iWritten for azx. J. Calvin Jones and Nj
Hughes on the occasion Of their narriagel.
Nov that Jon have been unIted
By the cords Of welded love,
And that you your trcsh have plIghted
With . sanction nom above.
Let the name Of love grow brighter,
A the stream Of life AOWs on;
Ever may you be regarded
Rapplest OF the welded thronR.
In each others fond embraces
May you And solaee sweet;
With smiling fAee andkissea
Always one another greet.
Try and "bea1 each others burden,''
Share the cross e best Jon can;
Make the most Of passing moments.
For this life Is but span.
Should your voyage prove tempestous,
And your barque be shattered sore;
Do not yield, but be courageous
Steering bEavely for the shore.
DO net falteg TIL you've landed
On the fair celestial strand.
Till your earthly tour is over
Boldly every gale Withstand.
Be firm pIlia n Of your household.
Do not bend with every storm;
Les no gaze mat Deats uPO1 yo0
Mar the grandeur Of youH form.
Do not WELD another sceptrs
Than the sceptre Of true love;
This sweet ensign governs nations.
For IL governs heaven above.
May you live to see your ohsprinR
Round you curl like ivy vine;
Nay they nn your homo with singing,
And like merry birdlinGs chime.
Bring them up both stout and sturdy
StudiOus, diligent and kind;
Like the stately oak above you.
May they rise to ranks sublime.
Now. my friends. I truss that nothing
Fer Will cause you to regret
That you did join hands last evening,
Midst the household where you met.
From my heart hcpS rich blessings
VIII attend you on your way;
Nay your lives send forth sweet fragrance
Like the lovely english Nay" 3. G. N.

II seems that soine Of the represen-
tatives in this and other States are
really trying 70 use the iaw-makihg
powers of the legislatures for every
little infraction upon what they deem
their private and public rights. Some
time ago several bills we're introduce
ed in the legislatures 70 lax drum
mers selling goods foF the interests
Of or large cities, thus directly i'm
reding interstate commerce which
the Federal constitution guarantees.
Now we see that a Mr.. Boone, in the
Legislature of Mississippi, is desir-
ing to fine and imprison agents act
ing in behalf of railroads and other
corporations, az well as individuals,
in procuring emigrapts to other
States. Where these agents will go
on a farm and interfere with the reg
ular business Of the landlord he
ought to be held responsible; but
when he comes into a town or county
and offers higher and greater INDUCE
ments to white and colored labor to
go elsewhere to work, we would like
to know whose statute or vested
are endangered. 1t would be
just as well to stop a colony of emil
grants who weekly seek this country
the shores of Europe, Away
with such ideas of free thought, free
spec speech and free action.

Stimuiant.

The following beautiful lines were
written by George D. Prentice thirty
years ago: "There is a time when
the pulse lies low in the bosom and
beats low in the veins; when the
spirit sleeps the sleep which appar-
entity knows no waking; in its home
Of clay, and the windows are shut;
the doors hung with the invisible
Grape Of melancholy; when we will
imagine the golden sunshine pitchy
darkness, and will fancy clouds
where no clouds be. This is a state
of sickness when physic may be
thrown to the dogs, for we want none
of it. What shall raise the spirit?
What shall make the heart beat mus
ic again and the pulses throb through
all the myriad thronged halls in the
house of life? What shall make the
sun kiss the eastern hills again for us
with all his old awakening glances;
and the night overflow with NOON
light, love and flowers? Loye itself
is the greatest stimulant, the most
Intoxicating Of all, and performs all
these, and is a miracle still, and is
not at the drug store, whatever they
may say. The counterfeit is in the
market, but the winged god is not a
money changer, we assure you.
Men have had many things, but
still they ask %stimulant, Men try
to bury the floating dead of their own
souls in the wine cup, but the corpse
rises, We see their faces in the bub-
bles, The intoxication of drink sets
the world whirling again and the
pulses to playing music, and the
thoughts gallQping; but the clock
runs down sooner, and an unnatural
stimulant only leaves the house it'll
filled with the widest reyelry, more
more sad, mare deserted.
There is only one stimulant that
never intoxicates, duty. Duty puts
a clear sky yer evey man into which
the sky-lark happiness always goes
singing.'

! \ writer in the Pamela Star says:
''The cry Of too much cotton is true
just this far, that now cotton receives
too much attention and space at the
expense of food crops" Well, who
ever doubted that? But how will
you have food crops when all Of your
best land and all of your best atten-
ton, and we might say all of your
land and all of your attention is given
to cotton Reduce the quantity Of
cotton and then yon open the way for
food crops, When it is known that
less cotton, in the aggregate, will have
a tendency to raise the price-making
one-halt or tWo-thirds equal to the
whole in money vaiue-tlle question
at once arises "Why do not Southern
farmers avail themselves of this fact,
the law of supply and demand?'
Without diminishing the area ofland
devoted to cotton, we would like for
anyone to tell us how We are to in
crease our food crops? By increasing
our food crops at the expense of cot
ton, we would have almost the same
amount of cotton money, with al
abundance of other things which
would not only increase our comfort
and general wealth, but make us
much happier as q people.

Some people seem to think that ole
maids are not only o]stracised in the
associations Of men, but almost dis,
owned in society. WHO are old
maids but ladies who have passed out
of the teens of early life and lost the
nonsense and yiyacity of youth? Old
maids are not always the disowned OF
fashion. Many Of them choose their
own lot, and prefer a life of single
~blessedness to the cares and trials OF
a family. Many of them marry late
in life and make the best of wives, be-
cause the poetry and moonshine OF
life have passed away under the ope-
rations Of req! facts, They IRE pro-
verbal for their neatness and meth
DDS in the social and domestic rela-
tons of society. They are generally
the best of daughters and sisters, the
most devoted of christians and sim
cere of friends. A long line of distin-
guished names could he summoned
to prove their intellectual and moral
worth.
