THE FIRM BANK.

THE FIRM BANK.
IMPOSED TO hare been ic'itten BY Rsr. Rotc'dn
HilI at n time tcheH public credit an Gred
Britain IcGS shaken By a failure OF ssuerc
Banks.
7 have q never failing Bank,
more than Golden Store;
No earthly Bank Is half so rich, .
How can tRen be poor? ...-.
lis when my stock is spent and gone,
And without groat,
I'm gisd to hasten 10 my Bank,
And beg little note.
Sometimes my Banker smiling says,
"Why don't you oft'ner come.
And when you draw q little note,
Why not u larger sum.
"Why live so niggardly and poor,
Your bank contains plenty,
WI. come and take a one pound note,
When you might have twenty.
Yea, twenty thousand ten times told,
Is but triiIng sum,
To what your Father has laid up,
Secure IN God his Son."
Since then my Bank CT is so rich,
have no cause TO borrow,
I'll live upon my Dash TO day,
And draw again tomorrow.
I've been a thousand times before,
And never was rejscted:
Sometimes my Banker gives me more
THAI a ked for or expected.
Sometimes I've felt little proud,
I've MANAGED things so clever;
But an before the day was gone,
I've felt as poor as ever.
Sometimes with bushes in nv face.
Just az the door | stand:
kn II Moses keep me back,
surely must bs dsinned.
i know my hank viii never break
No, II can never fail,
The hrm-three persons in one God
Jehsvah-Lord of all.
Should all the Banks of Britain break
+, Inc Bank OF England smash
brlng IN your notes to Zion Bank,
You'll surely get your cash.
And If you have but one small note,
Fear not 10 bring 1t in:
Come boldly TO the Bank of Grace
The Banker is within.
All forged notes will be refused,
Man merits are rejected;
Thers's not single note will pass,
Inat God has not accepted.
lis only those beloved BY God.
Redeemed by precious blood,
That ever had a note to bring
These are the glfts Of God.
Tho Thousand ransomed soul. may say.
They rave no notes at all
Because they feel The plaques ofsin,
so ruined Uy the fall
The Bank is full Of preci ,us Totes,
al sLgn'd and seal d and lee.
1houxh many doubling souls MY say
There Is not one for me.
Blse unbsiief Will lead the child
To saw what Is not true;
tell the soul that feels seif-lost,
These notes belong 10 you.
The leper had little motto
- Lord II thou wilt. thou oan''
The Banker cAsh'd this little note
And heard tbs sIckly man.
We read Of one young man, indeed.
Whose riches did abound
But In the Bankers book of Grace
lhls Nan was never found.
BIT see the wretched, DYING thief.
Hang 10y the Bankers side.

With their vclvcts mn Sitins and laccs.

And their uillinnr figures aud faces;
They miy shin" nj At party or ball,
Enblazoncd with half tlicy possess,
But give me- in place OF them all,
My girl with the calico dress.
She is plump as partridge, and fair
Az tho rose in its earliest bloom;
Her teeth will with ivory compare,
And her breath with the clover perfume,
Her step is as free and as light
Asthc fawn's whom the huntcrshnrd press
And her eye Is as soft aud as bright,
My girl with the calico dress.
Your dandies and foplings may snccr
At her simple and noblest attire,
But the charms she permits to appear
Would set whole iceberg on FIRE!
She can dance, but she never allows
The huggng, the squeeze and cnrcss;
She is saving all these for her spouse,
My girl with the calico dress.
She is cheerful, warm hearted and true,
And kind to her father aud mother;
She studies how much she can do
For her sweet little sisters and brother,
IL you want n companion for life,
To comfort, cnliycn and bless,
She is just the right sort for wife,
My girl with the calico dress.

Whiskey Root.

| RANCHO NEAR CORPUS CRIsrA, Texas,
Sept 10, lS57--My Dear Pic.--Some time
ago / wrote you that there was such a
thing in this country as "whiSkey root"
YOU disbelievcd / now take my revenge
10y sending you the specimen. 1t is. what
the indians call "Pie-o- -ke." 1t grows +,
Southern Texas on the range Of sand hills
bordering on the Rio Grande and in gray
el, sandy soil. The Iudians eat it for its
exhilarating effect on the system, produc.
ing precisely the same as alcoholic drinks.
1t is sliced as you would cucumber, and
these small pieces chewed, the juice swal-
lowed, and in about the sam time as CON.
fortably tight cock tails would "sir tho d.
vinity" within you, this indicates itself
only its effects are what | might term n
little more ia r-o-r-t-t-,,-g, giving rather n
wilder scope t. he imaguatious and ac-
tions. 1t can be sliced aud dried, and in
this way the Indians preserve it,thcn parch
and serve it up us coffee or tea. 1t is evi.
IDENTIFY of cactus spccies and it resembles
that moro than any other plaut. | have
never seen this particular root mentioned
in any work, aud believe Lhese--and spiel

Cultivator-to be the specimens sent from
the State. wish YOU would have these

do this myself but for two reasons-lst. |
bave no crucibos, chemical tests. or con.
veniences for accurately making !ho analy.
sis; and 81, even i'll had, don't know
how 10 do il.
This plant is suggestive of much rcfcc,
ton to the Southern man it is Southern
product, and as such I am disposed to pat.
ronize it.
From its growing only among the rocky
hills, its life is n hard one, and as such, Fm
disposed to sympathiSe with it.
1t being of home manufacture, we can
supply ourselves cheaper than sending to
the North or elsewhere.
And Just think of the advantage Of fcl-

decided improvement.

thus conveniently calculate from single
private individual up to whole family, or

1t is going to benefit the dealer; for il
