The soft, loose gold of her tresses
Is straying about her face, .
And - the wind through.its silken meShes
Is running a frolicsome race;
Her violet eyes—howthey: darken a - ndflasli!
Her rose-red cheeks—how they glow ! i
As she stands, ankle-deep in the milk
,
white drifts!
'Pelting me with the snow.
She tosses the soft flakes round her,
In her pretty, hoydenish play,
Till she looks like a sea-nymph rising
Through the billows of foam and spray.
She moulds the balls with her little bare
hands;
Do you think she would pout or scold
If I nestled the pink palms down in my
breast
To warm them ?—they look so cold !
IE tar white wool mittens are flung on the
snow,
Each one in itself a flake,
And her silken scarf beside them lies,
Coiled up like a crimson snake.
All about me the tracks of her soft brown
feet
Have printed the downy snow,
And I know by them where, another spring,
The prettiest flowers will grow.
She laughs and scoffs when my snowballs fly
Harmless over her head,
And she flirts her curls in a saucy way,
And crouchesin mimic dread;
She calls me a sorry-marksman,
An awkward fellow—and still
She,
sly little witch, knows well enough
It isn't from lack of skill.
She knows I would sooner think
Of tearing a butterfly's wing,
Or of beating a lily, or throttling
The first sweet robin of spring,
Than of aiming at her in earnest,
• Or hitting her if I could,
Or harming so much as a tassel
Of her little scarlet hood.
Gay, beautiful Madge ! Oh what would she
do
If my mouth was half as bold
As the crystals which fall on her lips and
her hair,
Like pearls among rubies and gold?
Will her pride and her wilfulness trample
my love
As her feet have trampled the snow ?
That the'missiles she flings, which are ice to
my face
Are fire to my heart, does she know?
Sweet tease ! does she guess I am wondering
now
Whether she'll ever be,
In the long, long future before us both,
Anything more to me
That a little hoyden with wild, gold hair,
And red-rose cheeks in a glow—
Who stands, ankle-deep, in the milk-white
drifts,
Pelting me with the snow ?
LFrom Ent= Burritt's Recent Travels In Ragland.]
Honiton Lace.
"I wished much to see how this deli
cate fabric was wrought, and by what
kind of fingers and in what kind of
houses. So the proprietress of the ware
house sent one of her assistants with me
to a small cottage on a back street,where
three women were at work on a floor of
cement spread upon the natural earth.
It was a small apartment, hardly high
enough for a man to stand upright with
his hat on, which he never ought to do
in such a presence. I felt impelled to
lower mine with unusual reverence at
the sight.
Two of the women, the occupants of
the cottage, were sisters between sixty
and seventy years of age. The third was
a neighbor who had dropped in with her
working pillow, and was plying her
needle with her bonnet on ; • just as in the
olden time neighbors in New England
would make a morning call, taking their
spinning-wheels with them. I sat on a
stool, and had a long talk with them on
their art and occupation. The eldest of
the sisters wore spectacles, and a long,
still, solemn face, which seldom took on
the sunshine of a smile in the course of
the conversation. She had worked on
lace for more thon fifty years. She had
wrought on the wedding-dresses of three
generation of queens—Adelaide, Victo
ria and Alice. She worked the royal
arms, with the lion and the unicornand
the motto, put up before the window of
the sales depot—an exquisite specimen
of taste and art.
"The business was now very 'much
depressed. She could hardly earn a
penny an hour. Many of the young
women had been obliged to abandon it
altogether, and seek service as common
house servants, scrubbing floors, and
handling pots and kettles with fingers
;that had worked white tissues of flowers
and foliage, which queens were proud to
wear on their coronation days. She had
heard of some of the causes that made
the trade so low; but she had understood
them dimly. She did not read the news
papers; but she had heard of the war in
America. They had told her that it was
something about exchange that hindered
the sale of lace.
"Poor woman ! I looked into her still
and solemn face, at the worn, lean fin
gers as she spoke of these things in such
a subdued and murmuring tone. She
little knew the long-reaching and
ruinous sweep of war,.the infinite rami
fication of its destructive issues. She
had not vigor of mental vision to see,
- though she felt it to the core of her hun
gry wants, how the invisible sirocco of
war blows with unabated breath over
the widest oceans and continents, and
blights the humble industries of the
poor in distant lands.
"Thetprocess of lace) working is ex
ceedingly interesting, requiring the
nicest judgment of the eye and a finger
skill of the greatest felicity. Although
it is wrought in clay-floored cottages,
and in the one room that serves as parlor,
kitchen, cellar, and sometimes sleeping
apartment, the lace, worked in the most
elaborate and varied patterns, is deliv
ered at the salerooms as pure and un
sullied as the thread at its giving out.
It is wrought on round, plump cushions,
or pillows, and as fast as the figure pro
gresses, it is covered with a thin belt, or
veil of. oiled silk, so that only a very
narrow slip or space is exposed at one
time to any subtile dust or accidental
touch of the finger.
r. "Of course the Honiton lace is all
wrought by hand, and has to compete
with a very elegant article made by ma
chinery in Nottingham and other towns,
that manufacture it in vast quantities
for the markets of the world. In face
.of such almost overpowering competi
tion, this slowly-Worked fabric of the
- fingers struggles to hold its own. It
still 'rules' as the most perfect and dura
ble, as`welll as the most elegant em
broidery of bridal dresses of princesses
• and ladies of high ,nobility and fashion.
.- r ;fit is a pity, when they are so proud to
• ' wear it, that the artists who clothe them
with such flower-work should be so
poorly paid. Somehow or other this

inequality. between the wearer and
maker is: the Widest and worst in articles
of lu - xur3k Diamond-diggers and pearl
divers and ermine-hunters have always
had a harder I time of it than even :Ithe
Honiton labe-workers. The blunt
fingered men who-follow the plough and
wield the sickle fare better."
stump Anecdotes.
In the good old days of stump-speak
ing, the man who could tell the best
anecdote was very likely to throw into
the shade the most elaborate logician
.and the most classical orator. We used
to think our old friend Billy Gilmer
(who says Napoleon was a General Jack
son on a small scale) could tell more
anecdotes in one speech than any man
we ever heard of. But Mr. Gilmer is
completely eclipsed by a Western orator,
one Cary, in quantity, if not the qual
ity, of anecdotes. We never saw ex
actly such a speech before.
He is described by the reporter as
having a happy faculty of introducing
the word devil into his remarks by way
of emphasis, which were invariably.re
ceived with great laughter and cheering
by the audience. The man's speech
had absolutely not one argument in it,
but was full of the broadest and most
profane anecdotes. Some idea 'a the so
called politician may be gathered from a
few specimens which we have purged
of some of their abounding grossness.
After relating an adventure of an
Irishman with a polecat, he said that he,
the speaker, had got converted - since the
war, as old Sam Adams was. Old Sam
Adams went downstairs to get a pitcher
of water. The old woman (his mother
is meant, probably,)said, "Samuel, don't
break the pitcher.' But Sam slipped,
and, instead of trying to save himself,
he clutched the pitcher with both hands,
fell, and broke his nose. The old
woman came to the cellar door and said,
"Samuel, have you broke the pitcher?"
".No," said he, getting up, holding his
nose, "but I'll be cussed if I don't do
it;" and he slung it against the wall. •
The orator did not vouchsafe to ex
plain what the anecdote illustrated, or
what object he had in telling it, except
to amuse the audience. He then went
on with a lively dissertation on the pro
gress of education and invention. He
said he remembered the first time he
wore a shirt. [Cheers.] He went to
church in his bare sleeves to show it.
The men then used to wear shirts made
of tow linen, rough enough to wear the
hide off an ox. He said a Yankee, left
in the middle of the Atlantic ocean,
would - whittle himself ashore to some
uninhabited island and get a patent
right for the invention in less than a
month.
He, the speaker, saw an invention the
other day which milked seven cows in
five minutes, agd the cows don't know
that they are milked, and so go ou
giving it down as you like. He said he
didn't know as man was made by nature
for a voting animal. He said he thought
if nature had so intended, he would
have been made like a possum, with a
place to carry the ballot in. [Great
laughter.]
He next told a story about an Irish
man who was passing a jackass, who
brayed at him. Taking that as a per
sonal address, he went up to the jackass
and said: "You are a fine looking beast;
you have got a magnificent ear and an
illigant voice, but, divil take yer soul,
ye can't vote." That was the only dif
ference he could discover between the
jackass and himself. [Great laughter.]
Mr. Cary then referred to that "un
damned scoundel," Vallandigharn,and
said: "I would just as lief have another
civil war as that this cursed Copper
head party should ever again get into
power."
He closed with a long story about a
yoke of oxen which ran down hill and
turned the cart over; and the Irishman
who was driving thus described it:
"The larbard ox got over on the star
board side, and the starboard ox on the
larboard side, and they all went to the
devil together." So he thought the
Democratic party would go to the same
quarter.
In sitting down he apologized for not
having been able to discuss the great
principles involved in the canvass, and
expressed his regret for not having two
or three hours to himself.—Richmond
Despatch.
• Making . Her Nark.
General Fisk, in a speech in Cincinnati,
last week, relates the following :
Over $20,000,000 worth of property in
Tennessee has been returned to the people
by the Government, upon their compliance,
with the conditions laid down for those
once in rebellion. There are 90,000 people
in that State who can neither read no:
write • yet their hostility and bitterness
towardsi the negroes who are learning, is
beyond description t unrelenting and in
tense. "A few evenings ago," said General
Fisk, "there came into my headquarters at
Nashville, a Tennesisee lady elegantly at
tired in silk and velvet, to talk with me;
as she said. I gave her a seat. She took it
pith 'an air,' and told me she wanted to
recover her property seized by the Govern
ment. She abused it heartily, and read ms
a lecturEr.on - Yankees and Abolitionists, and
execrated them severely for killing her
husband in battle, for he had only gone
with the South to fight for its rights. I
gave her the circular to read which contains
the condition of the Government for clai
plants to comply - with. She asked •me to
read it for her. I told her; that I had no
time; that she had better do it herself, and
then fill up the "blanks'? provided to prove
the legitimacy- of her claim. She then
admitted that she could neither read nor
write.
I own that while I pitied her, I felt a little
mischievos; so I pointed to that ! young
Ohio clerk, and told her she would write
out the document for her. She was horrified,
and asked me with sharpness and aineriV,
"Can that nigger write?" Yes, madam, I ,
said, and he will attend to the business for
you. With some reluctance, she went to his
desk. He arose, bowed and gave her ftseat,
and made out in a fine round handithe ne
cessary statement, and then read it for her.
It was then 'offered for her signature, but
when she dreW off her glove and I saw a
splendid diamond sparkle on her finger as
she made her "mark," I pitied her from my
heart, for the superiority, the real stlperior
ity, of the negro was seen in the! simple
transaction._
The poor woman, perhaps, felt it thenher
self, for she wept, came to her senses re
gretted her harsh remarks about the "nig
ger," and went away with ideas More be
conaing„a reconstructed woman than when
she came.
Opposition to the Bureau, General Fisk ;
continued, I find in every shape. The old
talk that the nigger won't work, I ,find on
every hand, and the people want to be let
alone, just asthey did ;when they were try
ing their best to destroy the Government.
But we won't let thena alone, fort when I
went among them to carry out the business
of this Bureau, it was with the convic
tion that white and black must Jive to
gether. • ;
The labor of the blacks is wanted there,
and it can be had if the whites will now
only do right in getting it. It is my, en
deavor to earnestly inigage both in build.
