BEECHER's BOBTAIL FLUsH.-Not
far from me lives an intelligent negro
Lad, who Is considered an oracle in
the society in which he moves. His
employment is servant at a club
house, where he has picked up quite a
knowledge of the white folks. and
keeps himself generally well posted
on the events of..theIday. Called upon
by his colored friends to explain the
Beecher matter, he said:
'fYOu see, it's lis like a game o. draw.
Beecher it was his blind; everybody
took a hand. Miss. Woodruff she
makes de fus play; den dis man Bacon
he come in. When Bacon come in
Mass Tilton follow, COS he had a
good ham. Mass Moulton he follered
in COS he thought Tilton was a-goin'
to be archaeological in kinder
quiet like. Then de small fry, them
fellers with deuces an trays, they
come in COS it looked like a good pot.
Mass Beecher pick up his hand an
he find a fow (four) flush. Being his
blind, he think he play smart and
raise 'em all out-so he raise 'em the
limit. Dey all pass out 'cept Tilton
and MoultOn. Tilton he draw one card,
L
better 'em. Moulton he draw two
cards to free aces and take in par
jacks. Beecher he draw one card.
Tilton he feel kinder weak on his han,
an bet white chip. Moulton he know
Beecher on de bluff, so he jes follers
wild q white chip. Beecher he don't
look at his ham tall, but jes go rite
back de limit. Tilton he feel kinder
weak den. He feel he can beat Beech
er, but he t'ink Moulton kin beat
Beecher, too, but he 'fraid Moulton
get skeered an pass out. Finally
Tilton he call, kinder hesitatin' like,
and den Moulton he jes bounce Beech
er. Dat kinder startle Beecher, and

TO MISS KATIE H

40 past battered Paphian boEVe-y
Where fairies tripped in EiaR glee,
Fer had bloom or beautlOus flower
That truthful taste could match with
thee.
The maids who twine the garland bright
To deck the Gheber's Idol Sun,
Have smiles that vie with his in light,
But not 80 bright As thine, proud one
Nareissa, Fairy Persian Maid,
And fancy's Naiads Of the sea,
The classic mind must robe in shade.
When truth or fancy pictures thee.
Thy claims OF passion and of soul
These verbal ideas seem to claim,
Though softer hands have raised the bewl
To toast thy beauty and thy name.
But in thy faith, perchance, thou 1T see,
Tho charmed ones round thee stand,
This little crown Of Poesie,
Tho nung them by an humble hand.
Aud II that rythmie crown, fair maid,
One moment win glance from thee,
The Plebian poet will be paid.
If thou'lt but smile, queenly fee.
Twill she'd a light in mem'rys zone,
Which, when In dust that crown thou 1t
east,
viii dazzle like the Tyrian throne,
As long as life and mcm'ry last.
Such as these all hearts would own
While Times terre,tial lapse endures,
Enskied on Loves celestial throne,
And diademed with KOh-i-nOOrs.

THE ARroF ''MAKE-UP."-Donn
Piatt, describing visit to a cos
metic establishment in New York
City, says:
"What," we asked, ''are the arti-
cIes that go to make the beautiful
woman 2"
"Well, first of all is our vegetable
enamel, perfectly harmless, that
gives the most delicate white-I
may say dazzling - complexion
known to the female world. See,"
he continued, taking q china pot
from the counter, "this is put on ea-
silly with a small sponge. Permit
me, madam; it is soon removed and
leaves no trace" and saying this,
he applied = small quantity to the
forehead of our companion. The
result OH the face of clear brunette
was startling. The marble smooth
ness, and at the same time the sat
my texture, If we may use such an
expression, was marvellous. Then
he took another sponge and applied
a most beautiful blush, 3 rose-color,
upon the white, that was perfectly
charming in its natural and soft
flush. "And now," he went on,
''here is an exquisite instrument
with which to trace the delicate
blue veins that, when done, defy the
microscope of science"
"But how is it possible to make
the new face and the old shoulders
match 2"
''By making all new. The face,
neck, shoulders and arms have to be
treated all alike"
"And does this artificial process
end here ?" we asked.
"Oh, not at all; we are only be-
ginning. The eyelashes and the eyes
have to be treated. The eyebrows
receive especial attention, We can
not illustrate with you, madam; ma
ture has done so much"
He might well say this, for it is
only once i'll q million such beanti-
ful eyes, eyelashes and brows are
gwen a woman. He called to a
young lady of the establishment,
and said, "Miss Blank, will you per-
nit me2''
She pleasantly assen lad, and ia
king a small ivory tablet he placed
il under the eyelashes of one eye,
and then touching them dexterous-
ly and at the same time with the
most delicate art, he made the lashes
so decided, so pronounced, they
seemed to actually grow. He then
penciled the brow, and, when done,
the effect was most decided. The
young lady was a blonde, and with
one eye treated and the other not
treated the result was very decid-
ed.
Certainly this is all" we said.
'Not all. We give a delicate tint
to the ear, a rosy, steel color TO the
nails. We have powders for the
teeth; we leave nothing uncared for
that goes to make perfection of a
beautiful woman"
"And are these things in general
use 2"
Certainly; you cannot find bril-
liant complention that has not been
made so by art, We read with
great pleasure of the beautiful wom-
en- of the fashionable circles of
Washington and the summer re-
sorts, for we know where they
come from"

Kansas Tribune: Good old corn,
for a small season, in disrepute
Luxurious idlers around costly
boards came into the habit of sneer-
ing at il, and even now and then an
enthusiastic adviser of the farmers
thought this was made too much q
corn country, while most were seek
ing to raise something that would
consume corn, or to raise something
not so easily produced and there
fore more remunerative. Now,
however, corn, temporarily in dan
ger of being deposed, is acknowl-
edged king, his subjects are loyal,
and he was never so near their
hearts as now.
With what care will the fortunate
farmer, blessed with a crop of corn,
husband and hoard his scanty stock.
The bowl of mush and milk, "by
homespun beauty poured" will a.
gain be q dish to be proud of, and q
sickly nubbin will be treated re-
spectfully as q lineal descendent of
q royal line. As never before, the
farmer will study the tricks of his
trade; steaming and cutting and
economical seeding, and few and far
between will be these common hogs
to whom corn will be flung with
the reckless extravaganza which is
the prevalent characteristic of the
Western farmer.
What corn there is will be early
harvested and carefully binned'
The fodder, early cut and stacked,
will be a very superior quality, and
there is a great amount of it in the
country. Prairie hay cuts but q
scant half ton to the acre, but not
overripe and unbleached or washed
by soaking rains, is believed to be OF
excellent EQUALITY. This crop will
be stacked as seldom before, but
still the stock must have a little
corn, and with an JUNCTION never
felt before we can echo the senti-
ment of the closing verse of Whitti-
er's sweet corn song:
Then shame on all the proud and vain,
Whose folly laughs TO scOrn
| The blessing of our hardy grain,
Our wealth Of golden corn.
Let earth withhold her goodly root,
Let nifdew blast the rye,
Give to the worm the orchards fruit,
The wheat deld 10 the ny;
But let the good old crop adorn
| The hills our fathers trod:
still, let Us, for his golden corn.
Send up our thanks to God

By glancing at the returns for the

She did before the war. Her harbor

FARMERS CONVENTION.-The
land-holders and farmers of Hay
wood county convened at the court
house in Brownsville, a short time
since. On motion of w. W. Bond,
]. A. Taylor was chosen chairman
of the Convention, who in a clear,
forcible speech explained the objects
of the meeting, 10 wit: a complete
reformation of our system of farm
ing, to abandon the One-crop sys-
ten; the universal cultivation of the
cereals, roots and grasses; to make
each planter seli-sustaining and in
dependent; the cultivation of cot
ton TO be Of secondary cOnsidera-
tion, and the surplus crop of every
farmer, by means of which, we will
fill our farms with plenty, improve
and manure our exhausted lands,
and restore our county TO its for
mer fertility and prosperity.
On motion of w. W. Bond, the
following resolution was adopted
We, the undersigned farmers. of
Haywood county, believing it 30 be
for the best interest and beneft of
the agricultural portion of said
county, do hereby agree and bind
ourselves and those under our con-
troll, that for the next three years,
dating from the lst day of January,
1875, we will not plant or allow to
be planted, in cotton, over one
fouth of our tilable land, the bal
auce Of said lands TO be cultivated
in such manner, and in such pro-
ducts as to Us as individuals may
seem most meet aud proper.

SOCIAL MANNERS IN OLD TIMES.

When left, sixty years ago, indus
try and economy were the handmaids
OF virtue, contentment and happiness.
The women and girls clothed the fami-
", cooked the meals, and did the vari-
Gus work, all contented and happy, vol
unfairly labOring to secure a competen-
cy for the household. Families in
those days were not enervated and
ruined by luxuries-what is called
high living and fashion. They were
clothed at home by their honest labor,
the boys in their jeans and copperas
cotton, and the girls III their beauti-
full stripes of cotton and linsev.
Dresses were made to fit their persons
and develop their natural and beauti-
full forms. One cannot tell now which
is the girl and which is the dress. I
have looked about over this large as
sembly to see if I could not find one
of those beautiful striped dresses set
ing off the rosy mountain pinks of
the present day, but the ancient Gus
toms have disappeared since l have
been gone. In that day but few
mothers and daughters ever had a
calico dress, to say nothing of the
silks, cashmeres, muslins, grapes and
poplins of the present day.
In those days We had our sugar
camps, made our own sugar; coffee
was bought at our commercial cities
and only used on Sundays. Milk,
the best and most healthy beverage in
the world, was daily used, and the
rose bloomed and played upon every
girls cheek. There was no calomel
Doctors bills to pay. We had meet
ing houses in those days, made of logs
and clap boards. We called il going
to meeting. The elegant phrase now
is to attend church, and go in bug
J gies and carriages. We walked from
