Donaldsonville Chief: Capt. W. NJ.
Surls, an old and experienced river man
and steamboat agent, has been appoint
ed mail agent for the Donaldsonville
and Baton Rouge route, and is giving
entire satisfaction in that position. The
little Morning Star continues to make

ton with the daily train since she began
running between Baton Rouge and our
town.
Weeks FLORAL GUIDE.-This work is
before us, and those who send 10 cents
to James Wick, Rochester, for it will be
disappointed. Instead of getting cheap
thing, as the price would seem to indi-
cate, they will receive a very handsome
work of 112 pages, and perhaps 500 illus
trations--not cheap, but elegant illus
trations, on the very best of calandered
paper, and as set off to the whole, a
beautiful Colored Plate that is worth
twice the price of the book.

of money in such an enterprise.

RICHLY POOR.

When Charles Platt and Mary Dean
were married they had Just three dol
lars in hand wherewith to begin life
Charles was clerk in general store
in a small inland town. Mary was a
farmers daughter who had taught dis
trict school tor living. They were
now both orphans. and, having known
each other for many years, had grown
into love, rather than fallen into it,
and were of the same mind that it was
better to be happy together, than I'M
happy apart.
So Mary laid out her small savings in
cheap furniture for two rooms, q few
dishes, a good store of underc' othes,
two calico dresses and a merino; and
Charles spent his on stove, q clock,
an ingram carpet, a good bed for the
bedroom and suit Of Sunday clothes;
this lett them, as l said. three dollars;
for Charles salary was only Just in
creased to such small extent as made
his marriage possible.
In this little town of Durham all the
children in their early lives went to
school together. and grew up friends as
far as their natural traits permitted;
but some of the wealthy manufacturers
and professional men, when their sons
and daughters grew older, sent them to
the county town or even farther, for
better education and more polish than
they could obtain at home.
When Charles and Mary were mar
ned and came into church the first
time one November day they were

THE OLD HOME REVISITED.

came, but ali. how changed the place,
Once fresh with many a rustic grace!
The gate hung creaking in the wind.
The path. o ergrown. | scarce could ind,
And through the iong-deserted rooms.
Now hung with memory's somber glo0ms,
My footsteps liz their hollow tread
Seemed but the echoes Of the dead.
heard again from that fa- shore
The voices of the days of yore:
The loving clasp, the dear caress,
Came back with old-time tenderness
For one brief moment, and the team
weiled u . for all the vanished years
Since you anl /, in youth fair prime,
Passed here its glorious summertime.
How well mind me of the day
We took the little country way,
That ed for US to some grant spot
Where ric res. flme, should be our iot
The cattle browsing in the lane,
The trees alb Dom and all the train
OF sights and sounds so glad and free
Are once again q joy for me:
Hut oh, a JOY to- full of pain,
For those we loved come not again!
And you and are wandering wide,
Time, circumstance and AL divide,
Till even we have caught the change,
And each seems to the other strange.
But there are lingering traces yet,
Like gems on many an object set
Drops IN the measure lncOmplete
OF / fe so strangely sad and sweet
Around the hearth where W inter- nights
We sat and watch the changing lights,
A shadowy group seemed $ IL to hold
Communion that can ne'er be told.
The noon-mark on the window-sill.
Carved by dear hands that now are still.
Holds in its dim, dust-covered line
The stat where countless mem ,ries Irvine;
The door, too. where we watched the sun
Creep down the hills when day was done,
Seems like a shrine on hallOwed ground,
For here our pu est Joys were found.
! looked to lind the trump thowers
That trailed there in those happy hours,
But gone are all the scarlet blooms,
Gone are the sweet WILDWOOD perfumes
Only the dust and gathering mold.
Where once was life and hope untold.
Along the dear old garden-wall,
Where one stray sunbeam seemed to fall,
A few pale. struggling fiowe 3 still grew.
Scarce seen the weeds and MOSES through:
But not the ones we planted there
With loving thought and anxious care;
Those all are dead: not one remain
To link the past in Times long chain.
Only the dust and gathering mold
Where once was life and hope untold.
