AN IDYL OF THE KITCHEN.
In brown holland apron the stood in the
kitchen;
Her alceves were rolled up, and her cheeks
all aglow;
Her hair was colled neatly, when I, India-
tho dough.
Now, who could be neater, or brighter, or
sweeter.
Or who hum a song so delightfully low,
Or who look so slender, so grareful, so tender,
As Nancy, sweet Nancy, while kneading the
dough?
How deftly she pressed it, and squeezed It, ca
ressed it,
Ami twisted aud turned It, now quick and
sadness!
.Twfis my heart she was kneading as well as
the dough.
At last, when she turned from her pan to the
dresser.
She saw me and blushed, aud said shyly,
•• Please go.
Or my bread 1*11 be spoiling, In spite of my
toiling,
If you stand here and watch while I’m knead
ing the dough."

Following out this calculation to its legit
imate conclusion, the General pressed
upon the Springer committee that if the
busint u in nil the marshals’ offices 01 the
government had been transacted upon the
tame business methods and with the same
fidelity as in hi* office, the total expense of
that branch of the service would have been
only 6780JF14.80, n clear saving to the gov
ernment of 61.000,000, or about one-half the
whole amount expended. Or, to bring the
estimate to the northern district under the
average expenditures of United States
marshals. Gen. Longstrect claims to have
saved to the government 140.000, which
amount is left in the treasury at Washing
ton hut which, under the average system J
would have been expended In the various
channels in the district.
The marshal shrewdly thinks that the
saving of this 140.000, which might other
wise have been distributed among tin-
hungry, has whetted the wrath and goaded
to open hostility his opponents and ac
cusers.

Four Little Boys, a Wheelbarrow and the
Station House.
New York Herald.
The sqcaking of a wheelbarrow wa»
heard in New Church street at 9 o’clock a
few nights ago. As the barrow neared the
lights of .the Church street station U wa*
seen to be propelled by four very small
hoys, two of whom were struggling with
each handle. In the barrow lay the rather
limp form of a rather well dresaed old
roman., in the last stages of intoxication.
Half a down other small boya walked by
toe side of the barrow and prevented the
woman from falling out A little girl,
carrying abahy almost as big as herself,
brought up the rear of the group. All the
children were very email.
There was no cheering or noise as the
triumphal procession progressed. Bvcry-
tWng was quiet and conducted in an or-

Bismarck Tribune.
The other day a Bismarck gentleman
was coming up from Standing Rock and
stopjied to see a man who lives near the
Cannon Ball river. In response to his
knock at the door he heard a shrill,
sharp "Comp in!” and upon entering
found a sharp-faced, angular woman sit-
tfhg in tlie'room under an open scuttle-hole
leading into the loft above with a shot-gun
on her knee. "Is ?.he gentleman of the
house in?” he asked. "Yes sir; he air.’
Can I see him a moment?” "No sir; you
c&u’tsee a hair of ’im*.” ‘‘Why can t I,
madam? I would like to speak to him
on business.” "If you was a dyin’ an Jim
was the only doctor in Dakota, you couldn’t
sot an eye on him till he gives in an’ talks
decent. At dinner a while ago he told me to
pass ’im the apple soss. an’ I tol’ him it
waan’t aots, but aaas, an’ be said he kuowed
better, it was soss, an’ I tol’ him that when
he tuk a notion that a little apple sass’d
feel soothin’ to his stomach to say so. an’
he said he’d have that soss or die. Then
I tol’ him I’d defend that soss with my life,
and made a break for the shotgun, an’ he
made a break up through the scuttle inter
the lofL When ids senses come to him an*
lie gives in that sass is sass, he kin cum
down, but if he makes a break afore that
otrgoes the top of his bead. Thar sets the
sass, stranger, an’ thar’s Jim up in the loft
an’ that’s the way the matter stands jiat
now, an’ 1 reckon you’d better mosey
along an’ not get mixed inter the row/’
As the gentleman moved away he heai
her voice saying: "Jim, when you get
tired o’ yer durn foolin’ and want this sass
jes’squeal out.” And a gruff voice from
thedurksotue garret responded: "Soss.”

Tha Matter of Unvarying Unanimity.
Henry County Weekly.
Tho unvarying unanimity with which
Uie Atlanta Constitution reproduces
every flattering notice of Captain Jack-
son that appear* in certain rural heb-
douiadals is not less conspicuous than
its studied indifference to all compli
mentary mention of Colonel Ham
mond in the same connection. The
Constitution may succeeded in befool
ing tho innocent suffragists of Fultor
as to the immense popularity and avail
ability of Captain Jackson, hut in the
llffal reckoning it will find that tho
voters of Henry and adjoining counties
|are not so gullible.

Houston County. Ga., June 36th, 1883 —
Dear Sir: I have been using the "Planet
Jr.” bought of you, laying by ray corn. It
ju»t beats anything 1 ever saw in the shape
of a plow. 1 only wish I had gotten an
other: could have finished in less than
half the time it took me to finish the field.
Every one that has seen it is finely pleased
and several have said they intend to have
one, if not more. My crop is looking very
well, and grass with it. would not care a
straw about the grass if my cotton rows
were just regular enough for me to use my
TTnc Cultivator. Very truly. ‘
