Because Of one dear infant head
With golded hair,
To me all little heads
A halo wear;
And for one sanity face / knew
All babes are fair.
Because Of two wide, earnest eyes
OF heavenly blue
Which looked with yearuiug gaze
My sad soul through,
All eyes now till miueowu with tears
Whate'er their hue.
Because of little deatl-marked lips
Which once did call
Nv name in plaiutive tones,
No voices fall
Upon my ear In vain appeal
From children small.
Two little hands held in my own
Long, long ago,
Now cause me as I wander through
This world OF woe,
To clasp each baby baud stretched u
In fear Of foe.
Tbs lowest cannot plead III vain,

The low sandy banks and marshes of
the Paseagoula river are not noted for a
peculiar musical resonance, which isac-
counted for by the inhabitants of its
shores in a picturesque if not practical
manner. Upon calm moonlight nights
a mysterious music has been heard to
issue at intervals from the water, and,
''foating over its surface for a time,
die away IN soft melodious fragments. f"
A poetical observer declares that it
comes from cavernsOr grottOes below the
bed Of the stream, and, ascending from
the water in a volume OF sound, IT curls

Ed. RECORD: We observed in the

and that when certain parties from Utah
claimed the COW that We offered them

then drove them to our range. Il was

Invest on the Home Farm.

Many ruralist would greatly aug
ment his prosperity by devoting more
means to permanent and other improve
ments upon his farmstead. Somebody
has said, and we think sensibly, that
one Of the greatest leaks on a farm is
the practice of robbing it to get money
to put into savings bank. In such a
bank of deposit four or five per cent.
interest may be sucured-if the cashier
don't happen to be operating in Wall
street or speculating charlottesville
the same money put back on the farm
in the way of improved stock, machin-
cry, better buildings, undertaking,
fences, orchards, etc., would, after a
very few years, return dividends of fifty
per cent. Money in the bank don't
usually show until it comes up in the
administrator hands, but in good
stock and we'll cultivated farms it will
give returns speedily and with certain
ty.
There is another way in which some,
if not many, farmers miss it by invest
ing in the wrong place. For example,
many grasping and ambitious farmer
lives penuriously, depriving his family
of decent home and various comforts,
in order to purchase more acres. Pos
sessed with the insane idea that he must
'own all the land that joins him., or as
much thereof as possible, he governs
himself accordingly. To accomplish
this selfish purpose he lives in the old
house long after it is unfit for occupan-
cy, makes slaves of himself and family
and neglects the proper education of
his children. Were he to invest the
money thus boarded to buy more land
(Which he does not need) upon his
home farm-his rural home and its oc-
cupants himself and family would soon
be the gamers in both prosperity and
happiness. By expending his hard
earned and miserly kept surplus in i'm
proving his farm, stock, etc., and max
ing home comfortable and attractive,
he would not only be quite as prosper
Gus, but enjoy life far better and keep
his children from leaving the roof tree,
disguised with slavish, miserly mode
of farming, to seeking other and uncer-
tain employments.

There is nothing worse for domestic
animals than to scare them half to
death. Fright uses up the vital forces
more than work, more than the growth
of flesh or fat, more than anything else,
unless it is persistent starvation. We
have had two men working for US, with
teams, on the same farm at the same
time. One would take his horses from
the stable when they had been refresh
ed by few days rest, and were feeling
pretty well, and because they were
frisky while they were being harnessed, 4,
and the off horse did not keep the fur
row we'll at the first send off, would get
out of patience and yell at his team
until they finally would break into a
trot, when he would throw the plow to
the full depth into the first hummock,
SO that he could bring the team to a
full stop, and by this time they would
be we'll in Iather,' and quivering with
excitement. After he had yelled for a
few minutes, and the horses had be-
come thoroughly frightened, they had
used up enough strength to move the
plow for an hour.
The other man knew better. When
he observed while 'hitching up that
the horses heads were carried high,
and that they were feeling first-rate, he
would say to himself: There is good
head of steam on to-day, and l shall be
able to get a good days work out of
these fellows, if save it all to be used
to the best advantage Therefore he
would speak in as quiet tone as posi-
BILE, would move gently about and aim
to get his team ahead without the risk
of any rumpus or excitement, and
would bear with few Irregularities,
such as getting out of the furrow and
pulling by fits and starts few times.
The consequence would be that when
they were warmed up to their work they
would move on smoothly and at the
same time quickly, and at the end of an
hour there would be a row of nice fresh
burrows to show as equivalent for the
steam the other man had used up in
mere fret and fume and worry and pas
sion. As it is with larger animals, SO
it is true of fowls; if you at all times
exercise kindness toward them, they
will doubly repay you for your care and
kind attention.

Pearls.

When credulity comes from the heart
it does no harm to the intellect.
Who would venture on the journey
of life if compelled to begin at the
end?
Prosperity is no just scale; adversely
is the only balance to weigh friends.
The certain way to be cheated is to
fancy ones self more cunning than
others.
In judging of others, man often err
eth !; but in examining himself, always
fruitfully.
When the heart is not occupied by
good thoughts, bad ones are ever ready
to insinuate themselves.
Worthy books are not companions,
they are solitudes; we lose ourselves in
them, and all our cares.
Gold can buy nearly everything in
this world except that which man
wants most-viz, happiness.
B6rAs the Dead sea drinks in the
river Jordan and is never the sweeter,
and the ocean all other rivers and is
never the fresher, so are we apt to re.
ceive daily mercies from God and still
remain insensible to them, unthankfnl
for them.
n@- Servants belong to the hire types
! of humanity.
