In Darkest Webster.

A Swapping young swain came in
to town the other day IA huntin for
a pair o marriage license He was
greatly surprised when informed that
the paper would cost him one dollar
and was not prepared to put up this
amount. However, after ransacking
the town he managed to borrow dol
lar and secured the license. He was
then informed that minister would
tax him at least the same amount for
tying him to the young woman.
Then he began another search for
someone willing to help him out OF
this difficulty, but the money could
not be raised. The fellow offered as
security the hide of a coon which he
had freed as he came To town, and
would kill as he went back. He
'sdidn't know whether the preacher
would take coon skins or not, and
would like to have the money But
he could induce no one to loan, and
started after his coon. Webster

ON am Intimation Of Spring.

:. j. g., in New York Evening Sun.
30, gentle spring.
IT'S thus the poets sing
About this time of year
OF you, who are SO queer
So tickle, SO previous,
So changeable and devious,
In fact the very deuce
And worthy of abuse.
To-day you're here,
And then you disappear,
You lure US to discard
Our heavy underclothes;
And then it freezes hard
And nips each tender nose.
The weather sharps predictions
Are turned to simple fictions.
When south winds ought to blow
We wade knee-deep ia snow.
You are a fraud, delusion,
Just sent for our confusion;
You're always at the flood,
Your name Is Mud.

While holding i'm remembrance the
Pilgrim fathers, who set the example
of celebrating Thanksgiving Day, one
should mot forget Gen. George Wash
ington, who, by giving us country,
rendered 1T possible for us to make 1t
a National holiday.
Gen. Westinghouse home at Mount
Vernon, i'm Virginia, is open to the
public, everything being kept exactly
as his family left it.
The view grows mere beautiful
every step toward the house.
Everyone stops when the path leade
by small, plain brick building with
an arched gateway in front. On the
marble above it are the words:
"Wiihin this innloS,,,,a rnst tho -
mains of Gen. George Washington"
Looking through the iron bars one
sees the huge marble collins, each cut
from one solid block Of marble.
Over the door Of the tomb are writ
ten the words.
II am the resurrection and the life
He that beleveth in me, though he
were dead, yet shall he live"
One may feast the eyes ON The long
winding river and low hills, the
clouds and the trees that must have
delighted the eyes OF Washington
hundreds OF times There are espe-
cial trees, too, all around that claim
attention. Here is one planted by
Mrs. Cleveland, there one by the
Prince OF Wales, or, rather, to re-
place one he PLANTED, and another by
Dom Pedro Emperor of Brazil.
The beautiful mantel in the house
WINS carved in Italy and sent to Gen.
Washington us u present by a gentle
man i'm London. As it was coming
over, one day ship drew near the
one which was carrying it, and when
1T came close enough the terrible
black flag of the pirates was seen
floating from its mast II was no use
to try to escape. All on board the
merchant ship were captured, and all
they had was claimed by the pirates,
But when they found in the cargo OF
the ship this beautiful mantel adj
dressed to George Washington, so
great was the respect of these dread
full men for that name that they for
warded II to him as soon as they
could.
In the dining room one sees the
sidehoar that stood there when
Washington lived. the table he ate
from, the chairs he sat upon. In the
library are the books Washington
loved to read, and rest assured there
is mot much light reading among
them. There is the bedroom where
he died, and ON a table rests the open
Bible from which Mrs Washington
read to him. Above ii is the little
low, dark bedroom which Mrs. Wash.
ington always occupied, because
from It's little dormer window she
could keep in sight the resting place
of her beloved husband. Buffalo
