GARDENERS ADVICE TO HIS SON.


"If l had son dat war gwine out in
de world to seek his fortun'," began the
old man at the Lime Kiln Club, as a
hush Crept down the hall, II should say
to him not to talk too much, nor yet to
be too silent. Dat class Of men who am
allus shootin' off de mouf am no worse
than de class who sot an look as wise as
owls, but have nothin' to say. De one
talks bekase he doan' know how to keep
still. De odder keeps still bekase he
doan' know noffin' to say. If dar eber
was time when man who sot an roll
ed his eyes an puckered his mouf an
kept his tongue still was taken to be
some great gun of filosofer, dat time
has skipped an and will neber return.
l neber bet on man who talks too
much, an l neber trust de man who
doan' talk at all. What l Narch fur am
de happy middle.grCund. Dat is fur
man who knows when to talk an when
to keep his head shet, aud when l find
him hitch right to him wild chain an

din to de regular programme."-Detroit

THE ORPHAN FOUND A HOME.

few days ago boy about ten years of age,
lame and sickly, who had been living with his
mother In rooms in the city, found himself alone
ia the world. The lad was too Ill to ride in one
poor carriage which followed the body to the
grave, yet no one thought bis condition serious.
After the funeral number of persons gathered
In the pOverty.stricken room, where he lay weep
ing, to see what disposition could be made of
him.
"lf he wasn't lame I'd take him into my fami
ly," observed one Of the men In a tone that seem.
ed to show that he blamed the boy for his misfor.
tune.
"Well," it's awful hard" sighed one Of the
women, but know he couldn't get along with
my children"
Nor with mine," added the second,
"If should take him he'd run up a big doc
tors bill on me" said man as he filed his pipe
Each and every one had some excuse. The boy
heard them all without word, but with culver
ing chin and eyes full of tears. Under one pre-.
text and another all slipped out and left him
alone, promising 10 have another talk in the
morning. Perhaps that night before they closed
their eyes in sleep, some Of them thought
Of the poor lad lying in the dresry room
alone and almost helpless, but If 3d. none of
them went neer him. Late in the morning a
woman living on tine same floor went ia to see II
he might not want bite to eat, and the question
Of who should take care OF him was settled. God
had taken him. Rugged close to the wall, as II
feared the midnight shadows, and with eyeasheS
yet wet, he was dead and cold, no longer bur.
den to any one, The boy too lame to be taken
care of on earth-too feeble to earn the crust
some one would have given had home better
than the best. When they knew that he died
alone women bent over him and wept. When
they lifted his wasted body from the bed mems
consclences smote them for their harsh words, but
1t was too late, He had gone from earth feeling
that there was no mercy in the human Leart.-

THE MOTHERS FIRST GRIEF,
ROBERT sMYTH CHILToN:

RObkhT bhYTH Chiffon;
She sits beside the cradle;
And her tears are streaming fast
For she sees the present only,
While she thinks Of all the past:
OF the days so full Of gladness,
When her flrst-born's answering kiss
Thrilled her soul with such rapture
That II knew no other bliss.
o those happy, happy momentsl
They but deepen her despair;
For she bends above the cradle,
And her baby is not therel
There are words of comfort spoken,
And the leaden clouds of grief
Wear the smiling bow of promise,
And she feels sad relief;
But her waverlng thoughts will wander,
TIL they settle on the scene
or the dark and silent chamber,
And Of al! that might have been,
Fora little vacant garment,
Or a shining tress of hair,
Tells her heart, In tones Of anguish,
That her baby is not there!
She sits beside the cradle,
But her tears nc longer flow,
For she sees blessed vision,
And forgets all earthly woe:
SANITY eyes look down upon her,
And the Voice that hushed the sea
Stills her spirit with the whisper,
"suffer them to come to Me-"
And while her soul is lifted
On the soaring wings Of prayer,
Heavens crystle gates swing inward
And she sees her baby there

more for 1t than they would for the lardy looking

The JUDIcIARY.-The Readjusters
have done much to tarnish the fair fame

The JUDICIARY.-The Readjusters
have done much to tarnish the fair fame
and retard material advancement and
prosperity of the Commonwealth by
developing the strength of the repudia'
ton element in the State. They have
by corrupt bargain and sale swept the
offices Of the State and outraged decency
by their cruel ingratitude to disabled
men, who had lost their limbs in up
holding the honor of Virginia. They
have sent to the United States Senate q
restless and scheming politician, in
whose busy brain was Matched all this
mischief. But the chief of all this Pan
dora's box of evils, the browning ini-
guilty is that of debauching and demon
alizing the judiciary of the State, by
dragging the judicial ermine into the
mire of politics, and holding it out as a
reward for partizan zeal. This is indeed
poisoning the fountain of justice. A
corrupt judiciary is the greatest curse
that can befall q people. All the other
offices may be held by partizans, but as
long as pure judiciary remains to ad-
minister justice, society is safe, but when
lean and hungry partizans are to take
the places now filled by upright and
learned judges whose only crime is that
they voted to sustain the plighted faith
of the State, society may well tremble
at the result and wonder where all this
mischief will end. A fearful response
bility will rest upon the heads of those
men who will displace learned and up
right judges and fill their places with
men whose only recommendation is
party service.-NozJolk Virginidn

NOMINATION OF GRANTING feal
that the Republicans will not nominate
Grant, and that they have already
learned that he could not be elected.
We had hoped, and still hope, that he
will be the nominee of that party. He
is not only less Objectionable than any
other Republican who is likely to be
nominated, but he possesses less
strength, as we believe, in the electoral
college.
With Grant as the Republican nomi-
nee, if the Democrats make wise nom
ination, the prospect of Democratic sue
cess is very good. We have not con-
Cured in the current belief that Grant il
invincible. We hope he will be the Re
publican nominee.

Hydrophobia has been proved to be a
disease, and one which is transmissible
by incubation. Some French surgeons
recently made direct experiments with
the blood and saliva of man dying of
the disease in Paris hospital. Rabbits
were inoculated with the saliva, and
after the interval of short period OF In
cubation evinced unmistakable signs of
hydrophobia, finally dying in convul-
sions. The blood, however, did not act
with the same poisonous effects.
