ON THE EVE OF THE WEDDING.
* I a
O, Iotc, before wo pari to night, I
Before the last "1 will" is spoken? .
Before the riug has touched my hand,
Of pure, true, endless love the token?? 8
Before the church with holy rite V
Her blessing on our lovo has given,
l.ook straight iuto my eyes with yours,
And answer tue in sight of tleaveu.
Is there within your heart of hearts
One lingering shadow of regret ?
One thought that you have chosen ill?
Oh 1 speak?'tis not too late even yet.
Is thirc in all this world of ours
One you have ever known or seen,
Whom, it you had earlier seen or known,
You would have crowucd your chosen ?iuecn?
Is there? I pray you tell me now,
An.I I ? 111 > - *
...... . uuiu you notion 110 more.
1 will not Uincli to hear the truth '
It couhl not he so sad, so sore, 1
To know it now, as it would bo <
If by and by a shadow fell (
Upon the sunshine of our home ; j
t?o, If you ever loved tne?tell.
I'd hold you pure from blame, dear love;
And 1 would leave you tree ns air 1
To woo and win that happier one :
All this for your dear sake I'd bear,
I will not say how I would pray
That God might have you in His care ; !
That would be easy?when I think I
Of you, my heart is all one prayer. i
But could I join her name with yours, I
And call down blessings f?*otn above
On her who had robbed me of my all?
My life?my light?my only love? *
Yes ! evon that I two would do ;
Although my lonely heart should break, f
I'd try to say, "God bloss her !" too,
Through blinding toars, for your sweet sake.
I'm looking up into your eyes ;
Hut, though uiy own with tears arc dim,
I read that iu their true, clear depths,
Which tells me, "You may trust in liitn "
I will?I will ! ? It needs no words,
Though yours are (lowing warm and fast,
And eloquent with truth and lore; '
Forgive my doubts? they arc the last !

A Ghastly Tram: of Baltimore.? ''
The Baltimore Sun publishes a long and *
itemized account of the grave rubbing in J*
that ciiy which seems to have assumed the .
dimensions of a regular and profitable buti- {'
ness, circulars being sent out to the differ- ?
cut medical colleges of the country offering
to supply "subjects" 011 reasonable terms.? a
Portions of tlie correspondence of t lie deal- 1
or arc glvcu, from which it appears that
l'rof. Win. l'orrin Nicholson, of the modical
college at Atlanta, (la., was a good cus- a
tomer. One individual contracted for the t(
shipment of the remains of one hundred ^
citizens of Baltimore during the season.?
The prices ranged from 85U for "good lean Cl
adults in good condition" to 825 for "goods" s<
which the purchasers complained were "in- ?
jured" or "in bad condition when received,
the injury being usually the result of warm
weather. Sometimes orders were sent by d
telegraph for models." One correspondent *
gives directions for the injection of chloral ^
to preserve the ghastly merchandise; anoth- ?
cr objected to the bad quality because be 11
says: "We pride ourselves on the excellent
material furnished." Men, women and j1
children, white and black, and high low, 11
seem to Let a been thus disposed of, the b
resurrectionist taking au affectionate inter- c
est in funeral notices and burials, and skil- 1
fully extracting the bodies from the graves '
on the night after their interment without 11
disturbing anything or leaving traces.? '
Many hundreds of Baltimore's dead believed
to be peacefully slumbering have been ^
long since shipped away by express, (that *
being the invariable method of shipment 11
except in very cold weather.) and carved up c
by medical studcuts in Cleveland, ') , Ann ?
Harbor, Midi, Boston. Mass., Atlanta au.l ''
other cities. The Sun gives a partial list of
the graves robbed, its information being J1
probably obtained from the resurrectionist

The planters of Southwest Georgia, it is d
reported, have met with another enemy to c
crops, in the way of field larks. They have rr
never before been so mischievous. They go
in great droves and pull up the young corn ii
by the roots as soon as it begins- to cento up si
and in this way nro doing an immense t(
amount of damage. ];i
llAUUOWlNO WllKAT IN Sl'RINU.?The
dvantagc of harrowing wheat lauds thor- i
uglily iu the Spriug, as soou as tho ground ]
lecouics dry enough to pro.ent the horses i
inking into it, is known to uiuuy tanners I
rho have practiced it, but is unknown to i
nc majority. \Y heat is usually sown iu i
'eptcuibcr upon well prepared land. This *
and is left there subject to all the storuis 1
if rain and snow and the dry weather iu I
he succeeding Spring until the wheat is '
larvested lu consequence the land bo- <
comes, in May uud June, nearly as hard as
i uieadow. At a season of the year when
the plants are in thegrcatest vigor of growth
the laud is so hard us not to givo otio half i
the nourishment it would if kept mellow by
uiy process. Suppose, for instance, coru i
should bo planted in the Kali, under similar i
conditions with wheat, and that the winter i
lid not injure it, and that it were left with- i
jut cultivation of nny sort until harvested; I
it is cvidcut that the yield would be diuiinshed
over one-half; iu fact the yield would i
probably be so light and poor as to be worthless.
j
Now, wheat, from uiy experiments iu its
cultivation by haud iu Knglaud, shows as <
^reat sensitiveness to cultivation as corn;
the yield by careful hand cultivation being
increased to sixty busbcls, and in some instances,
eighty bushels per acre. Now, a
thorough harrowing of wheat in Spring, in
1 very inexpensive manner, performs the
cultivation nearly as well ns wlicu done by
hand. If the crust formed by the Winter
snows and Spriug rains is thoroughly broken,
aud the ground to iho depth of two or
more inches well pulverized, tho effect upon
the wheat is like magic. It starts into the
most vigorous growth aud in a lew weeks
has nearly or quite doubled in size of the
wheat not harrowed. In pieces of wheat i
that have come under the writer's obsorva
nun, which were narrowed ill strips, time is
?one strip not harrowed at all, and other
strips 011 each side thoroughly harrowed,
in the early part of Juuc?the harrowed I
ivhcat stood fully one foot higher tl.au the <
inharrowed at each side, and in every way '
vas strikiugly ranker and more vigorous. :
Ur. It. J. Swan, of Rose Hill Farm, Gen- '
iva, N. Y., who has heavy clay land, says *
ic has harrowed his wheat for four years !
vitli the Thomas harrow, and finds the yield '
o be increased fully ten bushels per acre.
Ityruui Moulton, of Alexander, Genesso
Jouuty N. Y., harvested from fifty acres
1,000 bushels of wheat. llis neighiors
only obtained about ten bushels per
icrc. The oulv difference iu laud or treatnent
was that Moultnn's wheat was thor ughly
harrowed with this implement iu
he Spring and his neighbors' was not.
The effect produced by harrowing barley
nd oats, after they have obtained a growth
f lour or five inches, is equally marked,
have observed many iustanees where filly
weuty bushels per acre increase, iu cousc[ucnco
of thorough harrowing, was obaiued.
I
These facts and many others of similar '
haracter show oloarlv fhn rrrrtnf. nrrfW I

Baltimore not to be Blockaded.? s
V letter received here yesterday fiom a gen- ?
leman residing in Baltimore expresses the I
>pinion that the Virginia Midlaud cxteusiou
o Charlotte is still contemplated, notwithitaudiug
the recent lease of the Air Line '
)y the .Richmond and Danville Railroad i
Company. It is said the Baltimore tner- '
hunts have taken the matter so much to 1
icart that a public meeting has been called, 5
nd the opinion prevails that the business '
exigencies of the Monumental City ab.-o- 1
utely require the penetration of at least one 1
ailroad from there into the cotton bilt, and '
hat the business men there arc ready to put 1
heir shoulders to the wheel. The Virgi- 1
ia Midlaud is now regarded as a Baltimore '
oad, and as it butts up against the Rich* *
loud and Danville Railroad combination at {
)anvillc there is no friendly Southern cut- 1
it. Baltimore capital says it inu.*t and icifl *
avc one, and the project of a connecting 1
nk between Danville and (Minrlntt? must 1
0 built. ^
When it is remembered that Charlotte 1
Iready has a through connection with Char- '
:ston via the uew route over the Northeast- '
ru Railroad from Wadesboro, and the fur- 1
tier fact that a railroad between Charlotte j
nd Camden would open up Baltimore trade 1
1 the whole of the cotton trade East of c
few Orleans and Mobile, the completion of v
ic Virginia Midland to Charlotte will be- 8
omo apparent. These are the days of con- 8
Nidation and co operation, and being cut c
IT from a friendly Southern trade by the '
lichmond and Danville Railroad Company,
lie Baltimore and Ohio looks over in our
irection with little less solicitude than did c
loses when from 1'isgah's heights lie beheld s
lie fertile valleys of Canaan. Access hero s
an only be gained by driving the iron horse 1
ito Charlotte. ^
Mr. Uarrott, the President of tlio Bnlti
lorcanu vnio uuiirouu, 11 is understood, is *
ii Italy, whither lie has gone for his health, 1
ul even his abucuco will uot lon? dolnv the 1

A Dr.r.ude in Dakota.?St. Paul, 1
linn , March 31.?A special from His- 1
nurck says that the icoin the Missouri Riv- *
r broke there yesterday, and the lower part
f the city is overflowed, and a great sea of ,
co nud water extends for five uiiles. Three
lovcrninent warehouses on l ho landing were !
rrccked. The river rose ten feet in a few
ours, and is now thirty feet above low wn- *
cr mark. The wood choppers and settlers
a the low lands were all washed out, and
lany were probably drowned. Mandou,on
lie west side of the river, is under three *
jet of water. The greatest loss, aside from j.
lie loss of life, will be in cord wood, thousnds
of cords having been swept away.
A dispatch from ?ioux City says there t
re thirty feet of water in tho ohannel at f
r 1.1rrv.- i * -o a.

verflowed, the inhabitants having been j
riven to the hill. The flood is the largest
vcr Lnowu there, and tho damage is im-*
lenso. p
Tho City of Vermilliou, Dakota, is also r
mndatud, tho water being up to the scoond d
.ory windows. Tho ooonpants were taken
) the bluffs in boats and were probably
itided in places of safety. k
llow Officers Wkrk OWkt. Paid.?It
is recorded in history that^rom 1777 to
1784 that portion of (he country now known
?s Tcuucpscc formed a part of North Carolina,
and that in 1785 (lie popple of Tonlessee
became dissatisfied with their governaicnl.
and organized a Statu government utiler
the nauin of "Franklyn," which was
maintained for somo years. The organization
afterwards disbanded and.. Territorial
feniicsseo was agaiu annexed MhJtSgth Carolina.
The following is amowpjBMi laws
passed by the legislators <jf tn&ffiuto of
"Franklyn."
In Daniel Webster's speech ou the currency
in 1838 is this extract :
"Be it enacted by the General Assembly
of the Stato of Franklyn, nnd it is hereby
enacted by the authority of the same : That
from the first day of January, 1770, the salaries
of the officers of this commonwealth
be as follows, to-wit:
' His Excellency, tho Governor, 1,000
deer skius.
"Ilis lienor, the Chief Justice, 500 deer
skins or 500 raccoon skins.
"Members of Assembly, per diem, 3 rac^
coon skins.
"Each County Clerk, 300 beaver skins.
"Justicc's lee for signing a warrant, ono
inuskrat skin.
"To the Constable for serving a warrant,
1 mink skin.
"Entered into a law tho 18th day of October,
1770."
It will be sen from this extract that somo
of the allowances were <gft^"i^ll. but ill
the same pay were nllovwff"con^iltN now
in this section, wo wouid be fouud . Jnong
the office seekers, and if wo sbonld bo elected,
just as soon as we got our uiitik skin
we would strike a bee line for a fur house
and turn it into money. Nothing like uion
oy, niter all.
A Difference in Disposition.?I
know two girls, equally excellent ami pretty,
between whom a marked differouco exists;
Dne gains friends wherever she goes, and at
jncej the o'her makes few, and then only
ifter a long accquaintnncc. WWp* She
looks at people with an eyo of suspicion ;
she doesn't wish to be taken in ; her glance
it the person to whom she is presented says,
Now you arc very likely uot what you pre[eud
to be, and you shall not find me a vie:iui
at any rate." She approaches strangers
with clenched Gsts, as it were, and the inevitable
consequence is that they receive her
in the same spirit. Nobody 1 iMrrrr
his faults suspected before ho has had a
diance to show his virtues. Her gentler
friend, instinctively understanding this, reicives
every new acquaintance as if she had
been waiting all her life for him especially.
She sees the good in people and gives them
he credit for it. The result is, that in her
presence ail our good qualities come nut, and
>ve arc better for the time being, if not for
ilways. Thus it is that she has so many
friends, for while men and women laugh at
icr friend's witty sayings and applaud her
teen criticisms, they do 1101 care one tenth
is much for her as they do for their amiublc
avoritc, who believes there is souio good iu
jvcrybody. But our young cynic does not
tee this. She goes on believing that it is
ho fault of the world that she is not appreciated.
I fear, if she lives to see threescore
years and ten, she will never get the
sweetness and beauty out of life wlii^fc her
friend has already ibuud.
Ten Cents a Day.?No matter how
large your salary, you will save nothing if
you spend money too freely. Men are con
.inually indulging iu small expanses, saying
10 themselves, that it's only a trifle, you forjetting
that the aggregate is serious, that
*vcn the seashore is made up oi' pretty
jrains of sand. Ten cents a day is even
hirty six dollars and a half a year, and that
s the inter.st of a capital ol six hundred
lollars. The man that saves ten ecuts a day
>uly is so much ricTicr than he who1- does
lot, as if he owned a life estate in a house
vorth six hundred dollars ; and if invested
pjarterlv, does not tnko half that time.?
Hut ten cents a day is child's play, some
vill exclaim. Well, John Jacob Astor used
o say, that when a uiau, who wishes to be
ich, has saved ten thousand dollars, he-has
von half the battle. No$. ^st?-r
bought ten thousand much, but he kuew
hat in making such a sum, a mail acquired
labits of prudent economy, which would
tcep him advancing in wealth. How many,
lowcvcr, spend ten thousand in a few years
n extra expenses, and then, on looking baek,
lannot tell, as they say, "where the money
rent to." So to save is to get rich. To
qunndcr, even in small sums, is the.first
tep toward the poorhouse. The habit of
xtravngauce is easily ^formed, but almost
nipossiblc to break up.

A Hill Aoainst "Teeatiso."?Con- ?
siderable auiuscuieut was created on yesterday
morning among the people who keep
track of the legislative proceedings, by tho
introduction into the Illinois House of 11 p- j
rcsoututives of a bill by Mr. Goodrich, making
"treuting" u misdemeanor puuishablo
by fine. The bill is modelled after the Nebraska
law, which will go into effect eoou, j
and it has a local option clause attached.?
It not only uiakes treating uulawful, but tho
man who is treated is in equal danger of
Siuuishuicnt, for it puts the person buying
liquor for another und tho person accept* i
ing on tho same fooling. The first section i
of the seutcnce suits all classes of eash pa- I
trons of saloons, but tho letter provisiou |
would work a positive hardship to a largo
class of industrious citizens who put in the
greater part of their tiuio waiting for some
^onc to invite theui to "take suthin." The
bill, in the highly improbable contingency
of its passage through the Legislature,
would break many of these people up in (
business and would drive them to hard
work, or cold water, an intolerable thought
to most of them.? Chicago Times.
The Union Times may be couutcd on iu
support of that bill. It is a long practical
stop in the direction of Temperance. So
we think.
