TOPEKA. Dec 9.-T. w. Pelham

The MORTGAGES nave not proved

As To DOwries.

The New York World and the
North American Review have raised
the question '.Should American
brides receive dowries?" If this
matter were left to vote of the men
it would cause just such division
as there is now in kansas-the
young against the Old crowd. The
yonng meh would be in favor of the
dowrles to man and the old fellows
would be against granting them.
There is little chance that the Amer
leans will adopt the English costume
of making settlements upon their
girls when they are married. 1t
may de all right, in England but it
looks little to mercenary for our
more romantic people. American
girls are enough of themselves.
Any one who dosen't want to take
them empty handed dosen't know a
good thing when he sees it and the
.riri is better off without him.

To save such wretches as you and !,
And those tender hands were often pierced
On that dread cross on calvary.
=. Those feet were also driven fast,
By nails TO that rugged tree,
And in his side a wound he bears.
Received on the cross in dark Judea.
Now let us from our tasks abstain,
And worship him, to day;
Who. :.sufferee death that VT might live,
Who off for US did pray.
Can we not now one day afford,
To celebrate his birth,
A nation who cannot this observe,
That nation should be swept from earth
= We all look forward to this day,
With streaming eyes and longing heart
Fer gifts from parents and from friends
Nor think OF one from earth apart.
Who unto US this day did give,
By his own birthat Bethlehem;
He was the lovlest sweetest child,
He was of all the purest gem;
Whom false kings did seek to kill,
Through jealousy and fear
That he should their kingdoms take
And leave themin dishonor here.
He presents us freedom bought with blood
Which he gladly gave for us all,
The only perfect man that's been
Upon this earth since Adams fall.
When from friends and kindred far away,
Sit you not down and grieve,
Think of and worship him who gave,
The blessed Christmas eve..
