THE BEAUTIFUL Snow

Snow, snow, beautiful snow,
W~srshadowing Memphis, SO cold;
Covering the ground With 6 sheet So white,
Hanging the trees with icicles bright,
Chilling the plants With,its bitter bl asst.
The beautiful snow has come at last.
Memphis looks so Wintry now
With its icy winds and drifting snow;
Covering all tho streams ana ponds,
Holding them tight in crystalbonds
Bayou Gsyoso" IS freezing fast,
The beautiful snow has come at last.
AfaF from HarlhlaRd's froEen ;ens,
The wild winds sweep with mournful
tone.
Alas, how bleak the cherries view
Where lately bud and blossom grow.
We feel the chilly northern blast;
The bead.ifal snow is falling fast.
Patience, dear Memphis, soon spring

Velvet grass and green moss will appeLf
They are Numbering under thoir mantle Of
snow;
Weaving a garland for Memphis brow.
The beautiful snow will disappear fast,
Behold the Taxing District" at last.

A V TRIP.
Floating down the River on n
BroadhOrn.

Tits a little out Of the usual order
to make bridal tour on a Mississippi
river iatboat, and it is not often done,
but every now and then a spirit of adj
venture strikes into the heart Of a low
ing pair and the excursion is made.
Last yearor the year before a Capt. Es-
py, of Rising Sun, Ind, married abeau-
tiful Ohio Valley belle, fitted up a real
bridal chamber in exquisite style, and
regardless ofexpense, started on a voy-
age to the lower Mississippi, where the
live oak forests tower, and the fra
grant orange blossoms spreadtheir odor
upon the breeze. The couple passed
several mouths in this way, and the
time was delightful to both. Yester-
day another pair of bridal tourists
went by here going south on a fiat
boat. They were also from Rising
Sun, Indiana, a short distance below
Cincinnati. on the Ohio, and the boat
was a month out from her starting
point, the pilot being Captain Thomas,
and the same VIM steefea she EEspy
beat south lass season, 1t was the
silver bridal trip of Captain aud Mrs.
VIM. Hemphill, of Rising Sun, a couple
well off in worldly goods and whose
residence is the finest the
incest and the most attractive in the
town of Rising Sun. The gardens
and groves iR which their house is
situated occupies ten acres, all in a
high state of culture and carefully
kept. In addition the captain owns a
large ard productive farm near hy.
He has been aatboating for the past
thlrtE-fOur years, and this is the first
time Mrs. Hemphill ever made a
trip from home. Their children are
all grown but one, a lad Of fourteen,
who accompanies his parents on the
voyage. Several Of the children are
married and all are well-to-do.
The boat upon which Captain and
Mrs. Hemphill are floating down the
river, contains 5000 bushels of corn
for distribution and sale among sugar
plantations in Louisiana. AT one end
of the craft Is q neatly fitted cabin,
where a stateroom is comfortably fur
nished for the lady and her spouse.
She enjoys the novel voyage, she says,
and vii lOt In future allow her hus-
band to make other trading trips on
the river, unless he takes her along,

The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1880-11-03

EDITORS CLARION; l had the pleasure OF
being present at the Teachers Institute, SO
called, at Newton. say so called, because
the teachers of the vicinity did not take an
active part in the prOceedings-in fact, did
not attend. OF the thirty registered
teachers of Newton county, only eight were
at all present.
Prof Jayne, of Jackson, was there and
gave efficient assistance.
Prof McNeeley, of Missouri, gave some
very good talks aud practical illustrations.
Gen. Smith was on hand and explained
the objects aud necessity of such meetings
and the advantage and propriety of foster
ing free public schools.
Prof Ladd, from Staunton, Virginia,
was the master spirit. He can make you
laugh and make you cry.
He has had varied experience of thirty
eight years in teaching. Beginning with
ten dollars month and boarding round and
ending with graded school of nine hundred
scholars. He knows how to talk and keep
an audience interested. He is the right
man in the right place.
1t is disgrace to any community to al
low him to speak to empty benches. The
teachers, who do not attend. at least on Sat-
urday, ought to forfeit one months salary.
Prof. Ladd spent much of last year in
Arkansas. 1t is said that the public schools
there have taken a new impetus since, and
that emigration to that State is increasing
No such effect will be produced in this
State unless the teachers will attend his
lectures, and the parents and taxpayers put
their shoulders to the wheels.

Death of Bishop DOggett.

Bishop Daniel S. Doggett, of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South
died at his residence, in Richmond, Va,
Wednesday night, after a Protraeted
illness. The deceased was one OF the
ablest ministers of the Methodist
church. He was born in Lancaster,
Va, in 1910. AT an early age he read
law under his father, with the intention
of entering that profession. The design
however, he abandoned, and before he
was seventeen, began to study for the
ministry. Before he was eighteen he
entered the pulpit. Seen after arriving
at the age of manhood DIR Doggett en-
tered the Randolph Macon College, an
Institution conducted by the Methodist
church. After leaving college he was
