The fervid son is calling
The dew drops home on high,
From brook and lake and river
The vapers seek the sky.
Earth gives them up reluctant,
And faint with thirst and heat.
Mourns for her children of the dawn.
So radiant and so fleet.
But they have hot forgotten,
In Heaven's serener lay,
The beauty and the brightness
From which they fled away.
The dew remembers fondly
The sweetness of tho rose,
And the spirit ol the rivulet.
Its early music knows.
And when the earth is faifiting
And weary for the rain,
lo showeis of love and blessing
They come lo her again 1
With cool refreshing fingers,
They bathe her heated brows.
And the song I hat they have learned on high,
Through all her being flows 1
Oh: dare we take the le-sori
Os the dew drop and the rain ?
Do the angels who have left us
* Return to us again 1
In Heaven's eternal sunshine,
Renewed and purified
l)o ‘hev keep the memory of the home
In which they lived and died ?
When we arise from weeping
For the idols we adored.
And our lips repeat w ith fervor,
■•All. ail shall be restored,”
Are they not bending o'er us
With more than human love,
And whispering lo our inmost hearts
Os holier joys above !
Descend, O blessed angels,
In glories ever new ;
Reveal to ns new lessons
Ot the beautiful and true.
A- the rain the earth refreshes,
Let ynifr love on us lie sited,
Tul we roHnw up the rainbow path,
Whither our lovod are fled.
OFF HER BENDER.
The -Grecian bend” found its way into »
street ear a (lav or two ago, and an audacious
youth, »fa poetic turn of mind perpetrated the
following concerning it:
She stepped upon the platform--
Her grace I can t forget—
For. oh! that Grecian bend of her's
Clings to my memory yet.
Her smile was like ttie sunbeam,
Her bonnet •■some,'' you bet;
But that lovely Grecian bend of her's,
Was the -heaviest” bend I met.
Her waterfall was gorgeous,
And all who saw contend
That her grace was never equaled
By the Saratoga bend.
But, ulus for maiden beauty —
Du*' will return to dust,
And the n ost enchanting bender
Is doomed to moth and l ust.
In stooping t« assume her seat,
(i hate to tell, but .i.ust,)
Some whalebone thing that stayed her up
Bent double—and then '-bust 1”
She softly sighed, ami sweetly smiled,
And then, in accents tender.
As she nibbed her back, she gently said,
“Thank Heaven, I'm off »y bender 1”
Fr.HAt.S SUFFRAGE IS GEORGIA. TilC
town of Marietta is going to take a vole I
of property owners, male and female, a
week from lo day upon the proposition
to have an act passed by the next Legis
lature authorizing the levying of an ex
tra tax sufficient to raise the sum of $4,-
000, to purchase a suitable bouse and
lot for a Female College.
That is a square occasion for female
suffrage.
A negro child was burned to death
near Atlanta, on Friday evening. The

“Albert, 1 wish you would let me have
seventy five cents.”
Kate Landman spoke very carefully,
for she know that her husband had not
much money to spare ; yet she spoke
earnestly, and there was a wot Id of en
treaty in Iter look.
"What do you want seventy five cents
lor?” asked Albert.
“I waul so get some braid for my new
dress.”
“1 thought you had the materials all
on hand for Chat.”
“So 1 thought T had; hut Mrs. Smith
and Mrs. Thompson both have a trim
ming of braid upon theirs and it looks
Very pretty. It is very fashionable, and
it certainly adds much to the looks of
the dress.”
“Plague lake these women’s fashions!
Your endless trimmings and thiug-a-ma
gigs cost more than the dress is worth.
It’s nothing hut shell out money when
once a woman thinks of anew dress.”
“Surely I don’t, have so many new
dresses. 1 do certainly try to be as
economical as I can.”
“It’s a funny kind of economy, at all
events. Fat if you must have it, 1 sup
pose you must-”
And Albert Landman took out his.wal
let and counted out the seventy-five
cents j hut he gave it grudgingly, and
when he put his wallet back into his
pocket he done it with an emphasis
which seemed to say that he wouldn’t
take it out again for a week.
When Albert readied the outer door
on his way to his work, he found the
! w< ather so tlireateniiig that lie conclu
’ ded to go hack and get his umbrella
i and upon re-entoiing the sitting room
he found Ilia wife in tears. She tried to
hide the fact that she had been weeping
Lnt he had caught her in the act, asked
| what it meant.
j “Good gracious ! cried the husband,
1 "1 should like to know if yon are crying
at what I said about the dress*”
“I wasn’t crying at what you said
! Albert, replied liate, tremulously; “but
1 you were so reluctant to grant me the
favor. 1 was thinking how hard I have
■to work; 1 am tied to the house ; hmv
: many little things 1 have to perplex me
i —and then to think—•”
! “Pshaw ! What do you want to be so
I foolish for ?”
And away started Albert Landman a
second time, hut he was not to escape i
so easily. In the hall he was met by i
his daughter Lizzie a bright eyed, rosy
checked girl of ten years.
“O papa, give me fifteen cents 7”
“What
“Oh, I want fifteen cents. Do please
give it to me.”
“What in the world do you wan’t with
it? Are they changing school bocks
again V
‘No ; [ want to buy a hoop. Filer)
Smith has go. one, and so has Mary
(Dick and Sarah Alren. Mr Grant has
got some real pretty ones to sell. Can’t
1 have one ?’
‘Nonsense? If you want a hoop go and
get one off some old barrel. I can’t af
ford to be buying l oops Tor yon to truii
-1 die about the streets.’
‘Please, papa,’
‘No, I tell you.’
The bright blue eyes were filled with
fears, and the child’s sobbing broke up
on his ear. Albert Landman hurried
from the house with some very impa
tient words upon biff lips.
This was in the morning. At noon,
when he came home to his dinner, there
was a cloud over the household. Ilia
wife was sober, and even little Lizzie
usually so gay and blithesome, was sad
and silentr
But these things could not last 'ong

wife really loved each other devotedly,
and weie at heart kind and forbearing
When Albert cam; to his supper Kale
greeted him with a kiss, and in a mo

the lesson ended there the husband
might have fancied that he had done
nothing wrong, and that the cloud had

humbug, as well as a friglitlii! draft tip
on husband’s pockets.
After tea Albert did a few chores a
round the house, and then lie lighted a
t'igar and walked out. lie had gone
luit a short distance when ho met Lizzie.
In her right hand she dragged an old
hoop, which she had taken from a di
lapidated flour barrel, while with her
'left she was rubbing her red, swollen
eyes. She was in grief, and was soli
Liiog patiently. lie stopped his child
and asked what the matter.
She answered as well as her sobs
would let her, that tlie other girls had
laughed at her, and made fan of her old
hoop. They had nice pretty hoops,
while her’s was ugly and homely.
'Never mind'said Albert patting the
little one upon the head (for the child's
grief touched him); “perhaps we’ll have
anew hoop some time.
“Mayn’t I hate one now ? Mr. Grant’s
got one 'eft—ho, such a pretty one 1’
The sobbing had ceased, as the child,
caught her father’s hand eagerly,
‘Not now Lizzie—not now. I'll think
of it.’
Subbing again the child moved ou to
ward home, dragging the hoop after her.
At one of these stores Albert Landman
met some of his friends.
'Halloa, Albert ? What’s up?’
‘Nothing in particular.’
‘What do you say to a game of bil
liards Albert?’
‘Good 1 I’m in for that.’
And away went Albert to the billiard
hall, where he had a glorious time With
his friends. He liked billiards It was
a healthy pretty game, and the keeper
of the hall allowed no rough scuffs upon
his premises,
They had played four games, Albert
had Won two and his opponent had won
ttvo.
‘That’s two ftnd two,' cried Turn Piper
‘\vfiat rfo yoft say to playing them off,
Albert?’
‘AH right; go in,’said Albert full cf
animation.
So they played th» fifth game, and lie
Who lost was to pay for the live games.
It was an exciting contest. Both made
capital ittns but in the find Albert was
beaten by three points ; and With a light
laugh he went up to settle the bill. Five
games- twenty cents a game: jitst one
dollar. Not much for such sport} and
he paid out the money with grace, and
never once scorning to feel that b l ' could
not afford it.
‘Have a cigar ?' said Tom.
‘Yes.’
They lighted their cigars and then !
sauntered down the hall to watch others ,
play.
Albert soon found himself seated over
against a table at which some of his
friends were playing and close by stood
two gentlemen strangers to him, one of
whom was explaining to tiie other the
mysteries of tho game.
lit is a healthy pastime,” said he who
had given the explanations, ‘and certain
ly, it iR one which can have no evil ten
dency.’
Albert heard the remarks very plainly
and he had a curiosity to hear what the
other who seemed unacquainted with
billiards would say.
<1 cannot of course, assert that any
game which calls for skill and judg
ment arid which is free from the atten
dant curse of gaming is of itself an evil,
remarked the second gentleman, ‘Such
things arc only evil so far as they ex
cite and stimulate men beyond the bounds
of healthy reaction.’
'That result can hardly follow such a
game,’ said the first speaker.
But the other shook his head.
•Yon are wrong there. The result,can
fo'low in two ways. First—-It can lead
men from business, and second it load
men to spend money who have not that
money to spend. You will understand
me. I would not cry down the game of
billiards for if I understood it I should
certainly try you a game now; but when
ever I visit a place of this kind I am
, led to reflect upon a most strange and
prominent weakness of humanity as de
veloped in our sex. For instaricj ob
serve that young man who is just settling
his bill at the desk. He looks like ame
■ clianic and I should say, from his man
ner and from the fact that he feels it
his duty to go home at this hour that he
has a wife and children. I see by his
face thatrbo is kind hearted and gener
! ous and I should judge that he means to
do as near right as he can. He has been
beaten and he pays one dollar and forty
\ cents f;r the recreation of eotnb two
hours duration. If yon observe you will
see that he pays it freely, and pockets
the Joss with a smile. Happy faculty?
lint how do yoil suppose it is in that
young m in’s home! Suppose his wife
j had come to him this morning and asked
him for a dollar to spend for some trifling
thing—some household ornament or
some hit of Jewelry to attorn her person
—and suppose his little child had just in
a plea for forty cents to liny a paper
and a picture book with, what do 3-011
think he would have answered ? Os sis
ly men just like him would not fortj’
and flue have declared that they had not
money to spare for any such purpose ?
And moreover, the}' would have said so
! feeling that they’ were telling the truth.
; Am I not right?”
‘Upon my soul, responded the man
who understood billiards, “you speak toj
! the point. 1 know that young man who
| has just paid his bill and you have not
| misjudged him in a single particular.—
And what’s njote 1 happen to have a fact
at hand to illustrate your charge. We
have a club for an excellent literary pa.
per in our village and last yeitr tlial man
was one of our subscribers. This year he
felt obliged to discontinue it. His wife
was very anxious to take it, for it had
become a genial companion*in leisure
moments; but he could not afford it.—
I’lie club rate was one dollar and fifty
cents a year.
‘Aye, and so it goes,’ said the other
gentleman. ‘Well, that mans -wifi! tuay !
be wishing at this moment that she had I
her paper to read, while he is paying al- j
most its full price for a year—for what? j
Yet how smilingly ho does it ! Ah, those
poor sympathizing wives 1- Hew many
clouds often darken upon them Iront the
brows of their husbands when they ask
for trifling sums of tnoney ( add how j
grudgingly the mite is (landed over when J
it is given ! What perfect floods of joy
might that dollar and forty cents have |
mimed upon the unsuccessful billiard j
player. Ah, it is well for such wives
and children that they do not know where j
the money all goes.
They bad finished at the nearest in ;
hie. The two gentlemen moved on, and 1
Albert Landman arose from his seat and r
left the lialL Never before had lie such j
tlloffglif.s as ftotf possessed him ; he had I
liefer dwelt upon the same grouping j
ideas. That very morning'his own true, j
faithful, loving wife had been sad and
heart sick because he had harshly and
unkindly met her request for a small
sum of money. Ills sweet Lizzie had
crept away lo her home almost broken
Rearted lor the want of a simple toy,
such as In r mates possessed. Yet* the
sum of both their wants amounted to
j not as much as he had paid away that
1 evening for billiard playing.
Landman wanted to be an honest lins
: hand and father, and the lesson Was not
i lost upon hifn. On his way homo he
slopped and purchased the best and
prettiest hoop to he found, arid in the
morning when he beheld the child’s dr
light, and l ad received her grateful, hap
py kiss, the question came to his mind,
I which was the best and happiest result,
this or the five games of billiard*? The
j hoop had cost thirty cents. He could
: play two games oi billiards less and lie
i the absolute gainer often cents by the
pleasant operation.
i A few mornings after this as Land
man arose from the breakfast table, he
| detected an uneasy', wistful look upon
his wife’s face.
‘Kate, what is it ?’
‘Albert, could you spare me half a dol
lar this morning ?’
‘Certainly, my love. Anything in rea
son to make you happy.’
Out came the wallet, and the money
was handed over with a warm, genial
ernile.
1 What I Tears at that ! Was it pos
sible that she had been so little used to
such scenes on his part that so simple
an act, of loving kindness thus affected
. her ?
How many games of billiards would

Landman carried with Lirn that morning
to tho shop?
Avery simple lesson, is it not ? But
how many may gain lasting profit by
giving heed to the lesson.
