office-hoIders under his Administration are
not expected TO capture the Primaries and

POETR Y.
FATHER RYAN.
BY REV. BEVERLY D. TUCKER.

There was never a voice TO utter
The grief and pain of the land,
Till his music awoke responsive
To the tender touch of his hand.
She bowed in her desolate silence,
And mourned by the graves of her dead
And she longed for the consolation
That comes when the tears are shed.
Till his strains, as they fell awakened
In the soul that bent DER the sod,
New faith i'll the gracious designings-
In the hidden purpose OF God
He'd learned, as He knelt at His altars,
To trust an 0mnipotent Love;
And his song had an inspiration
Which echoed the music above.
He took all our idle complainings,
And 10 in their stead, in one mouth,
His song as low supplication,
Welled up from the heart of the South.
His strains full of pathos and glory,
And heard of listening world,
Entwined as wreath of immoTtelles,
The flag that we wearily furled.
There is never grave so humble,
In all of the desolate land,
But his verse has inscribed upon it
An epitaph stately and grand.
Once more-by the beds of the dying,
In the homes of the pestilent West
His song, like low miserere,
Goes up from his plying breast!
A wall for the woe Of his people,
A plea that Gods mercy would spare,
And we take up its lowly burden,
And change all our murmurs to prayer.
All the South is strickened and anguished
But never a heart can forget
The solace his music has brought us
And It's echo lingereth vet.

owner of black cat that has acquired
the remarkable habit of catching fish for
its living, and has become so expert at
the business of catching them that il sell
dom misses fish that it makes plunge
in the water after. For quite long time
previous 10 few weeks ago the cat had
persistently refused food of any kind that
the family offered it, and the members of
the household wondered not little where
the eat could be being fed, which it GER
tainly must be, as it retained n perfectly
healthy condition. One day, about three
weeks ago, however, the entire mystery
was cleared up suddenly and unexpected
ly by the cat being observed TO make Il
dive into the mill-race close by the house
and reappear in a short time with good
sized fish in its mouth, which it at once
proceeded to devour. Since then il has
often been seen springing from foot
bridge over the stream into the water and
catch fish, which form its entire diet.
The animal will dive clear out of sight
in the water when it sees n fish in it, and
catches quite number of them daily.
