Mary, Mary, DEAR" land there was

to labor that way; and be sure, my neice,

AT ER THE BALL.

They sat and combed their beautiful hair,
Their long bright tresses, one by one,
AS they laughed and talked in the chamber thert
After the revel was DONE
Idly they talked of waltz and quadrille,
Idly they laughed, like other girls,
Who over the fire, when all is STILL
Comb oct their braids and curls,
Robe of satin and Brussels lace,
Knots Of flowers and ribbons, too,
Scattered about in every place,
For the revel is through.
And Maud and Madge in robes Of white,
The prettiest night-gowns under The sun,
Stockingless, slipperless, sit in the night,
For the revel is done,--
Sit and comb their beautiful hair,
Those wondrous waves of brown and gold,
Till the fire is out in the chamber there,
And the little bare feet are cold.
Then out of the gathering winter chill,
All ont Of the bitter st. Agnes weather,
While the fire is out and the house is still.
Maud and Madge together,-
Maud and Madge in robes Of white,
The prettiest night-gowns under the sun,
Curtained away from the chilly night,
After tha ravaI IL dona
Float along in a splendid dream,
To golden gittern's tinkling tune,
While thousand lustres shimmering stream,
In palaces grand saloon.
Flashing of jewels, and flutter of laces,
Tropical odors sweeter than musk,
Men and women with beautiful faces,
And eyes of tropical DUSK
And one face shining out ike STAR
One face haunting the dreams of each,
And one voice, sweeter than others are,
Breaking into silvery speech
Telling, through lips Of bearded bloom,
An old, old story over again,
As down the royal hammered room,
To the golden gittern's strain,
Two and two, they dreamily walk,
While an unseen spirit walks beside,
And, all unheard in the lovers talk,
He claimeth one for a bride.
Oh, Maud and Madge, dream on together,
With never pang Of jealous fear
For, ere the bitter St Agnes weather
Shall whiten another year,
Robed for the bridal, and robed for the tomb,
Braided brown hair, and golden tress,
There'l be only one of you left for the bloom
Of the bearded lips to press
Only one for the bridal pearls,
The robe of satin and Brussels lace
Only one to blush through her curls
AT the sight Of lovers face.
Oh beautiful Madge, in your bridal white,
For you the revel has just begun,
But for her who sleeps in your arms tonight,
The revel Of Life is done!
But robed and crowned in your sanity bliss,
Queen of heaven and bride of the sun,
Oh, beautiful Maud, you'll never miss
The kisses another hath Won.

FORTY YEARS IN SLAVERY.

The KIDNAPPED AND THE RANSOMED :;
Being the personal recohections of Peter Still
and his wife Vina, after forty
years in Slavery

postage paid.
Peter Still was kidnapped in early childhood
from the doorstep of his home in New Jersey
For more than forty years he was slave in Ken
lucky and Alabama. At last he purchased his
freedom by the slow accumulation of extra labor,
and returning to the region of his birth, found his
yet surviving mother and his numerous brothers
and sisters, living in and near Philadelphia. His
wife and three children, under the pilotage of Seth
COncklln, attempted to escape, but were recap
tured at Vincennes Indiana. Peter Immediately
set about collecting the means for their purchase.
The sum demanded for them was exorbitant--
S5,000-and would have discouraged almost any
other man than Peter Still. Yet the strong social
feeling and the energy of his race were strikingly
manifest IN his untiring perseverance, which was
crowned with success and Peter had the unspeak-
able pleasure of bringing his household to a free
home, where they can quietly enjoy their own
treslde, free from the masters frown and the dr-
vers lash
The writer of this narrative was highly es-
teemed teacher in the Female Seminary at Tus-
cumbia, Alabama, who had every opportunity to
acquire personal knowledge of all the prominent
facts and circumstances which she has narrated
We can promise the lovers of exciting adventure
very much in this volume to crafty their taste
and all those who really desire to fathom the
heights and depths of that iniquity which is
threatening the destruction of our Republic, may
turn to it in the assurance that they will find in It
much valuable information, given with the strict
est regard To truth

A "DRY" SUBJECT-In a certain city,
which shall be nameless, in our State,
lives one Jim Swigs, character noted for
his honesty, integrity, and love of whisky.
Not many years since, a gentleman from
New England visited that section, with a
view to invest few dollars. He bore a
letter of introduction to Jim, and also a
knowledge of the fact that if he wished to
propitiate" that individual, and obtain in
formation in regard to chances to make
good strikes" whisky was the article to
accomplish his purpose
Armed with gallon of corniuice," they
started for --, about five miles from
town, to look at a " forty" which Jim had
recommended as a good bargain Hardly
had they crossed the river before Jim en-
quired for the beverage.
Here it is" said Downeast, producing
the jug.
Jim took good long pull then, set
ting down the jug, said
Pretty fair whisky, but that isn't all
you've got, is it ?"
All y exclaimed Downeast, +" for Hea-
ven's sake, isn't gallon enoughr
Enough y and Jim gave him a look
signitying both scorn and pity for his ig-
norance rhY stranger, achafS q gal
10" an'ong taco, a0lth tfge miles toride and
back again, aolth nary grocery on the
road ?"
The position of the team was reversed
instantly, Downeast suddenly remember
ing something he had forgotten, and back
they went to town again.
Downeast never saw that + forty" and
his funds are now invested in something
besides whisky and Western lands.
