A Georgia paper says that some
farmers there who formerly cultivat-
ed fifty acres of land and got an equal
number of bales of cotton, get an
equal amount now from twenty
acres. They prepare the land and
cultivate better than formerly, and
their products are increased thereby
at much less expense.

THE RIVERS SONG.
By CHARLES k1sGsLEr.


Clear and cool, clear and cool,
By laughing, shallow, and dreaming pool;
Cool and clear, cool and clear,
And rhining shingle, and foaming weeri
Under the crag where the ouzel sings,
Aud the ivied wall where the church bell rings.
Undehled for the undeiledi
Play by me, bathe BY me, mother and child,
Dauk and foul. dank and fnnl,
By the smoky town in its murky coWl;
Foul and dsnk, foul and dauk,
By wharf and sewer and Shiny bank;
Darker and darker tho further 20,
Baser ami haser the richar grow;
Who dare sport with the sin def!ed?
Shrink from me, turn from me, mother and child
Strong aud free, strong and free,
The h,od gates open, away to the sea
Free and strong, free and strong,
Cleansing my streams rs hurry along;
To tho golden sands and leaping bar,
Aud the taintless tide that awaits me af,r,
As I lose myself in the Infamous main,
Like soul that has sinnsd and is pardoned again
Undehied for the nudeRled,
Play by me, battle in me. mother and child.

Poetry.
InHN EIrrLHIOHN.

John LittIejohn was Staunch and strong,
Upright and downright, scorning wrong.
He gave good weight, and paid his way,
He thought for himself, and be said his say.
Whenever rascal strove to pass,
Instead Of silver, money Of brass,
He took his hammer, and said, with frOwn,
''The coin lsspurious, nail it down."
John LittIeJohn was arm and true,
You could not cheat him IN "two and two,'
When foolish arguers might and main,
DaTkened andstwistsd the clear aud plain,
He saw through the mazes Of their speech
The simple trnth beyond their reach;
Aud crushing their logic, said, with frOwn,
''Your coin is spurious, nail It down.
John Littlejohn maintained the right.
Through storm and shine in the worlds despite;
When fools or quacks desired his vote,
Dosed him with arguments learned by rote,
Or by cosEing, threats, or promise, tried
To gain his support TO the wrongful side,
'Eay, nay" said John, with an angry frown,
"Your coin is spurious, nail it down."
When told that kings had right divine,
And that the people were herds Of swine,
That mobiles alone were fit to rule,
That the poor were unimproved by schools,
That ceaseless toll was the proper fate
or all but the wealthy aud the great,
John shook his head and said with a frown,
''1be coin Is spurious, nail it down.
When told that events might justify
false and crooked policy,
That decent hope OF future good
Might excuse departure from reetitude,
That lie, If white, was a small offence,
To be forgiven by men Of sense,
''Nay, nay" said John, with sigh and frown,
"The coin is spurious, nail It down.

Miscellaneous.
Anthony TrOIIOpe's View of the
American Girl.

AulMOME AFOIAODe' q NHGW Oh the
American Girl.
In America girl may form friendly in
timacy with any young man she fancies,
and though she may not be free from little
jests and good-humored joking, there is no
injury to her from such intimacy. 1t is
her acknowledged right to enjoy herself aG-
ter that fashion, and have what she calls
good time with young men. A dozen
such intimacies do not stand in her way
when there comes some real adOrer who
means to marry her and is able to do so.
She rides with these friends, walks with
them, and corresponds with them. She
goes out to balls and pic MICS with them,
and afterward let's herself in with latch
key, while her papa and mamma are abed
and asleep, with perfect security. If there
be much to be said against the practice,
there is also something to be said for it.
Girls on the continent of Europe, on the
other hand, do not dream of making
friendship with any man. A cousin with
them is as much ont of the question as the
most perfect stranger. In strict families a
girl is hardly allowed to go out with her
brother, and have heard of mothers who
thought it indiscreet that father should
be seen alone with his daughter at the
ater. All friendships between the sexes
must, under such a social code, be looked
forward TO as post-nuptial joys. Here in
England there is something betwixt the
two. The intercourse between young men
and girls is free enough to enable the lat
ter to feel how pleasant it is to be able to
forget, for a while, conventional restraints,
and to acknowledge how joyous thing it
is TO indulge in social intercourse in which
the simple delight of equal mind meeting
equal mind in equal talk is just enhanced
by the unconscious remembrance that
boys and girls, when they meet together,
may learn to love. There is nothing more
sweet in youth than this, nothing more
natural, nothing more ftting-nothing, in
deed, mere essentially necessary for Gods
purposes with his creatures. Nevertheless,
here with us, that is the restriction. and it
is seldom that a girl can allow herself the
full flow of friendship with man not old
enough to be her father, unless he is her
lover as well as her friend.

JUDGE KELLEY, of Philadelphia,
fully understanding that the people
will insist en- modification Of the
present tariff, hopes to continue the
present unjust features OF the law by
proposing to strike out the duties on
q large number of articles not pro
duced IN this couatry, and let those pro-
visions of the law which sustain the
present salt, lumber and coal monopo
lies remain unimpaired. This dodge
will hardly deceive anybody. What
the people want is a revenue tariff,
and they will insist that the tariff on
those articles from which the Gov
ernment now derives no bsne-
ft whatever, shall be the first to
come down. There would be little
good sense in removing the tariff from
articles which now yield good reve-
nue., and let the duty remain on arti-
cles whose importation is virtually
prohibited by that duty. The people
expect to be taxed to support the
Government, and have no objection
to paying the tax 10 the form of du
ties on imports. But they will no
longer consent to be taxed for the
benefit of class or classes under the
pretense Of paying revenue to the
| Government.

THE Cincinnati Southern Railroad
is in danger of being defeated at the
very outset by the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Corporation.
That wealthy organization has in
duced the Tennessee Legislature to
refuse charter giving the right of
way through that State, or, at least,
the indications all point that way. If
the Louisville people are influential
enough to control the Tennessee
Legislature, it is quite likely that
they will have still more power in the
Kentucky Legislature, and that a
charter will also be refused by that
body. This iIIiberal policy on the
part Of the Legislatures of those two
States, materially enhances the value
of our road South. AS we have DEM
onstrated heretofore, it is a competing
line with the Louisville Road, for
Eastern freights and passengers, while
for all travel between the South and
Northwest, it has no competitor.
May the day soon come when it will
be finished.
