A GIRLS AGE.

At seventeen she thinks Of
ten Of love; delights in love
songs; fills Moore's poems with
pencil marks: thinks .RyrOn's
face beautiful ; eats little in
company. At eighteen still
thinks a great deal of love:
would care nothing Tor poverty,
providing she had a sweetheart
who adored her; indeed would
.ather be poor than rich, were
she united to the ideal whom
she has not yet met still reads
a great deal of poetry and nov-
els which deal highly with love,
and the death of the heorines; !;
passionately fond of children
At nineteen, a little more criti-
cal: finds some of the poetry
that pleased her last year a lit
tie weak looks about forstead-
ier authors than her old favor
ties; dances every dance in a
bail, and is not quite so partic-
uiar as to the men who are in
trohuced to her At twenty, is
not sure whether, after all, it
would not be best to be an old
mans darling. Nevertheless,
she tiirts more uniformly; all
her shyness is gone; and she
enjoys her food whether people
are looking at her or not. At
twcnty-onc, her belief in old
mcn is stronger; she has lost
her prejudices in favor of pov-
erty and cottages, Yet she
would not insist upon money
were her ideal to present him

her Youngest sister rather for
word in her manners, portlcu-
larly with young men; some
times suggests to mamma that

A STOLEN VISIT.

This is her dainty room,
Where youth aud beauty found their per-
feet bloom;
This is her easy chair
How oft her form has nestled softly there
Here is her cleaning glass,
BY which her graceful figure used to
pass;
And, though she is away,
1t seems her smiles are there, and still
will stay.
These are her favorite books,
The pages longing for her loving looks.
Here is her happy bed
The pillow where she nightly rests her
head.
She comes-her steps l know:
Bless thee, sweet room! Alas, that
must go!

A PLAGUE.

The parishes Of Ouachita,
Richland and Caldwell have
been visited by a plague which
threatens grave injury to the
crops from a Gnat similar to the
buffalo enat, which has visited
these parish" $ in swarms during
daytime. They do not attack
human beings, but assail horses,
mules and cattle. The New
Orleans Democrat, III referring to
tli:, visitation, remarks that the
effect on the horses and mulca
has been to give them u collie
and gravel, apparently poison
ing the entire system, causing
death in about six hours from
the time they are attacked. The
animals walk about apparently
in great agony until they drop
dead. Cattle are effected in Il
similar manner, only the effect

follows: Get five. cent cake of elder

nicely, aud then add three drops of laud-
anu,n: bottle it tight and keep in cool

some o, it get in the eyes. Follow this,
and relief is certain. If the eyes are
painf,,l or much sore, make small, soft
congresses, wet in the mixture, aud
bind over the eyes at night. If the eyes
are badly inaamed use it very
freely; ami a tea mado of elder flowers.

strong horse. He got out, took

the situation, and said:
''You stand by the horse

the vehicle, and the Detroiter

THE FASTEST BOAT,

"A good deal has been Sai(
recently relative to the speed
OF various fine and fleet steam,
ers, the friends of each particu.
lar boat claiming that she is the
fastest. Many persons think
the j. M. White is the fastest
steamboat that ever floatad on
the broad bosom of the Miss
issippi river, while others be-
lieve the Natchez faster tn an
the White, and others again be-
lleve the II. e. Lee to be faster
than either. The John W. Cam
non, t. Ough comparatively a
small steamer, has her admir-
ers, who believe that in a short
run she could lead any boat on
the river, and they refer with
pride nd satisfaction to some
of her achievements in the New
Orleans and Bayou Sara traffic.
OF the Cincinnati and New Or
leans packets the Charles Nor
gan makes some pretentions to
speed, and SO do some Of the
other boats OF the big 40" Line.

the question of speed Of the
Mississippi river steamers, and
that is for q grand sweepst;k IS
