November two years later. November,
sere and brown, with cold sunshine on the
window-panes of the old homestead.
Dolores and Margaret clung together in
mutual sorrow and suspense. Over and
over again Margaret heard the romance
of Dolores life, painted in tropical warmth
of coloring, for she was woOed i'm Mexico.
Over and over again had Dolores heard
of the river bank where the furnace stood.
The intense fever of the Spanish beneath
a calm exterior blended with the graver
Saxon nature of Margaret; they loved
each other, and waited for two men, now
absent for years. Sturdy Tom and little
Dolores of the glancing feet had taken
possession of everything; they searched
for flowers and birds eggs just as il gray
thread had not come among the raven
masses of their mothers hair and lines
about Margarets melancholy lips.
Cousin Jack Erskine was drawing his
net very closely indeed if he could gain
entire control of Margarets property he
would force her tom marry him. Cousin Jack
hated these usurpers. The Spanish woman
studied him with her soft impenetrable
black eyes, while her manner was win
ningly courteous
"That cousin is cheating you out OF
everything" she said.
Result: Bills for improvements on the
farm came i'm which Margaret could not
pay. Jack clustered, and paid the sums
with an injured air. The subject of money,
even in families, is tho true touchstone
of character.
"Do your worst" said Margaret at
last, when thoroughly aroused to indgna.

your place, you know, as part of my pos

gether.
In the morning cousin Jack took Tom
to drive in his new dog cart. Dolores was
suspicious of this condescension, but Tom
came home buoyant with delight, and
not aware in the least that Mr.. Erskine
had learned that Margaret kept all her
valuables in Chinese cabinet in her
chamber. If the old bill on his place
could be destroyed, the game was In his
own hands. Later in the day Margaret
went to the village postofIice.
A peddler came TO the door, and was
sent away by Aunt Polly. Shrill, child
ish screams ensued; Mrs. Garfield rushed
10 the window to see the peddler bearing
away little Dolores in his arms, while
Tom shouted Justify for help. A panther

young than was the Spanish mother al

Sound immigration Views.

The following views, expressed by the
Aberdeen Examiner, are the only ones,
earnestly carried out, that will ever make
orr waste places smile again. Mississippi
needs people TO purchase and cultivate
her soil. She does Bot need hired labor.
Hired labor is not the kind that builds
up great and prosperous States. The
Examiner says:
Mississippi is not seeking laborers in
the employe sense of the word, for she
has at the present time q better labor ng
population than any state outside Of the
South can boast-what she wants to-day
is such an addition to her intelligent az
rciultural population as will enable her to
put all her failow lands under cultivation +;
she wants small farmers as purchasers, or
as tenants until they can accumulate the
w~hsrewithal to purchase, and we know Of
no better field in which to seek them
than the States of Kentucky, Tennessee,
North Carolina. Virginia. Georgia and
Maryland aft ord; we will not add South
Carolina though she has furnished to our
" county many OF its noblest citizens,
for Heaven forbid that we should ever be
even remotely responsible for taking a
single white man from the heroic hand.

carse OF civilization against banded
scoundrefism, ignorance and insolence.

! Compliment to Missis-
sippians.

Referring 10 the political condition OF
Mississippi and the efforts her sons are
making to rescue her from the craps OF
the robbers, the New Orleans Bulletin
pays them the following eloquent compli-
ment:
Mississippians are by nature Q noble
and chvalric people. More fortunate 10
one respect than Louisiana, Mississippi
possesses q homogeneous white popula-
ton, and, as Q necessary consequence, 0
healthy public opinion. Patient in ad-
versity, courageous under the severest
trials and Affections. they have won for
themselves unfading lau-els, both in war
and in peace. On the plains OF Chal-
mette, upon the enssnguined fields of
Mexico, and in every engagement of the
late unfortunate struggle her heroic sons
fearlessly barred their breasts to the bat
ties storm, and wrote there names in let
ters of blood IN history's brightest page.
Since ''grim-visaged war has smoothed
his wrinkled 'front.'" they have beat their
swords into pillow shares accommodate d
themselves TO the new order Of things,
and entered with common dable zeal into
the greatest Of battles, the struggle against
adverse fortune. They have risen supe-
rior to every difficulty that surrounded
them in their social and material relations,
and it only remains for them to display
the same wisdom and foresight in their
political affairs, as they have in all other
walks OF life, in order to raise their State
ont Of the slough OF despond to which
Radicaliam has reduaed her.
