LIFE.

When was maiden I led free life,
But of that grew tired, and now I'm q
wife
My husband wa, twenty and was fifteen
He eaid he adored mc--that | was his
queen.
In May we were married, but he quite
changed his tune
There was no more my darlings' in the
first week of June.
We've now lived together just twenty five
wears,
And during that time I've shed many
tears;
Gracious goodness What's up' There's
smile on his face,
Somcthind's happened. I'm sure-he
must have Il new case
forgot to inform you he's doctor of
laws,
And when he smiles he must have some
good cause.
Blu. am mistaken, he's preparing to
growl--
The smile on his face has changed to a
scowl
Yes, all those young men who think
they're IN love,
Never speak 10 you unless 1t is "dar-
ling" or dove
But when they are married--'tis different
then;
NV dear, do not wonder-that's the way
with all men
To which his lyric muse, after due con.
sideraton of the subject. spun forth the
following iambic quadrameter, brachYca,a-
lectic.
1.-THE above statement should be true,
That daughter, queen and darling too;
Has, IN me the tenderest sympathy,
Through this sud life to Immortality.
There are wives who sometimes their
husbands obey.
But this always occurs IN very mys-
FERROUS way,
Their object for so doing (why they're
forced to confess)
The season is now here for fashlona-
bic wives to have new dress
|, Ofcourse, fair, innocent wives are nev-
er to blame,
In their estimation mems explanations
are always lame;
But happy to say, were the plain truth
known,
The last hair pull and quarrel was the
fault of her own.

If the grabbed old bachelor who uttered
this sentiment could but witness the in
tense thought, deep study and thorough
investigation of women in determining the
best medicines to keep their families well,
and wo Id note their sagacity and wisdom
in selecting Hop Btters as the best and
demonstrating it by keeping their families
in perpetual health, at a mere nominal cx.
pense, he would be forced to acknowledge
that such sentiments are baseless and false.

The Political Situation In Vir-
giItia.

Not among the least important of
the approaching elections is that Of
Virginia, although the campaign in
that State is not attracting so much
attention us those in New York and
Pennsylvania.
The Baltimore Sun is especially
well informed upon Virginia politics,
and in review of the situation
makes the statement that he indica.
tions Of the Congressional canvass
point all one way-to the overthrow
of bossism-on the seventh of Novem-
Der next.
Time enough has elapsed to give
the discordant elements of the coali.
tion parties opportunity to display
themselves. Both the Readjnster
and the Republican parties to the
coalition have split The former
have divided into Malone and anti
Malone factions, while third sec.
ton of the Readjuster party, under
Massey's leadership, have renowned
Readjusterism as dead issue, and
have returned to the ranks of the
Democratic party. The Republicans
have ceased also to act together, a
part only adherring to their bargain
with Malone, while the remainder,
comprising a large proportion Of the
colored population, have made
straight out Republican or Malone
nominations.
The sum of the above facts is,
therefore, this: That Malone will
lose largely from both the Democrat.
ic-Readjuster and the Republican.
Rcadjusier wings of his army, and is
most probably marching the remain.
der to political Waterloo. This
will be more evident when it is re.
called that the majority with which
he carried the State last fall, when
he controlled all the elements Of his
past success, was only about 1900.
That be will not lose enough of this
vote to beat him, say 1000 ballots,
would seem to be incredible, consid.
ering that some Of his most iniluen,
tial supporters, such as Massey, Ly-
brook, Hale, Newberry, Ward, Mail
ley, Reynolds, etc., have abandoned
him and joined his opponents. The
fight made against him by anti.Re-
adjuster Republicans is specially bit:
ter. Dawson, the colored Republican
candidate for Congaessman.at-large
is an active canvasser, and little
doubt can be entertained that he
will draw enough votes from Wise to
elect Massey, who will poll almost
the whole Democratic strength.-Rcg,

The Peabody Fund-S2,00O in
West virginia..

Agent Curry Of the Peabody Edu-
catiun Fund reports that during the
year ending October /, he expended
SS0,3S4 in u southern States, in
amounts running from $1,000 in
West Virginia to Sl7,500 in Texas
OF this sum slS,300 went to public
schools. S17559 for teachers insti-
tutes, and $1,000 for the Educational
Journal, while the balance was laid
out in normal schools, scholarships,
and the like. The report indicates
that the work of the year was very
satisfactory, and that southern school
officers fully appreciated the aid Civ
en-. By the terms of the bequest the
trustees have a wide discretion in
distributing the money to aid in es-
tahlishing a permanent system Of
free schools for the whole people,"
and, under the plan adopted, the APP
plication is being continually chang
ed. 1t is sought to only help those
that help themselves, and do that
but temporarily. Accordingly the
money is constantly used, so far as
possible, where it will do most to aid
the school work of the local govern
ments, and this is found to be very
largely in educating teachers. In
one way and another over three
quarters of the expenditures are for
this purpose.

The Cause.

II is useless to mourn over our late
defeat in this county, for we cannot
remedy that now. But we may be
permitted to give some of the causes
Of that defeat in this Democratic
county of Mason. We had a good
ticket in the field, which should have
enlisted the enthusiastic support of
every Democrat in the county, and
would have done so, if there had been
q proper organization of the party.
The Republicans went into the
fight thoroughly organized in every
school district in the county, backed
with plenty of money from the Jay
Hubbell Fund, or from other source.
The Democrats had neither organ.
ization or money. Shortly after the
polls were opened, it was discovered
by the Democrats, at every precinct,
that the Republicans were wonder
fully organized, and that the "bosses"
had their men well in hand, and
that they had been counting noses;
and that the Democrats were in a de
plorable state of disorganization, and
that our voters were being captured
one after another, for this Republic
can candidate and that Republican
candidate. They even drew the Re-
publicans from the Greenback party,
leaving, with few exceptions, only
Democrats to vote the Greenback
ticket.
Had we been half as well organi.
zed as were the Republicans, the re-
suit would have been different, and
we would have elected our entire
ticket, and given both Gibson and
Simmons handsome majorities. AS
it is we are only defeated by an aver.
age majority of thirty votes. When
we consider the little interest mani.
Tested by the Democrats, we are sur
prised that we were not beaten full
thousand votes. Democrats remain
ed diStressingly inactive during the
whole canvass, and even on the day
Of election. The familiar counter.
ances of the old workers at the polls
were conspicuously absent on elect
ion day, and did not render that sup,
port to the Democratic ticket that
they had at former elections, and
which the party had right to ex-
pect of them. This had q tendency
to dampen the zeal of those who did
work, and the result is seen.
The Democratic vote is nearly one
thousand, short in the county. In
the strong Democratic precincts be.
low the Kanawha hardly u fourth of
the Democratic vote was polled, and
our majorities from that section were
little better than nothing. Seventy
five more votes from CleDdinen and
Hannah would have saved the coun.
ty to the Democrats.
There must be a cause for this
luke-warmness on the part Of Demo-
Gratis. If there is any feeling in our
ranks, we hope that steps will be ia,
ken at once to reconcile the differ.
ences so as to re-unite the party in
solid column for the great political
battle to be fought two years hence.
With the party working harmonious.
ly together, and full vote out, Ma.
son county is reliably Democratic by
three hundred majority, the claim Of
the Republicans to the contrary not.
withstanding.
Commence now to put the party in
battle'array for 1884.
