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

brow.

she sat still, and gazing reflectively at I
snowy hand on her knee.
"Oh, dear 1" she sighed, "I wish I ha

like Madge Madsden's ! How artfully ?
put up her little, fat hand, and pretend?
to be bitting her fingernails, so that

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;

I have denied myself a thousand thing
that you might be denied nothing. F roi

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!

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

conclusion that I did, eventually. Ever

that she was as lovely as she looked. Bi

then, and while 1 admired her form au

her character, equally. I have never see

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

"I looked at the mother. Poor soul
Her calico dress was old and faded; he

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

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.
