Blanche and Nell.

O, Blanche is city lady,
 Bedecked in her silks and lace; She walks with the mien off stately queen
 And queens imperiOus grace. But Nell is country maiden,
 Her dress from the farmstead loom; Her step is free as breeze at sea,
 And her face is rose in bloom. The house of Blanche is marvel
 Of marble from base to dome; It hath all things fair. and costly and rare
 But alas it is not HOME Nell lives in a lonely cottage,
 On the shores of wave-washed isle; And the life she leads, with it's living deeds
 The angels behold and smile. Blanche finds her palace prison,
 And oft, through the dreary years, In her burdened breast there is sad unrest,
 And her eyes are dimmed with tears But to Nell her tolls are pastime,
 (Though never till night they cease,) And her souls af1oat like buoyant boat On the crystal tides of peace. An !! Blanche hath many lover,
 But she brOOdeth OCT old regret; And the shy, sweet red on her cheek is dead, For the day-star of hope has set. Fair Nell but single lover
 Hath she in the wide, wide world; Yet warmly apart in her glowing heart Love bides, with his pinions furled. To Blanche all life seems shadowed,
 And she but ghost therein; Tbro' the misty gray of her autumn day Steal voices of grief and sin. To Nell all life is sunshine,
 All earth like fairy sod, Where the roses grow and the violets blow, In the sOftest breath of God.

A Mean Advantage.

There were a score or more Oi women gathered together at MT. Johnson's house. Mir. Johnson is a good hearted man and a re- spectable citizen, though he is ra- ther sceptical about some things. The women had just organized "The Foreign BenOvent Society,"" when MT. Johnson entered the room. He was at once appealed to donate few dollars as a foun- datiOn to work on, and Mrs. Gra- ham added, "It would be so plea sant in after years for you to re- member that you gave this socie. ty its first dollar and its first kind Word."
 He slowly drew out ten dollar piece as the ladies smacked their lips and clapped their hands, he asked;
 "Is this society organized to aid the poor of the foreign country 7" "Yes-yes-yesw they chours- ed.
 And It wants money"
 "Yes-yes !"
 Well, now" said Johnson "there are twenty married WO- man here. If there are fifteen of you who can make oath that you have combed your children's hair this morning, washed the dishes, blacked the cOOk-stOve, and made the beds, I'll donate, this SI0."
 II have," answered two of the crowd and the rest said:
 "Why, now, Mir. Johnson !"
 elf fifteen of you can make oath that your husbands are not wear ing socks with holes in the heels, this money is yours," continued the wretch.
 "Just hear him 70 they exclaim- : ed each one looking at the other. "Iften of you have boys without holes in the knees of their pants, this money goes to the society !" said Johnson.
 "Such a man !' they whisper. ed.
 "If there aIe five pairs of stock ings in this room that don't need alarming I'll hand over the mon- ey r' he went on.
 "Mr. Johnson" said Mrs. Gra- ham, with great dignity, "the rules of this society declare that no money shall be contributed ex. cept by members; and as you're not a member beg that you will withdraw and let us proceed with the routine business"

Texas Cattle Trade.

The Texas cattle trade is undergoing
somewhat of change, and is evident
Iy passing into the hands of large oper-
ators. One of our Texas exchanges, in
discussing the subject, says" Th e
day of the old-fashiOned cattle bust
ness in Western Texas has passed away,
at least for time, if not forever. The
millions of cattle we formerly had
have mostly been driven North, and the
cattle still remaining are all passing in
to the hands of a few men with i'm
mense ranches and immence herds.
We see it stated that Capt. Dick King,
of Santa Gertrudes, the great cattle king
of the West, is now making an immense
cattle drive. He has now en- route for
Kansas, $4,000 cattle There are now
twelve different droves each of 300 to
$500 cattle Seventeen men guard
each herd, intending the cook and head
man. They get $25 per month, cook,
$50, and head man 800. Eight hun
bred horses are used. Besides the cost
Of the stock, for the months of travel,
the expenditure for labor and feed
alone will amount to $4,000 1t costs
this sum to get them to Kansas; and
they remain unsold for eight or nine
months. Capt. King furnishes nothing
but horses and food. Capt. Thomas
Reynon has had the entire charge of
gathering, preparing and putting upon
the road these great herds of cattle,
representing, at S25 a head, 100000
The labor has been immense, and sue
cess requires ability and energy of the
! first order"

Monster Armor-Plate

A London paper of March Is has the
following. "The largest armor-plate
ever made was produced yesterday at
the Cyclops Works (Messrs, Cammell &
Co.'S, Sheffield). The thickness made
previously was IA inches, but the plate
made yesterday is % inches thick. 1t
is one of several intended for two war
vessels now constructing for the Italian
government. The plate, which weighs
50 tons, will be tested by a 100-ton gun.
Each vessel will have two turrets. and
