"Why should they have been born in London if they hadn't been meant to be there?"

After all, her place was. her own, though it was only di vided from Mrs. 'Benson's by a lath-and-plaster partition and a wooden paling.

And again I feel the pressure of her slen der little hand, As we used to talk together of the future we hr.d planned When I should be a poet, with nothing else to do ,But write the tender verses that she set the music to. When we should live together in a cozy little cot Hid in a net of roses, with a fairy garden stiot, Where the vines were ever fruited, and the weather ever fine, And the birds were ever singing for that old sweetheart of mine. When I should be her lover forever and a day, And she my faithful sweetheart till the golden hair was gray, , And we should be so happy that when either's lips were dumb They would not smile in heaven till the other's kiss had come. ing Mrs. Benson in a state of min gled disgust and astonishment. "If she does, I won't have any thing more to do with her," she said to herself, as she went in to get her husband's tea. What was her amazement, as she stood at her cottage door a day or two afterwards, to see Mrs. ancients downwards, but perhaps village children look upon it with more wonder than any other race of beings. This little boy seemed to them like a creature of another sphere. "Come in, Polly," cried Mrs. Flint ; and hearing her mother's voice, the child summoned up courage and ran past the stranger hiding her face in a fresh access ot shyness as soon as she got in side. Jo watched her with interest as she followed her mother s steps wherever she went, but he did not address any further remarks to her, seeming to' look upon her as too small for sensible conversa tion. "What does she do that for? he asked, when they were seated round the tea-table, and he saw Polly's fat hand still jealously clinging to her mother's gown. "Because she loves me," said Mrs. Flint tondly; "don t you Polly?" Polly nodded solemnly, but made no other reply. "Don't you love rour mother?' asked Mrs. Flint. "I don t ave a mother I said Jo. "Who do you live with then?' "Well, I live with myself most Mrs. Flint did not speak but there was a sad expression on her face that made the boy un- he did 'Let me do it," he cried ea gerly, as soon as she had finished.

THE LATE W. W. MCD1ARMID. At the meeting of the North Carolina Press Association in June the bright young editor of the Biblical Kecorder, Mr. J. W. Bailey, who was the historian "xif the meeting, paid a tribute to the memory of Mr. W. McDiar inid, late editor of the Robesonit an. As soon as we saw the press dispatches announcing the address we wrote to Mr. Bailey requesting that a copy be sent us for publica tion. He replied that he was un able to do so as the only copy of lis address had been left with the secretary of the Association to be printed in the minutes. A copy of the minutes was received from Secretary Sherill last week and the tribute is given below, togeth er with the resolutions by the As sociation. Mr. Bailey said : Wo look about us and miss a j form for which we long ; we, listen in vain for the sound of a voice that is still. That kindly pres ence is gone f orevever from ub ; that jovial eye no more shall spar kle here; that ringing laughter, which made our meetings musical and drove a thousand cares away, shall be heard no more among men forever; the noble, lovely spirit of McDiarmid is departed hence.

"I don't see much good in it," said Mrs. Benson. "I never did hold to new-fangled ways." If Mrs. Benson had made this remark less frequently, it might have been received with more at tention by her neighbors; but as it seemed to bo inevitable, no matter what proposition met her ear, it had ceased to be much re garded. 'I don't sre why we should take n lodgers," said Mrs. Benson, af er a da use, during which she ireadod her needle and looked nit a fresh hole in the sock she was mending. "There's no reason for it, that I can see. We ain' a watering-place." "There's something in that," said Mrs. Flint thoughtfully; "but, then, see how well Mrs. West did with those artist gentle men that stopped there lat summer." 'Artist gentlemen!" cried Mrs. Benson in great scorn. "I don t mean to say as she didnf ; but if you think that London street boys is artist gentlemen, you'll find yourself pretty well mista ken, that's all I can ?ay. Just you get. one or two of them little ragamuffins playing t h;ir antics round your house, and you 11 see as they are rather different from gentlemen as goes out early in the morning with a bit of sandwich in their pockets, and never comes back till it's dark.'

Sure enough the directors of the The Croatans Greatly Excited. Laurinhurg Exchange.. About three miles from Pem broke, in Robeson county, lives Belle Oxendine with her husband, Wiley. Until quite recently, Belle has been in no wise noted, except for a deeply pious and re ligious nature. Since Sunday night, the 15th inst., though, her deeds, her sayings and the myste rious power, with which she seems to be invested, have created the wildest kind of excitement among the Croatan nat ives of the commu nity in which she lives. Great crowds of people are flocking to see her, from every direction, and for miles around the inhabitants are filled with wonder. For some time she has been deeply grieved on account of her husband's indifference to religions matters aud ins perverseness was a subject of greatest concern to her. About a week previous to the 15th it was noticed that she was, in some manner, strangely affected, but not until Sunday night did she give signs of the strange and supernatural power that had come upon her. She told her husband and family that she had just visited both hell aud heaven, in spirit, and that God had bid her do some strange things to prove the truth of what she said. To show her power, she clenched her fists and the strong est men were unable to open them, nor could they bend her arms After this she became unusually quiet until Wednesday evening, when she told her husband that God had commanded her to prove that fire could not burn her. Building a lightwood fire she stood over it, with both bare feet in the blaze, the flames going all over and around her without even scorching her clothes or doing her the least, harm. Then she pulled a stick of burning wood from the fire and lay down, placing her head in the flames and, greatly to the amazement of all around, her head was not even singed . Afterwards, she sat on the fire with the same remarkable result. The woman's strange actions, her talk about the unknown world and the mysterious power she possesses, is a subject of the greatest wonder aud there is no end to the consternation with which each person, who hears the strange story is filled. Several credible witnesses vouch for the truth of this statement and the Exchange reporter has it from the lips of a perfectly reliable white man, who has seen this wo man of such strange and myste rious power. Qaffs on Prisoners. A new torture for every seri ous indignity is a torture lias been invented by the Russell "city administration of Wilmington. The public know that the Russell wing of the Republican party cap tured the city government in the last, city election, against the bet ter element of the Republicans and the Democrats. The gang has procured a lot of iron or spurs to put on the city prisoners, and on Friday last the newseherde was put into effeet. The. negroes of course remonstrated seriously, but it was ordered by "the pow ers" to bo done;,f.nd it was done. Said one of 'the .prisoners: "if we were thieves or criminals, it would be right, but wo are only in here for being drunk or disor derly." Capt. Bryant toi them it was none of his?doinrs, as ho was act- ing on orders. "I was opposed to using these spurs," said he, "aud came very nearly being dis charged on account of it." One of the prisoners, with a voice trembling with emotion. said: "And this is .what we "get for voting the Rtpubliean ticket I'm a fool if ever I do it again." City Clerk and Treasurer F. B. Rice, who was looking on, replied: "It is , not the Republican party that is putting these gaffs on you, but the Russell gang. If I were you fellows I would refuse to work with those things on." The prisoners buckled the gaffs on, and with an injured air obe diently got into the carts and went out to work on the streets, says the Messenger. The colored people are highly indignant over the action of the city authorities, and it does look a little hard that gaffs should be put on prisoners -guilty of a mis demeanor only, unless they have shown a disposition to escape, or make themselves otherwise troublesome.
