FORTUNES FLOWER.

An, Norah. yet the grass Il wet-'tis early times
you're out
And, sure, the sun and you, my pet should light
US turn about.
Tho buds uncurl, the swallows whIrl, you lead tbs
year astray;
And what's the happy news, my pearl, that warns
your heart to-day;
All, can't trace the darling face I've loved for
twenty years.
And don't | know the April grace where smiles
Just touch the tears
There's store galore your basket Ills Of blossoms
golden gay,
But more. ashore, than daffodills you're bringing
home today
A four leaved shamrock happy hour, that prom.
ise must come true;
And lucky flower that Dams the power to bring
good luck to you
At others tread it hides its head, and crouched
away in fenr,
And pushed its four leaves forth instead tie mo-
meut you drew near.
And what's the boon tho omen briEgsi for wealth
you'd ncyer eek;
And health ard bloom were hooking things to
such Dlayday check,
4 secrets cheap those eyes would keep know
the happy lad
But, Oh. Que lover; rapture deep will leave a
county sad.

Pastry of the Ocean.

a reporter debarred from his usual call
at Delmonico's, lunched at one Of tho
coffee saloons Of Park row. At his table
sat an old sea bronzed sailor, who sud-
denly made the unappetiziug inquiry Of:
"Did you ever cut any lamp oil dough-
nuts'n
POSITIVELY, never" replied the re-
porter, with slight gasp OF horror.
Tho Old man smilingly said well,
they're better than these greasy things on
our plates. IN my young days / was Il
whaler, and the captains Of whaling ships
used to give prizes 10 the men; something
for sighting the first whale, or striking u
big 200 barrel fellow, the fastest boats
crew, and so on. After a ship had slowed
her first 1000 barrels Of oil, the crew
would get barrel Of flour as q present
from the captain When we tried ont
our next sperm whales blubbor, the cook
would take lot Of our flour, roll out q
big batch Of dCughnuts and cook them In
the hot, boiling oil-and first rate they
used to taste when eaten with molasses.
You sec the oil when fresh is just as
sweet as lard, and besides you must con-
slider that it is not fish oil at all, Tor the
whale, you know IS an animal. New

proTrCrIo> THE sOUTu.

I'm the discussion Of the Mills tarin Oil
IN the House n day or two ago, MI
Hemphil of South Carolina made very
SIGNIFICANT remark, while discussing tue
tax on cotton goods. Said he III the
cotton mills of the North could not make
monty. or succeed without projection
le, them come TO South Carolina where
the cotton goods there manufactured are
sold In all paris Of the world
Here was struck the keynote OF pro-
lection as far as the South Is concerned
and little reflection Is sufficient TO SCI
any one to wondering why the South, OF
all sections in the country, should desire
q protective tariff. Cotton Is one OF the
main staples Of the South, and 1t Is on
that and tobacco that our section can
confidently rely for raising our people 10
the point of wealth which is destined 10
make them in the future, as In the past
the richest and, therefore, the most pow
eriul Of the Union
All the world uses cotton. 1t is rs
necessary to man az is his food, for every
one must have clothing, and cotton fur
plshes the cheapest aud most available
goods in reach Of the masses OF the
world. Ali nations and peoples must
therefore buy cotton; and while the
North may sneer AT the old Southern
boast that Cotton Is King" they must
confess that It il a substantial boast.
The fortunes Northern manufacturers
themselves have made from cotton is
sufficient proof that the boast is not an
idle one.
The South, then, holding such sceptte
Is foolish In the extreme TO cast 1t aside.
With free trade in GOTTEN goods, she can
undersell the world She has, at hand,
mechanical facilities for the manufacture
OF her great staple equal to those of any
other locality, and sho has the raw ma
terial growing right at her factory doors
In fair free fight Tor cotton supremacy,
therefore. she ctn beat the world, and
this means that without protective
tariff. which enables old England, on one
side. and New England, on the other, TO
successfully compete with her, she can
become queen aul empress of the uni
versal cotton market. She has. IN short
within herself a mine oR wealth OF suiii-
cient magnetism to attr5ct to her large
proportion OF the riches of the globe.
The South, Il from selfish motives
alone, should most certainly oppose a
protective tariff which 20 distinctly works
to her disadvantage.
