POETRY.
THE YOUNG "WIDOW.
SIR EDWIN ARNOLD.
She is modest, but nqt bashful
Free and easy, but not bold,
; Like.an apple, ripe and mellow-
Not too young and not too oia;
Half inviting, half repulsing
Now advaneine. and now shy;
There is mischief in her dimple, .
There is danger in her eye.
See has studied human nature
She is .schooled in her arts:
She has taken her diploma
As a mistress of all hearts;
She can tell the very moment
When to sieli, and when to smile;
Oh, a maid is sometimes charming;
But a widow all the while.
Are you sad? How very serious
Will her handsome face become 1
Are you angry? She is wretched,
Lonely, friendless, teanui, aumo:
Are you mirthful ? How her laughter,
Sil er-sounding, will ring out:
She can lure, and catch, and play you
As the angler does the trout.
Ye olu bachelors of forty
Who have grown so bald and wise,
Young Americans of twenty
With the love-look in your eves,
You may practice all the lessons
. ... ,1 r ti
Taught by Cupid since me lau,
But 1 knoww a little widow
Who can win and fool you all.

to: Air. Kobertson said this was one
j of the- great question before the
! Leei-lature and then addressed mm-
self to the objections which yesterday
were made to the bill. He said the
lien i law was the foster child of the
inortea&re ' svstem. He said that
under the lien law the farmer had
paid from 10 to 50 per cent more

than he would have paid in cash. The !
right to waiye the homestead with-i
out the wife's signature was the valu
able provision of the bill. Any man,
be he drunkard, rascal or what not,
can get his wife to sign a mortgage.
Outstanding mortgages are safe under
this bill. There is no politicsjn the
bill, though demagogues may try to
drag it in. That frightens no think
ing man.
Mr. Jones, who is one of the ablest
men in the House, presented his case
with marked force and grace and was
given close attention by the House
and the scores of people in the lobbies.
ie said he had as a lawyer seen peo
ple take the homestead on other
men's property. This astounding
rascality he described and said all
awyers had seen cases of the kind.
He said that he would have perferred
a stronger bill, but that this was a com
promise bill prepared by the Com
mittee on the Judiciary.
Mr. Long said he asked leave to
withdraw his amendments as to the
date of the election, as he had dis
covered that the election must; under
the constitution, be had at the next I
general election.
Several other speeches were made
all brief. Mr. Fuller, of Randolph,
"avoring the amendment to except
the wife.
Mr. Anderson moved to table the
entire bill. This was lost, 22 to 70.
The bill was then made the special
order for next Tuesday at 1 1 o'clock,
on motion of Mr. Adams. .
The House then took up the bill,
which was discussed at length yester
day, to allow quite a number of coun
ties until May 1st to settle State taxes.
There was some discussion, and on
motion ofMr. Watson, of Forsyth, the
bill was tabled. ,

Raleigh, N. C. Feb. 9. The
lomt committe of the senate and
house on railroads met again Yester
day evening, and after three hours of
discussion decided, by a vote of 17 to
6, to reject the proposition as em
braced in the bill of Mr. Spruill.
1 he sub committee was instructed
to have an interview today with
Messrs. Elliott and Walters, of the
Wilmington and Weldon company,
for th purpose of ascertaining if they
will make another proposition of
compromise.
It is hot believed that the railroad
company will make a second propo
sition, -j .; .
If this course is taken the whole
controversy will be relegated to the
courts and litigation will begin and
end in the Supreme Court of the

several years unless the suit when put
