And sang their songs together;

And bore the stormy weather;
The self-sams blossoms decked them both

And in each stream the ong-birds wooed
Their bright reflections there,
And on. and on. aud on they dancei
Each leaping toward the river,
And thsa they met TO kiss AMI part
Forever and forever.
Two human lives two kindred hearts

They saw in one another's eyes
A deep unspoken bliss;
And from each others lips they took
Loves ever ready kiss.
And then the fate that crushes all
The sweet pleasures here,
Turned hopes glad music to sigh.
It's glory to tear.

Henry M. Neili, the well-known stats
tician, estim,tes the cotton crop of 1892
at Z. 100, 900 bales, maximum, exclusive
of old cotton. In the event that the
Texas yield falls below 1000, 900 bales
he believes tine crop may not reach even
7,000,O0 bales.
The new city directory Of Roanoke,
Va shows over 10, 000 names, and the
total population of the city, estimated,
about "a 900. In the past two years
nearly 1900 houses have been erected,
and 300 more are low under construc-
tion. The residences average in value
between $500 and $4,000. Within
the corporate limits there are 3,O69 resi-
dences occupied by $3.50 families.
During the past few weeks there has
been unusual interest in real estate at
Savannah, Ga, and it is estimated that
since Sept. the sales have aggregated
over 800, 900.
An interesting stateme mt as to the cost
OF cotton growing is made by u. +. Fos
ter, of Grcenvillc, s. c., who pantc d
six acres in the staple this year. lie
rcckons fifty loads Of stable manure, with
hauling, cost 81! so; five sacks Of guano,
$11.25; hocing, $15 90; plowing. .$5 90
preparing ground, IS. 90; picking, $40. 05
seed. 81 90, making total Of $i2i 10,
or $50 45 per acre. From this ground
nine bales of cotto, have been secured,
averagi 6 S34 90 each, or 1906, and in
addition $4,000 for seed, total of 1851 :,
or $5S 80 per acre leaving net profit
of 1928 30, or $3S 0J per acre. At this
rate cotton growing should be profitable,
but, unfortunately, three cent cotton is
oftener read about than seen.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, DEC. :, 1892

OWING TO the opposition OF some OF
the democratic congressman TO an ex-
ira session of the next Congress, the
idea has gotten abroad that the demo
Gratis in that body are divided on the
subject of The tariff, and that if such
session be held it will be developed
that trick was played upon the peo-
pie last fall, and that many democratic
congressman do not think the McKin-
lev bill as bad as they represented it
upon the stump, and that they are i'll
favor of giving the protected manuiac-
turers at least two years longer in
which to rob and pillage the people OF
this country by means Of the heavy tax
the bill referred to imposes upon the
necessaries of life. Democratic leaders
have often heretofore gone to the relief
of the republican party in It's sorest
straits; indeed General Grant once
said the republicans could Away rely
upon the democrats to rescue them
from ruin. 1t is hoped that such may
not be the case now, but the talk about
the business interests Of the country,
INDUCED in by many of the democrats
in both branches OF Congress, is any
thing else than indicative ofthe fruition
of that hope.

A Ainrdercr,s Confession.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec. Capt.
Samuel Smith, the murderer of George
Neal, the sixteen year old boy on Fri
day last, has made full confession OF
the crime. He says he Drained the boy
with hatchct, afterward casting him
into the sea. He admits that Neal was
not dead when thrown into the sea,
but cried for help. Smith says he in
tended to destroy Silbery, also, but when
he got away with Neal, ne thought he
he could not get along without the
other boy. The only reason he assigns
for the crime is that the boys had set
the small boat adrift.
