THROUGH A GLASS DARkLY.

There's many a nobleman dwells in cot,
The palace holds many a clown;
And princes have beds OF the tamarind bark,
Willie beggars have cOuches of down.
Brave kings are in cotton, serfs glory in
silk,
While slaves like an emperor show;
For the worth Of title is stamped on the
heart,
But the world doesn't look at it so.
Here misers are prodigally fiinging their
To spendthrifts who hoard in their wake
There mumbles rake in the gown OF
priest
To priest in the garb of rake.
Sweet SAINTS they are living in novels OF
And sinners in Sanctifcial Row.
The heart i'm the breast is the only true
But the world doesn't look at it so.
There are generals lying in graves un-
marked
And privates with monuments grand;
The ignorant stalk in the chambers OF
But the Quiet mind ruleth the land.
A shadow divergent each object of earth
O'ercasts from one sun in the SKY
And fancies are many as beings have birth,
But the one God ruleth on high.
So laugh at that title that's only sham
And at caste-but silver-washed plate
Stuck up on the door of tenemant grand
Belonging to natures estate.
Its inmates are constantly changing anf
pass
Each year out of sight, like the snow,
Whose going but stirs up the filth OF the
street
And the Saviour will look at it SO.

AN APPEAL.
To Friends of Oxford Orphan Asylum.
lOrphanS' Friend. /

lOrphanS' Friend
1t is again necessary to call the at
tention of the good people OF North
Carolina, and especially of the Masonic
fraternity, to the fact that the Oxford
Orphan Asylum is not yet self sus-
tanning institution-that the annual
appropriation of the State, the proceeds
of our several industries, and the vol
untary contributions OF. citizens are not
sufficient to meet current expenses,
which, with the best management and
closest economy, must at all times be
heavy and constantly on the increase
with the admission of every new appli-
cant. Our friends will please bear in
mind that we have over two hundred
and fifty children to be fed, clothed
and educated; that orphans are not
different from other children, except
perhaps that they have larger appetites
and come to Us with scantier wardrobes
To supply their actual necessities and
keep the institution up to fair stand
ard, requires money, and considera-
BILE amount of it. We need help, we
need it now, and ask, in the name of
humanity, that all who feel an interest
in this grand work of giving to the
fatherless and forsaken the training
and protection Of a Christian home,
come at once to our aid with substan-
tial tokens of recognition, sympathy
and support.
OF all active charities, none offers a
larger or more attractive field than the
orphan work to-day. The result of
such labor cannot be estimated. The
actual service to Church and State
and country computation. Picture

Always push up-hill-few people need

THE OLD NORTH STATE.
An Interesting Bit Of History.

Gath, in the Cincinnati Enquirer,
gives bit of North Carolina history
in the following. He says the first
domestic event in the history of the
State was the sending out of sort of
volunteer commission to look at the
beautiful lands of the Cherokees in
Western North Carolina and Tennessee
in the year 1871. Ten white men and
a few Indians went, and among them
was John Ashe, whence came possibly
the name of Asheville. Gabriel John
son in 1887 spoke of the factions, the
ignorance and the commences of this
State. AS late as 1852 there were only
10000 whites in North Carolina and
10, 900 slaves and free negroes.
Slavery did not take here as ferce) y
as in either South Carolina or Virginia.
The early taxes were very high. The
mothers of illegitimate children were
sent to Jail until they would betray the
fatherhood, and the father must either,
give security to take care of the child
or he was hired out at auction.
Another decided event was the ar
rival of the Scotch Jacobites. But the
great fact of this State was not any
settlement from the east whatever, but
the settlement from the Western part
of the State from a wholly different
source. North Carolina had so Ian
guished, that all its healthy, high west
ern districts were unoccupied. There
slowly crept in the rear of the sea coast
denizens of vigorous Scotch Irish and
occasional German elements, including
Moravians from prolific Pennsylvania.
These people multiplying fast and
knowing good land when they saw it,
rapidly overran Western Maryland,
came down the Virginia valley and
took up the good farm land and follow,
ing the Blue Ridge Mountain began to
fill up Western North Carolina. They
were in the main, Presbyterians, though
some other elements were attached to
them, such as Lutherans. There were
also German Baptist elements in the
combination. These were the people
who settled the vigorous towns like
Charlotte, Salisbury, ETC. Finally
North Carolina was taken away from
its proprietors and made royal prov
ince, which was a great advantage
though it stirred up some opposition
No founder of any State in America
who owned the land in his family ever
amounted to anything except William
Penn.

Gated, self-respecting citizen, and say
that the mite you contributed towards
such transformation was spent for no
purpose or could have been used to

We ask our friends to think of these
things, to remember our needs, and
to send in their contributions We
dislike TO remind them, but they have
forgotten us of late, and necessity
compels this appeal. From the lodges

the gentle breathing OF babe to the report
Of & cannor-is nothing more nor less than
an agitation OF the air which sets a lot of
little air waves in motion, just as pebble
thrown into a sheet of still water creates
successive ring waves, which widen till they
reach the shore. The sound waves are like
the waves in the ocean, and can undergo
but two changes, in being larger or smaller,
or far apart or close together, and out of
these simple elements is made the infinite
variety of sound known to life, SO delicate
is the mechanism of the ear in detecting
their variations. Many people think that
the phonograph writes shorthand, probably
because that is called photography and is a
system of sound writing. Shorthand, how
ever, is not true photography, as it does
not write all sounds, but only some sounds.
and is really a system of making rapid
pictures of the dozen or more elemental let
ters which form the skeletons of all words.
The photograph, on the other hand, can
take anything.
1t catches some words better than others.
The most difficult are the words containing
the letter R, because that letter makes
more sound waves than all the other letters.
All of the vowels make fewer sound waves
than the consonants. Curiously enough,
loud noises do not disturb the air and make
so many waves as some quieter ones, the
only difference Being that they are stronger
waves, difference of quality rather than
of quantity. A sound having a certain
number AMI kind of waves or atmospheric
disturbances agitates tne diaphragm of the
phon ographs and this little plate is SO deli
cate that it catches every one of them. When
the machine is turned back, and 1t is set III
motion from tle other side by the needle
dropping into the holes 1t has already made,
the same motion of the diaphragm takes
place, and 1t in turn creates sound waves
exactly similar to the original ones, and
which strike the ear in the same way. If
you put your ear to a drum in a room
where there is any noise you will get the
same reproduction of sound. So closely
do the sound waves run together that thre0
or four words are recorded upon one inch
of surface Of the wax cylinder, and it takes
very strong inagnifying glass to make
them out.

30 many queer things have been done by

is tittle dents or holes made by the point of a
ueeuIe, ana without the use of a powerful
nagnitying glass you cannot distinguish
any difference between these sounds as re-
oorued by the phonograph. Nobody, not
even a scientist, would have thought such
machine possible fifteen years ago, aud
euat Is why it was discovered by acciden'
1nu not as the result of Il long series Of
.oslcal scientific deductions. And after it
was was discovered and perfected science has
iHttopped In and furnished the explanation Of
