the Judge.
We went down into the saloon, where
we found two parties at play. At one of
the tables sat four men, about whom were
gathered a large number of lookers-on /;
and as those proved to be the heavy play
ers, we joined the spectators. The game
was :. twenty-deck poker" and money was
changing hands with startling rapidity.
One of the players, middle-aged man,
whose face showed plainly the ravages of
an excess that was sapping his life, and
who, afterwards learned, was a cotton
planter, had staked his last dollar and
{" called his opponents hand He had
four queens, against which were laid down
four kings. And he was sc broke" He
started to his feet as if TO leave the table.
'.Are ye dead broke, Colonel?' asked
he of four kings"
"Yes-to the last picayune.
Give me your note, and I'll lend ye."
"No. replied the planter with an oath,
Sc I can do better than that. Where's Mr..
Wackman!"
"Here," answered dark-visaged man.

THERE is something so attractive about

surrounded by them. We desire to have
them yet nearer TO us; and wherever we
fhd them whether in garden or field, our
natural impulse, at every age, is TO gather
them and make their perfume all oul own.

Lies Stream.

Life bears It's on like the stream of Il
mighty river. Our boat at first glides
down the narrow channel-throught the
playful murmurings Of the little brook
and the wintlings of its grassy borders.
The trees shed their blossoms over our
young heads; the flowers seem to offer
themselves to the young hands; we are
happy in hope, and we grasp eagerly ut
the beauty around us but the stream
still hurries on, and still our hands are
empty. Our course through youth and
manhood is along IL wider and deeper
flood, amid objects more striking and
magnificent. We are animated at the
moving pictures and enjoyments and
industry around US We are excited at
some short-lived disappointment. The
stream bears us on, and joys and griefs
are alike left behind MS. We may be
shipwrecked, but we cannot be delayed ;
whether rough or smooth, the river
hastens to it's home till the roar of the
ocean is in our ears, and the tossing OF
the waves is beneath our feet, and the
shore lessons from our eyes, and the
floods are lifted up around us, and we
take our leave of earth and its inhabi-
tants, until our future voyage there has
no witness save the Infinite and Eternal.

yalne Of Old Newspapers.

DO you preserve your newspapers? If
you had any idea of how valuable and
interesting they would be many years
hence, you would certainly do so. The
most interesting reading imaginable is
n file Of old newspapers. 1t brings up
the very age, with all its genius and its
spirit, more than the most labored de-
scription Of the historian. Who can
take up IL paper dated half IL century ago
without the thought that almost every
name there printed is now cut upon ii
tombstone Mt the head of an epitaph?
The doctor (quack or regular) that there
advertised his medicines and their cures
has followed the sable train of his pa
-tients; the merchant, his ships; and the
actor, who could make others laugh or
weep, can now furnish IL skull for his
successors In Hamlet. 1t is easy to pre-
serve newspapers, and they will repay
the trouble, for like wine, their value
increases with age. And most especial
ly are they interesting when we date
our early loves and aspirations and adj
ventures from the time of their issue.

The Notifications of Paris were con-
structcd in the reign OF Louis Philippe.
They consist of II Fashioned and terr:,ced
wall, with thirty-four feet of escarp-
ment, faced with masonry, and sur
rounded by Il ditch of n breadth varying
from GO to lG5 feet. The general out
line is of an irregular oval form, nearly
% miles in circumference, and enclosing
an area of 10, 27l acres, or 30 miles, and
a population Of 100000 persons. The
axis of the oval from north to south is
300 yards, and that from east to west
12,317 yards. Around the enciente or
circuit of the wall are "a angular forts,
with areas of about 1888 square yards
each. There are besides seventeen case
mated fortrcsses, located ut the princi
pal approaches, and connected by sunk
en- roads. Inside the walls Il carriage

Does Her own Work.

Does she? Is it II disgrace to herY'
Is she less true woman, less worthy
than she who sits in silks and satins.
and is vain of fingers which never knew
any work? We heard this sneer a few
days ago, and the tone in which it was ut
tered betokened n narrow, selfish, mind,
better fitted for any place than Il demo-
cratic country, whose institutions rest
on honorable labor as one of its chief
|corner-stones. 1t evinces a false idea of
the true basis of society, of true woman
hood, of genuine nobility, It shows
the detestable spirit of caste, of rank
which a certain, class among US are striv-
ing to cherish a caste whose sole found
alton is money, and SO the neanest
kind of rank known to civilization.
Mind, manners, morals that enter into
grand character, are of 40 account with
these social snObs; position i'll their
stilted ranks is bought with gold, and
each additional dollar is another round
in the ladder by which elevation is
gained
AS Il matter of fact, is it more dishon-
orable for Il merchants wife to do her
own work than for the merchant to do
his; for her to look after her house than
for him to look after his store: Or, is
tho woman tit for nothing but to be
with the straw? 1t seems the height of
ambition in some circles to be or profess
to he not only "above" work, but even
ignorant of how work is to be done; and
ii the table is poorly spread, if the
housekeeping is ut skies and sevcns, the
helpreccives malcdictions without num-
Der, but the lady takes none of the res
possibility upon herself. She look into
the kitchen? she know how bread should
be made, or steak broiled? she know
when the flour is out or the sugar in?
Absurd! Help may be bad enough,
but what interest can the girl in the
kitchen feel in household economy if
the lady in the parlor has none? Ii the
mistress neglects all domestic duties,
will the maid be thoroughly conscien-
tious? Will the husbands business go
on if he neglects it? And why should
that OF the wife prosper under lack of
responsibility?
An aristOcr,,cy of wealth is the most
ineXcusable, the silliest of any distinc-
ton; and yet it is that which many of
our citizens, many of our otherwise SEN
sible young people are fostering and
trying to establish. ..

lnSOlVcnt men OF their political faith to
hold offices.
They have deceived the coIored vo-
tiers, endeavored to excite riots, in some
instances succeeded; encouraged them
to attend political meetings armed, to
the terror of women and children, thus
disturbing the peace.
They are now encouraging them to
organize into military companies, when
no necessity exists therefor, and which
is calculated finally to eliminate into
riots.
These arc some of the acts done by
the Republican party since it has been
in power for less than three years.
They have rendered life and property
insecure, and brought the State to the
verge of bankruptcy.
What are the people to expect ifthey
are continued in power? Let all good
men join to save the State, and go into
the canvass upon IL platform, just, equal
and right for all, without distinction as
to color, race, or previous condition,
and success is certain.
