The CRops IN GEoRGIA "A letter dated Nj

The CRoPs IN GEORGIA. letter dated Mon
tczuma, Southwestern Georgia, June la, says:
"From tho best information, the quantity Of
corn planted in this section is from 10 to Is per
cent. greater than ever before. Wheat crops arc
over an average, (now harvested.) Oats arc
hardly an average CROP in consequence Of the
length of the drought at the time they were max
ing. From this point we ship in a season from
10000 TO 10000 bales of cotton. At present
there are but 50 bales in store, and none, com
paratively speaking, in the country around this.
The pressure Of money and the high price has
prompted every farmer to hurry his cotton TO
market. The country is very well supplied with
breadstuffs. There are at present from 10000
10 $4,000 bushels Of corn more than will be
needed for consumption in this section"

The most important town on the Sea of Azoff
is that of Tanganrog, with $4,000 inhabitants.
IL forms the depot for the produce OF the south
east of Russia. The town was founded by Peter
the Great. Amongst its public buildings are re-
markable the Admiralty, the Marine Hospital,
the Quarantine Building, the Bank, and the Col
lege. IL has an Exchange, and about ITO ware
houses. The fort citadel which protects the
town is said to be in a state of decay Taganrog
has 26 vessels of larger description and ga for
the coast navigation. The harbor is only acces-
sible for vessels Of inconsiderable draft. II was
here that the Emperor Alexander died, on the LIST
Of December, 1925.
Smpheropor, against which General Pelissier s
movements appear to be directed, is the capital of
the Crimea, it counts Ia 900 inhabitants Of which
from 5000 to 5000 are Tartars. The town is stu
ated on the base Of the Taurian mountain chain
1t is described as well built, and presenting with
the villas surrounding it, beautiful aspect. It
contains six churches, amongst which the cathe-
dral is remarkable Tor being built in good archi-
tectural taste The town has also Russian Col
lege, four other schools and several factories II
is central, and consequently a most important
point in regard TO the trade in the productions Of
the Crimea. Its acquisition by the allies would
prove, therefore, great advantage, az it would
make it possible to thus draw supplies from the
resources of the country, which they have hither-
TO been unable TO effect. General Pelissier has
told his soldiers that they would receive for this
march upon Simpheropol only four days provi-
sions, as on the fifth they must be in the town.
But yet he has not been able to cross the Tcher

ONE OF MY FRIENDS.

his muse TO such felcitous strains.
ONE OF MY FRIENDS.
BY THE ExmE-NoT OF ERIN
One of my friends is very fair,
Her lips are like fresh budding roses,
The smile that parts the ruby pair,
Pearls ofthe purest white discloses
The locks upon her lovely brow,
Rest with sweet, fantastic lighlness,
And, in her eyes bewitching glow,
We dream of Heaven in all its brightness
Her voice is like the song OF birds,
When Spring puts forth her fairest flowers,
And sweetly flow her graceful words,
As flows brook through Summer bowers.
Over her mild, angelic face,
The rays of soul are ever beaming,
And her sweet forms SURPRISING grace,
Excels the poets widest dreaming.
Look on her soft and snowy hand
Remark each straight, patrcan finger
And, as upon Fairys wand,
Your eye would there forever lneer
Like the young fawn's her tiny foot
Touches the earth with fairy motion,
Or like little wavelet, mute,
Upon the stormless breast of ocean.
On for some spell of magic power
Some lamp, Arabian and enchanted,
TO bear me TO that gentle flower.
For whom my soul so long hath painted
Alas three thousand stormy miles
Three thousand miles of stormy water
Debar me from the spot, where smiles
Vlrgnia's fairest, rarest daughter
But, if that eagle, which was seen,
Once on time, by Harper's Ferry,
Would lend his golden wings, ween
This dropping heart would soon be merry
Oh swifter than his swiftest flight,
Clearing the calm or stormy Heaven,
Unmndful of the day or night,
Regardless OF the morn or even
Like the lightning's vivid fash,
Like TO some wild thing, driven frantic,
I'd fling me, at single dash,
Across the broad, storm vexd Atlanticl
From this dark land | would away
And plying each enchanted pinion,
Swift as the Suns descending ray,
Alight within the Old Dominion
I'd perch upon certain Dome,
That memory wots of-there I'd wing me-
Then, STOPPING TO her peaceful home,
la rapture, AT her feel, Id fling me
Hoi Fancy whittier drivest thou?
Thy horses wild and curbless wander,
Return them 10 the stupid plough,
That, in the furrow, waits them yonder.
Ho! turn their heads from Fairy Land,
Unto this Land, no, uholiy pagan,
Restrain them, with master hand,
And stable them in COPENHAGEN.

Curious TVPocRAPHIcAL ERRoR.-Professor
Trench, in his latest work on the English Ian
guage, points out curious typographical error
IN the goth verse of the Odd chapter of Matthew
The words (which strain at gnat and swallow a
camel, the professor thinks contains msprnt,
which, having been passed over in the edition of
1911, has held its ground ever since. The trans
lator intcnced to say, 'twhich strain out a anat
and swallow camel, that being the correct
rendering Of the original, as appears in Tynsdale
and Cranmer's TRANSACTIONS, both of which have
"straned oa. " Ii was the custom or the stric,er
Jews to strain their wine, vinegar, and other
portablcs through linen or gauze, lest unawares
they should drink down some little unclcan in
sect, as gnat, and thus transgrcss the Levitical
law. 1t was to this custom, it is alleged, the
Saviour alluded, intending to say that the Scribes
and Pharisees, while they strain out gnat from
their drink, would yet swallow camel at gulp
