Platonic Philosophy.
[From the Home Journal.]
Believe in Platonics! Well, no, not exactly
You see it’s right hard to define ’
Between the strong real and “purely ideal ’’
A clear but intangible line. ’
The t heory is pretty and very convenient *
The distinction is so very “thin’ -
That it's sometimes quite vexing, as well
as perplexing,
To settle just which it has been.
You swore in Platonics. Perchance you
werehonest—
,t silenced allscruple3 the same -
home days you discover the “friend” is a
over.
The difference is just in the name.
it’s alluringly bated for those who are
mated
With not over-dear husbands or wives,
But sometimes, ere it’s over, this love under
and over
Makes shipwreck of one or more lives.
It is best to eschew what we’ll certainly
rue,
or if we make love, to call it love-mak
ing;
To play with edge tools is the pastirol of
fools,
Ottenest ending in tears, and heart-break
iug.
Mignonette.
Theatrical Dead Beats.
[Memphis Ledger.]
But few people have any idea of the
means taken by some men to gain ad
mission to the theatre free of charge,
nor have they any idea of the different
classes of men who make these efforts
to enjoy something formothing. One
man purchases a ticket, goes in antT
sees half the play, then goes out and
gives his check to another man, who
walks in and enjoys the remainder of
the performance. The first man then
rushes up to the door-keeper and as
sumes an air of great excitement as he
searches his pockets for the lost cheek ;
says he has lost it, but the door-keeper
must of course remember him, as he
had made it a point to speak to the door
keeper as he went out. Another chap
walks up when there is a rush at the
door, and when the door-keeper is very
busy taking checks, hands him an old
check used several nights previously,
and walks in, but the door-keeper stops
him and says : “Hold on, sir, this check
is not used by us to-night; we have
different checks for every night;” and
the unbashed dead-beat laughs or says
something unintelligibly as he sneaks
down stairs. Still another, more cheeky
than the rest, boldly walks up and saja
to the door-keeper : “Sir, I have lost mv
check while I went over to the saloon
to get a drink, and he attempts to walk
in, but is stopped. He becomes indig
nant, and says: “Do you think,
sir, that I would tell a lie for
a dollar?” “I have nothing to
do with that, sir,” replies the bland
door-keeper, “ but if you were in,
I gave you a check when you
went out, and if you have lost it, it is
your loss; you must purchase another
ticket.” The man becomes still more
indignant, talks about the manage
ment and threatens never to patronize
the theatre again, as he walks majesti
cally down stairs. These things are
done often by persons whom you would
not suspect of such conduct, but
their high-toned morals teaches
them that it is not wrong to
dead-beat a theatre if they can.
All kinds of confidence dodges are
practiced in order to secure admission.
Men pretend to represent newspapers,
to be editors of country journals and
members of the staff of papers in other
cities. They even carry note books,
which they take out when refused ad
mission, as if to note down the insult
rid indignantly appeal to their widely
circulated and influential journals, and
they threaten to crush the theatre in
their next issue in consequence of being
refused admission as dead-heads. The
legitimate journalist, if in another city,
of course, purchMgs his ticket like any
other well-behawaCHristian or infidel.
President Grant and the Anti-Cath
olic Order.— John T. Foster, editor of
th<- Newark, (N. J.,) Evening Courier,
it as addressed a letter to ex-Speaker
lilaine, iu which he says:
‘'Eighteen months ago! told you that
you evuld have New Jersey in 1876. I
wish now to emphasize that statement.
All our people are for you, and we can
carry the State beyond peradrenture.
Our danger is that the West will de
mand the nomination. This can also
be averted, of course, by a union of
New England, the Middle States, and
stray votes from the South. A potent
factor in our next convention will be
the secret anti-Catholic order. Grant
is a member, and it has a good deal of
strength in Congress. I think you
dught. to go jn. It can be arranged so
’hat you can be initiated anywhere by
one person. The order is spreading
widely. My obligations do not permit
me to* say more than this, except that
Grant, no doubt, relies upon it to pro
mote his aims. With wisdom at Wash
ington, and with the States we have j
carried, we can surely hold the coun
try. But to hold it for a hap-hazard
candidate is hardly worth the candle.
For one of a vast multitude I want to
hold it for you.”
H r Cat. —“Emeline Arnold, did you
strike your husband with a poker?”
asked the court of a square shouldered
woman without any bustle on. “And
what did he do ?” she squeaked. “The
poker question takes the preference,
Mrs. Arnold. Did you play poker on
his head?” “You don’t know what I
have to stand from him !”■ “Answer
my question, Mrs. Arnold.” If you
knew that man as I do, judge ! I had
thirty-six dollars iu cash when we were
married, five years ago, and he has run
through every dollar of it!” “The
—poker—the poker !” “Well, I did hit
him,” she replied, finding herself corn
ered at last, “but what did he do—an
swer me that !” “I can’t do it.” “Well,
sir, he kicked a cat that has been in
our family for three years !” “Is Mr.
Arnold here ?” asked the court, looking
over the audience. Mr. Arnold, with
his head bound up, had been waiting
to swear against his wife, but suddenly
overtaken with remorse he rushed out
floors as the court called. “Mrs. Ar
nold, you may go home,” said his hon
or, “and if you feel it your duty to
strike your husband with a poker oc
casionally, I suppose I can't help it.”—

How Uncle Daniel Started His
Church. —After “Uncle Drew” had sub
scribed $200,000 toward founding anew
Methodist College, lie remarked to a
friend one day*' “Well, sir, I didn’t
know where the money was coming
from. I was worried over it, and so
made it a subject of prayer. After
fasting and praying over the matter
for one day, I went down on Wall
street, and* in less than twenty-four
hours, I skinned those fellows out of
$200,000! ” — St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The big hog of this or any other
season passed along the street Mon
day evening en route to the slaughter
pen. He weighed 740 pounds, aad
looked as big as he weighed. He was
raised by Mr. Samuel Anderson, on
Beaver creek, in this county, and was
sold bv him to Giles Y. Buford & Cos.,
of our town. He was a monster, and
attracted mQje than an average share
of attention from street-passers and
shopkeepers generally.— Glasgow {Kg.)

Attahed, and owing to reccent improvements in this Evnner, the laps when ready for
the card, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by this
system is only about one mill per pound ou the cloth produced, and the picker house is
safer from lire than the card ru mi.
4SrThere is also a great saving of room and power over the old system.
These Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langley Manufac
turing Company, and at the best mills at Lowell, Lawrence, Fail River, Manchester
Lewiston, Providence, Richmond, Baltimore, etc., etc.
The following are a iew among many testimonials whicn we have received:

Langley, S. 0., April 14, 1873. \
The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen. I nave been running your system of Compound Opener Lapper * and
Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, for mote th >r two years navt at the G< tton Mill oi u:e
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any 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 ty against lire.
Yours, Ac., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent
