When in the radiant June, We gathered the roses, soon Into my heart the breath Of their infinite sweetness came. Now, my hopes are like them Withered, too, but the death Of the roses of memory Leave no sweetness 'behind for me. THE FARMER. The writer thinks, the poet sing's, The craftsmen fashion wondrous things, The doctor heals, the lawyer pleads, The miner follows the precious leads, Bttt this or that, what'er befall, The "Farmer he must feed them all. The merchant he may buy and sell, The teacher do his duty well, Rut men may toil through busy days Or men may stroll through pleasant ways From king to beggar, what'er befall, The Farmer he must feed them all. The farmer's trade is one of worth, He's partner with the sky and earth, He's partner with the sun and rain, And no man loses for his gain, Ami men may rise and men may fall, Bat the Farmer he must feedihem all. The farmer dares his mind to speak, He has no gift or place to seek, To no man living need he bow ; The man who walks behind the plow Is his own master, what'er befall, And king or beggar he feeds us all. SOME BAY OF II AYS. NORA PERRY (MASSACHUSETTS, I&4I.) Some day, some day of days, thread ing the street, With idle, heedless ipace, Unlooking for such grace, I shall behold your face ! Some day, some day of days, thus may we meet. Perchance the sun may shine from skies of May, Or winter's icy chill Touch whitely vale and hill ; What matter? I shall thrill Through every vein with summer on that day. Once more life's perfect youth will all come back, And for a moment there I shall stand fresh and fair And drop the garment, care ; Once more my pefrfect youth shall nothing lack. I shut, my eyes now, thinking how t'will 1 oe. How face to face, each soul Will slip its long control, Forget the damsel dole Of dreary fate's dark, separating sea. And glance to glance, and hand to hand in greeting. The past with all its fears, Its silence and its tears. Its lonely, yearning years, Shall vanish in the moment of that meeting. An Agnostic's Creed. To me, the most wonderful thing in the world is thought the impal pable, the invincible, the noiseless ; the something that can neither be seen, nor touched, nor heard, and yet it is the greatest force so far as we know. All these questions are beyond ray mind; so I'm willing to wait. I feel like a passenger ' on a ship, unacquainted with the captain or any of the officers, without know ing the port the ship left, and without havintr the slightest idea as to the harbor to -which it is going. If it goes down in mill ocean I shall not be surprised. It it lands on tairer shores, bluer skies, I shall be rejoiced. But whatever it does. I intend to do my best to have a pleasant voyage, and get along as well as I can with the other passengers. Robert G. Ingersoll. A New Platform. Sometimes there is a good deal of common sense spoken in jest. At the late Democratic County Con vention in Edgecome county, Dr. C. L. Killehrew, as we learn irorh the Southerner, resolved himsell into a committee ot one on platlorm and sub mitted the following: "Platlorm of the unterrified Demo cracy of Edgecombe county. That each farmer raise his own supplies of corn, meat and hay. That there is no such thing as over production, and that every farmer bring some product to sell everv time he comes to town, or he must not be allowed to carry any thing back. Cotton and tobacco must be a secondary consideration and only planted as a surplus crop, believing that by adopting this plan every farmer will put himself in a position to have some voice in pricing his commodities, each man running his own sub-treasury, getting the benefit of unlimited silver coinage when it comes." The Southerner remarks that this platform would would have been unanimously adopted if it had been submitted to a vote. It may be said that while there is not much politics in it there is lots of sense. Happy Homes. Thousands of sad and desolate homes have been made happy by use of "Rose Buds," which have proven absolute cure for ithe following diseases and their distressng symptons: Ulceration, con eeston and falling of the womb, ovar ian tumors, dropsy of the womb, sup pressed menstruation, rupture at child birth, or any complaint originating in diseases ot the reprodnctive organs ; whether from contagious diseases here ditary, tight lacing, overwork, excesses or miscarriages. One lady writes us that after suffering for ten years with leucorrheaor whites, that one applica- tionentirely cured her, and further more, she suffers no more during the menstrual period. It is a wonderful regulator. "Rose Buds" are a simple and harmless preparation, but wonder- ful in effect. The patient can apply it ; herself. No doctors' examination ne cessary, to winch all modest women, especially young unmarried ladies se riously object. From the first applica tion you will feel like a new woman.

She has done work in that Institution as student and teacher. The Board assigned to President Charles D. Mclver the chair of the Science, Art and History of Teach ing, and Professor Edwin A. Alder man has the chair of History and English Literature. The Board postponed action in re gard to the chair of Stenography, Typewriting and Telegraphy until their next meeting, about the first of July. At that meeting there will, also, be selected a lady to take charge ot the dormitory building and manage the boarding department. The Board was well pleased with the progress of the buildings and de rided to ooen the Institution on the 28th of September of this year Greensboro Patriot. Keatl it Again. The platform adopted by the Dem ocratic Convention, at Raleigh, de mands the free and unlimited coinage of silver and an increase of the cur rency to $50 per capita of the popu lation of the Lmted states, which about twice the present per capita. Wilmington Star. is Our contemporrry is mistaken about the per capita business, and as others are laboring under the same misapprehension it is well to refer to the matter. The demand of the olatform upon this point is that the government substitute legal tender Treasury notes lor national bank notes, "issued in sufficient volume to dn the hnsiness of the country on cash system, regulating the amount needed on a per capita basis as the business interests ot the country ex pand."

In other words, they are Southern Democratic, and not stnedy Ocala demands. The undemocratic demands of the Ocala series, which good Democrats fight, are those for the Sub-Treasury scheme and government ownership of railroads and telegraphs ; and those were not included in the North Caro lina and Georgia platforms.

The Free Pi ess says that about a dozen Third party men heki a meet ing in Kinston last Saturday and decided that they would .put out a full county ticket, for which purpose they will hold a county convention on June 1 ith. Among the Democratic Congress- j men renominated, are Geary and I Caminetti, of California ; Springer, I Busey, and Williams, of Illinois ; I j Holman, Bretz. Brown, and Cooper, j Indianna ; Hayes, of Iowa ; Tarsney, j of Missouri ; Williams, of North Car olina, and Layton, ot Ohio. A sensation was created in Kansas when ex-Congressman Kelley left the Republican party to join the People's party. Now ex -Congressman Phil lips has followed Lis example Evi dently these old Republicans leaders think the People's party in Kansas is very much alive. Representative Busev, ot Illinois, who defeated Joseph G. Cannon two years ago, and found the task easy because of Cannon's disgusting speech in the Fifty-first Congress, recently wrote a letter to h:s constituents tel ling them that he would not run again. But they went right ahead and renominated him, and he may have to defeat Cannon for the second time. Gov. Hogg, of Texas, is stumping the State in a frantic effort to secure another nomination which would, of course, be equivalent to a second term. But he is having a hard time. The usual thing in Texas is to give a Governor a second term : but Gov. Hogg's course has raised up many enemies against him.

At a joint debate in Texas between a Democrat and an Allianceman, the Democrat broke his glasses. The Allianceman offered his. The Dem- ocrat tried them, and handed them back with the remark: "They are not Democratic enough for me ; they are too murky, and 1 adrise you to sweep the cobwebs out of your brain, ! wipe off your glasses, and be a Dem chief dislike, she has ocrat." The reporter says : "Then ! followed applause that rent the air for five minutes." Ex-Conirressman Barksdale, of ... . . . , has rued twice to become a Democratx candidate on the Ocala platform ol the Farmers' Alliance, and has failed both times, announces that he has had enough. Gen Hooker beat him the first time, when Mr. Barksdale tried to go to the House of Representatives, and Senator George beat him when he tried to iro to the Senate. Mr. Barks- T ... dale has refused to accept a nomina tion for Congress from the Alliance people against the Democracy, and says he will stand by the party of which he has been a member all his life. The Congressional friends of Sen ator Hill express great annoyance at the repeated statements that the New York delegation to the Democratic National Convention contemplates abandoninc Senator Hill after a bal lot or two. and casting the votes for some other candidates. Represen tative Bourke Cockran strongly re sents the intimation that the Tamma ny delegates are not loyal to Senator Hill, and he. as well as Gen. Siocum, asserts that Hill :s m the iigbt to 1 the finish ; that not one of the seventy-two delegates will abandon him, and that if the New York candidate is to be'defeated he will go down with the seventy-two votes of the Empire State loyal to him to the last, Wash ington Post.

While it will remain as true and lfcyal to Alliance organization and its principles as it has ever been, it can not and will not be circumscribed in its advocacy of the methods which only can bring relief to our suffering people, and which have been so overwhelm ingly indorsed by them. In thus severing its official connec tion with the State Alliance it in no measure abates its allegiance to the principles of our Order, and will ever stand ready willing toextend its full and hearty co-operation to all the officers and the brotherhood for pro moting and maintaining the principles which we have espoused.

Senator Hoar Write in the .Juno Forum on the "Reason for Republican Control," Going Over the Whole Ground That will be Contested During the Campaign. In his ai tide on the "Reasons for Republican Control" an article out lining the proper policy for the Presidential campaign Senator Geo. F. Hoar, who stands for the best tradi-' tions and most vigorous policy of . the Republican party, gives em phasis to the renewed sectionalism, as he is pleased to call it, of the South ern Democrats, as shown in the action of the majority in the present Con gress. He writes in the June Fourm : "Take the Democracy of the South to-day. They are a sectional party, based on sectional opinions, seeking ascendency. They believe that you, and those who think with you, and those who are engaged in like employ ments with yours, are monopol:sts and Ll T . 1 . 1 . 1 . roooers. 10 inem tire aesire to Keep the currency sound and to keep finan cial policy of the United States in harmony with the other nations of the civilized worid, is but a desire of creditors and oppressors to impose an undue burden upon the necks of their debtors, and to make iil-gotfen gains by extortion from the laboring men of the South and West. They desire in every particular to narrow the just authority of the United States to limit the jurisdiction of its courts, to confine its liyislation within narrow bounds, and to reassert and revive the heresy of State rights. The man whom in their hearts they most applaud is the man who can accom plish the overthrow of suffrage in the North as they have accomplished it in the South. The power which they have usurped, though a minority in their own section, they will gladly extend by a like usurpation over the entire country. And to accomplish that end they are prepared to assume any mask or disguise which they think needful to delude the straightforward simplicity of the people of North." This is how Northern Republicans regard you, white men of the South ? Can any be found willing to do any thing that will possibly help keep, such a party in power. In North Caro lina a vote for any Third party nominee means simply this and can accomplish nothing else. They Can Orgunixe in 24 Hours. The absence of a Republican State ticket will, of course, weaken the Re publican electoral ticket. They know this but they hope to overbalance this loss by the weakening of the Democratic electoral ticket which will come from a Third party elec toral ticket. The same causes that led to the great uprising in the State to keep the St. Louis platform from being placed in the Democratic State platform will work to bring down the I Third party electoral vote to the lowest notch. No electoral ticket, running on a platform that the Omaha convention will formulate on the 4th of July, can poll any considerable vote in North Carolina. It could, however, poll enough to defeat the Democratic electoral ticket in Jhe State and to elect the Republican electoral ticket if the Republican party were in any sort of organization.
