Mien? the brass horns as they blow them!
■* See them, how blatant and bold !
? - Rebels will now hardly know them,
Bilk by their backs, as of old.
Who is their enemy ? See him 1
Broken bv manifold ill,
Death standingready to free him —
Weak, but a gentleman still.
Once a proud people crowned him,
Placed him in highest command;
Then the crazed victors bound him,
Lowest of all in the land;
Never they bent or broke him,
Though they could fitter his frame;
Never his courage forsook him,
Never he stooped to shame.
Victory ne’er could elate him,
Never defeat overthrow,
Honor could easily sate him,
Strong was he under his woe.
Now, he is conquered, but standing
Upright before us all;
Still is his aspect commanding,
Proud and erect in his fall.
Nothing he mutters of anger,
Hate in his heart is not found ;
Speaks but to rouse from their languor
Hearts that are bowed to the ground.
Howl at this man; but he hears not.
Hiss; but he does not care.
Threaten and curse; but he fears not.
Strike; but he bids you not spare.
Rail at the oak of the forest!
Blast it with lightning and hail!
Still. when the storm beats the sorest,
What docs your anger avail?
Howl; but you never can move him,
Silent and calm and strong.
H<*re will his people love him—
Yonder will God judge his wrong.

The Cork Trade.
The Boston cork trade amounts to about
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per
yAtr? This branch Os business, though suf
fering of course, in common with ill others,
from the influence of the panic, has not
quite reached that dead level of stagnation
from which some branches of trade are suf
fering. The raw material from which corks
are manufactured is all imported, and, as a
duty of five cent, was placed upon ma
terial about a year ago, the prices of corks
have not partaken of the general down v «rd
tendency. Business in this line of trade is
always more sluggish in the winter than in
a brfalc trtnlfe is’not, ; expected
at this season of the year. The sales of
cork dealers are made to druggists, bottlers
and retailers of beverages, and it will read
ily be sc’ui that the orders which come
from the last mentioned class of customers
would be much greater in summer than in
winter. Most of the corkwood comes from
Spain, though a*n inferior quality is brought
from other countries on the shores of the
Mediterranean, especially from Sicily. This
material b the bark of the cork-tree, so
called, a tn e of the oak spec is. none of
which grow in this country. The bark is
thick or thin, according to the age of the
tr*’<*, and that which is use 1 bv cork man
ufacturers varies from Lull an inch to three
inches in thickness. The exterior appear
ance of the bark does not differ much from
the interior, nqd resembles the appearance
of hemlock bark after being scrapc i some
what, except that cork bark is considerably
lighter in color. A cork tree may be strip
ped of its bark completely, iukl a new bark
will form in the course of seven or eight
years. The'cork is rande up of concentric
liark layers, in the same way the wood part
of the tree is made up of conc< ntric wood
layers, and by ascertaining the number of
layers the age of the bark or tree can be de.
termined. Tne bark is filled with pores
running from side to side, and for this rea
son the cork manufacturer so cuts it that
these pores may not run lengthwise of the
cork when made. The material is first cut
into what are called straightx’orks, and ta
pering corks arc made from these by paring
one end. The corks are sorted into three
qualities, and are then ready for market.
The raw material is bought by the pound,
white tlie corks arc Bold by the gross. The
bits of cork wasted in the m inufacture are
mixed with tar and sold in cakes for fuel.—

How to Make a Goor Mother tn-Law
—A good son-in-law usually makes a good
mother-in-law. But there are exceptions,
and it is the exceptions that the peculiar dis
order known as motherinlawism is based.
The only effectual cure is to marry the
mother-in-law. That is an infallble remedy.
If you cannot marry her yourself get anoth
er man to do so. But marry her yourself
if possible. Any such small impediments
as having a living wife and children, need
not hinder you. A resolute mother-in law
knows no impossibility but that of letting
her daughter’s husband rest in peace. Hus
banding will cure her in a week. What
arsenic and the bootjack will not do for her
an elopement will; and a run away match
with a mother-in-law is the killingest of ex
periences and converts a blister into a bliss
in a twinkling.—[Ex.
An asylum for cats and dogs is one of
the institutions of Philadelphia. It has been
in active operation for the past year, and
during that time many felines and canines,
who-have strayed from the path of recti
tude, have been brought back, taught to see
the folly of their wicked ways, and now oc
cupy high positions in society by the fireside
in parlors of elegant mansions. The asy
lum is now comfortably filled with a large
numbt r of patients. All these unfortunates,
no matter from whom they are received,
are tenderly cared for, and if they are so far
gone as to be beyond the reach of human
aid, their last hours are soothed by the
hands of tender nurses. The felines are
thoroughly drilled in their catechism, and
the canines in all the dogmas of their
church.

had words together, To show her that I

still she tried to su’k and sigh, And throw

MONEY MADE.
I desire to call the attention of all
those who owe me anything, that
their accounts and notes are now
due, and that I am compelled io
have money. We have been bless
ed with bountiful crops, and all
can pay who are so disposed, as I
will take corn, fodder, wheat, oats,
rye, cotton, peas, potatoes, pork,
and almost everything, in payment
of debts due me. So 1 hope my
old friends and customers will re
spond liberally to this call, for by
so doing they will save cost ancT
their good name at the same time.
I mean business, when I say that I*
am compelled to have money. All
those who are indebted to the firm
of McAfee & Mobs must pay
accounts and notes at once. Those
failing to do so, or to make satis
factory arrangements, will certainly
find their accounts in the hands of
collecting officers.
I want to purchase 10,000 bun
dles of fodder and 1,000 bushels of
corn, for which I will pay goods er
cash to those not indebted to me.
I have now got, and am receiv
ing daily, one of the largest and
best selected stocks of goods ever
exhibited in North Georgia, which
I propose to well very cheap for
cash or barter. I am determined
to sell as low* as the lowest, as my
experience in business and facili
ties for buying are not excelled 5 !)/
any in this country. We—l mean
myself and clerks—invite all the
children and ladies to call before
purchasing elsewhere, as we will
give all the children candy and
love all the ladies.
