Touching Story of Love and Constancy.

The Omaha Tribune gives the following story
connected with the marriage of Ar. and Mrs.
Henry j. Holmes at Prairie City, Iowa.. The
oentlemati is one of the early settlers OF Cali
fornia:
Eighteen years ago, after the usual court
ship the couple became engaged, the young
lady agreeing to wait until such time as her
lovers financial circumstances should justify
the performance of the marriage ceremonies.
at that time Mr.. Holmes was on visit to his
people, and returned shortly to California in
the hope that his second visit to the Golden
State might be more prosperous than the first
one. His return was frequently promised du-
ring the succeeding five or six years, but the
tickle dame fortune always played false. Aban-
doning the mining fields, the young man gave
his time to other and surer industries, and IN
two years had accumulated neat little sum OF
money. During all this time not word oil
complaint came to him from his betrothed' She
remained constant.
After getting his money together, Mr.: Holmes
visited Iowa for the purpose OF making the
sweetheart wife. A girl who had proved so
true to lover could not we'll be false to any
one and when one of her brothers was pro-
nounced consumptivc, she was not long IN an, n,
nouncinc her determination to stay by him and
minister to his wants Mr.. Holmes told him
of the wonderful air of California, and used all
his means to induce him to so there, but with,
out avail. The failing man was determined
upon never leaving the old homestead, under
whose roof his father and mother passed from
earth.
The sisters duty was plain and she met it as
a true woman would.
The pledges of constancy were renewed, the
lover returned to California, feeling keenly the
truth of the sentiment; "Hope deferred ma.
keith the heart sick" He gave his undivided
attention to business, meeting with good sue
cess in all his undertakings, and to-day is
worth over hundred thousand dollars.
In the meantime the separated lovers cores
bonded regularly. The invalid brother at times
was thought to be on the high road to health,
and at others, very near deaths door, But tor
many months he had steadily declined, and
when the last springtime ushered in the green
leaves and the singing birds, he was laid to
rest.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Holmes made another
visit to Iowa. when the hopes of years were
realized, the faithful pair being united III mar
riage last Sabbath evening. :,
In appearance, the lovers have been sadly
changed by time and care and sorrow, but that
their hearts are as young as ever, Is as certain
as that "purity remaineth bright forever. :
They looked yesterday more like people who
had been married for twenty years than like a a
newly welded couple, the husband being 40
and the wife 80.

abandonment of the policy of its defense by
bullets. We are to-day as much bound to de-
fend this principle in the conflicts OF peace as
in those of war Are any here who were with
Jackson at Charlottesville in 1868 ? If So
you will remember the change in the pro-
gramme there. I do not give words, but the
Substance. General Jackson, after one OF his
swift gallops along the enemy's front, would
ride up to General Lee and say:
General, this is mistake to move IN here;
There is this difficulty and that in the way.
"Well, General Jackson, cannot be every,
where on the whole line at the same time.
must trust something to my subordinates, and
my engineers tell me this is the line to ap-
proach upon" =,
z>'Well, then, General jackson, what we
Want is to win the battle. You see the enemy
upon the heights. You see his entrenchments.
We must carry them. If you can suggest
better plan to carry out our purpose, shall be
glad to hear it. What do you propose %'
"You must go to the flank, sir-you muststrlkee
them in the rear" and soon Jackson's ragged
lines dragged not their slow, but swift length
along, through chincquepin and pine, OF that
now historic Wilderness. Soon, far off on the
enemys flank is heared the wild shout OF the
Confederate charge. Look! They scale the
HEIGHTS. and the red cross of battle waves in
triumph from the enemy's works.
Feliow-citizens, the enemies OF liberty; the
enemies Of the Constitution the enemies OF
good government are entrenched upon the
heights at Washington. Hosts are marshaling;
yea, the battle is already begun. Why stand
we here quarrelling because this man has not
been chosen leader, or that route has not been
selected for the approach? Into line and for
ward. Most of US have been soldiers. Have
we forgotten in what the might of armies con-
sists counsel concord. plead for unity.
bear the Olive branch, and beg that dissen,
sions cease in our ranks. Cooperation and
secession in 1860 brought division. Co.opera-
tion and union charged secession with the eS,
treme of rashness; but all were brethren, and
the minority bowed to the majority, and in
1861 we had unity. In 1872 the Liberal move
ment and the Straight" movement bring divis-
ion-not now the charge of rashness; but the
straight movement charges the extreme OF eau
ton. Let us, in the interests of unity and IN
the spirit of conciliation, go with the majority
of our people. Our aims are one. Let us not
divide as to means. Let us move into line,
and forward, my countrymen, to the frowning
battlements. If we secure nothing more, let
us secure the heights and hold them forever,
we hope, in the interest of the Constitution, OF
Law, of Liberty and of Peace.

A NOVEL IN OSE CHAPTER.-A romantic
marriage took place at the Garno House,
Wyandotte City, on Saturday last. The cir
cnmstauces arc these: \ Miss AIoshier, living
in Freeport. Stevenson county, ILL.,, became en-
oarcd to Young man named Morrison, of the
same place. Business being dull there in 1860,
the time our story commences; he concluded to
try his fortunes in California. He departed,
promising to write regularly, and either come
or send for her as soon as fortune smiled upon
him, Two weary years rolled by, and she re-
ceiycd no letters from him, and nothing was
heard by his or her friends of his whereabouts.
A report about this time was circulated by a
young man named Shipman, postmaster OF
Frceport, that Morrison was married. Although
hardly credited by Miss Moshicr still his long
silence, together with tho report OF his marri-
are. made her come to the conclusion that she
was forgotten. Shipman now became, very as
siduous in his attentions to her, and after Il
short courtship asked her to become his wife.
She. stunr with the treatment OF her first love,
consented and they were married, and conclu-
detl to make their home out West, removing
from Frceport to Kansas City. Here everything
went on smoothly for time, but in an un-
guarded moment her husband told her he had
interceptcd Morrison's letters to her, and that
he had written repeatedly, but as soon rs they
came into his hands they were destroyed. In
stead of forgiveness, as he expected, she up,
braided him for his perfdy, and, in short, led
him such life that he deserted her. After Il
time she commenced action for divorce,
which was granted on the ground Of abandon
ment She still remained in Kansas City, do
ing the best she could to obtain livelihood.
Morrison, after waiting two years and hearing
nothing from the object of his affections, grew
restless, but still worked on until news came
of her marriage. On hearing this he immcdi-
atcIy packed up with the intention of return
ing home to ascertain the truth of the report;

WHY WE SHOULD WEAR BEARDs.-There
are more solid inducements for wearing the
beard than the mere Improvements of 4 mans
personal appearance, and the cultivation OF
such an aid to the every day diplomacy of life.
The hair of the moustache not only absorbs
the moisture and miasma of the togs, but it
strains the air from dust and SCOT OF our great
smoky cities. 1t acts also in the most scientific
manner, by taking heat from the warm breath
as it leaves the chest and supplying it to the
cold air taken in. 1t is not only respirator,
but with a beard entire we are supplied with a
comforter rs we'll, and these are not left at
home like the umbrella and all such appian-
ccs when they arc wanted. NIofatt and Livv-
ingstonc the explorers, and many other travel
ers, say that at night no wrapper can equal the
beard. A remarkable fact is, too, that the
beard, like the hair of the head, protects
against the heat of the sun; it acts like the
thatch does in the ce-house; but, more than
this, it becomes moist with perspiratioin, and
then by evaporation, cools The skin. a man
who accepts the protection of nature, may
face the rudest storm and the hardest win
ter. He may go from the hottest room into
the coolest air without dread and we verify
believe he might sleep in a morass with impu-
nity: at least his chance of escaping the terri
bic fever would be better than his beardless
companions

The SWEETEST MOMENT IN LovE-MAK1Sv

THE SWEETEST MOMENT IN LovE-MAKtN;.
-"perhaps there is no period" says anthony ~
periods of love-making rs that in which the
intimacy between lovers is so assured, and the
coming event so near, as to produce and endure
conversation about the ordinary little matters
of life; what can be done with the limited
means at their disposal how that life shall be
begun which they shall lead together; what
idea each has of the others duties; what each
can do for the other. There was true sense
Of the delight of intimacy in the girl who de-
clared that she never loved her lover so well as
when she told him how many pairs of stockings
she had got. 1t is very sweet to gaze at the
stars, and it is sweet to sit out among the hay
cocks. The reading of poetry together, out of
the same book, with brows all close, and arms
all mingled, is very sweet; the pouring out OF
whole hearts in writing words, which the writ
er knows would be held TO be ridiculous to
ANYBODY but the dear one to whom they are
sent, is very sweet but for the girl who has
made shirt for the man she loves there has
come Il moment in the last stitch of 1t sweeter
