An Eloquent Passage.
U l) Pr. litice.
It eannot be that earth is man’s
only abiding jiluco. It cannot bu
that our life is a bubble cs3t up by
the ocgu of eternity to float a mo.
went upon it waves, and siiiK into
nothingness. Else, why these high
and glorious aspirations which leap
like angels from tho temple of our
hearts, forever w andering unsatisfi
ed? Why is it that the rainbow and
floods c me over us with a beauty
that is uot ot earth, and theu pass
off to leave us to muse on their
loveliness Why is it that stars
which hold their festival around the
midnight throne, are set abovo the
grasp of our limited for
ever mocking us with their utrao
proaehableglory? And finally, why
ispt that the bright forms of human
beauty are presented to our view
and taken from us, leaving the
thousand streams of our affections
to flow back in Alpine torrents up
on our hearts? Wo were burn for a
higher dostiuy than earth. There
is a realm where tho stars will be
spread out before us like islands
tnat slumber on tho ocean, and
where the beautiful beings that pass
before us like shadows, will stay
forever in our presence.
Elephants.
Colonel l’olloek, in Sports in
British Burraah, gives the following
particulars about the elephant
which will bo new to most leaders:
Elephants when asleep snore a good
deal and I have often seen them use
a foot for a pillow on which to rest
their lie,d. They are very human
like in many ways. They get a
piece of wood and use it as a toofh
picK, I'hey will plug a wound with
clay. They scratch themselves with
the tip if their trunk, and if they
cannot roach the part they tako up
a small branch and use that Ai a
rule, i.Lov aro frightened at hre; but
an elephant of the buttery at Asam
us and to help to put out tiros, an I
she would do what 1 never saw any
other animal of her kind do, and that
was, after a fa len buffalo’s throat had
been cut all but the vertahae, when
tol l to do so she would put her
foot on the neck, twist her tusk round
the horn and hand it up. Some
few of them will hand up birds after
being shot, but they don’t ttsua ly like
touching dead bodies.
Open to a Horse Trade-
A Michigander who was travel
ing through Indiana lust full with
a horse and buggy, drove up to a
farm house one day with his patent
washing machine, and disc vored
that he had li tppunod 0:1 a funeral.
Under such circumstances he deem
ed it best to boat a retro it, but
white unhitching his horse, one of
the party came out and incpiired:
Want anything, stranger?
W oil, no; I underslan 1 they are
holding Ituieral her .
Yes, sort of a funeral. Got any
thing to sell?
I have a parent washing machine,
but, under tho circumstances, I
don't fed like ‘
Never mind the circumstances,
interrupted iho man. Jim's lost
his wife, of course, but lie's got all
arrangements made to marry Ids
hired girl two weeks from to-night,
and it you've got anything there
you want to throw in on a boss
trade he won't let no fttnersl inter
fere with business. It's airly in tho
day yet, and wo do ot.r bnryin'
round here any time before dark!
Cur Ladies.
Sumter Republican: Our South
ern girls, many of ibi in, aro worthy
of great prai.se. A true womanhood
is a tiling of beauty und a jay for
ever, Mirny of our young lading
feel that a life worth livi ig for must
be a life of active industry, and they
with heroism take their part in the
great battle of life. The schoolroom
the store, the needle, tell their
worth, and with a patience and in
d it'try worthy of impress upon the
times in which they live. Such
girls are fitted for better things than
tramping the streets lost in cart
wheel hats, running from door to
door engaged in gossips, lounging
all day oil the sofa reading leu cents
novels; but feeling that womanhood
has a true mission upon earth, they
aro worthing for the good ot their
kind. Our industries, here some of
them, are filled by women, and it is
(he pride of appreciative mind and
hearts to knew and feci what a good
influence is exerted by some of the
ladies.
Captain Percival # a Cape Cod
mariner of the old school, was once
awakened in bis bunk by a ship
mate with the announcement that
the vessel was going to eternity.
Well, replied the captain, I've g...t
ten fritnds over there to one iu this
world; let her go. Aid he turned
over ant! went to sleep agaia.
All Sorts.
A nurse was tel.ini; ufcout n man who
had become so tcmnly worn out by dissi
pation that ho could not keep any food
ou hts stjmaoli, when ono cf her listeners
asked:
What does lie live ou then?
Ou ins relations, ma'am, replied tlio
nurse.
You nro on the wrong tack, said tho
pilots wife, when the hardy son ot the
loud-sounding sea f#t down ou it and
arose with tho usual exclamations. No
he replied, after a critical examination,
I'm on the light, tack, but shoot 1110 dead
it I ain't on tho wrong ea t of it. —Bur

A man in South Kansas tried tho old
plan of melting a bullet out of his gun
the other day. He leaves a taniiiy.
When Geneial Grant offered the
Chief Justiceship of the United States
to Roscoe Conkling,there was a great
amazement at his declining it. Judge
Jerry Black was asked if he could
guess what could possihlybe tho rea
son for such a course. Oh yes, said
the shrewd old Judge, tho sumo
reason 1 should have for declining
to be 1: tnperor uf China— doesn't
understand the language!
Mr 13 M Murphy, of Ellaville,,
while out hunting a few- days ago,
was shot in the eye accidentally by
cue of the party. The Wound, though
jininf il is uot serious. Burl says
he has enough of rabbit hunting.
A correspondent wants to Know

Young men, remember this: In

(foino lime ago, Mrs Drown, ol Allen
county, Ky., gave birth to twris. Not
withstanding there is lint lour r.in 11 ‘cs
diffeieaoe in their ages, yet one was born
in last end the other in 11182, one in
December ami the oilier on Monday.
The lecturer began, ‘There is a
fortune lying in wait 1 —Up jumped
a bullet headed fellow in ono cor
ner to remark, Well, I guess you're
bout right there, mister. Three
years ago he wasn't wuih a dollar,
lie's got a fortune now. Got it, as
you say by lying in weight. ’J'lio
bullet beaded man said no more,
but the lecturer was ill at ease dur

The wiJow of ex-President Polk
is reported to he in needy circum
stances. As Congress has recently
been engaged in granting pensions
to Mrs Lincoln and Mrs Tyler, it
should confer the same benefit on
Mrs Polk. Her husband reflected
as much honor on tho country as
did any President we have ever bad.
Quitman Free Press—Mr. W. S.
Tucker has ruised 5,000 cabbages
this season on his lot here in town.
These are worth, at lowest figures,
SSOO. The entire cost of labor and
fertilizers is about $lB0 —leaving a
clour profit of SO20 —from about a
ltalf acre. Yet our farming people
keep crying out “hard times" Now
it can't bo said, Oi, lie's got a
rich spot of ground, the lot in ques
tion is a bed of white sand, too
poor of itself to sprout cow peas,
that is before Mr. T commenced to
enrich it."
