Harvest Moon.
WRITTEN FOR THE MONITOR.

o harvest moon, so round and bright!
Your gentle radiance throwingl
In paths of silvery, shimmering light,
Like sunlit rivers, flowing
Straight from your home down to our earth,
From angels unto mortals.
You look tonight on scenes of mirth.
You watch, too, at deaths portals.
o harvest moon! mayhap you see
A maiden sweetly dreaming
Orange blooms and wedding bells
And all earths fairest seeming,
Mayhap you hear her lover, too,
In accents low and tender
Telling the olden story, of
A loving hearts surrender.
O, harvest moon! you look tonight
On heads bent low IN sorrow,
Beside loved ones waXen form,
Twill hidden be to morrow.
Hidden forever from their sight.
Forever? No; immortal.
The loved ones watch that shining path
To meet us at the portal.
You look tonight ON wicked deeds,
You look on deeds of kindness,
You look on homes of woe and want,
You look on purse proud blindness.
Calm and serene you sail along,
Your gentle radiance throwing
On scenes of right and scenes of wrong
Like sunlit rivers flowing.

The Summer Land.

Two leaflets, long since withered that gave birth
To no green memories of faded spring,
l keep, one would treasure gems of worth,
Though sometimes an unwilling tear they bring,
And fill my heart " ith grefs and longings wild.
Scoff if you will stole those leaves away,
Like kisses, from the bed of fair child,
Whose little life has dawned into eternal day.
He chained my wayward love, but never knew
loved him, never thought was his friend,
And held him in my heart among the few
Forwhom my life and powers fain would spend,
As lone cloud loving group of flowers
Might lnger DER them in its trackless way,
To empty all its boarded wealth of showers,
That so, in blessing them, itself might waste
away.
Angels! ye loved that little pearl too well,
And gently lifted it from life's rough sea
To heavens ocean, where not cen n shell
Speaks i'll the of storms that cannot be.
Angels ye took that bud, so rich in love,
Kept fresh with our wet tears; ye bore it far,
And set it in the summer land above,
Where sometime I shall find it, oped into st ar

My Faith.

/ trust in God; whatever ills
Around INV pathway fall,
Whatever clouds obscure my sun,
God sends and guides them all
| am not wise to frame creed,
Or talk of things divine;
L know not where, 'twixt good and i'll,
To draw a boundary line.
l cannot tell what saints shall fill
His glorious courts above;
l only know this one blessed TRUTH
That God is boundless love.
And knowing this, l cannot fix
The limit of his grace,
Or tell what souls have strayed beyond
The light of his dear face.
So in my faith I rest content,
Where 'er my lot may fall:
/ cannot wander far from Him
Whose care is over all.

would remind the friends that
Rome was not built in a day." Be-
cause Roaring Spring stands not now
upon the highest pinnacle of fame, is
no reason that it never will. None
write letters from here, ashamed to
own the little villa. In fact, popular
sentiment has ever been in favor of
planting its name in oblivion, and
ofletting it there remain. But fate
has not SO decreed it. No mineral
spring, gold mine, or anything in
that line has been discovered, but a
short while ago, its latent power
was brought TO life, that gigantic
Observation-Disclosures aroused. Soon
music of the drum and fife will vi
brate the air, mingled with states
men and presidents sallying forth to
enlighten the world. The existence
of this intellectual faculty might
never have been revealed, but for
the organization of a Literary Socie-
ty,' the founders of which should
be ever gratefully remembered.
Farmers are enjoying their big log
fires, with but little to mar their
happiness. They realize some trouble
in securing labor. Not many are so
fortunate as Mr.. Geo. Bush, who
works the hands he owned before
freedom. Tobacco is very good in
this section. Mud is very plentiful.
Mrs. ii. L. Hammack (nce Miss Mat

pepper, will return next week to her
home in Alabama, after a visit of
two mouths. Balls and socials are
now in vogue, and at all of which
Miss Sallie Crenshaw is quite popu-
lar, still she prefers being a WALL
flower. Mr.. Will Hayes has discov-
cred a new kind of pepper, with
which he seems much pleased. Sew

fact is sadly benioaned by many of
