On THE BRIDG 4.

II was young Robin and his love
stood on a bridg- at even song;
Nights countless lights were iLsbOve;
Below, the strssmlet slid along.
Across the rail she lightly leant,
And gaZsd into The quiet stream,
" herein she saw with deep content
The buried stsfs' reflected glcRm:
But never stars shOne half as bright
As Elsie's eyes that summer night.
Around her taper wsict ar arm
Her gallant Kobin's-gently lay;
In place and u there luTked q charm
That owned no kinship to the day.
Familiar sounds upon the gale
Were softly waited to the ear,
And from the darkness of the vale
The lOye-lorn mayls Huted clear;
But sweeteT than the song he sung,
The words that trembled on her tongue,
The shadows deepen In the dell;
Weird bats athwsrt the water play;
And on the fitful breeZes swell
The village church bells far away.
Through all the windings Of the glade.
The stately trees, like phantoms stand;
Whilst Love was leading man and maid
Far onward into fairy land;
Aud neither had on earth a part,
Save only in the others heart.
Anon, from yonder wooded ridge,
The cold 400 climbs the blue eXpanse,
She glorlfies the rustic bridge,
Her beams upon the brooklet dance;
She softly winds about the twain
The radiance of her liquid Light,
AS though, for lovers, she would fam
Create a fairer day from night.

in a heap, blackered, burned, crisped-all
the image Of God taken, shriyeled, from
than by the eager, u~nconquersble flames.
But why bring up these narrowing pictures?
From the rooms of the Women's National
Industrial League at Washington the APPEAL
has received a communication signed by Char
lot;e Smith, president, asking our attention to
this narrowing subject. The lesgue has hsdthe
matter under consideration, and they ask
that some check he put to a system that
sends the poor, tired girls at night to sleep
crowded in close, ill-ventilated rooms, desti-
tute of comforts and not possessed even Of
safety. The ladies of the league, therefore,
adopted resolutions that "in view of the ca
lamities which have occurred in Milwaukee,
s.. Louis, New Yors, and more recently in
C1kato, MINI, whereby a great loss Of
life occurred to the employees of the hotels
which were destroyed by FIRE, that it is the
duty Of proprietors Of such and similar es-
tablishments to provide ample means, Of es.
cape from the danger attending such contin-
g~encies; that it is the duty OF Stale Legisls-
lures to enact such laWs az shall obligate the
propristors Of such establishments where large
Numbers Of females aud children are ex-
posed to the dangers of fire, to provide irs-
escapes Of sufficient capacity to remove such
persons from the danger TO which they are
constantly exposed" The Womsn's Ma
tional League therefore ask that the humane
people Of Memphis keep the action Of the
league in view, and require from the Lsgis-
lature OF Tennessee the action necessary TO
save women from a fate so dreadful. To the
ladies Ct Memphis this subject appeals
strongly. By preparing petitions when the
next Legislature meets, and seeing that those
petitions are unanimously signed these DEVIL
ish sacrifices to Moloch and Msmmon may
be brought to an end in America, as those to
Juggernaut have been brought to an end in
| India.

OF INTEREST TO JEWS AND en- RS
TIAES.

The book OF Deuteronomy has long been
the tubjec! Of sharp criticisms, and has been
deemed a production Of a later date Than the
time of Moses. A bookseller in Jerusalem
has obtained from an Arab fifteen slips of
black sheep leather, containing a portion OF
Deuteronomy in the same characters as those
on the celebrated Moabite stone, and bearing
a date nine centuries before Christ. II gen.
uiue these documents are of extreme impor-
tance, and they have material variations
from the received text. The tenth Command.
ment, as it stands in the Hebrew Bible, is
but a continuation of the ninth. 1t says:
"Thou shalt not covet thy neigh5or's house,
his field, nor his man.servaut, nor his maid
servant, his OK, nor his asa, nor anything tina!
is thy neighboI's." The fragment now pro-
cursd has the folfoHing as the eighth COM
mandment: "Thou shalt not bear false
witness against thy brother. l am God,
thy God" The ninth: "Thou shalt not
covet his wife, nor his mao servant, NOR his
~maid-servant, nor anything that is HE. /
am God, thy God" Tine tenth! "Thou shalt
IA hatC my DiOLhoE III my htaiIs am OOu
thy God" This touches a controversy be-
tween the Catholics and the Protestants-
the former, following The Hebrew-as to the
proper division Of the ten commandments.
The Protestants view the ~"coVet" comm and
ment as being in or, not in two divisions,
but the discovered fragments give as the
tenth commandment a striking and hither-
to, as far as the Hebrew Bible ia concerned,
unknown precept. The matter will lead to
much investigation by biblical scholars, and
throw new lieht upon the question of the
genuinsnsss of that book. The readers oil

touch at Aberdeen will ind this subject one

By The light Of a magic lantern, the piano.
rama Of charred walls, crumblipg columns
and stopping towers Of a ruined and d~esolat-
eed city, ara suddenly dissolved into a city
of bewilderiDg beauty, teeming with a popu-
Iation living in luxury and spleudor. BY
the calcium Light OF truth the South has
been equally as suddenly transformed from a
Sahara into an Etdorado.- time
since, the Northern newspapers were busy in
defaming the South. The impression was
created that shell wac empty aud all the
devils we're here" that our people were out
Laws, and that it was a region which capital
and immigration should shun as IL would
the island Of Java. But now the picture
which these same newspapers paint OF the
South regenersted, manufacturing her own
cotton, iron and other products, her wasted
fields blooming, and her idle people employ
ed, wealth pouring in upon her from
all parts Of the earth end her citizens eDthu.
siastic in their devotion to the Union, Is in
striking contrast with former talsehood and
injustice. The Northern newspapers are now
yieing with each other in showing the in
ducements which the South offers to capital
and immigration. An interesting letter pub
lished in the New York Tribune a week ago
mentions a Georgia cottou-mill which has
''just declared a dividend Of twenty per
cent" and points out that, besides getting
his raw cotton half a cent a pound cheaper
than his Northern competitor, saving freight
on both the raw material and the finished
product, and slso saving seventy CENTS q bale
from the fact that he can buy his cottcn
without compression, the Southern manufac-
turer has an additional advantage in the
fact that cotton which has been subjected to
the compress sustains a mechanical iU-
jury which materially detracts from TIE
durability of the fabrics made Of it. This
fact will nave great influence in promoting
The development Of cotton manufacture in tts
South. The present difficulty OF our sectiC n
is a lack of manufacturing capital, but is
great natural advantages must soon attract
capital from the North and from Europe;
and il is not unlikely that within a quarter
Of a century the cotton.growing States will
be manufacturing the larger part of their
own staple. And it is further predicted thu
persons now living will see 90, 900
bales as the product Of one year. The out
look Of the South was never go auspicious as
now. With her cheap free labor, with her
immense mines of iron and coal, with her
new material for cotton manufacturing, with
her boundless forests and with her mild
climate TOR uninterrupted work throughout
The year, the South ia dssiinsd TO hsGomO tbs
most prosperous manufacturing region on
the face Of the globe.
