A silvery voice shout, Papa's tum."
Blithe rs bird, our darling boy
Would gather pleasure all day long
From flower, or leaf, or simple toy,
Or humming whilst his mimic song.
At eve the joyful feet would run.
The gladstone voice shout, Papa tuin"
But when the autumn-time drew on,
And frost the trees in gold had drest,
Our little flower, alas was COMO,
BY frost of death too rudely press
And ceased the pattering feet to run,
The gleeful shont of, "Papa's tum.
The little limbs are resting now,
The sunny head, too, is at rest,
And mother earth. with placid brow,
The little form folds on her breast.
No more the blithesome feet shall run;
The silvery voice shout, "Papa's tuni
But when the day of life is O. es,
And weary with It's toll and strife,
Oh. tell me when at Heavens door 49,
seek the rest of endless life,
Shall not hear the welcome homo,

OUR HOME INTERESTS.
S. I. Atkin. Manufacturer and Dealer In
Nsi 8 Lumher. -

| ksE - Lumber. ~
This is the Oldest establishment OF the
kind In the city. The business consists IN
| the manufacture and sale OF lumber, both
| finished and unfinished, connected with
which is a Sash and Blind Mandatory.
1t was one Of the first MANUFACTURES put
lin operation after the close of the late
war.
It IL unnecessary for Us to say any thing
personally about Mr.. Atkin. He is well
known by every man in this community.
He is enc of our self-msde men, having
grown up from the industrious apprentice
boy in timers shop, to one Of the most
successful business men In our communi-
ty. His success may be attributed to a
strong native intellect, an energy that
never backs down from difficulties, and a
close attention to business. He has proba
bly, contributed as largely to the general
success of our city as any other man.
The Sash and Blind mandatory is kept
constantly in operation and turns out
vast amount of work, which finds a mar
ket all over East Tennessee, as we'll as in
the States South of us.p
Mr.. Atkin is very largely engaged in
contracting and building, and has proba-
bly, put up more houses than any other
man in the city, having been engaged in
building in it's various branches for several
years.
In connection with the Sash and Blind
Factory he has fine saw mill, to which
he has recently added some valuable inn
provements, among which is one Of the
improved turbine water wheels, costing
more than l,eo0. Formerly the operations
Of his saw mill was frequently interferred
with by high water. BY the improves
ments made, this difficulty is obviated.
Being situated at the mouth of Frat
Creek, on the river, he has fine facilities
for procuring saw logs from up the river.
He now has about 200 logs in the river, land
has arrangements by which a supply il
kept constant. on hand. The saw mill
will cut about 10000 feet of lumber per
day. It is estimated that he has copsum-
ed and sold in the past year, about $780,
900 feet of lumber. In connection with the
business he has large dry kiln, capable of
of drying 10000 feet ef lumber per week.
enabling. him to keep dry lumber on hands
to be used IN the Sash, Blind and Door
and in his building opera
tons. No labor or expense is spared to
render the whole business successful in ev
cry respect.
He employs in the various departments
NJ his hucjnASs aho,,t fftv n nda WIN re-
ceive, upon an average, 500 per day.
Thus, twill DO seen, that quite a large
of our population derive en-
ployment and support from the business
Of Mr.. Atkins. He ispossessed of ample
means to make any additional improve
ments, or extension to his business, and
will do so whenever occasion requires.

Good people overy where will applaud
the act recorded Of Madame Gerolt, the
wife of the Prussian Minister at Washing

articles Of value that remained unsold at
the close of the recently held Prussian
fair, has authorized them to be transferred
to the managers of the fair at New York
for the beneft of thewidows, orphans and

idea of another ''groceri'' being established,

For shame, that one OF cur citizens coald
set up place designed for such base purposes
and what must be said, when il is even given a
legal sanction by the very head and front OF it

The sky is clouded, tho rocks are bare;
The spray of the tempest is white in air;
The winds are out with the waves at play,
And shall not tempt the sea to-day.

The panther ciings to the arching limb;
And shall not join in che chase to-day.

And the hunters came from the chase in glee;
And the town that was built upon a rock
