AN ODD FREAK OF NATURE. AT the
Cape of Good Hope, near Table Mountain
the clouds come down very low now ant

time, if II traveller should SO under n tret

would find himself in drenching shower
while out in the open air away from any
tree or shrub, everything would be as dry

The clouds or mist is rather warmer
than the leaves, you see, and so, when it
touches them. it changes Into clinging
drops, which look like dew Fresh drops
keep forming; they run together; and, II
length, the water drips off the leaves like
rain. And this process goes on until thu
the clouds lift and The sun comes GU

Mrs. Josiah Williams:

Twenty years have passed since you were wed
Aud, on, now quick the time has fled;
Since time once passed eau meier return
Now let the fires of memory burn.
Memory, that potent word,
BY which the mortal mind is stirred,
which makes the good forever blest,
Which gives the wicked such unrest:
1t comes to us on this glad time.
Ana helps TO form thoughts in rhyme;
II speaks OF blessings rich and rare,
In which we all have had a share.
1t tells of pleasures on the way,
That added sunshine to the day;
II knows OF warfare for the rIEht
That helped to break the gloom of night.
1t speaks of friendship tried like gold
" love that never eau grow cold;
BY Ia. II II journeys on afar,
where love aud goodness ever are.
1t sees the husbands manly form
rock shelter rom the storm;
II finds the faithful, trusted wife
The Eureka OF the husbands life
IL sees two lives of vernal green,
WITH Il 'wers scattered in between,
The highest joy that earth eau know
Or give to mo:tals mere below.
Now as our friends again renew
Their pllRnted VOWS with lite to last,
May hopes OF good in future be
More bright than mem Jrles of the past

Later on toward evening the bride and

both instrumental and vocal, when PRAYER
was offered by Rev. S. Lampson, after
which more music was furnished. Tn,
following poem by II. A. F.. Richardson
was then read:
Twenty years ago to-day
To one it brought husband,
To the other it brought a wife
Two decades have come and gone
How Quickly tneY have flown;
Sous and daughters have been born,
Some " manhood have grown.
Those years to you as they've come and gone
Have not all been like a summers day;
Yet, amid their clouds aud dsappoiutments
Have been scattered tue flowers of May.
Children one by one were given,
49, Until in all their number seven;
lis true that two again have gone,
But who shall say they not in Heaven.
Weep not then for those whoye gone,
They've only gone before;
For when on earth your du US done,
You'll meet them on the other shore,
We bid you. then, rejoice and be glad
Drive sorrow aud care away;
It's no time to be siYhins or sad
On this glad anniversary day.
Far beyond the river in the golden Streets
where the weary lay their burdens DOWN
May 1t be yours, eternal aud sweet,
Torecelve aud to wear the cunqueror's crown

''De Furder Away de Better"

AS Uncle Pete was ambling along the
street a few days after the election, a
Democratic politician accosted him and
began to talk of the subject uppermost in
the Democratic mind-the defeat of the
Democracy.
"Uncle," said he, "why didn't you vote
with your friends, the friends of all poor
men-the Democratic party?"
rs de party dat makes merchandise NV
a man bekase his skins black, de friend
Nv de black man? Is de party dat at
tempts to ruin de business of de country
de friend Nv de poor man?" asked the old
man, with flashing eyes.
'But," said the Democrat, 1--WE are per-
sonally your friends, and you ought to
have voted with us, especially on the
county ticketp'
"Oh, yes" said the old man, personal
friens now, but has ye forgot de time ye
frowed brick at me, bekase 1 had on
clean shirt collar?"
"Oh Uncle, that was years ago-that
time is passed"
eyes, dat time is passed. I've been
votin' de Republican ticket, and gittin'
furder and furder from de customs of
dem times. I don't want to take back

Are the good wome II of Jackson, who
have the matter in charge, going to take
any steps toward opening a reading room
We understand they have several hun
dred dollars in bank, but not enough to
commence operations. Let us make a
suggestion. Appoint three committees.
Let one committee raise additional funds.
Another committee could secure a srlita-
BILE room. The other committee could
solicit the loan of suitable books. We
think a large number Of good books
would be loaned, if put under the care of
careful, responsible librarian.
We make these suggestions for the con-
sideration of those having the matter in
charge. If a better plan can be adopted,
let it be tried. That something should
be done for the young men of our town,
all will admit. While there are bad and
vicious boys and young men in Jackson,
yet we think no town of the same size in
the State has more young men who at
tend Sabbath School, who are members of
church, than has Jackson. Let these
boys and young men have something to
keep them from temptation, and the fu-
tura harvest will be great; but let them
drift into places OF vice and debauchery
AMI trouble will surely come of it in fll-
tura years.
