THE LEAP YEAR PARTY

4 All We bachelors Of Georgia,
&4isten to me while tell
Ob.he many wOndrous doings
Nhauite lately here betell.
Hsss in this simple story,
A moral you all may find
Though It's simply for amusement,
That this Brief tale is designed.
Our dear Marietta ladies'
(IIeaven bless their precious hearts
They lave long ago eBslaved as

As | said, our lovely ladies

For they argued These young fellows,

They are just MS nice as can be,
But they ia fail in one thing;
They are rapt rausly attentIAA
And in fact the best OF UGauX, =
Ent they cling fast u their freedom,
And they don they wont-propose ~

But the Almanac revived them.
For they saw ioq Wear was near,
With its special privileges
BY the ladies held SO dear
And they didn't lose "A minute,
But on the first day Ofali,
Issued forth with invitations
To their famous Leap Year Ball.
Our young men, with mixed emotions
or citation and alarm,
Saw this feeling Of the ladies
Thus assume an active form.
But their fears they quickly stiiled,
And prepared their parts TO play
Put their front hair in curl papers,
On the evening ofthe party,
Each, Of course, at home did keep,
Till his partner came out for him,
Though the mud was ankle-deep.
And, TO show his patient escort
Something Of his new born power
Or by way retribution,
At the ball the lucky fellows,
Were led out upon the floor
While about, in hooks and corners,
Bloomed the "wall-howcrs' by the score
For alas the ladies paid of,
Many long remembered scores;
But the charmcrs failed completely,

A KIND REMINDER OF EDITORIAL Pow
ERTY.-The editor Of the Charlotte Observer
neatly twits some Of us IN the following
style:-
We hope Col. Cole will not despair of
reaching a city by the sea- and this is to
inform him that there is a railroad UP in
Western North Carolina. looking very much
In the direction of his Western cities, and
whose Southeastern terminus can easily be
made at the head of sloop navigation on the
Cape Fear, that we are very anxious to sell.
indeed, some Of our State uho
necer OUned q dollars uorN of rat7road
stock, and nerer uaU, are for giving it away
bodily. Come over colonel, and see if we
cant trade? We've got a big thing, and
you can make lots of money out Of it."
1t may not be worth while to say that
your bloated Railroad bondholders and
stockholders, are not generally deemed the
most careful of the public interest nor the
most patriotic In sentiment. We will mere
ly remark that such editors as Bros. Harper,
of the kinston Journal, Biggs, of the Free
Lance, Caldwell, of the Landmark, Nc
Dowell, of the Southern Home, and one
dozen others we could name who have ia
vored the getting rid of the States inter
est, : so-called, in the Western Railroad, are
as patriotic and sensible as if they had each
a wealthy father-in-law, uncle, or aunt, to
help them buy railroad stock"
