rive publish the following by request
of one of our patrOns-ED.1
TO Matte in Heaven.


Thou hast passed the shadowy portals.
Thou hast borne the mortal strife,
Thou hast left this world of sorrow,
For a world OF heavenly life;
And our hearts are grieving for thee.
Grieving with intensest pain,
Grieving that we shall not see thee,
Our sweet daughter, here again.
Binding tears are meath our eyelids,
Every lS.h SshrSs contains ssd wiss sa5 weeping
Weeping for thee, Matte, dear;
All! thOu'rt with the angels now,
And their hands have snioothed the furrows
Pain drew sternly on thy brow.
How they love thee; ah, we loved thee,
Loved thee more than words can toll,
Loved thee not, We trust, unwiseiy'
Lost one, not, we trust, TOO weu.
Lost one, no, not lost, for near us
In the spirit, still thou art;
And in all our best affections,
Bear st still n precious part.
Lost. oh, no, but safe in heaven,
Where, by childhood's shorter way.
God In tender mercy took thee;
Took thee with himselfto stay,
Took thee, but he did not bear thoo
Far oni us. No, thou art near,
And thy voice comes in sweet music,
Stealing softly on the ear.
When the morning breaks, We 500 thee;
Slowly as the days go by,
Hour by hour, till falls the shadows,
Every moment thou art nigh.
In the dimness of the twilight,
Clearer still, thy form appears;
Thou art with us through the darkness,
All our pillows wet with tears.
Wasted almost to shadow,
Sad and pale from constant pain,
Vert thou, when the father took thee,
Ne'er to feel one Pang again.
And thy sad, pale face In changing,
Slowly changing In our eyes,
4Iimpses OF thy former features,
Even now, before US rise.
AS IL was ere sickness touched thee,
soon thy gentle face we'll sec,
In It's mild and thoughtful beauty,
And Its pure tranquility.
Calmer then will be our fceiingsy
Retter thoughts our minds will NIL,
And with hearts bowed Down, yet patient,
We will own our Fathers will.

But one railroad penetrates Pedmont-the Western
North Carolina, little local road, which has been
three years in advancing as many miles.
The farmers in the Blue Ridge are pious,
lazy, kindly folk. living wholly apart from the
world. Their ground yields them plenty to eat, the
women spin and weave their clothes; they do not
probably see $50 year in money, and do
not feel the want of It. all trade being carried on by
barter. Their worst crime is the buying Of an odd
gallon Of whiskey and then at the secret stills
in the mountains. Everywhere are seen abandoned
mica and gold mines and ruined mills when
field is exhausted they do not fertze it, but plough
another. There is in short, part of the country
where a colony of hard working, honest laborers
aud skilled mechanics could work as needed re-
form, and reap certain fortune as soon, as in
western North Carolina A railroad crossing into
Tennessee connecting the Atlantic and Mississippi
Railroad and the Piedmont Air Line Railroad,
would open mp the short wayto prosperity to all OF
these isolated counties Minerals and farm produce
