ANTICIPATING EVIL.

Enjoy the present. whatsoever it may
be, and be not sllcitous for the future;
for if you take your foot from the pres
ent standing, and thrust it forward
towards to-morroW's event, you are in a
restless condition. 1t is like refusing to
quench your present thirst by fearing
you thall want drink the next day. If
it be we'll to-day it is madness to make
the present miserable by fearing it will
be i'll tc-morrow-when your belly is
full of to-day's dinner to fear that you
shall want the next days supper; for
it may be you shall not, and then to
what purpose was this days afliction?
But if tomorrow you shall want, your
sorrow will come time enough, though
you do not hasten it; let your trouble
tarry till its day comes. But if it
chance to be i'll to-day, do not increase
it by the cares of tomorrow. Enjoy
the blessings of this day, if God send
them, and the evils of it bear patiently
and sweetly; for this day is only ours
we are dead to yesterday, and We are
not yet born to the morrow. He, there
fore, that enjoys the present if it be
good, enjoys as much as is possible:
and if only that days trouble leans
upon him, it is singular and finite.
Sufficient to the day (said Christi is
the evil thereof; )" sufficient but not in
tolerable. But if we look abroad. bring
into ole days thought the evil of many,
certain and uncertain, what will be and
what will never be, our load will be as
intolerable as it is unreasonable.-Jer-
eng Taylor.

FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH.-A day or
SO ago the engineer of train near Mon
treal saw large dog on the track, bark
ing furiously. The engineer whistled,
but the dog paid no attention to the
noise, and refused to stir. The dog was
run over and killed. The engineer OBJ
served that the animal crouched close to
the ground as he was struck by the
cowcatcher. A minute later the fire.
man saw bit of white muslin futter-
ing on the locomotive, and he stopped
the engine. On going back to where
the dog had been killed it was discover
ed that not only the dog, but little
child, had been killed. 1t was then
seen that the dog had been standing
guard over the child, and had barked
to attract the attention of the engineer.
The faithful animal had sacrificed his
life rather than desert his charge. The
child had wandered away from neigh
bering house, followed by the dog. ard
it is supposed that the child lay down
and went to sleep on the track.

CONFEDRIT x ROADS

AONt hOADS
(Wich is in the State of Kentucky,) :
Sept. 4, 1880. J
The South hez, probably, the most
forgivinest and placable people on the
face Nv the known earth.
While the South is feerfully high
strung and sensitive, its people are the
most reasonable in the world, and the
easiest fetched by a sense nv wat is
iestis. Jestis is the Southern mans best
holt.
If theirs any differences Nv opinyun
betwixt the North and the South, it is
entirely the fault Nv the North. The
North is made up Nv stubborn, onrea-
sonable people, and its course toward
the South hez bin marked by brootal-
ity that is past beleef.
All the trouble that hez ensood, from
the beginnin, hez bin commenced by the
North, continyood by the North, and, eff
it is eternal, the North hez it to aDser
for.
When the South wantid to extend
slavery over the Territories the trouble
begun. To hev stopped it then wood
hev bin an easy thing. All the North
he'd to do wuz to withdraw its apposish-
en-, and let the South alone.
When the North nominated the feend
Linkin, the South pertestid. Ef the
North he'd heedid that pertest, and let
Breckinridge hev gone in, all trouble
wood hev bin avoidid.
When the South pertestid agin the
rane NV Linkin and fired upon Fort
Sumter, the North Good hev avoided en-
raging the South by lettin Nv EN- alone.
But ez eff bent upon trouble it raised
armies and opposed the South.
Doorin the bloody and fratricidle
struggle the South wuz willin at any
time to end it, but the North wuz in the
way. It refoozed to lay down its arms,
and finally the hoomiliatid South he'd to
submit.
Even at this late day the South is
still willin to forgive, even eff it can
forget.
The way is simple. All the North
hez got to do is to repair the damages
done by its hard-heartedness stif-neck-
mis-. Let Garfield be withdrawn from
the field to-wunst, and let Hancock hey
walk over Let the South control the
Government ez it yoost to.
There can't be no troo Yoonyun so Ions

shunal lines be obliterated by mergiI

the North entirely. Ef ther amt nj

With the entire North IN yoonit,
with the entire South, there wood b.
sich harmony as wood make angel

We shood hev no more dispoots, an,

WHO OWNS THE FASTEST
TROTTER.

A reporter has interviewed Mr.. Bon
ner concerning fast horses, and that
gentleman is far from willing to admit
that the world contains feeter trotter
than one or two to be found in his stable.
There is undoubtedly much rivalry be-
tween Mr.. Vanderbilt and the proprietor
of the Ledger as to who shall have the
fastest roadster, and had Mr.. Wander
bilt's offer of $50, 1000 secured st. Julien,
that gentleman would doubtless feel
that he is the owner of pair which no
one would be able to pass on the road.
And since it is believed that Maud S.
can equal is not improve the time made
by st. Julien at Hartford, he no doubt
considers himself the owner of the fast
est roadster in the world. Mr.. Bonner
believes that the best time on record
will yet be brought down several seconds,
and he is confident that Rarus can trot
in 2:lO, and that Edwin Forrest, with a
record of 2:l5 IA to the wagon. is the
greatest wagon horse in the world.
Since lady Suffolk trotted a mile in
2:26 IL and Flora Temple in 2:l9 l-3
astonishing reductions in time have
been made, the official record of horses
that have gone below that time which
