I will say 1 hd a lavjrite in that group. I do not fav she wss the f;dre-t. riehiyt or mo.d. refined, yet I had and felt an interest lor i;er l icir lor none of the others, simply for the reason that she always seemed to sympa thize with me v.!en I wouhl make some awkward ilnnder. I never saw her point her finger at mo and giggle when I ws called up to de claim and would l-e so Itashful that my whole frame would shako as though I had an aue. I can never write or read of the noble women of North Carolin.i, but my mind is cen tered upon another, the deare-f, to pie, of all womankind, though the was not brought up in the sur roundings of a city, imr in an allbi-y-nt home, and could not dress ac cording to modern style. Hut she yore tho old-time cap and round spectacles, ami aprons of her own make. Mie knit my socks with her own fingers, seated by tho broad fire-place, by tho liht of a tallow candle of her own make. Her face was crossed with many a wrink le; her slioul b rs were stooped with the burdens of a long life, yet how, oh! how soft and gentle that hand when we were eiek, and such a voice to siHjthe pain! There was no one that could fill up a room with so much peace, purity and liht. Tli ti one tr.a i,Lj ii.ifn ' ! Though many years have passed since she fell asleep in Jesus, yet I feel at times that gentta hand laid lightly upon my brow and hear her .-ofr, earnest prayer to God in behalf of her way -ward boy!

My father rd. lies in the sulie county, and those of my brothers ni.d sisters thathave died, except one, aro likewise buried i i Surry county, and tho.-j that arc living are still there. Then, Mr. Ediror, are you snrpri-ed when I toil yii tl at tho Yadkin Vai.i.ky Xkws is a welcome visitor to me Please pardon the dhrrchsiori, and I will return to Mount A irv. 1 told you in my lat letter that us boys were' under the as-istant, Mr. Summers. AVell, he was a nice, genteel young mau.-nud took great pains in trying to advance his stti tlcnt'. Hut all of us b boys had a kind of vindictive feeling toward him. simply because he v:.s permit ted the privilege of ";;;;Hat.ti:i" the ?c!iool girls and we were not. He could have one on each kgo, but we were forbidden bv the school dh-cip-lit.e to gallant" or have any cor respondence whatever with the girls. Wo' imagined ourselves as compe tent to take CAre of them as Mr. Summers-, or Mi. anybody else, so far as that was concerned. For this grievance, we took spite out on Mr. Summers, nnd allowed no opportunity to pass without vex ing him to the fullest extent of" our wits. Well, ho was not only a good educator, but nl.-o a good jumper. He cha!!enred the Fchool to jump against him We were to mark our bet jump, and when he came from dinner, with apparently little effort he wouhl jump just a few inches over. Alter a while wo gave it up. The school-house of Mount Airy then stood in the sulurhs of town on an "eminence and was surrounded by a most beautiful grove of young oaks, which nor only made a beau tiful play ground for us boys, but also i pleasant shade for the vil lagers' cows. W 11. we put our heads together (when we found we culd not beat our teacher at jump ing) to play a trick on him. So. one day we dug a pit in the ground, about a foot square and one or two feet deep. We filled the hole nearly full of the softest mud we could find, placed small and nearly rotten sticks over the top, then covered the sticks with dirt and made the place look very natural, making our mark a few inches le hind tiie pit. Mr. Summers came up with his u-ual smiiv.-, viewed our jump, and, as nsn.nL jumped ! Into the pit he went aui fell one of the hardest falls, perhaps, he ever got. He was the most lie-smeared man 1 ever saw, and we got half an hour more plav time ! v. n.l deserved a w hipning. O. J. HODGES. It Should lie In Kvery lion T , O 1 ..!.. V CI .. . . .

SEXD FREE SILVER TO TSE REAR New Yorlj, New Jersej-aml New England Congressmen SSpcak ' Out in Plain Iansuae. From the Atlanta Journal. "Wasiiinctox, January 10. The object of the democracy in c-nxorinjr tire next presidental contest, is to win. . -. .Principle is better than success ; but success in a single line of policy is better than failure in tho isiticr gun process. To witi the presidential election, we must not only carry the srates that we-have l-e- n ace is'.med to carry but we must defeat the enemy in the doubtful states. How can we do it i The answer comes from every democratic con gress fharv from these states. "Make tariff leforni the issue."' j I have put three questions to democratic representatives who re flect the sentiment of the party In Cjoiinocticur, - Massachusetts, New Jersey, Xew Hampshire and "X'ew York": . , il "What should le. the issues presented in the next democratic piatforni f 'j. "What prominence should be given to tariff reform f "What effect would the inser tion of a free silver plank have in tlie doubtful states f' Mr. Crosby,' of Massachusetts : "TafilT retorm should be, by -all means, the paramount issue, and tin mot prominent features of the tariff reform should bo towards giving free raw materials. "It is not only best to ignore free silver; bu we should declare for a son-.d eutret'cy and against free silver. j "it the party docs this, we ptand a good chance of carrying Massa chusetts. To declare for free silver would not only lose Massachusetts but would lose every eastern and northern state, not excepting Nov Jersey. The south has not the selfish motive of the west and should be as much in fav-r of a second currency as the. east." Mr Stephens, of Massachusetts : "Tariff ref-;rm should be tiie main issue in tho next campaign". To crivensfr-'e raw material i about the m.bt important phase of tar ill reform. ' "To put a free silver plank in. the irext national democratic, platform would cause us. to lose Massachu setts and make all Xew England doubtful. To declare against free silver would help wonderfully throughout Xew England and chan go Massachusetts frm repub lican, to the doubtful column. '" Mr. O'Xeil, of Massachusetts: ' --'Make tho issue on the tariff and nothing elt-e. "To put in free silver would lose Xew York. It is m-ed!e?s to say thiit it would lose all Xew England. ; "Say nothing about free silver, and we can carry even Massachu setts and win the election beyond a doubt." ' Mr. Cotilidge. of Massachusetts : "The light should be made on the tariff. Insert a free silver plank and we would lose every Xew England state. Omit free silver and we will carry Massachusetts and every other doubtful Xew England and north ern stat?. "Why, on a free 'silver platform, nly ono democratic, congressman from Mi sachuselts could bore-elected O'Neil, whose distiict is dem ocratic two to one."
