LOVES COMPENSATION.

He earne 10 the bower of her love,
Twanging his sweet guitar,
He called her in his song his snow white deye,
His lily. his fair, bright star.
He sang that his love was beyond compsIe--
His voice was sweet as his song
He said she was pure and gentle and far,
And thought that he wasn't far wrong.
Why he sang and played till the moon was high
and sweet was the love-born strain;
Til the night caught up each tremuious sigh
And echoed each sweet refrain,
lie told now he loved her. 0 er and DER
With passion in every word,
In songs that ] never heard before,
And sweeter ones never were heard.

When he sang what wanted TO say.

Louisiana capitolian., 1881-08-06

The number of young men who 60
about with their arms in a sling has
been noticed by all, and good deal
of interest is attached to the different
excuses they give for their lameness.
The fact of it is that the new nitro
glycerine belt, which is sold by a firm
here to mothers for their daughter, is
the cause. There is small cartridge
in the belt, to explode at certain
temperature. 1t is perfectly safe if
let alone, but if a warm hand isplaced
on the belt, or an arm, it begins to
warm up, and finally it explodes. The
girl thinks it is some game the wretch
is playing on her, and he thinks she
is loaded, and they separate, one 60
ing one way, and they never speak to
each other again. The explosion gives
the girl the back ache, and the fell
lows arm is hurt, and the mother,
whose object is to break up the match,
is the only one who has any fun.
When you see young man with his
arm in a sling, or his hand done upin
cloth, or girl with a porous plaster
on her back, you can make up your
mind that the old lady has been set
ting her spring.-Peck's Sun.

| Did you ever look upon a beauti-
full faee which told you almost as
plainly as words that mental anguish
had but added to its beauty? l con-
templated such a countenance in the
parlor Of the Shelburne o-night. Its
owner was lady rather Inclined to
be tall, but with symmetrical form,
! which looked all the more attractive
for the extremely plain costume,
black in color, and almost severe in
it's lack of trimming or other orna-
ment.
Her blonde hair, dressed in the
prevailing fashion-an English frizze
covered the forehead to within an
inch or so of the dark blue eyes, and
two flushed cheeks, mouth full of
pearIy teeth, lips like a ripe cherry,
and a short, round chin, completed
the picture. But there was some
thing in the face apart from it's natur-
al gifts which was calculated at once
to rivet the attention of the observer
1t was an expression of indescribable
melancholy and pain, and if the iron
hand entered the soul of it's owner
and left there, not hate or vindictive-
ness, but sorrow and anguish--a look
so plaintive, so appealing, that one
might match it to melt the hardest
heart.
"Who is she n ] heard the ques-
ton asked twenty times inside of an

THAT PROTEST,

BATON ROUGE, July 20, 1851.
Mt. EDIToR.-In yesterdays Ad-
vocate we find a protest against the
proposed Sunday excursion, from
Citizen" Now, sir, in behalf of the
vast majority of our citizens, we pro-
test against this inquisitional way of
endeavoring to force others to be-
lieve as you do-for there are many
strict observers of the Sunday law,
who see no harm in innocent recrea-
ton.
How much better if those who see
50 much to deplore in these Sunday
recreations, would, by converting
their fellow-men, bring them to be-
lieve as they do.
All this has a tendency to cause
what ] can call by no better term
than Sunday religion" That is,
keep Secluded; no laugh, no smile,
no recreation, or if you do let it not
be public, but forthe balance Of the
week T?
Verify, if our divine Savior were
upon earth and healed the intirm as of
old upon the Sabbath day, would not
some find fault and seek to slay him
because he had done these things on
the Sabbath day. tJohn v-l6.)
Now, "Citizen" speaks Of Gods
command to keep holy the Sabbath
day." and so throughout the Bible
We find the seventh day mentioned as
a day of rest. We find in our day
the observance Of Sunday, the first
day, universal. Now, the same au-
thority that caused this change of
days has also the power to dictate
how to observe the Sunday.
Now then, to 'Citizen' | will say |
am tolerant, respecting his belief, nor |
seeking to force him to accept mine.
In return I have a right to the same
tolerance from him.
Meantime, the excursion is coming
and our people will turn out en- maSse
to receive them, and as Christians can
we, dare we! doubt that God will be
pleased to see these over-worked cit
liens of crowded city taking days
recreation
Now, then, in conclusion, let us
ever bear in mind the reply of our
Divine Savior to his disciples in an
swer to their query, master which
is the great commandment in the
law ~
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, with all thy soul
and with all thy mind And the
the second, "Thou shalt love thy
nelghbor as thyself." On these two
commandments hang all the law.

in agony.

Still the same form might have been

An amusing incident in the life of
the late Judge Hiram Warner, of
Georgia, is related by a Marietta, Ca,
paper. 1t was in the early settlement
of Marietta, when log cabin in the
middle Of the square answered for a
courthouse, and no Jail had ever been
built. During session of the court,
noisy, rude fellow kept disturbing
the court, when Judge Warner order
ed the Sheriff to arrest him and put
him i'll Jail. The Sheriff answered:
1--WE have no Jail" The Judge re-
piled: Take him out to the fence and
put his neck between two rails for
three hours" The Sheriff did as or
dered, put the prisoner between two
fence-rails, and then got up and sat
on the fence. After some time the
Judge inquired for the Sheriff He
was told that he was out guarding the
prisoner. Judge smiled, but never
interfered, and the prisoner for
three long hours remained yoked by
fence rails.

All is dazzle and glimmer in the

wishes, and had bestowed her hand
upon John Gubbins, a prosperous
dealer in butter, eggs and cheese.
The fairest of San Francisco's fair

The most renowned eaters of the up-

No man with any respect for his
stomach euer eats the under crust.
Suddenly a knock washeard. Why
did a chill pervade that brilliant
gatherings Who can tell? Perhaps
it was because they had just tackled
the ice cream.
A stalwart form pushed it's way
through the throng. 1t reached the
room where stood the newly welded
couple. An arm of iron gripped the
bride around the waist; with the
other way was made through the
guests. AS she felt herself borne
