THE DYING NEVER WEEr.-lt is a
striking fact-the dying never weep. The
circle of sobbing, agouized hearts around
produces not tear. Is it that he is in
sensible and stiff already in the chill of
dissolution? That cannot be, for he
asks for his fathers hand, as if to gain
strength in the mortal struggle, and
leans on the breas: of mother, brother,
or sisters, with sill conscious affection;
and just before expiring, at eve, after a
long days converse with the Angle of
of Summons, he says to his oldest bro.
ther-the last audible good night of
carth-"Kiss mc-kiss me" 1t must
be because the dying have reached a
point too deep for earthly crying and
weeping. They are face to face with
higher and holier beings, with the Fa-
ther in Heaven, and his angel throng,
led on by the Son himself; and what
are the gricfs of a morning, tears of a
dying farewell-be it that they are
shed by the dearest on esrth-in that
vision bright of immortal life and ever
lasting reunion.
THE death of another member of the
firm of the great slandering house of
Harper Brothers is announced. Mr..
Joseph Wesley Harper died at his resi-
dence in New York on Monday morning.
Mr.. Harper conducted the literary cor

known to authors in this country and
Europe. The only two surviving Of the
four brothers wh) Funded the firm are
John and Fletcher Harper.
An absconding wife is thus pathetical-

of your children, your parents, your hus'

well. At any rate, enclose the key Of
the cupboard where the gin is."

buy the thing he wanted thes most OF

A few minutes later, Johnny was
owner of the wished.for turkey, and
went trudging home as fast as he could
go.
He was entering the gate to his own

his gate on the opposite side Of the

"Johuuy, johnny" called Mrs.

"Gool night, I wish you merry

Fred.
Jvhnny's only answer was the slam
of the gate, and rushed -into-lha- house.
"Why, Jonathan Folders! Where
and how did you get that turkey?'
"Down town, mother, down town"
and Johnny broke, into a wild dance
that would have done credit to Shaw

"How? when? where? p said Mrs.

at the turkey.

Struck Dead Gambling.

The number of persons who have
died suddenly in gambling houses in
this city during the past year has been
remarkable. At II Ann street is a
gambling hell, kept by man generally
known auopg the fraternity as "uncle
john" One night, about six months
since, a young man dressed in the
height of fashion, with gold watch and
diamond pin and rings, entered aud
began to gamble. lie was unlucky, and
rapidly lost his money; then he staked
his watch, and that, too, followed his
money. His diamond pin was next
risked, and still fortune was against
him. Then he took from his finger a
beautiful solitaire diamond-and for
which he was allowed one huadrsd dol.
lars. And now he won. Fortune
seemed to have changed and was smiling
upon him. Evory bet he made he won,
until his "stack of checks" was larger
thap that held by the "bank."
Suddenly his head droppedforward
outhe table and he was dead. Of course,
Immediately all was excitement and
confusion around the table, during
which "Uncle John" quietly raked in.
the checks aud closed the bank, and
thereby saving himself over Sc, 900,
which. the. dead man had won. On the
inside Of the ring was engraved the
dead mans name. He was a young man
of good family, and was to have bsen
married next week. HIS friends were
notified and took the body away, and it
was given out that he had died sudden
ly of heart disease while reading a paper
at home.
Far distant from this was the
case Of the poor devil who died in a
gambling hell in East Broadway, short
time afesa He was one ofthe eregu-
lass. -Enr-tweatg . Naars-- he fl-bee.s-
constant hdhIu'e of faro banks.--
When he commenced, he was doing
good business, had happy wife, and
was in fair way to fortune; when he
died he was a vagrant and outcast-
his wife died Of q broken heart long
age, his children had grown up in mis-.
cry aud vice, and he had no friends 10
the wh"le graf city, where he once
had hundreds f them. The Coroner
was notified, an inquest was held, and
verdict rendered that he, too, had died
OF heart disease, but no effort was
made to conceal the fact of where he
died. lie had no wealthy friends or
influential politicians to "sce' the Cor
ouer and press and "Gx" things. No
one was harmed by the fact that Henry
Pettibone died suddenly in fourth.rate
gambling hell in East Broadway.
There have been at least balf q dozen
other sudden deaths in faro banks in
this city during the past year, to say
nothing of three who have committed
suicide there.

Assault on q North Carolina Editor.

HE WAS FORMERLY A WASHINGTON REPORTER.
AsHEvLLR, n. c., Jan. 10-Editor !tar:-On
Monday last. in this place, during the progress
Of an election for Mayor and Aldermen, dast-
ardly assault was made on Albert II. Dowell,
Jr., editor Of the Asheville Pioneer, by one
Clayton, one Of the Democratic officials Of the
town. DOwell was knocked down and badly
beaten, and general riot would have ensued
had it not been for the interference of certain
parties. The assault, it is alleged, was provoked
by an article in the Pioneer, of a late date, Of
political nature, which reflected on the manage
ment OF civil affairs by Democratic corpora
ton.
Asheville has not been thoroughly recon-
structed yet. 1t is controlled by the Democracy,
and at the election for Grant last year quite a
riot occurred, at which one or more cOlOred men
were killed. Mr.. DOwell was for long time a
reporter for the Chronicle, Of your city, is a
thorough Republican, and is doing good work
in spreading true Republican doctrine in his
section. We regret to learn that he has been
seriously hurt. NOT An AsHRvILLIAN.

Parte upon the citizen Ulrie de Fonville.
L have had the weakness to believe that Bona

aged years, who died from effects Of burns
caused by the explosion OF can Of kerosene.
