IF the Tribune intends to undertake to
explsin or refute all the opposition alleged
against Mr.. Greeley, charge by charge, it
viii have its hands full. Better let them
drift on. Whatever he wrote in the Tr;-
bune against the South has been fully
amnestied, and if the Northern Democra'
cy can't be as magnanimous as We are,
without our cue for passion, their pre-.
JUDGES must be deep-rooted, indeed. We
care nothing about Mr.. Greeley's past.
It is his future that we have to dea! with,
and it is that alone we are concerned

WHY SAN DIDN'T MARRY.-A
yankeeealling himself "Sam Hope
full" who has written some very
good things, tells right out in
Injecting. why he never married
after three attempts. he says:
Il once courted a gal by name
of Deb Hawkins. I made up my
mind to get married. Well, while
VIC were going to the deacon's i
stepped into q mad puddle and:
spattered the mud over Deb's new
gown made out Of her grand
mothers old chintz petticoat.
When we got to the deacon's he
asked Deb if she would take me
for her lawful welded husband.
"No!" says she. "Reasen," says
I. "Why," says she, II have
taken q mislikcn to you"
Well, it was all Up then, but I
gave her a string Of beads, a few
kisses and some other notions, and
made it all up with her. So we
went up to the deacon's q second
time. I was bound to get even
with her this time, so when the
deacon asked me if | would take
her for my welded wife I says
NO, I should 90 no such thing"
"Why,' says Deb, what on the
airlh is the matter now ?" Why"
says I, Il have taken q misliken
to you"
"Well. it was all over again, but
I gave her q new apron and a few
other trinkets, and We went up
again to. get married. We expect
ed that we would be tied so fast
that all natur couldn't separate US;
but when we asked the deacon if
he would marry us be said, 'No, I
shan't do 20 such a thing" "Why,
what on the airth is the reason ?"
says we. "Whv," says he "l've
taken d mlsliken to both of you"
Deb burst out crying, the deacon
burst out scoldiug, and I burst
ont laughing, ard such a set Of
busters You never did see and
that is the reason 1 never got
married. Ny chance has gone.

The Independent Farmer

Let sailors sing of the windy Deep,
Let soldiers praise their a-mor;
But in my heart this toast III keep
''The Independent farmer"
When first the rose in robe Of green
Unfolds its crimson lining,
And round his cottage home is seen
The honeysuckle shining.
When banks Of bloom their sweetness ,ielt
To bees that gather honey,
He drives his team across the field,
When skies are sofs and sunny.
The blackbird elucks behind the plough,
The quail pipes loud and clearly, =
Yoa orchard hides behind its bough
The home ne loves so dearly.
The gray old barn doors unfold
His ample store IN measure;
More rich than heaps Of boarded gold;
A precious, blessed treasure.
While yonder in the porch there stands -
dis wife, the fair loVe-charmer;
The sweetest rose on all the lands
Of the Independent farmer.
To him the spring comes dancingly,
To him the summer bushes,
The autumn smiles with yellow ray.
His sleep old winter bushes.
He cares not how the world may move,
No doubts nor fears confound him
HIS little fock is linked in love,
And household angels round him.
He trusts to God, and loves his wife,
Nor griefs nor ills may harm her!
He's natures nobleman il life
The independent farmer.

SDACk-LOG STUDIES"

| In this unique series of papers, now appearing
| IN SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY, Mr.. Warner, au-
| thor of ''My Summer in a Garden" is doing his
| best work. Here we have--in a pleasant fiction
OF a talking group in front of an old-fashioned
country bnck-log-philosoph suggestion, s.ir-
casm that smiles, not sneers bright bits of de-
scripton, social out-looks-and enlivening all, a
fresh s"crisp, yet juicy'' and delicious humor.
BACKLOG STUDIES have been quickly APP
| preciated by the press. The New York Times
says that these sketches, "for light, airy but
genuine delineations of character, have rarely
been surpassed by any writer of the present
day" The Boston Transcript says that ''ior
delicaey of toneh, quaint sentiment, and quiet
humor BACKLOG STUDIES are the best of
things in their way The Nation thinks that
BACKLOG STUDIES No. Ill. 'renews and
increases the evidence given in his previous pei
formances that we have in him q humorist of
real merit" Writing of one of these papers,
the N. Y. Mail says it is the ''best thing he has
written, and the best thing in its way any
American or English magazine has had for many
n day. and the Boston Commercial Bulletta
says: 'BACK-LOG STUDIES constitute de-
cded hit in magazine literature" Another of
these delightful papers will appear in the April
number of SCItIBNER'S MONTHLY, which
viii be for sale by all booksellers and newsdeal-
ers. "a ayear, SIS cents a number. 'FH

JAKE 1T TO YOUR HOME.

-
1t is so much the fashion nowadays to con-
vey information and moral truths and senti-
ments, in the form of stories, that even some
popular lecturers have adopted this style of ad-
dress The mass of people, especially the young,
demand stories to such a degree, that papers
hiled with sensational novels and exciting,
trashy stuff, have a wide circulation. To fore
stall this taste, and supply something better to
the masses, the publishers of HEARTH AND
HOME, in addition to the usual variety of that
paper, have engaged corps of first-elass WRITER'S
among whom are jean 1ngelow, Edward Egg
gleston Mary Il. Dodge, Louisa M Alcott, Ed
ward Everett Hale, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps,
Harriet Prescott Spofford, Rose Terry, Maria r.
Oakley Lucia G. Runkle, and many others, who
furnish to this journal the best original stories,
of the pnrest character and highest grade--thus
conveying much instruction in a pleasing form.
Resides these, the WEEKLY HEARTH AND
HOME contains a large amount OF frst-class
reading, editorials, literature, art, science
amusement; instruction for the housekeeper
the gardener, the farmer; capital department
for children and youth; the news of the day /;
financialtaud market reports, etc. Its engravings
costing over $25, 900 year. are of high order of
merit, unsurpassed by any illustrated paper in
he world. Altogether, HEARTH AND HOME
is such journal as may be safely and very pro-
fitably taken into any family. 1t is supplied at
the low rate of 50 a year; four copies for ST. !;
and ten or more copies for 80 90 each. .n' >
