Wives OF Old Marblehead.

They say that down at brave old Marble
head every third woman is a widow. Here
among fisher folk the same is true And so
the gong and coming, and going and never
coming, have woven warp and wool of
smiles and tears here, which have mellowed
and softened thousands of human hearts in
way you can quickly see and feel. Your fish
erman who comes, and the wife, sweetheart
or child, that is here to greet him, are DER
tender for 1t all. The old city is used to il
and does not mind it. 1t is the way its toll
ers of the sea have. And so if YOU ever walk
her streets and see a hulk of a fellow hold
ing happy woman as he would clutch a
fife rail or capstan head in heavy storm,
you will know he is simply making FAST
with the strong hawser of an honest love to
the very anchorage of his life, utterly I'M
conscious of your, or anybody's sense of the
proprieties. And this tenderness, too, is all
comprising. There are many trusts and
funds for the widow and fatherless. and
these men give generously to Them The
light and darkness of it all come piteously to
cognizance even in the ffsherman's gayest
hours ashore.
On every week day night the whole year
through when the seaport is stirred BY the
arrival of fleets with their s'fares" or car
goes of fish, there is ''fishermans ball, n,and
often many. These are never for individual
profit, but invariably for the benefit of
women whose hearts are breaking. For
those who are merry making had comrades
whose lives went out in shrieking storm
where a Worcester swept some craft from it's
fastenings upon the Banks, or dory was
beaten into the seething sea- This year
alone II fishing craft were lost and 1877 fisher
men were swept into eternity. The havoc
goes on from year to year until one can hardly
hear aught in the whistling winds and hoarse
voices upon the breakers alongshore but the
piercing cries of drowning fishermen and
heart sickening dirges for the dead.-Edgal'

Grant and Stanton.

There was always sort of personal barrier
between them. Grant respected profoundly
the services Stanton had rendered the coun-
try, and doubt not the sentiment was recip-
rocated. But Stanton was harsh and austere
in manner, and apparently cared little for
the feelings of Others He doubtless had his
affections and intimacies, but Grant was
included in neither; and at times the harsh
ness was extended even to him, probably
without intent, perhaps unconsciously. But
Grant was in reality one of the most sensitive
of men. He regarded the feelings of others
carefully, and it was always painful to him
to infict pain. Although few supposed so,
he felt acutely all the censures and attacks,
and even the Sights Of which he was the OBJ
ject. He said nothing, perhaps, when he re-
ceived them, but there was abundant evil
dence, which those who were with him closely
could detect, that Grant was thin skinned
man. Therefore, these asperities of Stanton
wounded him.-Badeau's Memoirs.

DOCK LIFE IN LONDON.
The Seamy Side of Existence in the En-
lish ACKNOWLEDGMENT Isolation

The Seamy Side of Existence In the Eng
1ish Metropolis-Social Isolation.
The universal dislocation of the social life
OF East London manifests itself in the docks
not only by the absence of all ties between
employer foremen and men, but in the COM
plete severance of the different grades of la
Dor, and, among the more respectable of the
working class, in the isolation of the indi-
vidual family. The permanent man of
the docks ranks in the social scale below the
skilled mechanic or artisan. With wage
usually from twenty to twenty-five shillings
week and an average family, he exists
above the line of poverty, though in times
OF domestic trouble he frequently sinks be-
low it. He is perforce respectable, and his
life must needs be monotonous. His work
requires little skill Or intelligence; the one
absolute condition is regular and constant at
tendance all the year through. He has even
vested interest in regularity, the dock COM
pany acting as benefit society in sickness
and death, an interest which he forfeits if he
is discharged for neglect of work.
BY the irregular hands the permanent man
is looked upon as an inferior foreman. and
d1sIked as such, or despised as a drudge.
lie, In his turn, resents the popular charac-
terization of dock laborers as the "scum of
the earth" AS rule the permanent men do
not live in the immediate neighborhood of the
docks. They are scattered far and wide in
Forest Gate, Hackney, Upton and other out
lying districts, the regularity of their wage
enabling them to live in small house rented
at the same figure as one room in Central
London. And if the temptation of cheap
food and employment for the wife and
children induces man to inhabit St. Georges
in the east or Limehouse, he will be found in
peabody" or some strictly regulated
model dwelling. He will tell you: 81 make a
point OF not mixing with any one,' and per-
haps he will sorrowfully complain 'swhen
the women gets thick together there's always
row." 1t is the direful result of the whole
sale desertion of these districts by the better
classes that responsibility means social isola-
ton with its enfeebling and disheartening
effect.
In common with all other workingmen
with moderate but regular income, the
permanent dock laborer is made by his wife.

SECRET OF HOODS DEFEAT.

What Col. Mckay Told Gen. John NJ.
Palmer About $4,000 Poker Bet.
II had command of a corps before Atlanta
on July 10, 1864. We were at that time
about five miles from the city, ON Peach Tree
creek. Davis division had passed over the
creek. About o'clock in the afternoon our
boys brought in citizen they had captured
on that side of the creek. He was brought
before me and questioned him closely. He
did not appear to know much, but said he
had read in an Atlanta paper that Gen. John
son had been relieved of the command of the
opposing army and had been succeeded by
Gen. J. B. Hood Col Mckay of our side
soon happened along and asked me if there
was anything new. told him of the change
of commanders on the part of the enemy;
that johnson had been succeeded by Hood.
He appeared greatly alarmed and exclaimed:
My God, general, that means trouble-I tell
you Hoods fighter l was somewhat
alarmed myself and asked Mckay what he
knew about Hoods fighting qualities:
mckay said: well, sir general, l was in
San Antonio, Tex, once before the war. and
1 saw that man Hood bet So 900 on a hand in
a game of poker, and he didn't have even
pair of jacks
w ell, uuu U say uluCu Ill RESPONSE, DuG
I decided in my mind that man who would
bet $4,000 on hand in friendly game of
poker when he didd't even have one pair to
back him would be a bad man to meet ON
field of battle when he was backed by several
thousand able-bodied Confederate soldiers,
and the sequel proved that Mckay was not
wrong in his estimate.

scarcely ceased speaking when we heard a
terrible firing to our left. | Immediately
dispatched messenger in that direction, who
soon returned with the information that
Hood had made terrible charge on our left,
and had already broken through two lines of
Davis division and was now charging in our
direction, and, sure enough, he was soon
down upon us. But with my preparations,
already described we were ready to meet
him, and you bet we gave him warm recep-
ton, and we defeated him after hard fight
ing, and soon thereafter marched victorious
into Atlanta. Had it not been for McKay's
story of the $4,000 bet he would have made
it very uncomfortable for u.s. As it was, we

A New Stock of Hares.

Several thousand hares were recently
shipped from England to parties on the east
ern shore of Virginia, and have been turned
loose upon some of the smaller islands along
the Atlantic coast. 1t is hoped in this way
to replenish the original stock of old hares

foxes, was rapidly becoming extinct.

II. Hutchinson, a well-known stock dealer of
Republican City, this state, passed through
Omaha, a few days ago, on his way HON
from Canada. He carried with him an an
tique bible in old English letters, which was
printed in 1859. Though lacking but one
year of being"300 years of age, it is still in a
state of excellent preservation, though it
bears evidence of having been in its time
most literally used. 1t bears on some of its
pages the record of the birth and death of
some of Mr.. Hutchison's ancestors, the
entry having been made in 1850. 1t tells the
tale to-day it did when the names were
transcribed, though the writer thereof has
long since been among the departed majority.
