REMEMBERING HAPPIER THINGS. ‘‘A sorrow’s crown of sorrow is Remembering happier things,” The poet sadly says; but ah ! ll'mem’ry to us brings No token Iromthe by-gone daj s, No sweet refrain, or glen in Of happier things, this life would be lioredrear than we oan dream, Could wc recall sad hours alone And not the hours ot bliss— The wreath from which the ,flow’rs> are plucked. And thorny crown were this. Must we think only of sad things, Remembering them alone, With not an echo from the past Of pleasure’s cheering tone? All I uo, life then, and then indeed It’s sorrow’s cro\yn \yeußLigear._., And solace in our woe ! It may be but a kindly glance, Or sweet word utter’d low; Cr tender touch of hands which stray our pain-wrenched hearts among, And tune to joyful strains the strings Long broken and unstrung. But oh ! let me recall them, they Are atolls in the sea Ot trouble, to which, when storm-tossed, . Our hearts for rulugc flee. Blest boon of sweet “rememo’ranee” that A second life bestows, Upon the happy things that were— Like l’ossidonia’s rose That puts forth from its dying heart A fre.-h, new blooming flow’rs; Thus when joys die, oh! give to us Muemosyne’s bless’d flow’r, Hattie. ‘‘Bonnie Brook,” near Cassville, Ga. :he Tenipprance People. The temperance movement is on he qui vive in this community, and he friends of the cau-e seem deter- Mined that nothing shall oe left uh lone that will exterminate the traf fic ot liquor in the county. They have been trying long enough to win men to temperance by moral suasion and now they are going to make them, nolens volens, keep sober. We bid them God speed. If their efforts will save one tear from the eye lids of a drunkards wife, if it will save oae pang from the heart of drunk art’s child, if it will snatch one dime fnm a drunkard’s hand and give it talijs starvelings, instead of to the bir-keeper, we bid it God speed.

Our little village was blessed with a beautiful shower of rain Friday evening and with Pomp Johnson’s ice cream and lemonade made every one feel cool and fresh f r Pi of. Marsh’s exhibition. The boy band of Cartersviile, head ed with Prof. Harwell, gave us some fine and elegant music. We predict a bright and glorious fu-ture for the boys and hope fhaf i-ueeess will crown all their efforts. The exhibition was quite a success, for such u beautiful array of little misses and boys and every one ac quitted themselves nicely. “Brother Wadkim ” was elegantly delivered by Marshal Sikes, which was highly pleasing to the whole au dience. The negro sermon was well preached by Johnny Sproull and his attire was a perfect model of an old [ tiegro preacher with a face as blab i as jet and a voice very lam liar, espe cially with the colored brethren. The public debate of Willie Hen derson, Charlie McCormre, Robert McGinnis, Juby Sproutl and Marion Shelman with Joby Sproull as chair man, was very laughable indeed. The subject was, “does iovo lie in the heart or soul? ” The president c mid not decide the mooted question, so he was bribed by one side with a nickle. We would like to mention others but space will not allow. Prof. Marsh deserves great credit for such a brilliant entertainment, for most of lus students were very young with their first exhibition, yes, the Pro fessor does really deserve much com mendation for he is very young, modest and awful*) timid that the girls have no chance to enjoy his love making. But he mu tbe im proving for not long since he was seen by an eye witness smiling and looking lovely out of his eyes to wards a dozen young ladies. Lo k V..U •-* ...

Every person will be afforded ample amusement, and a full day’s enjoyment. A Fine Kxhil)itiou. The private exhibition of Prof. Marshall’s school, alluded to last week came off with great satisfaction to the teacher, pupils and patrons. The exercises consisted of declamas lion and recitations interspersed with music. We hid not have the good fortune to attend, much to our regret, but from what we can learn from those present we can certainly say it was a pleasant occasion.
