fHE OTHER FEMALE MAsoN.-Re-
Gently the Observer, after referring to the
fact that the Hon. Mrs. Aldworth, of
England, is supposed to be the only fe-
male Mason in the world, divulged the
fact that Mrs. B. B. Darlington, who was
at one time resident of this State, was
also a member of the ancient and hon
orable order. The Observers article has
brought the Shelby aurora to the front,
and in its issue of yesterday, the editor,
Mr.. J. P. Babington, writes as follows:
"Inasmuch as the lady referred to in
the above article is our mother, we deem
it our duty to republish it and make che
necessary corrections. The story is cor
rect with the exception of places and
age. The lady's father was native of
New York, and moved to Greenup coun-
ty, Kentucky, where our mother was born
and raised. The place where she was
made a Mason was in an unfinished
church room. She secreted herself under
the pulpit, going in at an entrance from
the side, and was eventually discovered
while leaving her hiding place after the
lodge had adjourned. She was about Is
years old when she was made Mason,
and our father did not join the order for
nearly 90 years after they were married
We do not belong to the order, but we
have it from men who do that she is
brighter in Masonry than large mum:
her of men who have passed to the third
degree. Our mother is still living, and
is now in Boyd county, KY, a few miles
from where she was first initiated into
the mysteries of that ancient order oil
Masons." Charlotte Observer.

: The Ladies' FayOrite.

Among The many thousands Of ladies
who have used DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription and pronounced it their favor
ite remedy, because so efficient in the
diseases and weaknesses peculiar to wo-
men, are many who are well and favora-
blv known in the world of letters, as
well as artists, musicians, and whole
host of names from the brilliant ranks OF
wealth and fashion. II is prominently
the ladies' Favorite Prescription, its use,
while being far more safe and efficient,
exempting them from those painful, caus-
tic operations, and the wearing of those
mechanical contrivanccs made like Peter
Pindar's razor-seller's razor's-to sell
rather than to cure.

What is "Tucking."

A bothered looking citizen came into
the Gazette office yesterday afternoon and
respectfully asked to be let look at the
dictionary. He sat down and rather
anxiously thumped Webster awhile.
"What word are you looking for?"
asked reporter, seeing that the stranger
had failed to strike the trail.
"Wcll," said the man, in q burst of
confidence, "you see Pve only been mar
ried short time, and my wile's gone up
to Truckee on visit, and she's written
to me to look in the bottom of her trunk
for lot of 'tucking' and send it to her.
Now, what l want to know is, what in
the blazcs is 'tucking?' 1t amt in the
dictionary"
"Tucking?" said the reporter, briskly,
"why, 'tucking' is the stuff the girls make
by poking a sort of short-turned fish
hook through q hole and catching the
thread and drawing it back again"
Then the editor spoke up contemptu-
ously and said that man who was so
ignorant as that ought to hold his tongue.
What the reporter had described was
crocheting. Everybody ought to know
what "tucking" was. The ladies in
making it used little contrivance
shaped like mussel, with thread wound
up inside of it. Tucking5 could be pur-
CHASED, he believed, for ten or fifteen
cents q yard, and why intelligent girls
should waste whole day in making
what they could get for a short bit was
more than he could understand. In an
swer to a question from the admiring re-
porter, the editor said he had been told
that "tucking" was used in trimming the
under garments of the fair sex, but why
things should be ornamented which a
fellow would get licked for trying to look
at-or perhaps shot-was beyond his
comprehension.
The married stranger said the editor
was mistaken; that the article he men,
toned was not "tucking"-itwas was tatting.
This he knew for fact.
The editor observed that when a man
came to the Gazette Office for informa-
ton, the editor, when he gave it, didn't
like to be told that he lied. If the
stranger wanted to avoid trouble, he had
better get out and 60 to the devil. AS
the editor had grown red in the face and
his eyes were blazing, the married stran-
ger coughed fecbly and SUNK down
stairs.
In the meantime, what is "tucking? ~

An IMpoRTANT DEcIsIoN.-A a suit
was brought at Middletown, in this State,
in 1875, against the landlord and tenant
of liquor saloon, for damages caused by
the loss of horse which WAS driven TO
death by the plaintiffs son while intoxi-
Gated by liquors supplied to him at the
saloon. The plaintiff obtained verdict
in his favor, which was confirmed at the
General Term, and the landlord carried
the case, so far as he was concerned, to
the Court of Appeals. The action was
brought under the law of 1873, known as
the Civil Damage law, which makes the
owner or lessor of premises Oh which in
toxicating liquors are sold Jointly liable
with the tenant for any damage done by
an intoxicated person who has been sup
piled with liquor on such premises. The
Court of Appeals now ailirms the judg-
ment of the lower courts, thus establish
ing the liability of owners or landlords
of any premises in the State used i'll the
liquor business for damages done by any
drunken person who may procure liquor
at such places. If man should get in
toxicated in a New York saloon and
commit murder, infict a wound or do
any injury to person or property while
in that condition, the landlord or owner
of the premises would, under this decis-
ion, be liable not only for damages actu-
ally sustained by the parties in interest;
Dut for exemplary damages as we'll

To the Democratic Party of South
- Carolina.

The State Executive Committee extend
to the Democracy of South Carolina their
warmest congratulations for the nNgnifi-
cent victory achieved in the recent cleo
ton, which has been as peaceful as it is
triumphant. 1t is especially gratifying
that so many thousands of the colored
people of the State have united with us
in perpetuating home rule and good
government. We extend to them our
most-eordial appreciation of their good
sense and patriotic action, and we would
impress upon our people the necessity of
continued unity and harmony. We have
achieved grand results, and every true
Carolinian's heart responds with graft
tude, but much yet remains to be done.
We must keep our armor bright and
girded on, and our ranks closed up, to
meet any exigency the future may de-
velop. And now that the campaign is
over, and its work done, we feel that we
cannot lay aside our active duties with
out expressing profound regret at the
distressing accident which has befallen
our beloved Chief Magistrate. This
alone mars the completeness oe our
triumph. In his suffering he has the
sympathy of n grateful people to cheer
him, and their fervent prayers that a
kind Providence may soon restore him to
his wonted vigor and usefulness.

ToUcHINGLY BEAUTIFUL.-Honor the
dear old mother. Time has scattered
the snowy flakes on her brow, plowed
deep burrows on her cheeks, but is she
not sweet and beautiful now? The lips
are thin and shrunken, but those are the
lips which have kissed many Il hot tear
from the childish cheek, and they are the
sweetest lips in all the world. The eye
is dim, yet it glows with the soft radiance
of holy love which can never fade. All,
yes, she is dear old mother. The sands
of life are nearly run out, but feeble as
she is, she will go further and reach
down lower for you. boy, than any other
upon earth. You cannot walk into a
midnight where she cannot see YOU; you
can't enter prison whose lars will keep
her out, can never mount scatfold too
high for her to reach that she may kiss
and bless you in evidence Of her death
less love. When the world shall despise
and forsakc you, when it leaves you by
the wayside to die unnoticcd, the dear
old mother will gather you in her feeble
arms and carry you home, and tell you
of all your virtues until you almost for
get that your soul is disigurcd by vices.
Love her tenderly and cheer ber declin-
ing years with holy devotion.
