Civil Rights -Undo Hannibal.
"Good mornin', Uncle Hannibal; hab you
heard tho glorious nows?
Do swidgel rightses bill am passed, and
now dey can't refuse '
To pass a culled gemmon to the front
seats in the show; I -
Or to let him in de big hotel and de best i
room on de flo*.
"I golly, Undo Hannibal, dis niggah's
happy now? ? -
Ho'sgWine to sell hismuleand cart, and,
if lie can, his cow;
And he's gwine to take de money and
dress Miss Dinah gay,
And sit among the white folks eb'ry
oh en in' at do play.
"I used to be. so 'ligions, and pray dat
when I died,
I'd go to Hoben and fly around among dc
Bwanctified;
But Pso not. so anxiouB now, you sec,
since I hab got my rights?
For Heaben was nuffin more to mo dan
equality wid do whites.
"You's silent, Uncle Hannibal?is ydu
ailin' anywhar?
F'r'hopn youhadn't ought to stanxl out in
? the eoeniu* air"?
"No, chile, Ps well as nshill; but it
grieves me through and through,
To thinL: how littlo wisdom lies in what |
you's gwine to "do. *
"Dem great folks up in Washington, who
passed dis triflin' bill,
Hab forced upon de Suddern folks a
mighty bitter pill;
But while it harrows up dar souls and
stirs dar fiery blood,
It don't do us poor culled folks a singlo
ounce of good.
"You keep your horse and cart, my
chile, and don't you sell your cow,.
But Btay at home, if you are wise, and
follow up de plow?
Do field's de theatro for you, and if you
tend it well,
You'll live as good as white folks live,
and have some corn to Bell."
She May Not Have Loved Him.
A woman never quite forgets the j
man who has once loved her. She
may not have loved him; she may,
indeed, have given him the "no"
instead of the "yes" he hoped for;
bnt the remembrance that he de?
sired a "yes" ; always softens her
thoughts of him, and would make
him, wore he reminded of it, a friend
forever. There may be girls who
jest of discarded suitors; but they
are generally very young, and the
wooing has been something that
did not betoken much depth of
tenderness. There are mercenary
offers, too, that only awaken scorn
and hate in the woman wooed for
money and not for herself; but,!
really, to have touched a man's
heart, is something not to be for?
gotten while she lives.
m ? m -
A worthy old farmer, who was
recently being worried in cross
examination by a lawyer, at length
asked permission to put a question.
It was granted, and the privilege
resulted in this: "Look here,!
Counsellor C-, don't you ask a |
great many foolish questions?"
A butcher sold a sailor a ham on
credit, but finding in a few days he
had gone to sea, he growled, "If I'd
'a known that he wasn't going to
pay for it, I'd 'a charged him three?
pence more a pound-for it, the
rascal." ?,'
It is hard to do anything with a
boy. It is hard to. make him go to
bed, .and it iu hard to make him
get up. -
