SATURDAY NIGHT.

Placing the little hats all in aiow,
Ready for church on the morrow, you know
Washing wee faces and little black fists,
Getting them ready aud fit to be kissed
Putting hem into clean garments and white
That is what mothers are doing tonight.
Spying out holes in the little worn hose,
Laying by shoes that are worn through tn
toes,
Looking DER garments so faded and thin
Who hut.a mother knows where to begin7
Changing button to make it look right
That is what mothers are doing tonight.
Calling the little ones all round her chair;
Telling them stories of Jesus of old,
Who loved to gather the lambs to HIS fold;
Watc hing, they listen with weary delight
That is what mothers are doing tonight.
Creeping so softly to take last peep,
After the little ones all are asleep;
Anxious to know if the children arc warm,
Tucking the blanket round each little form,
Kissing little face, rosy and bright
lhas is what mothers are doing tonight,
KneeIing down gently beside the white bed,
Lowly and meeky she bows down her head,
Praying aa only mother can pray,
g God, guide and keep them from going

He rushed from place to place,

First he attacked and bit splendid

Judge Smylie, of the tenth .judi>
cial district, has resigned. In our
opinion the judge has succumbed to
bulidozing, and, in yielding to the
clamor that few newspapers raised
about his ears, he has shown a weak>
ness that we were unprepared to
witness in one occupying such a high
p0sition.-[Lexington Advertiser.
Judge Smiley did not resign for
fear of bulldozers, nor has he shown
any weakness by doing that which
i'll health and old age dictated. The
Judge is q man of stern integrity,
a gentleman who, when be sees his
duty clearly. never hesitates mo-
meut how to proceed. And, so far
as the bulldozers are concerned,
they are myths-creatures of the
imaginative powers Of such papers
as the Vicksburg Herald and New
Orleans Times, which have in vain
to malign and disgrace
this pure Did man, who is a peer of
the realm. Hereafter, brother Hos
kins. be a little careful how you at-
tack the character of such unsul-
lied and spotless gentlemen as
Judge omylie has proved himself to
be. Nothing but i'll health would
have induced him to resign the po-
sition he has SO ably, judiciously
and satisfactorily filled for nearly a
quarter Of q century.-LSummi
