For the Home journal,


All! life hath little pleasure now,
For the sunny hopes of youth are past
And the blight, tho early sent,
My whole life will blast
I might have known such joyous dreams
Were TOO bright on earth TO stay;
But as youth was ever prone 10 do,
| still renewed my hopes each day.
And though dark shadows now are falling
Der this broken heart OF mine,
| feel that Con now loves me,
And His love doth brightly shine
But now sigh not that no more
The voice OF love, so low and street,
Which thrilled my bosom years ago.
| never more on earth shall meet.
[ sometimes weep, when none are near
That my youthful loves been wasted
Yet | bless the hour that gave tome
The litter draught I've tasted
For since my golden hopes have persncd
| oft in secret steal TO pray,
And wish, to COP I'd early given
The aoealth of love I've thrown away
All! It's when grief within our bosom
Steals like some guilty thing,
TO take away our hearts first love,
That to GoD we fondly cling.
Yes, let dark Affections come,
And sunny friendship be withdrawn,
Till then we seldom fly
TO COPS strong protecting arm.

DIAN JouRNAL-For the second time
in our life, we ere snusly cnsconccd in
this model hotel, the management and
popularity Of which have been heretofore
alluded to in the journal, 1t seems as If
every person who has good things 'ors sale
brings them to Thatcher, We would be
glad If you could visit this house and eat
meal or two. Everything is 90 neat,
Nice milk to drink, nice coffee, nice
meats, nice hot biscuits, and rery nice
butter to spread between, In fact, the
butter looks as nice and tastes as sweet,
almost, as butter made by TellinghoStS

that the butter we tasted waS chmncd by
the aboyenamod magnificent machine,
and If it was, then we'll take away tho
almost.
Our passage TO this town (maybc we
ought 10 say city, was not attended with
any remarkable or striking coincidence.
So dusty and undressing did everything
seem, that by the time VIC arrived here,
we were wolully under the influence of
"thc blues" But kind and attentive
friends soon elevated our spirits TO a
laughing and cxhleratng temperature,
and up TO this good moment they have
continued to ascend.
To-day has been one Of Gnc enjoyment
with us. In company with some accom-
modnlng friends, and at the solicitation
of Mr.. J. w. PoinIcyjer, we visited the

situation we feel constrained to praise.
Attached to the grounds is a nice gym.

similar one ought to belong to every
school in the worll. OF this school we
will say more anon.

hearts proceed we guess, from their anx.
ious expectations in regard 10 the "Groat
Southern Circus" which is to be here
next week. And we'd like TO SEQ the Cir.
