sea-, which separate hills OF rugged
grandeur which stand apart like separ-
ated lovers. Its soil is rich and its peo-
pie have abandoned almost entirely the
cultivation of cotton and gone to stock
raising. Take Diana as center with a
radius of miles, there are at present
about 100 carloads of cattle within that
limit. Here cattle, hogs, mules, &c,
find ready sale and ready buyer at high
prices. There is not community in
the county of the same extent in which
as much stock of all description changes
hands as here. At present money is
plentiful, stock scarce and ruling at
high prices. Our people are in a pros
porous condition and generally every
one in this country owe but little and
pay their debts. The magistrates and
constableg are doing but little business,
which speaks wei for the general
average Of the community.
The lovers of fine stock viii find
Bay Prince s. Commodore, Jr., at the
stables of Mr.. T. j. Clark. The lovers
of poultry will find fine chickens, ducks,
geese and turkies ut Oak Shade Poultry
Yards, the property Of DR.. w. T. Perry.
The lovers OF pretty girls can find them
here and everywhere:
They are fair, they are sweet,
Nice, naughty and neat;
Dreamy eyes that appear
Like q smile and tear;
Cheeks like the glow
OF rose in the snow,
Lips that would seem
Like strawberries and cream,
Their beauty and their art
Win your eyes and your heart,
Like priceless jewels and pearls.
They robe in pin-backs,
Blue dress and rcd sacks,
Putt, powder and lace
With elegant grace;
Dance all the gaIts
In the United States,
Round and square, if you please,
With grace and with ease;
Part their hair on the side
With coquettish pride;
Wear bangs, chignons and long eurls.
And smile meath their fan
At the handsome young man,
Till Their looks seem, you'd swear,
To say, Now love If you dare;
Bite the bait en- my line
And you're sure to be mine;
In all loves completeness
I'll smother you " til sweetness"-
Your only chance 10 to run, sir,
Or you're gone, went and done for
by the beauty their banner unfurls.
But TO tell the true facts,
There arc some that chew wax
'Thout cessation or pause
Till they desjoint their jaws,
Or they chew and they ''chaw''
Till they take the lock-jaW,
Or their teeth all come out
From their winding about,
Ge- whiliikens! w-h-e-Wl
How they "chsW'' and they cheWl
Those beautiful wax-chowlng girls.

We learn that one of our discenso-
ate and broken hearted lovers after
suicide by shooting at his
picture, sent the following to his late
weet-heart:
"I'll never kiss my girl 'Rgin'
Behind the kitchen door
Nor take her llttlo paw IN mine
And shake 1t any more"
I'll never Irvine my fingers
In her golden hair ''agIn"
Or take her by her turn up nose
And slobber on her chin.
I'll never 90 to see her now
As in tho days rushed by
When every thing was lovely
Aud sugar in the pie.
PHI never rub tho freckles
On her sun-burnt jaw again
Or tread upon her jay-blrd heel
For squirting AZ other men,
For she's done and ''gone back on me,
From ali that can hear;
"Tll wipe my chm, pull down my vest"
And wAlk-of on my ear.
