THE TWO affairs.


When Edwin reigned in Britain,
And Redwald reigned in Kent
The news Of Christ's religion
Throughout tho country went.
Edwin embraced it warmly,
UnauestioninF, content.
II will not be too hasty,"
Said the canny King of Kent;
ut may be Christ is strongest,
And the Devil safely pent;
But till am quite certain"
Said Redwald, King OF Kent,
"Ill give to neither worship
Unqualified assent;
Nv temple has two affairs"
Oh, canny King of KentD
"The foremost and the biggest
To Christ henceforth is lent;
But the small one in the corner"
Said Redwald King of Kent,
"Ill keep burning to the Devil,
That he may see meant
To do him no dishonor,"
Said the canny King of Kent.
Christians rule now in Britain,
And Christians rule in Kent,
And men suppose the Devil
Is dead, or safely pent;
But in some secret corner
The most of them consent
To give him one small altar.
Like Redwald, King of Kent.
Oh. H." in the Century.

VOLUME LYXXV.l

The GAZETTE was established in 1900, and is
he oldest paper published in the State, and with
one or two exceptions the oldest in the
try. 1t is proposed to keep up its usefulness and
to continue it as paper suited for the family as
well as for the counting room and work shop,
and to this end neither pains nor expense will BE-
spared.
The GAZETTE circulatcs among people who
consult its advertising columns before purchas-
ing. That this is self-evident may he inferred
from the fact that large country cdition-near
ly as large us the daly-is sent out all over this
section of country three times week. and is
read by thousands, most of whom send hero
to contiguous cities to make purchases. The al
vantages of advertising in the GAZETTE are
apparent, and need no further demonstration.
The GAZETTE will continue to furnish the
news kilograms Of the New York Associated Press
and of Reuters European Agency, while its
Washington correspondence will furnish the
latest and most reliable news from the capital of
tho nation.
The Commercial coumns of the GAZETTE will
give the earliest and most exact financial aud
commercial news, with reliable reports Of the
Grain, Cattle, Grocery and other Markets.
It's Richmond correspondence and special tele-
graphic dispatches will give early and accurate
accounts Of the proceedings of the General Assem-
bly, and Of all the operations of the State govern
ment.
Correspondence from every section of the State
published continually, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds Of the Commonwealth
will be faithfully reported.
In the Local Department no pains will be
spared to chronicle all matters occurring in tho
city and neighborhood.

AS one goes through the South ho must
be struck with the little respect shown the
Legislatures of Tire various States. While
ia Little Rock, Ark. was interested In
the Legislature, which has recently elected
Representative Jones to the United States
Senate To my surprise everybody In Little
Rock uses that Legislature as n butt Of ridi-
cule. II man is peculiarly ignorant or
shabby he must be member Of tho Legis-
lature, &c. No wit is too cheap for use
upon the Legislature.
During my trip, naturally / was inter-
osttd In the political feeling. From tho
most careful inquiry tho feeling among the
most southern sratesis that Mr.. Cleveland's
administration will and ought TO be con-
scrvative. They neither expect nor look
for o clean sweep,reaiziug that such course
would he bad for the country at large. In
Arkansas, Kentucky aud Tennessee tho
feeling is directly opposite. There every
body not only looks for clean sweep aud
postollice appointment, but there Is going
10 be fuss If such course Is not promptly
taken.
Throughout the whole South, though
there is a strong feeling that business will
speedily revive after tho coming inaugura--
tion nothing, however, is commoner than
TO see in the papers of the South n state
ment that Colonel Blank of Blanktown Is
prominently mentioned in connection with
a Cabinet position in the new Adminstra-
tion. Such statements do no harm. They
simply tickle Colonel Blanks vanity, aud
by a reflex action give the community a
sort of dignified air. Hence the editors use
them. MATT.
