I 9 t 4 j i?s IM I! &. iff Hi Inrrlac. Men and women, and especially young people, do not know that it takes years to marry completely two hearts, even of the most loving and well-sorted. But nature allows no sudden change. We slope very gradually from the cradle to the summit of life. Marriage is grad ual, a fraction of ua at a time. A happy wedlock is a long falling in love. I know young persons think love belongs only to brown hair and plump, round, crimson chcek6. So it does for its beginning, just as Mount Washington begins at Bos ton bay. But the golden marriage J9 a part of love which the bridal day knows nothing of. Youth is the tassel and silkec flower of love, age is the full corn, ripe and solid in the ear. Beautiful is the morn ing of love with its prophetic crim son, violet purple and gold, with, its hopes of days that are to come. Beautiful also is the evening of love, with its glad remembrances, and its rainbow side turned toward heaven as well as earth. Young people marry their opposites in temper and general character, and such a- mar riage is generally a good one. They do it instinctively. The young man does not say, "My black eyes require to be wed with blue, and my over vehemence requires to be a little modified with somewhat of dull ness and reserve." When these opposites come together to be wed, they do not know it, but each thinks the other just like himself. Old people never many their opposites ; they marry their similars and from calculation. Each of these two ar rangements is very proper. In their long journey, these young opposites will fall out by the way a great many times, and both will charm the other back again, and by and by they will be agreed as to the place they will go to, and the road they will go by, and become recon ciled. The man will be nobler aud larger for being associated with so much humanity unlike himself, and she will be a nobler, woman for having manhood beside her, that seeks to correct her deficiencies and eupply her with what she lacks, if the diversity be not too great, and there be real piety and love in their hearts to begin with. The old bridegroom, having a much shorter journey to make, must associate himself with one like himself. A perfect and complete marriage is, perhaps, as rare as perfect persona beauty. Men and women are mar ried fractionally now a 6mall frac tion, then a large fraction. Very few are married totally, and they only, I think, after some forty or fifty years of gradual approach and experiment. Such a large and sweet fruit is a complete marriage that it needs a very long summer to ripen in and then a long winter to mellow and season. But a real, happy mar riage of love and judgment between a noble man and woman iB one of the things so very handsome that if the sun were, as the Greek poets fabled, a god, he might stop the world in order to feast his eyes with such a spectacle. Theodore Parker. One of those incidents which oc casionally transpire to give to those snarling skeptics who are contin ually preaching that all men are dis honest and all virtue dead, was brought to our notice by one of our business men the other day.Ue loaned a farmer one hundred dollars six or seven years ago, taking his note for that amount. He had dealings with him every year, amounting to sev eral thousand dollars in all. The business man looked over his papers a few days ago and destroyed the note under the impression that a settlement had been effected in the course of their transactions together. A few days later the man who gave the note came in to say that he could not pay now, but wanted a new note. "Why," said the payee, "I gueps you paid that; I remember 1 destroyed the note the other day." The other insisted that he never paid it and proved that it was so. "Well," said the payee, "The note is outlawed anyway." "My note is never out lawed" was the reply. "I want you to reckon the amount of that note and give me a new one." This was done, the maker of the note insist ing that compound interest should be computed, and a new note for $194 given. The result is that the business man is richer than he thought by $200, as the note is as good as cash, and is also a firmer believer in human nature than he was. Of course the mac did only his duty in the matter, but we fear there are many very many who would not have done as he did. We hope there are more like him than people generally believe. Central City Courier. It is surprising to read of so many farmers being taken in by 6harpers with some patent arrrangement, when the newspapers are contin ually warning them to look out for these oily-tonged villains. They certainly do not take their county papers. If they do and read them it is useless to waste sympathy on them. Again we Bay, beware of the .stranger who asks you to sign any kind of a paper, no matter what he represents it to be. State Journal. .A Loup city man made a sharp trade with a book agent by swap ping four Newfoundland pupa for one illustrated family bible. The question of mapping out the three congressional districts of Ne braska will soou be at the front, and has for the past year attracted more or less attention of politicians. A good many plans have been pro posed, but they have usually had for their basis the political fortune of this or that aspirant or clique. The obviously correct way of apportion ment is to make each district as "square" as possible, irrespective of political or personal conducts. Going into the matter from that stand-point, and commencing at the southeast corner of the state, in the same way the judicial districts are formed, this section being the oldest settled and most thickly populated portion of Nebraska,and we find that the counties of Richardson, Pawnee, Gage, Jefferson, Otoe, Johnson, Sa line, Cass, Lancaster and Seward form as perfect a square as possible, the northeast corner being bevelled off by the Missouri and Platte rivers a little. These eleven countieB have a population of 147,395, according to the census of 1880. The entire pop ulation of the state by that census is 452,402, the third of that, 150,800 is the measure of a district. The only county adjacent to this square can be added without making the district altogether too much above the ratio is Sarpy. Its population, 4,481, can be added without making much of a notch or jog, because it lies across the line of the bevelled northeast corner of the district. With Sarpy we have as perfectly a compact district as may be with a population of 151,876, a thousand and seventy-six more population than the Nebraska ratio. For the second district we find a section nearly square and a solid slice of territory in the northeast corn er of the state comprising the coun ties of Douglas, Dodge, Colfax, Platte, Nance.Burt, Cuming.Stanton, Madison, Boone, Black Bird, Wayne, Pierce, Antelope, Dakota, Dixon, Cedar and Knox, nineteen counties, with a population of 151,024225 more than the ratio. The balance of the state, embracing all of Ne braska west of the sixth principal meridian south of the Platte, and the county of Merrick east thereof, with a population of 148,501, or about 1,300 less than the ratio, would, as compactly as possible, form the third district. With such bounda ries for our districts, the district with the largest population would be the smallest, and most thickly settled, and the largest and moBt thinly settled district would have the smallest population, which is fair. The Journal does not insist upon this as the only fair and equitable method of districting this state, but it suggests it as the most obviouB and convenient plan, taking territory, population, aud not political exi gencies as the only basis. In case a full state census is taken this spring in accordance with law, and the apportionment is not made until after that count is made, of course it may appear that the rela tive population of these sections have changed, and it may be found equitable to make these two east ern districts still larger and the western correspondingly small. The census of 1880 is made the sole basis of the division we have indicated. No attempt to take the census of 1881 appears to have been made by the majority of the counties. Lin coin Journal. Two WayN of EieekiaK a TbiBgp. Two boys went to hunt grapes. One was happy because they found grapes ; the other was unhappy be cause the grapes had seeds in them. Two men, being convalescent, were asked how they were. Oue said, "I am better to-day ;" another, I was worse yesterday." When it rains one man says, "ThiB will make mud ;" another, "This will lay the dust." Two children looked through col ored glasses. Oue says, "The world is blue," and the other said "it is bright" Two boys eating their dinner, one said, "I would rather have some thing other than this;" the other said, "this iB better than nothing." A Bervaut thinks a man's house is principally kitchen ; a guest that it is principally parlor. "I am sorry that I live, says one man. "I am Borry that I must die," says another. "1 am glad," says one, "that it is no worse." "I'm sorry," says another, that it's no better." One man counts everything be has a gain. Another counts everything else than he receives a loss. One man spoils a good repast by thinking of a better repast of anoth er. Another enjoys a poor repast by contrasting it with none at all. One man is thankful for his bless ings. Another is morose of his mis fortunes. One man thinks he is entitled to a better world, and is dissatisfied be cause he hasn't got it Another thinks he is not justly entitled to any, and is satisfied with this. One man makes up his accounts from his wants. Another from his assets. "Why do they call the man who gets married the groom, pa?" asked little Alexander. "Because he cur ries favor with his mother-in-law," said Phillip, "and saddles his debts oh bis wife's father, puts acheckon her cousin's visits, whips the chil dren, and drives while the rest of the family pulls." Tke Mormon JlostroUj-. Senator Edmunds has passed his poligamy bill through the senate and it will doubless become a law. The Mormon will have to surreudcr his unchristian and immoral life' or move on to Patagonia or the canni bal islands, where neither the rail road nor the civilization which it brings cau reach him. To do that will be more than these Latter Day Saints of unrighteousness will be willing to pay for the luxury of their particular inspiration. The bill in flicts a penalty of three hundred dol lars fine or six months' imprison ment, or both, at the discretion of the court, for each and every wife, over and above the "one, undivided and inseparable" which the common law and Christianity allows. Of course the law cannot have any re troactive effect. That would be in contravention of the ex post facto clause in the constitution, but the in stant the act takes affect, that instant the self annointed saint must annul the bond and break the seals of his covenant with the woman or he goes to jail under the federal warrant. The idea of a man, with the marvel lous name of John Smith, going in to ecetacy, or into spiritualistic trance and assuming to have re ceived a special inspiration from heaven, in which he is ordained to teach the most pernicious doctrines, and then organizing a society; to dis turb the holiest relations of our lives as well as violate the divinest sen timents of the Christian dispensa tion is a singular commentary upon our "free" institutions. And stran ger still, when the outraged sense of a well ordered community resents the shameless offense, the man nam ed Smith, proclaims himself a prophet of the Lord and his follow ers, the latter day saints, beyond the reach of the social order and above the ken of mortal ordinance. It is true that they build up a home in the desert, but it is also true, that they baptised it in the blood of mur der and in tears of womanhood. It is true they have made the wilderness to bloom and blossom like the rose, but it is also true that they, have blistered the land with the curse of Sodom. We shall wait curiously to see how Smith's inspiration, inherit ed by Taylor will work under the new dispensation of this penal stat ute. Omaha Republican. Complaint is made by some of the Chicago people who recently vis ited Mississippi City by way of New Orleans that southern hospitality is a myth. The substance of the com plaint is that barbers, aud hackmen, and bartenders, failed to treat the visitors with any consideration of distinguished regard. On the con trary, these persons, taken by the Chicago visitors to be the exponents of southern hospitality, if any such thing exists, took ad vantage of the situation to charge three prices. The party of Chicagoans who went down south proceeded thither intent upon witnessing one "slugger" pound another "slugger's" nose. The party was composed largely of Chicago aldermen, policemen and gamblers. The peole of the region they visited would have quite as much right to speak slightingly of the character of the northern people, taking these travelers as representatives, as they have to complain of an absence of hospitality to which they could lay no possible claim. It is true that the bartenders, the hackmen, and the barbers might have had more con sideration for men whoso admiration for bruising-matches induced them to journey from the lake to the gulf, but the gentlemen of the bar may be inclined to fix their scale of prices by the quantity of liquid en tertainment taken at a gulp, aud it is not supposed that the Chicago al derman who gleefully journeys moro than a thousand miles to de light his nature with witnessing a couple of the boys punching one another's peepers is lacking in ca pacity when the bottle goes around. If the barber's charge was large, it will not be forgotten that an alder man's check is sometimes as expens ive as it is hard. As for hackmen, it may be presumed that they regu late their charges largely upon the character of their loads and the late ness of the hour at which their ser vices are brought into requisition. If they are compelled to carry their fare up the front steps and assist in the removal of its boots, it is but natural that they should include this service in their bill. The intelligence which indicts southern hospitality, or, rather, declares that nothing of the kind exists, i6 such as may be ex pected to delight in prize-fights. Chicago Times. Flavor of the Hind. There is no more interesting spec tacle than to see the effects of wit upon the different characters of men ; than to observe it expanding cau tion, relating dignity, unfreezing coldness, teaching age, and care, and pain to smile, extorting reluc tant gleams of pleasure from melan choly, and charming even the pangs of grief. It is pleasant to observe how it penetrates through the cold-1 ness ana awawaraness oi society. and gradually bringing men nearer together, and, like the combined force of wine and oil, giving every man a glad heart and a shining, countenance. Genuine and innocent wit like this is surely the flavor, and brightness, and laughter, and per' fumes, to enliven the days of man's pilgrimage, and to "charm his pained steps over the burning marl." Sijd- ney Smith. Toplcx of the Time. The farmers' institute, held in Ne maha county last week, is said to have been the best ever held in the state. The house crowded to a jam each day. This we regard as a good omen, and hope to hoar similar tid ings from those to be held at Beat rice and Table Rock next week. When the average farmers become interested and take a leading part in these meetings organized in their in terest, we make expect to see a higher standard of agricultural prac tice follow. In this connection we will be permitted to suggest that at these institutes is the proper place to lay out the practical wbrk for the coming season. Differeut individu als advocate different modes, wheth er it be the culture "of crops or the management of stock. Why not make up a little purse to be contend ed for in the different depariments? Let the entrance fee be small, but enough to secure a trial, and let the results be made known and the question be settled at the county fair next fall. To our mind the time will be much more profitably spent aud agricultural interests better ad vanced than in watching a plug race or in witnessing some idiot try to climb a greased pole. Lincoln Journal. New England and "the AthenB of America" will scarcely be prepared to believe that young Nebraska leads the United States in the ratio of intelligence, yet the fact will be shown by the census reports. Only 1 73 per centum of her population are illiterate. Ohio comes next with only 2.71 per cent; Illinois is third with only 3.5 per cent, of her popu lation illiterate; then comes in order New York with a percentage of 3 28; Pennsylvania, 3,41, and then Massachusetts, 4.24. It may be said of all the states of the northwest that they brought with them their old New England notions of educa tion and impressed them upon the communities where they settled. And it cannot be less than gratifying to note the results, especially when we take into account the large for-, eign popnlation found in every new state and the struggles with poverty that are always the lot of the pioneer. Inter-Ocean. Frank Hattnn, Assistant Post-ma'e-ter-General, is a newspaper man. and "knows how it is himself." He has issued the following order, which will find favnr with the fra ternity. It is a hard blow to the newspaper borrowers: "Postmas ters will not allow non-subscribers to take from the boxes, nor will they band to them newspapers ad dressed to subscribers refolded and returned by them into the general delivery, without verbal or written permit from such subscriber. A violation of this regulation will be considered as sufficient ground for the removal of the offending post master." The Rev. Washington Gladdon, ot Springfield, Mass., writes to the In dependent, wishing to record his own conviction "drawn from a pretty extensive knowledge of jour nalists and of clergymen, that the average editor is a little more fair and Christian in his dealings with truth and in bis treatment of those who differ from him than the average minister." "Can't eat late suppers," said old Mr. Gorgit, dragging his friend Lcatherby into a restaurant after the theater. "Can't eat late suppers. Man alive, if I had such a stomach as that, I'cWakc it out and sell it for tripe! I'd realize something on it some way. It doesn't appear to bo of any use to you in its present condition. The business men of a town in Wisconsin were much exasper ated at the non-arrival of letters mailed by them, and complained very bitterly until it was ascertained that they had been posting them in in a disused mail car at tho railroad station. No man will excel in his profes sion if he thinks himself above It; and commerce will not flourish in any country where commerce is not respected. To pin our faith on another man's sleeve, and submit to be led by au thority, deprives us of independ ence, and subjects us to just con tempt. A lively imagination is a great gift provided education tutors it. If not, it is nothing but a soil equally luxuriant for all kinds of seeds.

From COL. L. T. FOSTEB. Youngstown, O., May 10, 1880. Dr. B.J. Kendall Co., Gents: I had a very valuable Huinblotonlian colt which I prized very highly: Ik' had a large hone spavin on one j.)iut and a smaller one on the othei which made him very lam; I had him under tho charge of two Veterina v Surgeons which failed to cure him. I was oue day reading the :ulvertlsrinent of Ken dall's Spavin Cure in the Chicago Ex press, 1 determined at once to try it and got our Druggits here to send for it, thev ordered three bottles; I took them all and thought I would give it a thorough trial, I ued it accordiug to directions and by the fourth day the colt ceased to be lame, and the lumps had entirely disappeared. I used but one bottle and the colts limbs are as free from lumps and as smooth as any horse in the state. He is entirely cured. The cure was so remarkable that I let two of my neighbors have the remaining two bottles, who are now using it. Very Respectfully, L. T. Foster. KBNDALL'S From REV. P. JV. GRANGER. Presiding Elder St. Albans District. St. Albans, Vt., Jan. 29, 1880. Dr. B. J. Kendall & Co., Gents: In reply to your letter I will say that my experience with "Kendall's Spavin Cure" has been very satisfactory in deed. Three or four j'ears ago I pro cured a bottle of your agent, and with it, cured a horse of lameness caused by a spavin. Last season my horse became very lame and I turned "him out for a few weeks when he became better, but when I put him on the road he grew worse, when I discovered that a ring bone was forming; 1 procured a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure and with lt.s. than a bottle cured him so that he is not lame, neither can the bunch be ton nil. Respectfully yours, P. N. Grangkr, KENDALL'S SPAVIN CUKE!

Its Effects arc wonderful on hitman jlesh and it does not blister or make a sore. Try it and be convinced. KENDALLS SPAVIN CUBE!!

I have owned the horse ejght months. It took me four months to take the large oue off and two for the 4mill one. I have used ten bottles. The hone is entirely well, not at all stiff, and no bunch to be seen or felt. This is a won derful medicine. It is a new thing here, but if It does for all what it ha done for me its sale will be very great. Respectfully yours. Cuas. E. Parker. SPAVIN CURE STATEMENT MADE UNDER OATH. To "Whom It May Concern. In the year 1875 I treated with "Kendall'. Spavin Cure," a bone spavin of several months' growth, nearly half as large as a hens egg, and completely stopped the lameness and removed the enlargement. I have worked the horse ever since very hard, and he never has been lame, nor could I ever see any difference in the size of the hock joints since I treated him with ''Kendall's Spavin Cure." It. A.
