Railroads.

Swainsboro. Ga, Sept. AT recent
meeting of the Board Of Trade of the
city of Swainsboro, resolutions were
adopted asking the railroads leading
to this point for better freight rates

entirely too high, and it is claimed

fred Harrington was appointed to take
the matter up with the railroads, and
will begin their duty at once. 1t is
hoped that a reasonable rate will be
granted by the roads.

The British museum, the great Euro

While the fertile fields are freightcd with

And the leaves of red and russell from the

Touched with fervent farewell kisses Dy

And the swallows have departed 10 the

when the grass has left the meadow and
the green has left the HILL
And the only fcathered sOngstcr Is the

When the apples In the orchard and the
sumacs leaves are red
And the ouails are loudly piping in the
stubble where they fed!
oh, the brilliant autumn season. the most
brilliant Of the year,
When the gorgeous groves are cleaning
ere the leaves begin 20 scar.
When the maple boughs are crimson and
the hickry's leaves are gold
And the days are sutry summer and the
nights are wintry cold
When the river is blue as steel and the
sky Is clear as glass
And the mist Is on the mountain and the
hoarfrOst on the grass;
when the harvest is all garnered and the
farmers work Is done
And the hillsides are resounding with the
