~ " An 'I ANSWER To MAX o,R1LEY.

BY gu AND L"
Some weeks ago, In dreamy mood wrote
The Bulletin Iistless rnusing note,
And therein Max O'Riley finds some 'thinSs,"
On which his startled N Sc curls up and sings
That Love is folly, and Dan Cupid's silly,
Until the warm heart grows quite cold and chilly
Chilly and cold, as when frost crystals blown,
By autumn winds upon the thrown.
How in the world o, Max! did you divine
The secret hidden in that note of mine,
And then, per contra, wholly fail to see
The Giving Inks that joins that H. to B.?
You see one side, o, Max, with Argus eyes,
And not the other where Dan Cupid lies.
Does that cid PrOverb in your case come true p
The guilty fec when no one doth pursue"
Cupid is blind, in wise old Ovid's song,
But never silly" There Max ynu do him wrong
When he would pierce the "calloused veteran heart
The sly rogue always hides the fatal dart.
He lets that hearts conceit itself deceive
With things it dreamed not of. Swear, and believe
That IL "a not it--that IT is touched not
Then drives IL eackling home to Camelot.
Ny guess is right, o. Maxi as you will find.
A gtrlish fancy is not aI5sGys blind.
When veteran hearts perchance would hunt tn
They're not ''caIlous'' AS you might suppose.
Hope still was left in wild Cassandra's song
So in loves dream, it grows forever strong:
And veteran hesrts that never felt that thrill,
May learn to beat and throb, and then grow still.

MEssRs. EDIToRs:
Our old friends, J. ". Macon and wife have
the sympathy of the neighborhood on the
occasion of the death of their daughter, Mrs
J. t. Jordan. Mrs. Jordan was well thought
of, both as lady and a christian; but our
loss is her gain, and we have no doubt
that to-day she is singing praises to God
around His holy throne, and waiting to well
come her husband and children, parents
and friends TO her Heavenly home, where
parting will be no more=We had the
pleasure to attend church at Porters Creek
church last Sabbath. Bro. Daniel Tucker
preached from the text, III We know these
things, happy are We, if you do them" Bro.
Tucker gave the text justice, and we hope
much good may be done. His exhortstion
to the sinners was eloquent, and by the
solemnity which prevailed amongst the boys,
We think it was felt by the majority of them.
We bCspeak much usefulness for Bro. Tuck
er.--Our people are going on with their
work with vim: believing in the old
adage, make hay while the sun shines
The wheat crop in our country, looks the
finest We have seen for a long lime. The
most of our farmers are planting corn, and
will give corn the preference to cotton this
year, which l think Is wise chOiCe--
Our energetic overseer worked the road on
last Saturday. Too much praise can not be
accorded to our oversecr for his indefatiga-
bic exertions in giving good road which
we have not had, for 10, those many years.
I'VE have Il gentleman staying with
US who halls from Bolivar; ne is respected
as a kind and clever gentleman.--
