PLAYING WITH NY BABY BOY.

1t may be that fortune leaves me,
1t may be that fame deceives me.
And that pleasures early vintage has leaked
from my cup OF JOY:
But my losses and my crosses
Are to be no more than dross is
When rollio, when frolic with my little baby
boy.
1t may be that I'm sinner
With my chances growing thinner,
That the gold within my nature suffers much
from base alloy:
But know that I'm o mellow,
Simple hearted tender fellow
When romp and play and frolic with my
bright.eyed baby boy.
It may be that grow weary
Sometimes OF the world so dreary,
And that moody meditation may too oft my
mind employ; u
But his merry ewes beguiling
Change my humor into smiling
As practice many an antic with my laughing
baby boy.
When the little fellows dreaming.
And the golden cascades streaming
From his head upon my bosom, and he sleeps
without annoy,
Then kiss tho lips of laughter,
Thinking that the g:eat hereafter
Will be cherries II I cannot frolic with my
baby boy.

The Forrest Monument.

 The efforts of ihe Appeal to erect monument to the memory of Gen N. B. Forrest has awakened responsive thrab in the hearts of the southern people. Mir James Russell, an enterpris- ing merchant of Forrest City, Ark, in a recent letter experimenting Col. Gallo ways uttersnce says: ''As this place is named after Gen. Forrest we will try and get up A liberal contribution to the monument fund" Forrest City Is a thriving town located in a country noted for the productivenes- of s rich soil and there is not in all the south a more hospitable and enterprising people. A contribution in honor of the remarkable hero for whom the town was named would be indeed well-timed and sppro- priate. This monument must be built
 There should be no halt or delay. On this question the ''Soid South' should be especially solid. The Confederate veterans, few in numbers, poor in equipments, but rich in valor, should see to II that a monument be built to the
 memory of one who reflected luster on
 the cause for which they suffered. The
 mad passions born in war have been buried out of sight forever. amp the name and fame of Forrest will add spendor to American valor. When people become ingrates and fail to honor the 1 memory of their illustrious dead. it will
 not be long before they will have DC heroes. for there will be no sacrifice, nc

Memphis and Little Rock company is still good. and that the duty must be paid m spite of the varied experiences which followed the original incident, and the great changes which have since taken place. The case is briefly noteworthy for it's suggestion Of fur ther trouble. If it can be proved that the facts are as here stated and it is finally decided that the government cl,im is n valid one, it is quite prob able that other similar cases will come to lish and we shall be overwhelmed wi h them. It is not likely that in the beginning of hostilities at the south the Federal officials in all instances were careful to collect payment for i'm portatious designed to benefit the Southern cause, and though this IS i comparatively unfamiliar phase of the many peculiar incidents attending the opening of the conflict, it seems spfe to develop in interest to a remsfETb'- degree if the government makes out successful case against the Memphis and Little Rock railroad.

A peculiar case is being considered

It appears that quantity of railroad iron was imported into New Orleans for the use of the Memphis and Little Rock railroad just before the war broke out in 1861. and that the customhouse officials in that city handed it over to the railroad company without exacting from that corpora tion any duty at all, as it had been brought into this country for the bene- fit of the Confederate cause in equip ping the road for military purposes. 1t is now urged that the claim of the United States government against the
