{, Go to Work with our Own Hands"

WARWICK" an Alabama correspon-
dent of the New York Day Book, con-
cludes one OF his letters as follows:
We are in ga great stew" about Ia
bor," an immigration" and all that,
down here. We have societies. and
legislative resolutions, and newspaper
appeals, and what not, on the subject
The solution of our trouble will be for
us to 90 to work with our own hands,
grow our own supplies of provisions,
marry young, raise our own "immi
grants, We are eight millions of white
people, and in twenty years can be SIX
teen millions What do we want with
German laborers," Scotch inmi-
grants, or Yankees, " or niggers,' or
anybody else? We have lands. What
good Wilt do us to give them away?
We have hands to work withal, and
sons and daughters who haze hands also.
Let us betake ourselves TO earnest labor,
and we can dress our own Eden. Lit
Dor is wealth." That is it! Butwhosc
wealth is it? Is it the wealth of the
man who works. What we want is to
enter into our own possessions and APP
propriate our own wealth. We are
daily. let down from our Erial Castles.
We have struck terra fawaa. Like In.
teus, let us rise up with renovated
strength, and yield only to a power
which can separate us from the mater
nal soil. I am not old, but can remem-
Der when the Oconee River, in Geo, was
the southern boundary of civilization.
If | may live to measure, in pain and
WEAKNESS, the deepening shadows of
twenty declining years, before reach
the portals of the tomb, at the human
station Of " three score years and ten,
| shall see these eight millions of white
people, spread like swelling waters, oyer
the whole land, from here to California.
all around the Gulf Of Mexico, in Cen
trail America and dashing the waves of
their population against the side of the
Andes. Here it is them Hereis Eden!
Here are our lands. Hear the ma
lestic footsteps of the creating God and
resounding through these va1lics, HIS
omnlpotant voice, work, " multiply
and replenish the earth and subduc it.
And this is " the dry land, !" as my Lord
Bacon saith, in "a dry light Let us
go to work The waters are divided
/" from the waters and the fermament
of the heaven is blazing above us with
the eternal lights which are for our
" seasons, and for days and years. We
have our guilty, tender, trembling help
meet at our side, companion OF our sin
and misery. We know that tholns
and thistles shall cucumber the ground,
and that in sorrow" We shall eat OF it
all the days of our life until we return
unto the ground" But glorious hope
lifts its guiding light to glorious des-
.iny. "The seed of the woman shall
oruise the serpents head!" Though
allen, we are not irrecoverable. A
shower of thunderbolts have blasted our
Alban Mount. Shall we fight Jupiter?
Nay verify! We have tasted of ." the
rec Of knowledge of good and evil.
Let US thank God it is not all evil, -
md pursue the good with humble devo-
ion. So at last we may come to the
rec of life, though it be guarded by
Cherubims and a flaming sword"

age to the Jacobin party must have been
a good deal like man inwestern Penn

er heknew where Jake Kleinlelter lived.
The boy said he did. Says he "Can
You tell Inc? p :" Yes sir;" said the boy.
" Do you see our barn down there? y
Z" Yes, says he" Go to that. About
three hundred yards beyond the barn
you will find lane. Take that lane
and follow along for about mile and
quarter. Then You will come to a
branch. Go up the branch about a
quarter of a mile, and then you will
come to a slippery elm log. You be
mighty keertul, stranger, about going
OF on that log; You may get into the
branch and then You go on up until
you get to the brow of a hill, and there
the roads prevaricate, and you take the
left hand road and keep that until you
get into big plum thiclSet and when
you get there why then-then-then,'

time to me, though they've been fully
occupied with hard study: I've passed
my examination, and have run down to
meet YOU and the Melvyns congratula-
tions." - - -.
"You would have had mine without
the asking" said Christine.
"That is more than expected said
the young man. ut is night Won
derful for beauty, Miss Christine" he
added.
Wonderful for beauty" she re-
, peated; but there was something in her
sweet voice which made one think OF
the tolling of bells. Mr.. Winthrop
glanced at her face, and knew what
night her memory associated with this
one.
"I don't know what l should have
done without you then, said the young
girl, drawing a little nearer to the gen
tleman.
at Was not I, Miss Christine, it was
God who helped you," said he.
81 never could have borne it other
wise" she said, 81 wonder if | needed
that terrible lesson-if without it my
life would always have gone in the old
channels of frivolity and self seeking,
with no real aim, OF purpose, or hope!'
Looking on the girl as she spoke, a
grave, sweet smile went over Charles
Winthrop's face, but something flicker
ed along the smile, and up into his eye,
which Christine did not see. He drew
nearer, and took Der hand in his.
Christine saidhe-anl his voice
bad lost little of its steady poise--
" 1 must speak what have to say in a
few words. That sweet ideal of woman
hood which my heart has so long linger
ed after has been revealed to me. L do
notbelieve that I should ever have found
it if it had not been for that night two
years ago. Christine" he continued,
"yon are rich, and I am poor. have
nothing to offer you but a love that has
twined itself SC closely around my life
that it seems as though it wonld be death
to tear it away. Yet. itwould not be,
because l trust in One who will give
me strength to receive your answer,
whatever itmay be. The Melvyns have
told you all about me that there is to
tell. A young lawyer struggling up in,
life can have little to offer woman in
your position, particularly when his
dearest friends have all gone to sleep
before him, and he has nothing but his
own efforts, and his faith in a higher
Power, to help him. Christine, you
know the rest. If your answer must
be No, do not let it come from your
lips, only take the hand which now I
hold away
The little trembling hand lay still in
his own, and Charles Winthrop had his
answer. Half an hour later, walking
up and down in the clear moonlight, he
said to her. But, your uncle and aunt,
Christine You know what value they
place on what I cannot give you-wealth
and position. y
The eyes of Christine Jarvys made
answer with her lips They will value
my heart more than those when / tell
them it is yours,
And so the sorrow and the JOY Of two
June evenings were blended together
in the heart of Christine Jarvys; and
ever afterward they lent tender sa-
credness and significance to each other.
