Julius Puppe, Anderson. J. A. Grigsbv, Ridgwav. H. W. Lawson, Abbeville. John I>. O'Neill, Newberrv. Trials of a Twin. In form and feature, face and limb I grew so like my brother, That folks got taking me for him, And each for one another. It puzzled all of our kith an kin, It reached a fearful pitch; For one of us was born a twin, And not a soul knew which. One day, to make the matter worse, Before our names were fixed, And we were being washed by nurse, We got completely mixed; And thus you sec, by fate's decree, Or rather nurse's whim, My brother John got christened me, And I got christened him. This fatal likeness ever dogged My foot-steps when at school, And I was always getting flogged, When John turned out a fool. I put this question fruitlessly To every one I knew, "What would you do, if you were me, To prove that you were you?" Our close resemblance turned the tide Of my domestic life, For somehow, my intended bride Became my brother's wife. In fact, year after year the same Absurd mistake went on, And when I died, tho neighbors camo And buried brother John. That Doy.?Who does not know that boy? He is numerous as the sands of the sea; he infests every neighborhood; every square of every city in the land has one of him. Ho is omnipresent, and almost omnipotent for evil. Ho has a htind in all that is bad, and knows not that which is good. Ho it is that per Buades tho good little boy of Sabbath school proclivities to play truant and "go swimmin'" with him that he may! conio back and enjoy his discomfiture when the parental protest and admoni? tion is being vigorously applied. He chftseth tho unwary cat and tieth tho tin can to the caudal appendage of the faniilj' watch-dog. He licth down to learn evil and riseth up to practice it, j and thus acquireth that wide-spread no- | toriety which puttcth his name in the mouth of every one. and maketh him n terror in the land. There is no hope of relief from his v?ickednesB, for he has existed from the beginning and always will. As the seasons come and go, and the bad boy of yesterday becomes the man of to-day, even so do others rise up to follow in his foot-steps and perpetuate a line we cannot hope will ever become extinct. Let our objurgations rest on him as we will, he yet remains to tor? ment and distress us. He is the inevita? ble whom we cannot avoid. In bis speech ac ? pting the nomina? tion for Governor of Ohio, Governor Allen said: "He heard old, gray-headed Democrats say to-day that they would not be satisfied with less than 50,000 ma? jority this fall. The ticket would be sent before the people with the aroma of victory about it. The ball had been set rolling now, and victories were in store for the Democratic party for fifty years, and they would all live happy ami die happy, and go to Heaven in a body."
