‘Vos, 1 ivu!eml>or, Mr. Gourly/
she replied, sadly.
‘He made a request for me then
which it was not in your power to
grant; 1 am come to make a similar
one for him now. Roger loves you,
Alice. Jle has loved you all these
long, weary years, though you will
at least believe 1 did not know it
them’
“Poor Roger!’ Alice said softly.
‘You care about him? you wi
make him happy even at this late
hourt Tell me Alice, that you love
my brother 1’
‘Yes, Mr. (jourlny, Ido. Why
should I deny it? 1 have loved
him always, though I did not know
that he cared about me, and if the
little life that is left me can make
him happier, I witl devote it to him
gladly, proudly—poor Roger! You
sec I am too old for pretenses, Mr.
Holiday, and I fear I am dyin
thoreibre, 1 tell you all.’
‘Dying, Alice? Mo, no! you will
live many years yet, I hope, to
make my dear brother happy brave,
loyal, great-hearted Roger. Let
me scud him to you now, and, Alice,
for my old and long affectionate’s
sake, make him happy. He de
serves it, and that is the only way
I can ever help to repay the devo
tion of his life.’
‘I love him,’ Alice replied Bim-
ply, ‘I cannot do any more.’
In their lodging John Gourlay
found his brother pacing restlessly
up and down.
‘Roger, I've found out your se
cret and hers,’ he said, laying both
his hands on his shoulders; ‘loyal,
faithful friend, go to her; she loves
you, she is waiting for you.’
‘Poor Alice! how she must have
suffered!'
‘How we all have suffered 1 hut
it's nearly over now, Roger—the
grief, pain, regret. It’s all clear
and bright. Roger, dear friend,
can you forgive me;’
‘Forgive you, John? Say rath
er cun you forgive me?’
‘True to the last,’ John murmur
ed as he wrung his brother’s hand.
‘Now, Roger, go to her; she is
waiting for you. She loves you—
loves you, Roger! Good-bye, and
may 3-011 both be happy!'
Late that evening, when Roger
Gourlay returned home full of a
deep, quiet gladness, lie found his
brother sitting in an easy chair near
the window, apparently asleep.
The full moon shone down on his
pale face and showed a stnilo on
his lips; his hands were clasped on
an open book that rested on his
knee. The attitude was life-like,
but at the very first glance Roger
felt that his brother was dead. The
doctors said he ha' 1 , dud of disease
of the heart. Perhaps they’ were
right. More people die of that
malady than the world knows of.
‘Always pay as you go/ said an
old man to las nephew. ‘Rut,uncle,
suppose I haven’t anything to pay
withf ‘Then don’t go.’
Kick your corn through a win
dow-glnss, and the pane is gone for
ever.
A boy who can’t walk half a mile
on an errand because he is so tired,
will ride a bycycle ten miles, atul
then get mad because the sun goes
down so quickly .-Oil City Derrick,
The idea that gunpowder and
whisky will make a soldier feel
brave is all nonsense. Put him be-
luud a stone wall if you want to
see his spine stiffen.
‘Bridget, what became of the
tallow I greased my boots with this

The present year is pregnant with
stirring and important events. Gen
eral elections are to be held for Na
tional, State, and county oilicos, and
the interest and excitement (involved
by the contest will be intense. Me
ares of the most vital character, alio,
to the future of the country, such as
the modifications sought to be inaug
urated in pur system of finance, the
projected revision of thp tariff, oui
Indian policy, etc., are to be discussed
before the people,and every intelli
gent person should take a newspaper.
The proprietors of tho
TkI.KCUIAMI AND MKSSENGlilt
are resolved to fulfill all the require
ments of their position 1 iy keeping
abreast of the news of the whole
world as fast as it can be transmitted
by ocean cable, or the telegraphic
lines of the country. They will ulso
spare no pains to advance the inter
ests of Georgia and tho sections es
pecially in which it so largely circu
lates, and while advocating, with all
the zeal and ability they possess, the
principles of the Democratic party,
will-yet pursue a conservative and
moderate course upon all questions.
A new dress, just purchased, will
make all of tho editions handsomer
than ever. Our mammoth weekly
contains sixty-four columns, aud is
one of the best and cheapest publica
