In the Patiey.


Between the dusk and the daylight,
When the shadows longest RToN,
There comes q silence on all things
lis the hour when one speaks low.
We sit in the Parlor together,
And heavily ON the air
Floats the faint, familiar fragrance
OF the heliotrope in your hair.
And in the kindly twilight
see your dark eyes shine;
I feel the touch Of your garments,
OF your soft white hand in mine.
And one might see in the parior,
When the day 10 almost done,
On the wall, two tremulous shadows
OF faces melt into one.
Where ignorance is bliss
lis folly to be wise,
But the mouths the place to kiss,
And not between the eyes.

will give you good price for it. The
present crop will be large one--from
four and half to Ave millions of bales,
and it is thonsI,t by persaps who have
had considerable experience. that the
price paid for eaton now will not be
maintained long. Therefore I would
advise you, my friends and customers,
to market your cotton as soon as yon
can get it ont. as You will get as good,
if not better prices now, than later III
the season, and save from Ave to ten
ponds in the weight of every bale. as
cotton marketed as soon as picked ont
and ginnad weighs mach heavier than
when thoroughly dry.
