The sweet harp of Whittier was struck with a sombre cadence when those notes were puog. yet their tones are re -echoed Irom the heart ' of every tnan and woman in Christendom. "It might have been" are .words that have been rendered in every conceivable tone of anguish of which humanity is capa ble Gallant beaux and fair maidens, wiih soals wiung and lacerated by bits ter disappointments and blasted hopes have sunglhe discordant strains with heart-broken agony, and old men and women, as they are tottering tecblv but rapidly down the steep hillside ol life, towards the whores ot the mystic be yond, haye sunr the refrain in all the bitterness created by seeing eyery youthful ambition and glorious aspira tion kicked into the darkness oi uever- come-back as a resuir of their owu headstrong folly or obstinate and per verse moral "cussedness ." As we look back into 'he mists ol the past and see where our own headstrong fully or mulish obstinacy has prevented us Irom grasping some golden opportunity, we hgel like kicking ourselves as wevchanl n lachrymose strains 'It might have mm.. I t '. a ' at. been ihese are worus lull oi reu-noi anguish to many an ttherwise happy heart, and they whack us over tne head with a merciless memory that never forgets. There is no eocape Irom the deserved cudgeliugs which they give us, and there will be no escape from them while memory survives or until grim death seals them in oblivion. But with nit the gloom and darkness by which the words are stamped iuto our nearts. men comes in compeusa ting thought that. "It might have - been" worse with many of us. The words do not picuuo everything in the blackness of despair, for as we haye seen the error df our ways and have forsaken them there conies the bright and glad sunshine ot peace and hope to cheer us with IhetUojght tha there is an abyss of sorrow and mislortune into which we haye not yet been cast, and then tho words. "It might have been." become harbingers ot hopo and incen tives to our profoundest and .most rev erent gratitude. The past cannot be retrieved, but by honest action, faithful attention to duty, kindness and cour tesy towards our fellow men, and all the other works which' properly belong to good citizenship, we may make the future as bright as a new pin, and "It might have been" will lose all its pangs.

The Father of Many Ills. Constipation leads to a multitude ol. physical troubles. It is generally the result of carelessness or ind.fference to the simplest rule of health. Eugene McKay, of Brantford. Ont . writes: I had for several years been a suffer er from constipation, had taken a great many different remedies, some of which did me good for a time, but only for a time, then my trouble came back worse than ever. I was induced by a friend, whom Bkanducth's Pilt-S had benefited, to try them. I did so, taking two each night for a week, then one every night for about six week. Since that time I have not experienced the slightest difficulty whatever, . and my bowels move regularly every day. I believe firmly that for sluggishness ol the bowels and biliousness Buaxd betii's Pills are far superior to any other. - - -.',..'".;-.' t - ; The ladies who are to cootri but to the Lawn Party to be given in the City Hall Park on Tuesday evening are re quested to send the articles to tU? QUJ fJilltoa that afternoon. ; - At tho Rocks i ; . We were at the Rocks yesterday and o escaped the iateuse and sweltering heat of the city , We ..had , elegant breezes there and it was one of the moat delightful day we have ever spent on the verge of the salt water. We had. too some ot th finest sport in fishing we have ever. enjoyed. . We were one of a party of three who wont out to the wreck ot the Qery, dine three masted schooner which was driven ashore fa mid channel, on the bar,' last- Winter, and which now lies broadside to the sua. and for two hours the fishing was ndeed fine. A number of lino large sheephead and large black drum were caught, as well as quantities of smaller fry, such as Virginia mullets, pig fish, blacklist!.-'and croakers. As we lelt this norning on the steamer a party, consisting ot Messrs. Heiusberger and ll'wlges. from the city. Coi. Uzzeil. an iusurance adjustor who visits this sec tion every Summer and who never fails to put in an appearance at the Rock for a few days of fine fibbing, and Capt. Mayo, were about to'statt for the same spot, where we are sure they had fine sport to-day. The fishing at the Breakwater ai not good yesterday Irom the fact that the small freshet we had last week was there and bad leaked through the rocks and made the water too fresh, but this has neatly all gone now and the sport there will probably be very tine next week. Yet, notwithstanding the fresh water, we caught acroaker yesterday at the bath house that-lacked but a frac tion of an inch of beiug a lull tout in length. l ite li'ie.ks, as well as other places ou the coast, was inundated with mosqui toes for a few days thfs week, the first time they had them there in three years. But they bad almost entirely disappeared last night. 13 age Ball. Tho second game between the Char lotte and Wilmington base ball clubs was played on the Seaside grounds yes terday afternoon and was one of the most interesting, exciting and hotly contested games ever played in this city- There was a goodly number of spectators present all ot wb?ni entered with zeal into the spirit of the struggle. Both nines were in dead earnest, and there was some remarkably skilful playing by some of the members of each team. As an evidence that the play was sharp on both sides. the score stood 8 each at the close of the ninth inning. The tenth inning was a blank, and the eleventh. inning was won by the Charlotte boys, so that at the close of the game the latter were the winners by a score of 0 to 8. The same teams will play again this afternoon, when, as usual, both . nines will put in their very best work; the home team in order to try and retrieve their lost fortunes, and the Charlotte boys to try and maintain the prestige of success they have so gallantly earn ed. On Wednesday, Thursday and Fri day, the 20th. 21st and 22nd inst, the Henderson nine will be here to cross ht.s with the Wilmington boys. The former have the reputation of being a strong team, and we may expect to see some fine plajing on those occasions. The Canoe Race. Owing to accidents there were but three entries for the cinoe race at Ma sonboro Sound yesterday af.ernoon. These were the Turn Yum. Capt. K; M. Murchison. Jr , Lizzie. Capt. Reid Williams and tho Surprise. Capt. Claj- tnn Giles.

A friend at Point Caswell sends us some items from his section which notwithstanding the fact that his letter has been delayed in reaching us, are still iresh and interesting. From him we learn that the crops to that section of the country bordering on Point Caswell and Moore's Creek are very fine and promising. They have bad lots of rain and the greatest fear now is dry weather. Generally, that section is a peaceful, law-abiding country, but occasionally an evil-doer comes to the front.
