In the white winter will I dig grave, ,; r - ?;
' And gently lay sway my "lent dead;; :
Pity xne God, though ia my wretched grief
No sigh is given not one tear is abed r,
I hare prayed'wUdly through these' dreary hours.
Bat much like mockery has been my cry,
. For God to spare this one hope of my youth
To Jet this cup of bitterness pass by.
It will be quite the same another year -The
birds will come, the early violets grow;
The grass will green upon the meadow-lands,
The air grow soft tha murmurous waters
flow;--- -.'- .
But the sweet dream of my weak woman's heart.
Will with the icy winter 'melt and go.
But if 'twere better so I still would shrink.
And humbly ask for woman's common part,
An arm to shield, a smile to cheer and bless
To shelter me a loving, tender heart. -
Above a winter's gray I stand alone; -,
No tears shall flow ome, rather all my
' ' pride ! - : - ' ' ; s
Above this wreek 111 simply write these words:
"Ho room for grief, only a Hope hath died 1"

The weak is strong to-day;
And sleekest broadcloth counts no mora
Than homespun frock Of gray.
To-day let pomp and vain pretence
My stubborn right abide; .
v. I set aplain man's common sense ,
'Against the pedant's pride.
To-day shall simple manhood try
The strength of gold and land;
The wide world has not wealth to buy ;
; , The power in my right hand !
While there's a grief to seek redress.
Or balance to adjust "

Than Mammon's vilest dust,- .
While there's a right to need my vote,
A wrong to sweep away,
Up I clouted knee and ragged coat f

' " , A Word to Fretful .Wives.
There you are, with your mouth pucker
ed up again 1 What's the3 matter ? Are
your friends all dead ? No well, have
you lost every cent you ever owned ? No
are your children ' sick ? Ia your ' hus
band cross ? have you got tooth -ache, or
heart-ache ? Neither of these, and still
as cross as a young bear ! We wonder how
your fainily can endure your presence.
These young hearts, whose sun you ought
to be how you chill them with your frowns
and pettishness ! No wonder they long to
.get out of the house. And now. you have
struck your little child because "he would
not stop teasing.'.' Friend, that blow fell
on his soul, and left an indelible scar there.
He will feel it long after be has forgotten it.
Many year3 from now, . when your head i3
laid low in the grave, that blow, given with
out cause impatiently, angrily, will do its
work.
Why can't 70U be good natured. Were
ycu never so t Memory points to the days
of your childhood seldom the lines of an
ger disfigured your brow then. And the
man who won your love'' thought "what 'a
happy home she will make for me ! How
sweet it will be for me to sit down by her
side after the cares of the day are over!
How beautiful to read for her pleasure to
be repaid by 6miles and kisses. And the
home -was ready, and the bride established
but she proved unworthy of the trust re
posed. in her. Instead of meeting care with
a hearty laugh, and "get behind me satan,"
you worried and fretted, and began to tell
every little trouble to your husband. It
was not womanly; it betrayed a weakness
of both head and mind. Imperceptibly ts
influence crept into his spirit, chilling it
with a worse chill than that of death, till it
made a shroud of iron for the disappointed
heart, and the charm of love and family and
home was gone. .. ..
''Was once ?" how often these words
drop from your lips. - '""I wa3 handsome
once I was this, that and the other once"
and why not now? You, yourself, have
, willed your own destiny you have chosen
the scold's office; you must receive the
scold's deserts. A little philosophy, a few
words breathed to heaven for patience a
new resolute hope for to-morrow if to-day
be stormy a little self-denial in telling pet
ty crosses- a great deal less selfishness a
desire to make home a sanctuary for your
self and little ones as well as your husband
and to-day you would have been happier,
handsomer, and more, beloved. " J : ;
- Fretting sister - in light - affliction, let us
ask a few plain questions. Does a spirit of
lault-auding lighten your cares? It-your
bread is burned to cicaer, does it bring you
a good light, ; sweet loaf, to . sit down und
worry about it ? If fhe baby ia cross,
does it make him. smile like an angel to
shake him almost out of existence ? If it
rains on washing dav. will vour anathemas
hurry out the sun until he stops right over
your cioines-nne 7 But if your quick bands
should turn to the flour barrel to mould an
other loaf if you soothe the weeping babe
with sweet words of .a mother's pitying love
if you devote your washing day tosome
acDroDriate work, how smoothlv ear ;wili
iron down his feature, and become your
humble slave, instead of the tyrannical
master he would be I
It is not too late yet; Surprise your bus
band with a smile it will be worth a dol
lar to see his glance of astonishment; hold
the salted water, of. though tfulness in your
mouth, that you may say- nothing unpleas
ant, and the angel that has been lying pros
irate in hia heart with folded wings will be
gin to flutter, and lift itself heavenward and
look out of its eyes with tha love of the ol
den time, and your home will yet be - the
paradise you onca coveted. . ' ' .
... It ia good plan to dig the ground wound
ten roots of garden shurbs and fruit trees, as
it destroys every surface fibre and drives the
larger roots downward. Mulching or cul
tivating with a hodlo keep down the weeds
ci Jet ia the air and moisture, is belter, and
fisswer the same purpose.
' Within a lew months K. TV x will be so
more. The . bleeding-Territory we have
known so long we shall know no more for
ever. When we travel into the country we
6hall go out into the State. When we go
to the deserts of Lecompton, or the Herald
of "Freedom office, we . shall .say,V "Here
Walsh plundered the archives, and here
Brown preached whatever doctrine seemed
most conducive to the public printing." In
Leavenworth the pallid fotms of Eastin and
Halderman (with- the 'tnaffle hiC in his
left hand, ) of Judge Sanders W. Johnson
and Dr. Davis will stalk about its black He
publican streets with an insane and idiotic
glare, aiinueoia turner win en vu iawc a
office steps offering shares to a promiscuous
public. The play-bills will announce King
Lear with H. Miles Moore as Poor Tom.
Sammedary, , having failed to make Kansas
Democratic, will hastily return to Washing
ton, there to await the organization of the
Golden Territory. A thousand "as good
Free-State-men-as-you-are" will leave in
an early boat or become Republicans. All
petty incumbents of dirty offices .will swear
that they lovd an Abolitionist, and would
really enjoy stealing a few niggers. AH
these things must come- to pass, but be not
ye amazed. -Jilwood Frest.
No Use for Trowsefs.
On the morning of the meteoric shower
in 1832, old Peyton Roberts, who intended
making an early start to his work, got up
in the midst of the display. On going to
his door, he saw, with amazement, the sky
lit ud with the taJJmar- meteors, and he con
eluded at once the world "wa3 on fire, and
that the day of judgement had come. He
stood for a moment gazing in speechless
terror at the scene, and then with a yell of
horror sprang out of the door into the yard,1
right into the midst of the falling stars, and
there, in his efforts to dodge them, be com

would have done honor to a rope dancer.
His wife, being awakened in the meantime,
and seeing old Peyton ' jumping and skip

know what in the name of common sense
he was doin out thar, dancin round with
out his clothes on. But , Peyton heard not
The judgement, and long back accounts he
would have to settle, made him heedless of
all terrestial things, and his wife, by this
time becoming alarmed . at hi3 behavior.

"Peyton, -1 say Peyton, what do you
