LOOKING BACK.
A barefooted child, by the meadow stile,
Sits down her basket to rest awhile,
And turning, swings herhat, with asmile;
To a classmate, taking another away
O'er sunny fields, with spring flowers gay,
And looking back.
With bright face saddened a young girl
leans
One glimpse lo catch of fast-fading scenes;
Learning the sorrow that parting means,
As, borne along by the hurrying train,
Living ber school-days o'er again,
She's looking back.
A ti
Wpet
A fairer picture there cannot be
ian yon vessel, sailing, proud and free,
to the billowy, open sea ;
et a fair young bride with wistful eyes
rom deck, to where the blue shore lies,
Keeps looking back.
A widow stands by a lonely grave
O'er which the sheltering grasses wave,
Marked by a stone with no record, save
The mossy traceries of changing years ;
And to the far bright past with tears
Is looking back.
Whitely and silently falls the snow
On the meadows still, and cold wind.- blow
Ojej^4?e-d>r?'ahig"?elds, as, sighing low,
"An aged woman, for the last time, seems
A child again ; in happy dreams
Still looking back.
Thus all through the world, where'er we
turn,
There are aching hearts, and souls that
yearn
Over by-gone hours ; and thoughts still
burn
Within us, that we uttered years ago,
As in the midnight watches slow
We're looking back.
Bat angels, kneeling before the throne
The "loved ones found ; the long race run
Are thrilled with joy by this thought
alone :
Their eyes "the King in His glory" see.
Yes, in His presence there can be
No looking back.
MRS. SPRAGH?K.
What Donn Piait Knows of (bat
Interesting Creature.
Poor Mrs. Sprague bas to suffer
not only from Conkling'3 unpopular
ly, but from her husbaud's drunken
insanity. We know, in knowing hei,
that she is as innocent of the wrong
imputed as her youngest child. To
appreciate this we have to know or
remember that, inheriting much of
her honored father's intellect and
force of character, she grew to wo
manhood without a mother's care,
and with the training given a man.
The result is, that while as pure a
woman as God ever creal el, she looks
at the eocial world from a man's
standpoint. When a mere girl of IC
her soul revolted at the unjust and
illiberal discrimination made against
her sex. She found Dick Nevins,
the handsome, dashing man of the
world, in a small, flat State capital,
jcK^-o il-, - only- amusements are visits
H> the penitentiary and asylums for
HPthe insane, deaf and blind. She
Hf found Dick, we say, a pleasant gen
REf tleman to know intimately, and when
W the 8mall-souled, copper-bottomed,
W gilt edged aristocracy of the place
? forbid the intimaty, Kite defied the
r prohibition. She was incontinently
run over by a drove of social bulls
and heifers, and would have been
plastered in the mud, past finding,
but for her own pluck and her fath
er's high position.
Victory made her bold, defiant
and imprudent, and the poor little
woman tries the same fight, now that
her great father is dead, her fortune
gone, her social position no longer
secure and her spirit broken by mis
fortune. She found the society of
Senator Conkling pleasant, and she
a iked no man's, and eke, no woman's
c msent to the same. It was the
most open and defiant social transac
tion ever sneered at by the thin lips
and false teeth of this hydra headed
i_social world. Bald-headed, round
bellied, slender-legged Senators, who
can be carded oat by strumpets, nod
ded and blinked at each other like
owls in a hayloft, and old, aristocrat
ic families-twenty years old, at least,
in whose closets at home grinning
skeletons make the air unhealthy
spoke of her as " that person."
Roscoe Conkling, who, with all his
intellect and intelligence, is, through
bis excessive vanity, au ass, helped
wreck the frai4 bark of her Platonic
affection. He delighted in the foul
suspicion. He bad captured and
held a willing captive one of the high
queens of society. He reveled in
the notoriety. He lost no opportuni
ty to make it the more notorious.
He smacked his beastly lips.;over? not
the gratification of desires; long since
barned ont, bat over the notoriety of
a supposed gratification that fed his
inordinate vanity.
We envy no man'spillow whocould
read with eyes unraoistened the piti
ful account of this once brilliant wo
man, this loved and lovable creature,
following meekly yet bravely her
children, torn from her by a brute of
a husband, to the home two unworthy
men bad rendered desolate.- Waah-*

A REMINISCENCE OF NIAGARA.
A Man's Terrible Experience in the
Rapids, CliB?tag to a Rock.
I remember when I was but a boy
that a man got into the rapids here,
having been carried down in a boar,
which was broken to pieces. He had
the good fortune to be dashed on a
rock, to which he clung. It was at
the height of the season-August, if
I recollect-and he clung there for
fully thirty-six hours. Everybody
streamed out of the hotels and the
village ; the banks of the river, par
ticularly on this side, were thronged
with people anxious to do something
to save him. Dozens of plans were
suggested ; some attempted, but they
all failed. Thousands of dollars wen
offered to anybody who would rescue
him. The desperate situation of the
man had been telegraphed over the
country and every train brought
crowds of passengers luther to wit
ness it with their own eyes. Ile was
encouraged by shouts from the banks,
but whether he could understand
anything said is doubtful. The world
is said to be sympathetic. It is, or it
appears to be unsympathetic, because
the object for which sympathy is
asked is abstract. When it is tangi
ble, visible, all is changed. There
was an exemplification. This poor
wretch could be seen. He was an
ordinary, uneducated man; but he
was a man, and the brotherhood and
sisterhood of the race went out to
him in pity and intense eagerness to
rescue him. Women of fashion,
blase club men,selfish w< ridings grew
paleas they watched the unhippy
wretch, so vivid was their sympathy.
Many persons sat up all night look
ing across the seething, roaring wa
tere at the small dark figure still
clinging to the rock. The morning
came ; renewed efforts were made>
but they all miscarried. The crowd
had increased; it was immense.
Everybody was excited. Tears were
in the women's eyes, the pallor gleam
ed through the rouge of some of their
cheeks. Can't something be done?
Must the poor fellow perish before
our faces ? Is there no way to res
cue him? Such questions weie in
cessantly asked, but, alas, no reply
could be given. The man had good
courage and great strenglh. He
clung to the rock with the despera
tion ol a dying soul. To lose his hold
was to be dashed over the cattaract.
Apparatus and contrivances arrived
from Buffalo. New experiments and
new failures. Hoarse shouts still
rang across the rapids to hold on
to be of good heart. The stoutest
heart that ever throbbed could not.
grip that rock forever. It was won
derful how he had endured. A fresh
idea had come to the minds o! half a
dozen mechanics. They were labor
ing to throw ont a hawt-.er; every
muscle was strained ; eveiy eye was
bent upon their work. Sudd lily the
[nan slipped*?way. He was exhaust
ed ; threw up his arms ; he dashed
toward the cataract. A low groan,
as from one breast, quaked through
the throng; the thousands shivered
with terror. A black object for a
moment longer iu the Lell of the wa
ters, and then disappeared fe ever,
rhere was an agony of relief. No
me moved; no one spoke fora while
\11 looked in the direction where the
igure had been swallowed np. It
vas the enchantment of terror; it
vas the chill of tragedy distinctly
wrought which froze every one for
-he moment to the spot. The old
resident-he has lived here forty
pears-says that on an average about
lix persons are carried over the falls
?very year, and that four out of the
lix are wholly or partly intoxicated
iud lose their lives by carelessness or
'ecklessDes8 in rowing above the
apids, going beyond the line of dan
cer. But for liquor not moi ethan
wo lives, he says, would be lost an
mally.-11. Louis O lobe Democrat.
THE STOCK LAW.
Mr. Allen Jones, of the firm of Ivy
? Jones, of R.ck Hill, S. C., called
n us last week. We asked him as
0 the practical operations of the
itock Law in his. township. Ile said
hat two years ago they carried the law
>y a vote of 19 majority. The con
ention was very sharp and the worda
irere very bitter. That was the feei
ng at the time of the election. Now
here would not be 19 votes against
t after a trial of two years. Eveu
he people living in town prefer the
?w as it is, although they have to
:eep their stock up all the time. They
nd it cheaper in the long run. No
omplaint was made during the a
1er as to want of pastures. Cattle"1
)ok wei!, miik and butter are ab?m
ant, and there is no lying ont of the
ows.
The Press and Banner has this to
iy on the subject :
There is a good deal of foolish
raddle indulged by opponents of the
tock Law in other counties in refer
ace to "poor widows' cows." The
tock Law in Abbeville County is
lore beneficial to the "poor widow"
ian to any other class. As a rule
ley have been unable to keep up good
mees, and the result has been, their
eighbors cattle destroyed their crops
very year. The opponents of, the
tock Law give the best reason^for
lopting it in sneaking of the " wid
ivs cows." The Stock Law is based
j equity. No man should be allow
1 to go into the stock business with
it having land upon which to past
re them. Reduced down to a fine
)int, it would be that the opposition
i the Stock Law consiste in a desire
i pasture your cattle on another
. .Sill-even if it should be
rn, wheat or .oats.

" WHAT GIN MK A START."
Gea. Forrest's Account of a Desperate
Game of Poker.
Several years ago General Forrest
visited the city and stopped at the
old City Hotel. That night several
gentlemen called to see him, among
them a gentleman now connected
with the Banna'. The room had
been crowded during the early part
of the night, and Forrest had receiv
ed the usual attention bestowed on
him. Now, however, he was sitting
off to himself, and appeared worn
and tired ont. Our informant, wish
ing io have a talk with him about
himself, sought him and entered into
conversation with him.
- *' General," says he, " I've heard
you were a great poker player in your
time ?"
" Yes," says the General, "I have
played some," and his eyes began to
sparkle with the memory of old times,
and he at once seemed interested in
the subject, for be it known that no
one was fonder'than he in recounting
his wonderful exploits.
" How much, General, was the
largest stake yon ever played ?"
"I once called $48,000 in New
Orleans."
" Did yon win ?"
" Oh, yes! I won it."
"What was your hand, General?"
" It was three kings."
" But," says he, " the hardest game
I ever played was at Memphis. Just
after the war closed, me and my wife
went to Memphis, and we stopped at
the Worsham House. The next
morning wc got our things together,
and I emptied all my papers out of
my trunk on the door, and Mary
(I'm not certain his wife's name was
Mary, but that will do for the tale)
went over and over them, hunting
for something to raise raouey ont of.
I emptied my pockets, and Marv
emptied her'n, and between us we
had seven dollars and thirty cents.
After nuntin' over everything, we
found that every man who owed me
wis either dead or broke. I hadn't
one single paper on which I could
raise a cent outen. After we got
through the pile, I looked at Mary
and Mary looked at me. 'Now what's
to be done, Mary ?' says I. 'I don't
know,' says she, 'but the Lord will
provide.' You soe, Mary was one of
the best women in the world, and she
had a heap of faith in her religion.
I looked at her right straight a long
Limo, and at last says I, " Mary, you
ire a mighty good woman, and I'm
^oiug to tell you something. There's
to be a big dinner at-this even
ing, and I'm invited. They always
[?lay poker al that house, and you
Ixave always been agin me playing,
iud I reckon you are right about it.
But things have become desperate
within, and somehow I feel il you
wouldn't be agin me, but would pray
?br mc, I could make a raise to
night.'
"Says she: 'Bedford, I can't, do
it. Ita wrong for yon to do it,
ind i'd heap rather you wouldn't.'
" 'But, Mary,' says I, 'I never was
in such a fix before. Here we are
willi no money but. seven dollars and
thirty cents, and that won't pay our
tavern bil!. I can't lose no more
than (hat, for I'll swoar I won't bet
on a credit. If I lose that, I'll come
koine : ami if I win, then we'll have
something to shu t on.' Well, I ar
gued and argued with her, but she
wouldn't nay yt-a. But at last she
jays :
"'Bedford, I know your mind is
set on it, and I know you are going
:o bet, whether I'm wiitin' or not;
io I won't say Lothing more about
t.'
"But, somehow, I felt when I start
$d that she was for me, and I j ist
cnowed ho<v 'twould be.
" Well, I went some time before
linner, and, sure enough, they were
it it. They had three ;ablee-one
lad a quarter ante, one a hall and
me a dollar and a half. I wanted
ny seven dollars to last as lon?-; as I
ould make it, and so I set down to
he quarter table. We bet on until
[inner, and ny that time I had won
nough to do better ; and, after we
tad eat, I sat down to the dollar and
half table. Sometimes I won, and
hen again I'd lose on until nigh
bout midnight, and then I had bet
er luck. I know'd Mary was Bet
ing up and praying; I felt like it
nd it made me cool. I set my hat
own by my side on the floor, and e.
ry irae I'd win I'd drop the money
n thc hat. We played on and I
- . i i ' 11 ?
idn't know nothing about how much
'd won. 1 didn't keep anv count
now'd I was winning. I thought
lay be I'd won a hundred dollars
r may be two hundred, but I didn't
now. I sat there until day broke
nd then we went home. I took my
atop in both hands and mashed it
n my head and went home so with
nt taking it off. When I got to my
oom there sat Mary in her gown,
nd the heil wasn't mashed. She'd
.t up all ni|?ht. waiting lor me. She
seined tired ami anxious, and though
je looked mighty hard at me, she
idn't say a word. I walked right
p to her, and pul!'rig off my hat
.iib both hands I emptied it all right
i the lap of her gown. And then
e sat down and counted it."
" How mindi was lhere, Gen'l ?"
"Just fifteen hundred dollars
/eu.
"And that" added the General,
i he walked off, " gin me a start."

A QUAKER PRINTER'S PROVERBS
Never send an article for publica
tion without giving the editor thy
name, for thy name oftentimes secures
publication to worthless articles.
Thou shouldst not rap at the door
of a printing office, for he that an
swereth the rap sneereth in his sleeve
and loseth time.
Never do thou loaf about, nor
knock down type, or the boys will
love thee as they do the shade trees
-when thou leavest.
Thou shouldst never read the copy
on the printers' cases or the sharp
and hooked container thereof, or h?
may knock thee down.
Never inquire of the editor foi
news, for behold it is his business to
give it to thee at the appointed titetej
without asking for it.
It is not right that thou shouldst
ask him who is the author of ?in arti
cle, for it is his duty to keep such
things unto himself.
When thou dost enter his office,
take heed unto thyself that thou dost
not look at what concerns thee not,
for that is not meet in the sight of
good breeding.
Neither examine thou the proof,
sheet for it is not ready to meet thine
eye that, thou mayst understand.
Thou shouldst not delude thyself
with the thought that thou saved a
few cents when thou has eeenred a
dead-head copy of thi*j paper, for
while the printer may smile and Fay
it's all right, he'll never forget thy
meanness.

MR. TILDEN ON THE ISSUE IN 1880.
-In a recent interview with a cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Enquir
er on the political situation, Mr. Til
den is reported as having expressed
himself as follows : "The differences
in the Democratic party in the Unit
ed States are transitory and evanes
cent, and will disappear in the pr^
euee of inevitable events. The prin
ciples upon which the great mass o
the Democratic party are agreed on
are fundamental and eternal. In the
contest of I87C the issue was the re
storation of the Government, its
practical working and administra
tion, to the original idea? of its found
ers. The defeat of the popular
will, as declared in that election, has
raised a vastly greater issue-that if,
the integrity of the system of self
government through elections by the
people. This issue transcends ail
otherd, and it would be a betrayal of
the most sacred duty to mankind to
permit it to be sacrificed to inferior
and tiansient questions."
