At The Old Years Grave.

BY the grave of the old year
stood a little child, with all arm
full of flowers. The light of the
Morning was on his brow, the
faith of the Future in his radi-
ant eyes. One by one the fow-
ers fell upon the grave. till it
was hidden beneath a crimson
canopy. Some were flowers of
Joy, and some were flowers of
tears; some were the roses of
sweet song, and some were mems
ories of signs. But over all
there fell the lilies Of Love, and
that fair flower whose sweeter
name is Hope. And glorlously
streamed the light from the far,
eastern hills. Glad voices foat>
ed heavenward. There was a
sound of silver trumpets-a mel
ody of bells. And the child
still faced the Future, and if a
teardrop trembled in his eyes it
was kissed away of Light. And
he passed, singing, into the
cearts and homes of men, her
aided by Hope, and welcomed
by the music of the rejoicing
bells.-Frank Stanton, in At
lanta Constitution.

NO EXTRA SESSION.
Not Much Likelihood Chat One win
Be Called

Governor Tyler has not yet made UP his
mind as to whether or not he will convene
the present General Assembly in special
session for the purpose of providing for
the election and holding of the Constitu-
tional Convention.
He stated yesterday that in arriving
at a conclusion on the subject, he would
be guided by the wishes of the people
and that he would consult the leading
men of the party in the State and ascer-
tain their views.
..Another thing, SAID the Governor;
(which I shall look to in making, up my
mind is the pledge of the Norfolk Conven-
ton that the expenses incident to changes
in the organic law of the State should be
kept down as much as possible.
The Governor did not care to say more
for publication until he had looked fur
ttler into the matter
The sentiment in favor of an extra ses-
sion OF the present Legislature, seems very
general among Democratic leaders here
With one accord however, they favor
deferring action in the matter until after
the national election this fall They point
out that a further agitation Of the ques-
ton at this time would probably have the
effect of making the National Republican
Committee redouble their energies In the
State and very likely endanSer the cleo
ton of some of the Democratic nominees
for Congress.
1t is. therefore, altogether, unlikely that
the General Assembly will be convened
before next winter to consider the mat
ter.
Most of the party leaders here seem to
favor a special session in January and the
election of the delegates the following
spring.
