In turns out, as previously y fore
shadowed in our dispatches, that the
failure of the attempts at compro-
mise between the contending factions
in Louisiana was due mainly to Dem
ocratic politicians at the north, who
appealed to their southern brethren
to keep their wounds open for the
sake of the party. Now that the
truth is before the people, the pitiful
shifts and evasions of these jolly beg
gars in Louisiana will be condemned
and punished, we hope, as they de-
serve. The organized fraud known
as the Kellogg Government is almost
tolerable when placed in comparison
with the political-institution which
the Democratic party has established
and is maintaining in New Orleans.

Men and women, and especially
young people, do not know that it
takes years to marry completely
two hearts, even Of the most loving
and well-sorted. But nature allows
no sudden change. We slope very
gradually from the cradle to the sum-
NIT Of life. Marriage is gradual, a
fraction of us at a time. A happy
wedding is long falling in love. I
know young persons think love only
belongs to brown hair, and plump,
round crimson cheeks. So it does for
its beginning, just as Mount Wash
ington begins at Boston Bay. But
the golden marriage is a part of love
which the bridal day knows nothing
of. Youth is the tassel and silken
flower of life; age i, the full corn,
ripe and solid in the ear. Beautiful is
the morning Of love with its pathetic
crimson, violet, purple and gold, with
It's hopes of days that are to come.
Beautiful also is the evening of love,
with its glad remembrances. and its
rainbow side turned toward heaven as
we'll as earth. Young people marry
their opposites in temper and general
character, and such a marriage is COM
monty good match.
They do it instinctively. The
young man does not say: "My black
eyes require to be wed with blue, and
my over-vehemence requires to be
little modified with somewhat of
dullness and reserve" When these
opportunities come together to be wed
they do not know it, but each thinks
the other just like himself.
Old people never marry opposites
they marry their similars and from a
calculation. Each of these two ar
rangements is very proper. In their
long journey these young opposites
will fall out, by the way,a great many
times and both get away from the
road; but each will charm the other
back again, and by-and-by they will
be agreed as to the place they will 60
to and the road they will 60 by, and
become reconciled. The man will be
nobler and larger for being associa-
ted with SO much humanity unlike
himself and she will be nobler wo-
man for having manhood beside her
that seeks to correct her Deficiencies
and supply her with what she lacks
if the diversity be not too great, and
there be real piety and love in their
hearts to begin with. The old BRIDE
groom, having a much shorter jour-
ney to make, must associate himself
with one like himself.
A perfect and complete marriage is,
perhaps, as rare as perfect personal
beauty. Men and women are mar
ried fractionally now a small fract-
ion then a large fraction. Very few
are married totally, and they only, I
think, after some forty or fifty years
Of gradual approach and experiment.
Such large and sweet fruit is COM
plete marriage" and needs a very
long summer to ripen in, and then a
long winter to mellow and season in.
But real happy marriage Of love
and judgment, between a noble man
and woman, is one of the things so
very handsome, and if the sun we're
as the Greek poets fabled, a god, he
might stop the world in order to feast
his eyes with such spectacle.-The-
odore Parker.

"A cynical individual, on reading
a pathetic story in one of the papers
lately, noted in his memorandum
book as follows:
Somebody whistled. Teacher calls
up big boy on suspicion. Big boy
comes up and holds out his hand, sui
len and savage. Noble little boy
comes manfu1ly forward and says
*'1'm the boy that whistled, SIR" at
the same time holding out his hand.
Teacher SINNERS down, and lets them
both off: (Mem.-Noble little boy
thought teacher wouldn't lick him if
he told the truth, and knew the big
boy would if he didn't.)

The mule is becoming popular,
Of late; and with good reason, for it
costs less to breed and raise mule
colt to a suitable size for sale than a
horse less time is required to pre-
pare them for market, and the young
mule may be sold at any time more
readily at better paying prices; less
liable to accidents, and more money
can be made out of them, and yet
mankind are reluctant to engage in
their breeding.

SATURDAY EVENING.

Rest-rest in peace-Lhy toll is done;
And, standing as thou standest, on the brink
or q new scone OF being, calmly think
OF whal ID gone, is now! and soon shall be,
AS one that trembles in eternity.
For such rs this now closing week Is past,
So much advancing time will close my last,

or the eternal morning hail my sight
Spirit Of good! on this weeks verge stand,
Tracing Ihe guiding influence Of thy hand;
That hand which LEADS me gently, calmly still,
Up life's dark, stormy, tires0me, thorny hill,
Thou, thou, in every storm hast sheltered me
Beneath the wing Of thy benignity.
A thousand graves thy footsteps circumvent, ,
And exIst-thy lnercy's monument;
A thousand writhe upon the bed of pain,

Want DER q thousand wretches waves her
wand,
I, cireled by ten thousand mercies, stand. ..
How can praise thee, Father how express
My debt OF reverence and Of thanKfulnessp
A ucbt that no intelligence can count,
While every moment swells the vast amount.
For weeks duties thou hast given me

And brought me to its peaceful close at length,
And here my grateful bosom faln would raise
A fresh memorial to thy glorious praise.

What Mrs. Beecher Thinks Of TIlton.

A Brooklyn correspondent, who has
been interviewing Mrs. Beecher, says:
Mrs. Beecher has grown quite thin
since the trial commenced. She says
she is so nervous that she can't sleep
nights. When l told her that her face
looked full and round, she held up her
hands and said:
"Look al these! never saw the bones
in these hands before. am really afraid
l shall get sick before this trial ends.
Henry seems very happy. In fact he is
always in hot water, and don't think he
would feel natural if he was not in some
trlbulation. Somebody is always making
fool of him. Why after he gets out Of
this trouble don't believe it will be
three months before he will be in another
scrape; and all because he is SO inno-
cent and generous. Why, if l had been
one-halt as honest as Henry has been,
we would both of us have been ruined a
dozen times before this"
"Did you lose faith in Theodore before
Mr.. Beecher didW asked.
"Why, yes-years ago. Fifteen years
ago l told Theodore to his face that he
was wolf in sleeps clothing. He came
here and took his meals for two weeks.
I found him out then. He used to sit and
copy Mr.. Beecher's handwriting. One day
he showed me a page in exact imitation of
Mr.. Beecher. When he held it up to me
and asked me II i knew whose writing it
was, l said, yes, sir, it is a miserable
attempt to copy my husband.'"
"What did Theodore say to thisw
"He went up stairs to Mr.. Beecher,
who came down and said l mustn't talk
SO to Theodore, for, said he. She really
in him,p said l. q should think so.
There must be great deal of good in
him, Henry, for none has ever come out
of him.
II really believe, that if I should say
anything about Theodore three months
after the trial that Mr.. Beecher would
say, 'Now don't be SO hard on poor Theo-
dore; he's really good man at heart"
"One night" continued Mrs. Beecher,
"after Theodore had taken his meals
with US for two weeks fifteen years ago },
Mrs. Tilton called and asked If had
seen DoryS seen Dory?' said 1; who's
Doryp,
"'Why, my Theodore said Mrs. Til
ton.
"sYes, Pve seen your Dory, if that's
him. said /; pve seen him for two
weeks, and that's two weeks too long.
I'd be glad to have you take your Dory
home and keep him, and never let him
come within sight of our house again.
"What do you think" said Mrs.
Beecher, as her eyes snapped fire, "why
that miserable man, that sneaking Dory,
had not been home for five weeks, but
had spent toe whole time loafing around
Mr.. Beecher, and sponging his meals OF
of our table. And Henry all the time

OIE HUNDRED YEARS AGO TO-

Tomorrow, the 18th inst, one hundred
years ago, the first event of the Revolu-
tiou transpired at Boston. Matters had
hong been tending to armed resistance
20 tho regularly constituted authorities.
On the night Of Tuesday, the 18th OF
April. 1776, General Gage sent a body OF
troops, under the command OF Lieutenant
Colonel Smith, 10 Concord. This first
portentous march Of English soldiers
was to the place where the Second Pro-
vincial Congress had just held session
The force comprised $40 men. The os.
steusihle object was the destruction Of
stores that had been accumulated al
Concord.
On the 10th Col. Smith was REINFORCED
by more than thousand men under
Lord Percy, with two pieces Of cannon.
The first action Of the great struggle
which assured independence to the Col.
oaies occurred on the 10Th, one hundred
years ego on Monday. The result was
the rapid and disorderly retreat of the
British to Boston, with the loss Of 27a

Ian oiAh was tue ArsL 10 suggest TO

sociation that they ought to teach those

urged that something be done In this re-

ing wider field of usefulness than
that Of the sewing school. From COM
munication in our local column it
will be seen that it is proposed to estab-
hsh laundry in this city, where young
girls can be gratuitously taught to be-
come competent laundresses. To raise
funds necessary to open such an estab-
Hshment, musical and dramatic enter
tainment will be given early in May. AS
the ladies who have this in charge never
sffer the public anything that has not in
trinsic merit, an entertainment superior

please may be anticipated. Although
we admit the usefulness Of the
sewing school, yet we are sure that alone,
the good it accomplishes is very small
compared with what it would be COM
bined with instruction in other branches
OF household duties. 1t is in the power
Of the members of Y. L. B. to teach those
under their care how to become compe-
tent housekeepers in every department.
To learn to sew Is but very small part
Of what woman needs to know in order
that her services may be valuable to en-
ployers or in home of her own. Be-
sides, as continuous employment it is
the most unhealthy that can be under
taken. To learn to cook wholesome and
palatable food, to set room properly in
order, to clean house, to wash and iron,
al these are quite as essential as sew.

course, become selfsupporting, and
probably make money. Then, as soon as
practicable, we shall hope to see cook
