London Tid-Bits offered a prize
for the best answer to the question
"What is hOmet" Here are 6
few of the bright answers which
were received:
THE golden sitting in which
the brightest jewel is mother"
"a world of strife shut out, @
world of love shut in"
can arbor which shades when
the sunshine of prosperity becomes
too dazzling; n harbor where the
human bark finds shelter in the
time of adversely"
"Home is the blossom of which
heaven is the fruit"
''TLe only spot on earth where
the faults and failings of fallen
humanity are hidden under the
mantle of charity"
can abode in which the inmate.
the superior being called man.
can pay back at night with fifty
per cent interest every annoyance
that has met him in business dur
ing the day."
"The place where tho great are
sometimes small, and the small
often great"
"The fathers kingdom, the
children's paradise, the mothers
world"
"The jewel casket containing
the most precious of all jewels
domestic happiness"
"HOme is the central telegraph
office of human love, into which
run inumerable wires of affection.
many of which, though extending
thousands of miles, are never dis

A Heavy Vote in the South.

The Republicans have been
complaining for some time past of
the light vote cast in the South
ern States, declaring that it prov
ed that the negroes were disfran-
chised or bulldozed. The truth
of the matter, of course, was that
Democratic success being assured
a large number of Democratic
voters did not go to the polls, rs
they did not consider their bal
lots at all necessary.
The Republicans can no longer
make this complaint, for an unus-
ually large vote is being polled in
the Southern States this year; and
the increase does not benefit the
Republicans in the least. In
Georgia, for instance, at the late
State election, the total vote in
132 counties is officially returned
at POI, 461, with five counties yet
to hear from. The Democratic
majority is already 1852, and
will run up to 10000 for members
of the Legislature and some $4,000
for the Governor and other State
officers. The total vote is more
than twice the average cast at
State elections for some years
past; but, as we have before re-
marked, the Republicans will not
find much comfort in this, for they
pulled only 1862 in all Georgia,
the smallest vote ever polled by
any party in any State election.
The moral of this story is that
the heavier the vote in the South
the smaller the Republicans por-
ton of it. The Republican party
now recognizes that it made a
grave mistake when it stirred up
the South AMI brought out a full
vote by its threat of 1.-The force
bill" 1t can now no longer say
anything about the light vote cast
here. y. Democrat.

Single Beds.

III thoy were more numerous
than they are, Il great many peo-
pie would be better off. When
one is tired, cross, restless, out-of-
sorts, he or she ought to sleep al
one and not communicate by pro-
ximity the maladies that affect
him. The brute creatures when
sick go away by themselves till
they die or get over their trOu-
bles, and this instinct great
many human beings have; those
that have it are best if INDUCED in
it, not to the slightest degree of
neglect, however. Left to them
selves, they can compose their in
ternal discussions, recover their
lost equilibrium, and get back
their habitual rate OF ''vibration;'
whereas, if continually disturbed,
and "crossed,' and interrupted,
they are Il long time in getting
back to the normal.
Where two children in n family
must share the same room, in a
great many cases they would be
better off to have two single beds
rather than one wide double bed.
We can share great many things
with those we love, but solitude
clings to us from birth to death.
We come into tho world alone, we
must go out of it alone, in n Ger
tain important sense, and to got
and keep our bearing" we must
sometimes be left alone. 1t is
good that we should be. He who
has his bed to himself may be rs.
sentially alone for portion of the
twenty-four hours, may have him
self to himself, and adjust his in
ternal mechanism to his own Sd
tisfaction. For a great many
woes and ills, solitude is balm -
what we call solitude-for when
alone the immatcrial asserts itself,
the actual fades, the real is pres
ent with us.-N. Y. Advocate.

Clerk of Court.
The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1892-12-24

Among the many good things
gotten off the other night at the
railroad Inauguration supper the
remarks of w. A.. White about the
railroad having bridged "the muddy
chasm" which had SO long separated
Abbeville and N~ew'Iberia, struck us
as being particularly felicitous.
