From the pen OF gifted Mississippi
lady, the wife of the secretary of state
we print the following extract from a
letter written for the Ledger. We
wish we had room for the entire LETTER.
The American Exposition has stepped
INTO the immense shoes of the WorId,,
Exposition, and proposes to rivet more
hrmly the links connecting distant states
The goodbye echoes from last sprino

cordial hand-clasp proclaims the renew
ed pleasure of friends who have met
again.

GRANT.

Once. TO The pomp of the joy-bes peal,
Supple as oak in his iointed steel,
The laurelled consul; released from marches,
Led tall Tugurtha under the arches;
Chafng in gives at his cars gold wheel:
But dumby enduring the thorn and rood
or war. for the hope Of immort; good,
Our mighty leader outyied the Roman,
LAYING. for chain on the neck of his foeman,
Compassion. and candor, and knightlihood!
True metal he, to his bright swords tip;
Potent and few the words Of his lip.
Cajoler of none; austere, yet tender;
Ofrght ayenger, of wrong, amender;
Secure from the fever of riyalship:
With the lions front, and his football mild,
Unangered mistaken, and unbeguied:
From camps to the heavy trust of nation;
Through censure, and triumph, and desolation,
TO pardon, and peace, and the sleep of child:
Behold our soldier! And his advance
Meant forethonght, labor, and sufferanee:
These make his worth; these, our thanksgiving;
For he, in the charm of his simple living,
Was more than the heroes ofold romance.
And thou, loadstar of our hottest pride
When even the beauty of them that died
Shone not in the heaven of our grief above thee
Q Land, now, like to the souls that love thee
By anguish and misery purified!
Remembering tales of the captive kings
And their jeering victorS; and with these things
Thy day that was altar and font; and sermon
When Johnston and 3uckner, with Sheridan
Sherman,
Riding abreast where the Hudson signs.
Down the blue ranks to the sacred sod,
Bore out our Greatest from paths he trod,
Mid trailing of arms and drum-taps solemn,
And russell of lowering flags in the column,
From the psalm of the guns to the peace of God
Rejoice! Though the uttermost praise we frame
BE homage too poor, and fororn acclaim,
The break in their voices-yea! THAT is glory
Music, and garlands, and oratory,
Noble for aye as his noble name.

My boy and went walking that day,
And the hills and meadows were green
The trees, in the freshness and fullness of
leaves,
Were as rich as ever were seen.
The dew lay over the flowers and grass,
And the sparkles of light were grand,
While the genial breezes just stirred the air,
And softly our warm cheeks famed.
Our path ran up and across the long hill
And parted, but saw it was plain,
If the boy went that path and went this,
We should come together again.

Should we take the two ways apart;
Not knowing the road, "No, sir,p he said,
For a fear fell over his heart.
So thought how often in duty's path,
When the call of faith comes clear,
Friends falter to take their separate ways,
Lest they part to meet no more here.
But an Eye above sees all the way through,
And knows that if trusting they go,
They shall come together mid flowers and
dew,
Where the breezes of Eden blow.
But on we went in our morning walk,
And reached the height of the hills,
When we saw that fog lay on all below,
And hid town and factories and mills.
| tried in vain to see the heights beyond
For the mstS were dense and deep;
Then subdued, yet clear, came the sounds
of train
AS it passed round an unseen steep.
Thus it is through life we have part view
of things,
Though it seemed we had climbed the
height
And reason is bound by mist that clings
To the whole horizon,of sight;
But if Faiths fine ear is open to hear
The soft, floating sounds that come,
The spirit will catch sweetest notes of cheer
From the realm of its unseen home.

Tennessee was the third State ad.
mitted to the Union under the Federal
Constitution. In 1910 it had 230. 900
inhabitants. 1t is one of the richest
States in natural resources. Its ca
pacity for agriculture and manufacture
ing are the highest. 1t has mild cli>
mate; the soil is wonderfully fertile
and successfully produces greater var
riety of crops than that of any other
State-corn, wheat, and all the cereals,
tobacco, rice, sweet potatoes, peanuts,
hemp, flax and cotton. Fruits and
vegetables flourish, and the rich grass,
the climate and an abundance of water
render the rearing of stock easy and
satisfactory. The advantages for manu-
featuring are on every hand. There is
an abundance of water power, of coal,
and of useful timber trees. In the
foot hills are rich iron ores, and close
by are inexhaustible quantities of lime
stone There are copper mines of con-
siderable value. Building stone, gran
ties and marble, are plentiful; there are
potter's clay, milestone, photographic
shale, ores of lead and zinc, alum, Pc
troleum, and glass sand. Midway be-
tween North and South, close to mar
ket, and with diversified resources en-.
abling her to supply neighbors on either
side with that which they themselves
do not produce, there seems no obsta-
Gle in the way of Tennessee's prosperi>
ty. 1t should be above all manu-.
featuring State, with-agriculture as the
basis of great progress and enterprise.
Texas was the sixteenth State ad.
mitted under the Federal Constitution.
1t lies remote from the older and more
populous States 1t is isolated from
market, this disadvantage appearing
the greater from the fact that the
States chief source of wealth is agricul-
ture. Its capacities for manufacturing
are limited. The timber growth is not
valuable except in few localities, and
such mineral and coal deposits as there
are have not warranted extensive
working.
There is great disparity between tt {
natural advantages of Tennessee and
Texas. The former appears to have
