I would say to Xanthippe, that
being a novice in poetry I hope he
will pass my imperfections by as
containing more truth than poetry.
Eureka! Eureka! have at last dis
covered
Some "@onderful news" that taxed
my brain.
Long has my mind been puzzled, with
out alloy,
To learn why sin in man does reign.
AS his poor success was giving any
thing but joy,
Squire Boiand expired without re-
gret.
He had no need for priest or confessor,
Since all hopes were centered in his
successor.
Let's state some facts in spite ofdoubts
and.sneers,
Then tell me where they all do tend.
That "Lord of creation" man, fear,
Will feel very small when this l end.
The 'lot of man is labor" if he but obey
The Divine Injunction given our
primitive father,
But he shuns duty as prickly herb,
goes his way;..
, This prodigal heir of creation loafs,
labor is bother.
sThou shalt not kill" proud monopolist
of reason,
. Remember earth and her million
tribes bear your sin.
The whale, the minnow, the worm, the
~ gnat, die in its season,
And testify, with one sad voice, mans
power to win.
"Thou shalt not steal" he considers
droll bit of sentiment;
Read. the record of the courts, you
who would wonder.
That the wisest have their follies will
bear no argument;
Will you believe, if reiterated in
voices of thunder?
Xanthippe, you give the reason for a
course we condemn;
More follies, crimes and sins we have
not time to reveal;
None seem too great for the desired
reward of men,
Which'is to spend eternity with the
Queen of Shoel.

WHAT HE DOES.

The Wilkesboro Chronicle says that
MAJOR w. A. GUTHRIE, one of the most
prominent republicans in North Carolina
and who was nominated for associate
justice of the supreme court by the third
party, has written a ringing card an
nouncing his intention TO vote for CLEyE-
LAND against HARRISON, on account of
the force bill issue. He shows from the
record that the republican platform of
1860, upon which LINCOLN was elected
president land the democratic platform of
1892, are similar in intent, in regard to
federal interference with state authority.
He says all other questions are secondary
to this question of the right of home rule,
and asks his third party and republican
friends 70 stand up against such legisla.

The Largest AerOlite.

What is believed to be the largest
a~erOlite ever known to have fallen is ~
ing in the Caspian sea-, a short dis
lance from the peninsula of Apsheron.
The aerOlite made a terrific noise as it
rushed through the air with incredible
speed, and the white hot mass made a
light that illuminated the country and
sea about for a great distance. Those
who saw it were were struck dumb with
CONSERVATION. When it struck the
water immense clouds of steam arose,
and the kissing could be heard for a
great distance. Huge masses of water
were thrown upward, and the sight to
those who were not frightened was a
most beautiful one. .
So enormous is the aerolite that it
projects twelve feet above the water,
and save for it's fused black crust, which
gives it the appearance of having been
vanished. it has every appearance of be-
ing one Of the usual rocky formations
met with along the coast. Scientists
are deeply interested in the phenomenon,
and a number of them are making
preparations to visit the peninsula to
examine the aerOlite.-Cable Letter.

The dimensions OF the carpet are 81

of exquisite delicacy and freedom Of

which spring sixteen cartouches-four

from two Of these again are, as 1T were,
suspended and hanging in the direction

the most extraordinary detail of all is

bearing its inwoven inscription, which
is thus translated: Il have no refuge in

While we know nothing personally
