How to Treat a Wife.
hirst, got a wife, secondly, bo pa
tient. You may havt) great trials
ami perplexities in your business j
•villa the world, but do not, there-!
fore, carry to your home a cloudy
or contracted brow. Yoxr wife
may have many trials, which
though of less magnitude, may lie
Imrd for her to bear, A kind, con
ciliatory word, a tender look, will
do wonders in chasing from her
brow all clouds of gloom. You
encounter your ditli mlties in open
air, fanned by heaven's cool breezes;
but your wife is often shut, in front
those reviving influences, atul her
health fails—bor spirits loso their
elasticity. But, O! bear with her.
Shelias trials and sorrows to which
you are a stranger, but which your
tenderness can deprive of all their
anguish. Notice kindly her efforts
to promote your comfort. Do not
receive all it r good offices as a mat
ter of course, aud pass them by, at
the same tuna being very sure to
observe any omission of wlrat you
may consider duty to you. Do nut
treat her with indifference, if you
would not soar and palsy her heart,
which, watered by kindness, would,
to the last day of your existence,
throb with constant and sincere af
fection for you Sometimes yield
your wishes to hors. Her prefer
encos may boas strong as yours.
Bcgunl it as an indulgence to your
self to yield sometimes, THnk
you it is not as difficult for her to
give up always? Is there not dan
ger sho will doom you selfish? With
such an opinion s m cannot love as
she might. Again: Show yourself
a manly man, lit it your wife may
look up to you, and feel that v ui
will act nobly, and can coufide in
your juilgmont.
Pearls of Thought.
Quarrels would be short-lived it
the wrong wore only on one side.
Slones first heard at a mother's
knee him i.ever wholly forgotten, a
little, spring that never dries up on
your journey through scorching
years.
A sml truth, half of our forebo
dings about our neighbors are but
our own wishes, which we arc
ashamed to utter in any other form
The worthiest men uro most ins
jured by slanders; ns uo usually
find that, to be the best fruit which
the birds have scon picking at.
Sincerity is liko liuvoling in a
plain beaten road, which common
ly brings a man sootier to liin jour
ney's etui than byways, iu which
men often lose themselves.
Let, us not forget dial every sta
tion in life is nececHary; that eneli
dm. ervos our respect; lln l not the
station itself buttlio worthy fulfill
ment of its duties and ies honor to
man.
Fashion is a style of dross which
is oricrinatcd by the dmni-monde,
either to hide their defects or to ex
hibit their beauty, and which the
rest of tlie world follows as religi
ously us thought it were a revela
tion.
Cotton by Counties.
The cotton crop of 1879.80 was
officially counted, and we piesont
this morning the result in the state
by counties. This table gives ti c
nciuii produtiion of each county
the facts having been ascertained
on each plantation and patch. It
will be seen that the chief cotton
counties of the state aro as fol
lows:
Burke, 29,172 bale"; Washington
23,058—-Houston, 19,099 —Troup,
18,655; Coweta—] 6,282; Mori
wether, 15,154; Hancock, 15,0 U);
Floyd, 14 545—Jefferson, 13,377,
and Cobb, 13,092 bales. This li t
comprises all t.lio comities that pro
duced more than 13,000 hales, Bar
tow, Greene, Gwinnett, Harris
Henry, Monroe, Oglethorpe, Pike,
Stewart, Sumte.t, Talbot, Walton
and Wilkes are each credited will
more than 13,000 bales.
A Shower of Toads in Dela
ware.—A shower of toads is re
ported to have fallen a day or two
ago near Delaware City, about
twelve miles from Wilmington.
The reptiles appeared after a vio
lent storm. They vary from half
an inch to an inch in length, and
are very numerous. The farmers
of the vicinity are both puzzled and
annoyed over the phenomenon.
It is unlawful in Massachusetts
to keep a drinking liar in any place
not visible from a public street, and
screens or other obstruction to the
view are prohibited, as well as any
arrangement of bottles and casks to
effect the same purpose. This law
is now strictly enforced in Boston,
where, in many instances, th bars
have to be removed to front rooms,
and uinlowa cu' 1 Ugh the walls.
Wisa and Otherwise.
Grass gets its dew—about the
only tiling in this world that does.
Every lie, says Owen, must be
thatched with another, or it will
soon rain through.
The young mau who wants to
get up with the sun must not sit
up too into with thu daughter.
‘My wife,* remarked Fitzucodle,
‘is fairly crazy over tho spring fash
ions. Sim's got the delirium trim
ming.'
Who says it’s unhealthy to sDep
in feathers ? Look at the spring
chicken, and see how tough lie is.
Do not tell a man he lies. It is
vulgar. Say that his conversation
suggests to your mind a summer
resort circular.
Sunday may be n very solemn
sort of day, but thero'u a sadder
day comes just before it.
A man never wants to be an ac
complished linguist so much ns
when ho has trodden on a bit of
orange peel and lies flat on his
back in consequence. At such n
time it requires much more than
the vocabulary of any one lan
guage to express his feelings.
Little Johnny had been caught,
by his aunt teasing a fly. ‘Johnny,'
said she; suppose some great boast
a thousand limes bigger than your-,
self should tease you and perhaps
eat you all up ? I hope,said John
ny, he'd tool as bad as I do when I
swallow a fly.
A Noisy Booster.—At a recent
poultry show a follow who was mak
ing himself ridiculously conspicu
ous at last broko out. Call these
here prize fowls ? Why they ain't

My f.dher raised tho biggest roos

Don't doubt it,' remarked a by
stander, ami tho noisest, too.'
There is nothing like being pro)}
erly urnrud and equipped for the
bitlles of life. Siill, few are in tho
happy condition of tho Irishman
who sent a letter to a friend saying
that while lie was writing ho hail a
pistol in both hands and a sword
in tho other.
it is easy to love our neighbor so
lung us In's hospitality holds out;
but when thu summer season is
over and we go back to town with
the feeling Unit he aud his family
will return our visit of six weeks in
tho winter,our love changes to hate,
and we hope lit) may have some do
mestic affiction.

Miss Pmudfut is one of tho love
liest girls in southern Kansas, and
a year ago vvus the recipient of
much admiring attention from the
opposite sex; but now there is a
disposition on the part of tho young
men to stay away from her. The
change is the fact that three of her
suitors have recived gunshot
wounds while in her company. It
is not known who tho assassin is,
but ho is supposed to bo somebody
who,, being unable to secure the
prize himself, is determined that
nobody else shall do so.
