FALLING LEAVE- 8 .
T :ov arc fafiing, sl-’wl/ falli:rj..
Ta'ck up »» '**.« -forest side—
c eV ,. r rd tiom t‘e noble branches
Where thoy waved in beauteous pride
n , 1 cv sre faliii g iu the valleys
Where the early violets spring,
And the birds in sunny spriDgtiine
Firs', their dn’eent music rng.
Trey are falliog, sadly falling.
Close beside our collage door—
Palo end faded, like tho loved ones
Th.' t have gone forevermore
They are fallirg, a^d the sunbeams
ghi-c in beauty S'-ft around ;
Yes. the. faded leaves are falling—
Fallirg cn the grassy mound.
They are falling on the streamlet
Where tho silver waters flow,
An ! upon it placid bosom
Onward with the water3 go.
They are falling in the churchyard
Where our kindred sweetly sleep—
Where the idle winds of summer
S-ifily o'er tho loved oneo sweep.
They ere failing, ever failing.
When the autumn breezes aigh-
Whon ibe stars in beauty glisten
Bright upon the midnight sky.
They are falling when the tempest
Moans like Ocean’s hollow roar—
When the tuneless winds and biliows
Sadly sigh forevermore.
Thov are falling, they are falling.
While our saddened thoughts sti 1 go
To the sunny days of childhood,
In the dreamy long ago.?
And their faded hues remind us
Of the blighted hopes and dreams —
Faded like the falling leaflet
fast upon the icy stteama.
Matrimonial Advice
Marry in your own religion.
Never both be angry at once.
Never taunt with a past mistake.
Let a kiss be the prelude of a rebuke.
Never allow a request to be repeated.
Let self-abnegation be the habit of
both.
A good wife is the greatest earthly
blessing.
“I forgot,” is never an acceptable ex
cusc.
If you must criticise, let it be done
lovingly.
Make a marriage a matter of moral
judgment.
Marry into a family which you have
long known.
Never make a remark at the expense
of the other.
Never talk at one other, either alone
or in company.
Give your warmest sympathies for
each other’s trials.
If one is angry, let the other part the
lips only for a kiss.
Neglect the whole world beside, rath
er than one another.
Never speak loud to one another un
less the house is on fire.
Let each strive to yield oftener to the
wishes of the other.
Always leave home with loving
words, for they may be the last.
Marry into different blood and tem
perament from your ow"
Never deceive, for the heart, once
misled, can never trust wholly again.
It is the mother who moulds the
character and fixes the destiny of the
child.
Never find fault unless it is perfectly
certain a fault has been committed.
Do not herald the sacrifices you make
to each other’s tastes, habits, or prefer
ences.
Let-all your mutual accommodations
be spontaneous, whole-souled, and free
as air.
The very felicity is in the mutual
cultivation of usefulness.
Consult one another in all that come3
within the experience, observation, or
sphere of. the other.
A hesitating or grum yielding to the
wishes of the other always grates upon
a loving heart.
They who marry for trait3 of mind
and heart will seldom fail of perennial
springs of domestic enjoyment.
Never reflect on a past action which
was done with a good motive, and with
the best judgment at the time.
The beautiful in heart is a million
times of more avail, as securing domes
tic happiness, than the beautiful in
person.
They who marry for physical char-
teristics or external considerations will
fail of happiness.
Gocd Words About Women.
“There are but two 6ne things in the
world,” says Malherbe;—“women aud
roses.”
Lessing exclaims: Woman is the
masterpiece of the universe.
Bourbon says: The pearl is the im
age of purity, but woman is purer than
the pearl.
Thackery writes: A good women is
the loveliest flower that blooms under
heaven.
Balzac says : Even the errors of wo
man spring from her faith in the good.
Voltaire declares: All the reason
ing of men are not worth onesentiment
of woman.
Lamartine asserts: Women have
more Apart ard imagination than
men.
Otway exclaims : Oh ! woman! love
ly woman ! Nature made thee to temper
men. We had been brutes without
you.
All of them might add there is noth
ing so irue as a good woman’s love;
nothing so sublime or so constant as

Election News-
New York, November 7.—The fol
lowing is the total vote in this city.
Beach, Democrat, for Secretary of State,
77,188; Churchill, Bepubl-ean, for Sec
retary of State, 47,380; Lowe. Tammany,
for register, 64,186; Hess, Republican
and anti-tammany, 60,132.
The Nun, this morning, gives the prob
able complexion of the Legislature in this
State as follows: Senate, Democrats 16,
Republicans 16; Assembly, Democrats
67, Republicans 62, Independents 1.
The World estimates the Democratic
majority in the State from 15,000 to 20,-
000. Including the city vote Olcott’s
majority is 45,000 to 50,000. The Sen
ate is doubtful, perhaps a tie. The As
sembly is 8 to 12 Democratic. The ma
jority in the city for State ticket, 30,000
for Beach, 43,000 for Olcott.
The Tribune estimates that the State
has gone Democratic by 15,000 majority.
The Senate probably has a Republican
majority of 2 and the Assembly will be
undoubtedly Democratic.
Philadelphia, Nov. G.—Incomplete
returns from 43 counties, together with
full returns from the city and county of
Philadelphia, give a Democratic gain on
the vote for State Treasurer of 20,644.
The same counties last year gave a ma
jority of 10,993 for Hayes.
Washington, November 5.—4s the
funeral of Senator Morton takes place
to-day all the Government Departments
and the offices of the District Govern
ment are closed.
Col. Blacktu n of Ky., declines the

The Yale of Bose 1 .
A terrible picture of woe in the once
beautiful ‘‘Vale of Roses,” near Schipka
Pass, is painted by a correspondent of the
London Tones:
All the way from Schipka to Yeni
Saghra, at which place we took the rail,
tne air is polluted with the remains of
the killed. The bodies of men, women
and children are to be met with in all
stages of decomposition at the roadsides,
in the corn-fields and gardens, on the
banks of streams and in the beds of riv
ulets. Some hundreds were choking the
shallow river within a quarter of a mile
from where we camped at Yeni Saghra.
Desolation and ruin appeared along the
whole way. The remains of formerly
prosperous villages, which it was impos
sible to pitch tent even Dear, rippling
mountain streams in which our horses
refused to drink, the howling of wolves
around U3 at night, brought down ear
lier than usual by the horrid feasts pre
pared for them (the largest I have ever
seen lay dead, evidently recently- shot,
by the side of the road) not far from
Yeni Saghra, and, worse, the occasional
shrieks from human beings, followed by
solitary rifle reports, which made one
shudder more than the damp night air,—
all thpse sights and sounds went to form
one great horrible phantasmagoria,
whicn none of us are likely to live long
enough to remember without pain.
Some Washington specials represent P 0 ” 1
Senator Blaine’s condition as serious.
Col. French, Se r geant-at-Arms had
the Senate and its approaches tastefully
decorated with emblems of mourning
for Morton.
Evarts, Secretary of State, desires
$225,000 for the Paris Exhibition, and
that the bill should provide for exhibits
from the interior tc the seaboard.
The Committe of Foreign Relations
of the House will continue its sessions
until some bill is matured.
Mr. Hewit, who is said to have govern
ed Mr. Tilden during the Presidential
campaign, championing the measure.
Gen. Shelly, of Ala., introduced i
bill to appropriate the alleged illega
cotton tax to educational purposes in
in the respective States.
St. Louis, Nov. 5.—The Journal
Agriculture and Farmer of this city, for
warded to Mr. Buckner, chairman of the
Committee on Banking and Curreuey,
farmers’ petition measuring 127 feet in
length, and containing 5,573 names.
The memorialists ask for a financial sys
tem independent of a metallic basis.
They insist that the whole theory of
specie resumption is unphilosophical, and
unsound ; that values being relative the
only thing which can be said to be
standard of value is necessity, the mean
relation ?f commodities ; that money is
simply a creature of law, an instrument
of a commerce, a standard of payment.
They claim that those who hold the real
collateral, as improved farms, must have
the privilege of borrowing money from
the public treasury on equal terms to those
who hold bonds.
Havana, Nov. 5.—A decree dated
November 3, has been issued declaring
all estates ruined during the war, aDd
in the way of reconstruction, shall be
free from contribution for five years
from date of decree. Every new estab
lishment and all new property acquired
in the cities or villages cf the Central
and Oriental departments will have
the same privilege, and all industries
and commerce in said department new
ly established will be exempted for three
years from all [taxation. All female
cattle Spanish or foreign, important into
Cuba with the exclusive object of rais
ing strock will be duty free for two
years. Instructions for the fulfilment
of this decree will be given at the re
spective centres of the Island. The
decree is received with much satisfac
tion.
London, Oct. 5.—A Paris d-spatch to
the Times says the returns in the de
partmental elections as far as known,
show that 28 Republicans and 9 Con
servatives were elected to the Council
General, and the Republicans have
eight new members. The Duke de
Broglie’s defeat by the Bonapartists
will doubtless create a great sensation
and considerable on the decision of the
Government.
Memphis, Nov. 6.—Specials from
various points in north Mississippi Estate
that the election was very quiet and
generally a light vote was polled.
Trenton. Nov. 6, midnght.—Mc

“Sertingly, sir,” replies the waiter,

The inspector finishes his dinner

“Ask the boss to step this way a min

“What for?”
“I wish to notify him to appear in

partridges out of season.”
“Oh, I guess it ain’t worth while

A mite of a boy, poorly dressed and
barefooted, was wandering around the
Central Market yesterday in a chilly,
hungry way. A prominent citizen,
well dressed and carrying a big cane,
caught sight of the boy and loudly
called out:
“Here, you—come here 1”
The boy approached, aDd the citizen
demanded:
“Where are your shoes, sir ?”
“Hain’t got none.”
“Aren’t your feet cold ?”
“Yes, sir.”
“If I gave you a nickle what would
you do with it?”
“What was left after getting my
Bhoes.out of it .I’d invest in wind!” de
murely replied the boy.
He didn’t get any to invest, but he
was not disappointed. He never knew
