FOREVER AXO FOREVER.
I think of all thou art to me,
I dream of what thou caret not be;
My life is curst with thoughts of thee
Forever and forever!
My heart is full of grief and woe,
I see thy face wher’er I go;
I would, alas, it were not so
Forever and forever I
Perchance if we had never met,
I had been spared this mad regret,
This endless striving to forget,
Forever and forever!
Perchance if thou wert far away,
Did I not see thee day by day,
I might again be blithe and gay
Forever and forever!
Ah, no ! I could not bear the pain
Os never seeing thee again I
I cling to thee with might and main,
Forever and forever 1
Ah, leave me not! I love but thee ’
Blessing or curse, which e’er thou be,
Oh 1 be as thou hast been to me
Forever and forever ’
FACT AND FANCY.
3y the farm house gate at the old coach
road,
"With her parcels packed by her side, they
strode;
’Twas early in September,
And the clinging hands, and the words
they spoke,
And the quick warm flashes of light that
broke
From the eyes of each a thought awoke,
'Which both might well remember.
"Would they meet again ? ’Twas all he
said,
Might he call ? He saw she was sore
afraid,
And with some sad memory worried
"No, no,” she said, and she blushed for
shame,
And she pressed his hand and she breath
ed his name,
As the old stage coach with a rumble came
And off to the town she hurried.
And long through his mind wild fancies
stole
Os a maid who pined ’neath some fierce
control
And sighed at her window casement,
And the thought of her purse-proud par
ents bore
A sting to the heart and it grieved him
sore;
Nor dreamt he she worked in a fancy store
And lived in a down town basement.
“AT HOME.”
When I was dead my spirit turned
To seek the much-frequented house;
I passed the door and saw my friends
Feasting beneath green orange
boughs.
From hand to hand they pushed the
wine;
They sucked the pulp of plum and
peach.
They sang, they jested and they laughed.
For each was loved by each.
I listened to their honest shout;
Said one, "To-morrow we shall be
Plodding along the featureless sands,
And coasting miles and miles of sea.”
Baid one, "Before the turn of tide
We will achieve the eyrie seat.”
Baid one, "To-morrow shall be like
To-day, but much more sweet.”
To-morrow ! said they strong with hope,
And dwelt upon the*pleasant way, "
To-morrow ! ciied they, one and all,
While nn one spoke of yesterday,
Their life B'ood full of blessed noon;
I, only I, had passed away,
To-morrow and to day, they cried;
I was of yesterday.
I shivered comfortless, but oast
No chill across the table cloth;
I, all forgotten, shivered, sad
To stay and yet to part so loth.
I passed from the familiar room,
I, from whom love had passed away,
Like the remembrance of a guest
That tarrieth but a day.

SEASONABL.E JINGLES
(BomervHle Journal.)
September’s here at last,
The holidays are past,
The small boy now must take his way to
school, school, school;
The wriggling worm rejoices,
The bullfrcgs turn their voices,
And perch and pickerel giggle in the pool,
pool, pool.
The fishing lines and hooks
Give place to slates and books,
To primers, readers, spellers, maps, and
things, things, things.
The bat is put away
Until some future day;
All these and other changes autumn brings,
brings, brings.
The druggist’s eyes no more
His customers explore
To catch the meaning spoken in a wink,
wink, wink;
The weather’s growing cold,
He needs not to be told
The nature of the beverage they'll drink,
drink, drink.
The fly has had his day,
No more he’ll frisk and play,
And skate upon the glossy, shining crown,
crown, crown;
The bald man’s overjoyed,
His enemy destroyed,
■Jn peace once more he soon will sit him
down, down, down.
And now the ladies, bless* em I
When gone how much we miss' em—
Are from the beaches coming home in
scores, scores, scores;
Where lately they’ve been stopping,
And now they’ll go a-shopping,
And overrun the various dry good stores,
tetore, stores.
MILLIONAIRE AND BAREFOOT.
’Tis evening, and the round, red sun sinks
slowly in the west,
The flowers fold their petals up, the birds
fly to the nest.
The crickets chirrup in the grass, the bats
flit to and fro,
And tinkle-tankle up the lane the lowing
cattle go ;
And the rich man from his carriage looks
out on them as they come
On them and on the Barefoot Boy that
drives the cattle home.
wish,” the boy says to himself—"l
wish that I were he,
And yet, upon maturer thought, I do not—
no, sir-ret 1
Not for all the gold his coffers hold would
I be that duffer there,
With a liver pad and a gouty toe and
scarce a single hair;
To have a wite with a Boman nose and
fear lest a panic come
Far better to be the Barefoot Boy that
drives the cattle home.”
And the rich man murmurs to himself :
"Would I give all my pelf
To change my lot with yonder boy ? Not
if I know myself.
Over the grass that’s full of ants and chill
with dew to go,
With a stone-bruise upon either heel and a
splinter in my toe;
Oh, I’d rather sail my yacht a year across
the ocean’s foam
Than be one day the Barefoot Bey that
drives the cattle home.”

LETTER FROM MADISON.
Morgan Superior Coart—.Judge Lawson
—Messrs. Cumming and Carroll Rep
resent Augusta ‘the Capitol
Commissioners Satisfactory—
A Precedent for Appoint
ing a Lawyer on the
Board—Hon. A. L.
Miller.
(Correspondence of the Chronicle.)
Madison, September 16.—Quite a while
has elapsed since the date of the writer’s
last letter to the Chronicle. That was
written last May, soon after the delivery of
the Confederate memorial address in Mad
ison, by Hon. W. F. Jenkins, of Eatonton,
and its main object was to commend
that address, after reviewing it, to the fu
ture memorial orators of Georgia. There
was more of the "utile cum dulce” in it
than in any address of the kind ever de
livered in Madison, and so gratified were
our people by its originality and practical
application as well as its beauty,that I felt
constrained, in their behalf, to give some
exoression to the popular verdict concern
ing it.
The fall term of our Superior Court was
held last week, Judge Lawson presiding.
Right here I would say that no Circuit in
the State can have an abler or more impar
tial Judge than the Ocmulgee. Judge
Lawson would, in the civil sphere, "illus
trate Georgia,” on her Supreme Bench;
and he was the writer’s choice for the seat
in that tribunal now occupied by Justice
Blanford, Augusta was well represented
at the Court. In the cases of Partee vs.
the Georgia Railroad, and Fannin vs. Fos
ter, Major J. B. Cumming, for the road,
and M. P. Carroll, Esq., for Fannin, re
spectively, made efforts before the Court
and jury which won high and deserved
encemiums. Major Cumming, 1 believe,
has won every case for the road he has yet
argued in this county; and, assisted by Col.
Billups, he has defended quite a number
of such cases here within the past
several years, including the rather famous
case of Johnson, who sought damages from
the company because he was denied the
privilige of riding in the ladies coach of
the passenger train in his shirt sleeves
With the exception of the railroad cases
and that of Fannin vs Foster, there was
but little business of interest before the
court. There was other cases, however,
in which four successive sffidavits of ille
gality had been filed, the fourth then pend
ing, the same case having taken one trip
to the Supreme Court with a judgment
against the first affidavit of illegality. In
view of the rule of court that tolerates no
second affidavit of illegality, I mention
this case as one of those legal peculiarities
that will crop out every now and then
in defiance of all rules and precedents.
But as your readers are not all law
yers, I will try to take up something else.
The appointment of the Capitol Com
missioners, as made by the Governor, is
approved by our people without a dissen
tent voice. * A strong array of our best citi
zens united in a writt n testimonial in be
half of George W. Adair who was an appli
cant for one of the places on the board. In
view of his fine business qualities, his ac
quaintance with real estate, and his de
cided integrity of character as proven by
his unselfish and honest course toward his
creditors when he failed several years ago,
his appointment, if the Governor had seen
fit to make it, would have been peculiarly
gratifying to Morgan county, in which he
was chiefly raised and where he has many
staunch friends and relatives. But no
fair minded man can gainsay the wisdom
of the appointment, as made, of men of
such undoubted character and compe
tency.
On the subject of executive appoint
ments I find a good deal of interest in
"Spark’s Writings of Washington” and a
precedent for the appointment of a lawyer
on a board for the supervision of public
buildings. General Washington, then
(1.794) President of the United States, in
naming the "Commissioners of the Fed
eral District,” whose almost exclusive
duties consisted in engineering to com
pletion the various public buildings, in
cluding the Capitol at Washington, said
that "one of the’ Commissioners ought to
be well read in* law,” and for that,
reason, among other inducements, placed
a Mr. Potts, a lawyer, on the Board.
In so vast a concern as a million
dollar building, with its numerous details,
not a few legal questions may arise. The
Governor acted wisely in deciding upon a
lawyer, and with conspicuous wisdom in
selecting Hon. A. L. Miller, of Perry, to
be one of the Commissioners. The writer
was in a law class at the University of Vir
ginia in 1873 with Mr. Miller, and was so
favorably impressed with his promising
abilities as to predict that he would some
day be Governor of Georgia ; nor has he
yet withdrawn his prediction. An able
and worthy member of the legal profes
sion and a gentleman of the highest and
best type of character, he will fill this new
position most admirably.
It may not be uninteresting to quote
further on the same subject from the same
high authority. Gen. Washington, still
President, in response to a private letter
from Mary Wooster, the widow of Gen.
Wooster, who died of wounds received
from the British at Danbury m the Revo
lutionary war, wrote at great cost, evi
dently, to his personal feelings, the fol
lowing sternly patriotic words :
"I have duly received your affecting let
ter, dated the Bth day of this month.
Sympathizing with jou, as I do, in the
great misfortunes which have befallen
your family in consequence of the war, my
feelings as an individual would forcibly
prompt me to do everything in my power
to repair thosejnisfortunes. But as a pub
lic man, acting only with reference to the
public good, I must be allowed to decide
upon all points of my duty, without
consulting my private inclinations and
wishes. I must be permitted, with the
best lights I can obtain, and upon a gen
eral view of characters and circumstances,
to nominate such persons alone to of
fices as in my judgment shall be the best
qualified to discharge the functions of the
departments to which they shall be ap
pointed. I only wish, so far as my agency
in this business is concerned, that candi
dates for offices would save themselves
the trouble and consequent expense of
personal attendance. All that I require is
the name and such testimonials with re
spect to abi ities, integrity And fit
ness as it may be in the power of the several
applicants to produce. Beyond this,nothing
with me is necessary or will be of any
avail to them in my decisions.” • • • • •
To those of,-your readers who are un
able to attend the Southern Exposition,
the inimitable letters of "H. W. C.” from

His description of the great picture
"Mount Whitney” by Beirstadt, is a

During a recent visit to Cartersville, I
was entertained by a friend with a ride up
the Etowah river, and visited in our route )
the ruins of tb‘ once celebrated Cooper
Iron Works. The venerable Mark A.
Cooper, once the proprietor of these works,
still lives tear them, now more than 80
years old. Durirg a memorable ante
bellum panic, he was on the point of
failure with his great enterprise, but cer
tain friends came forward with their money
and their names and shielded him from the
impending crash. Thus enabled to con
tinue operations, he signalized his grati
tude to his whole suuled helpers by erect
ing near the site of the main furnace a su
perb marble shaft whose base bears this
inscription :
"This monument is erected by Mark A
Cooper, Proprietor at Etowah, as a grate
ful tribute to the friendship and liberality
of these whose names are hereon inscribed,
which prompted 13 em to aid him in the
prosecution and developments of the inter

A beautiful conception was this monu

HEAR THE _WIT*ESSES :
Saved from a Horrible Death!
Up to May last I had spent at least five hun
dred dollars for treatment by many of the beat
medical men, without any benefit. I suffered
excruciatingly, and all my friends advised me
that the icy hand of death was fist approach
ing. I caught at 8. 8. H. like a irowning man
at a straw. After taking two bottles I could
feel a change for the better. The so'es began
to discharge freely and the Rheumatism to
abate. When I had taken six bottles every
sore had healed and my skin began to assume
a natural appearance. I persisted until I had
taken twelve bottles, large size, and THERE
IS NOT A SYMPTOM OF THE DISEASE RE
MAINING, and I feel as well as I ever did. I
have gained twenty-one pounds in flesh, and
my friends wonder at my improved condition.
I have recommended it to many, and in every
instance with complete success. I believe that
