This is what man gets for being too
literal in New York. He was drunk, and
wore exceedingly muddy boots. Having
passed before carpet store in the Bowery,
about the entrance of which on the side
walk was a tempting array of plain and
fancy door mats, he read the entreaty on
one of them, "Please wipe your feet,' and
then proceeded nonchalantly to comply
with the request. An indignant proprietor
pushed him into the muddy street; police
man placed him on his feet, then dubbed
him down again in the most approved
fashion, and finally carried him to the Po-
lice station.

A LITTLE MORE BACKBONE WANTED,

There is great number of weakened
men who belong to the Republican party,
especially in the country parishes. They
are very fond of writing to the Governor
or the REPUBLICAN long and dolorous
accounts Of outrages real or imaginary,
which have been inflicted upon them by
their neighbors. We sometimes comply
with their earnest requests to publish
their letters, in doing which, we of course,
give names, localities and dates. By the
time the REPUBLICAN goes out with these
letters, the 'taxpaying citizens" as those
young chaps are called who eat the bread
OF their relatives all the year round, wait
upon the writer's and make them sign a
denial that they ever. wrote ANYTHING IN
the subject to anybody, especially to the
REPUBLICAN. We wish to saw to such
gentlemen that if they have not the mauu-
ness to stand by what they say, they had

The Vicksburg Herald apologies to the
New Orleans Bulletin for crediting to that
paper an article taken from our columns.
1t also apologies, in the same issue, to
the Summit Sentinel for crediting wrong
fully an article to the Summit Republican.
The .Heralds custom of crediting every
thing to some source is honest and COM
mendable. That it occasionally takes
matter from intelligent Republican
papers, and gives the praise to Democratic
and "We the white people" sheets, is,
perhaps, after all, an error of the paste-pot
and scissors rather than of the heart.

IN THE SPRING TINE


A child crept out from a cottage door,
Where shadows played on the sanded door
She snatched the flowers iu her hands So wet
Laughing aloud In her innocent glee.
She threw the blossoms, 30 tender aud fair,
And they lodged, as they fell, in the rings o
her hair.
Play ing about in the green, green grass,
Kissed by the zephyrs that over her pass,
Dear little baby sweet prattling thing
Lifc's tender spring. time in Natures gla,
spring.
A girl danced out in the morning dew,
Away where the trst sweet W lid flowers grew
Her hair fell free, and her happy song
Went back witn the breez re as she trpped along
She was Drowned by the sun and her heart wa
gay,
And glad as the birds that bright spring day,
Her hat, by It's azure ribbons hung,
Across her arm she gaily swung,
And In ii she dropped each bloomy bit,
As from lis stem she gathered Ii.
How the years 20 by Another spring ''-
Has come to us on Times fleet wing
And there stands before me maiden fair!
Bright bushes play Ger the sweet young face,
oh seek not TO hide them, veil of lace
Her little hand, in its snowy glove,
Rests In palm whose clasp is love;
And two young hearts to the silvefy chime
VI the same love-tuue are besting time.
Myithoughts 60 on as the two stand there,
Promising good and III 10 share
And what TO them OF veal or woe
The years will bring, fsin would know,
Will the world keep bright, meath the magic
spell
That charms them now All, who eau tell
When Time has stolen the tender grace
Of youth away from the malden's face,
When their lives sppring time has passed
away,
La their hearts may its freshness ever stay,
