for his refusal to save the Union Trust
Company at the commencement. In five

panic at an earlier date are fully persua-
ded that this dispensation is quite equit-
able.

street to guard against surprise; so, when
Montana poked his pistol around ehe corner
and followed it with just enough OF his head to

This last was fatal error, for with tall post

of the shooting, which in reality was very. soon
over. They fired three shots apiece IN as
many seconds Toms third ball passed
through Montana's heart, and he was dead
before his head rebounded on the brick pave

and was kept in Jail until his trial came on
although bail to any amount was offered.
After a pause, the Judge added: :! don't see
how I could have done more for him than 1

The Columbus (Ga.) Sun states that Ex::Gov.
Joseph E. Brown has erected beautiful and
costly monument to his son, Franklin Pierce
Brown, recently deceased. The great loss sus.
tanned by the early death of this excellent and
promising youth may be inferred from remark
made concerning him by the Hon. Alexander
81. Stephens, as follows "Such a prodigy Of
intellect and virtue in body so frail I never
met. with in any other human form, and never
expect to, if were to live thousand years"
These words, which might be applied with
equal force to the distinguished author, are in
scribed upon the monument of young Brown.

PERSEVERANCE.

Young man, toiling on Obscurely,
Struggling 'gainst an adverse tide.
With a high and honest purpose
W hlch the mocking world deride;
Faint not, feaI not, brave the current,
Face the tide, however rude;
Truth will triumph, thou wilt conquer,
God will ne'er forsake the good.
Do the proud deride thy calling
Mock thine efforts at the start,
With scoIIing coldness CALLING
To thy proud and honest heart?
PerseVere! Attain station
" lth the gifted and the great;
Those who now scoIn thy vocation,
Then viii gladly kiss thy feet.
Has the venomcd breath of SANDER,
On thy lonely name been blown,
From the serpent soul Of envy
That would keep the worthy down?
Persevcrc with manly patience,
Time will heal the wound you feel,
From thy name such taint will vanish
AS the breath from FURNISHED steel.
For encouraging example,
Scan the names Oh history's page,
Those who most their race have honOred,
Giving glory to theiJ age;
Names OF Newton and OF Franklin,
And a hundred mo!e as bright,
Names that gain increasing glory
With the world's increasing light.
Perscvcre! Unceasing effort
Humble though, and weak it be,
May . 'ercome whate er opposes,
And work miracles for thee
BE assured reward Will follow,
Good Will come to him who dclveS,
Honest industry Will prosper
Heaven helps those who help themselves
