UFOIBLES OF FANCY. .

The following little poem and notice of Dr. Dozier's new book, "Foibles of Fancy,' appears in the columns of the Birmingham Times of last week. Such kind notices as this appearing in the papers all over Alabama is very gratifying to the author and his friends:
 CAREFUL HOW YOU TREAD.
 In walking through earihs verdant fieIdsS Be careful where you tread; & Don't crush the little flowers While gazing overhead. E The stars know are brighter far
 Than flowers that deck the sod, A But both the flowers and the stars
 Are handiworks of God. HA And in the fields of human life } oft found in humble ways, z The pure in heart, the mild and good E Escape our upward gaze,
 And in our rush and wild pursuit G Of best in social skies We sometimes crush noble heart That heaven itself would prize.
 -Dr. 0. T. Dozier, in Foibles of Fancy, etc., This book of poems by Dr. O. T. Dozier of this city, which has already attracted considerable attention, will find by reaso n of those numbers pertaining to the field and camp, an honored place on many an old soldiers table. But his muse is ver- satile, and in his poems of an amatory character the lover will recognize with which makes old earth heaven. The comic poems are very funny indeed, while those outpourings of the poets n,editative moods are full of noble sentiment. Per. haps the highest worth in his, or in any authors productions, is the spirit of revi erence toward God and kindliness towards his fellow man which runs like a silver thread through "'Foibles of Fancy and Rhymes of the Times"

MT. Van Hoose, in pandering to the vote of the laboring man, has several times stated In public speeches that he favored paying tue laborer high wages.
 A communication, too long to be repro- duced in this column, signed by MT. L.. w. Brown, worthy mechanic, claims that when the rich widow in New York gave MT. VanHoose S7000 with which to expert white bricklayers applied for em- ployment at the regular scale of wages of S2.50 per day, and that he (VanHoose) confined the work to negroes at $1.25 per day.
 MT. William Gabert, one of the best known contractors in the city, can tell you all about it.
 Dr. Pettiman also will throw light. Ask Charley Cleveland, colored, too.
 This is said only to refute the argument that anHoose has such love for the white laborer that he would urge, much less pay :, good wages.

1.-THE recent success of the Republican party in the country has emboldened its leaders to hope to restore it to power even in this State. Aud we find coming to the front the same leaders who led that party in the terrible days of recon struction, and we find them appealing to the same class of voters that they, with Spencer and others of his kind, appealed to from 1868 to 1874. And in their meetings we hear the same inflammatory haran gues, greeted with the same hideous yells, that we heard in those dark days, tho memory of which will cling to us as the memory of a horrible dream. Alabama cannot afford to have her prospects blighted by the re- turn to power of those who (misgoverned her from 1868 to 1874. It is then more im- portant than ever that we should organize organize in the precincts in the country, and in the wards in the cities and towns, and that every man who loves good govern ment should stand by that organization. !"

The air coming in contact with the

The tank of water is heated by two

lamp, but we find that it furnishes
hardly enough heat; therefore we sug-
gest two lamps, and more if the tank

The lamp needs but little descrip-

eter and is set diagonally across the
depth of the tank to facilitate the cir
culation Of the water. The flame
plays against the tube and heats the
water, which, being expanded. passes
out at the upper end of the tube, giving
place to cooler water coming in at the
lower end.
The chimney (e) is tin. as is also the
flue ~. The chimney fits over pro-
lection of the flue under the tank.
The chimney should be made short
enough to let the flame barely touch
the tube.
The lamp occupies an apartment un-
der the tank, the tank constituting the
top or cover of the lamp box. Our
lamp box is thirteen inches high,
hooked at the corners and has two
small doors at the side (back side), for
convenience in handling lamps. This

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

THIS is the time to buy seeds for next
year and plan for the crops to be
grown, not overlooking the garden ir

BONANZA farms do not pay as much
per acre as the small farms. Farming
depends more upon skill than upon the
area cultivated.
IT is not freezing that damages
apples, but thawing. Keep them il
some place where the temperature
changes but little.
TAKE up the study of certain crop,
and be prepared to put the knowledge
into practice next spring.

the young Guineas better than their
natural mother. because the latter are
more given to roaming. When young.
they are delicate, like the turkey, and re-

to disease. Feed the chicks often, say
with hard-boiled eggs, chopped fine,
and little stale bread crumbs After
three or four weeks old, give meal wet

little onion or garlic, and pau of sour

meat will do them good for an oc-

PROPER SELF RESPECT.

A writer who, like Pope, believes
'the proper study of mankind Is
man, and who has carried out this
belief to its legitimate conclusion,
gives the following interesting OBJ
servations upon the nature and
character of his fellows:
Teach man to think meanly and
contemptibly of himself, to cast of
all sense of character and all con-
sciousness of a superior nature, and
moral persuasion can no more act
upon such a man than if he were
dead. A man may be addicted to
many vices, and yet there may be a
hope of retaining him. But the mo-
nent he loses all sense of character
and all consciousness of superior
nature-that is, the moment he be-
gines to look upon himself and his
vices as worthy of one another,
that moment all hope of retaining
linn perishes; for the last ground is
surrendered on which it is possible
for his remaining good principles to
rally and make stand. We have
often known men who hayeretained
their self respect long after they
had lost their regard for principle;
but never one who retained his re
gard for principle after he had lost
his self respect. Destroy this and
you destroy everything; for a man
