I Wish He'd Mako ?p+Iis Mind. 1 w!sb lie-would intake Up his mind, mu, For 1 don't care much longer to wait, I'm sure J have hinted quito strongly That 1 thought of changing ji\y state; For a sweetheart he's too backward, I can't bring him out, thougli 1 tr3*; I own ihat he's very good tempered, lint then he's so dreadlully slay ! When I speak about love and a cottage, Jle gives me a look of surprise; Amt ii 1 but hint at a marriage; Ho blushes quite up to his eyes; 1 can't make him jealous?I've tried it? And 'tis no list? my being unkind. For ttutt's not the way 1 am certain, To get him to make up his mind I've sung him love sonnets hy dozens. I've worked him slippers and hose. Ami we've walked by moonlight together Tct he never attempts to propose! Yon must really ask his intention. Or some other beau 1 must find; For indeed 1 won't tarry much longer For one who can't make up his mind. Jhe Alabama Verdict. The bottomless Weaver, who is nt present engaged in being the candi date for president of that?in the lan guage of a deceased distinguished statesman?tld?d^bjarren;. ideality," the greenback: labor party, was proba bly subjected to a severe shock yes terday. By a mysterious and ponder ous process of reasoning he evolved from the vast and profound depths of his inner consciousness an idea. It was that the abstraction abovo aliud cd to which he represents, would be victorious in the election in the state of Alabama, and he triumphantly pro claimed two or threo weeks ago that Jin was going there to sec'and conquer. Weaver prided himself on Alabama. The teachings of his "party had been widely inculcated into, and absorbed by the eager, populace, nnd'hc, would either obtain a majority of the vote cast or scare the democrats so badhj that they would be completely de moralized by the time of the general election. D#a* before yesterday Ala bama spoke, and Weaver doubtless heaid her vioce. ? His own party, the independents and the republicans, are crushed and buried by a democratic majority of fifty thousand ! What has become of Weaver and the.-'green backers now? If a state they expect ed to win in defeated their combina tion (tho strongest they could possi bly make) by fifty thuusand, what will South Carolinado with.them? According to the old song, "Will, the Weaver" was currently repotted to be "a gay deceiver," but the Wea Yer at present under Consideration, seems to confine his decpMirjfiJ?} Cntjre. jy IP iitmselfi ApvSllc McT.nn^ his emaciated party will please rise and explain tho Alabama verdict, or receive sentence.?

'Flic Bennett family moved in the most fashionable ?ocjety in Cincin nati ten years ago; Tho father was the western manager for several life insurance companies, was worth about a milljon dollars, and bad a princely residence &t Clifton, a suburb of-the city. His wife was a brilliant beau ty, and the enter' uinmcnts over which she presided were notably fine. His daughter, Blanche, carefully rear ed and aducated, witty and pretty, was the light of the lpmsp. A son was the remaining member'of the family. Tho first change in tho house hold wa3 the elopement of the wife. She went to Chicago, where sho died in disgrace. The son fell among bad associates, and finally went to prison for stealing. In St. Louis, a few days ago, a ragged, rum-crazed wo man was arrested. This was Blanche Bennett. Tho heartbroken father, having lost his fortune, is a clerk in a wettern insuranco agency.

IT will ho apparent to any one who will examine a Solid Gold Watch, that aside from the necessary thickness for engraving and polishing, a lurgc propor tion of the precious metal used, is need ed only to stiffen and hold the engraved portions in piace, and supply the neces sary solidity and strength. The surplus gold Is actually needless so far us utili ty nnd beauty are concerned. In .1 AMES no^s' paten rcior.d watuii casks this waste of precious metal Is overcome, and the samk solidity am? stkknotii produced at from one-third to one-half of the usual cost of solid eases. Tho pro cess is of the limit simple nature, as fol lows: a plate of oickle composition met al, specially adapted to the puruosn i?*g two maiesof SOLID GOLD ?^Qi^J on each side.
