The DAILY CHRONICLE. and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE.
will be kept up during the year
1879 to their usual high standard.
BY enterprise, accurateness, and
close attention to the wants of our
readers, we hope to merit contin-
uation of the liberal patronage
heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not Republican daily in
the State, and only two or three in
the South, We commenced the pub
LEGATION of the CHRONICLE. In all
these years we have battled for Re-
publican principles, and see no
reason to change our course now.
Hence we shall continue to publish
truthful, reliable Republican
journal, not the organ of any man
or clique, but the outspoken and
fearless advocate of principles,
measures and men, best calculated
to promote the welfare of the
country and the Republican party.
We will endeavor to make our
agricultural columns worth more to
farmers than our subscription price.
As newspaper our publications
shall not be excelled in the State.
In addition to our telegraphic dis
patches from all parts of the world,
our readers shall have the benefit of
correspondence and every other
means through which reliable infor-
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
contain selections made with special
reference to the home circle. We
will continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
publish paper that may be taken
without question within the sacred
precints of the family circle.
| Our market reports shall have
close attention, and be made entire
ly correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter-
ested in the publication of our in
dependent, fearless, reliable Repub
lican journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
of the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WIG AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
upon the country and the general
reduction of values, We have decided
to reduce the price of the WEEKLY
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
times. In the future we will send
our weekly paper to subscribers on
the following.

There are certain disagreeable people in
this world who seem TO take a special de-
light in annoying others by reminding
them of things they would willingly for

torturing their fellow-men for the sake of
torture.
Has man met with misfortune in his
business, they are forever recalling the
fact. Has a man in times that are gone,
wandered into devious paths, they are for

one such scourge in petticoats who got
her just deserts the other evening.
1t was at little party, where some score
of people were gathered together. The
Thorn sat near young man who, in
days gone by, had been guilty of follies
that cost him dearly. He had put them
all behind him. But the Thorn took oc-
casion to recall them, in subdued and
confidential tone. The victim, who had
been subjected to the same torture before,
spoke up so that all could hear. "Madam,"
he said, "for five years have been trying
to forget all that. You have been trying
to remember it. You have succeeded

The Attractions Of Maids of Thirty.
New York Home Jo,lrnal,)

Indeed, as one looks over the marital
market, it is impossible not to feel more
respect for single women, as class, than
for those who have married to consolidate
families and fortunes, or because wedlock
is the open gate to social independence, or
simply because they feared to be classed
among the most inattractive OF their sex
as the years lessened their bloom.
Perhaps it is because of this mental tran
guilty that the elderly girl of to-day is so
much more charming than the old maid
of the last century, or even Of the last
generation; whatever may be the cause of
her present winsomeness, the consequen-
ces are that her opportunities of marrying
after she is thirty are increased tentod
beyond what they were among women OF
the same age twenty years ago. If any
one doubts this statement even hasty
glance over the marital records where the
ages of brides are inscribed will prove its
truth beyond argument.
There is not at this moment in America
a more charming class of women than the
elderly unwedded, those single and indie
pendent matrons who possess the exquisite
taste and leisure to become intellectual.
Their sympathies are not narrowed, TO-
cused and absorbed, and they can afford
to be broad and generous in their friend
ships; their lives are passed beyond the
touch of those infnitesimal and wrinkling
cares which, though sweetest and most
important OF all to the married woman
herself, really narrow while they intensity
concentrate and deepen her sympathies
and interests. Important and never end
ing anxieties are inseperable from domes-
tic life, and the carrying Of this precious,
though wearing and wearying, burden, is
the price which she gladly pays for the
attainment of woman's highest and, as
was said before, her happiest attainments.

possible, there must be hill for the chill.
dren to side down in winter.
The path from the gate to the house
must be winding and romantic. The path
from the back door to the barn needn't be
romantic, but should be in good repair.
The grounds must not be too shady. too

Long Courtship.

A couple. after courtship Of over ff-
teen years were recently married in Ken
tucky. The wedding was to have occurred
in 1861, when the war broke out, but the
conflict which dragged all classes of peo-
pie into its whirlpool, claimed this lover
as we'll. He took one side, her father took
the other. The old man never forgave
him. He swore that as long as he lived
his daughter should never marry a rebel.
He kept his word. One by one his three
sons passed over the river and out of sight.
His wife broken hearted, followed her boys
to the grave, and finally none of the once
happy household was left but the patient
girl and her stern old parent. The war
gave back her lover uninjured, but the i'm
placable father stood between. He refused
his consent to the marriage, and she
would not wed without it. And so the
many years rolled away-an obstinate old
man-two loyal lovers. A year ago he
died, and this long delayed marriage was
Just consumated.

Take TO the Long Boat


Once on a time when Whitefeld preach.
ed in New York TO the sailors he closed
with the following bold apostrophe:
"well my boys, we have clear sky, and
are making fine headway over smooth
sea, before a light breeze, and we shall
soon lose sight of land. But what means
the lowering of the heavens, and that dark
cloud arising from beneath the western
horizon? Hark! don't you hear the dis
tant thunder' Don't you see those flashes
of lightning? Every man to his duty?
How the waves rise and dash against the
ship! The air is dark The tempest
RACES! Our masts are gone! The ship is
on her beam-ends What next? The
listening tars, reminded of the former
perils Of the deep, arose and with united
voices exclaimed: "Take to the long
boat"

Gin. Saturday Night:
If we were called upon to pick out a
class of men who seem to typiiy the Pc
culiar characteristics of the country, its
alertness, ingenuity, energy, humor and
adaptiveness, we should select the COM
mercial travellers.
These men you find everywhere. You
run across them in hotels, on railroads, IN
country hacks, find them afoot in the
mountains or jogging over the plains, and
usually you find them full of resources,
spirit, sanguine IDEAS and undaunted en-
ergy. They are good companions, as they
abound in anecdotes and "reminiscences,
and you will hardly fail to note their keen
perception of character. They are com
monlv persons of very quick intelligence
and usually of sterling integrity Those
of them who represent large houses are
fully informed as to the interests they
represent, and their judgment in regard
to those interests is singularly accurate.
While the commercial traveller is not
strict moralist, he is apt to be kindly dis
posed and charitable. He really bears
the test of scrutiny as well as any other
man engaged in active business, and ex-
posed to greater variety of temptations
than most men.

man, who has invented the Metalograph,
and he still is allowed to live. The
Metalograph is not an electrical machine,
but it will do work that the electric pen
can not begin to do. The Metalograph is
worked by compressed air. The result
of the invention is that a metallic plate
is punctured with the desired message
and can then be reproduced at will. No
liquid, ink, acid or electricity is used.
The instrument can be used in signing
checks or other important documents, as
it will be impossible to alter or erase sig
natures made by it.

OF No Use.
(St. Albans Advcrtiser.)

When the rage for building new rail-
roads was at its height, four or five years
ago, meeting of citizens was held in aid
of the Pigwacket Valley Railroad in a
City, whence the line was to run up into
the wilderness till it lost itself After some
glowing speeches in favor Of the project,
an ilIterate old fellow, who was, however,
the heaviest taxpayer in the place, ad-
dressed the meeting. "Mr Chairman"
said he, "what want to know is, what in
ARE we going to do for freight? We've
got nothing to carry up the road but sea
sand and cunne ;, and they've got nothin'
to send down ,ut blueberries." His re-
marks threw GOODNESS over the meeting,
for everybody recognized their truth, and
the Pigwaket Valley Railroad was never
organized. q,
