A Romance From Texas.

About seven years ago in Lamar county David
Pierce had occasion to go TO the Southern mart
of the State, and bidding his family, which con
sisted of his wife and daughter, an atfectionate
adeu he took his departure. The weeks length.
ened into months, and finally a year had gone
by without any tidings from Pierce, until one
day little over five years ago word was re-
ceived from friend of the family that Dave
had died some where in the lower part of the
State.
Mrs. Pierce mourned the death Of her hus-
band, but after year she was persuaded To
abandon her widows weeds and wed another
The man she married was worthy and han
piness reigned in the family until the other day.
when the man mourned as dead appeared. On
being informed of his wifes marriage Pierce
first became blindly enraged and threatened
vengeance but finally Gained down and called
on his wife. She tainted at the sight of him.
but finally rallied and listened to explanations
Pierce, Oh going South, suddenly became insane
and was placed in the lunatc asylum in Austin
The friend that sent the word to Mrs. Pierce
thought he was doing humane act. and that
she would rather know that he was dead than To
think him insane. After having been cured of
his malady Pierce returned home with the re-
suit as stated. Finding his wife married 10
another man. with two or three small children
and realizing the unhappness he would cause II
he remained and claimed his wife he silently
and tearfully turned his back on all that was
dear to him and bid a last farewell to his home.

The Keely Motors Song of Hope.

From the Yankee Blade.
I've deep mysterious power and an occult
''ethericN force
That shall rattle thro' the galaxy and shake the
universe.
That shall haul the solar system like mighty
train of cars,
Crack the ridge pole of creation and shake
down the polar stars
A ten million engine power in my etheric vapo
floats
That will shake the consultations it my motor
ever notes.
If my motor ever notes,
If my motor ever notes,
l will jostle up the planets if my motor ever
notes.
Hitch belt from my invention around the axis
of the earth,
And the Migratory sympathy will speedily go
forth
That will start the earth rotating, and no power
its course can stop;
Spinning thro' the consultations like planetary
top,
And scare the trembling Pleads like a herd OF
frightened goats,
Shakes the rafterS of creation if my motor ever
notes.
If my motor ever notes,
If my motor ever notes,
Let the sun and moon take warning if my motor
notes
And think twill mote directly in about a week
or two
Please subscribe another million just to put the
matter thro';
Just paltry million dollars will secure what l
seek
And I'll set my motor noting by the middle of
next week;
So hand in your prompt subscriptions, cash or
promsSory notes
And you'l all be Goulds and Astors if my motor
ever notes.
If my motor ever notes,
If my motor ever notes.
All be Vanderbilts and RothSchildS if my motor
ever notes.

The chief event of this, the first day Of
the Jasper Festival will be the visit Of the
President and his wife. The President ac-
cepted the invitation to stop here on his
way to Florida, because he wanted TO see
the people of this city and the thousands OF
! visitors from different parts of the State
who, he was informed, would be here on
this occasion, and to give them a chance to
see him. He has always shown a willing
ness to comply with the requests of the
people. and, besides. when he accepted
Savannah's invitation he had every
reason to believe that a meeting with her
people would be productive of pleasure to
him and to them. He has no warmer ad-
mirers than they ares and no more enthusi-
asticsupporters They have watched his
course as President and have approved it,
and they have been profoundly impressed
by his sincerity and his clearly apparent
purpose to administer the government in
the interest of the whole country. They
see in his visits to the West
and the South not desire to seek plea sure
but an intention to do what he can to make
the people forget that they have ever been
divided by sectional issues. 1t is not TO be
wondered at, therefore, that they want to
see him. not so much from feeling of
curiosity as to show to him the respect they
entertain for him. They would like to take
him by the hand as they would friend aud
tell him that the best they have is at his
disposal, but as that is not possible their
demonstrations, whatever shape they may
take, will be a sincere announcement that
he is an honored and welcome guest.
For Mrs. Cleveland the entire South has
a genuine affection, and no where has she
warmer admirers than in this city. Her
name here is almost household word, and
her face is familiar to nearly every one,
although few of our people have ever seen
her. Her beauty and youth, combined
with her gentleness and goodness, have
given her place III their hearts, and they
would like nothing better than to take her to
their homes and show her their appreciation
Of her in their own hospitable fashion AS
she rides along our streets to-day she need
not feel that she is a stranger She will be
among friends
Savannah will not be able to show the
President and his party as much attention
as she would like to, because of the short
ness of their visit, but if good will is ac-
cepted for deeds they will have no heartier
reception anywhere during their present
visit in the South

The Republican papers are diligently
trying TO let the party down easy on its de-
feat in Michigan. One of them goes so far
as to say that the Republicans maintained
their usual ma jorities in the Congressional
election last week. The general plea, how
ever, is this: the district is rongly Repub-
lican, but there was a long and bitter
struggle for the nomination, and the con-
vention finally named as the candidate a
man who was in Europe ut the time, who
arrived at home only a day or two before
the election took place, and who, therefore,
could not put in any work for himself.
Added TO this was the fact that those who
failed TO get the nomination were inactive,
Jay Hubbell, the chief competitor, finding
he had business in the East as soon as Sey-
mour was nominated. On this account,
still less work was done. All this does very
well for an excuse, but it does not amount
90 a reason, for defeat The fact is that
the Democrats made the fight on the issue
set forth in the Presidents message, and
virtually they won.
