saw big dark object rising from the depths
1t came to the surface within ten feet of the
skiff. The fishermen rowed rapidly shore
ward.
The whale followed, frisking about in a
way that threatened disaster to the boat
and its occupants. Finally its attention
was diverted by board floating in the
water. The whale lashed 1t about and
raised high jinks in the pillows. When
last seen the monster was touzing with the
board out near the horizon.

to-day that he could not announce the COM

nor would we attempt to assure
the negroes everything promised
by their agents, who are more
interested in the fees; they are to
receive than in the welfare Of
either race. We think there isno
cause for alarm. Ii the colOred
man is not satisfied with the fair
treatment he receives at the
hands of the Whites, let them de-
part in peace, and seek otheran
better lands if they are to be
found. We venture the assertion
that the negro will find no better
homes and enjoy no higher priv
ileges than he enjoyed in North
Carolina. He has been denied no
right the law gives; and he has
exercised his ballot, fully and
freely, in the matters of State.
The white man has built his
school houses and paid teachers
to educate the children of the
former slave. No race of people
has ever done more for another
race placed among them, than
the white man of the South has
done for the negro. Yet Sambo
believes the white now is an enc
my to his race, and will be led
by some designing politician of
the North or West, before he will
listen to the reasoning OF those
among whom he has always
lived. The negro is antagonistic
to the true interest of the land,
and if heretains this antagonism,
the State can well afford to ex-
change him for a class who will
better guard her interests.

quaintest English ballads, John Gil

General Lyle wrote a beautiful COM

He had promotion that he was going
to die the next day.

which has made the name of Nora Per-
ry known in the world Of letters, was
jotted down on the back of an old let

was to achieve in the pages Of a noted
magazine.
Thomas Moore, while writing "Lalla
Rookh,' spent SO many months in
reading up Greek and Persian works
that he became al accomplished ORR
entail scholar, and people found it diff
hculty to believe that its scenes were
not penned on tine spot instead of in a
retired dwelling in Devonshire.

Home influence.
( Middleburg School Herald.

The patriotic father instills the
love OF his country in his prom
Using boy and loyalty to an es-
tablished form of government is
thus transmitted from genera
ton to generation by the inhu-
ences of home training. The in
habitant of the Scottish Border
taught his BARN that England's
ruler was Il tvrant and rebellion
was just; and this spirit antago-
nized British rule till English
customs entered the Scottish
home and trained the children to
be subject to the Royal power.
The home training of the perse-
cuted Puritan and exiled Cavalier
infused the principle of liberty
into the very soul of the Ameri-
can colonies, and burst the iron
bands of military rule that Eng
land drew around the young
child OF the West. The feudal
magnificence of the Southern
Plantation afforded home culture
that made the Southern gentle
man the admiration Of the civil
lied world. The type of a nation
is drawn from it's people, and the
character OF the people is shaped
by the environments OF home; SO
the admonition and example of
father and mother to the grow
ing child is the mandate that sets
the limit to the power of kings and
dashes the crown from the brow
of the tyrant. The Hebrew chill
dren gathered around the home
altar as the patriarch prepared
the sacrifice and saw the heav-
emily flame consume the Offering
and thus the youths were so well
instructed at home in the truere-
ligiOn of their fathers, that king
Iy courts nor oppressive task
masters could make the Isrealites
in Egypt turn away from the
God of Abraham and Isaac.
And after the promised Canaan
was realized SO important was
the home training, that the di-
vineini JUNCTION forbade the chosen
Ipeople from bringing into their
families the inhabitants of the
surrounding nations, that the
home altar might not be desc
Grated by any heather rites OF
mgodly traditions. And when
after this the sacred precints OF
home We're invaded either by the
omission OF ceremonies enjoined
or the introduction of forbidden
rites, when home training was
neglected or perverted, the splen
dor OF the nation itself would be-
gin to decline and some Babylon
would cause them to hang THEN
harps upon the willows anC
weep by proud Euphrates
stream. These examples show
that home training is. the foun
| dation of every institution
| whether ecclesiastic, civil, or mil
itary, that is essential to the
preservation and welfare of so
ciety and of nations.
Since this influence is SO extern
sive, it should not be allowed tC
exert its force for evil. Let thu
home be supplied with goot
books, religious literature anC
periodicals, that the early incli
nations of the mind NAV be fol
good.

toward the settling of the diff
cult social problems, than al
