Adde'S Wisdom.

GOOD afternoon, my dearies ! and
wouldn't you be kind enough to let q
poor old body sit down and rest her
bones awhile?" The children stopped
their play in an instant to see who could
be the owner of that squeaky, Guaverine
voice, and saw standing in the doorway
the funniest looking little old woman
imaginable.

an armchair toward the door and then
running to bring a glass Of water.
"Oh, thanky, thanky, dear !" and the
old woman dropped into the chair in SO
shaky a way that the children thought
she was going to fall to pieces.
"Now you needn't any of you be

JOSH BILLINGS on LAFFING.

what q man had for dinner hi seeing

While thare are sum who don't make

others who laff Just as q rat does who
haz been caught in o steel trap with his

There is no mistake in the assershun
that it is q comfort to hear sum laffs
that cum romping out of a mans mouth
like a distrik skool of young girls just

no bit of good smell about it.

give me the laff that looks out of q
mans eye, fust, tew see that the coast

the air for a moment with a shower of
silvery-tongued sparks, then steals bak

THE experiment of tea-growing in Cal
ifornia is said to promise success. The
climate of a large part of the tea district
of China finds a parallel in that of the
central Southern States, and there seems
to be no reason why Hyson and Bohea
should not come from cotton and old
rice fields. The necessity for ocean
transportation would be done away
with, and the native fragrance of the
leaf would thus be preserved.

Above LYRIC.
I miss her at the break Of day,

I miss her at the break Of day,
And muse upon her name
In all my moods, or grave, or gay,
miss her just the saMe.
And when at dusk the zephyr light
Breathes DER the ripping air,
wander lonely through the night,
And yet she Is not there.
I think Of her, and wander much
With whom she nov may be;
The memory of her tone and touch
Alone remains to me.
Another sits beside her now,
Another hears her signs;
Toys with the ringlets on her brow,
And gazes in her eyes.
Say, shall I grosn beneath my grief?
Tell me, shall I repine?
Sink to the sere and yellow leaf,
Since she's no longer mine?
Good gracious !. nothing of the kind;
/ miss her, 1t is true;
I miss her, certainly, but mind,
I'm precious glad I do!

Looking for a Blessing.

"What makes you think SOP" asked
her mother.
because 1 see one of Mr.. Ossipee's
men coming this minute, and he is driv-
ing a white COW up to our very gate"
Alpie's words were verified a moment
later by the appearance of the man and
the COW at the little barn. Mrs. Luce
went out to learn what was meant by it,
and was told that Mr.. Ossipee would
send two men to search for Blessing the
morning following, and, until she should
be found, he had sent another COW to
remain at the brown house.
"Tell Mr.. Ossipee 1 think he is awful
good" said Alpie; "and if 1 hadn't
been SO far to-day, 1 would go and tell
him so my own SELF"
MIR. Ossipee had found plenty of time
in which to think about Alpie Luce that
day and, sitting an unwilling prisoner
under the porch of his house, he had
been putting himself in the child's place
very often, and, to tell the truth, he had
wanted a good excuse to send up and
find out whether or not Alpie was safe
ly at home, and he had happily thought
of the cow as a sufficient. reason for
sending.
As for Alpie Luce, tired as she was,
she could not look tired, and she did
not act tired one bit. Her face shone
with Joy, and the frequent hugs and kis-
ses that she bestowed on her mother
and Aunt Saidee were only given as
expressions of the Joy she felt in know
ing on the morrow the great "editor
man" would come to see Aunt Saidee.
When Alpie went to bed, she fell
asleep with n hand pressed to her
lips, lest she should tell the good news
in her sleep.
She thought she should awaken very
early and make the little sitting-room
look as nice as ever she could, and she
duo hope that Aunt Saidee would have
her chair fixed up real pretty" and o
how she did long to ask her to put on
her "last new dress !" but Alpie was
faithful to her promise. She did not
tell, and so the morning came, and Miss
ferley prepared for the day, quite IN
conscious of the coming event.
Alpie slept long and late. When she
awakened, dressed, and went down the
stairs, there sat Aunt Saidee, as dainty
as any other lady, in her simple white
dress.
Her chair had been drawn under the
porch at the front door of the house,
that she might look upon some of her
Oldest friends-the mountains. I can
not tell you how large a portion of the
iady's life the mountains thereabout
formed, but this L know, that she had
learned to study them from morning
until night and although her feet had
not touched of them since Alpie's
oaby-days, her thoughts went to them
constantly. On this morning they
seemed very near. Aunt Saidee felt

UNDER our treaty with Japan we are
bound to offer our mediatorial services

Luce, who had never known her to

toned Alpie.

Luce and Alpie.

"Oh ! oh !" they cried in a breath.
You're not going to marry the editor
man."
"Oh hush !" cried the little lady.
"You know better. I was going to say
that 1 had made an engagement to
write every week for the Weekly Bless
ing, and 1 am to get money enough for
us all to live upon"
"Then 1 just hope our Blessing has
gone to some folks that are a great deal
poorer than we are, just autuI poor,
Aunty-poor enough to be awful glad
to get her"
l think if the little boy who took off
the cows bell lest the owner in the val
ley below should hear the sound of it.,
could have heard Alpie's words, he
would have left the bell on, and enjoyed
the tinkle of it many days.
"That is right, Alpie, even though
you did say awful poor and awful glad.
1 hope SO too. Perhaps Blessing knew
OF the good things in store for us, and
so took herself off where she would be
more of a Blessing than to us, for now
We a go away from here when the

THE LITTLE FOLKS,
Three Little Valentines.

Three Little Valentines.
Dear little Carrie,
Daughter of Harry,
sits with her valentine on her knee;
She's dimpled and darling and two years old,
So sensitive shy and so trustful cold,
She's sweet as a baby can be.
In a baby's doubling, dreaming way,
She sits and wonders, with brownies eyes
Fixed on her marvellous painted prize
yellow Yankee doodle
on a pony red as fire,
Followed by a sky-blue poodle
Tro.ting gaily through the mire.
"Curious that money
Will buy anything so funny"
Happy little one would say
Could she talk-she Is so wise.
In q whirl of golden hair,
Bright and sweet as morning air,
In flies little Fatima,
Promoting at her ma,
Crying, "See, oh! mamma see!
All this valentine for me"
a wee. wee man in q big cooked hat,
And trowsers as snug as the skin of a rat,
And Under his lean, brown chin, n fiddle
And a wisp OF 4 bow just going TO begin.
By his merry mad eyes
You feel at a glance
he IS going to play
And you're going to dance.
His funny mouth stretched from ear to ear,
lie laughs with n laugh you can almost hear,
Til all his white teeth in a double row
Seem to say:
"whir-r away,
o resin the bow,
For the heel and the toe
Are in for a jolly good time, you know"
Starry-eyed Annie
Eldest of the three
Pouts a little, murmuring.
ais there none for me ~
Mamma, laughing slyly,
Whispers her, "Come out
And see if We can find
VIVA. St. Valentines about"
See , jus: at the garden gate he stands:
/ know him by the vesture quaint,
The fleece white hair and the carmine cheek,
And the smile of one who need not speek.
And something is shining in his hands
All rose and silver with gay ~conceit;
The grace and seeming of a saint
Doth make him bright from brow to feet.

day at the Greenlsw Opera House
While other portions of the State and o.

they we're content to bide their time
until the near approach Of the election
The Radicals, knowing they are in a
hopeless minority. have rested on then
oars, deeply anxious to see 8 division II

to disappointment. 1t only remains to
bring out full vote on election day &c
give Radicalism her finishing stroke ii
Shelby county as well as all over the
State. The campaign may be said to
open tonight. 1t will be brief and spir-
tied. Only two weeks intervene from
tomorrow until the election. The legis-
lstive candidates, too, are in the field,
aud will make lively canvass. 1t rests
with them to confer with the people and
to discuss more in detail questions Of
local Importance touching the interests
of every man in Shelby county. While
they will doubtless be elected, it IS none
the less duty to mingle with the peo-
pie, ascertain their wants, and endeavoI
to present their views, as FAR as formed
upon those matters which most nearly
concern the great body Of the people. Lei
everybody go to the speaking Thursday
