COMPLAINTS against the Magdalen Asylum,

suspicion should be easily aroused by any ones

come the muscle, or moving power,
wherever it has been introduced.
More than this, its presence indi-
Gates intelligence, progress and
prosperity, and its absence ignor-
auce, poverty and semi -barbarism.
cannot better illustrate this fact
than by the following brief extract
from letter of Andrew r. Smith at
Fort Sill (Indian Territory dated
March oath and addressed to Capt
Jno. n. Bofinger:
Everybody here is in favor of
the Texas d Pacific road. for in the
absence of such an agency this
grand country, so rich in every
wealth of nature, must remain an
unpeopled desert. At present this
vast region is perfect wilderness
of herbage and flowers, waiting for
the scream OF the iron horse to
transform it into granary that
could feed the Continent"
Not only the Indian Territory,
but Northern Texas and the rich
mineral fields of New Mexico and
Arizona, must remain as useless as
a desert until the advent of the
Texas & Pacific shall transform
them into opulent States peopled by
civilized communities. When shall
this transformation scene come off?
just 50 soon as Congressman rise
to the level of true statesmanshiD.
and legislate for the whole country.
The only thing in the way of the
early passage of the bill to secure
the construction of this great high
way through the Southwest, is the
obstructive opposition of the great
monopoly of the Central Southern
Pacific combination, which has al
ready taxed the Government and
people more than $100,000,O0O; and
is now lavishing a portion of its i'll
gotten treasure to prevent the con-
struction of a competing line of
railway through the Southwest.
But Notwithstanding the sophis-
tries, Establishments and greenbacks
of this powerful corporation, the
public sentiment of the West and
South is unitying and crystalizing
from day to day, and there is every
prospect that the next sixty days
will see a law passed to secure the
of an honest railroad
to the Pacific Coast. j. L. L.

TO THE GIvER.

'Tis meet that love should tell in flowers
What kindred spirits feel;
All words are vain, devoid of powers,
Loves pathos to reveal
The Arbor Vit@ that you gave,
In fond and faithful trust,
Will dwell with me within the grave,
And mingle with my dust.
By your own hands from where it grew
That verdant spray was taken;
I'd cherish it for sake of you,
Tho should be forsaken.
That precious gift my eyes oft seek,
! prize it all above;
For all to me it doth bespeak-
The rich gift of thy love.
Fen as write I view it now,
The emblematic token
Ofplighted love and mutual vow,
That hearts should keep unbroken.
Next to my heart III fondly press
That treasured gift of thine
Entwined with one fair silken tress,
Till l shall life resign.
Tho darkness dim my future skies,
And storms may gather fast,
Believe me, H, I'll fondly prize
This token to the last.
Tho hope before the clouds should fade,
And life be never blest,
Both this and thee, endearing maid,
Will live within my breast.
Thro' ev'ry day and ev'ry hour,
In pleasure or in pain,
Ny heart will beat beneath thy power
While in life remain.
Tho doomed from one love so well
In sadness ofe to part,
Thy image in my breast shall dwell,
And occupy my heart.
When friends and pleasures sweetly fill
Thy life with Joyous glee,
Oh give one thought to him, who will
F0TeUer think of thee.
May sweet endearments fondly bless
Thy life with joys entwined,
Bestowing blissful happiness
In fulness unconfned.
May all that earth has sweet and dear,
And all that heaven has best,
Happily crown your wishes here,
And make you ever blest. l.. N.

And 50 amid tho twilight gloom.
] stife down the throbs
Ofmy sick heart"
One Of my friends met me at the
depot; and, behind a fast-trotting
Spanish horse, we were soon in his
hospitable home and the ladies'
awaiting tea for us.
"Do unto Others" DC, stood out
like the writing upon the wall, urg
ing me to my duty. The tale Of
fears and suflerings were soon told.
They had "no fears of the small
pox." A Tennessean, twenty years
ago, had inoculated the whole fam
lily with it; several of which died
from its effects. God bless them,
they would care for me: and the
fair haired daughter Of the house,
with her fingers gliding softly over
the keys, sent her deep rich voice
floating up to the throne
"My God, my Father, while I stray
Far from my home on life's rough way;
o teach me from my heart 10 say,
Thy will, my God. DO donn.
Rene y my will from day 10 day,
Blend IL with thine, and take away
Whate'er now makes Il hard 10 say,

saw him in the depot at Bremond,
dropped dead in the street. The
anxiety and overwork (he already
suffering with heart diseased ended

Texarkana, Texas.

Seeing Estelle Vehse's letter made
me think of writing, in reading
which her subject dwindles into in
significance while contemplating the
fair authoress herself.
If it had been a hotel proprietor,
depot agent or any one in TeXar-
kama that uttered those wicked
words, "spry oldish lady," we would
have felt like walking all the way
there to have given HIM a tongue
lashing, as if any one who writes so
beautifully could ever grow old, or
even have the "bluesr'
There is, indeed, long line of
saw mills here, and there are i'm
mense quantities of lumber, some
being stacked and some being sent
out West. But the forest, o, the
woods had l the gift of E. V. to
describe theml The pine tops
meeting in the distance above, dane
ing to and fro to their own peculiar
music, letting the sunshine through
upon u carpet of verdure already
knee deep in grass and flowers.
Flowers! Yes, flowers of which l
never dreamed. Flowers, which at
home that is, old Giles) are cult
vated with care, growing here wild
ly in abundance-roses, pinks, lux
uriant beds of veTbenas, and hun
dreds of others that to me are
nameleSs.
Patient oxenl and to see them in
the morning twilight coming out TO
their daily work, sometimes nearly
an hundred; how much muscle and
strength and all obedient to their
respective drivers. On they go till
nothing but the flash of the wagon
ties is seen in The dusky light, no
thing but the crack of the whips is
heard in the morning stiffness. On
they go till lost in the distance.
Wonder if that old woman learned
what the fashion was. We are
blessed with no such amazons in
this vicinity as 4. V. describes.
The women, as general thing, go
too much to the other extreme, ap-
ing their sisters of the city in fash
ion and delicacy, spending their
husbands daily earning. Pity that
more of us had more of tie strength,
both physical and mental, that char
acterized some of the grandmothers
of old Giles.
The man who exclaimed, "Bless-
ed be he who invented Sleep" never
felt more grateful for a good nights
sleep than we feel for our home pa
per. Blessed be the man who in
vented newspaper printing. Bless
ed be the men who print them, our
paper especially; and blessed be
those good correspondents who
write the neighborhood news.

Glad TO hear. Yes, we mourn with
those who mourn, rejoice with those
who rejoice, and laugh with those
who go fishing, fall in the water and
get wet. Everything is Of interest,
from Tee Doss' dog up TO the St.

That is right, Mr.. Graves, gather
every child in our old neighborhood
into your Sunday school, and tell
them OF Jesus, and sing those dear
old songs. Then, after awhile send

Correspondence of the Citizen.

1t has been some time since
have written to you, so L have con
cluded to give you few lines from
this Land of Flowers" We have
had a very mild winter, and as
spring set in early, vegetation is
very far advanced for this time of
the year. Orange trees are all
growing beautifully, and everybody
is cheerful and hopeful. Lands are
increasing in value constantly. To
give you an idea of how rap
idly they increase in price, a
forty acre tract near me, with four
acres cleared and under :ence, sold
for $1s5 cash. The purchaser set
out $50 worth Of three year-old or
ange trees, made no other improve
ments, and in ten days after the
date of the purchase refused $3.50
cash for the place. He now holds
for $4,000.
We have had a number of visitors
with US this fall and winter, seeking
health and looking at the country,
and some have purchased. Among
the visitors was a young doctor
from Tennessee, who came in search
of health and Southern fat" After
remaining here few weeks the
Doctors health improved so that he
concluded to take deer hunt alone.
Before going out he enquired of his
landlord what kind of a deer was
desired-buck or doe-and as to
how he should get it home. The
landlord told him to kill any kind
he could and hang it in a tree, mark
the place and come home and he
would send for it. This was about
8 A. NJ. Dinner time came and
passed and no Doctor or deer in
sight. Supper time came and pass
ed and still neither Doctor or deer
were on hand. The landlord be-
came uneasy. Was sure there was
something the matter, as the Doctor
was always very prompt at meal
times. The entire neighborhood
was aroused, and the men and boys
gathered all the horns to be found
and started in search of the missing
Doctor. After walking and blow
ing for about two hours the report
of a gun was heard in the distance
All hands made in that direction,
and after another hours walk they
at II P. NJ. found the Doctor lying
down between two pine logs. All
of this within two miles of home.
The Doctor says he was not lost;
only too much fatigued from the
foot race he had after deer to get
home that night. He is getting
anxious to leave this low land, and
as he has heard that there is some
thing in or near Columbus, Ga, re,
sembling a Tennessee Hill, he has
decided to visit that city and if pos
sible see that Hill.
We ex-Pulaskians rejoice to hear
of the great improvements going on
with you. We doubt il we would
recognize the place now. Two fine
hotels, fire engine, more street
lamps and the names put on street
corners, part of the town burnt and
rebuilt, all since we left.
We hope Laps. may be elected,
for we have fellow feeling for a
man whose "boys" are all girls.

TOrtures that Need not be En-
dured.

People suffer a great deal of pain un-
necessarily. Among tortureS that need
not be endured are those inflicted by the
rheumatism and gout, since the acrid ell
ement in the blood which produces them
by contact with the sensitive covering
of the muscles and joints may be elimi-
mated by the use OF that matchless de-
pCrent, Hostetterss Stomach Bitters, be-
fore the inAammatpry symptoms are de
veloped TO any great eXtent. When it
ia considered what eXcruciating tortures
rheumatism infiicts, and what a tenden-
cy it has, when fully developed, to at
tack the heart, the advisability of an
early use of such reliable antidate be-
comes at once apparent. The rheuma-
tic virus is expelled from the blood by
the increased action of the Kidneys
which act as strainers-produced by the
BitteTs, and the sufferer will find, ii he
uses this supreme defensive agent, that
he win be protected against a return of
the agoni2ing complaint. Dyspepsia,
fever and ague, liver and bowel COM
plants and other maladies,are also cured
by this admirable remedy. apr4-nil

Nashville American: During his
recent visit to Nashville DR.. Standi-
ford, President of the Louisville and

ment Of works at Nashville for the
manufacture of steel rails, provid-
ing some of Nashville's enterp1ising
citizens would take hold of the
project for the purpose of pushing
it through to a definite and practi-
