Stick by the Old Land:

We have, on several occasions, when the
prospects for the people of the South were
very dark after the close of the war. and
when Brazilian, Venezuelan and Mexican EN-,
igration societies were urging the people OF
the South to seek to better tbeir fortunes in
those countries, uttered our convictions that
the better, and certainly the most patriotic
course, was to stay at home and aid IN the
noble work of retrieving the losses the war
brought on the South. In this position we
were sustained ~ General Hampton and 9TH
er true Southerners.
We have now another evidence that we
were right. The Hon. Robert Toombs is now
an exile in Havana, but Mrs. Toombs has re-
Gently visited Georgia, and says that her hus-
bands advice to the young men of the South
is, that they remain athome, as he consider
ed the Southern States much preferable to
Brazil, Mexico or Cuba, He very truly says
that their strength and energies are paIticu-
lar rly needed at this time to rebuild the shat
tered fortunes Of their section. This, added
to the fact that tbeiro own couu-ry is just as
good il not better tLan the countries named
for making livelihood or competency. ought
and doubtles will decide many, whose misfor-
tunes prompted them to think Of emlgrating
to stay at home.
Mr.. Toombs is wise, experienced and pa
triotic gentleman, and one having the vel
fare of the South at heart, Fiis words are
those of wisdom, and should be needed ac-

The motion of tho District Attorney is
therefore granted. This Court will adjourn

1t would be September, but September is

Cottage and Hall.
Baby has crept to his sheltering nest,
Now that the dny is done.

Baby has crept to his sheltering nest,
Now that the duy is done,
And with wee head pillowed upon my breast
Has gone to sleep with the sun.
Roses and -dimples are buried quite
Under the snow of my bosom white,
And over my heart creeps ringlet bright
A beautiful golden one.
Daby is king in our humble cot,
Enthroned in our hearts sits be; Z.
And mover king had merrier lot
w Than baby, it seems to me. :.
For love in his presence waiting stands,
With trenulous feet and willing hands,
Ready to fly as each whim commands,
And his humble slave to be.
Baby is heir to no title old,
Nowhere hoared away
Are deeds of acres and heaps Of gold, -
Which are to he his enc day,
But his is a-heritage better than fame,
The we'll earned wealth of an honest name,
Which never has known the brand of shame
God grant II never may.
So when my household tasks are o'er,
And baby, tired is he,
I sit down here in the cottage door,
In the shade of giant tree,
And watch where the broad road winds ava
Till somebody GENES through the gloomy graz,
And loving hand IN my own doth lay,
And kisses baby and me.
There's rich mans mansion over theway,
And through the curtains of lace
Isaw, in the arms Of its nurse to-day,
A babe with q weo pale face.
And I saw through tears, what Isaw besid,
For not all the trappings of wealth and price
The little mishappen form could hide,
Nor clothe it with simple grace.
And lady oft at the window stands,
have dreamed of those as fair;
/. But wonder if ever the jcweled hands
The gems of affection wear,
Or the golden curls, over her brow which stray,
Are ever for kisses brushed away;
Her husband has other loves they say,
And his heart has homo elsewhere.
So love to sit in the cottage door
With baby upon my knee,
And count to my heart the blessings Ger
Which have gilded my life for me;
For there's many heart which knoweth not
The joys and loves of my humble lot,
And would rather be queen Of simple Get,
Than n lady of high degree.
