AUGUSTA, GEA,.:
Thursday Morning, Not. 18, 1875.
Respect the Barden.
AN INCIDENT.
By the Author of “John Halifax, Gentleman.”
Great Garibaldi, through the streets one
day,
Passing triumphant, while admiring
throngs,
With acclamations and exultant songs,
For the uncrowned kingly man made way—
Met one poor knave, ’neath heavy burden
bowed,
Indifferent to the hero and the crowd.
His zealous followers would have drivsn
aside
The sorry creature, but that good man
said.
Stretching a kind hand over the suffering
head:
“ Bespect the burden." Then, majestic-
He paused and passed on, no one saying
him nay;
The heavy-laden man, also, went his way.
Thou happy soul, who travelest like a king
Along the rose-strewiyjathway of thy lot,
Respect the burden. Thou may’st see It,
or not.
For one heart Is to another a sealed thing.
Laughter there is that hideth sobs or
moans;
Firm footsteps oan leave blood-prints on
the stones.
Respect the burden, whatsoever it be;
Whether loud outcries vex the startled
air.
Or in dumb agony of loss, despair
Lifts her still face, so like tranquility—
Though each strained heartstrfng quivers,
never shrinks;
*• Let this cup pass from me!"—then stoops
and drinks!
Oh. heavy burden! Why 'tls born*, and
how,
None know save those who bear; and
Him whose hand
Has laid it on the shoulder, and said—
“ Stand,
Stand upright. Take this chrism upon thy
brow,
My own anointed. Sore thy load may be;
But know—beneath it thou art carrying
Me! ” (—Good Words.
ABOIT WOMEN.
It Is presumed that if Mrs. Myra
Clark Gaines gains her present suit
against Caleb Cushing she will retire
ou her gains.
The ladies of Newport, R. 1., have
organized a society for social entertain
ment and have adopted the name of
Wide Awakes.
A Western paper In speaking of the
recent sale of some Chinese women in
Ban Francisco at three cents a head
says: “Cheap China-ware, but warrant
ed to wash."
A goat followed a Louisville girl two
miles the other day, and she was finally
obliged to rush into a house to escape
the wrath of the infuriated animal.
The girl’s stripped stockings caused
the trouble.
A London Custom House officer says
that his experience convinces him that
women, as a rule, would rather smug
gle their gloves and other knick-nacks
than receive the same as a present free
of cost.
Two Opinions—La Rochefoucald
Bays: “The hell of women is old
age.” Holmes says: “A good and true
woman is said to resemble a Cremona
fiddle—age but increases its worth and
sweetens its tone.”
Here is a Mormon reason for marry
ing a Gentile: “Why, Isn’t he hand
some! and then he is good, and then—
and then—l wanted every bit of him t®
myself! Father didn’t like it, .mother
didn’t like it, but I did!”
Mrs. Squeems, of Smithville, who Is
married to a minister, says that her
husband did Intend to start a revival
In his church, but upon reflection con
cluded that the business was getting
overdone and common, and so gave up
the ided.
The woman-suffragists of New Haven
are wrestling with the question, “ Who
is the superfluous woman ?” Of course
we can’t tell, but we know a number of
family men in town, each of whom
thinks he has married her— [Norwich
Bulletin.
The poetic sentiment given below
will find thousands of indorsers among
unsuccessful lovers:
Be not triumphant, little flower,
When on your haughty heart youffie,
But modestly enjoy your hour;
She’ll weary of you by and by.
Mrs. Davy, of Tennessee, desiring to
test the strength of her husband’s love,
pretended she had drowned herself.
Mr. Davy hired a negro to drag for the
body and went to the coin-fleld at his
usual pace. And then she crawled out
from under the house, followed on and
blessed him her hardest.
Miss Simcox said in her address at
the English Trades Union Congress,
lately in session at Glasgow, that many
girls refused to work at trades where
the wages were very low for the simple
reason that men about town looked
upon girls so employed as being willing
to help out their income dishonestly.
Two sisters live in Florence, Italy,
who never pass a beggar without
giving him something, saying at the
same time: “Instead of blessing me,
pray a little for the soul of my dearly
loved brother, who is in purgatory,”
and there is not a street where the
sisters, ever dressed in the deepest
crape, are not followed by loving,
devoted eyes from the many to whom
they have made this touching appeal.
A Flemingsburg (Ky) lady recently
achieved a remarkable task. She put
a quilt on the frames one morning after
breakfast, and on the evening of the
day following the quilt was taken out
finished. Besides doing this, which is
itself a big undertaking, she attended
to the dairy, churning twice, scrubbed a
porch forty feet long, washed a little
and assisted in catching one dozen
chickens for the huckster, who was
waiting for them.
A Shelby (Ky.) paper is responsible
for the statement that a young
lady was recently married in that
locality who was so exceedingly
modest when the hour for tying
the matrimonial noose arrived
that she had to be tied to the
bed-post until the ceremony was per
formed. She was perfectly willing and
even desirous of wedding the man of
her choice, but the idea of marrying in
the presence of any one else was more
than her modesty could stand, henoe
the necessity of tying her.
An Omaha letter describes the Indian
Bquaws as exceedingly interesting to
visitors to the agencies in that region.
Their faces are more oval-shaped than
the males, and lass stern of expression.
They wear their coal-black hair in two
braids hanging down on either side of
their heads. Their eyes are large,
almond-shaped and something of a
dark brown, sparkling and merry.
Large holes are cut in the upper and
lower parts of the ear. In these holes
are fastened large brass rings, to which
are attached turquoise beads, divided
Into five or ten longitudinal sections.
On the end of this earring is the hand
somest portion of a mother-of-pearl
shell. A necklace of the same material
and fashioned in the same manner is
worn about the neck.
The ladies of literary London have no
meetings there as they have in Ameri
ca. George Elliott is sometimes seen
in literary clubs, with her husband. Mr.
Lewes, but very rarely. She lives in a
quiet, humble way, in the north side of
London, in a little two-story house.
L*dy Hardy, another of the great
ladies of London, is living now Just
opposite. Mrs. Linton lives in about
the heart of London, in a little more
pretentious style. Christina Rosetti is
an invalid, and lives with her mother
and brother. Jean Ingelow lives in the
aristocratio Kensington Gardens quar
ter, but in a plain and quiet way, and
is very accessible to Americans. In
fact, all of these great ladies of London
will make you feel at home as much iu
half an hour as if you’d gone to take
tea with a favorite aunt. — Joaquin
Miller.
The Sait Lake Tribune, of a late date,
says: “Aunt Nancy, that good old
soul, has returned again, like the
autumn, with her green veil and her
blue umbrella, tinted with the hues of
time. From the classic shades of
Cache she has come, to claim her long
disputed position as queen of Brig
ham’s harem. The poor old lady has
wandered for thirty years, up and
down on the earth, like a witch upon
the wind. For years and years she
pleaded, begged and entreated the
Prophet to take her in out of the cold,
but he was deaf to her appeals. Her
loving words, whispered through tooth
less gums and purple lips, could
not wake an echo in his heart. Nay,
when her affection got slovenly, Brig
ham put her out of his house and shut
the door in her face, but she snatched
the cap from his head and to this day
wears it as a bustle. But she always
thought that time would straighten
out this little love affair, and had con
sequently let Brigham sow his wild
oats and have his fun, while she has
resignedly waited his royal pleasure.
Now, after years have sped away and
when the fires of his youth burn dim,
he opens wide his arms to his first
love.”
Untrue to Himself.
[St. Joseph Gazette ]
He is a second-hand clothier, and
holds forth in South St. Joseph. It was
about the hour of ten, yesterday morn
ing, when he reeled into an adjoining
establishment, fell into a chair, weaved
his hands into the tangled locks of his
gray hair, and, rocking back and forth,
moaned out:
“Oh 1 dear, oh ! dear, I ish ruined ! ”
“Vatiu der matter, Jacob?” asked
his sympathizing brother in trade,
bending over him.
“ You remember dat coat vot I baid
six bits for, on yesterday ? ”
“Yes, I remember him.”
“Just now a man from the country
comes in and asks me how much for
dat, and I tells him dree dollar; and
would you believe it, Moses, he puts
his hand right into his pocket and pays
de full price without a word”— Here
he lowered his voice to the lowest
whisper: “So help me gracious,
Moses, I believe he’d paid me five
dollars, just the same.”
“Jacob, how you vas swindle your
self.”
“Dat vas vat makes me hate mine
self so much as never vas.”
And the old man limped back Into
his own establishment, and doubled all
his goods at first call.
A FRENCH LOVE STORY.
iFrom the Paris Charivari.]
The hurry of a young man to say “I
will marry”—above all when he does
not see what his interlocutor carries In
hand—is sometimes exceedingly incon
tenient. The other day a worthy citi
zen encountered, as he came out of a
fancy store, a young man whom he had
met at the bathing place a month be
fore.
“Hold,” he said to himself “that is
the young fellow whom we used always
to meet on the shore, when I took a
walk with Victorine.”
He ran toward the young man, and
said:
“Don’t you recollect me ?”
“Heavens!” he exclaimed, turning
deadly pale, and seizing the old man’s
habds so that he could inflict no injury,
he added: “I am ready to marry her,
sir,”
“To marry her!” exclaimed the citi
zen in amazement.
“Yes, sir; I have done very wrong. I
know it; but all can be repaired. What
do you wish? I love her—love her like
a fool.”
“Love!—who?”
“Victorine!”
“Victorine! Malheureux! Why, that
is my wife’”

THE cotton le spread on this maohine from the bale, and Is j Into a very even
lap, at the rate of 800 to 400 pounds per hour. The laps are then finished on a
TWO-BEATER LAPPER,
WITH
KITSON’S PATENT EVENER
Attahed, and owing to reccent improvements in this Evener, the laps when ready for
the oard, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. The Cost of picking by tills
system is only about one mill per pound on the doth produced, and the picker house is
safer from fire than the card room.
S”The;e is at- o a great saving of room and power over the old system.
Theso Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langlev Manufac
turing Company, and at the best mius at LoweL, Lawrence, Fail River, Manchester
Lewiston, Providence, Richmond, Baltimore, etc,, etc.
The following are a low among many testimonials which we have received:

OFFICE LANGLEY MANUFACTURING COMPANY, \
Langley, S. 0., April 14, 187:1. i
The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen . T heve been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher Lrppers, witn Eveners, lor more thin two vears at th" < v tton Mill oi tno
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
a>iy opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, vve have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its secur fcy against Are.
Yours, <fcc., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
