Pull Your own Weeds.

If you've weeds in your garden, my
good friend, pray,
Do not stand looking over the fence.
To your neighbor's dominions- over
the way
Your weeds are the most consequence
Uproot them, while yet there is daylight
to work, ..t....
Tear them up, seed and branch, from
~ the soil;
They are sure to do mischief, SO pray do
not shirk;
You'll be amply repaid for your toll.
The advice would apply to the garden Of
life
,Tis SO seldom we see our own weeds
For watching our neighbor, or, worse
yet, wife,
And counting their many misdeeds,
We pass our own follies, our faults we
disguise
In the garments of selfish conceit!
We're ever perfection (in our own eyes,
Our neighbors may take back seat.
Let us pull our own weeds, and work
with WILL.
While yet there is one to be found,
Nor point o'er the way in derision until
We have carefully TILED our own
ground.
For watching the faults Of others we see
Not the ones in our own hearts SO rife;
Let US pull for ourselves, let others
weeds be,
It'll we clean our own garden of life.

How a Dog Saved 2 Mans Life.

How a Dog sayeQ 2 MANS Llle'
A pleasant little story, of which
the hero is well trained setter-dog,
comes from Quincy, ILL.,, and the Wing
of that city tells it as follows:
"The dog usually sleeps at night in
a kennel in the rear Of the house. On
Thursday night1ast, about 10 o clock,
as his owner went to his room in the
second story on the front side of the
building (the lights below being ex-
tinguished,) he heard his dog come
beneath the window and set up a
most earnest constant barking, and it
seemed to him that there was an unu-
sual tone in the animals voice. Sup
posing that there were intruders on
the premises, he opened the window
and called out to Mig" to catch
'em, The dog, instead Of starting
off under the order, continued tc
bark, jumping up against the wall o.
the house beneath the window, eyi.

dwelling. His master following, found
his hired man lying on the ground

Negro Killed South Carolina.

That. insuferable nuisance, nay,
more than nuisance, that immsasura-
bic infamy. "niigger government, is
rapidly Showing its detestable fruits
in the South directly, and in the
North Indirectly. South Carolina has
tried five years of niger legislation
and carpet-bag rule, backed up by
bayonets. To-day her whites are al
most starving beggars.; her niggers
utterly debauched as whole; her
resources exhausted; her revenues
impoverished; over a million Of her
acres, plantations, farms and home
steads, are in the hands Of the sheriff,
and once industrious and fruitful
State sunk into the very depths of
political and financial degradation.
The North suffers y-the ruin of the
South, by the ruin of the least i'm
portant section Of the South, just as
ineyitablF as q human being suffers
with gangrene in fpot or hand, in toe
or finger The industry and prodpc-
ton Of the South are the business and
profit Of the North. Her rice, tohao-
co, naval stores, and great staple, cot
ton, have been the main support of
our shipping interest, once ranking
second only of all the great nations
of the globe. A niger. freedom war;.
a niger equality sentiment, q niger
franchise principle, ending in niger
representation to a certain extent in
the State and National councils, in
the public offices and the courts, have
crippled, impoverished, politically and
commercially reduced this once great
people to a fourth-rate power, and
bur future is dark and terrible'if we
