mr.. KENDALu'S OFFICE,
And One OF Its Consequences.

Edward Kendall was a bachelor al
most forty years of age. He was never
4 handsome man; and now his once jet
ty locks of hair were beginning to be
touched with silver, and around the
grave, stern mouth were lines that might
have been traced by care or sorrow.
Yet he was noble-looking, tall and fine
.ly formed, with features indicative of
great force of character and eyes so keen
that they seemed almost to read ones
thoughts at the first glance.
He was q farmer in good circum-
stances, living in plain, unpretending
style, with an old lady aged enough to
be his mother, his sole companion and
housekeeper. He was not a favorite
with his neighbprs on account Of his re-
ticence and reserve, for there is no class
of people more social and fond of neigh
borly freedom than the farmers of New
England. But they respected him, new
-ertheless, for his high moral principles
and sound common sense, and as man
of property he received Difference where
he would not otherwise.
Mr.. Kendall was often appointed to
Office, both of Town and State, and no
one discharged such duties more faith
fully than he. At the time of which we
write he was occupying position Pc
culiarly distasteful to him, that of ex-
amining committee and acting school
visitor for the Town. My readers will
understand why this was so embarrass-
iEg position when I tell them that in
truth Mr.. Kendall's reticence sprung al
most wholly from bashfulness, and when
it is taken into account that the majority
= of the candidates for examination were
ladies young, old and middle-aged-
perhaps they will gladly -sympathize
with instead of blaming him.
In his younger days Mr.. Kendall had
thought Of marriage, as something that
might come to him in the future, but he
was so painfully bashful that he had
never summoned courage to take the
necessary steps toward such consum-
nation, and the older he grew the more
distant seemed the prospect of matri-
mony. The unmarried ladies of that
vicinity had long ago given him up as
one upon whom all their arts and fasci-
nations would be lost; and the dream

Sam and Joe.
BY SALLIE A. BROCK,

My heart is strangely sad tonight;
The past hangs o'er me like dream;
And as bark with fresh trimmed sails,
MY thoughts are gliding down the stream
An, those were jocund days, my friend,
The old, old days Of long ago,
Though sometimes shadowed by a cloud,
When you were ssSam,'' and I wa
''JOe.''
see our homesteads side by side
CLEAN white amid the leafy shade;
hear the brawling of the brook,
smell the perfumes through the glade;
feel the dear ones all around
And some have crossed deaths stream
you know,
But sorrow lightly touched our hearts,
For you were ''Sam, and was s'Joe. .
Our tutors form appears again
His clear, calm eyes, his frosty hair;
His cheeks all seemed like withered fruit;
His lips on which a smile was rare.
Those truthful lips-but time, to him,
Was cruel in its ebb and flow;
Yet little rocked we of his griefs,
For you were Sam, {" and was ssJoe. -
OF discipline we i'll approved,
And i'll approved of Latin verse;
With classic Greek held bad commune,
OF Hebrew text our hate was worse;
And physics laws we held in scorn;
And mathematics, too, was slow;
And he would sigh, and we would laugh
But you were s'Sam, - and was ssJoe. -
And then our college years come up,
So filled with sporeive pranks and wiles
The nights 80 often glad with mirth,
The days all dimpled O'er with smiles;
More !uckless wights than were we two,
The college records did not know;
But glad we put dull care to flight,
And you were ''Sam, and 1 was s'Joe. :"
Our carly loves?-You mind them well?-
3The months which fitted by like hours?
The walks, the talks?-the rides, the
drives:-
The bows that bound the bunch. of flow
ers?
The ringing of that old church bell
One morn, which made earth heaven be-
low?
For we had each treasure found,
Though you be ''Sam, - and 1 was ''Joe."
And We were men! And manhood's cares
Have thickly crowded on our path;
Our children cluster round the boards,
And we have felt afflicti0n's scath;
Yet would we not with manhOod's joys
Return to days of long ago,
Though bright the beaker to our lips,
When vOli were ssSam =, and I wss
''JOe.''
For manhood's joys are richer far
Than backward glance to boyhood sees;
Than youth, with al our youthful hopes;
We now drink wine upon the lees.
Yet We to each must always be
The same as then, come veal or woe,
Though you are Fame's, the laurel mine,
You still are ''Sam," and am "Joe."

THE DEMOCRAT is thoroughly in- dependent in it's course. under no pledge or covenant to support the schemes or fortunes of any man or set of men, always having at heart first, the good of the people of Pope county, and of the state of Arkan sas. It claims no right to lead or direct in politics, or any other sphere; but it does claim the right, and will fearlessly and at all times assert it, to speak it's own opinions, on all matters coming ,within the scope of it's duty as an independent journal. Whatever prominence it maintains in the affairs of this county or State, will be voluntarily accorded by the people who support it. In short the DEMOCRAT wishes to be judged solely upon its own merits as local and state newspa- per, having for it's chief object the dissemination of the news of the day with such comments upon current topics as seem appropriate and are conscientiously entertained by it's management. It will heartily sup port all movements, political or otherwise, which promise to fur thur, and unhesitatingly oppose those which would jeopardize, the interests of the people. In every department it will be as enterpris- ing as it's patronage will justify. Sensible men will approve the busi- ness management that limits expen- diture to the bounds of income; on- lv fools or enemies expect a degree of excellence in all points that can alone be attained by the possession of resources and income.
