THE POETS CORNER,
Don't be i'm q Hurry to Sc

Come boys, have something to tell you
Come here, would whisper it low;
You're thinking Of leaving the homestead
Don't be in . hurry to go.
The city has many ATTRACTIONS,
But think Of the vices and sins,
When once in the vortex Of fashion,
How soon the course downward begins
Yon talk of the mines of Australia,
They're rich IN treasures no doubt,
But ali, thera IN gold in the farm, boys,
If only you'll shovel it out.
The mercantile life is q hazard,
The goods are first high and then low,
Better risk the old farm awhile longer
Don't be in q hurry to go.
The great busy West has inducements,
And SO has the busiest mart,
But wealth was not made IN day, boys,
Don't be in hurry to start.
The banker and broker are wealthy
They take in their thousands or So
All, think of their frauds and deeeptions
Don't be in hurry to go.
The farmis the safest and surest;
The orchards are loaded to-day;
You are free as the air of the mountain,
And monarch of all you survey.
But stay on the farm while longer,
Though profits come in rather slow,
Remember you've nothing to risk, boys
Don't be in a hurry to go.

Home.

Ihaye Travelled Ger the spacious earth,
For many and many year;
have been in lands where art and wealt
Their monuments uprear.
Though sights undreamed Of met my eye
Wherever did roam,
My thoughts, despite Of all saw,
Would wander back to home.
] hare been to kingly palaces,
Where all thsst wealth could buy
At every turn, where'er looked,
Did meet my 'wildred eye.
But even there, mid king and peer,
Beneath that golden dome,
Vnsatisfied, my prisoned soul
Would wander back to home.
have been within the festive hall,
Where all was joy and light;
Where magic song and festive dance
Fell Oh my ear and sight.
But even there, mid that gay throng,
My soul away would roam.
And like q bird from bondage free,
Would wander back to home.
l've sought for glory on the field
Of fierce and bloody strife
In search Of fame I've freely spent
The best years Of my life.
But even mid these stirring scenes
One thought to me would come,
And then my soul, on fancy's wings,
Would wander back to home.

The Louisiana Central Railroad.

Amid the whirl OF contending polit-
ical parties, there is some consolation
in knowing that our Legislators have
a care for something both useful and
practical. For years the people of the
Red River valley have labored under
the most disheartening disadvantages,
in reference to travel and the trans
portation of freight. It is almost
needless to expatiate or the subject.
Every citizen in this vicinity and along
the alluvial lands of the Red River
valley, knows full we'll how they have
BEEN situated during the past year.
Without transportation, without pro-
visions, it almost seemed as if the peo-
pie would starve for the want of food.
Prices were ruinous, breadstuff scarce,
mills out Of order and this whole sec
ton without the means Of a passable
subsistence. Under these circumstan-
ces it was to have been expected that
the people and their representatives
would turn their attention to more
permanent and durable method of
transportation than that afforded by
the uncertainty Of water in Red
River.
What has been the result? Imme-
diately upon the heels of the recog-
milton Of the Kellogg government, BY
the United States Senate, is passed a
bill incorporating the Louisiana Cen
trail Railroad, whose ultimate bene-
fits no man now living can estimate.
Of the advantages possessed by rail-
roads, In this section. it is useless to
surmise, argue or reason. The peo-
pie are thoroughly competent to judge
of these matters. They know full
well how they have suffered, in the
past. Still this bill Incorporating the
Central Road asks naught Of the citi-
zens save the right Of ,cay. There are
men at the head Of it who are gentle
men in the fullest Specification of the
term; men of brain: men Of intellect;
men Of capital and energy. Such
this country needs, such should they
have.
There are men now at work on this
proposed road who will not falter or
fail. Ere another twelve months go
by the hoarse scream OF the locomo olive
will be sounded in our ears, and we
will be in direct communication with
New Orleans, the great tllrobbing
heart Of our inland commercial bust
ness.
Laugh in scorn, says the skeptic,
but VIC tell him this is a certainty,
and there are men who are now bend
ing their energies to work out the
problem Of internal improvements, in
this benighted section Of our State.
Let the good work go on and every
citizen in this section support meas
ure which will undoubtedly conduce
to the material wealth of our section.
True blue" are those who advocate
the welfare of the people. Hence

prevailed in all ages of the world.

The Economy of Health. Only
those who have investigated the subject can
be aware OF the enormous waste caused by
| sickness aud unhygienio living. By adopting
the Hygiene system, the people Of the Unit

one thousand millions Of dollars. Does this
statement seem eXtravagant! Statistics
more than justify it, as we shall prove.

THE ILLUSTRATED
PSYCHOLOGICAL JOURNAL.
Volume Fiftv.Sfx

The Science of Mind is the centra
point around which rcvolye the whole circle
Of science. It is the key to universal knowi
edge, and Self knowledge is the key to the
Science OF Mind.
PhrenolOgy is the demonstrable basis
yersities Of human character and capacity
are related to the laws # the universe; har
monies the human being with the Divine
land iustifies the ways OF God to man"
ssKnOw Thyself.'' Since the Gre
clan sage inscribed these immortal words on
the Temple of Adelphi, the world has strug
sled as never before towards solution Of
the problems of the human existence
The Correlation of Forces, now
an established fact, has furnished an endur:
ing basis for all the material sciences. and
brought each of the tremendous powers OF
nature-Hcat, Light, Electricity, Magnetisn'
and attraction, within the domain Of law
and order.
The origin of Races, still earnest
~ discussed by 7Ethnologists, is bringing
light out of the shadows Of the past, and can
not fail to interest the truth-seeker.
The Origin of Life, still more in
tricate problem, is actively engaging the
minds Of ourleading Psychologists. The re-
suits will be given in this Journal
Physiology and Psychology will
be prominent features; embracing the sub
jects of Soul, Mind, Bodily Structures and
Functions, Social Relations. Education. Reli-
gious Creeds, Marriage, Training of Children,
Criminal Jurisprudence, etc.
PhysiOglOmy and Tempera.
mems, Signs of Character, Peculiarities OF
Organization, Transmissions of Mental and
Bodily Qualities, etc. given.
Se1f.1mprOvelMeM are all
the teachings of science and the marvels of
art, unless applied to perfecting ourselves
and improving the. race. It is for this we
live, move, and have our being" and to
this result The chronological journal will
tend.
Happy Homes are the result of a
normal education and development, and o
life according to the laws Of life. These are
the symbols Of all that is good in the Is life to
come" and the real Heaven on Earth
The PhrenOlQgicul journal
for 1873 will keep pace with the march of
events. and while .sholding fast to the good, y
will cndeavor to lead the public mind in
many things new and true.
