Thoughts of the sweetest, saddcsl thing:

Who used to give me posics;
His eyes was blue as hyacinlh~,
HIS lips were red as roses,
And everybody looked topraiSc
His pretty looks, and wIilsomc ways.
The GIRLS that went to schon' with me
Made little jealous speeches,
Bee ,,lsc he brought me royalty
His biggest pluns and peaches,
And always ut the door would wait
To carry home my book and slate.

as if there weren't II dozen girls
With nicer eyes and longer C,lrls.
And this knew as well as they
And never could see clearly
Why more than Marion or May

Mr.. Lewis, GATHERINGS father, was a
man Of large wealth. ard this was his
only child. The pet of both parents,
until she wes seventeen years old, was
one of tinbroken sunshine. But at that
time, her mother died when her father,
marrying again, and to one unconsenial
to our hcroihe, the latter went to live
with Mr.. Cotton, who declared his in
tentlon of leaving her his large fortune.
Her year of morning over, her uncle
insisted upon opening his house, and
introducing Kate into society as his
heress. She came out, in her nine
tecnth year, a beauty, an understood
heiress, and a novelty, for Mrs Lewis,
herself avcrsc to society, had never in
troduced Kate into it.
OF course suitors were plenty, With
a tall, fall figure, perfect features, and
rare contrast Of black hair and eyes,
with pure red and white complexion,
Kate Lewis Was not one to pass unno-
ticed in society, and her reported heir
ess ship did not detract from her charms
Among those who admired this brllliat
ly beautiful girl, was a young physl-
clan, for whom Kate entertained the
greatest respect, and who had her warm,
sincere friendship. She did not know
why Frank Lee was such pet Of her
uncle's, but she met him at home CON
stantly. 1t vas an old love story and

WASHINGTON, March "a tSpecial.-The Presi-
dent and the Commissioner Of Internal Revenue,
Mr. Miller, held an impromptu jollihcation and
ratification" meeting last Wednesday. 1t was
brought about by telegram from collector
of Internal Revenue, Mr.. Crenshaw, to the Com
missioner, stating TINT the Georgia Democratic
State Executive Committee, In session in Atlanta
on that day, had passed resolutions approving the
Presidents course demanding his denomination
md indorsing his free-trade message. This was
regarded by Crcnshaw as O victory over Senator
joe Brown and Congressman Gambler and
Clements who lead tho anti-Interna Revenue
Democrats OF Georgia. or course Crenshaw Is
in favor of retaining the revenue, as II Is his
meat and bread: and Commissioner Miller is In
sympathy with Crenshaw's views and shares tho
lattcrs personal reasons.
Commissioner Miller was so elated over the
White House with it. The President was
equally delighted He saw in those resolutions
that he, and not Senator Brown and Congressman
Gambler and Clement represented the people OF
Georgia.
Yesterday the Georgia papers Of Thursday, con-
tanning full reports OF the proceedings OF the Ex
ecutive Committee, arrived, and created conster-
nation in the bosom OF Commissioner Miller. The
resolutions had not passed, owing to the strenuous
opposition Of Patrick Walsh, Georgia's member
OF the National Democratic Executive Commit.
tee who was seconded by many others. The
resolutions were not even permitted to 60 to
