JESSIE'S DOLLAR.
:r,/f'.'Therc'a pnmctliing to "buy sugar-plums
wan," U.icle Mark said, with a good-bye to
his little niece, Jessie.
She kissed him and gave him a good hard
hag, by way of showing her gratitude. After
he had gone, she opened her hand nud
smoothed out the rumpled note. It was a dol
lar.
Jessie Marsh was used to having considurn
Mo spending money. Uncles, aunts and coils
fus kct hur pretty well supplied. She was
one of those bright, merry girls who are al
. ways smiling and huppy, and a great favorite
' with everybody?ready to do a favor, hold a
?kein of yarn for grandmother, look up her
papa's slippers, aud run up-stairs or down-stairs
,:i for a mispluced or forgotten article. Perhaps
this was the reason why she received so many
^ifts of one kind and another; for even visi
tors at tho house always went away with a
pleasant romembrance of cheerful, obliging
Jessie.
Mr. Marsh was in very comfortable circum
stances, and extremely indulgent to his little
(daughter, fSivo Wim tho only girl, and there
Were four boys in the family. If Jessio ox
pressed ? wish for a book or u toy, he always
brought It home to her. I am sorry to say
that Jewio was rather earoless and extravagant.
*To bo sure she made glad many a child's heart
by gift" ?f m'-r playthings when she was done
With themi but she tired of them very soon
?hod Wanted new ones, i'ennies, quarters, and
v ven half dollars, often went fur some trifle
that presently lost interest to hcf. Mrs. Mursh
?tvieM to ilwok this fault Itt her daughter but
her father genyfally cuuio to her rescue.
'?Let her take her own pleasure with tho
money," ho would say. "I dislike to sec chil
dren* mean and parsimonious."
But Mrs. Marsh took every occasion to di
rect Jessie, although her advice was not always
followed.,
Jossie^.vvas still holding the dollar in her
hand as tho mother re-entered tho room.
.rv-t .if) i f*y%'j; rl
'Sec what Uncle Mark gave .me?to buy
sugar-plunw with she said," aud.^radiant smile
illumined Jessie's lace.
"And only yesterday you were wishing for
a dollar," her mother replied.
The smile faded a little at that. Jessie had
been listening to a poor woman's story the day
before. Mrs. Marsh had given her some sew
iug, as she was very; anxious to earn money
enough to pay her rent. Counting up what
she was likely to get from one and another,
left her still a dollar or two short. Ordinarily
Mrs. Marsh would have overpaid her, but now
she had a mind to put Jessie's generosity' to
the test. The little girl had been quite
thought!*. 1 for some time after Mrs. Adam's
departure, and at last had said :
"Oh, mamma ! I wish I had a dollar; I
would givo it to Mrs. Adams. How hard it
must be to earn money enough to take care of
herself and those three little children!"
''Yes," her mother answered gravely. "Wo
ought to bo thankful that God has placed us
nbovu want."
Jessie went to her bank. It never hud a
very large surplus on hand. Twenty eeuts,
that was nut near a dollar ! So she gave a lit
tle sigh.
This was what her mother's words recalled.
She looked rather* sober over it foi several mo
mcuts.
"A dollar is a good deal for a little girl to
give away," she said slowly, as the result of
her thoughts.
"Tt did not seem so yesterday. It is often
easy to be charitable with that which we do
I not possess.
'?One r;in't give when one hasn't'anything,"
and the absurdity mude her. smile a little.
??And it is unfortunate not to have the heart
and the money at tho came time"
-wi.iilo did act i-^pJjr: - li wn?? -nearly wcliuot
timo ; so she hunted up her hood, her squirrel
tippet und muff, and her good warm cloak.
She had never suffered from any cold or neg
lect, and there was u sudden rush of gratitude
in her heart, for it was a sweet, true and ten
der heart.
"Good-by. mamma," and she came to kiss
her. Then sho strapped her books together,
hung them on her arm, and run down the
path.
Should she give Mrs. Adams her dollar?
There were so many things that she wanted.
She just halted at Wafiicr's store window,
iThere was a box of paiuts that were only a
dollar?she had made two or three ineffectual
attempts to save up itcr money and, get them.
And there was u crying baby, with the love
liest blue eyes. Her dolly was past the crying
stage?she would just go in and price this
one?it was such fun to have the squeaking
little thing ! "Seventy-five cents." It was a
beauty. And there was lovely toy, in the
shape of a pretty carved egg-oup. with an egg
in it'. 'When you touched a spring in the bot
tom of it. the upper half of the egg Hew off,
and the prettiest little fairy made you a bow.
That wus a dollar. And a drawing slate, with
such a charming variety of landscapes, castles,
birds, flowers, and nearly everything. Oh !
what .beautiful things one could buy with a
dollar 1
f * Will you take this baby ?". and the shop
keeper made it cry like a real live baby, and
all the while there was such a roguish look in
its eyes.
"Not just uow," Jessie said, faintly, and
turned away.
??Oh! you like this cup better;" and thed
the woman made tho fairy spring up so sud
denly that Jessie jumped too. J low she could
startle the boys with it!
?*I won't take auy of them now," Jessie
said, with stuhlen determination, and then went
out. She had to run to school to be there in
time. .
At recess Martha Lee displayed a beautiful
rubber ring, with a pearl in it. Jt looked so
pretty on her white slender fingers.
"It cost just a dollar," she sard, "and I
saved tip all my pennies to buy it." Then she
let Jessie try it on. The boys had made .Jos
sio several rings, but they had not the smooth
finish of this. Aud then the pearl !
"1 mean to have one," exclaimed Bell An
ders ; "1'vo about seventy eonts saved up."
Jessie looked at her linger, aud decided that
she wanted ono also. To ho sure there was
her pretty birthday ring, with rubies, but that
wnsu't black. Tho pearl looked so lovely in
its jetty setting.
: Poor Jessie ! By the timo she had gone
homo to dinner aud come bank againt Warner's
stoto seemed as full of treasures us tho magic
cave, and there were so many things that cost
just a dollar. Her money was fast burning a
hole iu lier^oekw. * Itseoms etnibge that it
should have ihis faculty, but it dues appear to
produce a curious kind of combustion. Bid
you never feel your fingers tinglo aud burn
when you touched thrco or four pennies iu
your pocket, and could not almost taste the de
lightful tally candy that tho little old woman
two doors from tho school sold ?
Mrs. Adams' palo face and truubled eyes
iuturfurred with Jessie's peace of miud. .She
certainly thought yesterday that if she had a
dollar she would give it to her. Why did she
not want to nor? ?
'?Clara Adams hasn't been to school to-day,"
Miss Trusdell said. "Who goes near her
house Vi
Jessie swallowed a great lump that seemed
tu rush up from her heart.
"I'll call, Miss Trusdell."
"Thank you, Jessie. Clara ought not to
miss u day. 1 urn afraid she i? sick."
So Jessie went around by another path, al
most afraid to pass Warner's again. It was a
cold December day, cloudy now, and with the
appearance of snow. Tho wind nipped Jes
sie's rosy cheeks, but she did not miud. Here
was the little cottage?rather cold aud forlorn
looking, it must bo confessed. Jamie answered
her tap at the door.
"Oh ! come in. Miss Jessie !" Mrs. Adams
exclaimed ; and Jamie shut the door quickly,
so the bitter air would not rush in.
"I called tu see why Clara wasn't at school
to-day," Jessie said.
Clara blushed. Mrs. Adams luuked rather
troubled.
"You're not sick if"
"Xu, Miss Jessie, it wasn't that. Hut Clara
hasn't any shoos. Shu would freeze her feet
iu those uid ones; besides, they're out to the
ground."
Jessie east a furtive glanco at them?old
and shabby indeed. She thought of her own
hall'-woru boots, but, although Clara was a
smaller girl, her feet was larger than Jessie's.
No, that would uot do.
"I ordered her a pair at Mr. Gregg's, and
they're duiie?only he will, not let me have
them until I pay down a little. And I've just
money enough lor my rent, which is duo to
uj?.. rt.r\Y. Mr. Dallas is ? nard landlord."
"Then you have all the money ?" Jessie said
gladly.
"Yes, I am thankful fur that; but Clara
must wait until next weck. I shall have to
earn some inure.
Jessie talked to Jamie and Charlie awhile,
and listened to the praises uf her own dear
mammy, who was always doing a kind turn
fur everybody. And a plan came into her
miud ; but she could not have a crying dull,
nor a paint box, nor any of those charming
toys that she half coveted. She said good-by i
to them presently, and went straight to Mr. j
Gregg's.
A woman in a faded shawl was standing by
the untidy couutcr. She had been binding
some shoes, and brought them home.
"I can't give it to you, because I haven't a
cent in the place," Mr. Gregg was saying.
?'People won't pay mo, and I can't pay
others."
"Hut we actually haven't anything in the
house?not a muuthful of dinner.even;" and
hero the poor woman's tremulous voice broke
down. -- _m
Jessie felt like crying, too, but she winked
away tho tears with a groat effort. Then slm
usked Mr. Gregg about Clara's shoes.
"There, they are," ho said rather brusquely,
and nodded his head toward a stout pair
standing on a little shelf. "Good, strong ones,
too, and dirt cheap, and yet they can't pay for
them. I'm dono trusting; its a poor plan,
and it keeps mo like a beggar."
Then ho hammered spitefully upon his
lupstonc, aud looked savage. Ho was a surly
old follow.
"Will you let her have them if I give you
;i dollar now, and promise to pay the re.-l if
they eau't?" Jessie nsked bravely.
"Yes, Miss."
Out came Jessie's dollar. Spent for a pair
Of coarse shoes that had not a hit of beauty or
grace, like the fairy or the doll, or twenty
other things.
The poor woman approached again : "O.
Mr. Gregg-!"
"Well, take it." ho said ungraciously.
The thin fingers clutched it nervously, and
she almost stared at Jessie.
"Will you send them down to Mrs. Adams
to-night? I'll ask papa for the rest of the
money. How much is itV
"Only a dollar, ('heap, enough, I must say;
but I do my work for about uot hing."
When Jessie was in the fresh air, trying t'>
breathe out the smell of wot leather and shoe
maker's wax, a hand was laid upon her
shoulder.
"Heaven bless you, child," a faint voice
said. "You have done a kind deed tor a
friond, and been the means of blessing a
stranger. My poor old mother and i were
Absolutely at starvation point. God must have
scut you hither"

nothing to her then. She ran down tho
street^ with, a light, happy heart.
''H^w.lato you are," Mrs. Marsh said, as
.Te-sie/outered. It was du*k in tho cosy
silting room.
'Oiiiwma,''. she said presently, "I must tell
you; .a have, spent my dullar. And I've had
such t,dd time! l!m satisfied though."
Thin Jessie tuld her mother the whole
story. ] ,Mrs. Marsh kissed her tenderly.
Ilu5 .th.it was uot the end oi'it. Jessie's
dullar); was likely to have quite a history of its j
own. , j
.Some, time after, on one Saturday, old Matt,
who game \ip to tho Marsh's to do chores aud
rongh."wurk, made his appearance, iu a good,
warin|; Woolen jacket.
"liOw nice and eomlortable you are, Matt," ,
Mrs. Marsh said. "I was thiukiug a lew days
ago how. much you needed such a garment."
"And it came to me most like A present, a
queer sort of way that I wasn't counting on.
There's a poor woman who docs a little sewing,
aud binds shoes for Gregg.-?She came over to
our house for loaves of bread, and she'd run
up quite a bill whou she stopped. For a
while. I didn't he; i anything from her.
'We'll1 never ask the pour erector for it,' 1
said to mother; but last Wednesday she
brought a dollar to pay up the back and get
some mure bread. So says mother: 'Xuw,
Matt,-..you must have a jacket right away, fur
I neyer expected to got this money at all.
Andj'I have fifty cents that I can put to it,
and -it will just du.' So now I shan't bo so
likely, to get tho rhoumatiz in my shoulders.
The Lord sends everything round about right.'
Jessie glanced up at her mother. Her
dullar had benelitted even Ma?t.
?V-jll yuu toll nie where this poor woman
lives?" Mrs. Marsh asked; and that after
noun -she and Jessie set out to find her, aud
word lu time to rescue two human beings from
starv.at.tou.
""What a wonderful dullar!" f.'ncle Mark

Speech of (Jov. Seymour at Buffalo,
Now York.
Gov Seymour, at Buffalo, arguing the fail
ure of reconstruction, concludes:
Anuther great objoet and end vjas tu lift up
the African as fur and fast as cuuld be wisely
dune. Humanity dictated this; tho interests
of the white population of the South detuaud
ed it. As the twu races were tu live upon the
same soil, their common interest called fur har
muny of purpose and of fadings. Under this
state of tacts wise men would seek aid of the
must intelligent and influential men of that
section of the country, taking cam to guard
against any influences springing from their
projttdices. Have these obvious truths been
regarded by the meu in power ? Has nut re
construction failed because they disregarded j
them 'i The first step towards restoring order
and producing harmony between the races was
always to minister to tho prosperity of
that section, which prosperity would bo shared '
alike by the white man and the negro. Tho
industry of the South should he made profita
ble.
IIulos the employer made a prulit upon his
cotton crop he could not pay the lahurer. Fail
ing to do this the disaster brought not only
poverty but confusion aud discontent. True
statesmanship would have stretched out a help
ing band.
But what was the first act of the men in
power. It was to put a monstrous export tax ,
of six cents a pound upon the Cotton raised by
the labor of the negro upon the plantation of
the white. Struggling with the evils of pov
erty, with the difficulties of the new positions
and relationships, tho lir.-t feeble efforts of
these people to gain the means of livelihood
were blasted by an unwise, selfiVh and vindic
tive act. 1 say unwise, because it has much to
do with the lot tire attempts of the Republi
cans to restore order at the South. The negro,
exasperated by the failure of his ruined em
ployer, became hostile to him. The employer,
losing the little credit that he had before in
the North, renewed his efforts under still
greater difficulties than before. 1 say it was a
I selfish act, because it was done in the interest
of the. Kastem manufacturer, already wealthy
from the war. protected, as he was, by enor
mous tariffs. This tax of six couts a pound
upon all cotton exported was simply imposed
so that he might buy it for a price six cents
j less than it was worth in the markets of the
woild. I say it Way a vindicative act, for if you
will read the debate In Congress, when this
tax was levied to eoVer tho selfish interests
thai prompted it, you will find that it w. 3
urged uj'ou the members front the Western
States, who voted against the interest? of their
constituents, upon tho ground that it was to
bo imputed upon the South as a penalty, aud
thus we find that the black and the white men
of the South were alike strippcdjOf the market
value of their staple product Under circum
stances of such great difficulty that they were
hindered and not helped on the read to pros
perity by theuien in power. [Applause.
1 might go on and show how in addition to
this wrong they were trampled upon by
military despotism aud how they were placed
under the unrestrained power of vagrant men
who gained wealth and official position by min
istering to tho passions of the public and keep
ing alive disorder. These men who are now
iu the .Senate of the United States, without
Constituent*, vote down the Senatorial repre
sentatives of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Illinois and Indiana, gained their power over
the South and over us because they ministered
to the passious in the North and stirred up
disorder iu the South. Who of the fair min
ded, thoughtful Republicans will calmly sit
down and look over this action aud not feel
that tho policy of his party bus been unwise
and hurtful.
QUESTIONS FOR RapICALH.?If reconstruc
tion is a success, why isu't tho array with
drawn ?
If tho Radicals want peace, why did they
propose to arm the negroes ?
If the Radicals mean equal rights, why do
they advocate one currency for capital and an
other for labor?
If tho negroes can vote for themselves, why
pay the bureau to teach them ?
If the Radicals mean equal rights, what do
they put the negro above the white nfan for ?
If the Radicals want impartial sufTrage why
does their platform say one suffrage North aud
another .South?
If the Radicals want peace, what are they
running their candidate on his military merits
for?
Is it impartial 6ufTrugo to enfranchise the
black aud disfranchise the white man ?
The Radicals, now that they fancy they
have elected General Grant, arc throwing off
the mask boldly. Ihc Evening Post is already
agitating for laws to deprive foreign citizen*
of tho right to v**te ibr a year after they shall
have been naturalized : Tho Southern negroes^
who have never been uaturalized at all, may
vote at "once. The Irish and German emi
grants, who belong to our own race, have been
bred to freedom, and make up the great army
of our Northern workers, are to be put on
probation. If the Germans aud the Irish
object to this, of course they will be denounced
as "rioters," and "put down," we suppose,,by
the black regiments of the regular army. Let
