gefeit ffaurfiur. Tired Mothers. A little elbow leans upon your knee, Yourutired knee, that has so much to bear; A child's dear eyes are looking lovingly . From underneath a thatch of tangled hair. Perhaps you do not heed the velvet touch Of warm, moist fingers, folding yours so tight ; You do not prize this blessing overmuch, You almost are too tired to pray to night. But it t's blessedness ! A year ago I did not see it as I do to-day We are so dull and thankless ; and too slow To catch the suushinetill it slips away. Aud now it seems surpassing strange to nie, That, while I wore the badge of moth 'erhood, I_did not kiss more oft, and tenderly, The little child that brought me only good. And if, some night when you sit down to rest, You miss this elbow from your tired knee ; This restless, curling head from off your breast, This lisping tongue that chatters con stantly ; If from your own the dimpled hands bad slipped, And ne'er would nestle in your palm again ; If the white feet into their grave had tripped, I could not blame you for your heart ache then ! I wonder so that motheis ever fret Atlittlechildren clinging to their gown; Or that the foot prints, when the days are wet, Are ever black enough to make them frown. If I could find a little muddy boot, Or cap, or jacket, on my chamber floor; If I :ould kiss a rosy, restless foot, And hear its patter in my home once more: TM could mend a broken cart to-day, To-morrow make a kito to reach the sky There is no woman in God's world could say_ She was more blissful content than I ! But ah ! trie dainty pillow next my own Is never rumpled by a shining head ; My singing birdiing from its nest is flown ; The little boy I used to kiss is dead ! -Mrs. A Wert Smith. NEGRO WORSHIP DOWN SOUTH, A,Day's Service in. Georgia-The Ne groes Religious Status. Savannah Cor. Boston Congregationalist r The people were gathering about ?the- Methodist church as we arrived. They rumbled along, whole families o? them in diminutive carts of their O'.vn manufacture drawn by a single animal, usually an ox, or what at the North would be called a small steer, with every bone sticking out and ev erv -hair standing on end. The meet ing houe was the rudest kind of a Structure, and so-small that half the seven hundred churche members _sJood outside, which was just as well fS?mg themarvelous elocutionary p*^svers of the minister. The service began before 12 and never slacked an Instant till 4. Every brother as he came in shook hands all round, and every sister made a courtesy. Many of" them were so black you could not pee them but for their flashy turbans and white aprons. They sang up roariously, keeping time with their feet, till the minister appeared, when the si nging grew louder still and wild er; ' and their bodies rocked more and more. He ga^e out a hymn. Everybody sang-it was enough to lift the Toof-the strangest melody and music. They have a harmony "all their own, very many parts, and no corresponding to our harmony and usually minor. They stood, and as the music swelled, their jpowerful bodies.swayed and rolled in a mass and the billowy roar was like unto the sea. It was magnificent. Sud. dealy .it ceased, and the entire fem inine, crowd dropped a courtesy. Then a prayer by ont of the deacons who wound them up to a shouting pitch? and^th?rihimster read another hymn : "God moves in a mischievous way," and another line, " Judge not the Lord by feeble sainls." Negro preaching is usually a fer tig description of heaven and hell, flb^f resurrection and judgment; of sin and salvation, too, in a general way, but with nothing practical, and a fe whither of preachers or hearers know what sin or salvation mean. This was the farewell sermon, and most harrowing, and as the preacher kindled and glowed the fire caught ard blazed like the pine knots they burn the sisters began to wail and scream, the brothers to shout ; tears and moans . an?Tgro?ns were on every hand ; they wruDg and clasped and clapped their hands, swung their bodies, leaped an4-danced, flinging out their arms . they whistled and yelled, crooned^ Cheered, chirruped, tattooed, and howled, and at short intervals came a sharp report, possibly at your very ear, like a loud pistol, till the whole was in the wildest tumult. But a close observer could see through all a certain order, a melody even ; it was a sert of natural symphony, and con soled by one hand and will, and at the will of the preacher, inferior as he looked in comparison with many of his hearers, the blast softened, the rumble ceased, and all was still as the grave. The minister who was consump tive, declared that he was al most dead, .but he prayed with undiminished force, and thus: " 0 Lord, we do be seech dee to sen' de locomotive of dy Holy Spirit clown into de camp of de Philistines an' convert all de sin ners." Next came the contribution, when, for~three quarters of an hour they s^og-and danced, while the people deposited their tickets-very slowlyf for they have little money and less g confidence in these that receive it fi At length the minister became impa- t tient and shouted : " We has got to o raise $5 mo,' an' I tell ye now, ye' won't get a mite o' sacrament till ye've raised it," and the tramp began? afresh. After receiving several into the church, we had communion, and 600 partook. All through the ser vice the music continued, often very beautiful. They sang Old Hundred and St. Martin's with decided varia tions of their own, and "Jesus, lover of my soul," to a minor tune of ex ceeding sweetness. As the women left the altar they dropped a courte sy, as they did after each exercise. A number were baptized and received on probation, and then the. babies were brought, dark blossoms in white vestments, with gay streamers. A name was asked. "Cuffy Austin," "Cuffy !" exclaimed .the minister with some anger. M What do you gib your chile such a name as that for? Cuffy ain't nonams't all ! Don't neber gib a chile no such nickname ; he'll be 'shamed on it as soon as he knows anything." Again he inquir. ed the name, and the woman was mad and flung out : "Cliffy Austin !" The pastor took the child in his anns sprinkled some water on its head, and said ; "I baptize thee, Cuffy Austin, io ignorance," and that is all the christening that baby had. A couple then appeared to be mar ried, but the minister said he was too tired to marry them that day, and they would have to wait till he came next time. Ile was then so exhaust ed that we began to fear we should have a dead man to carry home. He was not quite through, however. The principal steward of the church, a fine-looking, full-blooded negro, who sat behind the altar and was partic ularly active, was called to account for appropriating church funds, and dismissed from his office. He did not take it at all to heart, and the whole assembly looked upon it as quite a regular proceeding. New Zealand Cherries. Yesterday a fruit dealer on Mark et 6treet, incensed ht the liberties taken by the loafers with his wares displayed at the door, placed a half gallon of Cayenne peppers in a bask et, labelled it " New Zealand Cherries," and hung it in a con spicuous place in front of his stand. In a few minutes the next-door mer chant sauntered up, inquired hov/ trade was, picked up a New Zealand cherry, placed it in his mouth, and suddenly left to attend a customer. The Rev. Er. Bolly next rounded to, observed that the yellow fever news from Memphis was not very encour aging this morning, and-ah ! it had been years since he had eaten a NTew Zealand cherry; whereupon he ate one, remarked that it was superb, wiped his- weeping eyes on his coat sleeve, suppled that New Zealand was getting warmer every "year, wisb> ed the dealer good morning, and de parted, lamenting the growing weak ness^of his eyes in the sunlight. A chronic deadbeat then came iii), took a mouthful of cherries, and sputtered them ont, with an imprecation -all over the fruit, st uffed a pear, a bana na and a bunch of grapes into his mouth to take out-the taste, J n for in - ed the dealer he would Jaave him prosecuted for keapiug green fruit, and went down the street to the fire plug. A lady with two children next appeared, stopped t^a^.rnire the cherries, asked if she mightn't just taste them-she never had seen any before-supplied the children and walked away-walked away with a face fiery with -corn and anger, while the children set up a howl that brought all the people to the doors and windows, and drove all the po licemen off the street. Thus the fun went- ou all the morning. The fruit dealer never laughed so much iu his life. The occupants of the adjacent and opposite shops, and a shoal of small boys, soon learned what was up, and watched and joined in a ring ing roar as each new victim tried th** cherries. Finally a solemn-looking countryman lounged up, inquired the price of them ere New Zealand cher ries, invested in a pint, put one in his mouth, took it out again, gave the fruit dealer a lingering look of mild reproach, pulled off his. coat and "waded into" him. When he ?lift, the fruitman with tendencies to prac tical jokes had a blue eye; rt red nose a purple face, a sprained wrist, and several bushels of fruit scattered around among the small boys, while the same ringing roar of laughter was going up from the lookerson.

The other day a young girl of our acquaintance, who is pursuing a se lected course of study in one of the collegiate institutions of the city, was examining the printed curriculum with reference to deciding what study Bhe should take up next term. While consulting about the matter, she read over fhe long list of text boolee oh science, language, literature and mathematics, when suddenly she ex claimed : "I'll tell you what I would like to study-I would like to study medicine. I don't mean that I wan't ;o be a physician and practice, but >nly to know what to do at home if mybody is sick or anything happens. [ am sure that it would be more use ul to me thau"-and she turned to ,he pres ribed course of study-"than ipherical trigonometry and naviga ion. What's the use of my studying ?avigation? But we can't run for the loctor every time anybody sue izss ir coughs, and I would like to know vhat to do for any one who is H little ick." Here ir, a matter concerning irhich young women need some simple .ut careful instruction. But who ives them any ? As daughters in the imily they can repeat the dates of he Grecian and Roman wars, work ut an intricate problem in algebra, st rc K ol in T fo Tl di D ye sd U in ha an fri frc in and give the technical names of all the bones?n the body; but if the baby brother left in their charge burns his hand or is seized with croup how many of them know "the best thing to do while waiting for the doctor? And when, as wives and mothers, the du ties of life increase, how many of them have any practical knowledge which will help them to meet calmly and in telligently the every day experiences of accidents and illness which are inevitable in every family ?-Har per's Bazaar. Oui). "She is nobody! Only a post-trad .er's wife," said the pretty Mrs. Belk nap, with a toss cf the head. It was only a sentence, but it hurled the speaker and those dear to her from a position long held and highly prized, and brought to light transactions that made Americans for a time almost lose faith in public men. Only one Marshal failed to obey commands at Waterloo on that mem orable ISth of June, but it broke the proud heart of Napoleon, caused de feat to be written on the French ban ner, which hereiofore had only vic tory inscribed thereon, and brought untold glory to Wellington, and joy to the allied English and German troops. Of this defeat Thiers wrote : "As for this battle, no one can deny that the plan and execution were all that could be expected of a commander." It was only Grouchy who was to blame, and he was only a little too late, but Napoleon died in exile be cause of it. Only a child left within a burning house. Who would enter at the risk of life and save him? He was saved, and after year3 proved that it was a life worth saving to the church and the world. It was the immortal Wesley. Only one risk more. "Stock smnst go up; all will be retrieved.. Hun dreds of mortgaged homes and pen niless widows in California to-day can tell the rest. Only a fallen girl. Years ago she was pure and happy. It was only oue false step at first, but years of mis.u-y have followed. May God show mercy to the fallen one. Only ' one glass more. The thirst cannot be quenched. Djwn> down the victim goes, saying: "'Only one glass more." Hundreds of ruin ed families uni broken-hearted moth ers the world over can teil the rest of I hat sad story. Chemists tell ns that only one grain of iodine "imparts color to seven thou sand times its weight in water. So in our livea -things that seem only trjfling at the t,ime--a mis-^pent Sab bath, a brok n promise, a careless word even, oftentimes gives color to events of infinite importance.. God grant us grace, lo...cpjapreheiid the vastness of that brief word only, ere it be too late. " ?i.,:: v. rn.. Piggy Forty Years Ago. [Lc tr I'M Co., A'//,, Letter /o Hiat/srillc Rep.] Ten thousand hogs a season have been knovvn to be driven through and out of Lewis county. In ?rogqt? th.9 bogs were engaged and in September herded. No cash was paid, but time [riven until the return of thc drover in December or January. At this lay co ask a mm to driven lot of hogs from her J to Riehmand, Ya., would be. viewed as one of the im possibilities. With the present stock and breeds it would be. Hogs forty years ago had boue and muscle tvere bred for travel-while the hogs of the present day are small boned, .lestitute of endurance. Hogs of far ly years ago were free of disease, and the llesh in layers of lean and fat ; to-day's breed is solid fat. The State road led up the banks of thc Ohio to Gnyandotte; from thence across to charleston, up the Kanawha, over tho Alleghenies, down the Blue Ridge into the valleys of Virginia. Ten niles a day was a great drive. One ?undre'd hogs were assigned to each Iriver. Every hog knew his drove md driver Ninety days . was the ;ime required io complete the jour ley. The hog drivers were a jolly et. The experience and experiment aught them patience and endurance, Cjie .boss rode in ad v*nee of his drove, 0 buy corn and provide for each light's lodging. Two meals a day vas the allowance. The lame or traggling bogs were left on the road, nd would come up in the night and oin the original drove, r.-ady for Qorning feed and an early start. ?He,$ric: "paid'in tliosC days was rom seventy-five cents to $1.50 per 00 pounds. The prices realized fould be from $1 to ?3 per 100 lotinds, 'owing to thc time given. The rivers would foot it back home. On heir arrival the doors of all the eighborhood would open to receive hem, and enjoy the detailed ind ents of the long journey. The boss Tou'd return some weeks afterwards nd then was the grand pay-day. 'hose that had claims would congre ate at Clarksburg, get their pay, Jttle store bills and make engage tents for the coming hog season.
