POETRY
Blue Eyes.


Let others sing Of raven hair,
And eyes where night doth glow;
Bat give 70 me . hue more fair,
- win blue eyes bright below;
within their melting light I'll roam
Away from sorrows train,
'xsd And ~ heart = lovins homo ~
Whore JOY shall bloom again.
The cash Of woundIns wi. may not
Surround each wave Of light twl
But love has made iss resting spo,
Within thoss blue eyes bright;
And feeling feathers every glance
That rushes to the heart,
And sends sweet enticing trance
With svery Tying dart.

Il The most sensible proposition we
have seen for q long time is that Of
the Lexington (Nfiss.) 4dsertise-, to
start a little factory with a capital Of
50, 800. II says Il p folly to wait
until $50, 900 or 100000 can be got
1T may never be gathered. It SAYS:
IA factory (costing the insignifi-
can't amount We have named can
rrd all the wool in the county, make
Lowells and domestics to supply
three times our population, and with
y gin attached could gin all the
gleanings of the great staple at a
figure that would immediately super
sede horsepower. We have in our
community o sentIsman Of rscog-
nized genius, Of an inventive turn q

machinery, who, t6r : moderate CON-
psnsation, could be induced to take
charge Of the business Of such fac
tory, and cOhduct Il to the grandest
|rcsults possible to be attained"
When our Hazlehurst friends, a
year or two ago, were trying to start
. factory and stopped short becaass
the sum Of 100000 could not be
raised, we told them to have q dog
power fictory II they could get no
etha. Indeed, every 5000 acres ol
cultiYssed lsnd should have is one
gin and cotton hctory combined, and
In would Be al the better II the

weaving at home on the improved
looms Of the day. Small plantations
