The Power Of Giant PoMder.

The explosive force Of giant powder
is shown in this statement: A mortar,
standing at an angle of forty-five de-
grees, with quarter Of an ounce of No.
/ giant powder, viii throw q shot weigh
ing thirty-fo pounds the distance OF
625 feet. The same charge Of No. q
giant will throw the same shot q dis
tance of ATS feet. In an upright mortar
one ounce of giant powder, No. I,
throws shot weighing forty two pounds
out of sight and enc ounce of No. 2
giant will throw the same shot LOCO
feet. The same amount of black bIsst-
ing powder will not throw the shot out
of the mortar. We conclude that the
giant has great energy, and is industri-
ous on the occasion Of an explosion.

The Three Callers.

Morn called fondly to fair boy strsying
Mid golden meodows rich with clover dew;
She calls-but he still thinks Of naught save
playing;
And 30 she smiles, and waves him adieu!
While he, still merry with his flowery store,
Dreams not that morn, sweet morn ! returns
Noon cometh-but the boy to manhood grow
ing.
Heeds not the time-he sees but one sweet
form,
One young fair face, from bower Of jasmine
glowing.
And all his loving heart with bliss is warm;
So noon, unnoticed, seeks the western shore,
And man forgets that noon returns no
Night tappeth gently at easement gleam-
ing
With the thin freight, Pickering and low,
By which gray haired man is sadly dream
ing
Ger pleasures gone-as all life's pleasures
Night call him to her-as he leaves his door,
Silent and dark and lie returns no more.

What Is Worn.

Louisine faconne is a basket-woven
silk material, with brocaded flowers of
the same, or of two colors.
Lace scarfs, black, white, and cream
color, are beginning TO be worn around
the neck in the place of furs.
The crowns Of some hats and bonnets
are made of silk and lace. This is very
pretty and effective.
The dress parsoi is made of black silk,
lined with white silk and edged with q
heavy fall of black lace.
The latest collars for gentlemen are
rather high, with the corners of the ends
slightly turned back, or square.
The high round felt hat has taken the
place of the half high gentleman's hat,
formerly used for ladies' riding hats.
Ostrich tips will take the place of
birds and wings for spring dress
bonnets. NJ more slaughter of the
innocents.
Costumes are very elaborate, but not
OF such costly character as heretofore,
probably owing to the economical times.
1fssu de naGtelasse is the newest
! woolen fabric for spring dresses; it is a
damask material, reversible and richly
fowered.
Some chemises and underwaists are
made in one; that is, they have one
band, the underwaist buttoning under
the arms.
The overgarmc mt misnamed the Ulster
is really the ancient Burnous, the COM
mon overcoat worn by positions all
over Europe.
Handsome suits are made by using
light brocaded cloth goods for polo
naises, with skirts and sleeves of cor
responding color of silk.
Among the spring overcoats for boys
from four to seven, are some made of a
light gray cloth, with collar, cuffs, and
lapels of dark gray.
The sleeve to be worn with the Cen
tennial waistcoat and jacket is coat
sleeve with the outside seam left open
about two inches, finished by two
buttons.
Gentlemen's hats are rather high in
the crown, and slightly bell form; wide
bands, narrow plain binding, but heavy
fine worsted reps for Innings under the
brims.
The most fashiol able promenade coat
for gentlemen is of fine diagonal cloth,
dark color, olive, mulberry, or black;
cuffs rather deep, one button On and one
above.
Belts of lace, loosely fastened around
the waists of tight-ftting cuirasses, and
terminating in long sashlike ends, are to
be worn with lace parures in the spring.
A new pattern for night dresses for
ladies has three largo plaits back and
front running to the waist line. The
standing collar and ruffe are trimmed
with narrow ruffie.
Play and school suits for boys are
made of gray and blue flannel. having
knee breeches, and blouses reaching a
little below the waist, fastened in at the
waist by belt.
Blouse waists for boys are made of
plaid percales. The new pattern ex-
tends a quarter of q yard below the
band on which the buttons are, and
which gathers it in at the waist.
The tribune. [volume] (Beaufort, S.C.) 1874-1876, 1876-04-19
She still clung to him with

Miss Jane. She still clung to him with
devotion.
One night there was noise, late,
which reused some of the neighbors, as
carriage drove up to Mrs. Arton's
door: Two days after, early, there was
quiet funeral there.
Mrs. Arton was widow.
She lived on yet many years, but
much changed. Now she was conspicu-
GUS for doing good and relieving the
necessities of those around her. She
could be seen almost daily, her hair per.
fectly white, dressed in gray, and going,
with basket on her arm, to the poorer
portions of the town.
Elizabeth still lived with her, but
grown into pretty young woman, still
with an inordinate love of dress. She
regarded men with great aversion, and
was model of fidelity and devotion to
her mistress, whom she regarded at any
moment as likely to be carried off like
Elijah or Enoch, and only wondered, as,
of course, she must do at something,
that the aerial journey should be de-
layed. Her eyes had never lost their
look of amazement, but she had lost all
her taste for sitting at the kitchen win
dow, except about the time when Miss
Jane, rs she always called her mistress,
was wont to return. She met her at the
door then, with smile. "You must
be tired, MISS" she would say. No."
Miss Jane would answer; "not tired,
Elizabeth-one cannot be tired when
one is occupied doing good, and forget
full of oneself. 1t is the fruitless dwelling
on tho past that wearies, or the pursuit
of something which God does not in
tend us to have"

that the anchor had been down all the
time.

that bill reads $11 for sugar, coffee end
tea, he'll give me the money without
word. If it reads for balance on dry
goods, he'll see you in Texas before he
pays it. Make il out for groceries, It
is my duty as a good wife to pander to
his feelings.
