Who are CreOIes?

BrfUTe csIIHe % New Orleans,
says correspondent, I thought
Creole was a halfbrced of some
mcclellan or Spanish or French
i didn't exactly know which,
! think the Northern people have
the same notion, and will be CRATE
full if / correct them before they
come down here and show their ig-
norance, as I did. a Creole is a ma
tive of Louisiana. Any one who is
born here is Creole, just as any
who Is born in Indiana is a Hoosier,
and in Ohio a Buckeye. They
don't have dark, pensive, and ro-
mantle hair; they don't sit on We
randas with their fingers against
their CHEEK, and a shapely arm, bare
to the elbow, resting on the balus-
trade; and they don't look off into
the gardens of bananas and droop-
ing palms. with aIIigators craving
over the walk. 1t is base repre-
sentation, this idea; but I was sor-
~ to have my romance shattered
when 1 found it out.

Sweet Music.

A young girl, as pretty as they
grow EN-, went INTO music store and
asked the clerk inq uiriLgly, if he
had "A Heart that Loves me Only?"
No, he said, ''but here's a Health
to Thee, Mary" That wouldn't

asked, Have you 'One Sweet Kiss
Before We Pan?'" That clerk look
ed up and down the store, the book
keeper was out, the boss as up
stairs trying to sell a Granger a
wheezy melodeon, and so he leaned
over the counter and turned about
half a dozen of the best and most
artistically finished articles that the
astOnished young lady had ever
seen offered in a job lot. She
didn't say much, but she went out
of the store in a step and a half,
and rubbed her cheeks thoughtfully
all the way home.

\ Farmers Daughter.

My daughter keeps my farm &C
counts, sir; and she is as systematic
and particular as even my son was,
who kept them before he left home
I tell you it does girls (and he
might have added boys also) good
to give them some responsibility,
and set them to watching things
about the farm and household.
They learn, l find, economy by it,
and soon discover that their old IA
ther is not, necessarily, grabbed
old curmudgeon, because he does
not loosen his purse-strings when
ever they see something they hap
pen to fancy; for they discover the
real reason why the purse should
not be opened" So said a progress
sive farmer recently.

The Difference Between 'em.

There is a vast difference, says
the Danbury News, in the conduct of
a man and a woman in new clothes.
When a woman gets a new suit she

and for hours will walk cOntentedIy
along a crowded thoroughfare re-
ceiving fresh impulses of JOY every
time another woman scans her ward
robe But a man is 50 different.
He won't put on his new clothes
for the first time until it is dark
Then he goes down town so eau
tiOusly as TO almost create the I'M
preston that he is sneaking along
If he sees a crowd on a corner he
will slip across the way to avoid
them, AMI when he goes into his
grocery he tries to get behind as
many barrels and boxes as he can.
All the time he IS trying his level
best to appear as if the suit was six
months old, all the while realizes
that he is making an Internal fail
ure of it. We hope the time will
come when new pants will be so
folded by the manufacturer that
they won't show a ridge along the
the front of each leg when the
wearer dons them.

The Influence of a Woman.

A few evenings ago I heard a gen
tleman speak of California at the
time of its first settlement. As is
we'll known, the 'gold fever carried
many New Englanders to that re-
gion.
The miners, perhaps not natural
~ coarse or iIliterate men, but yet
being left to themselves, working
hard ali day in the mines and seeing
no female society, soon became
careless o: their personal appear
ance, and, when Sunday came, they
hailed it as q holiday, and treated
themselves to all manner Of games,
some of which were low and de
grading. Prize-fighting, gambling,
coek-fighting, drinking, anything to
pass away the time; and all this in
dirty clothing, unshaven, unwashed,
with hair unkempt. What a terri
BILE condition! One day a lady
came. Presently her arrival was
noised about am ng the miners,
and the next Sunday every miner,
far and near, made himself present
able. In the course Of the day
they congregated in the ladies Vi
cinity, and while pretending to
chat with each other were seen
peering about, trying to catch a
glimpse of the lady
In a few days it became known
that she wished to take boarders,
and Immediately every miner was
ready, with tools in hand, to do his
share towards building a log house
for her accommodation. She soon
changed the state of affairs; and
the Sabbath day was no longer des-
ecrated by gambling and prizo-fght-
ing, and the men became person.
ally tidy and decent IN appearance.
Indeed ''such was her influence,
said the gentleman, ''that it would
have been death to the man who
dared lisp a word against herr
Such was the tribute 1 heard paid a
woman.

A North Carolina exchange tells
of a man living in Wilson, that
State, fifty-four years of age, who
never owed a cent to a living soul
in his life, and as the records will
show, was the first man for the past
thirty years to pay his taxes to the
sheriff. Though a blacksmith and
plow maker by trade, he cuts and
makes his own clothing, and when

pillow, upset an ak, or perform any
other job in the line with as much
skill as her husband.

The Spirit of MethOdism.

As q system Methodism is com
pick, yet simple and efficient in its
workings. 1t has but one great aim,
and by its episcopacy, its grand
itinerant organization, its Sunday
schools, and missionary enterprises,
its broad and catholic plans of edu-
cation, its local ministry, its book
concern and religious journals, it
seeks to carry out that aim-tO &C
cOmplish that object.
lst. Its spirit is, therefore, agrees
sive. 1t attacks sin wherever found.
1t opposes all that is vicious in
tendency, false in profession, de
PRAYED in conduct, or licentiOus in
life. 1t allows no compromise with
sin, no departure from principle
Its warfare is constant and perpet-
ual, and must end in the triumph of
truth, and the eXaltation of virtue.
2nd. The spirit of MethOdism Is
one of self-sacriice. This pervades
the entire body. 1t glows in the
bosom of the Bishops, venerable in
years, fires the heart of the young
missionary as he leaves his native
land for foreign climes, and governs
the great body of the laity through
out our vast connection. The itin-
Grant yields the right of selecting
his church. and the church surren-
ders the privilege of selecting the
pastor. The loyal church never
dictates to the appointing power,
however DESTROYS for a particular
pastor it may be. This self sacrific-
ing spirit assures a pastor for every
church, and a place for every
preacher. 1t prevents all friction
and represses dissatisfaction. 1t is
as oil to our vast machinery, so that
it all moves with the uniformity and
majesty Of the wheels in EzekieFs
vision.
3rd. 1t is a catholic spirit. a
true Methodist cannot be a bigot.
He must allow to all men the right
of private judgement. No requisi
ton is made of those desiring to be-
come members, other than is found
in a desire to fee the wrath to come
and TO be saved from sin. Forms
and ceremonies are small matters.
Baptism may be performed accord
ing to any mode. No man is con-
demned for his creed. 1t IN
churches no denomination. 1t hon
ors the Episcopal as its sister
church. It gives the right hand of
fellowship to the Presbyterian and
hOnors its learning and piety and
joins with it in clarifying the grace
of God. 1t blesses the Baptist in
his happy experience, and Joins in
humble testimony to the power of
experimental religion. 1t bids good
speed to all fo.ms of Christianity
which have any of the power Of the
Gospel of Christ. In q word, the
spirit of Methodism Is the spirit Of
love TO God and man. 1t is already
girdlIng the globe. II has touched
By its fire all denominations, and
melted prejudice iato love, and al
most banished bigotry from the
Protestant world. Let US be true TO
this spirit and our church shall be
houored Of God and its destiny be
brighter than Imagination can con
ceive or language describe.

Cheerful People.

God bless the cheerful persons
man, woman, or child, old or young,
illiterate or educated, handsome or
homely. Over and above every
other social trait stands cheerful
ness. What the sun is TO nature,
and what the stars are to night, are
cheerful persons. in the house and
by the way side. They go unob-
trusively and unconsciously about
their silent mission, Frightening up
every scence with the happiness
beaming from their faces. We love
to SIT near them, we love the glance
Of their eye, the tone of their voice;
che little children find them out, oh,
50 quickly! amidst the densest
crowd, and passing by the knotted
brow and compressed lip, glide
near, and lay a confdirg little hand
on their knee, and lift clear young
eyes TO their loving faces

Loss by Dryness.

It Is stated that corn loses o-e-
fifth and wheat one-fourteenth by
drying. From the estimate made.
it seems that it would b.; more prof
liable for the farmer to sell unshell
ed corn in the fall at 70 cents, than
keep it until spring and sell at 81,
and that wheat at 81 25in December
is equal to 81 80 the succeeding
June In cases of potatoes-taking
those that rot and are otherwise
Iost-together with the shrinkage,
there IS little doubt that between
October and June the loss to the
owner who holds them is not less
than thirty three per cent.

How to Teach a Canary.

A Pennsylvania has taught a
canary bird to sing Home, Sweet
Home" in this way: He placed the
canary in a room where it could not
hear the singing of other birds, sus-
pended its cage from the ceiling, so
that it would see its reflection in a
mirror, and beneath the glass placed
a musical box that was regulated
to play no other tune but Home,
Sweet Home" Hearing no other
sound but this, and believing the
music proceeded from the bird it
saw in the mirror, the young canary
soon began 70 catch the notes, and
finally got so that it sings the song
perfectly.

A Texas correspondent of the
Rome Courier does not give a very
encouraging view Of that FL Dorado
He says:
This whole State is over flooded
with immigrations from ali parts of
the country. All the new corners
are cursing Texas and wishing they
were out of the place; but, alas :
how few of them can get out of it
without money or friends. Goods
are very high in Texas; you can get
them as 4 general thing, cheaper in
Rome. There is more gambling car
ried on in Texas than in any three
Southern States.

1t is Better.

Better to wear a calico dress with
out trimming, ifit be paid for, than
to owe the shopkeeper for the most
elegant silk, cut and trimmed in the
most bewitching manner.
Better to live in a log cabin ali
your own than a brown stone man
sion belonging to some one else.
Better walk forever than run into
debt for a horse and carriage.
Better to gaze upon bare walls
than on brilliant display of charm
ing but unpaid for pictures.

Tell Them the Truth.

Let the girls know the truth
Not long ago a gentleman visiting
the Female High School complied
with a request to talk to the girls
Urging them to be industrious, and
make the best of their opportunities
TO gain knowledge and strength of
character, he said: Little as you
all think of it, fully one half of you
will marry husbands who, as bust
ness men, will be utter failures. -
T"Home and school for March.
OF course every girl thought she
belonged to the other half. Yet we
can not repress the thought, that
if the girls had less compliments
and hattery, and more truth told
them, they would improve every Op-
portunity of girlhood, and fit them
selves for the emergencies of the
untried future. Our Marietta girls,
we trust, will think of this. While
marriage is now the ultimatum Of
your hopes, yet it may be the
source of untold misery and hard
ship, for the man you marry may
be business failure" then comes
the time when your energies OF
mind and body Will be taxed to earn
a livelihood. Ii you have improved
the time of youth, have stored away
knowledge, have acquired habits OF
industry, know how 20 practice
economy, to plan and execute, then
you may retrieve losses and win
success where your husband failed.
But if you both are deficient, then
both of you will go down together,
dependent creatures upon the boun-
" of others more fortunate. Girls
may laugh at this, but they do not
know what the future has in store
for them; they do not know what
luckless mishap may befall them.
The widows weeds" may be worn
by them ere they emerge from the
bright enjOyments of the honey
moon; or perchance a prohigate
drunkard may steal the happiness
from their hearts and bring poverty
and wretchedness TO their homes
Oh, there are such eases in this
beautiful world. While stately ships
sail majestieally over the billowy
waves, there are wrecks scattered
along the shore. The happiness
and pre- sperity of to-day is no surety
that there will be no blights and
crashes in { e distant dimness.-
How fortunate then you will be if
