POETRY.
A Paraphrase of the Psalm XIX.
BY MRS. s. e. STETSON.

The heavens are telling the glory
Of God with their VOICE, Master
The armament showefh the
His handi work choice. aotetb
And day unto day ever
PronOuncing his PA pr. ,Invyeth knovledpe
Revealing nI,stl hl no sound of their language
10 smite on the ear,
,r,are cometh no noise to be hearkened
Yet send they clear
Proclamation, gone out through the earth,
And their words are out-burled
To ceave through the distance remotest,
The ends of the world.
In the heaven the sun hath pavilion.
How glorious his face
When proud he comes forth like bridegroom
He joys in the race
Like the swift-footed man who outrunneth,
And winneth the prize,
So glad he sets forth on his Journey,
And measures the skies;
From end unto end OF the heavens
On moves he i'll might;
And naught from his heat can be hidden,
And naught from his light.
The law of the Lord is perfect.
Converting the soul.
The heart may rejoice in his statutes,
For right shall controh
The word of the Lord is sure,
The simple makes wise.
The command OF the Lord is pure,
Eulightening the eyes.
The fear of the Lord Is un1auing'
Enduring forever;
And righteous and true are his Judgments,
And Wavering never.
These things are more worthy the winning
Than gold of the mine.
More sweet to the taste than honey
In honey-comb fine.
By them is thy servant admonished
From evil, o Lord!
Then colleth q jOy in their keepinp
Then cometh reward.
Whoe'er can behold his own error?
o Lordi let thy ray
Explore all my dark-hidden evil
And cleanse it away;
And keep me afar from presumption,
That striveth to reign.
From the great transgression, oh! save me.
The woe and the pain.
If the light that is in me be darkness,
Oh! keep me upright.
Let the words of my mouth be acceptable
Lord, in thy sight.
The thought and the wish of my soul
Be accepted by thee.
o Lord my strength, my redeemer,
Redeem, strengthen me!

A Southern journal tells us that over
14o. 700 people arc withca. feed aad
shelter in the South, and that the
floods have robbed them OF all but
life. First the war, then the carpet
bag domination and now the floods.
Never in history were people SO se-
verely punished. Can we not do
som ething to relieve their burdens,
something more than to sing hymns
and strew flowers over Confederate
graves on Decoration Day?

IMPORTANT. If True If tho figures
GO are divided by the 6otton crop in
millions of bnles, the result will give
the average price per pound at the
nearest market. Thus, the crop raised
is
2 million bales. 60. 30 cents per H.
3 million bales, 60. 20 cents per ID
million bales, 60, Is cents per ib
S million bales, 60. IL cents per ID i.
It will TINS be seen that under the
ordinary circu instances, million bales
OF cotton are AS valuable to the pla nter,
and will bring as much money as can
be obtained fer 4, or even million
bales. A small crop is increased in va
lue by speculation. A large crop is
reduced in value by any disturbance of
the money market. or by wor, pesti-
lence or famine. The surplus land can
be proatably occupied in producing
pork, corn and hay, without reducing
the value OF the cotton crop one dol
lar. Try it.-G. Aliens Circular.
