The Baby.

When baby comes into household,
it is only shapeless, red-faced thing,
with tiny doubled fists that move them.
selves about at nothing, and an appe.
tlte disproportionately large in compar-
ison with its other qualities
Yes, it comes as sort of monarch
that helpless little handful and it be-
gins to reign forthwith.
Its voice-not exactly the voice of
the turtle, either-being heard in the
land, all other sounds are forgotten.
1t matters not who has no dinner 50
that he has his, nor who is tired 50 that
he enjoys himself: Ordinary occupa-
tions cease, and group gathers about
the cradle to see him put his fist in his
mouth. A small fringe of hair on the
back of his head is more beautiful, in
the eyes Of household, than the floating
locks Of any golden blonde on
earth and while some adult is quietly
advised to have his aching wisdom
tooth pulled out, and not bother any
more about it, the family rush pell-mell
to the cradle side, to see that wonderful
thing-baby's first tooth. peeping
through h its gums.
King Baby, do you know anything
about all this ? If you did. you might
look forward very sadly. In after life
there will be no such alteration for you.
Words Of wisdom will fall unnoticed
from your lips then, though when you
have learned to say "bla bla !" the
household now goes into ecstacies.
Your little natural kicks and wrig-
giles, that are so charming, are nothing
to the hardwork that you will do with
out d thank you" from any one.
Your sleeping, eating and smiling will
interest no one but yourself when you
are man. 1t is well that you do not
know it. But now you are a king, and,
In truth home is made happy by such
little monarch. Reign on. l am
one OF your subjects, and pity any one
so stern and cold that he does not bow a
little before the great grand Llama, the
Baby of the House. ~

A Poor Unfortunate.

[London Letter to the Washington Republican,
The fashionable residents in the
ighborhood Of Kensingnton Gardens
have just been startled by sensational
piece Of scandal and melancholy suicide.
A short time since celebrated leader
Of the.demimonde, who lived in mag
ni6cence at Kensington, succeeded in
winning the affections of fast young
gentleman Of high social position, and,
Notwithstanding the opposition of his
relatives, he married her. The next
day they left for Paris. There, it ap-
pears, the bridegroom plunged into the
most reckless expenditures, and lost enor-
nous sums at gaming. In less than
four months he had squandered all of
his own and his wife's money. They
returned together about month since.
and took up their abode in her man
sion. About two weeks since he was
induced by some means to leave her,
and return to his fathers house. His
friends insisted on his applying for a
divorce, on the ground that he had
been duped into marriage. Proceed
ings were commenced and the sum-
mons served on the unlucky woman.
Yesterday morning she was found dead
on the floor of her bed room, having
stabbed herself in the heart. She left
a most pathetic letter, directed to her
husband, which was clinched in her
left hand, together with his portrait.
She accused him of being the cause of
her death, and with treating her with
the basest ingratitude. She beggared
herself by supplying him with money,
and even the furniture and plate in
her house, together with the house it,
self, was hopelessly mortgaged. This
"poor unfortunate was considered
one of the most beautiful women in
London. She was tall, slender, and
exquisitely moulded, and magnificent
head and shoulders, and lustrous dark
eyes. From documents found in her
writing desk it was ascertained that
more than year ago she had saved her
husband (then- her lover) from utter
ruin and disgrace by giving him $50, 900
to cancel his tlefalcation of some funds
in the bank in which he was employed.
She had also given him other large
amounts of money previous to marri-
age, and had really married him to try
to reform him, and at the same time to
reclaim herself. The affair has caused
. profound sensation among the aristo.
cratic folks Of the West end, as the
young gentleman, Notwithstanding his
known extravagance and fastness, moves
in the best society.

Aunt Betsey "Riled Up."

"I declar if I wanr't riled up" said
Aunt Betsey Green, dropping the knit.
ting work into her lap, and pushing her
spectacles up over her border: d" I de.
clare if warn't! If I could only have
taken that man by the collar, as used
to my Reuben when he didn't toe up
to suet me, I'd have given him such a
shaking as he never heard on, I'll be
bound!
"There he sat in that rocking-chair
his feet on the fender, and kept growl-
ing out at Lily Jane to bring him his
boots, or fasten his collar, or some such
unreasonable thing, all the while that
she was trying to dress them four young
ones, and had the headache so she
looked more like ghost than created
woman. If | Was in that ere place they
call Legislator, I'll bet there'd be law
passed to build penitenshry, or some
other kind Of pen, for such critters
as he ls-with no mercy on a woman
whether she's sick or we'll, just keep
ing up their you do this or you do
that from sun rising to sun setting.
But then there's Lily Jane, she's
most as much to blame as he is. If
she'd had bit Of spunk, he never'd
have got her under his thumb that
way. Most likely he begun to order
her round before the honeymoon was
set, when she hadn't cot her eyes open
no more'n three days old kitten, and
thought she be blest forever, cause
she'd got her neck in the same yoke
with his'n. If she amt found out her
mistake, and had some tears to shed
over cracked idols,' as they tell about
in poetry, don't know what kind of
stuff she's made of.
When was married-thank nv
lucky stars-I didn't get tied to any
such kind of crockery Reuben wasn't
uncommon handsome to look at to be
sure, any one might have thought of a
brown earthen plate side of a china
vase, comparing him with such whis-
kered, scented up chap as Lily James
husband; but can tell you he is just
what I took him to be. and never shed
one single tear finding that my idol
must be handled careful, fused over,
waited on and run for, to keep in good
humor without fear Of breakage.
Il did feel kind of spiteful when
Lizy Jane sot her head up and acted
like she'd crow over me cause she'd got
city husband; but every since stop
ped there, I've felt real Christian about
it.
Il tell you, gals, when a chap asks
you to stand up before the parson with
him, you find out, whether he can stir
out of rocking-chair long enough to
find his boots, or not, and whether you
are to be head waiter or helpmeet after
you arrive in County of Matrimony,
State of Bliss" ."-Er.

FAMILY CIRCLE,
Grange Song.

Respectfully inscribed to Belvidere Grange No. 81
P. of H. by the author.
Poetry is the language of the emotions
and when men seek to express thei,
thoughts in verse, we may be certain that
their convictions have reached down into
their hearts.
We print the following, coming from a
farmer who has grown old in toll and
whose hands are more familiar with the
plow and spade than with the pen, for the
thoughts that it contains: :.
(Air, The Fine Old English Gentleman)
l Come farmers all and loud we CALL
You need not think it strange,
There is good news for all who choose
By uniting at the Grange.
Chorus: Like true and noble Patron
That lives in modern times
Like true and noble Patron
That lives in modern times
While rob'd and heeced on every hand,
1t Is time to have change
Farmers De bold, power we hold
BY uniting at the Grange.
Chorus.
3 Come one and all, both great and small,
Within certain range
Farmers up stand, your rights demand,
by uniting at the Grange.
Chorus.
When ere confusion, worse confused,
Which must be re-arranged,
Patrons that's true, this can do,
By uniting at the Grange.
Chorus.
5 Come men of toll who till the soil
And have long been bounds in chains,
We will unite, all errors right
By uniting at the Grange.
Chorus
With farmers right, curb tyrants' might
Trust God for he don't change,
lie will help them that help themselves
BY uniting at the Grange.
Chorus.
