WATER LILIES.


wandered once through garden bowers
All gemmed with jasmine and with SPRAYS
OF coral buds, while gorgeous flowers
Bent DER the lesf-strewn fragrant ways
Yet none were fair, their heavy scent,
Their brilliant bloom, confused the m'no'
Nv heart kept asking, IS went,
Tor something of purer kind
4 bush Of roses full and grand,
Held me TO view its burden sweet
While an unseen but blessed hand
Laid a fair offering at my feet
Soft trailing buds, half hid in green,
With glisiening Jewels overwrought-
The beauty that my mind had seen,
The puieness that my heart had sought
Fresh water lilies, dainty white,
All cleaning through veil Of dew;
Thev seemed . vision to my sight,
Yet breAthed language that knew
Through many day these lilies bright
Have waited fragrance o 'er my way
And in the dsi kness of the night
Their whiteness makes il vet seem day.
Oh, may the hand that gave them me
BE ever laid on what is fair.
And seeking naugh' but purity,
Yet be alert 10 do, and dare
And may the lilies Of this life
Within lis reach forever bloom,
And hsrdships, sorrow, toll, and strife
Remain beyond in midnight gloom

SPRING DAYS.

Down where the wake.robin springs from its slnm
bers,
Openlng its cardinal eye to the sun,
Come the du II echoes OF far away thuDdtrs,
Heavy and fast as the shots of gun.
Up on the hill where the wild flowers nestle,
Like new-fsllen stars on the green, messy
strand,
There comes the dead notes of the hOnse-clesn-
log pesle-
The sound of the carpet is heard.
Up for the song birds their mathis are singing
Up for the morning is tintiDg the skies;
Up! foi the good wife the switches is bringing
Out to the line where the hall carpet flies,
Up aud away for the carpet is dusty;
Fly for the house. cleaning days have begun;
RIM for the womanly temper is crusty;
Up and be doing, lest ye be undone
Late-late-too late just one moment of snor-
He wakes to the sound of the tumult below;
Ger the beating Of pets be hears voice roar
ing,
Breakfast was over three house ago.
See he is plunged in the front Of the battle;
Where the dust is the ,hcke,, they tell him to
stand.
Where sads. mops and scrub brushes spstter and
rattle,
And the sound of the carpet is heard in the
land. II Burlington llawkeye.

THE EXCHANGE
Voc. 4. NO. L.

After three years of hard work,
part of the time with greatencourage-
ment, and another part Of the
time with much uneasiness, the
EXCHANGE starts this week on its
fourth year. We are happy to be-
lieve that the paper has given general
satisfaction to its readers; at least we
Judge so from the fact that nearly all
our old subscribers remain with us,
and a steady flow Of new ones contin>
ues TO come in. We have endeavered
in the past (and will in the FUTURE to
publish a live home newspaper, paying
special attention to matters of town,
county and state interests. During
political campaigns we have stood by
the colors of the Democracy, because
we believe the success of that party will
rebound to the happiness and prosper
ity of the whole country. But, while
fighting in that cause, we have been
willing to allow every man the priyi-
lege of talking and voting for whom
he pleased. We are not in favor of
prosecuting a man because he cannot
agree with US. We are utterly OPP
posed to "bull doing" in politics or
religion, and desire to see our people
work harmoniously. together in the
building up of cur town and country.
The elections are over; now let US all
drop politics and 60 to work. 1t will
not do any good, and may do much
harm, to stand around saloons and on
street corners discussing what we can
not change. We Democrats have
been badly defeated-by fair means
or foul-and cannot help ourselves
just now. Keep cool. Keep quiet,
and reserve your ammunition until the
next election. Then we will do the
best we can to turn the tables Oh them.
Until that time the EXCHANGE pro
poses to be the organ Of all who have
the interests of Milan and surround
ing country at heart. Let us all pull
together.

the case everywhere, we fear that the

old standby, viii this time be a fails

Brownsville States: The people of
Haywood, Lauderdale, Upton, Fay
cite and Hardeman are clamorous for
the reopening of Hatchie riverto nav
igation, as a much>needed protection
against railroad monopolies and ex-
tortions, and they will nos be satisfied
if it is not secured during the present
session of the Legislature. The
counties enumerated above raise and
ship at least fifty thousand bales of
cotton annually, on the lands in easy
reach of Hatchie river. The average
cost Of shipment per bale, on the rail
road, is S2.25. This amounts to
S112, 800. If Hatchie river were
open, the cost would not exceed S1.00
per bale, or an aggregate of $4,000,
which would be a saving of $50, 500.
The saving in return freights would
amount to perhaps $4,000.

Gen. Atkins, in the Congressional
Democratic caucus last Friday con-
tended that il was the duty of the
Democrats to prevent the counting in
of Hayes at all hazards. lie held that
this could be done under the forms Of
law, that the Electoral biii was framed
by the Republicans 80 as to afford
them the opportunity Of defeating the
counting in Of Hayes if the Tribunal
decided against them. They had vio-
lated the spirit Of the law, had violated
their plighted faith by assuring the
Democrats that the law as framed
provided for an investigation Of the
Florida and Louisiana frauds, and
then the very msn who said this on
the floor Of the Senate and House
voted in the commission to prevent
an investigation.

4 Sure Cure for Hog Cholera.

j. NJ. Dunn, Esq, of this county,
has used a receipt for hOg-chol-
era for several years, both be-
fore and since the war, with great
success. His neighbors have used
the same, and they say it has never
failed to cure the disease, when hogs
would eat it, and it will surely arrest
the disease among those not already
sick. Here is Mr. Dunn's recipe:
Take one tablespoonful of arsenic,
one tablespoonful of gunpowder, and
one tablespoonful of sulphur. Thor
oughly mix these ingredients with
half bushel of wheat bran; wet and
feed to twenty hogs. If the bran is
soured before using it is said to be bet
ter.
Let our farmers try it, and give us
the results for the benefit of the pub

In addition to the proceedings of
the Presidential count found on our
second page, we VIII state that South
Carolina has been counted for Hayes.
No doubt he will be declared elected.
There is considerable disposition to
fillibuster, in order to throw the count
over the fourth Of March, and thus
compel a new election. We hardly
think this will be done, though.
