FRIDAY t APRIL 6, 1877. MARK TO BE TBUE. - Dare to be true, whatever your station, No matter what your name or your nation; Undaunted and tearless be every thought. Your earnest conviction honestly wrought. Dare to be true though the fierce scornersrall, And your brave conduct revile and assail; Let the scoffers scoff, and the haters hate. Be steadfast and firm whatever your tale. Dare to be true all unshackled and free, Unlettered and bold, on land and sea; Determined ne'er to let soul-bllndlng error Inspire with dread or fill you with terror. Dare to be true wherever you are, Though the curse comes bitter, near and afar: Though fair-weather friends are faraway fled, And unthinking people would you were dead. Dare to be true and mark strictly your way, By the Truth's steady light, day after day; Sale It will lead you all dark dangers past. And heaven's sweet glories on earth will fore cast. Dare to be true though public oclnton Would make you a cringing, slavish minion; Would a It rattles its numherlpas rphIs Crush out your life with its Juggernaut wheels. Dare to be true let no blinding passion Lead you astray, or give you occasion To blush for yourself, or weep blttertears. Because of a stain on your manhood's years. Dare to be true never let clanking chain Hold you Its victim for greed or for gain ; For Freedom and Right your bauner unfurl, All forms of oppression away to hurl. Dare to be true In this great world of ours. Where deceit and falsehood blacken the hours, wnere minions oi cowarus ever arise, The true, honest soul is a gem to prize. Dare to be true In each word and deed ! Let love to brotherhood be your great creed ! Be true to yourself, whether young or old. For the wealth of Truth is better than gold! Dare to be true and forever obey The spirit within, that leads not astray; To nobody born for praise or for help, But aim to be ever, Lord of Yourself ! Johnson's Overcoat. She bad promised bim that she would mend the lining of bis new overcoat, if be would wear another and leave that at borne. And so, be bad left it, she took it from the ball rack and carried it into her sewing-room. She was Mrs. Wilton, and she bad been married hve years, and never never never during that time had bad one unhappy moment. Mr. Wilton bad been very attentive, very kind, very generous, and never made lier jealous She often said she was the happiest woman living. Now, as she looked at the lining and compared the silk witn which she was about to replace the torn portion, she was thinking these thoughts. They had never had any children, but when people are all In all to each other, that Is no very great grief. All her care was for him all his for her. "And be is just the best, dearest, tru est fellow in the world," said Eva Wil ton to herself. "I'm not half good enough to bim. I wonder what this is in bis pocket; it bulges it all out of shape." She put her band in the breast pocket as sue spoKe and drew out a little pack' age wrapped up in silver paper and tied with blue ribbon. "Something be has bought for me, I expect," said Eva. "I wonder what it is. I think I won't open it until he comes home;" then she laid the silk across the bole and cut it out and basted it down. "I wonder what it is," said she. "Tom did mean to get me an opera glass, know; but this is not the shape of the parcel. It doesn't seem like a book. It might be lace wound on a card real lac" She looked at the package again. "I do wonder what it is?" said she, and hemmed tbe patch down. "There wasn't much to mend, after all," she said. "I thought the tear much longer. He caught it on a nail at tbe office, I know. Now I do wonder what there Ib in that package." Eva put tbe coat over a chair and took up tbe little parcel. "Tom wouldn't mind," she said. will just take a peep. I'm sure it is for me." Then she undid the ribbon, unfolded me paper and saw letters. ".Dear Tom," said she, "he must keep my old letters next to his heart, as be has told me." But the writing was not hers; she saw that at a glance. "His mother's letters," she said. "He loved bis mother so." Then she began to tremble a little, for the letters did not begin: "My dear son," nor anything like it. She cast her eyes over them. They were love letters. "Tom has loved some other woman before he met me," she said, beginning to cry. "un, wnat snail I do Y" Then she cried out: "Ob, foolish, foolish crea turetbatlam! Of course she died, and be only loves me now. It was all over before we met. I must not mind" but there she paused, trave a scream, an threw the letter from her as though it n aa oeen a serpent and bad bitten ber, It was dated tbe past week. It was not four days old. "Oh! oh! oh!" cried Eva. "Ob what shall I do? Oh, where shall I go?" At every cry a thought pierced her breast like an actual stab. "Tom, my Tom What shall I do? Tom! Tom! He to be false Tom! Ob, I have gone mad! No, unere tney are! Tliey are really than those letters! Why do I not die? Do people live through such things these 7" Then she knelt down on the floor and gathered up tbe letters and steadily read them through. There were ten of them. Such love letters! No other In terpretation could be put upon them They were absurd love letters such as are always produced in court in cases of Dreacn ot promise. And they called bim "Popsy Wopsy," and "Darling jraniugy," ana -juovey uovey," and -uwn oweemess" and "Your own Nel lie." "It is all true," said poor Eva, wring ing tier nanas. "Ann it is worse tbau anything I ever heard of. I trusted bim so. J. believed in bim so. My Tom mine!" Then she wiped her eyes, gathered up the letters, packed them up, wrapped the silver paper around them, tied tbe oiue riDoon, puc mem back in tbe awful breast pocket or that dreadful overcoat, and nung it on tbe hall Tack ncaiu. "Tom shall never know," she said, --J.-H uoi, reproucu mm. l will never see him again; when he comes home will be dead. I will not, live to bear IU1B." Then she sat down to think over tbe means of suicide. She could hang her- ecu w iub uuanaeiier witu u window blind cord, but then she would be black in the face and hideous. She could drown herself, but then her body would go floating down the river to the sea; and drowned people looked even worse than strangled ones. She was too much afraid of fire-arms to shoot herself even in this strait. She would take poison. Yes. That would be best; and though she would never see Tom again, he would see her, and remorse would sting bim. Here she made a great mistake. A man who is coolly treacherous to woman never has any remorse. Re morse la love affairs is a purely femi nine quality, aud even tbe worst of our sex are not without it. However, it is natural to believe that remorse is pos slble to a man whom one has heretofore believed to be an angel in human form, and Eva took a little miserable comfort In the thought that Tom would kneel beside ber coffin and burst into tears and passionate exclamations of regret, which she, perhaps, might see from some spiritual post of observation. So, having put on ber hat and thick veil, Eva took herself down the street, and around the corner, to the nearest Ger man druggist. Tbe druggist was an old man, a be nevolent looking one. with red cheeks and a smiling mouth; and when she asked for "noison for rats." he said 'So!" and beamed mildly upon her. "i want it very strong," said Eva. "So!" said the druecist. "But not to give more pain than icessary," said Eva. "To the rats?" asked tbe druggist. ts "Yes," said Eva. "of course: and it must be quick, and not make one black in tne lace." Aud with a crave countenance be compounded a powder and banded It across tbe counter. Eva took it and paid tbe few cents be asked, and walked away. Once home she went at once to ber room and un dressed herself aud retired to bed, tak ing the powder with ber. Once or twice sbe tasted it with the tip of ber tongue, hoping it was not very disagreeable. Then, finding it sweet, she bravely swallowed it. "It Is over," she said. "Oh Heaven. forgive me, and forgive Tom." And tuen sbe laid berself down upon her pillow. Just as she did so the fa miliar sound of a latch key in tbe door oeiow started ner. Tom never came borne at noon but there he was now; no one else but Tom would walk in in that cool way, aud now he was calling ner. "Eva Eva Eva where are you?" Never before bad she refused to an swer that voice. Why had he come to torture ner dying moments? Hark jnow he was bouncing un stairs. He was in the room. "What is the matter? Are vou ill. Eva?" he cried. "No," sbe said faintly "only tired." "Ah! You look tired, little one." said he. "I came home to get tbe overcoat I suppose you've found out by this time that that in tbe hall is not mine; I wore Johnson's overcoat home from the office last night by mistake, and be is anx ious about it. He asked me if there was any one in the house who would be apt to meddle witn papers or anything in tbe pockets, l said i thought not, hadn't a jealous wife eh ? What's tbe matter, liva V" "Oh, Tom!" cried Eva, hysterically, "Oh, Tom, say it again! it was not your coat? Oh, Tom, kiss me." Why, what is the matter, Eva?' cried Tom. "You must be ill!" Then Eva remembered all. "Oh, I am a wicked woman, Tom!' she cried. "There were letters in the pocket love letters. I read them thought you false to me. I I took poi son, Tom. I'm going to die and I long to live so. Ob, Tom, kiss me." fes, yes!" cried Tom. "Ob. good heaven, what poison?" "Mr. Motiman will know. I bought ltoi mm. .remaps lie can save me!' cried Hiva. He burst into the shop like a whirl wind. 'The lady!" he gasped. "The ladv who bought poison here an hour ago! She took it by mistake. Can you save ner? Have you any antidote? She is dying!" "JNo, no!" said tbe old German. "Be calm, be at rest! No. no; sbe cannot die of dat. When a lady ask me for poison aat win not turn a rat black in face I say to myself so: 'I smells some things,' and I give her In de pader shust a little sugar and somethings. Sbe could take a pound. Go borne and tell ner so. l never sells poison to womans dat cry and do not wish de rat to become black in de face. So be calm." So Tom flew home again, and Eva r& joiced; and hearing that Johnson was a single man, who admitted bimself to be engaged, sbe did not rip tbe natch as sue naa at nrst intended.

Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered as wishing to continue their subscriptions. 2. If any subscribers order the discontinuance of their newspapers, the publisher may con tinue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their newspapers from the offices to which they are directed, the law holds them responsible until they have settled the bills, and ordered them discontinued. If subscribers remove to other places with out informing the publisher, and the newspa pers are sent to the former direction, they are held responsible. 6. The courts have decided that refusing to take newspapers from the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, Is prima facie evidence of Intentional fraud. 6. The postmaster who neglects to give the legal notice of the neglect of a person to take from the office the newspapers addressed to him, is liable to the publisher for the subscrip tion price.
