A Word About Marriage.

A physician writes the following
sensible advice: "My profession has
thrown me among women of all classes
and my experience teaches me that
God never gave a man greater proof
of his love than to place woman here
with him. My advice is: Go pro
pose to the most sensible girl you
know. If she says Yes tell her how
much your income is, from whatsOurce
derived, and tell her you will divide
the last shilling with her, and love her
with all your heart in the bargain
and then keep your promise. My
word for it that she will live within your
income, and to your last hour you will
regret that you did not marry sooner.
Gentlemen don't IVORY about feminine
untruth. just be true to her, love her
truly, and throw it up to her frequent
ly, and a more fond, faithful, foolish
slave you will never meet anywhere.
You won't deserve her, / know, but
she will never see it. Now throw aside
pride and selfishness, and see what
will come of it.

State administration adhered to Re
publican principles, and stood by the
platform upon which it was elected,
The State to-day would have been on
the highway of prosperity. If the State
advanced only patriotic measures, ap-
pointed only honest men to Office, and
sought to restore confidence between
the races, bloodshed would have been
unknown, peace would have prevailed,
Federal interference been unthOught
of, and harmony, friendship and mu-
tual confidence would have taken the
place of the bayonet. In conclusion,
let me say to you, and through you to
the great Republican party of the
North, that deem it my duty, in be-
half of my people, that present these
facts, in order that they and the
white people (their former owners
should not suffer Misrepresentation
which certain demaOOgues seem de-
sirous of encouraging.
Respectfully,
H. w. REVELS.

"Papa Don't Bury Me Deep.

In the Spring of 1870 little girl
died of consumption in Frederick City,
aged eight years and three months.
A few days before she died she called
her father to her bedside and said,
"Papa when / die, don't bury me deep
NOT more than so Deep" holding up
her slender and emaciated arm and
measuring from her shoulder out. 80 !
it is hard to be put down so deep in
the damp ground; and please don't
place any marble slab on my grave ;
it will press SO hard my little breast.
Sod my grave nicely and plant a tree
at its head SO that the wild birds can
gather in its branches and sing for me"
And after pause she continued:
"But it seems to me / would rather
have our birds to sing for me than
wild birds. Couldn't you let brother
Willie and sister Emma bring our cage
of little birds out to the cemetry ev.
cry Sunday morning and leave them
to sing for me all day? Then when
you are all at church in town it wont
seem so lonesome there by myself.
A few days after this Anna died, and
her afectionate parents did everything
as she requested. She was buried
shallow, the grave nicely sodded, anG
q tree planted at its head. And ev
cry Sabbath morning Willie and En-
ma can be seen going out to the GENE
terry, with their cage Of little birds, t.

Fred Douglass Son Wants to d.
vide the COlored Vote.

A son of that aristorcratic colored
Republican, Frederick Douglass, says
the cOlOred people must not allow
themselves to be used as cats paws
hereafter. They should unite, speak
and act for themselves. Their party
leaders have no love for them-but
only want their votes. He thinks the
negroes should nominate officers and
vote for them, and obtain a pledge
from the white Republicans to vote
for them also, whenever the negroes
compose a fair proportion of the Re-
publican population. Mr.. Douglass
thinks the negroes have been duped
and fooled long enough by the party
in power, and wishes to know if they
are prepared to tamely submit to the
dictation of their white Republican
leaders.-Cincimati Enquirer.

Falling I'm Love.

There is nothing-no moral or in
tellectual phenomena-more. strange
than falling in love. What it is; or,
whence it originates; how it is brought
about; these things are among the hid
den mysteries Of our nature.
The girl has reached the age of
eighteen; young man that of twenty.
one. They have lived at home; trav-
eled some; pursued their studies; at
tending parties, and been a good deal
in the society Of other young people /!
Yet they never took a great interest
in anything in particular; neither of
them had ever cared very much for
any other person. They meet, and
lol of a sudden, all is change,n Each
sees the other in different light from
what any other was ever seen in; the
whole world seems changed. Life it.
self is changed; the whole being is
changed, to be what it was again, new
err more! Love is often as sudden as
this, but not always. Sometimes it is
of very slow growth. Persons have
known each other for years, and have
been much in each others society,
and been intimate all this time, but
never thinking of tie stronger than
friendship; when some incident or
event-a temporary parting, or the in
PREVENTION between them Of third per-
son, friend or stranger-reveals to them
for the first time that they are mutu-
ally in lovel Yet this love, springing
up gradually and imperceptibly, is no
less mysterious and unfathomable than
that which is sudden and at first sight.
1t is mere friendship grown strong; ii
is a more absorbing, more violent.
more uncomfortable sentiment.
Whether a person can fall in love
more than once has always been a
mOoted question, Some people ap-
pear to fall in love many times, 1t is
not unusual to see widowers, who
have been very devoted husbands,
marry again, and seem to love the
second wife just as well as the first.
1t is contended, however, that in such
a case there is no real, true love in
either instance, and that human life
does not admit of but one all-engrOss
ing passion.
This point we will not undertake t.
determine. A single love possesses
world of wonder and Of mystery to
comprehend; if there can be more than
one, that does not help US to an ex
PLANTATION.

BlOOdthirsty Preachers.

PEKN, ILL.,, Sept. 26.-Quite an
excitement exists here to-day, growing
out of stopping over of some MethO-
dist clergymen at the residence of H.
P. Westeman last night. The Gen.
trail Illinois Conference of the Meth
Odist Episcopal Church is in session
here, and some twenty of the minis
tiers are the guests of Westeman, the
chief of the whiskey ring. The Hayes
and Wheeler club, in full regalia, with
torches and music, marched to the res
idenee of II. p. Westeman last night,
for the purpose of giving the minis
tiers serenade. In response, some of
them made the most bitter and incen-
diary speeches, urging the boys in uni
form to persevere in their drill and ex-
ercise that they had a great work to
accomplish which ought to be perform
ed peacefully, but if peaceful work
fails they would make good soldiers.
The editors of the Times happened to
be present, came out in a supplement
this morning, in which the offensive
preachers, with Mr.. Westeman and
the whiskey ring, were handled with
out gloves. The consequence is, that
the Radical party, some OF the preach.
ers, and the whiskey ring, are in ter
rible stew, and may probably make ap.
plications to Father Taft for military
aid to suppress the Times and its back
ers. 1t is said the ring is preparing q
reply; If so, the end is not yet.

FOUR LETTERS.
BY NELLIE.

Pressed within their folds
Like leaves Of faded flowers,
These bygone words repose-
Dead types of happier hours,
Though lost-the glowing iervor,
That's breathed in every line,
Sweet memories still cluster;
About the shattered shrine.
remember yet the sweetness
Ofthe flowers bright and fair,
That gemmed the eartL's completeness
With the beauty angels wear,
How loiter,d in the sunshine,
That sparkled on the dew
To con again the precious lines,
received one day from you.
How the words were inspiration,
That cheered:my round of toll,
And the earnest invocation
That my soul be kept from soil,
fingered on my lips at twilight
Like the dew that kissed, the flower
To sleep beneath the starlight.
With sweet thoughts Of happy hours
How ! walked IN sweet confusion
From the vision of the night,
To recall the dear eflusiou-
In the struggling dawn Of light,
That like half forgotten numbers
Of music tones suppressed;
Had brooded DER my slumbers-
With its sweetest words oppressed.
Aud when the summer ended,
And brightness all had fled,
Aud again my footsteps wendell,
The paths where duty led
How stamped with loving impress,
And sealed with friendships glow,
Like breathing Of sweet incense,
Came these words of-long ago
How amid the desolation-
OF ties that's since been riven,
Those words of consolation,
Were q solace-sent from Heaven;
Were all-of shattered br ightness-
That was strewn around me yet,
That Knocked my spirit lightuess,
With no dream of vain regret.
And tho other friends supplant me
And time drown all regrets,
New happiness enthrall thee
And thou the past forget
I've yet the priceless treasure.
or assurance written here
That l won the first full measure,
Ola love to them so dear.

Rough Board for women--Ths washboard.
New-York tribune., 1876-12-16

dress delivered on this subject by M. Favre-
Perret, member of the International Jury on
Watches of the Exhibition. The address mas
been delivered successively at three Oh
the great centers of watch manufacture In
Switzerland. 1t is of especial. value as
giving the undisguised opinions OF
one who is at once manufacturer and an ex-
pert. It's admissions are very striking. AS 10
the prospect of Swiss competition, they are
almost mournful in their completeness M.
Favre- -Perret says he is terrified by the danger
to which Swiss industry is exposed. he EVIL
IDENTIFY regards the prospect of recovering tne
American market as almost hopeless; his fear
is that American watches will take precedence
in Europe. A remarkable feature of this address
is that it offers no recommendations, after pre-
senting facts which it is evident were ast0und-
ing to his hearers. Perhaps no sentence In
the whole address is moro significant on this
point than the statement that If the Philadel-
phia Exhibition had been deferred for tive
years, the Matchmaking industry OF the Swiss
would have been annihilated before they knew
why or how the blow was delivered.
Not less interesting is M. Favre-Perrets
testimony to the excellence of our watches;
To him and to his audiences the precision of
the work turned out by machinery Is marvel;
he declares that when the American watch is
put together it is already regulated. His tests
of watch taken indiscriminately from a lot
of the Waltham manufacture that bad re-
ceived no special or separate regula-
tion-one, also, of the Hfth grade
filled him with admiration. He recounts the
near exactness of its performance under va
riety of circumstances; and adds the remark
of the adjuster to whom he afterward handed
it, that not one such watch would be found III
$4,000 of Swiss manufacture. 1t will be very
pleasant to Americans to read such testimony
from foreign Iexpcrts; it is still pleasantcr to
know that it is wholly deserved.
