Where the gold-eyed daisies shine,
Down through the sweet, green pas

Where the sleek, still hr-rd recline,
Linger glad groups of children
All the long summer day,
Making the wildweod echo
With their shouting loud and gay.
Thronging the crowded city,
Weary, and worn, and thin,
Bearing the grievous burden
Of sorrow, perchance of sin r
Too heavy for mirth or laughter,

from upper New York.
,lI wan't a nice little wife,"
said he' "which one of you will
have-me?" j
A mischievous lit tlo miss.
ivkose father v.ras on board, an
chored. at the tar, speke up that
she ranted to tnke her freedom
paper?,1 and knew of no better
way to escape her parents than
to take a husband.
;'Xo time hke the - present,"
said Ourran. ''Here's a rnan who
will marry us;" and he called to
a fellow who was passing. After
a little iaore bandying the Tam
many man ba.le tlje proposing
partners take hold of hands. He
went over a form and pronounced
them man and wile. Just then
the gnifs father came up aii'i
there whs a discovery. Cumin
and little Delia : were ni:;rried
i sure eiioBiii. lor it was .induce
idwitii. iWm Jefl-?rson' Market,
who had performed the cere
mony. A scrimmage ensued, in
wh?cli brcken heads and torn
clothes were conspicuous. The
father hurried., home with his
child, and early next morning
sought the office of Charley Spen
cer, the criminal lawyer. A di
vorce was obtained, and ; ten
years :;g' this girl was married to
another man.
But the passage of time
brought jmany changes. Delia,
the bride of the barge, lost lur
Lusbsmd she had married in 1S77,
and in 1S87. a widow with tw:
little children and a sick father,
found the world by no means a
Tammanv pic-nic. She worked
away uth a .stout heart, how
ever, and kept a tidy home for
her helpless family at the top oi
n new flat house on the east side.
One day bhe got to thinking how
nice it would De if she could set
the care! of such a house. I A
thousand little janitorial duties
the old father could perform, and
she would hire: a stoat servant
tor the hard work. She wrote to
the agent, of the house, stated
her circumstances and wishes,
and signed her whole, name, De
lia Coe Driscoll.
Next day a portly old fellow,
with a Santa Claus expression oi
the face and figuie, climbed to
her sky j parlor. The pretty
little widow colored with expec
tation as he told her that he was
the owner of ?he building.
"You are a widow, Mrs. Dris
coll ?" he said, j . i
. "I lost my husband years a.sro."
- "Was lie tout first llusbnnd ?"
Wbv. i ves certainly t hat
is" the little widow stopped as
the recollection of her chiiuish
trouble came across her memory.
"You may have heard it was
in the papers at the time, and a
great sorrov to xis all. I was mar
ned for fan, not knowing l was
being married, when 1 was only
13. to a Mr. Curi-an.'7

Fcr three j months she coughed

'for if there's anv virture in rag

are selling" them off as fqll blood
ed Jerseys. I always thought
that rag weeds and crab grass
was ordained to follow small
grain and shade the ground from
the summer's sun, but I never
did know where it come lrom un
der certain circumstances. It is
ail an unexplored wilderness to
me. Last year there, wasn't a
rag weed in my com, and a
mighty little grass, and I sowed
wheat upon the land and now
the weeds are about five feet
hijji, all over it, and so thick you
can't walk through 'em, aud 1
want to know where they come
from. About a month ago 1 cut
some of the weeds down and the
grass come up just as rank -arid

and 1 would like to know where

they got there, lu the spring I
graded oiT a little rise in my
I'ront yard and dug down two
feet into the clay and the slate.
and le.it it too poor and hard to
sprout pea?, and in less than a
month the bull nettles and pep
per grr.ss and other weeds had
sprouted up all ovr it, and it
bothers rue to know where they
came from, (iimpson weeds and
opodeldoc, or some other dock,
will just spontaneously grow any
where around a horse lot or cow
pen or an old house in a Held,
and I lon't understand that, for
the birds won't eat the seed nor
carry inem, and they are too
heavy to blow around. There's
young hickory bushes all over niy
woods and nary old one in ;a
quarter of a mile. . If you cut
down an oak forest pines will
come up thick all over it, and if
you cut down a pine forest oaks
will come up, aeorus or no acorns.
A few years ago the bed of the
creek on my farm was changed
and now there's a voung cane-
brake coming up in a new pi ice,
and canes den't blossom nor bear
seed. How did they get there?
Maybe all these things spontane
according .to the new tangled doc
trine of evolution; and if so, then
I reckon I'm an evolutioner, for
I'm obliged to believe that under
certain conditions ot soil ana
atmosphere plants can onginate
themselves without, seed. ' The
other day I locked tip a piece of
cheese where a fly couldn't
find it, but the mites got into
it some way from the inside, and
worked out, so itseems to me if
animals can develop without an
cestors vegetable life can do the
same thing; . ; . .
But I don't believe that a hair
from a black mares tail will turn
into a snake if you put it in the
branch. I don't believe that a
man ever came from a monkey,
for they are both just like what
they were as far back as history
runs, and haven't made much im
provement if any. I am not that
sort of an evoluter. I don't be
lieve that the jumpkin' kangaroo
swum all the -way, from Noah's
ark to the island of Australia, or
that eery -sort of a man des
cended from Shem, Ham and
Japhet; but I do believe that na
ture furnishes her own restorers,
and that all these weeds that fol
low the crops come up without
seed jpst as natural as original
sin follows the human , family,
The first year alter the war a new
kind of clover came lip all over

new carpet, aud nobody ever
found out where it comefrora or

Railroad Movements.
(Richmond Vhig.
There is certainly no abatement
in railroad buildiug in the South,
but, on the contrary, we hear of
new projects in every direction.
The movements which Richmond
is mere or less interested in, one
way or the other, are the Vir
ginia Western and Tennessee
i Midland enterprises, the Lynch
burg and North Carolina road,
the Oxford and Clarksville road
with the, extension to Durham,
and the wo schemes for making
railroad communication lrom
Danville east to deep water, the
AUantc aud Danville and the
Danville and Seaboard.'
By the construction of the
road frorir .CiarksviH'e; ' Ya., to
Oxford, N. C, and the extension
to Durham, Richmond will be
protected in a great degree against
the invasion of that territory by
the Lynchburg and North Caro
lina Railroad, now being con
structed from Lynchburg to Dur
ham, by" way of Hall.'ax Court
house and South Boston, and she
will Jiavean equal 'chance with
Lynchburg at the trade ot that
section. The latter improve
ment is a good thing fot Lynch
burg', while the Clarksville and
Durham connection is necessary
for Richmond. The two together
area tremendous thing for the
growing town ot Durham. Viin
ail her proposed .railroads are
completed 'Durham will be a
railroad locus. She will have a
line southeast to Raleigh and
wet to Greensboro ; a line to
Lynchburg; another by way of
Clarksville to Richmond, and
still another by way of Hender
son to Norfolk. In riilroad con
nections she will be almost as
well off as Atlanta.
D mvilio, the giant of the south
side, is looking on at all these
movements, but is not content
with 'looking on only. She has
practically but one railway out
let to the world, ani is now mov
ing for a competitive line or
possibly two lines direct to the
seaboard. The town has voted a
subscription to the Atlanta ard
Danville Railroad, and has more
recently opened books of sub
scription of the Danville ana
Seaboard Railroad, with a view
to organizing under the charter
and building a road from Dan
ville to Henderson, thus securing
direct communication 'with Nor
folk.
From Roanoke, Virginia, they
are preparing to build a railroad
through Franklin and Uen-y
counties into North Carolina."
All this looks like business. It
indicates industrial iife, activity
and development, and means that
this section, of the South is not
benind'any other section m ma
terial progress. .
The Moiicy StriHRency.
IKichmond Whig.)
It is not now apparent what
will be done before the meeting
oi Congress to relievo the 6triu
gency in the New York money
market, which still continues not
withstanding , the j receipts , of
money from abroad and the sales
of bonds by the government.
The New York Sun suggests that
the government, which has been
coining only two, million dollars
of silver per .month, might; give
some relief to the currency ty
coining four millions, the-' limit
fixed by law," arid issuing stiver
cetificates against "the coin.
The same paper on Sunday
contained interviews with a large
number of merchants, bankers
and other business men. of New
York, as to the monetary condi
tion, and they agreed, with a sin
gle exception, that the scarcity
of circulation wa3 caused by the
locking up of money in the treas
ury. This is the result of the
wrong under which the country
is groaning and which Congress
had the power to relieve, but
tailed of its duty in this respect
the wrong of overtaxation.

From a faeifng of gratitude and a
desire to benefit others, I voluntari
ly make this statement. I have
great reason to be thankful that I
ever heard of D. B. B., as I know
what a tVessinfr it hna foepn "to me. I
have suffered with Urunchitd Catarrh
for a number of years. Six months
ago I was taken "with severe pain in
right ear, whieli In a few riavs bewail
to discharge niatier, with " terrible
and almost unbearable patpluition
and all sorts of noises in my head. In
ten days after the eomuieneeiue. t of
discliaj-pre and pain in my ear I be
fran to grow draf and in six weeks I
was so deaf that I could i;ot hear it
thunder.
I was then compelled to use con
versation tube, and it was often that
I could not hear with the tube. I
then co'utuenced taking B. B. li. and
the running of ny ear ceased run
ning in five weoks, and can now hear
without the tube. My general health
has improved, palpitation ceased,
and feel like a new being, and appra
ciate tho benefit I have received from
B. B. B. (made in Atlanta, Ga..)with
erratitude to- God and tharikfulnws
to the Proprietors for such a medi
cine. I cheerfully recommend it to
all who are a iTiictod with deafness
and catarrh. Try it; preserve in its
