tore t lie hopper of the Outrage Mill in
Washington yesterday, and, with the
assistance of John Sherman, testified
with great ability. She dcclaied that
yvhen she heard that a colored - man

immediately proceede to ostracise him,
-She was certain he had sold him*

band were to vote the Democratic
ticket she would “pack tip her chute
nud go to her (alder.” Aad i she
didn’t possess that sort ol residuary
relative, she would woik for twenty

otvnself.” It was her intel'.’gent the
ory that I 'if a colored man voted the
Democratic t : cket he would have no
pnviligea, and il he toted the other
lie would lnve some. At this point
in her testimony she rematked in mel
ancholy parenthesis, “Dey hain't

acumen. It; will he vc.y strange in

Thb Republican machine in Geor

AFTER MARRIAGE.
There is danger of interpreting too
literally the old, worn-out quotation:
* J wo K.mu wit.i out a s nut - thought—
Tw lio.irts hit l) nt h ono.**
The two souls that 1m I but a single
thought would be very narrow souls,
indeed, and the chan es are that tliev
would speedily get tired of that/single
thought A honevnioon may. fitly he a
moon for two onlv; and I like the En
glish fashion of going oil’ to pass it in
some quiet spot hotter than tlic Ameri
can one of “Their Wedding Journey. ’’
when tho trunks and their contents are
alike new. and every detail speaks of
tin* recent ceremony. Hut even a wed
dim? journey may lie a season of sweet
arid sneretrisolation—and there is, per
haps. something in the very restraint
that travel imposes upon tenderness
which makes the end of each da’s
journey a special delight— : givcs it some
thing of the zest of meeting after part
ing.
Out of a lifetime, it is not too much
to take this one bright.; brief mouth lor
solitude « (leu-, the woritl forgetting,
by the world forgot. Hut after ties
moon of enchantment is over, and real
life must begin, it is important to begin
it with true theories instead of false
ones.
It is true, no doubt, that two peoplo
who are not only married out muled,
cjjn suilice for each othftr. They are
not -likely to weary of each others’ soci
ety. Their interests are one. their
hopes, their desires. They could go to
the end ot the world, if need were, to
India, to Australia, to the North l’ole.
if they could find their way th ro, and.
having each other, be everywhere eon
tent. They count live for years as two
very strong and real people, whom I
happen to know, did live, in the midst
of an absolutely alien and hostile com
munity, and suilice to each other. But
because they could do this, it does not.
tollow that it is tho best life.
(ino lil.es sometimes to read other
poets than Shukspcare, though one
would prefer him to any of Ins lesser
brethren, as the companion of T-oars of
Captivity. It is a better and a healthier
thing for two human creatures, even
the most loving and the most beloved,
to live to some degree nm >ng other
people—to interest themselves in uthe
lives; and thus i-ring some variety inf*
their own. A widowe 1 mother said t
me tho other day, in speaking of >
who
in a dozen \ears: “Wtf are so si.ent
together, that 1 half think we shall lo>e
the power of speech. IV’e an* in per
.'lock sympathy, hut our life has np.n vv
events, and we have talked tho old
ones over so m>tn y titue*. We know
each o'her-s faith, hopes, belie.is. ex
periences. as we know our own. so what
is there to talk about?”
1 can conceive that this same state of
things might come to pass in a v r.
happy and united marriage if Ihiatnar
ried pair lived chietly in solitude.
Worse things than ties might, (A course,
befall them. To )o-o their perfect un
derstanding of each other would be tar
worse—but it would ho a healthier life
to be more associa ed with their fellows.
To be too isolated is apt to induce that
too easy familiarity which breeds, if hoi
contempt, disenchantment.
And yet them is anotlier danger not
to be ignored in too int mate associa
tion with oliers. Jealousy, which
some body has called “the fond injustice
of jin unsatisfied heart,” is a very real
thing; and scarcely any gain count bo a
