There is talk of having a daily paper
here, Professor Ragland, editor and
proprietor, and Mi. E. Maxwell, local
reporter. The professor has the requi-
site qualifications for a first class edi-
tor. He is by nature endowed, and by
learning taught to move the world by
caustic pen.
we believe a communication from
here would be incomplete without hav-
ing noticed our fellow correspondent,
"X. Y. H." We've read that
Full many a flower is left to blush unseen,
And waste its sweetness on the desert air,
But did not think, no! did not dream,
That GreentOn held q gem 80 rare.
He has but to seize his pen.
And his readers stand entranced.
Where fancy halts In other men,
His, fresh as morning rises
And scars untrodden heights,
And seems at home where angels bashful
look.
Write on, "X. Y. H."
And you immortalized will be.
Homer, Shakespeare, Byron and other poets
not q few,
1mmOrtaliZed themselves and doubtless
they, like you,
First rhymed on pigs, and puppies, too.
SEMI-O OCCASIONAL.
