( Hie .lay no long since and it was an evil day an old acquaintance visited ; him. They had in the years pn been warm friends fir they had ftmifht to gether under the banner of the sunny South and oft had shared the same blan ket as partisan yes, guerillas, bush whackers, if you like. Right glad they were to meet, and the husband received him cordially for old times' sake, and the wife made him wel come for the sake of her hualauid. One night, as they sat around the ruddy hearth after the evening meal, the two men talked of the stirringstrenes through which they had passed, and, ax old sol diers will, "foiurht their battle over ai.ii in." While enjraifed in dwelling on remi-niscen.-es of the war her husliand p-mark-cd that he never knew how stptnsi were the feeling of affection a man had for hi family until he himself had married, and placing his heavy hand on his oiui panion's knee, he said : "John I have always I wen sorry tliat I did not let that poor Yankee Lieutenant see hia wife and child before we strung him up ten years air." His w ife heap! the p-niark and slowly p.. to her f.s-t, tier face as white as mar ble and her distended eyes fixed Upon her husliand 'a face with an expression of intense horpir. Twii-e she essayed to speak, but failed ; then w itii a loud, un earthly, hearthpiken screa.-u she fell like a corjse to the floor. When she recovered her jnsckusnes the had little to say. The light of her life had gone out forever. She loved her husband, for he had been good and true and kind to her. Perhai he was not so mn h to blame that he killed her first love. It was the fortune of war, she stip posed ; but but she could live with him no 1. mf.t r. h, no '. There came a picture fiDiu the halls of memory that bade her )? And taking her boy, she went. Her sad story told before the Court in a suit for divorce freed her forever from the ties w hich bound her to one w hose verv presence conjured up the frightful vision which the guerilla chieftain had pp-parcd for her eyes ten years before. Why Do Bees and Wasps Sting ? Their weuious often serve to protect them fpm their enemies, but with bees, especially the honey or hive bees, at the approach of winter, the drones or males are no longer of any use, and are killed off by the stings of the workers, to save the stop's of honey they would ntherwrn consume. With many of the wasps their stings are food preservers. The large wasps which make their holes in the gpund, and some bees, like the Carjn ter bees, which cut circular holes in IxwpIs, or other wood, deiosit an egg in one of these holes, place food for the the grub that will hatch fpiui this egg to f.-ed uiKin. and when this grub has made its growth it goes into the chrysalis state, and in time conies out a perfect bee, or wasp, as it mav le. But, you as, "What has this to do with the sting? A great deal. If the caterpillar or other insect intended as for the young bee or wasp were dead, when stop-d away, it would decay and be useless. The effect of the poison of the sting is to keep it in a semi-torpid existence, alive, but still dormant, and thus preserve the food in a ppiper condition to be eaten by the grub of the bee or w asp. In this respect we can see that sting plays a very useful part, but when the sting is employed upon ourselves, we fail to see what good end isatromplished. Even when a bee keeper is doing his best for the comfort and welfare of his bees, they will often turn upon and sting him, most needlessly and painfully. Ann nam Agritvltnrinl Jor Jly.

W quote the following eloquent pwsjav from Lincoln's Lewis town speech of August 17tb, 1S-W. This speech was made during the same can vass for the Senate, but it was not one of the debate speeches: "The I)eclaration of Independence was formed by the rep resentatives of American liberty from thirteen States of the Confederacy, twelve of which wereslaue-holdingcommnnities. We need not discuss the way or the rea son of their becoming slave-holding com munities. It is sufficient for our purtsise that all of them greatly deplored the evil (Jenernl f. F.

" The firt duty of the youn$ law yer," said (encrl But ler, " is absolute fidelity in one's client. The lawyer is the adviser and director of his client in hia business affiirs. You are to do for him what he would do for himself did he poi-iew your learning and talents. "Some say. 'Oh, yon must not defend a guilty man.' Why not? Would he not defend himself?

Again he appealea to nis in human captors and implored them W let him see his wife and child but a moment before he died. Bat even as he suppli cated the leader put the Cital loop around his neck, gave a signal with his hand, and the unfortunate man was swung off into eternity with a prayer for the w id owed wife and orphan child U(rfn his lips. The next day the corpse was discover ed swaying in the wind by a passing sol di.T w ho, stopping at the next house which hapjiened to lie tlie home of the (),l-cr told the woman that there was a man hangin s. dead a short distance dow n the PKid, and it was better jsrliap he should r.t-eive a Christian burial. This was not infrequent news in that locality, and, nearly all the men being in the ar uiv. the sad work of interring the dead and caring for the wounded depended ! dow n, and motioned to the frightenec unto his lius. sez I. " Pause, Josiah Al len, and don't imbibe too much.' " Why," he whispered, "you can drink all vou are a mind to, for 5 cents. I am bound for once; Samantha Allen, to gut the worth of uiv money." And he drinked tlie tumbler full down at one swoller, almost, and turned to the wearv hov for another. He lookeit had. and eager, and sez I, " How many have vou drinked?" Sez he, in a eager, animated whisper, " 9." And he whispered in the same ax enUs, " 5 times is 4-", if it had been to a fair, or Fourth of July, or anything, it would have cost me 4." cent, and if it had been to a chup-h social lemme see 9 times 10 is W.

And ag'in he drinked a tumbler full 1 Constitution which they supiosed would gradually remove the disease by cutting off its soup-e. This was the alailition of the slave trade. So general was the con viction, the public determination, to abolish the African sUive trade, that the ppivision which I hare referred to as be ins places! in the Constitution deHared that it should not he abolished prior to the vear !IS. A constitutional prnis ion was necessary to prevent the people, through Congp-ss. from putting a stop to the traffic immediately at the close of the war. N'ow if slavery had been a gd thing, would the Fathers of the Republic have taken step calculated to diminish its beneficent intltirnifH among them selves, and snatch the lionn w holly fpto their posterity ? These communities by their representati es in old In.u'pendence Hall, said to the whole world of men: We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men arerreated equal ; that they are endowed bv their Creator with cer tain inalienable rights ; that anion these are life, liberty, ami the pursuit of happi ness.' This was their maj-stw interpreta tion of the economy if the Universe. This was their lofty, and wise, and noble understanding of the justice of the Cre ator to hia creatures. Yes, geutlemen, to all his creatures, to the whole great family of man. In their enlightened be lief, nothing stamped with the divine im ago and likeness was sent into the world toTje tredden on and degraded, and nn bnited by its fellows. They grasped not only the whole race of man then living, but they reached forwapl and seized up on the farthest posterity. They erected a beacon to guide their children, and their children's children, and the countless mvriads who should inhabit the earth in ther ages. Wise statesmen as they were they knew the tendency of ppisperity to breed tvrants, and so they established these great self-evident truths, that when in the distant future some man, some faction, some interest shisald .et up the iloctrine that none but rich men, or none hut white men, or none but Anglo-Saxon white men, were entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, their pt terity might look up again to the Pecla- ration of Independence and take courage to renew the battle which their fathers began, so that truth and justice and mer cy and all the humane and Christian vir tues might not be extinguished from the land ; so that no man would hereafter dare to limit and circumscribe the great principles on winch the temple of liberty was being built Xow, my countrymen, if you have been taught doctrines conflicting with the great landmarks of the lieclaration of In ilependence ; if you have listened to sug estions which would take away from its grandeur and mutilate the fair symmetry of its ppiportions ; if you have been in clined to believe that all men are not created equal in those inalienable rights enumerated by our chart for liberty, let me entreat you to co ne back. Return to the fountain whose waters spring close by the blood of the Revolution. Think nothing of me take no thought for the political fate of any man, w homsoever but come back to the truths that are in the Ieclaration of Independence. You may do anything with me you choose, if vou will but heed these sacred principles. You mav not only defeat me for the Sen ate, but you may take me and put me to lea th. While pretending no indifference to earthly honors, I do claim to be actu ated in this contest by something higher than an anxiety for office.
