(Written for The Chicago Ledger.) Buried Hopes. JiY ETT1JJ :.I. HOLTON. It was night., with storm and sleeting, And the hall rain idly beating On my window pane; And the low wind sobbing, sighing, Seemed to whisper of the dying, In its fitful strain. And the world in darkness sleeping. And the darkness wildly weeping Out its sad refrain. Brought but memories sad to cheer rue; Buried hopes seemed hovering near me— Hopes that were in vain! Buried hopes? Ah! there we're equal; All must know the sting—the sequel To a bright hope slaia As, with sore hearts we inter them, Begging memory ne’er to stir them, From their hopeless pain. Out into the darkness wandering My soul wen f, o’er memory pondering...... Memory with its pain It paused nor, yet often queried Of the bright hopes that were buried Ne’er to rise again. But I think they,heard its calling For my soul, mid scones appalling. Gave them back again, One by one, into my keeping, While the darkness kept on weeping O’er my silent pain. Now though dead, they’re always by me, Like sad spirits hovering near me, Mocking at my pain ; Whispering words of silent meaning, Words* which set my soul to dreaming Of what migh t have been. Death alone can ond the mission Of these hopes without fruition, With their weary pain. But on yonder shoreless shore, In the realms of evermore, They shall live again. Talcing Advantage of Leap Year. A Detroiter who was out in the, coun¬ try the other day to look after some poultry, got stuck in a mud hole, al though having a light buggy and a strong horse. He got out, took a rail tho the fence, and was trying to ory the vehicle out, when along came a strapping young woman about . 2o years of age. She halted, surveyed the atinn, and said; ‘ You stand by the horse while I heave on the rail, and don’t be afraid of get- * mad on your hands and hoots.* Their unir-od efforts released t-he vc hide, and the Detroiter returned many j thanks, and asked her to got g S in “““ and ude. ouo iiesuatod, looked up and down the the road, and finally said ; ‘Stranger, I’m blunt spoken. Who are you /' Ho gavo his name and residence, and she continued: •I’m over 25, worth $500 in cash, know all about housework— and this is leap year.’ ‘Yes, I know, but for heaven’s sake don’t ask me to marry yon !’ ho replied as ho saw the drift, ‘See here,’ she continued, looking ,. bun square . m the ey.e, ‘1 m a straight gir . wear a No. 7 shoe, and I like the looks of you-’ ‘Yes but don’t - don't talk that wav - t0 me ‘Stranger, ‘its Leap year, and I’m go ing to pop.? Will you have me or not ?’ ‘1—I’m already married !’ he said, ‘Honest Injun f» Yes!’ ‘Well, that settles me, and I TOOn , t ride ! I’ll take a cut across tho field to old Spoouer’s. He’s got four sons and a fool nephew, and I’ll begin on the old man and pop t! e crowd clear down to the idiot, for I’vo slumraixed around this world just as long as I’m going to! Goodxbye, sir—no harm done !’ To take a strong-willed, energetic man into the church, and give him nothing to do, is a great folly. Such men must be active. If you do not give them something to do inside the chuicli, the devil will be likely to, find them a j >b out . I j. Mrs. Spriggie. Not a week later Airs. Sprite pre¬ sented herself again at IJriarley, The black dress had suffered visibly from contact with muddy roads on the way. The black sun boDuet was limpor and rustier than ever. Their wearer drop od into a chair, and crossed her hands dejectedly on her knees. •Recoil ye done heered 'bout my gal bein' mar ied,’ she said, without raising her eyes from the floor. ‘Yes, I was much surprised to hoar it,’ the mistress replied. ’Shu must bo very young.’ “Yeo she is tol'abio young, is sis— ' goin’on fifteen. But now, I was married at thirteen—I was so P She looked up quickly, but catching an expression ef disapproval on the mistress's face, she east her eyes again upon the, floor ‘The west on it is,' continued she, die ain’t got a cent, nor he can’t make one nutber.’ ‘ Why did you let your daughter take him, then!’ ‘Well, ho come a dwellin' round sis, an' he'd alius a powder-horn a bangin' on to himi so I jest’lowed he'd a gun, and could keep sis in coons and pus sums.

I In most things in this world that in¬ volye error, women suffer more keenly for tboir imprudence.than men. Take unequal marriages, for instance, of which so many have occurred of late. A young man who marries beneath him is to be pitied; but we cannot comrois , erato him as we do a young gir! who j i, a3 perpetrated an equally fat i X>1 an— | der. from which //c had all choose. the world lie before wields, him by 1 to | mt reaching *™ ] ri scepter * ht ’ a mn than , re Powerful she. Copbetua farther i may woo the beggar maid, and the ; chances are as ten to one that the beg i gar maid, wearing royal robes, shall do him honor on tho throne she shares. Were the cases reversed, tho old home¬ ly proverb would be far more likely to i be realized, that “you cannot make a silken purse of a sow,s car/’ A man's j character and tastes are generally formed before he ia 21. But a woman's desire to please is so great that she may be almost entirely remolded after marriage, so tho marriage be one of love, and the husband good enough, patient enough and wise enough But if to conduct the experiment. a woman, whose life is spent in her home, makes a mistake with regard to him who is te be the king and lord, the house-bond and support of the home, j she is a fit object for the pity of angels and men. Then look after the inti - macies of your daughters, and do not leave them to rely upon their own judg¬ ment, however wise they may seem for their yeras.

A DRUNKARD’S WIFE If thorn bo a lonely woman arnid the multitude of lone and sorrowful women more to be pitied than another, I think it is a wife looking upon one she has promised to honor, laying upon the bed with his hut and lien's on. Her com¬ forter, who sworn at her so- long as he could epmtk at all. Her protector, ut¬ terly unable to brush a (ly from his own face. Her companion, laying in tbo stupor of death, with none of its solemn dignity. Ashe is entirely unconscious of her acts, f wonder if she never em¬ ploys the slowly passing moments in taking down her old idol, her ideal from its place in her memory and comparing it with the broken defacod image before her. 'Of all poor, broken idols, scatter¬ ed into fragments tor the divine pa¬ tience of womanhood to gather, and ce¬ ment with tears, suen a ruin as this sec me, the most.impossible to mold anew into any form of comeliness. And if there is a commandment seemingly im¬ possible to obey, it is for a woman to love a. man she is in deadly fear of, honor a man she can’t help but be ashamed of, obey a man who cannot speak his commands intelligently The theory of recognizing our friends in the future world iso, beautiful one. and worthy of much thought, lint f think it is.commendable to try to keep our friends in a condition to recognize us in this world, try to keep a man while lie is alive, so bo will know his wife and children, and noi;, as often occurs, turn them out into the storm of winter midnight or murder them in his frenzy. A special telegram from Washington states that Collector Clark, of Georgia is there in con ference with Commission¬ er Ramis, in regard to more expeditious measures for prosecuting tho war on moonshiners. According to Mr. Clark, the difficulty to be overcome is that tho revenue officers in our state, while pur suing illicit distillers, are often frustra¬ ted by the offenders escaping over the border into another state, and the officers of course cannot follow under their commissions. It has been deci¬ ded that revenue officers of the diflNr out states shall co-operate, and those of a state into which tho offenders may flee shall be ready with commissions under that state for the pursuing officers, and also shall join in the pursuit. This new departure lias particular reference to Georgia, North Carolina aud South Carolina,— 6 ainsvillc Eagle. The following is an extract from Dr. Taimages’ sermon; “What is a man?’ He is a soul wit’, imperishable hopes high as the throne of god. What is a man? He is tbo battle-ground for three worlds—with lighter darkness. A man!
