THE CONTROLLERS REPORT

The report of Comptroller Woolford
makes ii very satisfactory showing of
the financial affairs of the State, except
with regard to the debts owing it and
not collected. The total amount in
the Treasury during the fiscal year
was $2,77l, ,S49.5S, and the disburse-
ments $2,2S7,03S.3G leaving balance
of $lSi,810.22. OF the State debt $453,-
29G had been redeemed during the year,
and $l52, 800, used in payment of the
State subscription to the stock of rail
road companies in Charles and st.
Mary's counties. Although the reve-
nue. was less than in 1872, the falling
off must be ascribed to the fact that IA
number of the railroad companies, coal
companies and National banks are re-
sisting the payment of taxes imposed
by law, and consequently large amounts
due from these corporations remain un-
paid. The bill imposing a license up
on sample traders being imperative,

A Common Mistake,

1t strikes the most of persons, when
they first sit down to Sewing Machine,
that it is SO complicated they will never
be able to learn its operation. This is
true of many machines, but a single
days use of the "New Howe Machine"
with the instruction that is easily OBJ
tained, will enable any lady to make
good beginning, and few days prac-
tlce will make it a pleasant employ
ment. OF course in this, as in any
other work, practice is needful to reach
perfection. Sewing with the needle
IN the fingers is not learned in a day,
and years are required to become an
expert. But few weeks use of the
New Howe Sewing Machine will ena-
BILE any lady to do all her plain sewing,
and to do it well, and soon her fine sew.
ing with far more success than with
her needle, and leave her plenty of
time for everything else she may have
on hand. Call and see these world,

trial of the Agent,

THE BIBLE.-Blessed be God that
there is at least one thing thoroughly

whose voice We hear not. What
blank would there be here if only this
one fragment of the divine, now ven-
erable both with wisdom and age, were
to disappear from the midst of us; or,
what is the same thing, the discovery
were to be made that this ancient vol
ume is not the unearthly thing which
men have deemed, but, at the highest
estimate, a mere fragment from the
great block of human thought-per.

THE NECKLACE OF PEARLS.
RY r. II. STODDARD.

RY r. II. STODDARD.
He met her in the garden,
A bright and beauteous maid,
Who, grown at once woman,
Was not of love afraid,
She loved, and could not help it,
Her heart went out to his;
And as he stopped to kiss her,
She rose to meet his kiss.
He kissed her in the garden,
And-was it what he said,
Or the shadows of the roses
That made her cheeks so red?
Her bosom rising, falling,
With new and strange delight
The string Of pearls upon it
Was not so white, so white.
He drew her down the garden,
He would not hear her "No,"
She must go if she loved him
Who loved her, loved her so,
They must 60 pluck the roses
And listen to the dove:
The dove was wooing, wooing,
As he was her-for love.
He led her down the garden,
And while her arms were round
The neck she, parting, clung to,
She saw upon the ground
The string that held her necklace,
With not q pearl thereon:
The slender string was broken,
And all the pearls were gone.
Then up and down the garden
She wondered with dismay,
And wondered where her pearls were,
And how they slipt away:
They nestled in her bosom
One little hour ago,
Before they plucked the roses;
And her tears began to flow.
So round and round the garden
She went with peering eyes;
Oh, is not that the necklace
That shining yonder lies2
'Tis but string of dew-drops
The wind has broken there,
Or the tears that she is shedding
That make her look more fair.
Still round and round the garden
She hunted high and low
In the red hearts of the roses,
The lilly's breast of snow;
The thorns they pricked her fingers:
Her fingers bled and bled,
But her heart was bleeding faster:
oh, why was she not dead2
For she must leave the garden
And meet her mothers eyes,
Who will perceive the sorrows,
And ask the reason why;
And she must meet her father,
Who, as she hangs her head,
Will miss the priceless necklace,
And rise and strike her dead.
