The homestead.

In an admirable speech recently delivered
at Gainesville, Georgia, Bob Toombs made
plea in behalf Of the homestead law-tho
wiscst provision ever madc by o Radical
Legislature in this State. Now and then
the homestead serves as q cover for rascaity,
but all in all, it is a most just and humane
provision for the protection of those VIII

Since laid thco down to rest,
And saw them heap the cold, damp earth
Upon thy faithful breast.
Il month! oh! SORROW counts not thus,
But through its binding tcars,
The hours arc days, and lengthcned days,
The weeks and months arc gears.
Oh! Mary, could thy spirit puro
Ono rnng of sorrow know;
Or ought that passes here below,
Make tears of angels flow,
Thouwouldst have in this long, long month,
Whate'er thy glory be.
Lave tcit that pang and shed those tears
Mywiic, my love, for me.
I'm all alone. come and 90,
And have no single heart

Or gricye when l depart.
No l"ngcr now when nearing homo,

No waiting one with kind!ing eve,
VIII thank me for my speed.
All, ne! tho loneliness I felt,
When on thy coffin lid,
] heard the cold cluds rattle down,
That soon my treasure hid;
10 what l since have known,
A loneliness which with each day;
Has saaly, sadly grcwr:
Pvo tried to cheat tbs poor, lone heart;
by placing still thy chair,
My Mary, in our little room;
AZ you still wero thero.
Your basket and your work stand, too;
Have still there samo old place;
Your Bible, yes, all else ia there,
Except your deur, dear faco.
strive to think that thou ,cU come,
And even now art near,
And thy familiar step I'll soon
Upon tho doorstep hear.
'Tis all in vain, there still returns
The stern, dark, dreary truth.
That she, the fond and faithful wife,
The sweet bride of my youth,
Is Como, is deaf. aoW not return,
My bursting heart bo still.
Oh God! give comfort in tho thought,
tis thy holy will.
Yotsomctimes in my dreams, Mary,
SEQ thee there once moro;
kiss thy cheek and clasp thy hand,
AS oft in days of yoic,
And l must hope and will beleyo,
That thou art lowering near,
My mnisterng angel sent

And will over meet thee, love,
And will this anguish ceasel
And shall over share with thee

For faith, for lovo, for light to shine
Upon my darkoncd way.
My thoughts oft wander from my God,
And too plainly SEQ,
When should seek most fcrvcntly,
Pm thinking most Of thee.
Yet, Mary, have often woke,
Late in tho lonely night
And found thee With thy Bible, love,
Beside tho glimmcrng light;
Or ofton in tho midnight gloom,
Upon thy Bonded kneo,
Have heard thoo pleading, darling,
SO earnestly for mo.

Those prayers will answer, love,
And fit me for reunion blost,
