And now comes Winter on apace, apace!
With piercing, hyperborean blasts,
He makes the fallen leaves to race, to race,
And down the ripened simmons casts.
The ice-man's cry is heard no more, no more
The thrush's dulcet tones are stilled;
We're having sleet and slush galore galore
With wood our shed is duly flied.
The crib issbursting out with grain, with
grain,
The hay in loft is closely piled,
The larder's full. Come on, amain, amain,
Ye tingling frosts and snowstorms wildl
Yea, let old Boreas blow, old Boreas blow,
And ice the stiff'ning rivers bind,
And come the Beautiful Snow, the Beauti.
ful Snow:
We'll drink our toddy hot,
And bless our happy lot,
And toast our toes, and never mind!

ways to use these springs that it will be great
economy If they will buy them. They will

OUR DIXIE.

Notwithstanding twenty years have
come and gone since the following poem
was first published, there may bc many
who will welcome It's republication
ny South.
I heard long since simple strain;
II brought no thrill Of JOY or pain,
Nor did care to hear again
Our Dixie
But time rolled on, and drums and fife
Gave token Of a coming strife,
And tolled our youth to soldier life
With Dixie.
II brcathed Of mingled hope and fear;
II banishcd pcacc-brought discord near
And cost each mother many tear
That Dixie.
For gathering lcgions marched away,
And garlan,ls, ,naidens wrcathcd each day,
To crown them for the fierce aiiray-
In Dixie.
The husband parted from the wife,
And from the aged. his staff of life.
In some fair boy whose heart was rife
For Dixie.
Aud as our treasures, one by one.
All by tie battlefield were won,
They hear at morn and setting sun
Our Dixie.
But soon death claimed the young and
brave.
valor nor beauty could not save
Our darlings from soldiers grave
In Dixie.
Their blood flowed on the fresh green hill;
II mingled with the mountain iill.
And poured through wales once calm and
still
In Dixie.
The ocean caught the crimson stain.
And moancd and moaned-that troubled
main
For those who would not come again
To Dixie.
The living rallied to their stand;
Their war.cry was their native land"
But saddcr from the lcsscning band
Came Dixie.
Yet still il reused TO deeds Of fame,
And made immortal many name,
Nor ever caused blush of shame
Our Dixie.
The dying hoy its music caught
II do not die in vain." he thought,
"FIccdom by death and bloodare bought
For Dixie"
Sleep on. young soldier, with thy dream
Well did'st thou die with that bright CLEAN
OF hope to shed its parting beam
For Dixie
There's many sad heart living now
Would rather in thy young grave bow
Than see his country laid so low
Sad Dixie.
draw the veil: each stricken heart
Must mourn its own lost ones apart
In every eye n tear will start
For Dixie.
We may not hear that simple stain
Ever withou, thrill Of pain
Our deeds come hack to life again
With Dixie.
And if were generous foe.
I'd honor him whose hearts best three

Among the resolutions adopted were
the following concei ming the tariff
question:
Whereas, The platform Of the demo.

the president, declaring in favor of
free wool; and,
Whereas, The platform of the Re

adjusted and maintained so As to fur
nish full and adequate protection to the
industry; and
Whereas, Three-fourths of the ex.
pense of running sheep is paid out in
wage; and,
Whereas, The only way that sheep
can be run in this country with free
wool is under u very much reduced
scale of wages paid to class of men
who experience great privations in
the proper discharge of their duty;snd
Whereas, The system of diversified
American industry that has been built
