vi0lets; We have drunk n So #
Cool water from the rock and in the shade
Sunk to the noontide slumber; we have
pluclxed
The mellow fruitage Of the bending tree,
And girded to our pleasant wanderings : :.
When the cool winds came freshly from the
hills;
And when the tinting Of the Autumn leaves
Had faded from its glory, we have sat
BY the good fires of Winter, and rejoiced
Over the fullness Of the gathered sheaf.
God hath been very good" It's He whose
hand -: .&
Nodded the sunny hills, and followed out
The shelter OF the valleys, and doth keep
The fountains in their secret places cool;
And it is He who leadeth up the sun,
And ordereth the starry influences,
And tempered the keenness of the frost;
And, therefore, in the plenty Of the feast,
And in the lifting Of the cup, let Him
Have praises for the well-completed year.

A Strange Mob Performance.

NEW YORK, October ga Colum-
bia, s. G. special says; Some very
curious facts in connection with the
recent lynching of young Robert Ber-
rier for the murder OF his mother,in-
law, near Lexington, N. c., have just
come 10 light. A party who witnessed
the hanging says: Bsrrier was taken
from the Jail at 1880 and Immediately
carried to the outskirts of the DOWN
under large oak tree. Here the mob
stopped and asked the prisoner il he
was ready to die. Berrier said he
would be if he knew he would meet
his wife and babe In heaven. The mob
then informed him that he would be
allowed 10 prepare for death. About
this time a drummer, who YVES in
town, came upon the scene and asked
to be allowed to pray with the COM
demned man. His request was grant.
ed and he knelt down by the side of
Berrier and prayed fervently that God
would save his soul. During the prayer
many hearty "ameus" and such res
ponses as "Lord grant it," etc., went
up from the mob. For more than
three hours praying aud regular relig-
ious services were conducted. A few
minutes before midnight Berrier ex-
pressed his willingness 10 die. He was
then placed upon horse with "a rope
about his neck, aud then, as an appro-
pirate hymn was raised, the horse was
led from under him and the body left
in the air.
About the strangest thing of the
whole proceeding to cur mind is the
idea OF a drummer praying. He must
have had mother-in law himself.

lScientific American.
The corner stone of q large and mag
nificent building for the New York
World newspaper was laid on the 10th
of October with Interesting and appro-
pirate ceremonies. Several very able
addresses were made, among the
speakers being Mr.. Chauncey Dspew,
Mr., Hill, Governor of the State, and
others. Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer, the edi-
tor and proprietor Of tine World, was
unable to be present, owing to i'll.
health and absence froul the country,
but he sen, cablegram, which was
read, expressive Of lofty sentiments.
Among other things he says:

architect is popular favor; its moral
corner stone is love of Liberty and
Justice its every stone comes from
the people and represents public appro-
val of public services rendered.
"Ged forbid the vast army following
the standard of The World should in
this or future generations ever find 1t
faithless to those ideas and moral prin-
ciples to which alone 1t owes its life
and without which would rather
have it perish"
The ceremony of bestowing the final
touch to the corner stone was perform
ed by the little son of the owner, aged
four years, Joseph Pulitzer, Jr. If the
boy lives 10 attain manhood, it looks
now as if his Inheritance would be q

"Gosllng Marriages."

The medical journals don't always
deal with metaphysics and chemistry.
They hit the nail squareiy on the head
very often in dealing with problems of
social life, and Halls Journal Of Health
does this very thing when it says that
"nine-tenths of the unhappy marriages
are the result of green human calves
being allowed to run at large in socle
ETY. pastures without any yoke on
them, They marry and have chill
dren before they do moustaches. They
are father of twins before they own
TWO pairs of pants, and the little girls
they marry are old women before they
ere twenty years old. Occasionally
one of these gosling marriages turns
out alright but it is a clear case of
luck. II there was law against
young boys sparkling and marrying
before they have cat all their teeth, we
suppose the little rascals would evade
1t in some way. But there ought to be
a sentiment against 1t. 1t is time for
those bantams to think Of fiading a
pullet when they have raised money
enough to buy bundle of laths TO
build hen house. But they see a
girl who looks cunning, and they are
afraid there is not going to be enough
to 60 around, and then they begin TO
spark real spry, and before they are
aware of the sanctity of the marriage
relation, they are hitched for life, and
before they own a bedstead or cook
stove they have to get up in the mid
die Of the night and run for doctor,
so frightened that they run themselves
out of breath and abuse the doctor be-
cause he does not run too. And when
the doctor gets there, there is not linen
enough in the house 10 wrap up the
"baby.'

produced for three successive years,
1887 exceeding In corn and cotton the

reaching still to higher figures, and all
bringing good prices, the South would
be considered wonderfully favored il
these big crops alone were In all the
blessings which has been recently given
to IT. But to these are to be added the
greatest Industrial development which
tho world has ever seen, furnishing
