A Trick Played by Gen. Toombs
Atlanta Constitution.

Perhaps the only time when Gen. Rob-
ert Toombs permitted any speaker to
have the conclusion on him was when
he had discussion with Hon. James
Gardner, editor of the Augusta Consti-
tutionalist. Before Toombs made the
agreement for Gardner to conclude he
espied an organ grinder and his monkey
near by. He bargsined with him TO
commence playing as soon as he (Toombs)
got through. Gardnerarose to reply and
the organ grinder began. The crowd
commenced to gather around him. The
monkey got away and ran up tree.
The Italian put down his organ and tried
to shake the monkey out. The monkey
would grab the tree and shake it too
This scene completely attracted the au.
dience and provoked the utmost hilarity
Gardner left the platform in disgust a,
being eclipsed by monkey.

To the Editor

, the Editor:
Here is a balmy little thing
To fll your heart with Joy:
But as 1t is a song of spring
send 1t by boy.
THE POEM,
The vine on the cot is blowing,
The nest is built in the tree.
And the apple limbs are showing
Their blooms in the fragrant lea.
The bird to his mate is singing.
The lainbkin skips on the hill.
And the rosy clover's springing
Beside the gurgling rill.
Sir Strephon his love is signing.
The cricket begins to chirp.
And the boy in the back yards tying
The can to the brindled purp.
Above the lake in the hollow
That mirrors a cloudless sky
Is darting the airy swallow
And the purple dragon-hy.
The bumblc-bee In the garden
Runs riot the livelong day.
And Maud in her Dolly Warden
Plucks flowers along the way.
Sir strephon his love is signing,
The cricket begins TO chirp.
And the hoy in the back yards tying
The can to the brindled purp.
