LOVE AND DEATH.

Life may hold sweetness yet: 1 would
net die;
Fer He might come with smiles upoR
his lip;
And should L greet him with q joyous
cry,
Forgiving and forgetting all the past.
Just for the sake of love come back
at last.
Oh, life may yet be sweet; L would not
die.
Child, Fate has not been kind tn you
Your s.by Kisses could not ease my
pain;
While on that ether face l looked in
vain
For signs of what knew could never be.
Often l drew away your clinging
grasp,
To seek again the cold and careless
clasp,
No; life has not been kind to you and
me.
And Death is coming. All, will death
be kind?
Will he, some day, bring me my tru-
ant love?
Or shall float in ether pure above,
Passionless, sexless, and not hope to find,
Him who made life blessing and a
curse?
viii Death bring better, happier
times, or worse!
Alb. Death is coming fast; will he be
kind?
Love. have you never known one bitter
hour?
Never looked back with tender, sweet
regret
To that past happy Summer when we
met,
When first l knew my beauty-fatal
DOVER
Had chained your roaming fancy
What q chainl
Woven in madness from despair and
pain,
And idly worn to kill an idle hour.
Child, listen to me: Love is worse than
Death;
For Death takes all, but Love takes
fruit and bloom,
And leaves the worthless husk to rot
in gloom.
It tekes the crown from life; the weary
breath
Must labor on until Death brings re-
lief,
And blots out all the wearisess and
grief.
Alb, Love is cruel: merciful is Death.

GRAINS OF GOLD.

Circumstance is the occasion Of vice.
Patience is bitter, but its fruit is very
sweet.
Beware of the solemn deceivings OF
thy very desires.
He who acts his strength is strong
Snd will be stronger.
Every duty we omit obscures some
truth we should have known.
At twenty years of age the will reigns
at thirty the wit, at forty the judgment
The longest life will seem short when
we look back upon it from the threshold
of eternity.
There is no political alchemy by which
you csn get golden conduct out of leaden
instincts.
To reach the hight of our ambition is
like trying to reach the rainbow; as we
advance, it recedes.
Love is good and does good wondrous-
ly without thinking about it, and with
cut in reality knowing it.
The end of philosophy is the attain
ment of happiness, and the means it en-
ploys are rules for vlrtuous conduct.
Strict punctuality is perhaps the cheap
est virtue that can give force to an 9th
erwise utterly Insignificant character.
The tender warning voices of our
guardian angels are ever striving to
hush the siren tones of the tempting
world.
We are sent into this world to make
it better and happier; and in proportion
as we do so, we make ourselves both.
Ten thousand of the greatest faults in
our neighbors are of less consequence to
us than one of the smallest in ourselves
As continued health is vastly prefera-
bic to the happeist recovery from illness,
so is innocence superior to the truest
repentance.
The reason why we find 80 many dark
places in the Bible is, for the most part,
because there are so many dark places in
our hearts.
If it be my lot to crawl, 1 will crawl
contentedly; if the fly, l will fly with
alacrity; but as long as can avoid it,
will never be unhappy.
Character can never grow in the dark
it needs the frightening and vitalizing
influences of Intelligence to develop it in
to fulness and richness.
Wrong-doing is road that may open
fair, bnt leads to trouble and danger
Well-doing, however rough and thorny
at first, surely leads to pleasant places.

SPLINTERS.

The combined capital of the Roths-
childs, of Europe, is estimated at S1,000,.
OOO, 900, one half of which has been &C.
cumulated within the last quarter of a
century. The founder of the family,
Mayer Anselp, little over century
ago was a poeI clerk in Hanover bank

| The last slave in this country was
Milby Reynolds, and she was owned by

come his own master, saved enough to

A venerable and very dry Goldfish
hangs from the ceiling of the Represen
tives' chamber in the Massachusetts
State House. The fish was put there
1O1 years ago. by vote of the Legisla-
ture, to be "a memorial of the import
ance of the eedhshery to the welfare of
the Common wealth, as had beer usual
formerly" Even then it was ancient
custom for the Massachusetts legislators
to look up to fish, swimming in the
air over their heads, as the emblem of
the States most important industry.
Spiders were formerly considered to

Some years ago lady in Ireland was

thus affected. 1t appears that the only

Imagination had nothing to do with the
matter. In England, also, the spider has
been called in as an ague doctor. In
Lincolnshire the creature was treated
very much after the above-meBtioned
Irish fashion, being rolled up in paste
and swallowed ;but elsewhere the animal
is put into bag and worn round the
neck.

The late Gen. Toombs, of Georgia, de-
clared in an interview had with him be-
fore his last illness that, in his opinion
"the status of the negro is not material
ly changed by emancipation. 1t cannot
be changed. The superiority of the
white over the African, is not transient
and artificial, but natural and permar
neut. The same power which made the
negro's skin unchangeably black made
him inferior, intellectually. to the white
race, and incapable of an equal struggle
in the career of progress and civilization.
AS long as the African and Caucasion
races coexist in the same society the su-
bordination of the African is the neces-
sary, proper and normal condition, and
such subordlnation is the coudition best
calculated to promote the higeest inter
est and greatest happiness of both
races. Take away the whites and the
negro would bury himself in filth and
sloth and crime, just as his brethren in
Hayti and Jamaica have dope."

Last week nothing was found in
your columns from this part of the
county in consequence ofyour cores
pendent being absent, having had
little notion for sometime to visit the
great capital of our proud old state
andisee how things were moving in
that great metropolis, the center of
trade for a large portion of Tennes-
see and the South. And while things
and matters were reported to be quiet
by some, it did seem to one who had
been up in the mountains so long,
that things werelively, almost active.
Goods of every description were be-
ing handled in such quantities that it
would seem that none need togo hun
CRY nor bare in the way of apparel
and such things as people generally
need. One of the most pleasant
scenes that occurred was the witness
ing of the marriage rite between our
fellow correspondent from Viola and
one of Nashville's fairest bellies. The
ceremony was said by Elder E. G..
Sewell, of Nashville, in the presence
of few select friends ofthe bride and
groom. After congratulations by
friends, the welded pair boarded the
train for Viola, and we presume they
landed safe and sound as we have not
seen or heard from them since the
