Tho Guide-Post.
11V BAYARD TAYLOR.
D'ye know the road to tie bar’ll o’ flour?
At break o’ day lot down iho bars,
And plow y’r wheat field hour by hour,
Till sundown—yes, till shado o’ stars.
You peg away, the livelong day,
Nor loaf about, nor gape aouud;
And that’s the road to the thrashin’ floor,
And into the kitchen, I'll bo bound.
D’ye know tho roads whore tho dollars lay?
Follow tho rod cents here and there:
For if’the man loaves thorn, I can guess
He won’t find dollars anywhere.
D’yo know the road to Sunday’s rest?
Jist don’t o’ week-days be afraid;
In field and workshop do y’r best,
And Sunday comes itself, I’vo hoard.
On Saturday it’s not far off,
And brings a basketful o’ cheor
A roast and lots o’ garden stuff,
Aud, like as not, a jug o’ boor.
D’ye know tho road to poverty?
Turn in at any tavern sign;
Turn in—it’s tempting as can be:
There's bran new cards and liquors fine.
In the last tavern there’s a sack,
And, when tho cash y’r pocket quits,
Just hang the wallet on y’r back,
You vagabond! see how it fits!
D’ye know what road to honor leads,
And good old age?—a lovely sight —
By way o’ temperance, honest deeds,
And tryin’ to do your duty right.
And when the road-forks ary aide,
And you’re in doubt which one it is,
Stand still and let your conscience guide;
Thank God, it can t lead much amiss.
Aad now tho road to chureh-yard gate
You needn’t ask. Go anywhere,
For whether roundabout or straight,
All roads at last’ll bring you there.
Go, fearing God, but ah lovin’ more!
I’ve fried to be honest guide—
You’ll find the grave has got a door,
And somethin’ for you t other side.
Tim’s kit,
It surprised tho shiners and newsboys
around the post-office the other day, to
bee “Lirnpy Tim” como among them in
a quiet way, and hear him say;
“Boys, I want to sell my kit. Here's
two brushes, a hull box of blacking,
a good stout box, aud the outfit goes
for two ehillio'sJ'
*Goin’ away, Timf queried one.
‘Not 'zactly, boys but I want a quar¬
ter the awfulest kind just now.’
‘Goin’ on a 'ecarsionf asked.another.
‘Not to-day, but I must have a quar¬
ter,’
he answered.
One of the lads passsefi over the
change, and took tho kit, aud Tim
walked straight to the countiDg-room
of a daily paper, put down his monoy,
and said:
‘I guess I kin writs it if you give me
a pencil.'
With slow-moving fingers he wroto a
death notice. It went into the paper
almost as he wroto it, but you might
not have seen it. He wrote:
‘Died.— Litul Tod—-of scarlet fever;
aigod three yere. Funeral tosrnorror,
gon up to Devin: left won bruther.'
‘Was it your brother?' asked tho
cashier.
Tim tried to brace up, but ho couldn’t,
The big tears came up, his chin quivere
ed, and ho poioted to tho notice on the
counter aud gasped:
‘I—I bad to sell my kit to do it, b—
but he had his arms aroun' my neck
when he d—died!'
He hurried away home, but the news
went to the boys, and gathered in a
group and talked, Tim had not been
home an hour before a baro-footed boy
left the kit on the doorstep, and in the
box waG a boquet of flowers which bad
been purchased in the market by pen
nies contributed by the crowd of rag

ged, but big-hearted urchins. Did God
ever make a heart which would not
respond if the right chord was touched?

PostfiAppeal.
A newspaper correspondent repre¬
senting a paper Dot a thousand miles
from Louisville was fooliug around in
the carshed a few days ago. A loco¬
motive was standing on a track, the
engineer having stepped off to see a
maD. The correspondent took charge
of the thing and in a moment it started
off’ with a full bead of steam. The
engineer jumped into the cab and stop
ped the engiue. When the correspous
dent was arraigned before the Recor
<J-T8 he stated that ho ‘got on the thing
to look at the machinery, and accidents
ally touching something tbo dod-gasted

G LTTE ALT'S CASE.
Washington dispatch to the Atlanta
Post-Appeal, Get. 13, says;
Scoville, Guiteau's counsel, seems
anxious to have the assassin's caso pro¬
ceed a little. He wants him put to
plead, and then he will move for two
months’ delay for preparation. The
District Attorney is not in so much of a
hurry for some reason, but the arraign¬
ment is promised for tome day this
week. The assassin is said to be grow¬
ing ugly. His counsel says: T tried to
obtaiD from him names of persons, for
witnesses, in towns and other paces that
he bad been, for the purpose of finding
out bis conduct and condition of mind
before coming to this city. He would
not give me a single name, and refused
to converse about the caso, The jailors
report that about sundown yesterday,
while Scovhle was in the warden’s
office with Guiteau, a rather neatly
dressed man, about six feet in height,
made his appearance, and said ho had
been sent to the jail to see Guiteau by
one of tho latter’s friends. Warden
General Crocker informed him that it
was an unseasonable hour, and that ho
could not see him. .The man reluctant¬
ly left. There is an impression tho
man came to the city for the express
purpose of killing the prisoner. A gen¬
tleman who saw Guiteau in his cell this
morning says ho found him sitting on
his bod reading a book. The prisoner’s
ayes were terribly bloodshot, the result
of a terrible high fever. He expressed
himself as being afraid his strength
would not last through the trial. Tho
assassin talked rapidly and incessantly,
nis health being the subject of his cons
versation. He complained greatly about
malaria.
The Small Boy.s Explanation
Angelica had invited her “best

had passed off harmoniously

’’Oh, raa/ yor oughterseeu Mr.

“Fred!’ screamed the maiden

dune crab—quickly placing hor hand
over the boy’s mouth.
“Tor oughter soen him,’’
the persistent informant after
his breath, and the embarrassed

“Freddie!' shouted the mother as
her frantic attempt to reach the
auricular appendage she upset the
making tents of the teapot in Mr. Lighted's

over his new lavender pantaloons.
“I was just goin’to say,’ the
frightened boy pleaded, between a cry
and an injured, whine, “he had his

“You boy.’, thundered the fathor,
“away to the wood shed. '
And the boy made for the
exit, exclaiming as he waltzed, “I
only goin' to say Mr. Lighted had
army clothes on aud I’ll leave it to him
if he didn’t.’
And the boy was permitted to roturn,
and the remainder of tho meal was spent
in explanations from tho family in re¬
gard to tho number of times Freddie had
to bo “talkod to' for using his

The Influential Woman.
We generally picture hor as a leader
of fashion state and beautiful the center
of her coterie. Her moral qualities are
not considered at all; aud that is where
we err. When the rich woman can show
to the world only a life of fashion aud
idleness, she ia deserving of open cen
oare and disgrace so long as there aro
hungry bodies minds or souls crying for
some of her abundance. To whom much
io given much is required. Let
opinion mete out itk wrath of
upon the faahienable. idle woman,
is a disgrace to her sex Because of
aimless useless life. Let the expression
“best society’ mean thq-e who do good
deeds, who leave the world happier and
better for haviag lived, instead of those
who have been most idle and aimless.
The “influential women’ of every com¬
munity are thope who are doing and
daring that the world may be made pur
or aud bettor whether they are fashion
able it matters uot.

Snake Stories.
A farmor io Devonshire once one told
me that lie caught a viper partially
nhiirur abling .it .it hv by » a blow fmm from a » «.„nr stout stick
and with the assistance of his men bound
it, still living in tho fork of a tree, (lie
was a kind hearted and fairly intelligent
man, who woulA not have tolerated any
ill treatment of a horse or dog
— far less have been guilty ot such
thing himself—but ho saw no cruelty
thus punishing the poor reptile,) There
they left it, striking with its fangs on all
sides in rage and agony. When they
returnod next day the viper had escap*
ed, hut tho limb of the tree was dry and
dead as though blasted with lightening!
I was young and hopeful at the time
I heard this talo and unwise enough to
do all in my power to dissuade the nar¬
