The Yenr,s Crown.
From scribners Magazine


Spring has her changeful skies, her
waking leaves
Summer her lavish dover of bloom and
balm:
And Autumn has her days of golden
calm
Rich pauses when, forgetting she bereaves
The world of Summer, she no longer
grieVeS.
She smiles How well-beloved a queen
amt
Lingering to hear the lands Thanks
giving psalm
For wealth of fragrant fruit and garnered
SheaVeS.
But winter is the monarch of the year
When wild winds make the giant pines
their harp,
And joy of Christmastide is at the food.
Only to those who miss a presence dear
The thorns of Winters holly-crown are
sharp,
And ali its berries CLEAN like drops of
blood.

1t is to be hoped that with the new year
the park and tree commission will again
set 20 work on the parks. squares. streets,
etc. What the commission dId in the way
of Improving Forsyth PARK and the old
cemetery should excuse it for any mis-
takes it might have made in the manage
ment of its budget. Like all new depart
ures, the first efforts OF the commission
were to a considerable extent experimental,
and consequently were more costly than
similar work would probably be after eX-
perience had been gained. There is so
much that could be done TO improve the
city that every citizen feels a personal in
terest in having the work OF the park and
tree commission resumed at the earliest
practicable moment. The city council
should be as liberal in its appropriation for
this commission as the finances of the city
will permit.

That strong, weak Message.


A few days ago it was announced that
the forthcoming message of the President
would be exceedingly mild in tone and
without any vigor. Now ii is stated that
those who have read the document pro-
nounce it one of the strongest sent to
congress for many years, all of which
gives rise to a well founded suspicion
that no one except the President and
perhaps, his cabinet knows anything
about the matter.

General Horace Porter, In Cam
says concerning General Grants secre-
tiyeness:
After the general had got some miles

officer Of rank joined him. and as they
rode along began to explain a plan
which he had sketched, providing for
the construction of another line Of in
trenchments some distance in rear Of the
lines then held by US, to be used in case
the army should ut any time want to
fall back and move toward the James
and should be attacked while with
drawing. The general kept on smoking
his cigar, listened to the proposition for
"a time and then quietly remarked to the
astonished officer, 1.-The army has al

This is mentioned as an instance of
how well his secrets could be kept. He
had never been a secretive man until the
positions of responsibility in which he
was placed compelled him to be chary

Joint resolution recognizing the bell

100 to 500 poUrds, being considerably
heavier when first in frc1n the sea in

are especially long and numerous ON the

so called wig"
The wigged males have a rough,
coarse coat, and their skins are without
