A NAME IN THE SAND.
BY GEO. D. PRENTICE.

Alone walked the ocean strand,
a pearly shell was in my hand,
] stopped and wrote upon the sand
My name, year and day
AS onward from the spot haste,
One lingering look behind cast,
A wave came rolling high and fast,
And washed my line away
And so, methought. twill quickly be
With every mark on earth of me;
a wave of dark Oblvion's seq
Will sweep across the place
Where have trod the sandy shore
OF time, and been TO be no more
or me, my day, the name bore,
TO leave no track or trace.
And yet, with Him who counts the sands,
And holds the water in His hands,
know a lasting record stands
Inscribed against my name,
or all this mortal part has wrought,
OF all this waking soul has thought,
And from these heeting moments caught
For glory or for shame.

What next

After man came woman.
And she has been after him ever since.
1t costs more to keep a woman than
three dogs end shot gun
But she pays you back with interest
by giving you Il house full of children to
keep you awake at night and smear mo.
lasses candy over your Sunday coat.
Woman is the superior being in--Mas.
sachusetts.
There are about sixty thousand more
of her sex than males in that State.
This accounts for the terrified, hnntcd
down expression Of the single men who
emigrate from the East.
Woman WAS not created perfect.
She had her faults-such rs false hair,
false complexion, and so on.
But is great deal better than her
neighbor, and she knows it.
Eve was o woman.
She must have been model wife, too,
for it cost Adam nothing to keen her in
clothes.
Still, | don't think she was very happy.
She couldn't go TO sewing circles and
air information about everybody she
knew, nor excite the envy of other ladies
by wearing her new winter bonnet to
church.
Neither could she hang over the back
fence and gossip with her neighbor.
All these privileges were denied her.
Poor Eve, she's dead now
And the fashion she inauguratcd is
dead.
What q beautiful example in simplicity
OF dress is shown some Of the followers
OF feshion by that domestic animal, the
cat, which, rising in the morning, washes
its face with its right hand, gives its tail
three tremendous jerks, and is already
dressed for the day.
The happiest period of wcman's life
is when she is making her wedding gar
ments.
The saddcst is when her husband comes
homo late at night and yells t. her from
the front door step to throw out hand
fu! of key holes Of different sizes.
There is some curiosity in feminine
nature.
For instance, once knew young lady
who could easily pass apOther one on the
street without looking around to see what
she had on.
Poor thing, she was blind.
The average age of II woman is about
twenty-five.
she never lives to be very old.
Some Of them look to be well advanced
iii years, out you shouldn't judge by np
pearances.
If you will take the trouble to ask 9
woman how old she is you will get Mt The
real facts Of the case.
And discover that she is quite young
She seldom passes her thirtieth birthday
About that time she begins to tear ou
certain leaves in the old family Bible.
Women, rs general thing, are hare
to manage. know but one way to keer
n woman in check.
Aud that is for her to dress in gng

called his 40 daughters to him and said I:
"dy children, you know that | am a rich

afterwards they invited their parents and
few friends 10 an elaborate dinner
which they had cooked unaided, and on
that occasion they wore dresses of their
own making. The delighted father gave
each girl a check for $4,000.

side Of the table from her admirer. The
latter, however, was equal to the occasion.
Tearing leaf from his pocketbook, he
wrote on it, under cover of the table
"Will you bo my wife7 Write yes or no

he asked him in whisper to take the

and the gentleman, in en- agony of sus-

and fixed his eyes, with badly disguised
eagerness, 10 try and judge from her ex.

received. He had forgotten one thing
namely, that ladies seldom carry pencils

The Mormon Delegates In congress.

SALT LAKE, December y h.-The follow
ing singular editorial appears in the Deseret
Nelcs, the Mormon Church gan, this even
ing. II confirms ii e reports that thu Church
power is extending TO adj joining Territories.
and the election Of Post shows that he is
pledged to do the bidding Of the leaders.
With Elders Game and Post, the Mormo rs
will have two delegates in Congress. The
Church paper says: "Thele is one Congress-
man who is willing to acknowledge that be is
much indebted to the Mormon part of his
constituency fer his petition in the House Of
Representatives. We refer to the Hon, N.
Il. Post, delegEtz-e.sct from Wyoming Terri
tory. That gentleman received the Nor
mon vote at this recent election, and
does not hesitate to announce tie fact.
He knows that the Mormon portion
Ct his supporters are entitled to as much con.
sideTation ON his pert IS any others and in
letter to friend Of ours he frankly admits
the good service which they rendered to him,
and expresses his desire to assist them 70 ell

afraid 90 meet any issue that nay be raised
by his acknowledgment, nor ashamed 20 ad-
NIT that be was greatly aided in the success
he hos achieved by the vote Of the 'Mormons'
OF Wyoming. We DO not see why any man
who gains Office by tie votes of
the Mormon people should hesitate to
acknowledge thas fac5 and return the
compliment by assisting in seeing them
righted, unless lie is coward and time

or whatever other name may be given i, ID

il not a Republican or Democrat running for
office in this mountain region who would not
be mighty glad of Mormon support at the
polls; but the nerve 20 acknowledge l., and
to stand up for what IS righs in relation to
this NJ h-abused people, is wanting when the
popui 9ics is heard in ignorant conderlna-
ton hem. We hope the delegate from
Wyo ,ig will be true to his pest, and man.

A singular SALE.

We are in receipt of the annual cata.
logue of the Dead Letter Office, announcing
the sale by auction of articles that have
accumulated in tia. Office in the past year.
There are nearly ten thousand packages
enumerated, and they embrace some thirty
thousand distinct articles. These are of
every imaginable character possible to car
rage through the mails, and include cigars,
watches, shirts, caps, stationery, mats,
hardware, ribbons, perfumes, toys, oiled
clothing, dress cults, foul linen, soiled fan.
nels, corsets, hair combiugs, coins, green.
backs, foreign bank notea, over three thou
sand books, from volume of the British
Encyclopedia to the Key to Heaven ;
wigs, medicines. spoons, type, musical
instruments, paintings, cloaks, furs,
scales, jewels, ginger, pepper, razors,
haIamocks, tools, clocks, wall paper, liver
pads, microscopes, cow milkers, electrical
machines, coral, wax, lamps, printing ma.
terlal, feathers, etc., to the end of a long
chapter. The curious part of the matter
resides IN the fact that the law permits the
sender of any mailable letter or parcel to
write his name and address on the envelope
or wrapper. If the patrons Of the mails
had aVailed themselves of this privilege at
least so per cent, OF the articles included
IN this catalogue would have been restored
to the owners, provided they were wiling
to pay the return postage. Il is hard to
believe that any one in this day and age,
capable OF directing and mailing parcel,
can be so ignorant or Negligent as to fail to
avail of this privilege.
