set forth in the old rhyme which runs:
Marry when the year is new.
Always loving, kind and true.
When February birds do mate

EMANCIPATION.

By Maltbie D. Babcock. Why be afraid of Death as though your
 life were breath? Death but anoints your eyes with clay,
 o glad surprise. Why should you be forelorn? Death only
 husks the corn. Hrbv should you fear to meet the thresh-i
 CT of the wheat? Is sleep a thing to dread? Yet sleeping
 you are dead Till you awake and rise, here or beyond
 the skies. Why should it be wrench to leave your
 wooden bench; Why not with happy shout run home
 when school is out? The dear ones left behind. o foolish one
 and blind. A day-and you will meet-A night-and
 you will greeti This is the death of Death, to breathe
 away a breath And know the end of strife, and taste the
 deathless life. And joy without fear, and smile with
 out tear. And work. nor care to rest, and md tho
 last the best.

tiurrah for Montgomery.

''Hurrah for Montgomery!" said a for mer Montgomerian last night.
 Always" responded another, heartily; but why hurrah especially at this mo- ment in the lobby of the hotel?"
 The hospital proposition of the Sisters of Charity. The Advertiser this morning reports subscriptions amounting to $s7S1, and that nobody who was approached refused to subscribe. That's grand-its just like good old Montgomery, always doing the right thing at the right time!
 You see, the Sisters of Charity prof fered, through the Rev. Father Savage, to build for Montgomery a charity hospi- tai costing s5O,OO0 to s6O, GOO, provided the citizens would donate a site for the building to cost about s1oO0o. Without any soliciting whatever s4o00 was sub scribed, in various sums, and then a committee of all the people took the mat ter up. That occurred just the other day. Already there is s67S1 subscribed. I don't believe there is another town of similar size in, the country which could have done so well. The $10,0O0 is absolutely sured, and the capital of Alabama will have one of the. noblest homes of charity in all the South.
 And all these subscriptions are being made in the face of rather violent opposi- ton of six or seven Protestant preachers of Montgomery, chief of whom is one who made insinuations against the hospital in Mobile, which he has failed to substan- tiate because they were entirely ground less.
