ONLY A GLOVE.

1t is only glove, Ted a lAdy's glove;
1t has lain in the desk where found it
For twenty long years, but the freshness Of love
And the glory Of youth cling around it.
Yes, there comes, Ted, whenever I see that glove,
vision af music and dancing,
And again. in my mind, the eyes Of dove
Into mine are tenderly glsncings
And clasp once again in the hand of mine
That glove and the soft hand within it:
And feel IN the waltz, through the glare and the
shine
That it trobs like .new-caught Hnnet
feel her ambrosial breath on my cheek
Like the scent of the linden blossom;
And know that she loves enough she does not
speak) E.f.
By the rise and fall Of her bosom.
Well, went to the Indies in sixty, Ted
And and Tush it's the brandy-and-water
Why, when came back she was dead-she was
And-I married Robinson's daughter.
Just hand me light and fresh cigar:
1t is foolish to keep such token,
When the girl who gave it is sleeping afar
In the land where the rest is unbroken.

Direct Southern Trade With Europe

A convention was in session in At
lanta, Ga, few days since, consisting
of southern and southwestern railway
and other transportation officials, may
ors of southern cities, and representa-
tives of commercial bodies, the objects
being to complete arrangements for di-
rect trade between the south and Eu-
rope, via the projected line of steamers
between Savannah and Liverpool. The
report of Mr.. Nelson Tiff, an agent APP
pointed to visit Europe and effect ar
engagements for such trade, with the
agreement finally effected by him with
the White Star and Empire lines of
steamers, places the matter before the
public in tangible shape, and offers low
rates from Savannah to Liverpool. Mr..
Tiff went at the desire of and reports
to committee appointed by the direct
trade convention, held at Atlanta in May
last, the committee consisting of the
presidents of the leading southern rail
roads. This combination of roads pro-
poses to fix through rates and make ar
engagements for prompt transportation
from western and southern points to
Savannah, and the White Star and EN-
pire lines agree to transport freight
from Savannah, via New York, to Liv-
erpool, on through bills. The rate to
be charged between New York and
Savannah is 81. so per ton, and at pres
ent rates the rate from Savannah to
is only SIS per ton.
After the report of Mr.. Tiff was read,
and the subject fully discussed by the
committee, the following resolution was
unanimously
RESOLVED, That we approve the ar
made, and recommend that
interior rates of freight should be
agreed upon by the officers of the roads
and that these rates, COM
bined with the ocean rates, should be
so as to give the amount of
rates on through bills of lad
ing between Liverpool and all points on
the respective railroads in the interior !;
and that the same material rates over
railroad lines shall operate from and to
Port Royal, Charleston and Brunswick,
as to and from Savannah.
After consultation, it was agreed by
the representatives of railroads present |
that the present pro rata share to the |
several railroads for each point on their
line, on through freights to New York,
should be the sum which, when COM
oined with the rate by the ocean line, |
should make the through rate to and |

Yellows in the Peach Tree.

The Gardeners Monthly says there is
no mystery whatever as to the cause of
the fyellows" in the peach tree
If you dig around tree with the yell
lows you will first be struck with a
mushroomy" smell. Picking out the
roots and examining them with a lens,
you will see millions of thread. like
fbres, which are the mycelia of fungi.
These eat the young fbres, and leave
only the main roots, through which all
the nutriment of the plant has to be
gathered and as the root is unable to
do much more than draw water the tree
becomes in a measure starved, and the
leaves become yellow, just as they
would be growing in poor soil, which,
though the plant might have plenty of
roots, furnished nothing for the roots
to eat. To have plenty of roots and no
food, is equivalent to having plenty of
food and no roots. The remedies
which look to the destruction of these
root parasites are employed. Hot water
has done it; so has weak solution of
salt others have found that a weak So
luton of potash succeeds.

How to Look YOuns-S1xteen.-Do
paint use vile Hair Restorers, but simply apply
Hagan's Magnolia Balm upon your face, neck and
hands, and use Lyons Kathairon upon your hair.
The Balm makes your complexion pearly, soft and
natural, and you can't tell what did it. 1t removes
freckles, tan, salowness ring-marks moth-patches,
etc., and in place of red rustic face, you have the
marble purity of an exquisite belle. 1t gives to
middle age the bloom of perpetual youth. Add
these effects to a splendid head of hair produced
by the Ksthairon, and lady has done her best in
way of adornment. Brothers will have no spinster
sisters when these articles are around.

ton of neutral tints in dress, and pre-
dicted the combination of tints and
shades upon the growth of taste and
skill which would lead to an expression
IN dress corresponding to symphonies
IN music. This idea has been ever since
and is now working itself out in various
ways. The composite costumes-that
is, costumes composed of two or three
shades of one color of silk, the bonnet
and other accessories of the toilet ar
ranged to harmonic with the general
plan-are the most highly distinguished
of any that are designed or worn, and de-
serve to be so, for they are works of
art requiring patience, taste, skill, and

genius in design, as we'll as courage In
