LIES WAY.
BY MADGE NORRIS.

"Good-ye sweetheart said, and casped her hand,
And rained his kisses her tear-wet face;
Then broke away, and i'm a foreign land,
For her dear sake sought gold, that he might place
Loves ieyyeled crown upon his queens fair brow,
And pour his hard-von treasures at her feet,
And swore, than Heaven, than life itself, his VOW
To her he held sacred and more sweet
She waited as the woman only may
Whose eyes are blinded oft with unshed tears;
Lines on her forehead grew, and threads OF gray;
The weary days crept into weary years.
so stars go down! o sum- be shrouded now!
Nv love comes not he does not live" she said,
And brushed the curls he'd kissed back from her brow
And put on mourning FOR her dead.
And still. as oft the day came round that he
Had left his warm goodbye upon her lips,
As oft she sought the head-and 10y the sea,
And longing watched the far-of whte-sailed ships.
To-day, the low sand beach over-Strewn
Torn sail and broken spar, and human form,
Gufed 10y the waves and crushed, and then ouhrown-
A ship went down in yesternights wild storm.
She walked among the debris and the dead,
AS sweet mercy-sister on her round,
Scanning each up-turned face with nameless dread,
For aught OF life. Her tireless searching found
A babe-a waif OF tawny, tangled locks,
And great blue eyes with wonder brimming o'er;
OF all the human freight wrecked on the rocks,
The only living thing that washed ashore.
A pearI-gemmed golden case upon its breast
She oped then stared, her eyes a sudden wild
A name, a pictured face, told all the rest
His name! his facet his child

AVAILABLE CORSET STORY.-A man always
gets into a scrape when he pOkes around among
his wife's things without permission. Mr.. Dur
rie, of Jersey City, had been annoyed by having
his wife sell his old clothes to pedders, and
thought one day, when peddler called i'm her alb
sence that he would reciprocate; so he traded
lot of her old garments off for tin ware and plaster
images, and among other things a pair Of half
worn corsets. He rubbed his hands i'm silent en-
joyment over the joke. But when his wife re-
turned and was informed of the transaction, she
rushed up stairs to see what was gone and not
finding the corsets exclaimed: "John Henry
you didn't sell them corsets ~ "Oh, yes" he
replied; 81 found disreputablc old pair and let
them 60" The wife burst into tears, and between
sobs explained that, in order to hide from burg
lars the Sl00 he had trusted to her for safe keep
ing, she had sewed the money up i'm those corsets.
John Henry is an humber man than he was and
can't find the rag peddler.-ChjcdgO Inter ocean.

ATLANTA, Ga, MAY Ex-senator John e..
Gordon assigns rs the principal reasons Tor
resignIpo WEAKNESS of public life, after
twenty wears OF service, and n desire 10

don saws further that he is simply carrying
out a lOng-cherished desire. Since Aprii,
1861, bis life has been one OF incessant anX-
lely and great labor. For more than one bali
OF that period bis energies have been devoted
to what he conceived TO be the welfare OF the
southern people and the best interests OF the
whole country, and now that the restoration
Of Louisiana and South Carolina to the
right OF self-government secures to the ell
tire South her full and rigbtful representa-
ton, his most cherished object has been at

PROTEST AGAINST THE NEW APPOINTMENT.
COLUMBUS. GA. May 20.-At a large meet
ing Of representative men in olumbus MS
| afternoon resolutions were passed regret
ting the resignation OF General Gordon,
and stating that the action OF Governor
| Colquitt in appointing Ex-Governor j. l..
Brown as senator from Georgia is desery.
inc OF censure so strong that words can
not express ii; that Brown is not a
| representative OF Georgia, nor OF the
Democratic party, aud tie shameful and
| disgraceful manner in which he has been
foisted upon the people is condemned.
.'BrOwD," the resolutions say, is a man
who BETRAYED the State in her hour OF trial,
and committed acts and instigated measures
which. had they prevailed, would have 10
| carcerated many Of her best citizens and
brought into power a party iniinical to the
best interests OF the State"
G~koRGIA's RETIRING SENATOR
WASHINGTON, May 90 Senator Gordon
| was in his seat in the Senate to-day us usual,
and will continue TO occupy it until his
newlv-appointed successor shall arrive

Monday.
He received night before last the follow
ING telegram from Governor Colquitt:
"On behalf OF the people OF Georgia l
beg that YOU recall our resignation. III
YOU cannot do so Internationally, With
| hold at least until the meeting OF the Gene
raj Assembly" $50,
To this Senator Gordon repliedthat while
he was anxious TO oblige the Governor ne
could not consistently delay his resignation,
as private interests demanded his personal
attention Immediately.
The Senator has recently received ana mas
now under consideration several very al
v%antageous business offers, but Will not de-
eide which OF them he will accept until he
reaches his home.
General Gordon enjoys great personal
popularity, and is highly respected oy sena,

occasion to express to him their personal
regret at his impending retirement from the
Senate.
