THE VICTORY.
They reached the little gate; he stood
Amid the shadows, but the sun
That moment sent a glorious flood
Of light upon the path that led
Up to her door, he sighing said,
*Onr future seems to be begun.”
And open wide he threw the gate,
“The sunshine lougs for you, and so
\Valk in the light: why do you wait ?
Her face with crimson blushes dyed,
Like one with sudden hush she cried :
‘•l>o you not know ? Do you not know ?”
’ Your path with summer bloom is bright,
And mine is cold and dark,” he cried.
*‘l may not so your love requite,
I may not bid vou go with me;
Oli, love, dear love, you still are free,
And still the gate is o|K*n wide.”
And song and bloom and beauty call,
“Come back, all pleasures wait
tlerc In the light!” Above it all
She only heard her own heart's cries—
She only saw his pleading eyes—
With quick. Arm hand she closed the gate.
The shadows have no dread for her,
And once more love is conqueror,
HIS SECOND WIFE,
These wise people —theso who
manage Ibeir neighbors’ affairs
in theory much better than they
tlo their own in practice— shook
their heads in solemn conclave
when Mr. Hep vortb maTiod the
second time; but an added shade
of venom was in their councils
when the village paper noticed,
in a flowery paragraph, the birth
of a son and heir at the great
house.
“Poor Clarice, ’’ they said, “has
no chance now. It was bad
enough when Hepworth mar
ried a chit of a girl, who, of
course cared for nothing but his
money; hut now there is a son,
thcie is no hope for Clarice.”
A young, fair woman, herself
in the voty spring-.imo of life,
yet having already taken the
holy ties of wife and mother into
her pure heart, knelt in one of
the rooms of the great house—
knelt to bring her beautiful face
nearer to the cradle pillow upon
which rested the soft cheek of
her baby boy.
A low knock at the door
aroused her, and, rising to her
feet, she answered the summons.
Upon the threshold stood a
woman, a few years older than
hers If, who led by the hand a
handsome boy who had seen
two summers only.
The woman was poorly dressed
in a shabby mourning suit, hut
the child wore dainty white gar
ments.
‘ Did you wish to sec me?"
Mrs. Ilepworth asked, smiling
on the child.
••May 1 eotno In 7” was the wo
man's question in return.
“Certainly. You took tired.”
The stranger accepted the
chair and sadly looked around
the room
•Everything is altered,” she
said in a mournful voice. “Per
haps I had belter stay away.
Mrs. Ilepworth, you have heard
of Clarice Menderson ?”
“I have not,” was the reply.
• I am almost a stranger here.
We havo been traveling over
since I married, until a few
months ago.”
“And you never heard of me!”
Baid the stranger, the tears rising
in her eyes. “Then my errand
here is indeed hopeless. If; in
his new happiness as your hus
band my father never spoke my
name, it is useless to hope he
will forgive me."
“Year father! Mr. Hepworth
your father? He told mo he had
lost his only daughter ”
“Not that I was dead; I vas
lost to him hv my' own disobedi
ence. You love my father?”
Just a smile, proud, happy and
tender, answered her.
“Then you will understand
mo,” said Clarice, “when I tell
you I loved my husband belter
than father, homo or duty. Fa
ther would not hear of our mar
riage, and sternly forbade mo to
speak to Luccin Henderson, as
suring me that he was a fortune
hunter, a gambler, and unwor
thy of my love. 1 would not
believe this. To mo he was the
noblest and the best of men, and
for him I left all to fly secretly
from home and father. I have
been bitterly punished.”
“I spare you the history of
the four years of married misery
that followed. Then my hus
band and eldest child died of
eoutagi' us fever. Three months
later, on the very day this boy
was born, I heard of my father’s
marriage. I returned here, hop
ing for pardon, but the house
was shut up. When you came,
I determined to mako one more
effort for forgiveness hoping that
you would plead for me.”
“If my praying will keep you
here, Clarice, you shall not leave
your father's house again. Hr.
Hepworth is in the library, and
I will speak to him at once.”
“Cheer up, Clarice," she said,
bravely; "what is ycur little
boy’s name?”
• Stephen. It was the name of
my brother who died. My first
child was called after father."
“Stephen," said Mrs. Hep
worth, opening her arms, “come
here, darling, and Viss your
grandmother.”
The child sprang at once to
the lovely grandmother, kissing
her over and over again.
Putting him into his mother’s
am s, the young wife lifted her
own babe trout its cradle and
left the room.
In tbo darkly-furnished libra
ry, Mr. Ilepworth was leaning j
back in his easy chair.
A light step aroused him from
his reverie, and his wife stood
before him.
Her husband opened his arms
to caress her, and laughed as ho
said:
“Oh, these mothers 1 Do you
suppose, madarno, that babies are
admitted into the sanctums of
legal gentlemen ?”
“Ido,” said the mother, ‘‘if
the legal gentlemen have the ad
ditional honor of being their pa
pas.”
“Did you know, Harold,” said
Meta, her lips quivering slightly
as she felt the deep import of
her words, “that Ibis is my birth
day, and you have given me no
present?”
“You are impatient, little wife,”
ho answered, thinking of the
costly bauble that was lo coino
without fail by noon.
“But I would lilto to choose
my ow n gift,” she persisted.
“What can I give my rosebud
i that she has not already?"
“Does not your office include
1 the power of pardon?" sho asked,
J her sweet face paling with earn
estness.
“In a limited degro it does,”
!ho replied; “but dear one, I
shouldn’t like it to t>e known
, that I show clemency to a crim
inal upon your s lieitations. You
j would be constantly annoyed by
the loving relatives of scamps
trying to move mo lo pity
i through your intercession.”
“But this is not a ease of
| roguery, Harold, —only a true
penitent j one who erred in ex
-5 treme youth, was led from a path
|of duly by a lovn ns warm and
Jas true as our own, but mistak
en ; Ob, dear hu band, do you
j know for whom 1 would plead?
i Cannot you guess for whom I
would beg?”
“Clarice," bo asked hoarsely,
! “who has told you of her?”
I “She has corao herself to seek
| your forgiveness.”
“Sho is hero ?”
“Yes. You will forgive her?
For the sake of our own boy,
Harold, let this be a home for
her and Stephen."
“Stephen !” lie cried, sturling.
“Her son. Her husnand is
dead. She is w ; dowcd, poor and
lonely. Let her return to your
homo and your love, Harold.”
There was a moment of silence,
and the mother softly carried tho
strong right hand of her bus
band in her own until it rested
upon the head of tho babe in her
arms.
He look down and said :
“I grant your birthday wish
Meta. Take mo to Clarice.”
With a tender, loving kiss up
on the hand that still rcßtcd u;>on
her child's head, Meta led the
way back to her own pretty sit
ting-room where Clarice awaited
the result of the errand.
As she heard the steps coming
across the wide hall toward the
room where she was seated, her
agitation became too great for
patient waiting, and she stood
up, holding her child by the
hand, her breath coming in
quick, panting sobs, her eyes di
lated with suspense, aad her
whole figure quivering with emo
tion.
It was this eager face that
met tho father’s eyes as he open
ed the door—the face of the
child to whom he had given the
strength of love for years.
There was the cry of:
“Father, dear, dear father.”
And tboy were folded fast in j
each other's arms, while Meta!
drew wondering Stephen into an [

THOMSON, GA, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18.1880.
Our Washington Letter.
_ i
Washington City, Feb. 4, 1880,
Editor Journal :
A big winter in a tiny space—
most over now, for Mardi Gras
is at the door. A truce to fine
times, fine clothes and lino din
ners. Foremost of all lot us tell
of a quaint wedding place, but
not between quaint people.
Dee. 10, ’ii Prince Goorgo
county, Md., Annie Riley Hodges
was married to Charles Calvert
Bohrer, at Pentland, the homo
of the bride. The old place was
given in a grant of land to Sir
Benjamin Hodges by Queen
Anne. The family have held it
in possession and arc tbo lineal
descendants of Sir Benjamin.—
Mr. Benjamin Hodges, father of
the bride, is the present owner
of Pentland. Miss Amro's moth
er was Elizabeth Wise Riley,
daughter of Thos Robinson lii
ley and Ebzabotli Cropper Black
stone, of Aceomac county, Va.,
of the ancient families of Sir
Win. Blucknono, the great law
yer, and Sir John Riley, the cel
ebrated painter. The latter, in
1016, was appointed painter to
the Queen. The young husband
is of the old regal Maryland Cal
verts. Such a union and such a
scene of benuty in the dear old
Pentland home are not often wit
nessed. The Gsual old slipper,
of tho witch-laden times of years
ago, was thrown after tho car
riage as it drove down Pentland
bill, after tho ceremony. The
union of ancient families and the
noble ancestry of tho noble coup
! le rendered the ma riago one of
j real interest.
Weddings, receptions and par
j ties have been tho order of tho
j day since the full and winter
commenced, and now astingand
j prayer one as fashionable ns th
' other. Perhaps the ladies are
| glad to have Lent come, at least
it would seem so from the end
less round of calls, etc., with
which Mardi Gras closes.
Some of your neighbors, dear
Joubnai,, have been stopping at
the celebrated Catccazy Man
sion, now a large, old time board
ing bouse. I allude lo Mr. ami
■ Mrs. I’. M. Wilkes, of Lincoln,
| with their lovely child, Lone.
; Dear little I.one, wo often think
of her. On the 15th of January
| the mother anil child left hero to
■ vi-ji hot’grandmother, .VI rs Mur
ray. The house a‘ ove mention
ed was at one time the residence
of the Russian Minister, Cateoa
zy, where the beautiful Madame
Catccazy queened it right royal
ly. Here tho son of the Czar
stopped during his visit to this
city. The house is a queer
place, hilt a counter-part of many
rentable houses in this pla'o.
At present it has singularly fall
en to decay.
A fool’s errand by one of tho
I fools wa- the grand diplomatic
reception of Mr. Hayes on Mat'di
| Gras night, known in tho old
j country as “Pancake Day.”—
| This is a precedent by tho Presi
dent. Who will be the next?
Will it be Ulysses 1., or Maine’s
Blaine? A million times better
Blaine than Grant or Sherman.
We are searching for a leader of
the people, a plain, honest, true
j man This man is not Grant,
i and we should awake to a
knowledge of this fact before it
is too late.

She Cured Him,
[Milwaukee Hun.']
J Tnero is a roan up in the Sev
| onth Ward that hasn’t spoken to
j his wife in over a week. lie is
! so mad that ho won’t go home to
his meals, and the other day his
wife went to his office to get $6
j to pay for some shoes, and he
: told the clerk to pay her off and
j let her go. He grates his teeth
when ho goes home ai night, and
comes out of the houso every
j morning swearing. She played
j a joke on him, that was all. He
I has for years been telling her
that ho was sure he had heart
disease, and should go off sudden
ly sometime in the night. She
got sick of such talk, after heav
ing il for thirteen years, when
she knew ho was as healthy as a
yearling. Why, he didn't even
know where his heart was, and
couldn't point out tho location of
any particular portion of his in
ternal improvements. But he
kept talking about death, and
she determined to break up that
game as soon as she could think
of any way to do so.
A short time ago she bought
one of those India rubber bags,
for keeping hot water at tho feet
instead of using bottles It held
about three quarts, and her hus-
band didn’t know anything abou
it. Ono night, after she had t! <
water bag at her feet a couple o'
hours, until they woro about as,
warm as a piece of zinc, and her!
husband was snoring away by I
note, she thought what a good
joke it would bo to put it on his!
stomach and wake him up. She
burst tight out laughing, at mid
night, thinking < f it. So she
took up the rubber bag of hot j
water and placed it on his stem- !
aph. Tho bag was about as big I
as a cow’s liver, and as warm as
a piece of shingle on a boy. It
hadn’t boon on his chest and
oilier baggage over two minutest
before ho slowly opened his eyes
She stuffed tbo upper work of
her night-gown in her mouth to
keep from laughing. Ho rai
up his head, and said: “Harriet,
in)- end has come !’’
“Which end, Josiah?” said she,
as sho rolled ovor, “y ur head or
your feet?” And then she put a
pillow in her mouth, and reached
over lo him and unscrewed the
nozzle that holds the water in
the hag.
“1 am dying, Egypt, dying.”
said he. “My heart is . enlarged
to threo limes its natural size,
and oh, I am bleeding to death.”
Sho had opened the nozzle, and
the three quarts of hot water
was pouring over him, saturat
ing him from head to heels. Sho
had not meant to let out more
than half a pint of water on him,
but when it got "to flowing she
couldn't stop it, so sho got out of
bed and told him to save him
| self. 11 e attempted to slop the
| (low of blood, and sho struck a
light and asked him if his life
j preserv e had not sprung a leak,
and then he looked at tho rubber
hug, all I wen l and run himself
! through a clothes wringer, and
: he slept on the lounge the rest
of tho night, and ho says that,
his wife is the meanest woman
that ovor drawed the breath of
life. Sho tells her friends that
Josiah has been miraculously
cured ol heart disease.
The Local Editor-
Tho following is borrowed, and
it is the host we over had a loouff
editor to lend us: ,
If a man buys a now buggy,
or if his row can bawl throe
times without winking, the local
is expected to proclaim it with a
grand flourish. Il’ ho starts a
two penny business, his first
thought is lo bribe the local with
a fivo-cont cigar to write a five
dollar puff’.
Indeed, he thinks it is a mis
sion of tho local to make his for
tune for him by ‘free blowing ’
lie will take tho local to one
side and point out tho superior;
qualities of a rat-terrier, and
coolly ask him to give him a
hoist. Ho don't earo anything
about it, only Spriggins has a:
dog which he thinks is a buster,
and some of ’em want' and his put
in just to take the conceit out . f
Sprigging.
Everybody wants to he ‘put
in.' They are the Great I Am,
but no one says, ‘Here, local,
put yourself inside this new suit
of clothes,’ or ‘throw yourself
outside of this oyster-slew,’ or
‘stuff this watch into your pock
et.’ Oh, no, of course not; that
would cost something. The shoo
is on tho other foot, yon see.
The loeul is supposed to know
everything about other people’s
business, and is expected to show
up till tho actors in every family
broil in town. If tho vile tongue
of scandal finds a victim, people
wonder why he don’t run about
with his note hook and gather
up tho vituperative hits of slan
der for his paper.
If ho Steps into a billiard hull
ho is requested to make a note of
the astonishing fact that Bill
Tompkins has made a run of
eleven points.
When tho minstrel troupe ar
rives in town, the agent immedi
ately rushes into the printing
office, and calling for tho local,
he slips two or three tickets in
his hand and whispers:
‘Draw us a rousing house.—
But it in strong.'
And patting him patronizingly
on the shoulder, the agent ad
mits the inferiority of the troupe,
hut y< u are not to ‘let on.'
It is no sin for the local to lie.
To please the lecturer, the local
is forced to sit two mortal hours
to hear him through an insipid
discourse, so that he can ‘write
him up.’
And so it goes. All are anx
ious to appear favorably in print,
but few are willing to pay for it.
The local’s time is worth noth
ing but to bother his head wri
ting puffs for ambitious persons.
It doesn’t cost him anything to
live; ho never eats, or drinks, or
travels, and money is of no uf<e
to him. Put jt in! pgl jt is I

From numerous experiments made
in the great hospital at Posg.n, Prus
sia, it appears that ioc is a most ef
fectual remedy against small-pox.-
One of the patients, in a fit of delir
ium, escaped to the garden, where
the snow lay two feet deep. There
he remains the whole night, with r.o
covoriu r but his shirt. On the fol
lowing morning tho fever had subsid
ed and the pustules had dried.—
This strange circumstance attracted
the physicians’ attention, and, after
consultation, they determined to keep
the temperature of the small-pox
wards very low, and apply small
quantities of ice to the patients. The
results surpassed their expectations,
and at the end of a week all the pa
| ticuts had recovered.
