THE HUSBAND. Ladies sometimes
do not value their husbands as they
ought. They not frequently learn
the value Of a good husband for the
first time by the loss Of him. Yet
the husband is the very roof-tree Of
the house-the cornerstone Of the
cdifce the keystone called home.
He is the bread winner Of the fami-
Iy, its defence and its gIory-the be-
ginning and ending Of the golden
chain of life which surrounds tits
controller, lawgivor, and its king.
Yet we say how frail is that life on
which SO much depends. How irail
is life of the husband and fatherl--
When he is taken away who shall fill
his place? When he is sick, what
darkness, weeping, agony The
poverty, like the murderous assassin,
break in the window starvation,
like furnishing wolf bowls at the
door. Widowhood is too often an
associate of sack cloth and ashes
Orphanhood too often means desola-
ton and woe.

EQUINE SAeAcITY.-There is a
horse at the Government corral at
this place noted for loosening the
knot oSthe halter strap with which
he is tied. Like the Davenport
Brothers, it is useless to tie him with
any ordinary knot. He will work
the strap loose with his teeth, and
go about the Carol just when he
chooses. There is a well in the
yard, from which all the Government
stock are watered. Day before
Yesterday the pump--a force-pump
worked by brakes-got out of order,
and no water could be obtained. =
The animals were taken to the creek
close by for water.
The horse referred to refused to
drink, was taken to his stall and tied
as usual. In few minutes he de-
liberately united his halter, walked
over to the pump, and finding no
water in the trough whore he was
accustomed to drink, at once seized
the brake with his teeth and work.

mans prosperity must depend upon
himself. Ifyou are industrious and
frugal, and if you set before you a
distinct object in life, you will sue

will come tono good. A man must
make up his mind what he means to

mcCOnns. NEW DEPARruRE

President McCombs, Of the New Or.
leans and Jackson road, as we are in.
formed, has agreed to subscribe $685.
900 to the capital stock of the Men,
phis and Paducah road, whenever the
connection or consolidation of this
road with the Mississippi and Tennes-
see is authorized by a decree of our
chancery court. McCombs is shrewd
enough to know that the Memphis
and Paducah stock will pay, and that
the speedy completion of the line will
render his property in the Mississippi
and Tennessee, and in more southern
roads, greatly more valuable than to-
day. In fact, Mr.. McCOmbs' system
Of roads should converge In this city.
The progress Of the Kansas City road
and OF that to Little Rock and Cam
den, draws McCombs to Memphis by
forces which he cannot well resist.
His interests may become identical
with those Of Memphis, and If he
would locate his workshops here, at a
point accessible to steamers that
would lessen greatly costs of trans
p~ortstioD on heavy freights, he would
subserve his own and the interests of
this city and Of Memphis railways.
BE could aid in bridging the Missis-
sippi and in the extension over Ar
kansas Of the most profitable system
Of railways in America.

out Texas and Arkansas, while New

tends iron arms toward the north.
