bama, announcing the expected arrival
of the United States troops says, "the
whites rejoice thereat." Were the whites
not confident in the justice and right of
their position they would perhaps not
rejoice at the interference of troops.
Doubtless they have no fears from the
use of white soldiers in their midst
But their use is Objectionable to the
people at large, who have an interest in
the matter as well as those living in the
vicinity where the trouble is alleged.
1t is believed that the presence Of
troops is unnecessary, and that difficult
ties Of this nature ought to be settled by
the States themselves. Such has been
the case; and so long as the General
Government steps in as the third party
to shield the factions from each other
so long will they act in the lawless man.

well to let them fight their own battles
and thus will they be taught the neces.
sity of obedience to law and the necessi.

TO DESTROY INsECTs.-Hot alum-water is
a recent suggestion as an insecticide. 1t will
destroy red and black ants, cockroaches, spi'
ders, chinch bugs, and all the crawling pests
which infest our houses. Take two pounds OF
alum and dissolve it in three or four quarts OF
boiling water; let it stand on the fire until
the alum dssolves then apply it with brush
while nearly boiling hot, to every joint and
crevice in your closets, bedsteads, pantry
shelves, and the like. Brush the crevices in
the floor of the skirting or mop board, if you
suspect that they harbor vermin. If, in
whitewashing a ceiling, plenty Of alum is
added to the lime, it will also serve to keep
insects at distance. Cockroaches will flee
the paint which has been washed in cool alum
water. Sugar barrels and boxes can be freed
from ants by drawing wide chalk mark just
round the edge of the top of them: The
mark must be unbroken or they will creep
over it, but continuous chalk line half an
inch in width will set their depredations at
naught. Powdered alum or borax will keep
the chinch bug at respectable distance, and
travellers should always carry package of it
in their hand bags, to scatter over and under
their pillows, in places where they have reason
to suspect the presence of such bed-fellows.-

A FABLE.
THE TREE AND THE VINE.

"Pease help me up, just little, where
can see," pleaded a Misunderstanding little
Vine, creeping up to Sapling in the forest
"To be sure 1 WILL said the generous
young tree. "Come on"
"Beware~ whispered neighboring Oak,
whose massive trunk had braved the storms
of more than century, and many of whose
branches we're larger than the whole Sapling
"Beware! that Vine is poisonous and will do
you HARM"
"What! that little bit of Vine?'' replied
the conceited as we'll as generous Sapling
"Nonsense! I am strong enough to help
twenty such Vines as that, even if they were
enemies, as you say, and not the pretty, in
nocent friends they are"
"Beware!" muttered the aged counsellor
81 have seen trees as conceited as yourself
bitterly repent of doing just what you now
propose to do"
"Fiddlesticks You are behind the times,
Mr.. Oak. Why, I have withstood storms be-
fore which your hundred year old brothers
have fallen, and to which you yourself have
yielded great branches. Come on, Miss Vine,
and take my arm."
The foolish Sapling extended one of his
lower branches to the Vine, who tenaerly
clasped it. The old Oak sighed and remained
silent, while the Sapling gleefully laughed,
and, as he felt the soft touch of the Vine.
said:
"Ah, Miss Vine, you are charming com,
panion. You and will show that lightning
Scared, gnarled, old fogy of an Oak that
we were born IN al age Of progress"
"How good and clever you are" murmur,
ed the Vine, nesting closer to him.
She was very loving Vine. She hugged
the young tree more and more closely, twined
herself slowly about his body, spread out over
his arms, and fettered them, climbed up over
his head, and in few years had completely
shrouded him with leaves, shutting off the
bright sunshine, and breathing out poison
Gus breath, so that, after some faint struggles
to obtain warmth and food, the tree died a
lingering and remorseful death.
An evil habit may at first appear harmless
and pleasant, but let it once get hold upon
you, and it will twine itself closely about you
shutting out all that is good and pure, until
you smother to death in its poisoned atmos'

THE TIME TO BE PLEASANT.

"Mothers cross p said Maggie, complaining
out in the kitchen, with pout on her lips
Her aunt was busy ironing; but she looked
up, and answered Maggie:
''Then, it is the time for you to be pleas
ant and helpful Mother was awake great
deal in the night with the poor baby"
Maggie made no reply. She put on hel
hat, and walked off into the garden. But q
new idea went with her. "The very time tc
be helpful and pleasant is when other people
are cross. Sure enough" thought she; "that
would be the time when it would do the most
good. 1 remember, when I was sick last
year, was so nervous that, if anybody spoke
to me, I could hardly help being cross; and
mother never got angry or out of patience
but was just as gentle with me. | ought tc
pay it back now and | WILL" And she
sprang up from the grass where she had
thrown herself, and turned, face full OF
cheerful resolution, toward the room where
her mother sat soothing and tending fretful
teething baby. Maggie brought out the pret'
ty ivory balls, and began to jingle them for
the little one. He stopped fretting, and
smile dimpled the corner of his lips.
"Couldn't l take him out to ride in his
carriage, mother it is such nice morning?
she asked.
81 should be so glad if you would !" said
her mother.
The little hat and sack we're brought, and
baby was soon ready for his ride.
"I'll keep him as long as he is good" said
Maggie, "and you must lie on the sofa and
get nap while I am gone. You are looking
dreadful tired"
The kind words and the kiss that accom-
panied them were almost too much for the
mother. The tears rose to her eyes, and her
voice trembled as she answered.:
"Thank you, dearie; it will do me world
of good, if you can keep him out an hour
and the air will do him good. My head
aches badly this morning."
What a happy heart beat in Maggle's
bosom as she trundled the little carriage up
and down on the walk She had done real
good. She had given back little of the
help and forbearance that had so often been
bestowed upon her. She had made her moth.
er happier, and given her time to rest. She
resolved always to remember and act upon
her aunt's good word: ",fhe very time to be
helpful and pleasant is when everybody is
tired and cross. ."--The IKeAspring.
