THE ATHENS GEORGIAN: MAY 1, 1877.
ICO
Cary's Sweetest Pooaaa-
•f,jj the beautiful pictures
That bang on memory’s wall,
Is one of a dim old forest,
That seemeth best of all;
|Nct for its knarled oaks olden,
Dark with the mistletoe,
|jsot for the violets golden
That sprinkle the vale below;
[Not for the milk white lilies t
‘ That lean from the fragrant hedge,
| Coqucttiug all «’iay with the sunbeams,
And stealing their golden edge;
|Nor for the vines on the upland,
\y here the bright red berries rest;
| Nor the pinks, nor the pale sweet cowslip,
It seemeth to me the best.
|l once had a little brother,
With eyes that were dark and deep,
[lu the lap of the golden forest
lie 15‘ith in peace asleep;
I Light as the down of the thistle,
Free as the winds that blow,
| We roved there the beautiful summers,
The summers of long ago;
[bat his fret on the hills grew weary,
And one of the autumn eaves
[ I made for my little brother ]
A bed of the yellow leaves.
[sweetly bis pale arms folded
My neck in a meek en brace,
| As the light of immortal beauty
Silently covered his face;
j And when the urrows of sunset
Lodged in the tops bright ^ ^ _
|He fell, in his saint-like beauty,
Asleep by the gates of light,
therefore, of all pictures
That hang on memory’s wall,
Iff he one df the dim old forest *
Seemeth best of all.
Mrs. Hayes, at first, absolutely op*
posed having any wine at the dinner
at all, as she is strictly a temperance
woman, and the President himself
does not.drink; hut Col. Casey;^Mas
ter of CefemomcowtrllwSVh^fcHouBe,
and the officers of the State Depart"
ment accustomed to have charge of
like eeVemOuifAs,’ £xfhjst$rt&ted* tfith
Mrs. Hayes that the Russian guests
had really little conception of what a
cold-water dinner mt^it t>e, and
would probably misconstrue the ab
sence of wine. Mrs. ^Hayes reluc
tantly consented that wine should be
provided for the rest of the guests,
but she positively informed Col.
Casey, who is Commissioner of Publi
Buildings and Grounds in place b
Gen. Babcock, and who will have
charge of all State occasions at the
White House, that hereafter, when
citizens of the United* States are
entertained at the White House,
arrangements must be made to ex
clude wine.

THE ATHENS
Furniture Manufacturing
COMPANY.
Believing that Athens, and the section of
country around, should have, and would cor
dially support a first-class
Furniture Store and Factory
we have entered into a partnership, bought out
the Machinery and store of Gilleland, Wood &
Co., and the store of J. F. Wilson & Co., and
determined to give the business a fair trial nnder
the firm name of the Athens Furniture Manu
facturing Company.
At the store occupied by J F. Wilson & Co.,
we propose to keep a stock of Furniture equaled
by few and surpassed by none in the State. Mr.
Jay O.Gaileynas charge of this department,
and will be pleased to wait on any desiring
goods in this line.
At the stand of Gilleland, Wood & Co. we
will keep all goods of our own manufacture,
such as Bedsteads, Tables, Chairs, etc., and in
addition will keep a large and well selected
stock of Coffins, Burial Cases, etc. Mr. W. L.
Wood will give his personal attention to this
department.
