BY A. W. BELLAWi
IV B.
They say to*n!ght is Christmas Eve, and high
as I could reach,
I've bung my stockings on the wall, and left
a kiss on each.
I left a kiss on each for Him who’ll fill my
stockings quite:
ne never came before, but 0, I'm sure He will
to-night. •
And to morrow 'll be the day our blessed
Christ was born,
Who came on earth to pity me, whom many
others scorn.
A ud why it is they treat me so indeed I can
not tell,
But while I love Him next to you, then all
seems wise and well,
I long have looked for Christmas, Mother—
waited all Ih" year;
And very strange it is indeed to feci its dawn
so near;
But to-morrow 'll be the day I so hare prayed
to see, ,
And I long to eU and fftake, and find wha'
it will bring to me. *
The snow is iu the street, and through the
window all the day
I've watched the little children pass: they
seemed so glad and gay !
And gayly did they talk about the gifts the;
would receive :
0, all th« world is glad to-night, for this is
Christmas Eve !
And, Mother, on the cold, cold floor I’ve put
my little shoe—
The other's torn across the toe, and thiugs
might there slip through;
I've set my little shoe, Mother, and it for you
sh*ll he.
For I know tl at He’ll remember you while He
r.'un mb: is me.
So lay me in my bed, Mother, and bear my
prayers aright.
He never came before, bat 0, I’m sure He
will to-night.
MIDNIGHT.
.Mother, is it the morning yet? I dreamed
that it was here;
I thought the sun shose through the pane, so
blessed and so clear.
I dreamed my li'tle stockings there wers full
us they could hold.
Bat it's hardly morning yet, Mother—it is so
dark and cold.
I dreamed the bells rang from the church
where the happy people go,
And they tang good.will to all tnen in a lan
guage that 1 know.
I thought I took from oil the wall my little
stockings there.
And on the floor I emptied them—such sights
there never were 1
A doll was in there, meant for me, just like
those little girls
Who alwiys tin□ away from m<; and 0, it bad
ettch curls!
I kissed it on its painted cheek; my owu are
not ao sweet,
Though people used to stop to pit and praise
them in the street.
And, J/other, theie were many things that
would have pleased you too;
For He who had retueiuheied uie had not for
gotten you.
But 1 otilv dreamed 'twas morning, and yet
’tis far away,
Though well 1 know that lie will come before
thecarlyday.
So I wilt put toy dream aside, though I know
nty dream was true,
And -nep, /mi d'exin my dream again, and
rise at morn with you.
CHRISTMAS MOKN'.

All night have 1 waked with weeping till the
la ils are ringing wild,
All nit'll h.ve 1 wak -d with my sorrow, ami
lain iu my tears, like a child.
For i ver against the wall as empty as they
can he,
The limp little storking hang, aud my heart is
breaking in me !
Your vision was false as the world, 0 darling
dreamer aud dear I
And how can 1 neat you to wake, and fml do
Christinas here'(
Better louand I were asleep in the slumber
whence none may start
And O, those einn' ‘ suckings I I could fill
them out of my heart I
No Chiistiuas tor vou . r me, darling; your
kisses were ail in vain;
I have given your kisses back to you over
aud over again;
I have lolded you to my breast with a moan
ing no one hears;
Your heart is happv in dreams, though your
hair is damp with my tears.
lam out oi tieai t and Dope; lam almost out

The world is cruol and cold, and only Christ
is kind : , , ,
And it ucti mu«t b" home and forborne; but

That ever hath lain on mv life are tfosc little

fFrom the Chicago Times.
Tlie Prosperity oi tlie South.
Wade Ilampton’B address before the
agricultural State Fuir of Georgia, a
tew days ago, was one of the most in
structive and appropriate addresses
ever delivered upon a like occasi n in
the United State-. It win evidently
a work on w hich the speaker had be
stowed much thought It gives proof
that it was a work conscientiously per
formed. The speaker did not appear
before his audience to make any dis
play ol uratory, or attempt any tl gtits
of eloquence, but to speak plainly cn
the iuteresls repneenled at the Fair,
and present such facts and statements
connected with all departments ol ag
riculture in the South as would be of
practical beuutit to the farmers and
planters of that section.
The address was admirable for the
simplicity of its erraugernent, for the
clearness ol i‘.s style, lor the variety of
its iul'oi malion, and for its many sug
gestions tor improvement in dealing
with the various crops raised in the
Southern States. Ut the many topics
to which Hampton alluded, we shull
notice but two or three, from which
the reader may judge of the merits and
purpose ol the whole address, lu
speaking of the education of the young
men of the South, he said he should
recommend thorough instruction in ag
riculture, commerce, civil sod mechan
ical engineering, au i mining, and ap
p iod chemistry, and added; “Could
such a course of instruction be gener
ally adopted througnoul the South,
and the facilities for obtaining it be
placed within the reach of our youug
men, we should hnd among those who
are soon to take our places men not
only qualihed to develop ail of tho re
sources of our country, but competent
to shape its destiny for all uouuraule
and noble ends,”
As the purpose of this articlu is to
commend ami invite attention to the
address, with a view of deducing tharo
from sundry lessons sadly needed by a
larg* number ol Christian and “loyal"
men in the north, we present a part of
what Hurnp’.on said about the negro;
“My old slaves are cultivating the
land on which they have lived for
years, and there have been a constant
and marked improvement iu their in
dustry in each year since their eman
cipation, though they have not yet at
tain id the same ethciency us laborers
as they formerly possessed. I have
promised to put up for them a school
house and church, and to pay a por
tion ol the salaries of their teachers.—
a system, if generally adopted, would
tend greatly to hx the laborers to the
soil, and would, by adding to their
content am! enjoymeat, result in vust
ultimate benefit to the landlord. That
kind treatment, just dealing, and sin
cere otiorte to impirove their condition
are not without effect upon them is
proved by the fact, gratifying to my
self, that I an now od my way to Mi*-
sissippi by the request of hundreds of
negroes, besides my own laborers, to
advise them what course to pursue iu
the approaching election there.”
It is not strange that Wade Hump
ton should so deal with h;s negroes,
and speak concerning the treatment
the race should receive in the Bouth.
He has beeu guided by a cultivated in
tellect and a kind and honest heart,
and his ideas of the course which
should be pursued toward the blacks,
and the friendship he leula for them,
a.e shared oy the majority of those
who are generally termed Confederate
leaders.
In our Into civil war, Hampton was
prominent uniting those leaders. He
was the last to yield to the Union ar
mies lie fought them with a skill,
courage, and persistency wtiicb extort
ed thuir admiration lie only yielded
when overwhelming numbers, and
starvation iu Ilia little baud of followers
taught him that further resistance
would only result, in a useless sacrifice
of life When tie cutrendereU, hev.id
he wou'tl implicit y obey the rightlul
authority of the Federal Govt rument,
and in all t iugs conduct himself us a
true and faitldul citizen, lie was en
titled to belief, ills whole life had
pioved him to be an honest man Ho
belieyed in the docti iuu of seces-ion,
and braved deatu oil many a weli
fougtit field ill ils defence. When it
was uvsrthrowu by force of arms, iie
manfully accepted the decision, and
pledged himself, in good iaim to ahtu
by it, and accent ai j aal consequence*
resulting ft<>m it/
For all of these reasons, no doubt
should have been entertained of Ills
tiulh and ln,n r In uodiiiou to them,
ll would u.tVe Lieu madness for him to
have et.tertttiue'l any hope ot renewing
the war. All considerations of seltisti
po icy and pttrMiu.il iliter eM placed t.un
under D>in>ls to redeem his p edges in
all sincerity.
lie belongs to a u'ass, and is a rep
resentative of that class. VVe do nut
bore say that all ol the Cotd'tderate
leaders arc ttie peels of Hampton in
intellect uud moiui wort", but we do
say that a major ty of them are distin
guished by tne same qualities which
i Lai tic erize Hampton, and wore edu
cated in the same school oi po itiesand
in -rule, and were inlijenced by tne
same associations. There ure extrum
ists, smd bad men, and vindictive par
ti-ans among tnetn, but as a class tney
art the best men there is in the O. u.n,
and are to-day the only men to whom
the negroes c.tu safely look lor such as
sistance and protection as will lilt them
above their half burbarious state.
\Yl® were the Conted<ra.e leaders?
They wtro CoDgr.tssuien ami tsiate offi
cers, and members of the (S ate Legisla
tures, and members of the learned pro
fessions, and judges and scholars. They
were the beat men iu the iSautli, in
Drains «nd integrity, and the only m u
qualified to govern. W'ueu they surreu
tiered, their acceptance of the decision
made by the War, and their pledges to
be true citizeus, ought to have been be
lieved whbeut doubt or hesitaucy.—
Their honesty entitled them to tbi.-, and
all of their interests bound them to keep
iheir pledget.
To say, m view of ti e facts above sta
trd, that such men as Loo, Wade Hamp
ton, Alex. 11. Stephen* and ller=chel
V. i oiSeou, and tbuusauds of o her
Confederate leaders, whose Oily crime
was that of r.auding by tneir S-ates ia
a desperate struggle w>th tno U..i cd
Slates, ought to be tr ated as outlaws,
aud deprived of all po.ituai privileges,
is a libel upon the white men of the
country aud our brothers iu blood, which
ought lo blister the tougue ot ihe dem
agogue who will presume to give it ut
terance.
To say that national safety demands
that tucb men shall be dis!ranohi.-ed a id
made subj- ct lo carpet-baggers aud ne
groes, just emancipated fr m slavery,
and to euact that they shall be thus
treated, is an infamy which should make
every tnan execrable who has given it
his support and counteuai.c--.
Compare the Sou'h to-day wi h what
it was at the close of (he war. Then it
was desolate. Fire and fl iod had swept
over it, and had para yzed industry, to
many quarters, famine vas oausuming
the lives the swoid had spared. Now,
in spite of all the evils wn-ugh’- by mil
itary despotism, and of the eiiines and
disorder encouraged by negro and car
pet-bag rule, it has uearly restored ihe
prosperity which blessed it brf>re tbe
war, aud looks confidently forward ’o a
career of unexampled growth in all that
make States truly great.
What has been the magic of its re
storation ? ’Vhat agencies have raised
it, amid so mach to discourage and ob
struct, from fertility to its fields and
wealth to its people? Us system of la
bor was overthrown. The blackness of
the desolation which the “bummer”
1 aves behind h'tn was in all of its
States Is levees were broken, tnd
stagnant pools submerged its choicest
plantations. It was without capital and
without credit, and its young men, and
those most full of ardor and hope, were
in graves where death consigned them
when they stood last for 'the lost cause.’
It has been saved from anarohv which
would have destroyed all law but that
of force, and redeemed from bankruptcy
and made again to blossom, under oir
oumstances wbioh might well have dis
couraged the stoutest heart, by tho man
agement industry and courage of tho
Confederate leaders.
For such order as has prevented the
absolute reigu of ruffianism there since
tho reconstruction infamy had birth; for
the organizatica of industrial forces; for
: ho influence wbioh restrains crime by
teaching thorough example; and for the
projects intended to benefit sooiety aa a
whole, the south is indebted to men of
the Wade Hampton order. Shorn of all
political power, they have been the only
power working for good.
