Does she? What Of it? Is it any
disgrace? Is she any less true wo-
man, less worthy Of respect, than she
who sits in silks aud salins, and is
vain of fingers that never labor? We
listened to this sneer a few days ago,
and the tone in which it was uttered
betokened a narrow, ignoble mind,
better fitted for any place than codu-
try whose institutions rest on honora-
bic labor as one IF the chief corner
stones. 1t evinced false idea Of the
true basis Of society, of true woman
hood, Of genuine nobility. 1t showed
the detestable spirit Of caste, of rank,
which certain class are trying to cs-
tabish-a caste whose sole iounda-
ton is money, and the meanest kind
OF rank known to civilization. Mind,
manners, morals, all that enters into
a good character, are of no account
with these social snobs; position in
their stilted ranks is bought with
gold, and each additional dollar is an
other round in the ladder by which el-
ovation is gained-[ Elk.

A Scene not In the Programme.
From the Leadyille Chronicle.

a correspondent tells good story
on Joe Proctor. the actor, who has
spent the greater part Of the summer
in this city and vicinity:
During the recent uprising Of the
Utes Mr.. Proctor and party Of friends
were camping out in the mountains;
and that be might roam at his leisure
through the tangled wildness of fallen
trees and underbrush, Mr.. Proctor, at
the suggestion Of one Of the party,
had taken with him his Jibbonainosay
dress instead of the customary eft
out" of miners russet called "iron
clads.n
One evening, later than usual, he
had returned from his prolonged wan
Iderings, and the campers, not having
heard of the Indian outbreak, had re-
tired to their couches Of pine boughs,
and only their watch dogs and two
packing donkeys were doing with
their eyes half closed.
Mick Of the Woods however, had
his glaring eyes wide open, and seat
ing himself at some distance from The
cabin became wrapped in profound
meditation, gazing at the stars and
rejecting upon the past and future
A sharp cracking Of dry limbs aroused
him from his reverie, and thinking
that some Of his companions had come
to disturb his solitude, he sprung sud
denly upon the stump behind which
he was resting, and shouted, in the
language of the Utes, Beware the
ambush! Beware the Jibbonainosayw
Standing there with his big knife up
raised, and the bright moon, like cal
cium light, describing every outline of
his weird and gigantic form, he looked
the very incarnation Of the forest fend
that has filled the Shawnee tribe with
terror, and from whom
tradition had given to all the other
tribes the story OF his fatal touch and
sanguinary knife. For moment the
providers (for they were the Utes
themselves, creeping upon the cabin
to destroy it) were paralyzed with
fear at the sudden appearance of the
majestic phantom

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE

/ <A-S ~ ~ h1I<A f9fA - ~ ~
One knows not Of a more terrible
situation for a man to be in than Il.
be awoke by venomous snake fall
ing upon him. An English officer in
India tells Of his experience in this
sort of terror:
1t was the worst season of the year
for venomous creatures when Tom
Norris and myself were occupying a
small bungalow at ,Jubbulpore.
We slept in the same room, each Of
us having lounge, ard it was about
two O'Clock in the morning, and pitch
dark, when was awakened by some
thing striking me on the back and
falling, as the sound seemed to indi-
cate, in coil upon the floor
Whats that?n exclaimed my friend,
who awoke at the same instant, and |
made no reply, for ] lad the strongest
possible dislike to say what believed
it was.
whats that?D lie askedagain; and
then answered, Il think its snake,
and he has bitten me; viii you get up
and go for light"
Tom Norris lay still for while,
then he said: "Now, look here, old
fellow, if cobra has bitten you, he
won't do you the least additional harm
if he bites you again; hut what is The
use of my being bitten too? Hadn't
you better get up and so for the light
yourself?"
Could any logic 'lave been more
reasonable? | at once got up, and al.
ter some trouble procured light, and
we began our search for the snake,
But first Tom Norris examined the
place where | had been bitten, and
his face grew very grave, for there
were the two pnnctures, AMI it seemed
clear that snake had injured me
We hunted about the house for ten
minutcs, and although felt myself
growing drowsy ! began to hope that
it was not cobra, but some less ven
omous reptile that had bitten me-
At last the mystery was solved. AS
we entered the bathroom, wild cat,
that for some incomprehensible reason
had taken refuge in the bungalow,
went flying, half mad with fright, out
Of the window, carrying half dozen
panes of glass with her in her exist.
In her confusion she had evidently
jumped upon the bed, and her claws
had evidently penetrated my back,
making two little holes precisely like
the bite Of a cobra
To say that l was relieved would
give you very poor idea Of my seuti
ments as the cat sprang through the
window. All my drowsiness van.
ished, and slept no more that night.

Is Memphis Doomed?

MEMPHIS, February 27.--The yellow
fcver, or somo other pestilcnco or plague,
will as surely visit this city during the
coming summer as tho lapse of timo brings
the season and temperature suitable for tho
development Of the germs of fatal sickness.
Momphis is unqucstiouably tho nasticst,
dirticst and filthicst city in tho United
States, if not in the world; it ought to bo
indicted as national nuisance. There is
no puro water for drinking or culinary
purposes to be had within tho limits of the
corporation. There arc some wells and
pumps in tho suburbs, but they are gone
rally so poorly constructed TINT the sccp
water from the bayous and cess pools runs
into them aud poisons every drop they oon.
tain. Wolf River, from whonco the city
water works draw their supply, is, in tho
estimation of many, simply largo sewer
for tho surrounding country, and is just
rocking with scep poison and filth. In tho
central part of tho city there arc many
cisterns, tho covers of which arc generally

Whiteside Mountain.

This mountain is in Macon County, N. G.,
ivo miles Northeast of Highlands. Tho
summit of Whitcsido is 5000 feet high.
Its peculiar location enables one to gain
from it the most striking prospect in North
Carolina. 1t oycrlooks country of peaks
and projections, of frighttul prccipioes,
often of naked rock, but generally fringcd
with dccntc foliage; country dotted with
fertile olearings, set down in the midst Of
forests; of valleys, inaccessible save by
narrow passes; of curious caves and tangled
trails; of buttes and knobs, reached only by
dangerous passes, where ono finds tho bluffs
base thousands of feet down in somo nook,
and, as ho looks up, sees tho wall tottering
far above him. The "Dovi's Court House,
is grand, rocky bluff, with its foot planted
among the thickcts, and its brow crowned

Put Down tho Brakes.

No matter how we'll the track is laid,
No matter how strong tho engine is made,
When you lind it is running down the grade,
Put down tho brakes.
If tho demon Of drink has entered tho soul,
Aud his power is getting beyond control,
Aud dragging you OH to a terrific goal,
Put down tho brakes!
Remember tho adago, "Dou't trino with
fire."
Temptation, you know, is always liar,
If you want to crush out tho burning desire,
Put down tho brakesl
Are you running in debt by living too fas.?
Do you look back with shame on a proiitlcss
Aud feel that your ruin is coming at lost2
Put down tho brakes!
Whether for knowledge, or for honor and
gain,
You're fast wearing out your body and brain
Till nature M longer can bear the strain,
Put down the brakes!
Tho human is weak; since Adams fall
Beware how yon yield to appctitc's call.
"Bc temperate in all things" was practiccd
by Paul:
Put down tho brakes!
Ah, a terrible thing is human lifc
It's track with many II danger is life,
DO you seek for victor's crown in the strife!
Put down the brakcs
