PUT HIM DOWN"

There is feeling of jealousy that
seems to be innate in some natures,
There are many persons who can
neither look with pleasure or appro
baton on the successful accomplish
ments of their neighbors, and if, by
honest worth, one struggle to achieve
an unblemished reputation, there
are hundreds ever anxious and
ready to pick flaws both in his per-
sonal character and business rela-
tons, their motives being prompted
by no reasonable prejudice, but be-
ing rather impeIled by their inordi-
nate selfshness and envy. If a
young man just starting in life, with
buoyant hopes and laudable ambi-
tion, struggles to assert his mental
and moral supremacy, there is often
a strong feeling created against him,
and many jealousy exclaim, "put
him down." as if one of lowly estate
had no native born right to raise
above the level in which he was
created. Would it not, in the broth
erhood of man, be morei of christian
charity to aid an encourage the soul
that struggles to enlarge and help it
self?

IF THOU HAST CRUSHED A
FLOWER.

fthou hast crush'd flower,
The root may not be blighted:
If thou has queneh'da lamp,
Once more it may be lighted.
But on thy harp, or on thy Lutte,
The string which thou hast broken
Shall never in sweet sound again
Give to thy touch a token
If thou hast oosed bird,
Whose voice of song would cheer thee,
Still, still he may be won,
From the skies 10 MARBLE near thee:
But ifupon the troubled sea,
Thou hast thrown a gem unheeded,
Hope not that wind or wave will bring
The treasure back when needed,
If thou hast bruised a vine,
The summers breath is healing,
And its clusters yet may glow,
Through the leaves their blooms reaching
But If thou hast cup oerthrown
With a bright draught fill'd-Oh ! never,
Shall Earth give back that lavished wealth
To cool thy parched lips fever!
The heart is like that cup.
If thou waste the love it bore thee;
And like that jewel gone,
Which the deep will not restore thee;
And like that string of harp or Lutte,
Whence sweet sound is scatterd,
Gently, Oh gently touch the chords
So soon forever SHATTERED.

been a sustaining power in the dark
days of compelled labor.
The agitators of the "women's
question" have crowded in all kinds
of impossible claims, but nowhere in
their suggestions have we seen any
thing approaching the quiet syste-
matte training which makes we'll
ordered English household power
in the land, as well as an exponent
of all domestic virtue. To them, as
well as to butterfly of fashion, ex-
citement and display seem the sine
qua non of existence. To harrangue
at the street coners, to fill the ranks
of the learned professions, to make
as much noise in the world as posi-
bic, to ide like Don Quixote, lance
in hand against windmill, seems to
fill their programme. But the real
evils which destroy the usefulness of
woman and narrow her sphere arc
either too deep or too high for them.
They see that she is enslaved by
some power, and lay it justly enough
at the door of defective education.
But the training they propose will
be an evil hardly less. 1t is not the
mental strengthening which the
American woman requires as much
as a moral tonic. The duties of the
day and hour; the relations which
grow out of them; the religious in
fuences which direct and adjust her
work fifty, and give her tn, only
interchangeable standard of conduct
all these things she can study out to
her own lasting good.

INDIGNANT.

The practice INDUCED in mot so
much now as formerly of Southern
men sending North to have their
printing done, is too much for Broth
err Speights, of the Griffin News.
Utterly unable to give this his in
proper expression in prose
he explodes in verse in this frantic
manner:
The man who cheats the Printer
Out of single cent
Will never reach that heavenly land
Where old Elijah went"
Now, being something of poet
ourself, in order to let the News man
know that he is not alone, we add
one verse-quoting the first line of
the above to begin with:
'The man who cheats the printer
Would auction off his wife.
Or sell his darned old overcoat
For a buck horn handle knife.
We turn the entire matter over to
Brother Harris for adjudication. -

THAT was a profound philosopher

THAT was a profound philosopher
who compared advertising to a
growing crop. He says: "The
farmer plants his seed, and while he
is sleeping the corn is growing. So
it is with advertising. While you
are sleeping or eating, your adver-
tisement is being read by thousands
of persons who never saw you or
heard of your business, nor never
would, had it not been for your adj
visement."

A FRIGHTFUL WARNING TO PA
RENTS,

A week or two ago family nam
ed Woodstock arrived in this city
from Westchcstor, N. Y, intending
to settle in the State, and accepted
the invitation Of an old acquaintance,
residing on Russell street, to stop
for week or two until they
had decided where to locate. Not
being suited with the city, Wood
stock took a trip to the interior and
pure based farm in Berrlen county.
He came back Saturday night, and
the family would have left Monday
only for the occurrence of sad at
fair due to the Puritanical ideas and
hard -heartedness of the father.
The youngest of the children is a
boy about four years. old, who, be-
ing a pet, has been allowed to sleep
with his parents. Sunday night the
Woodstocks, desiring to go to
church, an effort was made to get
the boy to go to bed with the older
brother. He was frightened and
timid and made great opposition,
saying "that he was afraid of bears
and wolves" The opposition irri-
tated the father, and he declared
that he would not go to church, and
that Charlie should go to sleep in
that bed. As the child kept crying
and teasing, the older one was made
to get up and sleep elsewhere This
did not help matters, of course, and
then Woodstock told the boy he
would lock the door and leave him
in the dark if he did not cease crying.
Frightened further, the lad contln-
ued weeping and beseeching, and
Woodstock did as he said he would.
The boy screamed at the top of his
voice for a few minutes, beat on the
door, and entreated to be taken out,
but the father was unrelenting as a
rock. The walls gradually died
away, the lad ceased to shout, and
after half an hour the door was OPEN
ed. He was not found asleep as
expected, but he was crouched down
ia a corner, his feet drawn up under
him, and it took only a moment to
convince the parents that the boy
had been rendered a lunatic or an
idiot. He laughed and talked to
himself, did not reply to question:
gave no one any notice, and when
the mother realized what had occur
ed she tainted away. Every effort
was made by the friends to bring
the boys reason back, but all failed
He would not speak, gave the other
children no notice, but wanted t
roll around on the floor aud play will
spools and sticks. A physician wa'
called on Monday and two more OF
Tuesday, but all were agreed tina
the boys reason had been affected by
his fright, and that he might be al
idiot for the rest of his days. The
circumstance has nearly broken the
mothers heart, and the father carrie;
a conscience which any criminal
short of murder would not enjoy.

CURE FOR BONE FELoN.-Of all
the painful feelings, can there be
any SO overwhelmingly painful as a
bone felon We know of none that
flesh is heir to. As this malady is
quite frequent, and subject of
much earnest consideration, we give
the latest recipe for its cure, which
is given by that high authority, the
London Lancet: GAS soon as the
disease is felt, put directly over the
spot a fly blister, about the size of
your thumb nail, and let it remain
for six hours, at the expiration of
which time, directly under the sur
face Of the blister may be seen the
felon which can be taken out with
the point of a needle or lancet"

LIFE.-Don't mistake life. Don't
draw wrong conceptions of what it
takes to make life. All there is of
life is LOVE. Ambition is but
crumbling straw to be burned by
time. 1t dies upon the lips, but en-
tiers not the heart to tighten and
make it truly glorious. All these
conquests-this adding of acres
this piling up wealth for others, is
nothing to the growing of that love
for others which will carry us safely
over the wondrous sea where those
whose hearts are heavy with
lust and passion, base and sell
fish, DESTROYS only for personal graft
fication, will sink to rise no more.

Few are aware how very protita-
BILE sugar-culture in the South is
when intelligently and theoretically
pursued. 1t is far better to be a
sugar than cotton planter. We
see an account in New Orleans pa
per of crop last year which yielded
757 hogsheads from 800 acres OF
land. As there is little more labor
in this than on a corn-crop, the
profit is easily figured, and can be
seen to be enormous.

PLEASURES OF MEMORT-THE Old
FOLKS

EOA4HHa
There never was so delightful an en-
tertainment given by the Old Folks in
all the years Of the revered association
as that Of yesterday. It was by all odds
the happiest day noted in the records OF
this body Of venerable men Thee crowd
gathered was large; but the feast
spread was rich and luxurious and
abundant. Happy were the ae-
oomplished women whose kind hearts
were full Of sympathy, when they be-
held exhibitions Of the tenderest, holiest
feelings sought to be ssnctified and per-
petuated bv this admirable society. 1t
was almost womanly task, in
which these old and young men
Were engaged, and it is not amazing
that the softest voices assumed sweeter
tones than was their won't when in
seeming rapture the "Star-Spangled
Banner'' was sung so charmingly.
Neitheris itstrsnge that Colonel LOoney
was eloquent when he pronounced fitting
eulogies upon the society, its members
that live and those that have died.
There was, too, in stories told by w. B.
WaIdran, constant recurrence to events
Of bygone years haIlowed by the tender
est recoIlect0ns. There were those who
danced as if to give expression even to
melancholy pleasure-as if the occasion
,,-ares significant Of buried hopes and of
haIf-forgotten delights Of the Oiden
time. Read the detailed incidents OF
this memorable celebration Of memOr-
able anniversary as given in another
place and let every good citizen who
would bind together the good and per-
petuate worthy memories in Memphis
social life ally his fame's fortunes with
the Old Folks Association.
