Q?txm Jn?tl?tgraa ttA fineliand is one of the first point beauty." Thus read Kate Palmer, as 6he sat the parlor window on a bright wii morning. Letting fall the magazine which she had been reading, she loo complacently at the delicate, taper finj, that, lay among the crimson folds of dress. Uer other hand, adorned v snowy culF and simple bracelet of crashed the brown curls that fell over brow. It was a pretty scene for those \ passed over the frozen street on that eh cold morning?a radiant, lovely piuti The lace curtains drawu aside, the a chair of blue plush, and the graceful ft that filled it, the merino dress look "warm and fleecy in the sunshine, the yoi head pensively bowed, the downcast e; and delicate profile, the shining curls a the lovely hand carelessly pressing thc It looked beautiful, and Kate knew it. she sat still, and gazing reflectively at I snowy hand on her knee. "Oh, dear 1" she sighed, "I wish I ha ring I I'd give all the world for a s?lita like Madge Madsden's ! How artfully ? put up her little, fat hand, and pretend? to be bitting her fingernails, so that might see lier diamond ! Engaged to married !?the idea ! She is as plain as pipe stem, and not much longer engage And Ir?well, everybody knows that I : pretty,"and where's the harm of knowi it myself??to face the truth, I've ne\ had an offer ! Of course, Madge is a fb I wouldn't have Dick Jay if he was hu with jeweln from his nose to his toes?r I ! -But there is one I would have, and o wouldn't I have diamonds, too? Well, takes two rings to get married, and bavn't either of them. To be sure, ther time enough yet. I'm just eighteen, a prettier than any girl I know, if I do say Shan't I feel old when I get to he twen though?" Kate was interrupted by the entran of her mother, a faded woman of fifi whose whole appearance indicated a li of labor. "Kale," said Mrs. Palmer, with sor severity, "you must do something. I' 60 tired that I can hardly stand, and he yon sit, hoar after hour, idling away yo time. Yon must do differently. Y< must-change your course. I cajinot < all the work any longer. The weather too cold, and I am not well. Cham your dress immediately, and come dow stairs." Her daughter neither moved nor spok and Mrs. Palmer sank dejectedly, into tl nearest chair. "There, mother," cried Kate, "you' spoil that plush ! The idea of sittir down in thc parlor with such a lookir dress !" Those words, "tho idea," conveyi Kate's strongest contempt. Mrs. Palmer iace wore an expression of despair. "My daughter," she said quietly, but i a voice that shook with feeling, "I a; growing old. I have labored hard 1 bring you up according to my theory < right. Too late I see that I was wron; I have denied myself a thousand thing that you might be denied nothing. F roi your infancy I have dressed yon elegantl; and always at the expense of my com for Yeal1 inland year out,.I have toiled like slave, that you.might enjoy the best a< vantages. What reward have I ? I ws content to live in four pleasant rooms, bu you wanted more style ; and since I ha never learned to deny you, I came her? I was content with three-ply carpels, am furniture of mahogany and haircloih. You must needs have brussels, and plus! with rosewood and marble. You wer ?ratified, but at a terrible sacrifice ! Thei never kept a servant ; now I ccrtainl; cannot. Yet the work is four times wha it, was, and I naturally thought that yoi would assist mc, but I mistook. Yoi must be dressed in elegance at times? anything is good enough forme. I canno - even go to church fur want of proper ajj parel. Your white hands must not hi soiled?look at mine! They are bruised and chapped, and swollen; hut no matter It is 'no one but mother, and she is old ! Yes my child, I am old, and scarcely abl< to toil on as I have done. I cannot long I fear that yon will live to remember titi: writh many a vain regret." Tlte daughter was silent, and the weary disappointed mother rose and left the room. "I don't care," said Kate, petulantly, ai soon as the door was closed. "I can't hel[j it, if she does work. I don't think I ought to ?poil my. hands.. 'A fine hand is one oi the-first points of: beauty.' So it is, and as loug as I can keep mine 'fine,' I shall. Mother's no inconsiderate ! She might know that I wouldn't bo lit for society, and would never be married in the world if my hands were disfigured* with house? work." A firm footstep sounded on the sidewalk, and Kate looked, eagerly out. With a blush of pleasure she returned the bow ol a fine looking young man who passed the house, a nd then, as if from a sudden im? pulse, turned back, ran up the steps, and rang the bell. Mrs, Palmer, as usual, at? tended the. door. When he entered the parlor, Horace Magna foundKate with one exquisite hand still supporting her head, and the other carelessly holding a magazine of fashion. She was just as beautiful?nay, more beau? tiful than when he had seen her from thc street.. Her cheeks glowed with emotion; her soft eyes beamed him welcome from their clear, blue depths ; her lily hand trembled in his, and the magazine fell beside her daintily slippered foot that rested ou a velvet cushion. But the light had quito faded from thc young man's face. He had suddenly grown cold and distant. She was as graceful, as affable, as entertaining as ever, but Hor? ace said little, and departed soon. He nover called again. Kate's white hands had waited, and her blue eyes beamed Lu vain. A year afterward, Horace Magna mar? ried' sweet Kitty Foster. Her hands were Hot white, not even shapely ; and she was very sensitive about them. Somehow, when they had been married a twelve? month, Horace discovered that Kitty didn't like that he should look at her hands. * ) "How is this ?" said he, playfully "what ails my Kitty? Ain't her dear li tie paws cluan ? or has she some lon: sharp nails that I ought not to sec?" Kitty laughed till she cried, and thc told him that her hands were so- home] that she couldn't hear to have him Icok ; t ike m. "If they were only beautiful, like Ka Palmer',s" said she wiping away her tear "Kitty, sit down here?I've somcthin to tell you," said he, clasping her tv hands in one of his, aud throwing his ar around her. "I once thought Kate Pa mer tho loveliest girl I had ever seen. . great many other fellows thought tl same, and I*guess they all came to tl conclusion that I did, eventually. Ever expression of her face, every word of Ik lips carried the conviction to my min that she was as lovely as she looked. Bi lips lie?so do faces 1 I didn't know then, and while 1 admired her form au features, and voice and manner I admire her character, equally. I have never see anything, in ait or nature, to compai with her hands; and Kitty?you don care now, do you ??I wanted to put tw rings on her beautiful fingers. Goin down town one winter morning, I consit ered what sort of ring the first should b< and concluded that a diamond?a solitain like your engagement ring, Kitty?woul best suit berstyle, and probably her tast< Thus reflecting, I passed the house, an saw her sitting at the window, one beat tiful hand up, so ; as if waiting for m gift. " 'Why not now?' said I, to myself, an turning, I went up, and rang the bell. "The door was opened by a pale, toi worn, grey haired woman, who had alway attended the door when I had been then She said : "'My daughter, sir? she is in the pai lor.' "I looked at the mother. Poor soul Her calico dress was old and faded; he apron soiled ; her sleeves were rolled u; and she wore no collar; her hair was di: arranged, and her hands!?I don't knov what they were like?worse than any sci vant's. She opened the parlor door am said : " 'Daughter, a gentleman to see you. and went away. "I mentally contrasted mother and child Kate's snowy cutts and collar, and daint; handkerchief, and bright dress; her slip pered feet and beautiful hands ! The; were all a contemptible sham, and stampe< her as a vain, proud, wicked woman, would sooner have drowned than niarriec that girl ! I despised her. I dcspise( myself for having fancied her. It wa with difficulty that I could treat her re spectfully, and I could hardly stay as Ion?: as civility required. After that, when '. met a pretty, engaging girl, my firs thought was: 'How does ?hc treat bei mother ?' "I found in you, my Kitty, one who wa; the sunshine of home; the helper (d' tin needy; the kind companion of brother ant sister; the self-sacrificing, devoted daugh ter. I know what it was, my darling, thai darkened and hardened these dear hands works of love ; every home service ; tlu faithful care that would not let a molhei bear 'thc burden and heat of the day. Bless you for hands like these, Kitty ! I: you don't admire them, remember thal they are minc. I will not have you depre? ciate my property, and 'run down' inj treasures ! "Meanwhile, wear this, and let it prove that 1 love these dear hands, and the gen tie heart that prompts them to works ol love." So saying, Horace slipped on her finger and exquisite ring adorned with a pearl, encircled with diamonds. A Ludicrous Scene?Two Youno La? dies in a fix.?A ludicrous scene occurred within a thousand miles of Indianapolis, not a great while ago, at least not long enough to bo forgotten. Two young la? dies wcro visiting another young lady, their cousin. Tho three were loud ol jokes, and continually playing them oil on each other. On the night in question, two of them attended a pat ty, from which they returned at half-past I- o'clock. Tho third one remained at home, and, to avoid disturbing her?for the three slept in tho same bed?and others in the house, they onterod through tho window. Heie a difficulty occurred, caused by tho fact L that, after they had left homo, a young minister arrived on a visit. Ho was given tho room occupied by the young ladies, and tho one who remained at home sat up to inform tho others that different apartments had been assigned to them. She waited in thc parlor for that pur? pose, but unluckily fell asleep and as the two young ladies did not come in by tho door, but stepped into their own room hy? the window, she slept on. When the two others entered they saw Fanny's figure, as theyr supposed, in bed, but were puzzled, also, to see by tho bedside a pair of boots. Tho truth flashed upon them bothatouce. They saw it all. Fanny had set the boots in tho room to givo them a good scare. They put their heads together and deter? mined to turn tho tables on her. Silently they disrobed, and as stealthily as cats took their positions on each side of the bed. At a given signal the}* both jumped into the bcd, ono on each side of the un? conscious person, laughing, uO, what a man ! O, what a man !" they gave the poor bewildered minister such a hugging timi trousing as few persons aro abm to brag of in the course of a lifetime. Tho noise of this proceeding awoke tho old lady, who was sleeping in an adjoin? ing room. She comprehended thc situa? tion in a moment, and rushing tu the room sho opened tho door and exclaimed : "My Lord, gals, it is a man ; it is a man, sure enough !" Thero was ono prolonged, consolidated scream, a flash of muslin through tho door, and all was over. Tho best of the joke is that tho minister look tho whole thing in earnest. He would liston to no apologies the old lady could make for tho girls. Ho would hear no excuse, but solemnly foldod bin clerical robes around him and took his departure. ?Kcio Albany Commercial. --<s? ? Tho local editor of a Georgia paper, announcing his retirement from his post, says that ho proposes to seek labor in a different field, which ho describes as "ono where the genial rays of tho sun spreads its golden light and fills tho earth with flowers, and smiles on loving nature with bright ami hallowed countenances." Re? duced to English this may perhaps mean that he is going to ho? corn. Conciliation. We have all, doubtless, read much, and heard much, upon the subject of concilia- j lion?how it is the duty of the Southern I people to conciliate the North, to bow the i neck and bend the knee,, as it were, to that great Baal of Despotism which has enthroned itself in the Capitol of the Na? tion, aud lords its tyranny over the unhap? py people of ten Southern States. What have we done to conciliate them for?? What have we done so heinous, that de mauds so much humiliation ? What have they done so generous, that demands so much gratitude ? Did we make war upon their principles, upon their rights, or upon j their liberties? Did we desolate their land, pillage their farm,?? and murder their wives amf children ? Were wc guilty of all these atrocities, and so merited for our? selves the terrible punishment which has been meted out to us? And to lessen the rigors of this deserved punishment, must v,c now submit, uncomplainingly, to all the indignities they choose to put upon ns, and tell them, with bowed heads and bended knees, your yoke is sweet, your burden light? llave they been so gener? ous as to spare our lives, which our wick? edness had forfeited, and thus have won our gratitude and humility? Did their generosity show itself in murdering our people, in insulting our women and chil? dren, in plundering our farms, in desolating our cities and lauds by fire and sword, in incarcerating innocent men in loathsome dungeons and prison houses, in placing irresponsible Military Dictators over us, in foisting illegal Conventions, and still more illegal Constitutions and State Gov? ernments, upon this people, in restricting the liberty of the Press, and tho thousand other petty acts of tyranny and oppres? sion which we have to suffer and to endure? Surely, it ought to he sufficient that we are compelled to endure them all, without requiring of us that further humiliation and shame of" conciliating such a j)Cople guilty of such a tyranny. Wc are conquered, we are powerless to resist ; but our people have not yet lost the spirit of manhood with wliich God en? dowed them, and when they are asked to conciliate their foes and their tyrants, they have no answer to give but the bitter mockery of scorn and contempt which they naturally feel for foes without and foes within. Wo sought to vindicate a right which they hypocritically acknowledged we had ?the right of self-government. Their su? perior numbers, and our limited resources, defeated our efforts. Our soldiers laid down their arms, the "the conquered Ban? ner" was slowly and sadly furled away, all with the vain belief that the conqueror was magnanimous and just ; that he w ould respect bravery and devotion to a cause at least believed to be just. Yes, vain belief! Xo sooner were the arms removed from the hands of the South than the heavy heel of the tyrant came down upon her neck, and grinds there to this day ! Three years have come and gone since Gens. Lee and Johnston, surrounded by overwhelming numbers, their little armies reduced and starving, gave up their swords, and with them the cause for which they had so long and so nobly struggled, and placed the South in the hands of those against whom they had striven and con tended. Three years of peace?three years of disbanded armies?three years of submission lo every demand upon us? and yet the heel of Tyranny grinds out the life blood, the energy, and the hope of the South; and yet the Hag of the Nation floats oxer a country half free and half op? pressed ; and yet thc weak-spirited and craven-hearted sing peana of praise to the generosity of that Government, to the glories ofthat "dishonored banner," to the forbearance of that exacting North, and urge upon us the duty of conciliation ! What are wo to conciliate for? Whom arc we to conciliate? How are we to conciliate? Alas! vve have conciliated enough?too much. We can now submit and bear?trusting in the goodness and justice of God to lead us out of the house of bondage, as he lead thc hosts of Isreal, to a land freed from the tyranny of thc oppressor, and blessed with that sunshine of freedom which our forefathers shed, when the day of American Independence first dawned upon this land. When the heel of Tyranny is removed, and Justice and Hight are once moie awarded to us, then it will be time lo talk of conciliation. Until then, wc have our self respect, our manhood, and our sense of justice lo maintain, and our political rights to contend for. As for the rest, we must leave that to GocL?Banner of thc South. -??. ?
