and the other had just arrived.
The new conner was lament

or if he had a family.
"YeS, sir, | have wife and
six children in New York.
and | never saw one of them"
After This reply, the couple
sat a few moments IN silence /:
then the interrogation again
commenced:
"Was YOU ever blind, sir?"
"No, sir"
did you marry a widow,
sir?"
"No, sir"
"Did | understand you to
say, sir, that you had a wife
and six children living in New
York, and had never seen one
oi them ?"

Another and a longer pause
of silence then the Interroga-
tor again inquired
''How can it be, sir" thai
you never saw one of them 2
"Why," was the response.
"one OF them was born alter

Railroad.

At meeting of the citizens of the
northern part of Panola county, Miss,
at Sledgevillc, ON Saturday, the 18th
of April, 1850, DR.. Geo G. TAFT Was
called to the Chair, and Benz. W. Bed
ford, Jr., and DIR. Greenyill Dowell,
appointed Secretaries, when the fol-
lowing preamble and resolutions on
the subject of railroad from Mem
phls to New Orleans, via Jackson,
Mississippi, were offered by Maj. d. S.
White, and unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, The Eastern valley of
the lower Mississippi is comparatively
destitute of fine navigable streams tri-
butary either to that great river or
falling into the Gulf of Mexico, and
the river itself is bordered by an ex-
tensive swamp with but few convent
ent points of approach for several
hundred miles. a connexion by rail-
road between the cities of Memphis
and New Orleans, via the city OF
Jackson, in this State, would be d
work of vast Importance to all three
of said cities, and of incalculable val
ne TO the whole intermediate country.
That portion of the great valley thro,
which the road would pass, is one OF
the most fertile and delightful on the
globe, and filled too with population
/ distinguished for wealth and intelil-
gence, enlightened enterprise and III
| domitable perseverance, in all the III

TO COMING NIGHT.
BY :. n. :. 7.

Shades of night around descending,
Light and shadow softly blending,
Twilight's welcome hour,
What varying scenes thy shadows veil,
A. softly over hill and dale,
You steal with darkcning lengthening trail
With sOftvning soothing power.
Oh could'st thou bring to every heart,
That's pierced by sorrows ranking dart,
4 balm to soothc its woe,
Then doubly welcome were this hour,
When shades of night around us lower,
And cares that are days weary dover,
With lights bright beams might 20.
Then rest, tho weary one might find,
And day might leave no care behind
Whose spell could Danish sleep;
A sweet respite for every grief,
for all life's cares short relief,
An hour of rest, though 'twcre but brief,
For those that mourning weep.
Then were it n foretaste of the rest
That waits us beyond the vale Of death,
''To weary mortals givcn,'
When care can never bring its blight,
TO dim of peace and jay the light,
But all for us will be fair and bright,
When we seek rest in heaven.
