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 mother went out leaving the child, about 4 years old, alone in the house ; wlt.-n she returned it was in flames. It lived about '24 hours before death relieved it. 'MUsrcUaucousk vH o j minion. IN WHICn MANY Flo U'l.K MAY SEE THEM SELVES RKI UX'TED.. “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 in that household for the husband and 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 ment the sunshine came back; arid had the lesson ended there the husband might have fancied that he had done nothing wrong, and that the cloud had been nothing hut the of a do mestic ferment for which no one. was par ticularly responsible,- though he might have banished ti e eon vistion that wo men’sfash’oi:? were a nuisance and a HERE SHALE THE PRESS THE PEOPLE S RIGHTS MAINTAIN, UNAWED BY FEAR AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN. QUITMAN, GEO., DECEMBER 25, IMS. 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 he required to give such satisfaction as 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. The Macon Telegraph says that at the last term-of Houston Superior Court an j important case came tip in a suit for damages. Mr. Howard, last Spring, ! made a contract with frecdimm to work j for him during tho year. Afterwards Mr. Slater hired the sums hands, when j they left Mr, Howard and went to Mr. i Slater to work. Mr. 11. thereupon sm-d i Mr. S. for damages, ana the Jury return jed a verdict of twelve hundred dollars. : This was at Perry, lion. C. B. Cole, ! Judge, presiding.
