Sitting at the window As the daylight dies, And the blush of even Deepens o’er the skies, Sitting till the crimson Fadeth into dusk, And from gardens cometh Eglantine and musk; Sitting idly musing Till the stars appear One by one in Heaven, Beautiful and clear ; Building airy castles In the dizzy height, Dreaming of a future Only fair and bright: Hears she not her lover Pass the garden through ? Sees she but the shining Stars in depths of blue? Lo, lie comes and standetk At the open door, And his shadow falleth On the moonlit floor. Looks he with emotion On her upturned face, Lovely as Madonna’s In its saintly grace, flow his strong heart yearneth, He alone can tell; Pausing there a moment Ere lie breaks the spell, Near her now he stealeth, Silently bends o’er; And two shadows meet Upon the moonlit floor, Who will dare to listen What those two will say ? Leave them at the window, Gently come away. Stick to One Thing - . “Unstable as water thou sbalt not excel,” is the language of the Bible. Whoever expects to succeed in any undertaking, must enter into it with an earnest and hearty will to do his best. When a trade or profession is chosen, obstacles, be they large or small, must not ho allowed to stand in the way of mastering that trade or profession. However much we may depreciate the old time custom of indenturing apprentices, the system in its practi cal results operated almost always for the lasting good of the appren tice. Generally it insured to him a good trade and a wholesome disci pline that fitted him for success in business. At the present time, very many young men undertake to acquire a trade, and after a brief trial abandon it, because there are unpleasant du ties to he performed, and obstacles to he overcome. They consider themselves accountable to no one, and go and come at the bidding of caprice, or an unsettled, uneasy mind. The result of this is lo send out into the world young men who have not half learned their trades, of unstable character, who drift from pillar to post, and who succeed in nothing hut strolling along the highways of life, melancholy wrecks of me;;. We would earnestly entreat every young man, after he has chosen his vocation, to stick to it; don’t leave it because hard blows are to he struck or disagreeable work performed.— The men who have worked their way up to wealth and usefulness do not belong to the shiftless and unstable class, but may he reckoned among those who took oft’ their coats, rolled up their sleeves, conquered their prejudices against labor, and manfully bore the heat and burden of the day. Whether upon the old, worn out farm where our fathers toiled, dili gently striving to bring back the soil to productiveness; in the machine shop or factory, or in the thousand other business places that invite hon est toil and skill, let the motto ever be : Perseverance and industry.— The baby training of the nursery was good in it* place, hut it wou’t answer all the demands of an active life. This is not a baby world. We must expect to be jostled and knock ed about in the stern conflict, and run over, if we are not on the look out and prepared to meet the duties of life with a purpose not to shirk them, but to fulfill them. A young man with a good trade or honorable profession, as he goes forth into the world with bis mind made up to stick to his trade or pro session, is not obliged to ask for many favors. He will hew his wav to suc cess, while the unstable and shiftless will grow tired, despair and fail.— Catholic Standard.

Lawrenceville, Ga-, Wednesday, August 7, 1872. Gov. Smith’s Letter of Accep tance. Atlanta, July 24, 1872. Hon. James M. Smith, Atlanta ; Dear Sir —The undersigned have been appointed a committee by the Democratic Convention, this day as sembled here, to inform you that you have been nominated by a unanimous vote of the convention as the Democratic candidate for the office of Governor of Georgia. We herewith enclose a copy of the resolutions adopted by the conven tion. It gives us great pleasure to make this communication, and to assure you that your brief administration received the cordial indorsement of the convention, as it had already pre viously received the approval of the people. Permit us to express the hope of our common constituents and of our selves personally that you will accept the re nomination so heartily and unanimously tendered. With the highest respect for your official and ptivate character, and, with a God speed to you and the good work you are now performing, we remain, dear sir, with great re spect, your friends and obedient servants, James M. Mobley, Julian Hartbidoe, Wm. E. Simmons, Ira A. Foster, Warren Aiken, Committee. Atlanta, Ga , July 29, 1872. Messrs. James M. Mobley, Julian Ilartridge, Wm. E. Simmons, Ira A. Foster, and Warren Aikin, Committee : Gentlemen — l have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of the 24th instant, informing me that the State Demo cralie Convention had nominated me unanimously as their candidate for the office of Governor. For this great honor I cannot com mand language in which to express iny gratitude. The unanimity and heartiness with which the nomina tion was made, add another to the many obligations already resting up on me, to serve with all possible zeal and faithfulness a people who have so honored and trusted me. The resolutions adopted by the convention have been carefully con. sibered, and I take pleasure in stating that the principles therein enunciated meet with my warm approval. The re-aftiimance of “the unchan geable doctrine that this is a Union of States, and that the indestructibil ity of the States, of their rights, and of their equality with each other, is an indispensiblo part of our political system,” is a pledge on the part of the convention that the Democracy of Georgia will continue to adhere to the principles of Constitutional Gov ernment. These great fundamental principles of our Federal system should never he abandoned. And yet, to use tho language of oue of the resolutions, I fully “recognize the exigences of the times which sug gested and secured the nomination by the Democratic party at Baltimore of Horace Greeley and B. Gratz Brown, as candidates for President and Vice-President of the United States, and regard their election as conducive to the preservation of the rights of the States, to local self government, and the protection of the individual liberty of tho citizens.” It wou'd be uncandid in me not to say that I should have been glad if this exigency had nol been upon us. The power of naming the candidates, however, was specifically lodged by tho party in the National Convention. That convention, like a court of the last resort, is tho highest party tri bunal in the -land, and beyond it there is no other or further appeal, without going outside of the party. This latter course I cannot adopt. I cannot separate myself from my people. Nay, more, I would stand by them, even when in the wrong, rather than give the enemies ot Government my countenance and support. The National Convention having nominated candidates for the l’resi denev and Vice-Presidency, and tho Slate" Convention having recognized and accepted these candidates, I shall not permit myseli to call in question either the wisdom or patriotism which directed the choice made by the one, or the acceptance and indorsement accorded by the other. The Demo cratic party, with Greeley and Brown as its candidates, is infinitely prefer able, in my judgment, to any other political organization of the country. I shall give tho Baltimore nominees, therefore, my earnest and zealous support, believing that in their elec tion the cause of honesty and consti- “COMING EVENTS CAST THEIR SHADOWS BEFORE!” tutional government will achieve a triumph over fraud, corruption and usurpation. I may add that, since my accession to office, I have had but little time to bestow upon national affairs. We have a great work before us here in Georgia, sufficient to engage the best efforts of every patriot in the State, and I have given my hand and heart to that work. To coibpleteihis work successfully, it is necessary that we preserve Lire integrity of the Demo cratic party here at home. It is nec essary that we be united, and zealous and forbearing, slow to condemn our brethren, or to magnify differences upon matters of iniuor concern. II we but pursue this course the good work we have in hand will have been finished at no distant day. Mean while, let us hope that the great and powerful party to which we belong will be able, witli the aid of liberal and patriotic men from other politi cal organizations to accomplish the same beneficent revolution in our national affairs, that we have already effected here in Georgia. With the highest appreciation of the honor conferred upon me, and with many thanks for tho kind terms employed by you in communicating the action of the convention, I accept the nomination, with a pledge that, if elected, 1 shall to the best of my ability, discharge tho duties of the great trust placed in my hands by a confiding people. Very truly, James M. Smith. How an Arkansas Magistrate Gratified his Fancy for a Fat ’Possum. In our neighboring city of Helena a “gemman of color” named Moore, who rejoices in the double distinction of being a magistrate and of having a weakness concerning the quadruped known as ’possum. Just across the river, in Tunica county, resides an other “cnllud gemman,” who, while not a magistrate, is none the less soft on the ’possum question, llis name is Clem. Clem has a trained, fat ’possum which follows him around like a dog. Having some business in Helena recently, lie cros-ed over there accompanied, as usual, by his pet companion, Meeting ’Squire Moore on oue of the boulevards ot that metropolis he exchanged with him greetings of the day, when the follow ing conversation ensued : ’Squire Moore—Look yere, Clem, w’at you take for dat yere 'possum ? Clem—Wal, Squagli, I don’t earu to sell him, hut if you want him I’ll let you hav him fur live dollars. ’Squire M.—Git out nigga; I’ll gub you wun dollar. Clem—Can’t sell him for dat, nohow. Saying which Clein went his way dowu tho boulevard, the ’possum, whose sleekiness attracted the.eye of the magistrate, trotting along gently in the rear. The ’Squire looked non plussed for a moment hut seeing a policeman or constable in the distance, his face suddenly brightened, and lie struck an attitude of happy reflection. Calling to him, the minion of the law, he said • “Arrest dat niggah wid de ’possum, and brung bofe into my ooort at once !” The minion aforesaid did as or dered, and soon Clem and his pos sum trembled in the presence of the mighty Moore. “Clem,” said the magistrate “you’s accused of being drunk and disor derly. Wat’s yuse got to say fur yunelff” Clein stammered his innocence and protested against the charge. “No vuse talking, Clem,” said the magistrate, “dis yere court neber makes a mistake, and isn’t gwine to be fooled in dese premises.” Saying which the learned expo nent of tho law turned to the greasy looking ebony statue in one corner, and said:— “Mister Klerk, dis darkey am fined fibe dollars and costs, for drunk, ’tox ieation, and breech of de peace.” Clem said he didn’t have the mou ey, and asked permission to cross tho river and get it. The magistrate objected, but final ly consented on condition that Clem would leave “de ’possum” as secuiity till his return. And that’s how ’Squire Moore, the black jurist of Helena, got his pus sura.— Memphis Avalanche. -l■ > ■ “Death,’’ says a Santa le paper, “with fleshless knuckles, rapped at the door of Mrs. J. N. B.’s soul, and obedient to the inexorable call, the spirit of that loved woman floated up to its Creator, leaving her husband, children and triends to mourn over her mortal casket.” B. Asliful’s First Offer. BY JOSKm E. BADOER, ,!R. Evidently something unpleasant had occurred to thus disturb the un usual calm and placid Mr. B. Ashful. He rubbed and polished the lens of his speotables, placed them astride his nose upside down, wiped the per spiration from his rosy, shining coun tenance, and again picked op tho morning paper. Yes, there it was, staring him full in the face, with the name “Benjamin Ashful'’ beneath it in huge capitals. Mr. B. Ashful was not a man to become duly excited without good cause therefor; indeed, he was rather prone to take life easily, and in his case this course had been crowned with entire sticcees Ho was a nice, jolly-looking, plump personage, rath er small, to be sure, hut then “valua hie goods come in small packages.” He was comfortably wealthy, in a good business, owned a fine mansion up town, and, in fact, was a most tempting prize, in the estimation of all the young ladies of an unceitain age of his acquaintance, for, sad to relate, he was a bachelor, at the age of some forty odd years. But what had so excited him now was this : A friend, Asa Drake, had dropped into the cosy little office for a mo ment that morning in high spirits, and began cordially congratulating Mr. B. Ashful upon his courage in thus acting, hoping he would soon meet with a congenial spirit, winding up with something about wedding cake and bridal favors. Finally ho explained his incompre hensible allusions by pointing out an advertisement in a conspicuous part of the Busy Bee. Mr. B. Ashful’s eyes dilated with horror as he pe rused this article, and, for the first time since h : s long vanished boyhood, he thought “had word” aloud. This was the— NOTICE. —Tho undersigned, be ing tolerably good looking, educated, etc., with a fiir share of this world’s goods, and a heart overflowing with love, desires a wife— one on the s in ny side of forty, who does not smoke, chew, or snuff, preferred. Proposals may he handed in at this place of business until one week from date. BENJAMIN ASIIFUL. Then followed his tdace of business in full. Now, when wo consider that the one great bane of Mr. B. A.’s life was tho sight of a woman —that lie had been known to remain at his office, almost perishing for supper tliat was spoiling at home, until long after dark, from dread of having to reply to the sweet smile and bow of Miss Melissa I’enngrah, his next door neighbor, who nightly sat upon her front veranda, lying in wait for his approach, as the poor fellow felt as sured — we can imagine in some slight degree the merchant's sensa lions at leading the above. Yes; Mr. B. A. was bashful, very bashful, where the fair sex were con cerned, although otherwise as brave and self-possessed as a lion. It was a fault, we grant you, and when car ried to excess, as in his case, a griev ous fault; hut it arose from the best of motives. Mr. B. A.’s heart was very tender, and, big as it was, respect and admi ration for every woman filled it to overflowing. Ho looked upon them as almost essential beings, and, there fore, too precious and sacred for him to dare love, although his disposition was such that ho would have made an excellent husband and father.— lie would never have been “short, iny love,” or hurried remorselessly past the seductive shop windows where hung “that love of a bonnet’ were his wife along ; not he ! And then, although sole master in his bojse, he was so neat and tidy. Ho never left his clothes, or boots lying around loose upon the table or mantle piece; nor did he to«s soiled paper collars, cigar stumps or empty bottles at raudom, for others to col lect ; but exery thing was as trim and methodical as tho room of a maiden lady of half a century. And when he wished to smoke— which was quite frequently, for Mr. B. A. was very fond of a choice cigar —he would seek the back porch, sit ting close to* tho edge, so that the ashes might not soil the floor. Just as he had perused for good ness knows how many times the dreadful advertisement, a sharp deci sive rap sounded at the door of his cosy little office. (Quickly turning his head, the merchant beheld peer ing at him through the glass door, with a peculiarly triumphant expres sion—or was it merely his distorted fancy ? - the sharp, vinegary features [!?2 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. I of hia bugbear, Miss Melissa Penn grab. Could it be that—yes, it must I She subscribed for the Busy Bee and had doubtless read the fatal notice! Springing from his chair, Mr. B. A. advanced with the insane purpose of bolting the door, bnt he was a little too late. It swung open in his face, and Miss M. P. entered with a smiling countenance. “Mr. Benjamin Ashful, 1 believe?” “At yonr servico, ma’am,” he groaned, rather than spoke, motion ing her to a chair, while he retreated to the further end of the room. The lady gracefully sank down and already began removing her gloves, looking down at the neatly carpeted floor. Was she seeking out some spot upon which to kneel, while pouring forth the sweet confession? The merchant groaned anew, and wiped his damp face, for this was what he thought, or his reading, led him to suppose that a declaration could bo delivered in no other posi tion. “Very pleasant weather we’re hav ing, Mr. Ashful, ’’ murmured his visi tor. “Very ah !” “I’ve called upon a very delicate matter this morning,” glancing nerv ously about the room, “and feel some timidity about beginning. Are we alone ?” “Yes; but i’ll call —'—’’eagerly began the merchant, “No, no; not for tho world!— What I have to say, none but you must hear. I should die if it became known !’’ Mr. B. Asliful only groaned, “Chancing to read your advertise ment in this morning’s paper, and having long felt a desire to enter into a—a partnership with some respecta bio person ” “1 know it!” gasped the poor man, wiping tho perspiration from | his face. “Really !” added the lady, with an air of surprise. “1 thought it a secret of my own. But I am glad you do, for it will make the avowal easier. You must know it is not ex actly the course a lady would like to take ; in fact, it might be deemed by many, somewhat unmaidenly, but as I have no male relatives to consult, no other course is open to me, I thought, just a- soon as I beheld your notice, that my chance had come ai last. 1 have known you by reputa tion foi a long time, and 1 can sin cerely say that there is no person whom I would prefer to yourself as a partner.” Mr B. A. only groaned and mop ped. “I have about fifteen thousand dol lars that I should like to invest in the business,” continued Miss Penn grab. “Of course, I should not like my name appear openly upon the hooks, hut would prefer—that is, you know—in fact—’’and she hesitated. “Eh, mum ?” stammered Mr. B. A “Well, I should prefer io bo a—a sleeping partner.’’ “Heavens 1” almost yelled Mr. Asliful, his rosy countenance turning several shades darker as he frantically mopped away at the perspiration that streamed from every pore, using an ink sponge in lieu of a hankerchiet “Is the man erazj ?” shrieked the lady, grasping a heavy ruler aud standing upon the defensive. Just then the door opened and a eleik asked, with wondering counte nance : “Did you call, sir ?’’ “Come in, VVaiien; come in This lady—tell her—that I don’t want to get married I” gasped the poor merchant. “Mr Ashful, do you wish to insult me ?’’ screamed Miss I’enngrab, her corn tenance flushing. “Then you didn’t——” “You advertised for a partner with a small capital to enter into a good business, aud when I come in to an swer it you must ’’ And there were symptoms of a shower. “Bless my soul —bless my soul, so I did !” exclaimed Mr..B. Ashful, de lightedly. “Then you didn’t see that other advertisement?” “No, sir; I did not. But I be lieve it is time 1 was going I havo heretofore regarded you as a gentle man, and not as a lunatic. As it is, I do not think it would be prudent to place money in your hands for in vestment,” and the lady dropped a dignified courtesy. But she did not leave just then, for Mr. B. Ashful now recovered, and, in a greaLmeasure dropping his bashful ness, appolngized so politely and ap peared such a kind, agreeable gentle man, that Miss M. P. was prevailed upon to reconsider her decision, and, before she took her departure, the RATES of aDVERTISING. stack 3 mo’s.
