The following graceful song we find in the Even
ing Post of the year 1902. from the pen of q dis
tant friend," as the editor says. Who was tn
writer? Efs- .sa r-
In briery dell or thicket brown
On mountain high, in lonely vale,
Or where the thistle sheds its down,
And sweet fern scents the passing gale. Co
There hop the birds from bush to tree.
Love fills their thfoas,
Love swells their notss,
Their song is love and liberty.
No parent bird shall love direct,
His fair he seeks In plumy throng,
Caught by the plumage Of her neck.
Or kindred sofiness Of her song.
They sing and bill from bush to tree.
Love fills their ihroats,
Love swes their notes.
Their song is love and liberty.
Some airy songsters feathered shape,
Oh could my love and assume,
The ring dove's glossy neck he take,
And the modest turtIe's plume,
Oh then we'd sport from bush to tree,
Love fill our throats,
Love swell our notes,
Our song be love and liberty

PHILOSOPHY OF BR ANDRETH'S VEGE.
TABLE P1LLS.-When the t.eory of the circula-
ton OF the blood established, the secret springs of
vitality were then partially exposed to view. We
saw and understood that the food we eat con-
verted into blood, which repaired the OF the ami.
mai machine; the food Is fuel, which keeps at lie
heat the internal fires that warm and invIgorate the
inner man. The blood is electric fluid which car
res this heat to every rancaton OF the body even 10
the extremes OF the hair and horny nail. While lhs
blood Is thus The seat OF lite. it Is also the OF dis
ease. Food pves the body strength; Brandreth's Pills
give blood the necessary power to throw out from itself
all impurities thus rendering the stream of lie pure and
healthy. III men were more slacere, there would
be lever religious creeds; and if they kept closer TO
natures lawsia the management OF their bodies, they
would require little medicine AS men grow more in.
elliaent they will become wiser and happier even now
their W isdom is proved by the fact that when sickness
assalls them, they use Brandres Vegetable Universal
Fills, which soon restores them to health.
They are peculiarly adapted to this climate, and re-
qure no extra when they used either in diet or
clothing. They should be always in the house, so that
upon the ilrs indication OF sickness they may be used.
One dose in the beginning, potent for good than
a dozen after the sickness is fixed in the system la
colds coughs asthma, rheumatism. eostiveness, eves,
and IN all ACUTE eavyOr deep seated pains their eeca
will be found beyond all praise. Three five vii act
hike charm, often curing dangerous maady once.
saving months OF sickness and the evils thereto attend
ing. Remember, Brandreths Pills are known and
FULLY tested medicine, that is used by hundreds OF
thousands in this country and throughout the civilized
world. They are quietly supereedmg sill other medi-
cnes They take out only that from the blood which

The editor of the Petersburg Intelligencer. de-
precating the idea of being considered somewhat
obtrusive,' urges arguments to deter the North
Carolina Legislature from granting the right of
way for connection between the Danville Rail-
road and the Central Railroad of that State. One
reason he gives is, that the connection would tend
to injure the interest of the State in the Central
road; but this matter, we presume, the Legisla-
ture is quite as competent TO understand, as any
of its Virginia advisers. Another suggestion of
the Intelligencer's is, however, calculated to have
an undue effect, because it alleges what should be
better known here than in North Carolina, and
what is really unsustained by the facts. The
editor having referred to his own prediction, made
at the time the Danville Railroad bill was pending
before our Legislature, that the work would cost,
sat the least, $4,000 OoO," proceeds with evident
satisfaction to say:
"By reference to the Engineers Report, and looking
at the of money expended and the amount OF work
DONE our readers will that prediction prove
true. Indeed THE work is to go it has been
going on, when the whole One Hundred and Fifty
miles are completed and stocked with the engines and
necessary to do the business which its friends cal
culate will be done on the Road it will be seen that
the outlay has been not short o t So 500 Goo"
And, shortly afterwards, he says: eve have
shOaon that, the road cannot be finished to Danve
for less than $3,Oo0,0OO"
Now, all the evidence and argument adduced by
the lntelligencer to justify the summary conclu-
sion announced with the sweeping phrase sue
haze shoaon &c., consist in the previous general
reference to the Engineers report, and the editors
round assertion of what it establishes We have
read that document, and we must say that we can
not see how our friend of the lntelligencer drew
his deductions from it. The report makes it ap-
pear that on the 30th of September last there had
been expended, under the head of construction of
the road and branches, the sum of $77775S, of
which $333,602 was for materials (including
rails for the permanent way, and $22,S4l for
work done West of Staunton, The amount of
work done and to be done on the line from Rich
mond to the Staunton river, distance OF some 100
miles, was thus stated:
Description. amount done. amount to be done.

These figures show that about half the earth
excavation, two-thirds of the rock excavation and
masonry, and six-sevenths of the bridging, on the
line to the Stanton had been executed on the 30th
September and the cost of all the work done,
East of the Staunton, exclusive of the superstruc
ture purchased, and the cost of laying part of it
was about S4l5,0o0 The report shows that the
