©je CflnatitnlbMiisl 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’” TAKE SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR For all diseases of the Liver. Stomach and Spleen. MALARIOUS FEVERS, BOWEL COMPLAINTS.
