LITTLE BROWN HANDS.

They drive home the cows from the pasture,
Up through the long, shady lane, field,
Where the quail whistles loud in the wheat
That is yellow with ripening grain.
They find in the underwriting grasses,
Where the scnrlet-lipped strawberry grows
They gather the earliest snowdrops,
And the first crimson bud oe tho rose.
They toss the hay in the meadow,
They gather the elder-bloom white,
They find where the dusky grapes purple
In the soft-tinted October light.
They know where the apples hang ripest,
And are sweeter than Italy's wines,
They know where the fruit hangs thickest,
On the long, thorny blackberry vines.
They gather the delicate seaweeds,
And build tiny castles Of sand;
They pick up the beautiful sea shells
Fairy banks that have drifted to land.
They wave from the tall, rocking tree tops,
Where the ORIOLES hammock-nest swings,
And at nighttime are folded in sumber
BY u song that fond mother sings.
Those who toll bravely are strongest;
The humble and poor become great;
And from those brown handed children
Shall grow mighty rulers of State.
The pen of the author and statesman,
The noble and wise of the land
The sword and chisel and palette,
Shall be held in the little brown hand.

DIsREsPECT AT HOME One of the
dangers of the house life is this habit Of
disrespcct-th which is bred by famil-
iarity. People who are all beauty and
sunshine for crowd of strangers, for
whom they have not the faintcst alFcc-
ton, are all ugliness and gloom for their
own, by whose love they live. The
pleasant little prettiness of dress and
personal adornment, which mark the
desire to please, are put on only for
admiration and goes for nothing, while
the house companions are only the
ragged gowns and thread-barc coats, the
touzled hair and stubby beard, which, If
marking the ease and comfort Of the
''sans facon' of home, mark also indif-
ference and disrespect which do so much
damage to the sweetness and delicacy Of
daily life. And what is true Of the dress
is trucr still Of the manners and tempers
of home, in both of which we find too
often that want of respect which seems
to run side by side with affection and
the custom Of familiarity. II is a regret
able habit under any Of its conditions,
but never more so than when it invades
the home and endangers still more that
which is already too much endangered
by other things. Parents and up-bring-
ers do not pay enough attention to this
in the young. They allow habits of dis
respect to be formed-rude, rough, inso-
lent, impatient, and salve over the sore
with the stereotyped excuse "They mean
nothing by it," which if VIC look at
Alright is worse than no excuse at all
for if they really mean nothing by it, and
their disrespect is not what it seems to
be, the result Of strong anger, uncon-
trollable temper, but merely habit,
then it ought to be conquered without
loss of time, being merely manner that
hurts all parties alike.

PARoxYsMAL.-A curly headed seven
ycar-old came dashing into the kitchen,
the other day, where his mother was
mixing bread, and burted out:
'Ma, who's Beccher %
''Beecher ? You should say Mr..
Beecher, Willie Why, he is a famous
divine of Brooklyn, New York. Why
do you ask that p
"Oh, nothing Only while ago /
was playing out by tho gate, and heard
pa say to Mr.. Smith that if the truth
were known, there were good many
Beechers about; and he said they had
been in the Beecher business considera-
bly, themselves, and had been lucky at
it. Mr.. Smith laughed and winked at
pa, and he said: You betp' Then
pa said there'd be hurricane if you sus-
pected anything Pa looked down and
seen me, and slapped me, and told me
to go into the house"
The mother scratched the dough from
her arm, gave Willie doughnut, and
sent him out to play. She then stepped
to the door and crooked her finger at her
faithless husband, who came in, unsus-
| pecting as a lamb. When he was fairly
inside the house, she laid him quietly to
rest behind tho stove with potato
mashcr, and then she packed up and
went home to her mother The bene-
dict has hired cook and the doctor is
treating him for kick which he says he
received from his off mule.

People who sit at their front windows
and stare at their neighbors from morn
ing till night, will, perhaps, not be de-
TERED by the fact that South Brooklyn
woman, in this line Of business, had her
nose frozen fast to the window-pane one
day last week, and was subsequently
obliged to have the tip of it amputated.
Nevertheless, the affair cast the radiance
Of profound joy over the entire neigh

SEARCH FOR Where do men
usually discover the women who after
wards become their wives is a question
We have occasionally heard discussed,
and the result it invariably comes to il
worthy mentioning to our young lady
readers. Chance has much to do in the
affair but then there are important
governing circumstances It is certain
that few men make selection from ball
rooms, or any other places of public
gaicty and nearly as few are influenced
by what may be called showing off in
the street, or by any allurements Of
dress. Our conviction is that ninety
nine hundredths Of all the fnery with
which the women decorate, or load their
persons, go for nothing. as far as hus-
band catching is concerned Where and
how, then. do men find their wives In
the quiet homes Of their parents or guar
dians-at the Preside where the domestic
graces and feelings are alone demon
strated. These are the charms which
most surely attract the high as well as
the humble Against these all the
inery and airs in the world sink into in
significance.

Gail Hamilton on Character.

When the good ship Schiller was
stcered by faithlcss captain upon the
fatal rocks and went down slowly to her
doom, group of six people sat in the
pavilion, holding each Others hands,
calm. praying. awaiting death One
was a girl, young, petted, surrounded
with luxury, having fed on the roses
aud lain in the lilies of life," and one was
a scholar, trained in many tongues, full
of sweetness and light, and one was a
woman of science and skill, with a pur-
pose and career, and one was u young
daughter, with life all before her, and
one was wife and one was a husband,
with their consecratcd past. And there
sat they, in the midst of the night, going
down slowly into the shrouding waters,
calm praycrful, conquering death. And
as the waters rose around them they
arose, still holding each others hands.
And so, weak, helpless. they were en-
quilted in the awful depths, but, sublime
y triumphant, they passed out into tho
unseen universe. 1t is character that
prevails. What odds whether it is music
or medicine or costume or color, mans
remembering garb or woman's null
titudinous idropery that has occupied the
mind, if so be it can encounter the vi
cissitudes of life with fortitude and face
death with tranquility

The REPUBLICAN REFORMERS
RIGHT.

We think Messrs. George William Cur
tbs, Carl Schurz, William NJ. Grosvenor
and all that race do quite right to remain
in the ranks of the Republican party
Toward the close of Gen. Grants admin
istration they espied the necessity of a
great reform. They wrote about it, and
talked about it, and made themselves
very conspicuous. They may not be re-
markably far sighted men, but there is
one thing so self evident that they can
not fail to see it, and that is, if Hayes is
elected President the same occasion for
reform will continue. 1t will not only
exist in the latter part of his term, but
from the very beginning. With the
great body of the same subordinates kept
in Office whom Grant appointed, how is
Hayes going to administer the govern
ment in way essentially different from
Grants?
Now, these gentlemen are, by occupa-
ton, writers and orators for reform; and
if Hayes is elected they are certain not
to be thrown out of business. With real
ly reformed Administration they would
have nothing left to talk about or write
about. A practical reformer would not
answer their purpose at all. They are
like beggar with sore leg. If the sore
leg be amputated, his occupations gone.

SAM TILDEN is a sour, cross, crusty, sell
fish old bachelor, over threescore years
old. The women are not likely to dis
tress themselves very greatly to secure
his election.-[Chicago Tribune.
The Chicago Tribune knows nothing
about Sam Tlden. or if it does, it suffers
its partisan zeal to pervert the truth
He is not sour, cross, crusty or selfish,
though we do admit, that he is on old
bachelor. Uncle Samuel rises betimes
in the morning, takes his horseback ride
with regularity, and begins the day with
smiling tace So far from being crusty
he is very genial and kind, and his coun-
tenance, with its usual happy smile, for
bids the thought that he is sour and
cross, and experience with him proves
that he is not. AS to the interest the
women will take in Uncle Samuel's elec.
ton, we have no fears that it will not be
great and ardent. They admire the man
for his services in behalf of reform, and
only pity his forlorn bachelor state.

GOVERNOR TILDEN, in 1873, in reply to
the New York Times, in which he dis
cussed the New York City Ring its ori-
gin, maturity and fall, said, and by these
words he stands to day
II do desire that the organization of
the Democratic party, and of all parties,
should be in the hands of better class
of men than eflate years have controlled
them"
Governor Tilden declined retainers
from Fisk in matters that involved no
scandal, but in which he had no sympa-
thy, after Fisk had informed him that
he had paid counsel, during the year,
many times the largest fee he had ever
received; adding, 1--WE don't want any
body else we ant youp He was open
in his denunciatiOns of the judicial abu-
ses in New York, so frequent at that
time, and at meeting of the Bar Associ-
alton on February l, 1870, upon being
called upon, said:
"If the Bar is to become merely mode
of making money, making it in the most
convenient way possible, but making it
at all hazards, then the Bar is degraded.
(Applause.) If the Bar is to be merely
an institution that seeks to win causes,
and win'them by back door access to the
Judiciary, then it is not only degraded,
but it is corrupt. (Great applause.)
"Sir, | am as peaceable a man as my
friend Nicoll, yet 1 confess that his words
of peace sounded a little too strong in
my ears. The Bar, if it is to continue to
exist, if it would restore itself to the dig
nifty and honor which it once possessed,
must be bold in aggression. lGreat ap.
plause.) If it will do its duty to itself, it
will do its duty to the profession which
it follows, and to which it is devoted, the
Bar can do everything else. 1t can have
reformed Constitutions, it can have re-
formed Judiciary, it can have the ad-
ministration of justice made pure and
honorable, and can restore both the Ju-
dietary and the Bar, until it shall be
once more, as it formerly was, an honor
able and elevated calling. Applause. J

COL. MCCLURE on HA YES.

Col. A. Mcclure, of the Philadelphia
Times, was at st. Louis taking notes of
the Democratic convention. He tele-
graphed thence to his paper as follows
But Hayes is only a ahoating ark on the
Republican stream, and he will either
glide over the course to an easy victory,
or be utterly wrecked and broken into
fragments before the end of the journey
shall be reached. He has given no in
spiration to his party, no quickening pull
sation to the mass, no enthusiasm even
to party leaders, and he will be the fee
blest of all candidates to resist an adverse
tide should one surge against him during
the struggle. He appeals to no positive
aspirations, rallies no partisan allies by
his guarantees of aggressive reform, and
leaves unnumbered voters of his own
faith, who would gladly do better under
any party banner ifthe assurance can be
absolute that the word of promise would
not be given to the ear to be broken to
the hope. Such is Tilden's rival, and
lIu6u Ctu LII VuO lliBu hlSaoulO Vi puD-
lie confidence that is necessary to break
the weakened lines of his adversary. He
will be powerful in the conflict, regard
less of factions and alterations from his
own party ranks He has positive quail
tiles he has craftsmanship; he has Or
ganization he has the prestige of sue
cess. The country hungers for master
leader; it is weary of the driveling me-
diocrity that plays upon party force, and
and takes refuge behind party entrench-
ments when grave wrongs have been
done. 1t is sick at heart with profigacy
and waste. tits humiliated by degen-
crate and a degenerating standard of
public integrity. 1t is shamed by open
rascality, and appalled, by violent usur-
patton. From all these causes the hearts
of the people send out their ceaseless
protests like the sad song of the shell,
that ever echoes the fretful murmers of
the sea.

SOME so-called reform newspapers sup
porting Hayes for the Presidency, say
that a great depends upon his letter of
acceptance given to the public. If any
real reformers expect Hayes to give them
comfort they are doomed to disappoint-
ment. In all his public career he has
never shown enough care about reform
to denounce Grantism, or to condemn by
a single word any of the multitudinous
crimes and corruptions of Republican of
ficials. 1t is rot likely, when he is lock-
ing to Grant and his crowd to pull him
through the campaign, that Mr.. Hayes is
going to stand on tip-toe and howl for re-
form, thereby insulting not only Grant,
but all the controlling forces of the Re-
publican party. If Hayes was running
as Democratic candidate there would
be some chance for him to give utter
ance to reform sentiments, but he is not;
he is the candidate of the party whose
leaders have stolen the country into a
condition of poverty-he cannot there
fore afford to insult that party with any
talk about reform.
