I then showed her- Santa

I walked and
! walked and walked, and sang all my
little songs, and patted heron the ;
back as I marched to my music, I
twirled silver dollars on the marblt!
top table. I got the fiddle, and let
her saw on it with the bow. I hunted
up the dolls, nursed the cat, and
tickled th co's feot as he lay asleep
on the rug; and 60 by shifting ihe
scenes, I kept her little mind em
ployed until the eyelids began to
droop, and wilbt sob and a sigh she
went to sleep. It was a struggle
against time, and the mother soon
after I had whipped the fight.
They all came, and they came a
ialkir,g. and were so eoiry I had
missed it, for it was a fine wedding

feast, and ererybody was so nice, and
the young folks were just lovely, and
the old folks were splendid, and the
bride was af picture, and her maids
were charming, and the music was
exquisite, and the presents were per
fectly magnificent and other adjec
tives, adverbs, interjections and ex
cUinaticns too. tedious to mention:
"Oh 50;: ought to have been there !
You d. n't, know what you have

wasn't an ' oid fashioned
after all, for "the bride and

left that goodly company

about 1 1 o'clock, came to town, and
took the traia jfor Florida flipped
awaj like they were ashamed of the
business! They might have stayed
a diy or two, anyhow, and had an in.
fare at the groom's mother's, like we
ue to do in ihe good old times.
Ttivy might have ttiycd a few day
to -iinfort the poor mother, who has !

is no km lo her, and never did any

A STATUE OF JOIIA H'ESLTBT
London, Msrch 2. To-day bain'g
the one" hundredth aniversity of the
death of John Wesley, the great tho
ologian and founder of Methodism a
statue erected to his honor was un
veiled in the presence of a large con
course of people in front of the Cit
Road Chapel, the keorlqaarters of the
JSVesleyans. Ret. Frederic WiRiRtn
Farrar, Archdtacon of Westminster,
took part iu the cererronies attending
the unyeilirig of the statue, and after,
ward, with Sir Robert N. Fowler,
one pf the members of Parliament
for London City, addressed a meet
ing in the City Road Chapel, extoll
ing the virtues of Wcslcj.,
The Archdeacon deliveied a. long
and eloquent eulogy of John Wesley,
during" lh coins of w'jich he said

Here is an ar.noucemont that may
effect North Carolina:
English society, according to the
London St'tr, has decided that the
word " lady " is to be expunged from
its lexicon of polite conversation, and
the good old fashion ' woman" is to
take its place.
Good. There is no lady in tl.o
Bible. We have all along preferred
an(i Uave generally written woman.
The word gentleman will have to be
discarded iu the South. The ot) er
day a little black fellow broi.ght a

house by a little girl pl3inginthe
