See how they crowd and snort below,
And fight for husks all brown and dry,
While at their feet, like beads of snow,
The pearls you threw to feed them lie.
Tears that the bruised and breaking heart
Hides in its she'll, TO Jewels turn;
They have their value in the mart,
They glitter when they cease to burn.
Go, take them to the smiling bride,
Your wife that lives in frozen tears;
They crown her dark hairs odorous pride,
The heart-bcats swing them in her ears.
Oh, fool TO fling them TO the swine,

George, let us try it for a while"
George kissed his wife, and said
she was a blessing and he prom
ised that he would follow her adj
vice in the future. He took the
money which she had to give, and
held it as a loan, which he was to
return at the earliest possible mo-
mcnt-and he felt an ambition, too,
to see how speedily he could do it.
And on Monday morning the new
rule of life went into operation
George paid Mr.. Skidd's bill, and
told him that hereafter he should
pay cash for all he bought. The
storekeeper pooh-pooh'd, and said
there was no need of it.
''Blcss you, my boy, l had as
lief trust you as not"
II do not doubt it, Mr.. Skidd ;

groceries than to consume yours,
A bill is an evil at best, and l don't
choose to have evils growing on my
hands if l can help it,"
Mr.. Skidd saw very plainly that
his customers vision was clear, and
he said no more.
On the evening of that very
Monday Mr.. Skidd exhibited some
extra nice preserves, and the young
mans first impulse was to order q
pot of them but the taking out OF
his wallet, and the breaking of q
five dollar bill, was a palpable re-
mindcr and he concluded that he
could get along without them. Said
he, to himself -...,.
"Thosc seemingly trivial sums
if l save them, will, at the end q
the month, add up as greatly in my
favor as they have heretofore adde(
up against me-
And he found it so. And ht
found one more thing in his favor
from cash payments, which he hat
not particularly counted upon. As
he had the money on hand tc
pay for the articles which he haC
planned to purchase, he could bu.
them where he could get them tn
best and cheapest. Traders are no

| of account an important item in tn
aggregate of many accounts, bu
the keeping of that account in pay
book and ledger is an expense
George very soon learned all this
and he found that even Mr.. SkidC
sold TO him during his month o
cash payment cheaper than he haC
sold during the previous month.
And as the months rolled on

was hence not likely to purchase
what he did not need. And ther
he had a goal ahead which he hat
determined to reach as speedily al
possible ; and by his system of casl
payments he could estimate at tn,
close of every day the gain he was
making toward the desired end. Ii

EXQUISITE TRIYQUILLITF,n

The opinions of The Atlantic Month!y Maqa-
zine upon matters of literature are presump-
lively valuable. It's opinions upon matters of
politics are worth just what they are found to
be worth after examination. 1t thinks that
"with President Grant the country has at
"least the assurance of tranquillity"-tha
reconciliation will be established on the only
"possible terms, submission to equal laws"
This statement is bit of smooth and super
fetal generalization, which we find, when we
come to examine it closely, really means
nothing at all. There is no reason to sup
pose that the last years Of Grantism
would be any better than the first.
On the contrary. we have, from the
tone of the general reelectioneering ora
tory, every reason to anticipate something
worse.
We hardly find single Administration
orator who can make up his mouth to
say kind word of the South. On the con-
trary, the speeches of Grants men are merely
q mixture of reproofs and threatenings. Ii is
taken for granted that the South does not
mean to be peaceable and loyal, and the vice
of the Grant policy-the assumption tina sub
mission is preferable to loyalty-is only sur
passed by the further assumption that loyalty
means substantially passive obedience. Grants
notion of reconciliation, so far as he has
any, is of the quiet and non-resistance
secured by an unchecked military su-
premacy. Tranquility" in the vocabulary of
camps, has very sinister meaning; but we
have 10 reason to anticipate under Grant a
tranquility even of this least desirable descrip-
ton. II will require more than four years ut

KICKING THE CORPSE OF A LIE.

We lately had occasion to comment on hon.

cussion and to give illustrations OF the lack of both
which ruled out The NeW-ToTk EUenfna Post EK-Gov.
Myron H. Clark comes forward with card in that
good Grant paper The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
to confirm all, and more than ALL said. He refers 70
the extract from The Erenig Post saying that letter
from correspondent OF respectable and responsible
name. declares that Greeley a Know-Nothing In
1884, that he initiated into a Know Nothing Lodge
In Canandagua, N. Y, by Myron H. Clark aud others
that Mr.. Clark afterward nominated for Governor
by the Temperance and boltng crew from the reg
ular KnowNothing party OF this State, &C., &C." Gov.
Clark responds by saying first, that is that he
initiated Mr. Greeley in Know Nothing lodge in Canaan
dagua any place else ana that he has reason TO be-
lleve that Mr. Greeley initiated any Know.
Nothing lodge by anybody there anywhere. He re-
cites facts Of his nomination, and the circumstances
the and finally kicks the corpse OF The Posfs
lie in this remorseess fashion,
My opponents for the office in the election were the
Hon. HOratlo Seymour, the regular nominee Oh the
