D., read at the , opening of the Columbian Exposition today. S;tll y Columbus watched tlie nascent moon Drown in the Olooiny Ocean's western deeps, Strange birds that day had lluttered in the sails, ; And strange flowers floated 'round the wandering keel. And yet no land. And now, when thro' the dark The h'anta .Maria leaped before the gale And angry billows tossed the caravels As to destruction. Gomez Kasconcame With Captain l'iuzou thro the fretted seas, And to tbe Admiral brought a parchment scroll, ; Saying, " (rood Master, read this writing here : An earnest prayer it is from all on board. 1 The crew would fain turn back in utter ' fear. ! No longer to the Pole the compass points, j Into the zenith creeps the Northern Star, i Vou saw but yester eve an albatross ; Drop dead on deck benea'h the flying 1 scud. The devil's wind blows madly from the east, Into the land of Nowhere, ami the sea i Keeps sucking us adown the inaelstonn's ! maw. I Francisco says the edge of earth is near, ! And oil to Erebus we slide unhelined. Last Sunday nittht Diego saw a witch Dragging the Nina by her forechains west, And wildly daucing on a dolphin's back; j And as she danced, the brightest star in heaven , Slip) e I from its leash and sprang into the i sea ! hike Lucifer, and left a trail of blood. 1 I pray thee, Master, turn again to Spain, j Obedient to the omens, or, perchance, j The terror-stricken crew, to escape thvir j doom, i miitiii.- 'mil" " Comez llascon, peace!" Exclaimed the Admiral; " thou hast said enough. Now. prithee, leave me. 1 would be alone." Then eagerly Columbus sought a sign In sea and sky and in his lonely heart, And found, instead of presages of hope, The black and ominous portents of despair. The w ild winds roared around hint and he heard Shrill voices crv, "lteturn! Heturn! He turn:" lie thought of Cenoa and dreanjs of youth, ljis father's warnings and his mother's prayers, Confiding lleatriz and the prattling babe. The life and mirth and warmth of old Cas tile, Tho tempting comfort of the peaceful land, And sad winds moaned, "lteturn! lteturn! Keturn! As thus he inured he paced the after deck And gazed upon the luminous waves astern. Strange life was in the phosphorescent foam. i And thro' the goblin glow there came and went, Like elfin shadows on an opal sea, Frophetic pictures of the land he sought. He saw the end of his victorious quest; He saw ablaze on Isabella's breast The gorgeous Antillean jewels rest. The islands of the West. He saw invading Plenty dispossess Old Poverty, the land wtl bounty bless, And through the wailing caverns of. dis tress Walk btar-eyed Happiness. i He saw the L'ourbon and Braganza prone ! For ancient error tardv to atone, living me piumiereu people uacn men own And flying from the throne. He saw an empire radiant as the day. Harnessed to law, but under Freedom's sway, Proudly arise, resplendent in array, To show the world the way. He saw celestial peace in mortal guise, And, tilled with hope and thrilled with high emprise, Lifting'its IraiKpiiPforehead to the skaeSi -V Vast republic riso. He saw beyond the hills of golden oorn, lleyond the curve of Autumn's opulent horn. Ceres and Flora laughingly adorn The husom of tho morn. He saw a clotli of gold across the gloom, An aiabesijue from Evolution's loom, And from the barren prairies' driven spume Imperial cities bloom. He saw an iron dragon dashing forth On pathways east and west and south and north. I'niting fondly in beneficent girth ltemotest ends of earth. ' lie saw the lightning run an elfin ra.ce.. Where trade, and love, and pleasure in terlace, And seyered friends in Ariel's embrace Cuniuiuning faca to fftoe, I He saw helief through deadly dungeons grope; Foes turn to brothers, black despair to hope. And cannon rust along the grass-grown slope. And rot the gallows rope. lie saw the babes on Labor's cottage floor, The bright walls hung with luxury more and more, And Comtort, radiant with abounding store, Wave welcome at the door. He saw the myriad spindles flutter round; 1 he myriad null wheels snake the ground; The myriad homes where jocund tqy (a foaml, And love is throned and crowned- lie saw exalted Jgnoranco under ban, Though panoplied in forco since time began. And Science, consecrated, load tho van, '1 he Providence of man. The pictures came and paled and passed away, And then the Admiral turned as from a trance. His lion face aglow, his luminous eyes Lit with mysterious fire from hidden suns: " Now, Martin, to thv waiting helm again! Haste to Pinta! Fill her sagging sails, For on my soul hath dawned a wondrous sight. Lo! thro' this segment of the watery world Co rose a hemisphere of glorious life T ' V realm of golden grain and fragrant; fruits, : ' ' And men and women yise and masterful, Who lwelt at peace in rural cottages And splendid cities bursting into gloom Croat lotus blossoms on a flowery sea.

Marion Harland, iu Her Usually Fascinating and Attractive Way, Tells us How to go About It Read What She Says, and Study it Care fully. Marion Harland has this chosing a wife : to say on Mrs. Hannah Moore tells us in a dreary three-volume tale how Coelebs stuffiest of pen-and-ink prigs chose a v.'ife. Who in modern and real life imi tates his example ? Fortune hunters seek " with smiles and with soap" the probable possessors of plethoric purses ; the returned mis sionary, on a brief furlough, consults the brethren, and presumably the Lord, in the selection of a fellow amor bearer with devout inclinations and a stout constitution ; quadruply bereaved widowers, wider awake than bachelors to a sense of the uncertainty of the time and earthly things, make haste to be wise (or foolish) and set forth marriage feasts with funeral meats still luke-warm. These are economic and prudential contracts, legal enough, but wanting in all else that makes the joining to gether in wedlock of man and woman an honorable marriage in the sight of Heaven. Love that sanctifies, faith that ele vates, the hope that is a well-spring of joy and comfort in heart and home, are an omnipotent three that bring down to earth the kingdom of Heaven, But it cometh not with observation. Women oftener choose husbands than men wives, paradoxical though the statement may sound. The over tures of courtship, however impetuous, give them the advantage in perspective in judging of suitors' merits. Once in a generation Juliet meets Romeo fully half way perhaps a little over but the full tide runs in the direction of man's approach and woman's waiting. Women are enticed, argued, led by cunningly devised stages into love. Men "fall" in how easily and fatally, Addison narrates in his immortal list of "killed and wounded." "T. S. killed by Zelinda's scarlet stocking as she was stepping out of a coach. Tim Tattle killed by the tap of a fan. Sir Simon Softly murdered at the play house in LVury lane by frqwn. W, W. Killed by an unknown hand, that was playing with the glove off, upon the side of the front box. Dick Tastewell slain by a blush. Musidorn slain by an arrow that flew out of a dimple in Flavia's left cheek," etc. Shakespeare shows us his lover in diting sonnets to his mistress eyebrow, from which bow, we may surmise, sped the shaft that brought him down. Verily, in view of the exceedingly " promiscuous" character of the apci dents that guide Caleb's phoice, he has reason, to cling, as for life, to the belief that matches are made in Heaven. Otherwise he has little "show" in the mighty lottery. The only hope that the few hints friends can throw out ior his guidance may be heeded, is in the theory that reversing the order of the miracle none upon the blind man there is a moment in which the eyes rest clear and critical, see through the first folds of Cupid's bandage, women as trees walking. When the silken tissue is once firmly adjusted, obscuration is complete. After that no experience, ave his own,' and that clearly bought, can enlighten hini. To vary the figure the love fit is cuvable only in the incipient stages. This opportunity lost it must run its course. It is a pity ! We know so well what goes to make up the ideal wife we lose patience with him who blindly seizes upon the opposite type of woman cr upon one who is no type at all. It is therefore with the feelings of one who beateth the air that I sit me down to see the preparation of this paper. I once knew a man who bore the burden for ten, years of a hopelessly invalid wife. H.e was heroically pa tient under ths crGS3, and mourned sincerely when the racked and wasted body was laid out of his arms upon the one bed to which pain never comes. Meeting him two years afterward I congratulated him upon his second betrothal, saying that I had heard he was singularly fortunate in his choice. Thank you," said the honest fel low, simply, "I U!:eve she is per fectly healthy." Begin we where he left off. Health of body, freedom from so much as a proclivity to organic disease, is a con: sideration so important to one who anticipates qarviage that the wonder grows in thoughtful minds at the habit ual disregard of the question. It may be chivalric to undertake the charge of an ailing wormian, and benevolent to smooth her pathway to the tomb ; but the childless widower who has dvvelt lor the best years of his life in the vallew of the shadow of d( ath, or the frantic father who sees the devel opment in his offspring of the dread malady that cursed their mother's ex- istence, may wen aepiore tne eariy madness that has borne such fruit. A man has but one life. That spoiled there is no redress. Without full ac- quiescence in Darvin's dogma, that legislation should step in here to pro tect the race, we can hardly state tao forcibly the fundamental fact that no diseased man or woman has a moral right to marry. Said a young divine in asking ad yice in a dispassionate and Ctelebsian spirit of an elder teacher of righteous ness : "The woman I love is intelligent,' affectionate and pious. Her only de fect is an ungovernable temper, but I trust, with the grace of God, to be able to endure that." The reverend father raised a warn ing hand. " No, my son. Let her alone. Leave her to the grace of God. That can live where you could not." Let those who do not dread " Kate the crust," or shrink from a Petruchio's office, neglect the admonition. The solitary bright saying (so far as I know) of a slow-witted sufferer from virago's tongue and temper, was that which recommended a friend to "strike matches on a powder keg all day rather than marry a vixen." The counsel of another ghostly father introduces the next section of our theme so aptly that I cannot resist the desire to quote it. His neophyte regretted that his beloved, although good, amiable and comely, was not endowed with practical wisdom, other wise known as common sense. " Dismiss all thought of marrying her!" ordered the senior apostle. " Were she a heathen she might be converted. It is not in the power of the Almighty himself to put common sense into a head that was made up without it." Wise Words. It is far more easy to acquire a for tune like a knave than to expend it like a gentleman. God's grace is as great as eternity, and as vast as the sea, The day of judgment will be to the saints the great coronation day. Every road which leads to a throne is delightful were it bristling with thorns; every road which leads to a precipice is frightful, were it covered with roses. Praise the direction of one's truest ideal is stimulating and encouraging praise. Any other praise gives discom fort rather than satisfaction. The bad fortune of the good turns their faces up to Heaven, and the good fortune of the bad bows their heads down to the earth. Infidelity reproves nothing that is bad. It only ridicules and denounces all that is good. It tears down it never constructs; it destroysit never imparts life; it attacks religion, but EQers no adequate substitute, Be not at loose ends; but intent, earnest, doing each day all that is possible, the impossibility of doing perfectly being one of the most ob vious proofs of immortality. If wealth comes, beware of him, the smooth, false friend. There is treachery in his proffered hand; his tongue is eloquent to tempt; lust of many harms is lurking in his eyes: he hathahqllow heart- use him cautiously. l;ere is a wise and good sentiment from old Father Turtullian : " What a man should not say he should not hear. The things which defile a man in going out of his mouth, defile him also when they go in at his eyes and ears." A man never gets over the influence of an early Christian home. It holds him in an eternal grip. Though his parents may have been gone 40- years, the tears of penitence and gladness that were wept at the family altar still glitter in his memory. The lark, goes up singing towards heaven j bqt when she stops the motion of her wings, then straightway she falls. So it is with him who prays not. Prayer is the movement of the wings of the soul; it bears one heaven ward, but without prayer we sink. Was He Buried Alive ? Last week, in order that a certain lot in the cemetery might be cleared and arranged for the interment of a body, it became necessary to exhume two corpses that were buried there, Qne of them vas the scout, a member of Capt. Ashby's Company which encamped near Clinton. While here he sickened and died and his remains were interred in the cemetery. When his grave was opened last week, it was found that the pillow which had been placed in the casket was in perfect condition ; but the strangest thing was the position ot the corpse which was lying face downward. Clinton Dem ocrat. An editor wisely says : If you have a grudge against a man it is better to inveigle him out behind the barn and there settle the matter for better or for worse, than to rush into a printing of fice and try to make the editor an in nocent club with which to thump your ! antagonist.

How to Dress The Baby The Nurse, too, Must be Dressed iu Uniform Ojiite an Innovation in Servants' Attire, Not only must Madam be in the pink of fashion, but Madam's baby and the nurse of Madam's baby must be, as it were, to match, in correct styles. Just now the rule has the matron tiroll along followed or ac companied by a very swell foreign nurse, bearing in her arms Madam's very tony baby. I say foreign nurse, because only a foreign nurse will allow herself to be dressed in anything like a uniform, and of course a swell nurse must wear distinctive dress. Quite the most correct thing is a serge or beige gown of dark brown or dark blue. A very fine and stiff white apron covers all of the skirt not hid den by the big cloak. The latter is a round cape affair "reaching to the hem of the dress, and of material and color HER MA S FASTIDIOUS. to match. It has a border all around and a collar of cloth of a darker shade. The nurse's hair is combed straight back from the forehead imagine a native nurse submitting to that ! and on her head is a big, very wnite anu very still cap, strings down the back. 1 . . ft with long The baby wears a very long cloak of white cashmere or silk, embroidered with a floral design in white silk. The cloak has a round cape that comes down half the length, and is edged with a ruflle, also embroidered, of the silk or cashmere. On baby's head is a won derful fine hood and cap in one. The hood is of white silk, and the cap shows in front by a lot of very fine lace ruffles. It is tied under baby's chin by white ribbons, and you find baby somewhere between the cap and the cloak, as nurse carries it aloft on steady strong arms, so that the beauti ful cloak hangs straight and uncreased to the full length of it. A baby car riage is very bad form! Muscle, foreign muscle, is the thing. Jackets with velvet sleeves, and three-quarter capes are displayed in endless variety. Naturally, the favorite purple is to be found wherever it is possible to introduce it, and there are mantles and sleeves of it galore, A very pretty model is in petunia cloth, three-quarter length, with a deep cape over the shoulders, and a collar of black plush, ornamented with jet, and having cords and tassels of jet down the back. Some Bengaline capes are marvels of cheapness considering their value and the stylish appearance they lend. A few have intermediate shoulder canes of mauve or green velvet, and an edging of jet to finish off the capes. Another model of the same silk had a novel style of shoulder cape of black velvet, which reached to the waist.

THE PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS. The, World's Fair Formally Opened hy President Cleveland- His Talk Brief but to the Poiut. When President Cleveland arose foreigners and natives alike joined in the acclaim to the highest representa tive ot the sovereign people of the re public. There was a flutter of white handkerchiefs from the ladies' side of the platform, and instantly il was taken up by the thousands of the sex that occupied the gondolas and launches on the water far in the dis tance. At last, when throats and arms alike were tired, and a semblance of quiet had once more come over the throng he commenced his address. He said : " I am here to join my fellow-citizens in the congratulations which befit this occasion. Surrounded by the stupendous results of American en terprise and activity, and in view of the magnificent evidences of American skill and intelligence we need not fear that these .congratulations will be ex aggerated. We stand to-day in the presence of the oldest nations of the world and point to the great achieve ments we here exhibit, asking no al lowance on the score of youth. "The enthusiasm with which we contemplate our work intensifies the warmth of the greeting we extend to those who have come from foreign lands to illustrate with us the growth and progress of human endeavor in the direction of a higher civilization. " We who believe that popular edu cation and the stimulation of the best impulses of our citizens lead the way to a realization of the proud national destiny which our faith promises gladly welcome the opportunity here afforded us to see the results accomplished by efforts which have been exerted longer than ours in the field of man's improve ments, while in appreciative renin we exhibit the unparalleled advance ment and wonderful accomplishments of a young nation and present the triumphs of a vigorous, self-reliant and independent people. We have built these splendid edifices, but we have also built the magnificent fabric of a popular government, whose grand proportions are seen throughout the world. We have made and here gather together objects of use and beauty, the products of American skill and invention, but we have also made men who rule themselves. " It is an exalted mission in which we and our guests from other lands are engaged, as we co-operate in the inauguration of an enterprise devoted to human enlightenment, and in the undertaking we here enter upon we exemplify in the noblest sense the brotherhood of nations. " Let us hold fast to the meaning that underlies this ceremony, and let us not lose the impressiveness of this moment. As by a touch the machinery that gives life to this vast exposition is now set in motion, so at the same in stant let our hopes and aspirations awaken forces which in all time to come shall influence the welfare, the dignity and the freedom of mankind." WINSTON AND DURHAM. The Largest Tobacco Markets in North Carolina. A Raleigh correspondent reviews the industries and products of North Carolina, and sets forth its wonderful advancement. In the article the fol lowing is said regarding tobacco: "But the capstone of this industrial pyramid is the tobacco industry, which far exceeds that of any State in the LTnion. There are 1 1 2 chewing tobac co factories, nearly half of which are located in the city of Winston. There are only ten smoking tobacco factories, but one of these, the "Bull Durham," is the largest in the world. The town ot Durham last year sola 11,000,000 pounds of smoking tobacco, four-fifths of which was made by the Bull Dur ham factory. All the tobacco used for both cewing and smoking is grown in this State, and a great deal more besides, which is shipped to outside factories. Durham and Winston pays over $ 1,000,000 a year for revenue stamps. These are the two principal tobacco towns, but there are a number of smaller markets where the weeL is largely handled, such as Reidsville, Oxford; Henderson, Greensboro, Ral eigh, Asheviile, Salisbury and other towns, in all of which there are tobac co warehouses and factories. The seed of sacrifice brings forth the fragrant fruit of love, and love al ways has in its heart the seeds of new sacrifice.

A Series of Interesting Articles on the Men Who Have Honored It Walter Clark, One of Them, in a Very Graphic and Enter taining Style, Has Something: to Say About Them. Wilmington Messenger. Several months ago we received through the courtesy of Judge Walter Clark the numbers of the Green Bag for October, November and December, 1S92, containing his sketches of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. They appear in the Boston magazine for lawyers, and contain portraits of Chief Justice Ruffin, Christopher Gale, John l,ouis Taylor, Leonard Hender son, John Hall, Archibald I). Mur phey, John D. Toomer, Joseph J. Daniel, William Gaston, Frederick Nash, William H. Battle, Richmond M. Henderson (spelt Richard in the table of contents), Matthias E. Manly, Edwin G. Reade, W. B. Rodman, Robert P. Dick, Thomas Settle, N. A. Hoyden, W. P. Bynum, W. T. Fair cloth, W. N. II. Smith, John H. Dil lard, Thomas S. Ashe, Joseph J. Da- ! vis, A. S. Merrimon, James E. Shep herd, A. C. Avery, Walter Clark and James C McRae. We purposed noting these sketches long ago but other mat ters shoved them aside from time to time. Of those named we have seeYi twenty-one Judges Nash and Toomer being the only two of the oldest named. We knew or know personally Judges Daniel, Battle, Reade, Settle, Faircloth, Smith, Davis, Merrimon, Avery and Clark. Our personal friends were Smith, Davis, Merrimon and Clark. The sketches have been prepared with care and show research. They are in the main no, doubt fair and dis criminating, and not in many in stances excessive in laudation, we sup pose. The series is interesting and valuable, and Justice Clark has done a much needed and desirable piece of work in writing it. It is interesting to the unprofessional reader as well as to the lawyer. We suppose that take it all in all the Supreme Court of North Carolina through the years will com pare favorably with those of other States. It is very certain that Hen derson, Ruftin, Gaston and Pearson will measure up with the greatest jurists in any of the States. The Supreme Court was first organ ized in 18 18. Twenty-nine Judges in all have sat on the bench, and seven were Chief Justices. John Louis Tay lor was the first of these. He was born in London, and of Irish parentage. Chief Justice John L. T. Sneed, of Tennessee, was his grandson. Was he not Chief Justice? We have long so heard. Judge Clark mentions him only as Attorney General. He was born in Raleigh. Chief Justice Ixonard Henderson was born in t.ranvuie county, lie was a great lawyer. Chief Justice Pearson in one of his latest opinions refers to him in high compliment, pro nouncing him the Jurist of the greatest reflective powers of all North Carol 1- mans witn tne exception 01 juuge John Haywood. He died in 1833. Judge John DeRossett loonier -was born in Wilmington in 1784, was graduated at the University of North Carolina and sat upon the Circuit bench and was on the Supreme bench for a few months. Judge Clark says "he was an eloquent speaker, an agree able writer of fine literary attainments, and an able and urbane gentleman." We remember him distinctly in con nection with a remark he made in the anti-chamber of the old Dialectic So ciety hall at the University. In 1848 he attended a recular session of the Society, and that night Victor Clay Barringer, of Cabarrus county, now Judge Barringer, of the International Court. Alexandria, hcvpt, made a long, eloquent and very impressive speech, for he was an able youth and a genuine orator. Judge Toomer said in our hearing. " There was no such speaking as that here in my time." Judge Archibald D. Muiphey was one of the most accomplished and sifted of the advocates and jurists of our State. He was born at the well known Red House (which we have often passed) five miles from Milton, in Caswell county, 1777. He too was an alumnus of the University of North Carolina, and was Professor of Lan guages there at one time. He was a man of distinguished mark and many L'ilts. He wrote perhaps with more literary skill than any other of the Judges. His address delivered at the University is most interesting and of unusual excellence among such pro ductions. Judge Clark mentions that Chief Justice John Marshall, the ablest ; ot all Supreme Court Judges, wrote in j praise of that address. Judge Hall was of Virginian birth. He was not especially eminent as a jurist and lived in Warren county. We will continue our brief survey of the sketches as space and opportuni ties permit.
