IT WILL GROW HERE.
MORE ABOUT THAT TOBACCO.

EDITORS J0URNAL:-I now think
that have made fair test of the
adaptability of the soil and climatic
influences of Cobb county, Georgia,
as to whether or not tobacco grown
here will compare favorably with
that of North Carolina and Virgins.
/ have succeeded well, both in the
culture and curing of my present
crop. I have some specimens Of
fancy leaf, also of cutters and smok-
ers that are bright in color, rich in
texture and Of full size, equal to, in
every respect, to many OF the best
grades, you see in North Carolina
and Virginia. 1t may seem strange
and almost unreasonable to many
that leaf or chewing tobacco will
mature so we'll so far South, but you
must remember that We are situated
at the foot, or rather at the terms
nus OF great system of mountains.
surrounded ON all sides by high hills,
which circumstances suppose lrcn-
der our climate somewhat similar to
that OF higher ATTITUDES.
The only material difference
find is that the dew is not so copi-
Gus and doesn't fall as early here as
it it does further north.
Tobacco, as all good farmers know,
will become thin and light after a
rain, but will thicken and become
heavy after heavy fall of dew.
I will take pleasure in exhibiting
my samples to the good citizens OF
Georgia whenever and opportuke
occasion presents itself.

FAIR MARIETTA.
Written for the MARIETTA JOURNAL, by
lady formerly of Marietta].

Asleep on Georgia's shaded hills Tonight,
Asleep in robe of purest, palest light
Fer wrought by Southern moon OF clearest
beams
That coming down in lustrous, pearly
streams
Adorn and glorify thee. Mystic rays
Often effulgence meath her magic gaze
Transform thy beauty with transcendant,
rare,
In garb her favored ones alone can wear
Thou hest dreaming Hast thou place for me
In all thy dreams? Mine ever turn to thee
Fair Marietta
But thou art waking Swiftly, softly, now,
Fresh morning winds that lightly kiss thy
brow,
Come stealing down from far away Blue
Ridge;
Whose wavy outline cuts with purple edge
Bright, blushing skies that smile on cons
ing sun,
With glowing, rosy cloudless one by one
Assume his golden colors, gaily wearing
A gorgeous welcome for their kings app
pearing.
In making give one kindly thought TO ME
Who, far away, think wistfully of thee
Fair Marietta
In dreams l see thee and thy warder grey,
His rugged lines disclosed by coming day
Historic Kennesaw, still holding fast
Among his rocks dire records of the past
Still standing grim, undaunted, as he stood
When soaked in streams of rushing human
blood,
AS hard as when the dying sank to rest
Their only pillow Kennesaw' rough breast,
And stern as when War s worst ordeal came
And at his feet seething mass of fame,
He saw thee lying. Yet mayhap with pride
He views thee now, restored and beauti6ed
Fair Marietta.
How art thou needed Soutnerners repair
To thy piazzas, seeking healthful air
They find in summer on thy wooded hills.
Then, when the breath of icy winter chills
Frail, tender Northern lives, that cannot
stand
The atmosphere of any ice bound land,
They too must come to thee, and for a time
Find strength renewed in thy bright win
ter cline,
From Georgia's low lands came the great
Lanier
And Everett Hale has turned his footsteps
here
From Northern States. But time would fail
to tell
Of noble rivals who have loved thee WELL
So sought, so wooed, each season OF the year
How can / hope that thou will hold me dear
Fair Marietta.
And yet, ! turn to thee. Forever past
Our pleasant meeting time. Forever classed
With precious things of memory's sacred
store
So dear, so valued, that it comes no more.
But thoughts and hopes and earnest pray>
er may span
Long miles, long years as they, they only
can;
And ! may plead for blessings richest, best,
On all thy children, every coming guests,
In praying that thou elevate all lives
With large unselfsh thought till greatness
thrives
And lives upon thy soil. That thou inspire
Each soul within thee, reaching ever higher
And higher still, till every impulse tend
To truth, 10 nobleness, to God, their End.
Thoughts, hopes, have and constant pray
ers for thee
In all thine heart hast thou no prayers for me
Fair Marietta?

Mr.. and Mrs. C1eveland's Beautiful New Re-

BUzzARD's BAY, May 3O.-BIrs. Grover
Cleveland has been driving back and forth
daily for two weeks between Joseph Jeffer-
sons reside nee and Tudor Haven" the ex-
Presidents new summer home on the shore
of Buzzards Bay. Tudor Haven" has been
undergoing extensive alterations, and in the
meantime Mrs. Cleveland has been the
guest of Joseph jefferson. She has been

and out of doors at her new summer home.
The work of renovation and repairs now
nears completion. and in few days the ex-
President will arrive at Tudor Haven. Already

The Clevelands have undoubtedly the most
beautiful summer place on the coast of BuZ-
Yards Bay. Tudor Haven is situated on
bold point of land. which has the water of the
bay on two sides and across which cool
breezes always blow. 1t is never uncomfort-
ably warm at Tudor Haven, even on the sui
triest days of summer. A magnificent view
of the bay Is commanded from the wide
veTandas Of the house
There is fine sandy bathing beach in front
of tho house. and in the rear snug cove for
the anchorage Of yachts. There is a wharf,
and the president has only TO walk dozen
yards from his back door to step on board his
fishing smack. As to the fishing in this
region it is fine enough to satisfy even such
an ardent Isaac Waltonite as Dir. Cleveland.
There are oyster beds in the cove behind his
house CLANS and quahaugs may be had
along the shore for the digging There is
fine blue-f fishing out in the bay When

rial sport may be had Bluefsh bite we'll here

fishing on both tides. The fresh water fishing
vies with the salt water in excellence. Besides
the Monument river. there are trout brooks all
through this region. Joseph Jefferson has a
fine stocked brook. Six miles away toward
Plymouth are the Big Sandy and Little Sandy
and White Island ponds, all famous fishing
grounds. Ten miles away in Mashpee is the
Wakeley pond. probably the finest fishing
ground in the whole region.
