RIacauIay's Mother.

Lord Macaulay, the great essayist
and historian, wrote the words
Children, look into those eyes, lis
ten to that dear voice, notice the
feelings of even a single touch that
is bestowed upon you by that gentle
hand! Make much Of it while yet
you have that most precious Of all
good gifts-,a loving mother. Read
the untathumable love OF those eyes,
the kind anxiety of that tone and
look, however Slight your pain. In
after life you may have friends
fond, dear, kind friends-but never
will you have again the ineNpressi.
bic love and gentleness lavished up
on you which none but a mother
bestows. Often do l sigh in my
struggle With the hard unfeeling
world for the sweet, deep security
felt when OF an evening, nestled in
her bosom, l listened to some quiet
tale, suitable to my age, read in her
tender and untiring voice. Never
can 1 forget her sweet glapees cast
upon me when ! appeared asleep;
never her kiss of peace at night.
Years have passed away since we
laid her beside my father in the old
church yard, yet still her voice
whispers from the grave, and her
eyes watch over me as l visit spots
long since hallowed to the memory
of my mother

Who should Bow Els.

Who has not heard ladies express
mild surprise because some man
who had been presented to them
had not bowed to them on the
street, at the theater, or in the
drawing room? If you ask them,
"did you recognize himY' they will
be apt to reply, ooh, no; of course
not. He should have spoken first"
Being reminded Of the well defined
etiquette bearing on the subject,
they are likely to add 81 know
that very well; but no woman wants
to take the initiative. Men should
do that; it's their business; it does
not belong to us. No one expects
us to make ourselves so bold The
truth is, the majority OF women are
naturally accustomed to man pay
ing court to them, to his making
the first advance in everything,
that they can't find it in their sexu-
al constituencies, in their severely
conventional selves, to obey a man
date they originally issued, and still
insist on perpetuating. Not one
woman in ten Thousand has any
fault to find with the rule; in fact,
we have never known a woman to
object to it Nevertheless she sell
dom follows it in her own case.
Sometimes a woman says, AS sort
of self justification, "Supposing 1
should speak to a man, on meeting
him after an introduction, and he
should not remember me! How
awkward I should appear; how
overwhelmed I should be with
shame TO observe that he did not
recognize me. 1 can't afford to
place myself in a position to seem
to be cut by any man." If any
number Of women feel thus, the
point Of etiquette should be changed
in order to save their sensibilities.
IN truth, however, the objection is
not well made. There is not the
smallest danger that any man, pre-
Stunning him, Of necessity, to be a
gentleman, at least in respect to
his observing the ordinary forms
of courtesy, would refuse or hest
tate to return the acknowledgement
of a woman, even though he might
not have remotest recollection OF
ever having seen her before, OF
though he were convinced she had
confounded him with somebody
else. And fact that he had been
recognized by a woman would be
the strongest presumptive evidence
that he had been presented to her
Men are not likely either to forget
their feminine acquaintance, or to

Robinson, or Miss Blank for Miss

Letter from East Tennessee.

Enclosed find specimens of a late
discovery in the United States
which is said to be valuable, and
will save a great deal of money, as
it was and has been shipped from
Turkey. The hard substance is
known by the name of Cavundum,
and for its cutting qualities is next
thing to diamond, and is much used
for dressing down castings and cut
lery. The first discovered was in
Macon county, North Carolina, and
l visited the mines with a gentle
man who wished to lease the prop
erty for a Cincinnati company, but
the ov ners wanted eighteen thou
sand dollars cash at sight without
a test, which I think is unreasona-
bic, and they will bluff the capital
ist unless they give the privilege of
testing the quantity. The mica or
Using glass is found in different
counties, and is being worked on a
small scale. They have a variety
of minerals in western NorGh Caro-
lima, but they are in need of a rail
road and capital to deYelop them,
They have two railroads in contem-
plation, and are living in hopes of
having an outlet for their minerals.
The best of iron ore is found in
some counties, but at present prices
it would not pay for the hauling. 1
know of but one State to compare
with n. c. for its mountains, and
that is West Virginia. The roads
as a general thing are very rough,
but the scenery is magnificent, and
on some of the highest mountains
the trees were not budding, and
vegetation generally very backward
The noted Ball mountain Is 1900
feet higher than the valley road. and
timber only grows about half way
up its sides. There is but little ex-
citement about electiona, but
learned that the Union League was
being nolsed in some portions of
that State, and l think it strange
that so many republicans say they
are oppoeed to the measures of
their party, and viii meet not only
in league, but vote with them in
every election. The excitement in
East Tennessee is small, but con
Yentions are being held, as there are
so many aspirants for Office.

Eggs in the Hat.

The Jackson Dispatch says cell
ebrated joke-player of that city has
at last been beat at his own game
beat in finding eggs" On his
way to Lafayette Street one evening
this week opposite the grocery store
of Messrs. S. d c., he was hailed
by an old chum and invited over,
which he did to the pleasure of all
present. But to bring him in with
out arousing any suspicion on his
part his attention was called to the
fine coffee mill in the store; while
commenting on the mill, some one
in the crowd proposed that he could
hide eggs about the joker's person
that a young man present could not
find. The proposition was accepted
instantly and the young man turned
his back while the eggs were being
child, which were placed in the
joker's hat on his head, and, "all
ready" was cried out by the crowd,
eager 10 enjoy the fun. The finder
at once came up, feeling from boots
pockets, etc, up, and quicker than
you could think come down on jok
er's hat with both hands, exclaim-
ing-''in your hat! in your hatr'
And such a smashing of eggs as
then and there occurred was never
Witnessed in that city before. That
young ''Iimb of the paw presented
quite an unenviable appearance with
the mixed eggs trickling from his
nose.

Don't Be Too Sensitive.

They are as touchy as hair triggers.
If they meet an acquaintance who
happens to be preoccupied with bust
ness they attribute his abstraction
in some mode peasonal to them
selves, and take umbrage accord
ingly. They lay on others the
fruit of their irritability. IndIges-
ton makes them see impertinence
in every one they come in cOntaC
with. Innocent persons, who rev.
er dreamed of giving ofense are
astonished to find some unfortunate
word or momentary taciturnity
mistaken for an insult. To say the
least, the habit is unfortunate. Ii
is far wiser to take the more chart
table view of our fellow beings, and
not suppose that a slight was in
tended, unless the neglect is open
and direct. After all, too, life takes
its hues in great degree from the
color Of our minds. five are frank
and generous, the world treats us
kindly; if, on the contrary, we are
suspicious, men learn 10 be cold
