TRIBUTE TO WOMAN. “More human more divine than wo—- In truth, half human, half divide— In woman when good stars agree To temper with their beams benign The hour of her nativity. The fairest flower the green earth bears, Bright with the dew and light of heaven. Is, of the double life she wears, The type in grace and glory given By Soil and sun in equal shares. Truesist rof tho Son of Man : ** True sister of the Son of God, What marvel that she lends the van Os those who in the path he trod. Still bear tho cross and wear the ban 1 If God be in the sky and sea, And live in light and ride the storm, Then Qod is God, altough he be Enshrined within a woman's form. And claims glad reverence from me, So, as I worship Him in Chjist, And in the forms of Earth and Air, I worship him imparadised. . And throned within her bosom fait Whom vanity hath cot enticed. 0 ! woman—mother ! Woman—wife ! The sweetest names that language knows Thy breast, with holy motives rife, With holies; affection s glows, Thou queen, tiiou angel of my life. Noble and fine in his degree Is the best man my heart receives ; And this my heart’s supremest plea For him ; he feels, acts lives, belitves, Asd soems, and is, tho likest thee. 0 men ! 0 brothers ! Well I know That with her nature in our souls Ts born the elemental woe,— The brutal impulse that controls And drives, ordrage, the godlike low. Ambition, appetite and pride —— These throng and thurall the hearts of men These' plant the thorns, and pierce tho side Os him whe, in our sou s again, Is spit upon, and crucifled. ) The greed for gnu, ‘me tnirs fuf poWef, The lust that blackens while it hums : Ah I these the whitest souls deflour 1 And on. or all ot theso by turns, Rob man of his divinest power! Yet man, who shivers like a straw Before temptations lighest broeze, Assumes the master—gives the law To her who, on her bended knees Resists the black-winged thunder flaw ! To him who deems her weak and vain, And boasts his own exceeding might, She clings through darkest fortune fain j Still loyal, though the ruffians smite; Still true, though crime his hands distain 1 And is this weakness 1 Is it net The strength of God, that loves and bears Though he be slighted or forgot In damning crimes, or driving cares And olosests clings in darkest lot Not many lriends my life has mado ; Few have I loved, und few are they Who in my bund their hearts havo laid j And those were women. lam gray, But never have I been betrayed. These words—this tribute for the sake Os truth to God and womankind ! Theso—That my he.,rt may cease to ache W ith love and gratitude confined, . And burning frjm my lips to b-oak ! These—to that sisterhood of grsoo That numbers in its sacred list My mother, risen to her place ; My _wife but yester-uiorning kissed, And folded in Love's last embrace !. This tribute of a love profound As ever moved the heart of man, To t hose to whom my life is bound. - To her in whom my life began, And her whose love my life hath crowned ! Immortal Love j Thou still bast wings To lift me to those radiant fields, Where music waits with trembling strings, And Verse her happy numbers yields, And all the soul within me Bings. .

Somebody*—a woman ot course—inquires why, when Eve was manufactured from the rib, a servant was’nt m ide at the same time to wait on b< r ? Somhbody else—a wo man, we imagine—replies In the following strain. . Because Adam never came whining to Eve with a ragged .decking to be darned collar to bellowed on, or a glove to mere ‘‘right away quick now.” Because he never read tho newspanars until the sun got dotfn behind the and and then stretch ing himselt out. yjiwncd out, “ain’t supper most ready mi dear ?” Not he. He made the fire, and hung the keltic over it himself we’ll venture, and pulled the radishes, peeled the potatoes, and did everything else he ought to, He milked the cows, fed the chickens, and looked afteiahe chickens him-. seif. He nejer brought homo half a dozen : friends to dinner when Eve hhd’ut fresh] pomegiai.itus, and the Mango season was j over, IJe nfcver stayed until 11 o'clock to a ward meeting, hurrahing for oat-and out candidates and then scold because poor Eve was sitting up and crying inside the gates He never played billiards, rolled tenpins and drove fast hoiscs, nor choked poor Eve ] with tobacco smoke, Ho never loafed a- i round corner groceries while Eve was rock) ing little Cain’s cradle at home, .in short. ■' he did not think she was especially created for the purpose of waiting on him, and was n<st under the impression that it disgraced a man to lighten a woman's cares a little, That's the reason that Eve did not need a hired girl ; and with it was the reason that her fair descendants did. A New Plant. The Macon Telegraph says : “The attention of the public, and especially tho planters ha, been directed of late to a strange plant that has made Its appearance since the close of the war. It appears te boa dwtrf clover, and has spread rapidly throughout tho State, and. it is said, the entire Southern States. It is very thick set, covering the earth, as it wero, with a beautiful carpet of green. It ia much relished by cattle, and is a complete exterminator of Berm-da, not sedge, and ether grasses. In Middle Georgia it is very abundant, and attract* much attention. It was not seen before the war, und where it came from is a subject of interesting inquiry among planters as.d b.ta nist3. j The Lesson of The Hour. Will not our people-wo menu the people of Georgia-leant a les* son of wisdom from tho lute elec tions ? Will thav not take new heart and hope from a victory whc-so importance has not been ap* proached in the annajs of political warfare ? If tho Brave and patri otic men of Fennsy 1 vnnia and Ohio had taken counsel of tneir fears ; if they had admitted lhe strength n l truth of ilyj baa-t t iat radical' Dm was to rule J,his country forev er, the news from the North and West whicn has flashed new life and courage to the country would not havc*been im ' If they had IsaSrified t' _. .ueipries to exptdi ,olll}' ,f- ... reed to aid iu-the des jtru-.d: ‘ >; of their own liberties and j the Constitution'of the country, in order to escape threatened ills; I had stifled evory instinct of man* (hood, and sacrificed the last ves jtageol tiicir self-respect, then indeed would the luturo ol ! this Repaid ic have been jas black as negro supretncncy i could possibly have made it.

The white men of tho !North have said that they will not have the nigger to rule over them they any l«:tterthan the men. [of tho South? Was the danger| i from a few thousand nigger voters [there greater than from a few mil— 'lion here ? Arc they cudowed with | a-ibgdor courage or a more sensi tive honor than the men of the ronth ? Let our people ponder’ upon those interrogatories, learn wisdom' from the past, arid take courage /torn the future.— Georgia. —Of all tnc Southern States says the Wilmington Star, Georgia takes the lead in genuine •tcuiorpriso. She well deserves the ! high and proud title of “Empire) v .. t:«■. ’ * Her people are britnf’ull of j I State pride and energy, .-he has, more cottou factories, bigger news 1 papers ; more thriving cities."and , ;Ore progressive spirit than any other sisters. If the political af fairs of this country ever become settled. Georgia will outstrip all t competition. Her people have gone to work, since the war, with ja determination to build tip her j waste places and make her all, aye more, than she ever was. We ad~ ■ mirc their pluck.— Nort.i Carolina |has the natural advantages, but ishe needs in her population much >of the levea of enterprise and pro* igross. Georgia sets her a worthy example.

A Lesso n to I)Es pots .—lt will be seen that Col Gilbert, says the Macon Telegraph who led a party of soldiers in the distructihu of a jnewspaper office, in Arkansas, a 'short time ago, has been lined a 'thoumd dollars and reduced to a 'Captaincy, taking liis place at t;.e bot tom oi the list. There are other raiders against the piess in the i*out,h of hitrher military dignity, who, allowed to licak up its busi ness by arbitrary edicts, and eveaywith as guilty as Gilbert, and yet do all with impunity.

The boy was gone all day, j returned with the bag unopened, which he (lumped on the floor, say* ; ing .

Two or three follows n«!ced mo what I had in my bag, and I told them none of" their business what it was. “ The boy is not unlike hundreds |of merchants who will promptly call him a fool for not tolling what he had to sell. They are !actually doing the same thing on ja much larger scale than did that iboy by not advertising their i business. A editor says ho would as soon try to go to sea on a shingle, make a ladder ol fog, chase a streak of lightning through a crabapple or chard, swim up the rapids of Nia gara, raise too dead, stop tho tongue of an old inaid. or act Lake Krie on fire with a wet match, as to stop lovers from getting married when they take it into their heads to do 80.

That's What's (he Matter’ with Them.- Thc splinters of the old, effete Constitution, stick in the livers of certain Senators, and hinder their rest at night.’ So said an old sinner and hypocrite, Thad Stevens. These splinters stick in die Radi cal body, so they can’t sit, and can’t stand. Still less can thev run. as witness Maine and California. One of the South Carolina reg istrars says that when the negroes come to ‘receive die elective Iran* chise ” they generally bring along bags or baskets to put it in.
