“THE OLD MAN’S WED*
DING.”
Alas that death should erer act
His seal on such precious clay;
Ala* that thought ot fond regret
Should cloud my wedding day.
There are two g.aves in a distant Iqnd
And tears have watered ttum well:
Even whilo I clasp this lovely band,
Wliat tales does memory te’l.
Oh I love the dead, the old man said,
The move when I look on thee,
For the blighted blossoms thut long
have fled,
Come back and bloom for me.

OLD JOHN BROWN. ■
The Philadelphia Press says that
the family of old John Brown,
bravely lighting poverty in Cali
fornia, huvn good raason to oom-
piain that republics am ungrataful.
It reasons that because tbe eld
rascal was hung tor endeavoring to
•xcite rioting and murder in Vir
ginia, he gave his life “to put (he
nation forward half a century in
tha p-ogress ot civilization.’' This
country has come to a pretty pass
when a would-be murderer of in
nocent people witheut regard to
uge or sex cau be held up as a
paragon ef virtue, and a fit objbet
for public sympathy. If John
Brown’s family are destitute, the
charitably disposed should hqlp
them as they would any other sof-
fat ing fellow-creature, but for do-
cency’s sake don’t let that charity
ho dispensed because of John
Brown’s record. If ever a guilty
wretch justly deserved the pus-
wWoeui ho received* uJnbn RrtSn
deserved hie.-—Marietta Journal.
a understand th oar good
friend, Charley W illi i ham, of the
Free Press, was bigl r indignant
when Mr. Loeke, in I speech at
Cartersville, asserted hat the In
dependents were “next beet” to
toe Republicans, and were going
in tho direction thut would make
them just ouch Republicans as he
(Locke) was in good time. Charley
vociferously expressed hie dissent
for some time, and finally left the
meeting in disgust. The truth is,
friend >udingham is a Democrat
in principle, born and trained that
way, and if ha did not per
mit personal attachments to cloud
his foresight, he would be as good
an “organized” Democrat to-day
as he was before 1872, when he
used to denounce us and othare ot
the party ae‘‘slack wade” for sup
porting Greely.—Rome Courier.

BISHOP GEORGE F. PIERCE.
The thousand* of friends of Bia-
hop Pierce will be pleased to hear

turn in almost its full strengih of
his nuequtled voice. In referring
to the Bishop's presence at a camp-
meeting, near his home in Han
cock, the Sparta Sunueum pays
him tbe following eloqueut trib
ute:

We wanted to see a inan who was

walked down to the other end of
the verauder and was introduced
to Col. B. I was going to approach
him leisurely, but the hasty drum
mer rushed right at him :
Bo you At e carrying six bullets
about with you, eh?”
“Yes sir.”
“l)o tney pain you much?”
“Oh! no.”
“Lauds alive ! but I don’t see
how you lived through it. llow
many battles were you in ?”
“Eighteen.”
“Did you get all these bullets at
on9 time?”
“Yes, all at once. You want
to kuow wnero they are located?”
“Exactly—exactly.”
“I'm carrying’em iu this pocket
to-day,” was the quiet reply, ae he
fished down und brought up six
old bullets picked off the battle
field. The drummer was so mad
about it that he wouldn’t eat

HUE NCR.
A little boy wanted a drum. His
mother, wiiluug to give him an im
pressive lesson, suggested that if he
should pray for it, posaibly he might
receive one. So at night, when
ready for bed, he knelt down and
prayed:
“Now I lay me down to sleep,
(I want a dram.)
I pruy the Lord my soul to keep,.
(I want a drum.)
If I shonid die before I wake.
(I want u drum.)
I pray the Lord my sonl to fake,
(I want a drum.)
Iiis lather, who hud been let into
the secret, had msunwile quietly
placed a drum on th bed. As the
youngster rose, and Ins eyes fell ou
the drum, he exo’aimed in an eta*
phato manner that banished nil
serious thoughts from tne minds of
his listeners: Whe-s in the devil
did that drum come from?’’ The an
ticipated benefits from that lesson
may probably be considered as lost.
