners gone;
The birds are never silent that build here,
Trying to sing down the more vocal waters;
The slope is beautiful with moss and flowers,
And far below, seen under arching caves
GliIters the warm sun on the village spire,
Pointing the living after thee And this
Seems like Il comfort, and replacing now
The flowers that have made room for thee, 60
To whisper The same peace 10 her who lies
Roob'd Of her child and lonely lis the work
or many dark hour and many prayer,
To bring tbe hoart back from an infant gone.
Hope must give DER, the busy fancy blot
The images from all the silent rooms,
And every sight and sound familiar to her
Undo its sweetest links--and so at last
The fountain that once siruck must flow forever
--Wil hide and waste in silence. When the smile
Steals to her pallid lips again, and Spring
Wakens the buds above thee, we will come,
And standing by thy new music haunted grave
Look on each other cheerfully and say
! A CHILD THAT WE HAVE LOVED IS CONS TO HEAVEN
| AND ny TINS GATE or FLOWERS SHE PASSED AWAY

In our last paper we gave an account
of the Tennessee Dwarf, the real living
Dwarf; in our paper of to-day we give an
account Of the Tennessee Giant It the
account as given be true, il certainly opens
new chapter in human nature, for we
have no account in history Of any giant
that bore any proportion 10 this one II
the bones alone weigh 1900 pounds, the
living giant must have weighed not less
than 5000 pounds. Rather good sized
gentleman we should say.
We were informed by gentleman not
long since, that he had conyersed with a
gentleman who had seen the bones OF the
giant, and that there was really nc humbug
IN the matter. The gentleman referred
to, we are informed, offered $4,000 for

owner would not think Of taking that
amount.

where the bones we're discovered about go

From the vale what music ringing
Fills the bosom Of the night
On the sense entranced finging
Spells Of wtchery and delight
Oer magnolia, lime and cedar,
From yon locust-top it swells
Like the chant Of serenader
Or the rhymes of silver belsl
Listen, dearest, listen to it!
Sweeter sounds we're never heard
IT'S the song of that wild poet,
Mime and minstrel ocking- Bird
See him swinging in his glory
On yon opmost, bending limb,
Carolllng bis am'rous story,
Like some wild crusaders hymn
Now it tainis in tones delicious
As the first low vow of love;
Now il bursts in swells capricous,
All the moonlit vale above
Listen, dearest, listen to it
Sweeter sounds were never heard ;
IT'S the song of that wild poet,
Mime and misunderstanding Bird
Why is't thus this feathered Petrarch
Pours all night his serenade
Ills for some wild woodland Laura
His sad sonnets all are made.
But he changes now his measure
Gladness bubbling from his mouth
J lest and jbe, and mimic pleasure
Winged Mercutio of the South
Listen dearest, listen to it
SWeeter sounds were never heard
lis the song of that wild poet
Mime and misunderstanding Bird
Bird of music, wit and gladness--
Troubadonr of sunny chimes
Disenchanter Of all sadness
Would thine art were in my rhymes!
Ger the heart that's beating by me,
| would weave spell divine;
Is there aught she could deny me,
Drinking in such spells as thine!
Listen, dearest, listen to it!
Sweeter sounds We're never heard
IT'S the song of that wild poet,

A Lone STITCH. Some time about the
Isl of July last, a lady of Springfield,
Mass, 20 years Of age, accidentally in
troduced a fine sewing needle into her
hand, which was broken of, leaving about
half its length between the thumb and
fore. fngor, in direction towards the mid
die or palm Of tho left hand. A physl.
elan was requested 10 extract it, but as
there was so little pain or Inconvenience
arising from H. he advised her TO let it re-
main, rather than cut among the tendons
for it. In very few days all troble and
apprehension were over in regard to il
about the last of September, she felt some
pain in Ithe right side Of the abdomen,
and just above the hip, witch she conceived
TO be a spasm, and began rubbing It with
her hand, when directly the needle came
forth, and was extracted. The broken
point was about 7s Of an inch in length,
and its fine polish had suffered but little
from corrosion. The course which the
needle took in making this circuious
journey is entirely unknown to her. The
distance il travelled in about three months
could not be much less than four feet; its
nearest course, but for anght known, might
have wandered twice that distance before
il appeared at that point from which it was
extracted. [N. Y. True Sun.
