LEGEND OF THE MORNING.
GLORY.

Through the dark rows OF waving corn
Our Savior passed one Sabbath morn,
That hungry men might pluck and eat
The juicy ears so full and sweet.
Just where His holy feet then trod
Bright flowers came springing from
the sod,
Tiat seemed in rai,abow beauty born
10 glOrify the Summer morn.
Twining around each stalk. and ear
They sent forth fragrance on the air,
For His dear sake who from above
Came down TO ,Ualk the earth IN loue.
Some rosy with the kiss Of dawn,
And some in red flames wrapped the
corn,
Whilst others were of Heavens own
blue,
And all impearled with drops Of dew.
Now when the night hath passed away
We oft behold at break of day,
Climbing on high the morning glory
AS If to tell the wondrous story,
OF one who left His throne in Heaven
That sinful man might be forgiven.
Each tiny trumpet it doth raise
Swcetly proclaims "Thc Master's'
praise,
And on the breeze in voicelcss notes
The "Glory IN ercelsiS' floats.

When they are once worked good
it will take Il comparatively small
sum to keep them up. After crops
are laid by there is a class Of peo-
pie that would have demand for
their labor ON the roads, for which
they could receive ready cash for,
and l am certain that some stands
badly in need oft. One may no
tice small piece Of road that have
been worked good and 1T takes but
a small amount Of labor to keep it
up. The work that we do on our
roads does but little good; the first
rain or two sweeps all the loose
earth oft our roads and then they
are as bad as ever. In my esti-
nation, to give Justice to all peo-
pie, the public roads should be
worked the same way that public
offices are paid-by taxation.

ON ROAD-WORKING. :.

MIR. EDITOR: As the road work
ing season is about over, I wish to
say few word through your
worthy paper to the people Of
Pickens county with regard to
working the public roads. The
majority Of the road hands have
went over their roads, and IN few
days the small amount OF earth
that we dig up will be washed
away. To-day the roads is in as
good condition as they Will be for
years to come, unless the law is
enforced or changed. The pres
ent mode Of working the roads is
10y no means a fair or just way.
The poor man who pays only tif-
teen cents tax on personal proper
ty is bound by the law to give as
anuch labor ON the public high
ways as the man who pays from
one to two hundred dollars tax on
Real estate. That is totally un-
5ust ia nay estimation. Good roads
is Of great service to the heavy Ia
den wagons of the rich man. But
not so mach for the poor, who some
times have no wagon but still the
roads are nearly all worked by the
poor. My idea is to have them
worked by taxation. Tx can be
nothing bat right, and Fright
wrongs NO man." Let the Com
anissioners let the roads out, as
they would bridge, to the lowest
bidder, and when a section is fin
dshed according to contract, let
the Commissioners receive it and
order the Treasurer to pay it..

KEEN DIS lsArPOINTMENT.- THE
"rural ROSTERS Of Arkansaw have
an exalted conception of Gov
ernor's magnitude. Some time ago
"a barbecue was held at Grand
Point, and, among other distin-
guishcd citizens, the Governor
agreed to attend A large crowd
assembled, and when it became
known that the Governor had ar
rived, the people were much excl
ted in their anxiety to behold the
august ruler. Old Sam Fellers,
who had walked fifteen miles to be
present on the occasion, turned to
a friend, after an unsatisfactory
search, and said:
elias the Governor got here yet,
Bill"
'Yes, thar he stan's, talkin' to
the County Jedge."
"What! that feller with red
neck like turkey gobbler
"That's the man.
"W'y dog gone his ugly pictur',
he amt as big as l am. Been
wantin' to see Guv'nor all my
life, an now this is the way I'm
sarved. Tother day l was tuck
down with a congcstivc chill, an
L was powerful afecrcd that I'd
die afore | had a chance to see the
ruler o. the State, but now I'll be
blame ct don't wish that / had
died. Look at him, will yer, chaw-
in terbacker like goat an slob-
BERN like a grasshopper. I'm er
great mind to jolt him all over this
town fur givin' me sich er diser-
|pp'intment. Wall, believe I'll 90
home"
"Sam, better stay an git some
O the barbecued shoat."
"No, that feller has tuck my ap-
pertite. I've come to tho conclu-
sion that the country is a fraud.
Governor!' he said. contemptu-
ously, and, rolling up his trousers
preparatory to long journey, he
departed, and, without looking
back, disappeared in the woods. -

Editor CoWieS ed.-H G
Declares for Sherman.

SpeciDl Dispatch to Cincinnati Enquirer.
RAYENNA, ONO, May 12.-Hon. Ed
win Cowles, editor OF the Cleveland
lican National Convention, was in this
city to-day in attendance upon the fun
eral of Mrs. Chase, his daughters moth
ton with a friend, Mr.. James w. HOl-
comb, the following cOllOquy took place:
'Mr. Cowles, you are delegate to the
Chicago Convention p
Yes, and my nomination did not cost
me one cent" H
81 presume, Mr.. Cowles, you are a
Blaine MANI
mo, sir; | am for John Sherman
"Why are you for Senator Sherman
| supposed you were for Blaine
Il am for John Sherman because he
can carry New York State, and Mr..
Blaine cannot"
Don't you think Mr. Blaine could
carry the Pacific States and New Jer-
sey"
Il think he could carry the Pacific
States, but he could not carry New Jer-
sey if he could not carry New York.
He reiterated his often quoted opinion
that if the electoral ma ajority for the Re-
publican nominee was small the Demo-
crats would be likely to stop at no means
to count him out and the Democratic
candidate in.
''Who in your opinion will be the Re
publican nominee at ChicagO?"
Il think it will be Senator Edmunds or
Robert Lincoln"
The above conversation was doubtless
intended to be private, and no one will
be more surprised than the participants
in this conversation when they read it in
the Enquirer. Your reporter voucheS
for its absolute authenticity.
