PUBLISHED EVXER YTLIURSDAY AT NEWIEIRY, S. C. The Confederate Dead. BY COL. THEODORE O'HARA. [The following lines are unsurpassed any}.hing of their kind in the English language. They are touching, beau tiful, eloquent and grand. One of the stanzas now adorns a monument in a Boston cemetery-yes, even in culti vated, conceited Boston, where they boast of their Longfellows, and Hol mes', and look with contempt upon all American literature that does not have its birth in Massachusetts. The au thor, a gallant soldier poet of the C. S. A., is now dead. He was on General Breekinridge's staff.] The muffied drum's sad roll has beat The soldier's last tattoo ; No more on. life's parade shall meet. The brave and daring few ; On Fame's eternal camping ground Their silent tents are spread, And Iory guards with solemn round e- Tness,convi The bivouac of une ar.. No answer to the foe's advance Now swells upon the wind ; No troubled thought at midnigh haunts, Of loved ones left behind ; No vision of the morrow's strife The warrior's dreani alarms No braying horn nor screaming fife At dawn shall call to arms. Their shivered swords are red with rust Their plumed heads are bowed, Their hauhty banner, trailed in dust, Is now their martial shroud ; And plenteous funeral tears hav< washed Their red stains from each brow, And their proud forms in battle gushed Are free from anglish now. The neighing steed, the flashing bladi The trumpet's stirring blast, The charge, the dreadful cannonade, The din and shout are past ; Not war's wild note, nor glory's peal Shall fill with fierce delight, Those breasts that never more shal feel The rapture of the fight. Like the dread northern hurricane = That sweeps his broad plateau, Flushed with the triumph yet to gain Came down the serried foe ; Our heroes felt the shock and leapt To meet them on the plain ; And long the pitying sky hath wept Above our gallant slain. Sons of the consecrated ground, Ye must not slumber there, Where stranger steps and tongues re sound Along the endless air ; Your own proud land's heroic soil > Shall be your fitter grave ; She claims from war his richest spoil, The ashes of her brave. So'neath their parent's turf they rest Far from the gory field ; Borne to a Spartan niother's breast, On many a bloody shield ; The sunshine of their native sky Smiles sadly on them here, And kindred hearts and eyes watch b) The hero's sepulchre. Rest on embalmed and sainted dead Dear as the bloody brave ; No impious footsteps here shall treat The herbage of your grave ; N~or shall your glory be forgot Where valor proudly sleeps. Yon marble minstrel's voiceless tone In deathless song shall tell, W~hen many a vanquished age hat! flown, The story how you fell ; Nor wvreek, nor change, nor winter'i No tim'remorseless dom Shal dimoneray of holylih That gilds your glorious tomb.

[Richmond Advocate.] It was a stride forward when Colonel Talcott was set over the Danville. He has the instincts of a gentleman. An experience of one or two years ago with some of the dethroned officials discov ered to me that their genius did not outcrop in civil behavior "usual among gentlemen." The thing that turns a decent stomach is to come in contact with a hog with the epaulets of au thority. As soon as I find myself in his sty, I climb out, wash with carbolic soap, and count myself "unclean until the evening," as the Levitical law en joins. I saw Talcott lately in behalf of a Methodist charity work. He did not grant the request, but his fine, bearing, like a scented salve, healed the disappointment in an hour. It is re corded of John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough, that men with wishes ungratified left him in better humor than they did the presence of dignita ries who had consented to their desires for positions and emoluments. So Lord Chesterfield says. Genri' atI ham had that .aW~~s wat ha-- an of manner. So ,_'Dmanager of the Chesapeake, . hose rare powers raised him from a clerk to the control of a transcontinen tal line-Mr. C. W. Smith. He left Richmond half a decade ago for the Vice-Presidency of the Southern Pa cific Railroad. I keep one of his visit ing cards with a pencil order on it to stop his fastest train at a certain ob scured depot if a severe necessity called me there. With obliging words he handed me the pasteboard slip with the sufficient words on it, saying he knew I would use it only in an ex igency. I never stopped his quick engines, but his friendly offices bore fruit. Not long afterwards I was on one of his rapid trains, when, by neg lect of an employee, it collided at mid night with a heavy engine. I was knocked senseless for a minute. A bone in my face was fractured. My head looked like it had come out of a "mill' with Sullivan. My limbs were tattooed in blue bruises. I'bled much, and a reporter published me as used up. The thirst for knowledge got the better of my bad wounds. I hob bled to the smashed engines and heard from first hands the story of the wreck. It was a damaging tale for the corpo ration. Virginia's greatest lawyer offered without money and without price to bring the company into court for the betterment of my finances. Presently an eminent attorney-an ex Judge-called on me as the best wit. ness for his suing clients. But the General Manager's clever card was in my pocket. It saved the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad thousands of dol lars! I never went before a jury as claimant or witness in that case. This is About Eggs. [N. Y. Sun.] A man busily engaged in holding eggs up before a candle attracted the attention of a reporter in Thbird avenue, near Forty-seventh street, the other evening. An interview was the result, and here it is : "WVhat are you doing ?" "Candling eggs. You see, I pick up each egg and hold it before the candle. The light shines through it. I can see at a glance whether it is cracked or speckled or spoiled. If it is cracked, I set it aside to be sold at a low price. Bakers and confectioners and some prudent fa,nilies buy cracked eggs, and they are as good as any eggs not cracked, but they must be used within twenty-four hours." "Is that not an old-fashioned way of testing eggs?" Yts ; but experience proves i1 to be the best, and it is quick. An expert can handle 30,000 eggs a day. it has been tried to test eggs by water. A good egg will sink and a bad egg will foat, but you cannot find out a speckled egg that way." "What makes speckled eggs ?" "Lying in one positiori. An egg shold not be left many days in one position. If an egg is turned every day it will-keep a long time. An ex periment was once tried by D. H. Den. nis, president of the Dutches County Creamery, as to how long an egg can be kept good. He kept one on his his desk nine months, and turned it every day, and kept it good." "How long are the best eggs kept bofore they get upon the tables. of the best hotels ?" "It takes about four days, because they are bought in bulk in the country, and must be carefully assorted before being placed on the market." "Bow are imported eggs kept fronm 'spoiling on a voyage.?" r".They are carefully watched and turned. They come in cases easy tc handle, and an expert soon learns tc handle them quickly. It adds aboul a quarter of a cent a dozen to the cost, but we can pay that and the freight, Sand yet sell the eggs that come fromt SFrance and Germany cheaper than we can sell Western eggs, and some thinki they are better. We can get them herE in about twelve days from France. England also gets many eggs fromi Germany and France." A Heroic Lad. A boy namedOscar Brinkman showec great courage during the recent stornx off the coat of Samoa. He is the son o: a farmer living near Fremont, Neb He was a sailor on board the Vandalia During the storm young Brinkman - together with several other men, was ~thrown overboard by a sudden lurch o tthe ship. He caught a floating planl and clung to it. Seeing one of his corn panions struggling in the water h< swam to him, and taking him by thi hair brought him to the plank, t< ~w)1ich both clung until a big wav< washed them on the beach. Although nearly exhausted, Brink man determined to do what he could for those on board the Trenton, whici .1seemed about to go to pieces. He per suaded three of the natives to accom epany him in a boat, and with a rop< establish a line between the shore ani the ship. They had only gone a little uway when the boat was upset by a bij wave, and all were strggling in the water. Presently it righted itself, however Sand they succeeded in reaching the ship with their rope, and saved man2 lives. f yt11lJT T S PROCLAMATION to readers of The Herald and News!

It may seem out of place to put the following "Advice to Young Men," by Bob Burdette, on the fourth page, but s< it ought to be a family affair to look after the qualifications above referred t4 to, and if the wife-hunting young man will not read it because it is in the u "Home Circle" department, the girls c will do well to read it and remember what part of it applies to the great expectations about their efficiency in s1 all departments of house hold labor. J here is what lie says: d "You say you demand a domestic, e useful woman as your wife. If that is so, marry Nora Mulligan, your laun- s dress daughter. She wears cow-hide f shoes, is guiltless of corsets, and never had a sick day in her life, takes in s washing, goes out house cleaning, and P cooks for a family of seven children, her mother, and three section men who board with herL4 'e'Er , -Jto ru le- n---- - i u would marry you, because Con Reagan, the track walker, is her style of man. "Let us just examine into your qualifications as a model husband, after your own matrimonal ideas my boy. Can you shoulder a barrel of flour and carry it down stairs? Can you saw and split ten cords of hickory wood in the fall, so as to have ready fuel all winter? Can you spade up a half acre of ground for a kitchen garden? Do you know what will take the lime taste out of the new cistern, and can you patch the little leak in the kitchen roof? Can you bring home a pane of glass and a wad of putty and repair damages in the sitting room window? Can you h'ng some cheap paper on the kitchen? Can you fix the front gate so it will not swag? Can you do anyth ing about the house that Con Reagan can? "My dear, dear boy, you see Nora Mulligan wants a higher type of true manhood. You expect to hire men to do all the man's work about the house, but you want your wife to do anything any woman can do. Believe me, my son, that nine-tenths of the girls who play the piano and sing so charmingly, whom you in your limited knowledge set down as mere butterflies of fashion, are better fitted for wives than you are for a husband. If you want to marry a first-class cook and experienced house keeper, do your courting in the intelli gence office. But if you want a wife, marry a girl you love, with dimpled hands, a face like the sunlight, and her love will teach her all these things, my boy, before you have learned one-half of four own lesson." Woman's Progress. [New York Herald.] In Washington's time women had scarcely any rights or opportunities out of the domestic circle. A married woman was a legal non entity. The husband was the legal guardian of the wife, or rather he pos sessed all the rights of both. In law the twain were one, and that one was the husband. To-day a wife is in many respects a distinct, independent being in law. She may acquire, hold, convey and will property. She may engage in business, carry on trade, made contracts. She may sue and be sued, may enforce her rights and defend them. Both married and unmarried women have acquired political rights. In cer tain Territories a suffrage equal to that enjoyed by men has been conferred on them. In some States they may vote for certain officers and hold certain offices. Everywhere there is a growing tendency to enlarge the political rights of all women as there is to enlarge the civil rights of married women. Still more striking has been the open ing of a vast and varied sphere for the occupation of women. In literature they have come to the front in lqrge numbers. In trade and industries count less thousands are employed. They are found in office and store, in shop and factory. A large proportion of the sex have ceased to be dependents. They have become wage earners and self supporters. They are respected and honored for battling with the necessi ties of life and earning their own liveli hood. And this vast army of enmployed wo men and girls is destined to increase with every coming year. The Devil's Dictionry.

Humphrey wrote that the national Republican perty would fur nish all money necessary for this pur pose.

This road is in a miserable con dition with rotten cross-ties and worn out railing. Steel rail. or new iron ones, are needed very badly, and it is never surprising to hear of a wreck.

The May number of Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly, crowded as usual with attractive pictures and good read ing, opens with a well illustrated article, by George C. Hurlbut, on "the Paris Exposition and its Significance," which is of special interest and timeliness, closely preceding, as it does, the open ing of the great French Universal Ex position in commemoration of the one hundredth anniversary of the fall of the Bastile. IA review of the principal "Artistic Conception of Cleopatra," ac companied, amongst other illustrations, by John Sartarn's beautiful copy of the ,Encaustic Tablet found at Hadrian's la, materially nelps the imagination to faYnev how Egypt's queenly beauty looked.."Madame de Sevigne's Grand mother" 1s a plea.sant bit of literary biography; and the fully illustrated articles on "the Lake Michigan Region" and "Glasgow" ably .represents the de partments of travel and~ description. These are only a few of the many at tractions in the form of storiessketches, essays, poems, scientific artielg\ art illustrations, which make up a mn number of this popular magazine. The May Eclectic presents many in teresting features. Mr. Ed ward Whym per has a strong ex position of the Pa nama Canal and the causes of its fail. ure, presenting details not hitherto known to the public. Prof. Goldwin Smith has a very interesting article on prohibitionism, as shown mn recent agi tation in t he United States and Canada, which throws much light on the vexed subject. One of the miost brilliant and scathing papers recently published is that by Robert Bwchanan on "the Mdern Young Man as Critic," which cuts to the quick some modern literary tendencies. Dr. Ware replies to Prof. Huxle.v in this number with a keen ness of logic which will exeite miuchi at tention in America, as it has already in Europe. All interested in the contro versy of Agnocsticism sho,uld read this paper. Alex. Innes Shand discourses in a suggestive and delightful way on "The Pleasures of Sickness," and Mr. H. H. .Johnson, the distinguishe?d Afri can explorer, hans a powerful article on the usefulness of foreign missions, con trovertinig the views of Canon Tay-lor, recently publhIished in this magazine. The other papers cover a wide variety of topies, and are all charmingly writ ten. Among these, special attention may be called to "Celestial Photo graphy." by Sir Robert S. Ball.
