Financial Success of Cay
ce's Spring POWer.N

NaSuflHe CnpitdisSts VINO re-
fused to put their money in Cay
ce's spring power are likely to
feel rather sad when they read
this from the Franklin ReUie,o and
Journal:
The company who owned Cay.
ce's spring power patent for Great
Britain aud Ireland, few days
since closed the sale of one-fourth
of the same to a firm III New
York at a very handsome profit.
The purchasers were Messrs. Ev-
ans, Gardner & Co, gentlemen of
great financial ability and among
the most prominent business men
of New York. The gentlemen
composing the company who sold
were: Messrs. +. E. Binford,
JAS. A. McNntt, jeff M. Word,
Jas. McEwen, JAS. Caldwell, A. j.
Puryear, Geo. |. Briggs, Jno. IL.
Harrison and 4. g. Eelbeck.-
They now have the, advantage of
the influence of other interested
parties who have the means, OPP
portunity and business tact to
push the enterprise forward and
to make it pay an immense profit,
/ if it can be done by anybody, and
we have no reason to believe that
1t cannot. And of course every
step taken by the New York Com
pany towards developing the in
vention will affect the Franklin
Company. We congratulate the
gentlemen upon their sale, and
wish they may realize their most
sanguine expectations"
A prominent citizen of Frank
/ lin informs us that Mr.. Cayce. who
lived in quite a modest way in
franklin, is now occupying, with
his family, a suit of rooms in the
Grand Central Hotel, New York.

for the welfare Of the boys, once upon a

had been tripped up, or sent flying over

snow was carted upon the bare spots, or
water sprinkled when it would form ice.
Was not this an enlightened view of an

Be Kind to the Poor.

AYE, be kind to them Ye who have
never felt the bitter pangs of gnawing
hunger, who have never passed through
dreMy winter with chattering teeth and
limbs palsied with cold, who have never
prayed for the sweet forgetfulness of
sleep, to shut out for brief season the
frost whose icy breath struck chill to your
heart and who have never fallen prey
to the canker worm of grief and misery,
which all these sufferings entail, we pray
you, be kind to the poor
Be kind to the poor. Yes, for the
blessing of prosperity which Heaven has
showered upon you, will yield you no
true happiness if others are starving
Heaven has placed you upon earth, and
has exposed you to like chances of want
and wretchedness In Pharisaical spirit,
then, thank not God "that you are not
as other men," but rather with the Publi-
can sue humbly for mercy, and enhance
the efficacy of prayer by charity and
kindness. A satisfied conscience sheds a
peace and comfort through the heart and
soul, without which the immortal spirit
cannot be satisfied. Follow not then
after the selfishness of the world around
you, unless, like Dives, thou wouldst here
after reap thy fate, and view from amidst
thy torment the poor man in Abrahams
bosom.
Be kind to the poor. And well thou
mayst! How many gradations of suffer
ing and want must that heart endure,
which, lacking life's necessities and man. S
friendly hand, lies down to die with a
prayer for that mercy of Heaven which
earth denies. And though faint be the
voice of supplication, and weak the heart
which lifts itself to God, yet will it pre-.
vail with the Omniscient, and be register.
ed above as testimony against thee.
Be kind to the poor. Earth has more
sorrow than her heart can contain, more
of suffering than frail nature can bear.
The widow left to toll and struggle alone
amidst the desolation of bereavement, ap
peals in tones more eloquent than words
for your sympathies and aid. The help
less orphan brought into the world and
left alone by the relentless hand of death
claims your guardianship and protection.
And as you expect continuance of the
mercies and blessing of Heaven, so in this
wise be merciful to others; then shall the
gates of plenty and honor be open to thee
and the pillow of peace kiss thy check

THE OLD WORLD.

A Paris dispatch of the 9th says ''the plan
of a Republican revolutionary uprising has
been organized over the whole territory of
South France. The movement was held ready
for immediate commencement in case Theirs
resignation of the Presidency resulted in the
appointment of the Duke de Aumale or Mar
shall Mcmahon to the chief authority of the
Executive. The Republicans keep the peace
only subject to the Bordeaux arrangement
for the establishment and maintenance of a
democratic form of government in France.
Any authorized attempt which may be made
for the restoration of the monarchy absolves
them from the obligation, and they will pro-
ceed to take up arms"
The Pope, on the 9th, granted an audience
to the Grand Duke Michael, brother of the
Gar of Russia. This is regarded as Indie
ative of Il reconciliation of differences which
have existed between His Holiness and the
Gar.
A special dispatch from Nice states that
Minister Washburn gave grand banquet to
Gen. Sherman on the evening of his depar-
ture for Italy.
A new religious journal has been estab-
lished at Rome, which will oppose the dog
ma of infallibility. Pere Hyacinthe is to be
| one of the contributors.
\ manifesto has been issued by the Count
de Chambord to the French people. The
Count claims as of yore the right divine, and
says: 81 shall never abdicate my claim to
the throne of France. / shall never forsake
the monarchieal principle, which have pre-
! served intact for forty years, and which is
the best hope of Frances greatness and lib
critics. Cesarism and anarchy threaten
France because her salvation is sought in
| personal questions and not in principles.

DOROTHY.


You say that my love is plain.
But that can ne'er allow
When Hook at the thought for others
That's written on her brow.
Her eyes are not fine, own,
She hasn't well-cut nose.
But smile for others pleasures,
And tear for others woes;
And vet will own she's plain,
Plain to be understood,
For who could doubt that her nature,
Is simple, and pure, and good?
You say that you think her slow,
But how can that be with one
Who's the first to do kindness
Whenever it can be done?
Quick TO perceive want,
Quicker to set it right,
Quickest in overlooking
Injury. wrong and slight?
And yet she is slow indeed,
Slow any praise to claim,
Slow to see faults in others,
Slow to give careless blame.
. Nothing to say for herself"
That is the fault you find!
Hark to her words to the children,
Merry, and bright and kind,
Hark to her words to the sick,
Look at her patient ways,
Every word che utters
Speaks in the speakers praise.
Nothing to say for herself!
Yet right, most right you are;
But plenty to say for others,
And that is better by far.
You say she is :. commonplace"
But there you make mistakes:
l would could think she were SO,
For other maidens sake.
Purity, truth and love,
Are they such common things
II hers were common nature
Women would all have wings.
Talent she may not have,
Beauty, nor wit, nor grace,
But until she's among the angels
She will not be commonplace.
