POETRY
Dance Light, for my Heart IL Lies Under
Your Feet, Love.


Your Feet, Love.
K" An sweet Kitty Neil, rise up from that wheel
Your neat little feet win be weary from spinning;
Come trip down with me to the sycamore tree
Half the parish is there, and the dance is beginning
\. The sun Is gone down. but the full harvest moon
Shines sweeily and cool on the dewwhitened valley
iwbile all the air rings with soft, loving things,
Each little bird sings in the green shaded alley"
kyith blush and smile, Kitty up the WHILE
Her eve in the glass; she bound her hair glancing
iris hard to refuse when young lover sues
so she couldn't but choose to go off to the dancing
And now on the green the glad groups are seen--
Each gay hearted lad with the lass of his choosing
And Pat, without fail leads sweet Kitty Neil
Somehow when he asked she ne er thought frefsng
Now. Felix Magee puts his pipes to his knee,
And with flourish free, sets each couple in motion
kynh cheer and bound the lads pater the ground
The maidens move around just like swans on the ocean
A,hccks bright as the rose--fect light as the does
Now coyly retiring now boldly advancing
search the world all round from the sky TO the ground,
No such sight can be found liish lass dancing
sweet Kate! who could view your brighteyes of deep
4 blue,
Beaming humdly through their dark lashcs so mildly,
N our fair turned arm. heayng breast rounded form,
Nor feel his heart warm and his pulses tlrob wildly
III Dung Pat feels his heart as he gazes, depart,
Subdued by the of such painful yet sweet love
Hhe sight leaves his eyes, as he cries with sigh
"Danee eht for my heart lies undr your feet lore "

0Y A cart passed through our town
this morning, from Montgomery county,
drawn by a no-horned one-eyed steer and
a sway-backed bob-tailed bull. In the
cart were two men, who walk on cruteh-
es, one of them having only one leg, and
woman with a " diseasement," reading
the Montgomery Mail, and a three-legged
dog following in the rear. They stopped
a few moments and recruited their "spir-
it's" and passed on.- Troy Ameyica@.
