Isaac du-lit Miss P Rebecca by shining her eyes with a pair of earring that-cost 'him 75 cents Mrs. Jacob didn't have but one daughter, and Josephus, -the historian, says that the reason Miss Dinah went over to Shec hem was she wanted to ,see the finery of the women of that city.

I got down the fiddle and let her saw on it with the bow. I tickled the dogs foot aa he slept on the rug ana so by shifting the scenes. 1 kept hee little mind employed until the little eye began to droop and with a sigh and a sob i.hi st to sleep. V It was a struggle against time j and her mother came soon after I had whipped the fight. They all came and Ihey came a talk ing and they were so sorry that I missed it all. for it was a fine wedding and a fine feast and a very fine party, and everybody was so nice and the young folks were splendid, and the bride was a picture and her maids were charming and the music exquisite and the presents were just magnificent and ether ad jectives and adverbs, interjec tions and exclamations too. te dious to mention, oh yon ought to have been there, you don't know what you have missed. I know it all now, I think I dor eveiy bon mot, fox pas and Jew de sprit, I know which had the " rhoet beautiful dress and which the sweetest manners, I know wht) was the finest look ing gentleman and who was the hungriest, and who the thirst iest, and who was the most cap tivating I know all about the beautiful presents and who gave them, and how lovely the btide looked, and how long was her train and all about her pearls and diamonds', and what the preacher said. Uut it wasent an old fashion ed wedding after all, for the bride and the groom left all that goodly company about 11 0 clocfc and came to town and took the midnight tram for Florida, slipped away like they were ashamed of the business. 1 never did like that. They might have stayed a few days anyhow, and comforted the poor muther, who has given up bar only child to a man who is no liiu to her and never did any thing for her except to give her a ring and bird and a poodle dog, and a few other presents that won't cure the heartache nor stifle a pain nor asigh. They might have stayed a day or two and had an infare at the groom's mothers like we used to do in the good old times. Bat we never hear of infares now and our grown up children dident know what an infare was until their mother told them. It is an old Scotch custom, and I like it. When we were mar ried we had a big time, too ac cepting the silver presents, and I stayed that night at her father-in-law's, and that was the infare, and then we never took no train for nowhere, for 1 had work to do and we just lived back and forth among the old folks until we were able to build a two-room house and set up for ourselves family fashion. I was ruminating abont'three beautiful wedding presents, these silver forks and spoons by the grots and silver tea ser vice and silvery things, and how they may possibly come into service sure enough and be very handy sometime if the wolf ever comes to the door, or if we should have another war and the currency get worthless like it did in the last. I remem ber when some oi our best peo pie had to slip round on the sly and sell a few spoons or a few forKs to get something to live ob. una time l gave a broken down man &I.OCO for half a doz en old -time honored table spoons that had been in his family for four generations and kept as a family relic. It hurt him bad to part with them but I thanked him for using thac much of my worthless money Silver things are very beautiful to look at, but Solomon says: "He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver." On the whole, I don't know that there is much difference be tween these silver wedding presents and the kind that we got when we were married. Ours were black and tan color, and walked about, and didn't have to be kept under lock and k?y, but they eat up and wore out a power of vittels and clothes, and I never could make the account ballance, until the war was over, with an excep tion they were an expense and a care, and gave us trouble. Of coujrse I do not count. Tin for Tip was never our slave but was our friend. Tip - grew.- up with the children and waa one of them. Tip was my trusted confidential servant. No, I dont think there is much dif ference iu the r presents then and the presents now. One gave us the love of dominion; and the other gives us the love of show. Then let the procession. proceed.

Apropos of the following article from the St. Lonis Republic, the ed itor of tbe S;atdvi!le Landmark says: "We set up tbe claim, .and do it boldly, that the article, 'Poor Whites,' is worth the price of the ! paper for one .year. If true of the Landmark, it is sorely so of-the Advance Editor, In a bouk recently written on American iustimtioiis, nd iQceQX tended as a text-bok, a New En gland college professor Speaks contemptuously of what he calls tbe "poor whites" of tha South, as a clas which cave I ttla for liberty and does not know how to niaiutaia, it He does not eem to be gailty of falsehood; he n telling. the truth to the hest of his aVuty, Vnd if his erior leads him into slander, it is uot bacauso of malice bnt because of a deficieijt knowledse of Ameris can history, influenced to some ex tent perhaps by the contempt for poverty wiiij'a is uafortonately too general. If Mr. fiosmer knew the history of the yeomen ho . calls "poor whites," he would kwow that the gravest duiccts of their character are intimately connected with a love of liberty often unreasoning and sometimes fierce. They belong to a race wfech now, as when Kobin Hood took to Sherwood Forest with their ancestors agaiasc the Normaa sheriffs, prefers liberty to every thiiig ehe, aod sacrifices for it rnouey, cuRuie, comforts, every thing which in toe views of thoae who despise them makes life desi rable. They havr bc-ea the pio neeis of America'? civilization. Their love ot liberty - pushed' them beyoud thi mouacaiu into the ua knowa West, bat even before they had" followed Dmio! Txione iato The Bark and B'o:!, 'Gfound," they had stvuck !i rd ikows lor freedom, Icis a most singular ig norance ef history which impeaches their nn-mal coara'ge when the gla.ing fault toeir character is in readiness to gtip l.heir weapons id Ldec!de every questiuu raised against them mnu to man and steel to steel. Ihey are "weapon ed men" now as they were when they iollowed Heogist and Horsa. They do not belong to th -class which went oat from Boston to pe tition Washington to alloy the be leaguered Bri Uh to escape for fear of (iistuibing tiade .and damagitig the shops by -a fight. They are ach men as snrfoanded Bacon, Hansfoid, viuee and Drum moud in the uprising against Berke Iv under Chat lea II. Oar college professor knows so little of Ameris can history that be thinks they do not love liberty yet : Such love fried all the heart ot Drummond when hi 1 rand Of his own hom made Liberty a beacon light. Of this class and of this blood was Patrick Henry, foremost iu tbe breach for freedom, and of this blood, too, was Henry ' Clay, born almost in sight of birth-place of Patrick Henry. When the hopes of liberty were at their lowest ebb, when such a march through the confederated colonies was being made by tbe Eng'i3h as Sberman af terwards made to the sea through the Confederated States, these !poor whites" crossed the moan taios, and, under Shelby and Se vier, struck, at King's Mountaiu, the blow which turned tLe tide of the devolution back on Yorktown. And at about the same time, one of these poor whites, a ragged, uns kempt lad of seventeen, ordered by a British officer x co the work of a menial, refused with tbe fierceness of his Saxon ancestry and without wincing took the coward blow with which tyranny bs always, and al ways ine3'ectua!!y, answered the 'poor whites' of this blood. Later, at New Ot leans, this same 'poor white' witb some poor whites like him, held the breach for liberty and later still, as President of Uni ted States, showed the iron deter mination and unconquerable and uncompromising love of liberty, which from 1860 to 1865 set Amer ica on fire with . "thj9 blaze that sprang fiom the soul of Abraham Lincoln, another of the very poor est of the poor white traih of the South, whom this Puritan professor despise?. Aud in that bloody content these pcor whites on both sides, whether front ILinols and India una or Ala bama r.Gu Goorii, from east Tcno nessee, w;ere they rebelled against the SDnte, or we5 Tennessee, where 'Ley icbeUed against the TJnios, snowed at Ishiloh, at Ohica mauga, on a hundred fields of tire and blood, tbe sam? Jspint which they showed at Crecy and Agin court. 1 They were the first to cross the Alleghanies, carrying their lives ia their hand3. The bones of their great caravans whitened tbe great American desert, and they were the first to cross the Rocky Moon tains and see the Pacific ocean spreading before them a's the course of empire building. They carried American civilization from' James town to' the Golden Gate in jast such fashion as our Puritan friend may see them, the can vass-topped wagon, the wdrcen and flixen hair ed children inside, the hounds foK lowing under it, the weaponed man of tbe family riding ia front with his rifle across his pommel. If our Puritan friend knew Ane can history-he won 11 know tk at this means love of liberty that they cannot breathe in sacbart at mosphere as he lives id, a id that they are sacrificing everything to find one where they caus breathe. If he knew them he mighr believe possible what is actual; that in the east Tennessee mountains, where they rebelled against their StaU for the Union as they had gnco be fore rebelled against North Caroli. na, that now when arrested for exercising the liberty of making their corn, peaches and apples into whiskey and brandy, berr fa there didV they ofcen die if they are kept long in confiueaient, just as the monntaia hawk dies when he is caged. 1 .. American histoiy ia a Jar more instructive and broadening study than New England Jrstory, in which this particular piofssor' is pretty thoroughly versed. It may be learned from Americm history that it was one of. these .upoer whites' who in the. angf of the Almo raised around him be'ora he fell a rampart lor the liberty of Texaj made of the bodies cf Santa Anna's peons. And it w.,s this same poor white who sa:.l, "Be sure you are right, then go ahead." If all college professors were only as docile as some of tner.v are, all of them might learn a great del from sufth poor whitt s. THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.
