Street moon, I love thee, yet I grieve
To gam on thy pale orb to-night,
It tell* me of that butt dear eve
I passed with her, my sour* delight
Hill, vale, and wood and stream were dyed
In tire jrale glory of Uty tieams,
A* we wandered side by aide.
Once mere to tell love's burning dreams.
Mr fund arm was her living home.
Sly band within her hand waa pressed.
And love waa in each earnest tone,
And rapture in each heaving breast.
And many a high and fervent n>w
Was breathed from bet full heart ami

W Idle thy calm light waa on her brow,
Like pure religion * seal and sign.
We knew, alas! that wo must part.
We knew we must be severed long,
a W Joy was in each throbbing heart.
For yrve was deep, ai»l faitu wa* stronp.
A thousand memories of the past
Were busy In each glowing breast.
And hope ti|>nn the future east
Her raiulstw lints—and we were blest.

Tliere wa* a wild, delirious bliss —
And didst thou ever gar.-.', sweet moon,
L'pini a more impamiomal kiss?
Tlte parting came—one moment brief
Her dim and fainting form I viewed
'Twaa gone—and there I stood in grief
Amid life's awful solitude.
Tell ute, sweet union—for lltou enlist tell—
If passion still unchanged is Iter's;
Do thought.*, of in: her heart still swell,
Among Iter many worshipiaTsf
Nay, ilia's she sometimes wander now,
At eve, beneath Uty Maine,
To raise to heaven her angel brow.
And breathe her nb-eut lover’s name :
Oh! wlien Ute gentle lid are wet,

And ti ll me If my image yet

Bandy loam, in a hanging basket, and
water occasionally. It will throw out
tendrils and beautiful leaves, and
will climb freely over the arms of the
basket and upward toward tlte top of

Remedy fob Felon,— The following
ia pronounced an infallible cure for a
felon : llluc flag root and wild turnip
root, a handful of each, Btewcd in a
half a pint of hog’s lard —strain it off,
add to it four tablespoonfuls of tar,
simmer them together; apply this oint
ment to the felon till it breaks. Add
beeswax and rosin to the ointment for
a salve to dress it after it is broken.

tained.

1 morning for three successive days, is
reported as a sure cure for fever and
ague.

! Hurrah for old Georgia! Hurrah
! for the white Democracy of Georgia!
! She has iieon true to her instinctive
love of liberty and right, and to ltcr
traditional renown for intelligence
and bravery, and Iws fought her en
emy and whipped him. The victory
is recorded in n large majority In the
Legislature, and five out of the seven
Congressmen of the State. Governor
Unltock has to be tolerated another
year, for lie was not in the field to he
hoisted as a trophy of justice on the
Bi>enr of the Georgia Democracy. We
heartily congratulate tin? noble old
£lato on her triumph, the news of
which will send a thrill of joy from
end to end through this wide land of
States. Grant’s Attorney General
was sent to Georgia to lick an elec
tion law into a shape to make the
Radical victory sure, in vain.
Three thousand Federal bayonets
failed of the purpose for which they
were unlawfully sent, and Georgia
follows up North Carolina, New York
and A labania, to enforce the lesson
upon that would Ik: military tyrant,
that the spirit of Democracy is V.'Ji
yet so far crushed that it not
to vote its convictions, its principles
aud its judgments in the presence of
American soldiers. Grant has made
many stupid blunders ; but his grand
est Jiaaco lit political tactics is hia
new bayonet exercise. If a sensible
idea can get into his head, he must,
by this time, have learned Unit the
people nre not yet prepared lor the
yoke of his imperial government.
Georgia counts one more Stale iu tlte
coliigm of Democratic States for 1873.
Harrell for Georgia! As one of her
sons, we would hug her for her manly
light and splendid victory .—Mobile

The Ames’ Mcuukk Cask.—Wo
find in the Dawson Journal, of the
Blli, tl.c following with reference to
the trial of one of the parties charged
with the murder of Col. Ames, the
well known circus proprietor:
Terrell Sujioririr Court adjourned
on Friday of last week to the first
Monday in February. The jury in the
ease of the Stale vs. John R. Kelley
returned a verdict of “ not guilty. ’
We would publish the testimony in
tilts case, ns promised, lint for the
|K>*tiK>neiiu:tit of the trial-of ChaiieH
A. Kelly unj.il FetM»Mj| -»lie riiato'a
Attorney reusing* to prosecute bn
account of the relationship existing
iK'tween himself and the accused. We
do not wish to prejudice the rights
of the accused, nor do we wish to stay
the hand of justice, and think prudence
would dictate to our brethren of the
press to withhold their judgment un
til the evidence is published. Col.
Ames expressed a wish on his death
lied that the parties who killed him
should not lie prosecuted, houce the
State was represented by Solicitor
General Darker alone, who conductey
the ense ill such a manner as to lead
us to botievc that the forces arrayed
for the dcfeucc were a little too heavd
for him.
Ariikkt or Memhkhs or this Cher
okee National Council —The Fed
eral government seems to be lording
it over law and the people every
where :
A gentleman who had just arrived
from Tallequan, the seat of govern
ment of the Cherokee nation, states
that on the 24 th of last month a
United States deputy marshal from
Van Rurcn, Arkansas, undertook to
take from the hands of the C’herolfce
sheriir a prisoner whom the latter
had arrested. William I*. ltoss and
Mr. Marge, mcmlicrs of the National
Council, advised the sheriir not to
submit, whereupon the deputy arrested
them, together witli the prisoner, and
took them all to Yan Huron. Much
excitement was caused by the con
duct of the deputy, as the Chcrokees
looked upon it as* flagrant violation
of their own recognized laws.
Rev. I)r. Earle, the Evangelist.
—Rev. Dr. Earle, a distinguished
Evangelist of the Baptist Church, is
producing a most wonderful effect in
various cities of the South. At Mo
bile he held a scries of mectiugs,
which resulted in a most jiowcrful
revival of religion. Recently, at
Memphis, he has been preaching with
even greater success than at Mobile.
The Appeal says that it puzzles an
occasional listener to account for
bis remarkable aucccas. His sermons
arc characterized by no unusual dis
play of thought, and hi* utterances
arc common place. Rut that ho
succeeds in attracting and influencing
the people as no other minister in
that part of the country, is freely
admitted, Ehd his success is almost
marvelous.

Look sharp.
A funny afltijr urcurred tlte other day
illustrating Uielmportauee of Imsiness men
looking on boll sid.-s of sernp |mper upon
which they ingy write orders, receipts or
messages. A yell known merchant having
a small lot of ikmagixl ami almost iinsaln
hie good* remsfliing from a large consign
ment, at last suc.-eedcd in “ working then
•iff.' aud -quota down to to* ttok wrote a
noli ’o ff ktmignor, aiisrHo.r/ttg the grat
ifying intellitteaec In those words .
"1 have at length succeeded in cloning
out those, by selling the whole lot to old
hcrnogiiis for a hundred dollars, aud glad
to get rid of them at any price. I'm so
all aid, even now , Ihu sharp old codger wifi
hack out, U.d I won’t let him have the
g.Msis till he pays the money."
At tills pilot the merchant was inter
rupted, and turning the note sheet I'ucv
downward* n Ids portfolio, went out into
Ids wnrchoo-K to attend to a customer. An
hour or two afterward*, ns he returned
having forgou-n the note entirely, Ncroo
gins’ clerk eners, hands a hundred dollar
hill, and asks for a receipt. The merchant
seizes the fir. i piece of |««|K-r before him,
dashes oifUu: receipt, and hands It to the
clerk.
What wa* bis consternation half an
afterwards, when the grinning clerk re
turned witlftiie message from hi* master,
“ Mr. Berlins want* to know If you
won’t give Hm another receipt on a clean
piece of pair,” to find that he had in.
scribed the fcknowlcilguieni on the back

hi* correspondent.

jpyr A little hoy was advised by
his father to use illustrations in bis
converse whenever they should occur
to him; “for," continued the parent,
“there is no more forcible way of
conveying or impressing your mcau
iug, especially to the young.”
Shortly after, the boy was being
lectured on generosity. “ It’s better
to give than receive, Johnny, far
better; tlte Bible says ao, and I say
so.”
“Illustrate it, pappy; I think 1
will understand you better.”

way Missouri acted and struck out the
whole tiling- He has no notion of pardon

Horace on Milnell (‘lowing.
A correspond -ntlbfthe Boston Post
continues to relate ridiculous stories
nliout Horace Greeley’s experience in
the Adirondacks. This is the last.
The philosopher also made the
mistake of keeping up “ his argu
ments” with the blunt backwoodsman
when they were not appreciated or
listened to. Iu fact, wltcti Horace,
to his owu satisfaction, demonstrated
that a certain piece of laud, so-called,
for it was really nothing but a surface
of limestone rock, could Ik? wade to
produce a crop of utrawberries, the
fiontiers-man put what he supposed
would be a crusher, by asking:
“ llow would you get a fttrrer deep
enough to plaut any thing 7”
I'UU question broke the whole liuo
of tlu? farmer's defense i, and Horace,
with the keen fMflfatgHmi Os Von
Mullkc, and the quickness to take
advantage of a break iu the liuo of
defense, so pcculinr to the first Na
poleon, triumphantly replied:
“Prepare the ground with subsoil
plowing.”
“With what?” said the country
man, drawing back us if from a luna
tic.
“Why,” said Horace, “I’d doit
with a subsoil plow, put into the sur
face of the lot, say threo feet.”
ThO sweat started on the poor
countryman's face, as he gasped out:
“ Make a furrer with a plow three
fi'ct thick in them tnrucl rocks! Why,
you cussed old fool, a yarthquake
couldn’t get down that far if it tried
six months I”

llow much of tine religiou U with
tlie poor! Christ seems to have ta
ken them under liis special charge.
His Gospel was preached to the poor,
and lids was one of the signs that
was sent to John the Baptist in prison.
With his own blessed hands he fed
the poor by a creative act, having
compassion on them wlicu they fainted.
His miracles, we have reason to think,
were, in the largo majority of the
instances, wrought ujioii the poor,
and “ the common people heard him
gludly." The Apostles at Jerusalem
were always anxious that l’aul should
remember Hie i>oor. Aml when Christ
shall Hit on his throne of judgment he
will make iuquest concerning alt wo
have done, or failed bo to do, in re
gard to the hungry, the naked, the
tkUitUger, tile pilsiiuvr, and ll*> siok,
aud will regard us as having done, or
failed so to do, ali this to himself.
There arc iniwerful motives to make
us think of the poor. Wheu it is well
with us we should remcnilicr them.
When we hear the stonu beating ujioii
our habitations, and yet are securely
sheltered, warmed nml fed, sitting
over our books or among our children,
we should think of the poor.

from Washington 'says that a renu

order to obtain pay for work not

case in several sub-divisions in Geor.
