The Newspaper Man.

How dear TO my heart lis the steady
subscriber,
Who pays In advance at the birth of
the year;
Who lays down his money, and does
it quite gladly,
An casts round the office a halo of
cheer
He never says: "Stop it, cannot af-
ford it,
Nor "I'm getting more papers than
now L can read"
But always says, "Send it, the family
enjoy it;
In fact, we all think it real house,
hold need.
How welcome he is, when he steps in
the sanctum;
How he makes our heart throb; who
he makes our heart dance.
We Outwardly thank him, we inward
ly bless him
The steady subscriber who pays in
advance
But may the Lord give us action, on
GDe sue snOW aCtTdcIlOn,
Who takes out our paper, for year
after year,
And then when we meet him, and
kindly entreat him,
To give us our money, he gets on his
ear
And tells us to stop it, and never more
drop it
In the postofiice box, with the rest o.
his mail;
And refuses to pay us and dares to ar
ray us
With swindlers and ICON" men who
should be in Jail
Yes, Lord. make us able, by a turn of
the table,
To get what is due us, from this slick
old, hoo-doo;
And we'll stay on the "level," In
spite of the devil;
And pay all our bills before they are
due. Cotton Journal.

In yesterdays Times Dispatch sug-
costing the appropriateness of

pository of Confederate flags. The
writer says: GAS l stovd and

ate flags, in somewhat similar
manner to the W.T. the battle-Aags

find a more appropriate rerting-

tomb OF the man who for four long |
vesrs guarded them so valIanlly2"
The Timss-Dispatch approves
the suggestion, and says that the

statue, surrounded by the mute
witness of his country's colors,
