scandal that was sure to follow such proceed

"Oh, don't, mother" and Matte looked thu
picture of despair.

er, melted into tenderness by the look
Thea Matte, through her tears, told hei
mother all, and ended her story with these pitt
| full words:
But oh, mother, | do love him, the father
of my child love him, but he does not un
Idcrstand me. II he could understand me!
and she fell sobbing beside her mothers knee
Let me advise you, my child" SAID The
mother, softly stroking her daughters glossy
halr. "Ivc passed through it ALL and III tell
you a secret There Is almost certain TO bt
mistakes come up between husband and wife
and often words are spoken that are regretted
a moment aiterward. But, my child, such a
word can do no harm, if repented Of and a

only forgive you, but will beg you to forgive

| lightful than the hour of your wedding. Let
me tell you, Matte, of a little instance in my
own life"
And her mother told of one of those little
family differences that come up between 80
many worthy couples. The story ended so
pleasantly that il soothed the tempest in the
breast of the heartsick daughter.
| After the story was done, Matte still kneel-
ed, resting her tired head on her mother S
knee. Her mother stroked her glossy HAIR IN
silence for quarter OF an hour, but Matte 8
thoughts were busy. Suddenly she arose, took
her child INTO her arms and wrapped II close
IN her shawl, she prepared to go.
"Wherc are you gong, my chlld?" asked
her mother.
"To make my confession" answered Matte,
through her tears.
, Heaven bless you" said her mother.
When Marsh Hunt came home that night, a
pretty scene met his view. The fire was burn
ing brightly on the hearth, and before it stood
Matte dressed IN IA neat calico wrapper, with
snowy collar and cuffs, and scarlet bow of
ribbon at her throat. Baby sat on his pallet
before the fire, Growing Justify, and beating the
floor with a TIN rattle.
Supper was on the table, and the tea was
steamlng on the hearth Marsh was cold, but
such scene warmed him. He went straight
to the pallet and commenced a rOmp with the
baby Matte went and knelt there, too, de-
termined to make her confession; but she did
not know how to commence. 1t was very easy
to think of beforehand, but when the time
came she was lost. There was an awkward
pause, then both spoke at once:
Matte, I've been"
Marsh. Pm sorry"
Their eyes met, and each saw the unuttcr-
able tenderness in those OF the other; all was
now told in an instant. Both made their con.
trsslOn.
Marsh opened his arms and Matte fell sob
bng on his breast, while baby looked on in
amazemcnt. From that hour they were the
happiest of couples

And next on the list is John Adams name.
Tom. Jefferson then filed the honored place;
The name of James Madison next we trace.
The fifth in succession was James Monroe,
And John Quincy Adams the next below;
Then Andrew Jackson was placed in the chair,
And next we find Martin Van Buren, there.
Then William II. Harrisons name we meet
Whose death gave John Tyler the coveted seat.
Then James X. Polk was the nations choice,
Next for Zachcry Taylor she gave her voice,
Whose premature death brought in Willard I'll

And next Franklin Pierce the distinction wore
The fifteenth was James Buchanan, they say,
Who for Abraham Lincoln prepared the way,
Whose martyrdom gave Andrew Johnson
chance.
Tie eighteenth name was Ulysses $. Grants;
By means of various aud .undry ways
The nineteenth now is X. B. Hayes,
Though Tilden undoubtedly won the boat,
BY eight to seven he was counted out;
And the people only on peace intent,
Put up with the fraud and were content
But in eighteen eighty The masses rose
And put TO light their fraudulent foes
And, General Hancock winning the race,
The choice Of the nation will ill the place.
Then peace and prosperity, so long Denied

Forney's Progress.


Forney's Progress,
A hundred guns-yes, fifty more
Ralned down their shot and shell
As il, from out its yawning door,
Drove the red blast OF hell.
The hiss the crash! the shrek. the groan.
The ceaseless iron hail!
All this for half the day. own
IL made the stoutcst quail,
But sudden, far to left, We heard
The band strike up: and lo
Full in our front-no breath was stirred
Came Hancock, riding slow.
As slow as If on dress parade,
All down the line TO right
And back again. BY my good blade,
Was ever such sight?
We lay at length. No ranks could stand
Against that tempest wild;
Yet on he rode with hat in hand,
And looked and bowed and smiled
Whatever fears we had before
Were gone That sight, you know,
just made us fifty thousand more,
All hot TO face the foe.
You've heard the rest. How on they came;
Earth shaking at their tread;
A cheer; our ranks burst into flame;
Steel crossed; the foe had fed
Yet still that dauntless form see,
Slow riding down the line.
Was ever deed of chiyalry
So grand, o, comrade mine!

Gov. VIM. f. Smith writes:
"But my thoughts have been filled all day
with Ashland, the beauties and glorles of this

mellow lights and shades of Italy. We have
been permitted to visit the neighborlng vii

on Madeline Island. La Pointe was settled
more than 200 years ago by the Jesuits, and
Mr.. Fiaeld who has made a study of then
history, gave us a very interesting lecture on
the traditions and history CT this place. The

Allouez, who built church on tins island Of

adopted the following resolutions:
"Whereas, the past history of Gar

consequence was severe headache,

and highly cultivated voices. We
are therefore daily treated with music

bic little impromptu entertainment
was gotten up on Thursday night.
The programme consisted of reading,
recitatiOns and vocal and instrument

appeared to advantage. A number
of Nashville's favorite amateurs took
part, and of course the affair was q
rousing success. One or two songs
would have done credit to star singers.

A little sensation was created Thurs

found coiled upon the floor, seeming

becoming a permanent lodger. But
the avenger was nigh, and the serpent
soon realized that the curse was still
upon him, for his head was bruised
