The young man of o.day can. il he
will. commence life where his father left
Off. for he has the accumulated expert.
ence Of all past generations to guide him,
IA few men have died with secrets worth
knowing. The man who will not read,
yes. study for success. does not deserve
it; and the man who does not subscribe
for AN agricultural paper tand pay for
it deserves to be humbugged by every
travelling fraud that comes along. His
pear trees should bear crabs. and his
apple trees green persimmons, and his
farm le infested with Canada thistles. 80

Forfeiture ~ Railroad Lands

Railroads and railroad lands are
recel, IN at presen, a good share OF
public attention, both in aud out Of
congress Hitherto the legislation
Of the country has been in the III.
rcction of aiding road. by freely
beslow ing on them the public 10.
main. There were conditions at.
tache,l 10 those donations, but in
few instances were they complied
with. For all this, however, the
roads have entered usually upon
possession of the lands and sold and
used them precisely the same as if
they wcr" in possession of absolute
title.
Since the democratic party came
into power We ste 4 marked change
in the matter of public legislation
in this respect, Land, are not b..
slowed without first ascertaiuing
the benefits that may accrue to the
people by such gift, and il the
roads themselves are worthy objects
Of public aid Public policy j. rc.
ally changed, and for the first time
in many years the matter of r'qnr-
ing railioal companies to comply
with their contracts has been en-.
uuircl into and enforced. Railroads
had become 50 powerful by this
public all tina, they ruled the conn.
try, and instead of enterprises that
had become influential by their sue.
cess in business, they became ahso.
Iu,ely king IN all public matters in
state and nation.
Mr.. Cleycland's administration
has put a check on this growing
power. Not only in our own state
is there an effort being made to for
felt the lands given in all Of Il road

Of its contract, but rIscW here ,hi.
same determined resolution to PIT,
the railroad corporations back int
their subordinate relation tn the
general government, j. manifested
In the senate on the 9sth ult. a
very important, debate was engaged
in on the resumption ot the lurs

was proposed to forfeit all land.

posed line as are not completed
upon III" passage W thc act uiide'
consideration. II is the same prop
ositlon made by senator Call reIa
tive To the lands donated to th,
Florida railroad company III thi,
state, and the same principle that
should govern in such cases is in
volyed.
This Kind of legislation mean,
tina, the railroads must give up the
lands they have no right to, and
yield the possession Of the same t.
the people, their rightful owners.

DISCARDED.

This rose last night in the garden grew,
Wooed by the winds, caressed by the dew,
In perfect content its hours were spent
Til on its beauty her eyes were bent,
But, an, those eyes are murderous eyes
Many q victim before them lies;
Lies in anguish and writhes in pain,
Nevermore to arise again.
She plucked the flower with hand 50 white,
To wear in her hair at the ball tonight;
And who could tell which was the more fair,
The rose in her cheek or the rose in her hair?
But faded at las and its beauty DER,
She cast it away, with a smile, on the floor;
And there at her feet, its fragrance past,
It lay forgotten by her at last.
Many heart has received like this rose,
Wild disquiet for sweet repose;
Wild disquiet for constant trust;
To be thrown ut last like this flower in the dust
And / raid, perhaps she may some day,
Weary Of me and cast me away
Weary of me at the dramas close,
And shall 90 the way of the rose.

WHAT DOES 1T MATTER.

Wealth and glory, and place and power,
What are they worth to me or you?
For the lease of life runs out in an hour.
And death stands ready to claim his due;
sounding honors or heaps of gold,
What are they all when al is told?
A pain or q pleasure, q smile or tear
What does it matter which we claim?
For we step from the cradle into the bier,
And careless world goes on the same.
Hours of glaaness or hours of sorrow,
What does it matter to us tomorrow?
Truth of love or vow to friend
Tender caresses or cruel sneers-
What dc they matter t us in the end!
For the brief day dies, and the long night nears
Passionate kisses, or tears of gall,
The grave will open and cover them all
Homeless vagraLt or honored guest,
Poor and humble, or rich and great,
All are racked with the worlds unrest,
AL must meet with the common fate.
Life from childhood till we are old,
What il all when all is told?

dangersome place, Robbie Rea, an I'd
ma thought o gangin' that wa, but l
waited to see would my sweetheart COON

niver a word.
Lang a1ore the party broked COP, I'd

But when I reached the hose agin

Then a my shameful sparrin' ABBOTT
