IN MEMORIAM.

there is no death. what seems SO is tran
sition.
This life of mortal breath
Is but ! subject of the life elysian.
Whose portal We call death.
Mrs. ". F. Area, nee Miss Louisa NC
Murtfay, was a native Of Mississippi,
but for many years a resident of Able
wife, La, where she was unusually adj
mired by all, and beloved by those who
klnew her well.
Alas. poor friend, | know thee well
ard cahn1, not look upon thy like again.
70 be thus bereft Of those whom We
most cherish, these whose lives moved
arm in arm with all that is pure and
ennobfng, seems strange yes, passing
strange.
But ere we question an omnipotent
decree, pause to consider the transition
from an. erstwhile life Terrestia!!, to .
boom OF eternal happiness only baycha
the grave.
Were it NOT for this blessedness of
thought, this certainty Of life renewed,
'twould awaken the eyes of unrelenting
SORROW, and brand existence a hallow
mockery.
But to die is so'5rddin5d, and deasA
serves but as a stepping stone, over the
abyss, whose yonder STORE is eternal
bliss. To the dear husband, loving
daughters and relatives. my sympathies
are most siniet6Brre, ara its Hoped they
will find consolation in the following
thoughts
Calm on the bosom Of thy God.
Fair spirit rest thee now!
Fen while with ours thy footsteps trod,
His seal was on thy brow.
DSst to i ITS nn p5eos nc ho' n;eh beneath!
They that follow thy teachings in life,
No more may fear to die. FRIEND.
The present season is one long to
be remembered in this section for the
excessive dry spell, which is now
prevailing. But little rain has fallen
during the entire spring, and now in
many places the ground is too hard
to pillow. Many Of. our farmers are
entirely up with their work. every
thing planted and waiting for rain
to facilitate the working of the
crops. OF course. under such a state
Of affairs, the growing crops must
be backward. But, get everything
ready and in good order, and when
tue rain does come you will see
sights in tie way Of growing corr,
cotton, cape, potatoes, etc.

can farmer knows no pests like the rab-
bit pest as 1t exists in that country. From
few English rabbits, imported some
years ago, the breed has increased until
vast cxpanses of the country are literally
oyerrun with them Apparently incredi-
bic stories are told of the number and
ravages of Australian rabbits, but they
are no exaggeratiun of the facts. The
Parliament of the colonies always keeps
the rabbit issue on hand as one of the
standing orders of business, but it has
never found a remedy. Some time ago
it offered prize of S25, 600 to any one
that would suggest an effective extermina-
tor. NJ. Pasteur, the French scientist,
responded with plan by which the ami
mails were to be inoculated with fatal
infectious and contagious disease. But
after two years OF experimenting this has
failed and the Government has just
withdrawn its offer.

Manchester, England, is having a
great ship canal constructed by COM
pany who employ 10000 men at the
work, and in several yearsNthat busy
city will become a sea-
port The effect of this upon Liverpool
is discussed in England, and that port
will doubtless feel the competition of
Manchester. But Liverpool is busy with
securing an abundant water supply from
Wales. These new waterworks will in
clude a wonderful aqueduct tunnel un-
der the river Mersey, and the estimate Of
the total cost is IS, 500, 900.
