EDS. GATE CRY You are mistaken in
stating that no appraisement bill was passed
by the Legislature. The Senate substituted
bill in place of the one passed by the House,
and that afterwards became law. Of this
the writer has the assurance of Mr.. Hedges,
q member of the House, and Mr.. Thompson,
the Senator from Scott county. The bill
prohibits the sale of any property, real or
personal, except at, or over two-thrds its
appraised value. The Sheriff selects one
appraiser, the debtor one, and the two thus
selected select third.
In case the debtor fails to select an APP
praiser within certain time, the selection
10 made by the Sheriff. An appraisement
may be effected every six months at the debt
or's expense, and as often as the creditor
wishes, provided in case Of failure to sell,
he pays bis own expenses. A debtor is linn
tied to the appraissment remedy, unless he
elects redemption, and then he is confined to
the redemption now provided BY law. A
sale after appraisement is foal. and the Sher-
id Immediately executes deed.

The LATHE girl Shat Meets mae.
There 3 little girl that meets me,
And with laughter ever grects me,
And to kiss her Oft entrsats me,
Az stray
Long the path oil life, 80 dreary,
Where the saddensd heart, and weary,
Shades the sunlight, shining near me,
On my way.
She has eyes as blue as Heaven;
Only aged about eleven;
But unto her God has given
Such heart
That forever she ie singing.
And heFswect voice ever ringing,
Beauty Ger the wrapt heart bringing,
Sweet az art.
With her sunny hair 30 curly,
with her teeth so white and pearly,
have met her late and early
BY the way
And take her hand and press Ii
In my own, just TO caress it
Pretty little hand---God bless IL"
/ do say.
May the world smile kindly on her.
Benedictions fall upon her,
Angels be her guard of honor,
As che goes
Through this world Of ours, singing,
Peace to troubled spirits bringing,
No grief her poor heart wringing
With its woes.
May the sweetest harp in Heaven
Brightest star that e'er was given,
Where the waves of life are driven
Past the throne
Echo to her dainty finger,
Pom her pure brow ever linger,
While each angel is singer,
Calling home.
