Orys little heart that is stilled forever, Never to throb t\ ith sorrow again, Safely at rest In that "far bright Ileavch," Gone from the world *f sin and pain. Marble-like lips, so cold in Ljcir stillness, Lips that have prattled so sweetly their lbvcj Lips that the angels now are tuning, To join in thr.ir chorus of praises above. Soft little hands folded softly together, Like twin lilies so spotless and pure; Dear little hands that only have dealt with All things sinless, stainless and true. Two little feet that e'en now are treading Their wav through the streets of ihe "City of gold";" Feet, the good shepherd safely has guided Into the door of Ins heavenly fold. Lily bright hair that oft you have fondled, Away from the brow with a ling'ring caress; Ah ! how gently the Saviour has gathered That bright little head to His sheltering breast!

And though they hive laid the casket away Under the dasies, under the sod, Just wlicf'e the sunshine may Ibtlnglj liiiger? Sumhinc of Ilcavcn? sunshine of God.

A Sudden Changn of Mind. A few days ago a tall, rough looking mountaineer entered the Union Railroad ticket office at Denver, and through mis take purchased a ticket for New York via the Kansas Pacific Line, when be wanted to go over the Union Pacific; lie did not discover this fact until after the ticket bad been paid for, and on ask ing tho agent to change it be refused to do so. "You won't change this ticket, then, won't you ?" "No, sir," replied the agent ; "you have your ticket and 1 have the money for it and if you want a ticket over the other route, you will have to buy it." Very*piietly, the stranger* twisted Iiis ticket into a small roli; very serenely be drew *roin under his right coat-tail a six-shooter about the dimensions of a mountain howitzer; coolly and deliber ately be stuck the twisted ticket into the muzzle of that six-shooter, and sticking the ugly looking thing through tho little square window of the ticket office, and almost in the agent's face, and speaking in the tone that left no doubt of his de termination, said : "Stranger, thar's that ticket; take it yourself aud j-hango it, or I'll blow it havo'go?tlcows^h^nes^w?yl?^^^e Tanner is to raise them. To do this, be niuVtJceep them better than they are generarfyc kept?give them better feed and botterwielter in winter. I will toll you how I raiserijy calves: When two or thr?&days old, I teach the calf to drink, givTh^git milk warm from the cow. As soon as rthas learned to drink, I give it skimmed nufk warmed a little, to which I add a small quantity of corn meal, about a tnblcspoonfuk^at first, aud gradually increase it to one two handfuls, with as much wheat brrrj if I have any. I givo tho calf this mc three times a day, until it can get plot of grass, then twico a day through fall, winter and spring, until it can ge, good bite of grass the second summer. Tho amount of corn meal each c| consumes by the timo it is ono year o| I.estimate \fi worth about five dolli jand 1 thiuk tbey uro enough diehefltted to more than' pay for it* I also give them a little corn meal thrice a day tho second winter. There is an old saying that "blood will tell." I know that feed will toll, for my stock, both old and young, show it ni eizo and condition. And I believe that farmers in this coun try can, talcing good common .stock to breed from, With proper care and treat ment, raise as good milkers as they do on the other side of the water. Why not? Their good food and good care has made their valuable stock what it Is; Why cannot the same result be reached I with our common cattle here ? Of course it would take time to do it; it took time f to do it. there. Their Jerseys; Ayrshirca and other valuable breeds were not orig inally what they arc to day, but with [*extra good feed and care, and selecting' the best to breed from, they have reach ed .their present high state of perfection. ?Li. II. Lines, in Journal of tlie Farm. Not many days ago at a camp-meeting in-, d man came up to the altar deep ly aflectcd and groaning in great bitter ness of heart. The good ministered about him and bade* him hope?that there were no crimes too black to defy the cleansing efficacy of the Holy Spir it. "I fear there is no hope for me," said the penitent. ''What have you done that is dread ful ?" asked the man of God. "Have ?you slandered your neighb-Jr?" "Worse than that" answered the pother. "Have you stolen anything ?" "Worse than that." ?'Have you murdered your brother?" ".Wr.rse. than that," groaned the a vnUened jm\!i. "Worse than that," faintly shrieked &i? miserable follow. "I voted-the radi cal ticket, and I have felt meaner ever since than if I had been guilty of all pud more than all that you have suggested." "Brethren," said the preacher, raising his eyes toward the congregation, "let us gather around this brother* and lift him on the arms of our united prayers ; and let no man stay away, for with the load of guilt th.it he carries it will take the last one of us to jostle him !" For some time past the farmers in the immediate vicinity of the phosphate man ufactories upon Charleston Neck have he-en suffering seriously from injury in dicted upon their crops by the vapor of J the sulphuric acid used in rendering the phosphate soluble. * The vapor condenses and falls upon the plants, stunting their] growth and injuring them irreparably. A large meeting of farmers was held yes terday at Dr. A. B. Hose's farm, near the Racecourse, when n circular letter to the presidents of the various phosphate companies was drawn up and signed. The letter sets forth full and clearly the grievance under whicn the farmers have been suffering, and concludes by asking that the chemists of the companies be in structed to devise some means of prevent ing a perpetuation of the grievance- Tlic letter also states that incase the farmer'? suggestions fail to be favorably received by the companies, application for re dress will be made to the legislature.? The subject will also be further consider ed at the next meeting of tho executive committee of the Agricultural Society of South Caaoliiia, which takes placo on next Saturday afternoon.?Charleston News. The Ku-Klux Hunt. The report of the Attorney General, just submitted to Congress, covers reports of district attorneys in North Carolina, South Carolina and other Southern States Where Fu Klux is said to have existed, relative to operations of lvu-Klux and enforcement Acts. They all agreo that all prosecutions under both these acts were vigorously enforced during the post year. They think the passngo of these trict Attorney' of North Carolina is of the opinioD|should not he p?nished fur ther than they h&vo already been _by confinement in the jails of that State. The deficiency in the department appro priation is, as already stated ? $300,000, for which an appropriation is asked. This amount was incurred in expenses of attorneys, marshals and other officers, in conducting prosecutions under the laws of Congress, principally in Southern States. To Hake Cows Give Milk. A writer who says his cyw gives all the milk.that is wanted in a family of eight person's*; Hud from which was made two hundred and sixty pounds of butter this year, gives the following as his treat ment. He says: "If you desire to get a large yield of rich milk giVe your cow every day water slightly warm, slightly salted, tu which bran has. been stirred at the rato of one qitaft to two gallon?": of water. You will find if you have not triad this daily practice that your cow will give twenty five per cent, more milk immediately un der the effects of it, ami she will become so attached to tho diet as to refuse to ?rlnk clear watet* unless Very thirsty; but this mess she will drink almost any time aud ask for more. The amount of this drink necessary is an ordinary water pailful nt a time, morning, noon and night. Four hundred pounds of butter are often obtained from good stock, and in stances arc mentioned where the yield was even a higher figure." ? Dressing for Church. There was a time when the good taste, demanded the use df tlio plainest clothes in the sanctuary, when the wealthiest were distingu?ned for their couspicuous absence of personal adornment, and sar torial display was a mark of vulgarity at auch time aud places. But now it would almost appear as if whatever might be thought of a modest garb^n other places the proper costume for the house of God where, theoretically- $q nil go to be re minded of our common origin or destiny; were an agglomeration of all the jewelry, and all the chignons, and all the pnuicrs, and all the feathers ami furbelows in one wardrobe. The wearer is to carry all this piled agony to the sanctuary as to a fair?as if her errand were not so much to praise as to be appraised?and there employ the sacred time in envious com parison of her own mountain of millin ery with the Himalayan tliumphsof her neighbor. The Redemption of Lands. We are receiving many letters in re gard to the redemption of lands in St. Helena Parish sold by the United States for taxes. It would save trouble to all parties if such inquiries were made direct to Mr. C. H. Wright, the U. S. deputy collcctorat this place, who is charged with all business connected with tho United States lands in this parish. Wo know that be will promptly answer all proper inquiries. No expense will be incurred by applying directly to him. The best way to find out the exact condition of in terests here is to send to Mr. Wright a statement detailing the description and boundaries of property sold. Give all the details usual in a deed or mortgage. If possible send a plot of the land.? You will get back from him nt ones all the information it is poss:blc to obtaift and directions bow to proceed further in the matter.?Beaufort Republican. Death of Cawlotta of Mexico.?

' "Do bats ever fly in the dftytit&dV' asked a teacher' of his clasi in natural history. "Yes, sir," a boy replied. '.'What kind of bats?" asked the teacher. "Brickbats!" yelled the boys* A city fop wa? taking an aif ibg in tho country, tried to amuse himself by quiz zing an old farmer about his bald- head, who solemnly remarked, "young man, when my head gets as soft as yours, I cart n i-e hair to sell."" Affected young lady seated in' tho rocking chair reading tho Bible; elx* claims, "Mother here is a grammatical error in the Bible!" Mother, lowering her spectacles nhd approaching the reader in a very scrutinizing attitude, says, "kill it! kill it! it is the very tning that lias been eating the book marks:" Wanted to Kn?w.?"I should likd to understand our position," said a trav eller to a gorgeous hotel clerk who had treated him indifferently. "Are you hero for my satisfaction, or am I here for" yours? If the latter, and such is the custom of the country, I don't object to it; only in that case it seems but fair that, you should pay me instead of my' paying you." The clerk couldn't. ?ee it in that light, but the traveller was made comparatively comfortable during tho rest'of his sojourn. When Burke made one of his famous attacks upon the crown civil list he was several times noisily interrupted by somebody who occupying an official position in the household; seemed to think himself the special guardian and champion of royalty. This officious per son kept reminding the orator every now and then, with vehement interjec tions, of his duty to the king. At last Burke paused in the flow of his speech, and declared that he perfectly understood it tobe his duty to honor the king, but lie did not thereby feel himself constrain ed "to honor the king's roan-serVant, his maid servant his ox, and"?fixing his eves upon the obnoxious intruder ?"his ass." It is not often that the hero of Fort Fisher is disconcerted. This occurred to him the other day in a most signal man ner. It seems that Mrs. Bowen, who, although unfortunate in ller husband, is remarkable, not only for her command ing presence, but a ready wit that has made people suffer ere this, had Borne business at the Capitol. She was in th? i Speaker's room with her escort when I General Butler passed. Under the im pulse of the moment, she rushed forward to address him. I "General Butler " she excldihfdd. "Madam," he interrupted, before sho could get out another word, "I make it a rule never to speak to a lady at the capitol. It was about as rude an insult as the Beast is capable of, and that is saying a good deal / The lady's eyes flashed as her face colored, and she said immediate ly, "And, I sir, have a rule never to speak to any but a gentleman nnywhere. I was about to break my rulo." J?y M any Hebrews, during the reign of Victoria iu England, have received Baronetcies.
