EON,T STAY LONG.

Don't stay lorg, husband" said a
young wife tendorly, in my presence,
n evening, as her husband was pre-
pairing to go u The words them
selves were insignificant, but the look
Of melting kindness hat accompanied
them, spoke volumes. It told the whole
vast depths OF a woman's love-of her
happiness when with her husband-of
her grief when the light of his smile,
the source Of all her joy, baamed not
brightly upon her,
"Don't stay long, husbandr'-and |
fancied [ saw the loving, gentle wife
sitting alone, anXiously counting the
moments of her husbands absence ;
every few minutes running to the door,
to see if he were in sight; and finding
that he was, I thought I could hear her
exclaiming, in disappointed tones, mot
yct-not yeti
"Don't stay long, husband And
again [ thought I could see the young
wife, rocking herself ~ncrvously in the
great arm chair, and weeping as though
her heart would break, as her thought
less "lord and master" prolonged his
stay TO a wearisomc length of time.
0, you that have wives, thatsay don't
stay long" when you go forth, think Of
them kindly when you are minglirg in
the busy hive of life, and try, just a lit
tie, to make their homes and hearts
happy, for they are gems too seldom
found, and when lost, too seldom re-
placed. You cannot find, amid the
pleasures Of the world, he Peacc-aud
joy that a quiet home, blessed with such
a woman's presence, will afford.
Don't stay long, husband" and the
young wife's look seemed to say, for
here, in your own sweet home, is allowing
heart, whose music is hushel when you
are absent-here is a soft breast for you
to lay your head upon, and here are
pure lips, unsoiled by sin, that pay you
with kisses for coming back SOON"
Think of it, men, when your wives
say to you, "don't stay long and, oh,
don't let the kind words pass UNDECIDED,
as of little value, for though they may
be to you, the disappointment of the
fulillment of their simple, loving wish,
brings grief or joy to them. If you
have an hour to spare, bestow it upon
them, and the pure love, gushing from
their gentle, grateful hearts, will be a
sweet reward.

TaaEl " yvEEpaNG wATER.,

We are often asked who named the
beautiful ana romantic stream the
Weeping Water. We know not the
man, nor the written history, which can
tell ; but there is a tradition concern
ing it, as follows:
Many years ago, two armies OF
red warriors met upon the prairie
where this stream now has its rise. a
fierce and sanguinary battle followed,
in which very many were slain. And
the wives and maidens of the braves
who were killed, wept here and then
began, and from that day has even con-
tinued the plaintive murmurs of the
Weeping Water. And the old Indian
legend tells us that its waters are all
tears, and it's urmu all signs, for the
many braves who fell that day, upon
the prairie where it rises.
And this is all that we know of the
waters that weep, and the way they
were named. May be that some ancient
Indian Lady, who had outlived her
generation, can tell the reader ome
thing more.
But to-day the tears Of those tawny
maidens are engaged in the unpoetical
occupation of turning ptiils, grinding
corn and saving lumber. Alas! that
rough-handed reality should SO destroy
the beauty Of rosy romance.
Bat so it is the wide world over-
reality is chasing romance out of exist
cnce. Lumber is preferred to legends,
as well in other places as in Nebraska,
and the trader prefers selling poor cali
20 70 the Indian rather than listen 10
his mysterious traditions. But by-and-
bye some Nebraska Longfellow may
write a 'pome' on the Weeping Water,
which will jump Hiawatha's claim to
4 160 acres of Immortality.

in the party. Factions, cliques, perso-
nal strifcs and ambitions and iudiyidu-
al scheming are always to be deprecated
in a party engaged in a great battle for
right, principle, country. But there
are occasions when such selfish strifes
and struggles become highly criminal
when they approach so neal to treason
as to be scarcely distinguishable from
it. When the honor of the State and
the safety of the Union depend on an
issue, all divisions must be forgotten,
and a solid front presented.
The Democracy of Ohio has had in
the past its fueds, its factions and its
strifes. The wounds then made have
had time to heal. There have been er-
rors, wandcrings, slips and missteps.-
But now the party is a unit-there are
no cliques and clans. And he who
seeks to keep UP the old divisions-who
suggests new issues-who preserves old
hostilities-is practically an ally and
friend of the common enemy, whom we
are all so deeply Interested in defeating.
In this view, we trust that every true
friend of the Union and of the Demo
crazy will enter into the friendly rival
~ for nominations for the chief execu-
tive posts in the State, with The feeling
and determination to acquiesce cordial
ly and enthusiastically in the choice of
a majority, and thenccforward to devote
all his energies to the success of that
choice, upon whomsoever it may fall.
In nc other way can we succeed in this
contest. A number of most capable
and excellent citizens have been named
for the Governorship and for the other
Executive Offices of the State. There
is not one of them who is not prefera-
bic to the present incumbent, and most
of them are gentlemen whose election
will reflect honor and credit upon the
State, and conduce to its redemption
from the disgrace which now Expresses
it.
What State or party can boast of ADLER
or better men than Payne, Mcdowell,
Manypenny, McCook, Smith and 9TH
ers, who have been named for the Chief
Executive of Ohio-all good, true, ma
tioual, Union-loving men, of tried hon
esty, efficiency and Democracy? There
is not one of them who, in all personal
aspects, is not above reproach or cavil,
Any of them will and ought to COM
mand the whole strength and voice of
the Democracy.
With corresponding candidates for
the other officers, and especially with an
honest, tried man for Treasurer, there
can be little doubt of a glorious triumph
of the Democracy in the fall elections,
provided we are true to ourselves, our
party and our country, and avoid per-
sonal and factious despites, selfish divi-
sions and old quarrels, and go with n
voice, will and choice for our country,
the Union and Democracy.

7OEEN CHENAMAN AHEAD OF A
YANKEE,

a San Francisco paperrelates the fol-
lowing incident as having occurred late
" at a shoe store in that city. The
parties concerned were the proprietor
Of the store and a John Chinaman.-
Examining a pair of boots, the price of
which was five dollars, John inquired
How muchee you axce for um boot
ee?"
In a spirit of waggory, is is presuma-
bic the owner replied:
1.-Two dollar and halfee, John. Very
cheap bootee, aintee 2;
CHEAP b~ootce," said John, who there
upon examined Il pair, and conluded to
buy, offered a quarter eagle.
But said the dealer in leather,
"this IS only cnoughfuro one boot. They
are two dollars and a half a piece-two
boots cost five dollars.
John was somewhat astonished, said
he would not buy and demanded the
return Of his money, but the leather
dealer was memorable.
No, John" you have got II boot
and have paid HE for it. Now give mo
another piece just like this, and take the
other"
John saw the DRIFT OF the game, and
was at once resolved.
"Well," said he, this bootec be mine,
may bel paid for UNI
eYes,' said the dealer.
"And you no give me the other boo
tee ?" asked John.
"Not without the money" said the
other.
"Well," said John, "I do UNI bootee
what I please cuttee um up
And thereupon John whipped out a
knife, cut the boot to pieces, and threw
it into the street, ~exclaiming as he de-
parted
"That am my bootee-that other be
your bootee; you sell um to the next
fool Chinaman what come along.
AT last accounts the boot dealer was
looking for the man with a wooden leg,
to whom he might sell the old bootee,
and thus save expenses.

nlGood humor is a bright color in
the web of life; but self-denial can only
make it fast color. a person who is
a slave of selfishness, has so many wants
of its own to support and defend, that
he has no leisure to study the wants and
interests of others. It is impossible
that he should be happy himself, or
make others around him so.
