THE LAND WHERE OUR 9REAMS .COME
TRUE
I
BY EMMA ALICE BKOWXB.
Far over some inist-hi<l<lcn river,
And under a wonderful sky.
Where the rain never blols out the sunshine, #
And our loves never weary or die ;
Where the flowers never fade?but in changing
Their magical sweetness renew.
Lies a glorified realm of enchantment,
The land where our dreams come true !
By mystical symbols and tuk.-ns.
We know of that beautiful land ,
But, alas! on the threshold of manhood,
The frail clue slip! out of our hand I
And the wild river wanders between us,
The white gates are hidden from view,
And only in sleep we remember
The land where our dreams come true !
We shall find the lost treasures we seek for, I
Revealed, in that wonderful sphere;
All 'lie niins and the dreams of the bygoue, '
All the good that eluded us here <
The innocent faiths ot our childhood, (
The one flawless friendship we knew,
Arrayed in our vanished illusions, C
In the land where our dreams come true !
We know, in divincst fulfillment,
Our vain hopes arc gathered at home,
The jewels wc mourn here are hoarded '
Where the moth and the rust cannot come ; <
And oft when the sunset is fairest.
We catch, through a rift in the blue,
A far away glimpse of the glories )
Of the land where our dreaius come true !
There arc garnered the prayers of our mothers, |
And the soft cradle song that they sung ;
There they move in the midst, with white garments,
(
And faces immortally young !
And out o: the mists of the river 1
Their sweet hands that shall reach us the t
clue ;
That leads through the Valley of Shadow
To the land where our dreams come true ! 1
So, weeping, we lay down our idols,
And bury our loves out of sight,
Though we know, in our hearts, we shall find (
them.
By and by, in the Mansions of Light ;
And the salt tears that fall on their ashes,
And blossom in pansy and rue,
Over there shall be lilies immortal,
In the Land Where Our Dreams Come True !
Waiting for Advice?There was a
young uian at the Central Market Wcdresday
who looked the perfect specimen of a
ereenhfirn. His hands wnra larrro an.l mil
O """" O " ,vx-?
his clothes didn't fit, and his cowhide boots
had just been rubbed down with fried
meat gravy, lie was looking at everything
with open mouth, when a couple of young
men who had been driven iu by the rain
commenced to guy him. One of them asked
him if he was on a bridal tour, and the oth>
er insisted on calling him Shakespearo.?
Liberal offers were made for his coat and
boots, and an attempt was made to secure
him for a lecturing tour through the country.
j The young man took everything in a
calm, uiattcrof fact way until a gentleman
came along and said to him :
"See here, my friend, why do you stand
these iusults ?"
"Arc they insulting me ?"
"Of course they arc."
"And should I resent it ?"
"Certainly you should."
"Then I will. I didn't know exactly
what to do, but thought I'd hold ou for advice.
If you say go in and slam 'oin I'll do
so."
"I would."
' Then I will ?"
In tho coolest kind of a way he removed
his coat, rolled it up and laid it down,
placed his hat on the buudlc, aud without
a word of warning he waded in and knock,
cd one off the cud of the beuch, and the
other clear over it, aud then gave each a
lift with his cowhide. lie won a complete
victory inside of two minutes without receiving
a scratch, and as he put on his coat
he said to his adviser :
"Much obliged for your kindness, stranger.
If that's the way jou do here iu

Sleeping avitii Serpents.?Professor
Dell, the Suiithoninn Institution's agent,
shipped his last collection of snakes to the
North two weeks ago, and already has his
museum full agaiu. It is surprising how
rapidly they become domesticated under
his treatment. During the recent cold 1
snap some of them that he turns loose in
his room at night climbed up the bed posts
and coiled themselves up in his blankets,
lie felt them hunting for cozy spots about
his legs, and knew that he ought to get up
and provide them with some loose straw,
but a sleepy man in a warm bed of a cold
night is not over-obliging,and the professor
snored on musically, as is his custom. The
reptiles crowded unon-pon another ftiwrr >1.
ctf, fought a little, hissed; but the professor
did not budge; only now and then he
would wake slightly and and cry Softly,
"Whist, boys! bo easy, boys!"
At last a big coachwhip snake fouud an
opening near the edge of the blankets and
slowly glided in. There was a gentle waving
up and down of the bed clothes as the
big clay bank serpent moved about getting
himself comfortable, when suddenly ho
lapped about two thirds of his frigid length
against the warm legs ol the dozing pro
lessor. The professor made a violent remark.
lie sat up iu the bed, gathered a
handful of snakes iu each hand, depositing
them carefully on the floor; 'hen throwing
hack the bedclothes he administered a kick
that sent tlie coachwhip flying through the
dark to the further end ol the room, eucountcring
the lamp in its aerial flight and
knocking from its bracket on the wall the
fragile skull of an aucicnt Florida mound
builder.
"Freeze and be hanged !" exclaimed the 1
irate professor. "I'll share my bed with '
you; but you shan't drive u.o out." lie i
drew the blankets over him. A few mo<? i
uicuts later several pairs of little red eyes
moved up tho bod posts oft either side and
soon snake herder and snakes, in one couch, !
wero lost in peaceful sleep.--Jacksonville

THE DARKT AT HOME. j
Tlic darky in his Southern horui is an a
ateresting study. I sit ou the broad "galcry"
of an old Southern farm-house and
ratch the negroes who arc constantly pa?siug c
ho goto. Eirly i:i the morning they coujo ,
ogging along, sonic on half starved mule* n
ouie ou g?od looking horses, some in road 0
vagons and souie in Jersey carts. Oeov J
ionally some ebony damsel will be seen c
torched' behind her brother or lovcrj or sev- n
iral of them will be seated in the crowded t
vagon. One colored brother has a biskot r

'going do wo town oo business," they tell me, y
>ut none of it is sufficiently urgent to causo \
.hem to pass the gable porch, where they j
??t a drink of "pine-top whiskey" for a v
loick" and then emerge, ready for a gamo j
)f marbles. .
uncle iiairson's pullet.
Here comes one now, with a chicken in t
lis haud. lie is a man of about fifty years
)fagc, with alow forehead, flat nose and t
jlue guuis; his grizzled wool is arranged in t
ittlo ropes for he has been tryiug to straigh- '
en it, and in order to do so has so para *
led it iuto little pieces, arouud each of
which lie has carefully wrapped a white t
:ord. His pantaloons arc covered with c
parti-colored patches, coat ho has none, <i
through the slit in his shirt his ebony skin t
is plainly revealed. Around his neck is tied o
a crimson handkerchief, while the limp hat t
ou his head is covered with flakes of cottou. 1
Coming up to the porch he descries the 1:
suuny faced housekeeper at the epcu win- a
dow. t
"Good morning, Uncle Ilairson," I hear t
her say, "what have you got to sell this 1
morniug ?" 1
"I ain't nothing to sell this morning, '
Miss Comely. I just fotch in this here c
chicken. I clare fo' dc Lord de varmints is | *
a catin' up all my chickens. Mo an J do olc
'oman is havin a mighty bad tiuic dis year."
"I am sorry for that, but what do you
ask for your chicken ? I have been pay-,
ing a bit for that size." "Well, tell de trufa
Miss Cornely, 1 jus brung dis chicken to
you. Do old 'oman didn't want to sell hitv
'ease it's a pet chicken. She told me to gin
him to you wid her compliments, end to ax
you to scud her a bundle of quilt-pieces
and a little sugar and coffee, aud a piece of
tcrbacco, aud one of your old dresses, and a
par of Mass Alfoot's old pants fer old aprons
for de little gal, and some karosccu to rub
her back, ease she's got a mighty misery
iu it. No, Miss Comely, she dout waut to
sell dis chicken; she des calt me up and scd
"Now. Hairson, I done cotch dis yaller leg
god pullet and I gwine to gin him to Miss
Coruely," and so I jest fotch her along for
you. I'm gwine down town now, but I'l
stop in on uiy way back artcr de things for
de old 'omau. She took a heap of satisfaction
in ginnin' you dis chicken. Here she
is ma'am," handiug the "yaller-leggtd pulJet"
through the open window . "Miss
Cornely" took it with a pleasant smile, say.
ing : "tell Aunt Chloe I'm much obliged to
her. Ill get some things ready for you by
the time you couic back. I'm sorry to hear
she has rheumatism, but hope the kerosene
will cure her." With hat iu hand Uuelo | c
llairson made a bow and advanced toward | :
the gate, but suddenly turned and went c
back to the window to say, "You ain't got )
no cold biscuits in de bouse, has you Mi-s |
Corucly? I corned off so so'm dis uiorniu <
dat Chloo didn't have lime to do anything
but ketch your pullet for yer. She couldn't i
forget you, Miss Comely. I heam her say I
yesterday : 'No, I aint uever gwiuc to turn <
iny back on my white folks.' " i
A COLD BITE. (
Miss Cornelia called to the dusky woman (
whojwas sweeping the yard, and said :1 Go to '
the safe, Serena, aud get some cold biscuit
for Uncle Ilairson, aud I believe there is
some cold meat there, too; and bring him
some of that fresh buttermilk." Serena, a '
handsome well dressed mulatto, laid down 1
her broom and as she passed the porch I
heard her mutter: "I don't want to be a 1
waitin' on dat lazy nigger; ho no 'count no 1
way. Jest fotch Miss Coruely dat chicken
so lie could git Miss Cornely'H blue dress for
Aunt Chloo. Miss Comely would a gin 1
that dress to mi cf it hadu't er bin fur Uuclo
nairson. I am i got no uso for dat nigger
no way!" When Serena returned with tho
plate of cold food, Uncle Ilairson seated
himself on the lowest step ot the porch, de- 1
posited his hat on the ground and discussed 1
tho cold victuals with a most appreciative
appetite. When lie Dad finished ho called i
to the disdainful Serena : "ilcrc, gal, take 1
dese here tilings," and going to the window, 1
where Miss Cornelia still sat crocheting, be 1
said: "Miss Comely, my olo woman wuz '
mighty proud of dcui biscuits you saunt 1
by Temperance Jane. She said they did 1
her rbcumati/ a sight of good." "Well, '
Uncle Ilairson, I'll have to put somr biscuit 1
in the bundle lor her." "HawJ haw! hawl '
Miss Corncly, I wan't nowise hl>tiu' artcr
biscuits, but do olo 'ouiati will bo mighty ,
proud of oin, and doy'll help to keep up hor y
jpcrrits, for she's gwine to miss dat yaller- c
legged pullet mightily, case she petted her e
ill tho time. Law, Miss Comely, Chios v
wouldn't n gin dat pullet to any body but I
fou. Ifutl must bo a gwim. I'll stop in
irter the things." .
"All right, Uncle Iltirson." (,
I watched the negro until I saw him ti

AUAMINTA AND TH* fiABY. '
A long~oarcd white mule, with a burden
in its back, couies' down tho road. On
icnrer approach wc see, seated on the niulo
ginger' r adcolorod woman, wich a baby
it he* lap. The woman wears a rod calico
ress, over the lower part of which is fustcnd
a rusty black ridiug skirt ; her head is
domed with a plaid cotton handkurchiof
iud on in tho peculiar turbau fashion which
irevails now only among the plantation negroes.
The baby in her lap wcais n little
lip which seems to have borrowed its hue
rom tbe sunflower; its neck, nruis and feet
re bare. A limp sun-bonnet of dingy
vhito protects its bead uud iaco, and its
jody is encircled by tho protecting arm of
ts mother. Altogether tha^ whi^p muloi
vith its gayly dressed rfllers, forms a etrik*
ng picture. As they near tho gate tho
voman chocks her steed and calls out:
"Oh, Miss Comely, docs you want to buy
wo dozen aigs?"
Miss Cornelia nods assent from her staion
at the window among her flowors, and
hen in her sweet, rich Southern tones, says:
'How is your baby, Araminta? I heard it
ras^ick."
Glancing tenderly at the child, Aratnina
replies: '-Ycs'm, she's been mighty bad
iff. I don't ezackly know what docs aile
Ic chile. She ain't been peart for some
imc. She was took mighty curious liko^
ind I'zo done all I can for her, aud she
lon't get no belter. Poor little thing. I
lope to de Lord she'll die, for when my
lillorn guts sick dis way, Miss Comely,
,nd I can't git 'cm up again I's nigh about
lis'.ractcd. Pis hero chile's always becn^
lelicatc like, and dat makes mc lub hot
letter dcu I J? t'others, but all de samo, I
bopes de good Lord will <akc her homo to
lisself, case he know how to take kecr of
:hcr; and. I don't I got pleuty chillcru, too
vidout Sarah Jane, poor little thiug. But
I'm gwine to carry her to de doctor now >
ice ef he can do anything fur her."
Miss Coruely sent Serena with mo toy aud
>asket for Araminta's "nigs," and then, in
i deprecating tone, said: "Pou't talk so.
Arauiiuta; its all wrong. I hope the doctor
lan cure your baby, but you must be more
:areful about her diet. Give up that foolish
notion of uiakiug Iter cat some of every
lung that you cat; it is enough to make her
ick all the time aud kill hor at last." "My
do man told mc yesterday not to gin her
)ol"liquor aud greens, but I didn't mind
lim case he thinks himself so smart," said
\ 1**1 mintn " V? nnt l.> ll,?

jaby to the sun, either, Aarmtnta# "It
will give her u fever. 1 will lend yoijl an
luibrclla and Matthew can briug it back
vlicu he passes here on his way to the mill."
A GOOD-FOll- NOTHING NJSQtlO.
Again rierena mutters as she goes on h cr
aiissiou. "Dat good for nothii g nigger
;wine to spilo Miss Coruely's uu.brellu"
But when she hands it up to the mother I
loticc that she takes a handkerchief from
he pocket of her white apron and wipes
he moi.-t face of the baby as sb'e says:
'Jest keep the hankchcr, Araminta to wipe
arah Jauc's face, and you stop atrty house
is you goes home and let her have a good
lap, and I'll gin her souic blackberry corlial
it's first rate physic. Lor! bow do chilo
Iocs mind incof my poor little baby what
lied out to dc Mississippi bottoms wid dc
fuller fever. I'ze got de money uow dut dcy
out 011 her eyes artcr she died, and when I
lies I wants 'cm to put it on mine"
"Poor creatures!" says my hostess, coui?%
tig out on the porch and plucking a rose
*rom the clambering vine; "they suffer
Ireadfully from their ignorance. Tbey
lhvays depended on their owners to takccaro
if them, and have thcui properly nursed
luring sickness, and none except the houso
servants know how to care for each other,
[f wc could only teach thtim something of

hem a vast deal more good than all tho
ilgcbra which tho public schools arc tryng
to get through their thick skulls. They
ire nothing but grown-up children, despite
i certain shrewdness which often deceives
;he careless observer. You have to live
among thorn to know them. Patient and
uncomplaining they are beyond measure,
and pathetic in their childishness and improvidence.
I often wonder whether slavery
maao tnem tnus, or wnctner tfi<? excess
of these qualities mado them slaves. You
know the Indian could never be enslaved.
So saying, Miss Cornelia plucked another
rose, sniffed at it, and then tucking ono nt
her belt and the other behind her small
pearly car, retreated into the broad hall
from the too fierce glare of the September
sun. There is something very winning in
the unconscious grace and sweet uatnralneas

their movements, in their soft low tones, in

THE SEDGWICK
Steel Wire Fence.
THE above cut represents a section and Gate
of a strong, cheap and durable Steel Wire
Fence which is now being used at tho North
and Northwest in preference to any other kind
9f fencing. Wherever it has been tried it has
given great satisfaction.
It is a net work without barbs and will keep
out small pigs or any other animals that may
injure gardens or farm crops.
rt makes no shade and shelters no enemies
crops or poultry.
It is just the fence for Gardens, Lots, Lawns .
Parks and Cemeteries.
Being dipped in Kuat-proof paint it will last
a life time, and is better than board fence In
every respect. /
It is easily and quickly put op. * ' '?*.*
A Specimen of Fence and Gate
Can be seen at the Union Times Uffioe. where
all information as to prioe, Ac., oan be obtained.
