TRUE LOVE.
A maid reclined beside a stream,
At full of summer day,
And half awake, and half a-dVeam,
She watched tho ripples play ;
She marked the water fall and heave,
Tiie deepening shadow’s throng,
And heard, as darkened down the eve,
The river’s bubbling song ;
And thus it sung, with tinkling tongue,
That rippling, shadowy river—
‘ Youth’s bright day will fade away,
For ever and for ever!”
The twilight past, the moon at last
Rose broadly o’er the night,
Each ripple gleams beneath her beams,
As wrought in silver bright,
The heaving waters glide along,
But mingling with their voice,
The nightingale now pours his song,
And makes the shades rejoice;
And thus ho sung with tuneful tongue,
That bird Beside the river—
“ When youth is gone, true love shines on,
For ever and for ever.”
TIIE COTTAGE BY TIIE SEA.
Grant Beautifying liis Property
in Long Brandt at the Public
Expense.
The Washington Rally Critic , several
days ago, contained the following item
of news :
“A few days since there was shipped
from Washington to Long Branch, the
summer house of President Grant, three
wagon loads of choice flowers in pots,
two rustic settees, and forty hanging
baskets, which the keen eye of the prac
tical observer will miss for some time
from the Botanical Garden. Long
Brauch, in the meantime, will present
to the Washiugtouian the home attrac
tion of having the President’s garden
enchaining his cottage around with the
array of floral gems and rustic property
herein before described.”
This is all very nice and doubtless
very home-like and attractive for the
President and the few officeholding
Washingtonians who may accompany
him or from time to time visit the exe
cutive mansion by the sea. But what
will the people who arc taxed to provide
these luxuries say? The Botanical
Garden is no more the private property
of the President than of the humblest
citizen in the country. He has no more
right to ship rare plants, choice flowers,
and beautiful hanging baskets from this
conservatory fhau ho has to take the
Goddess of Liberty from the dome of
the Capitol and set it up on his private
grounds at Long Branch to frighten
away trespassers. Not only wa3 tho
Botanical Garden despoiled, but a large
portion of the furniture which the Gov
ernment tho White House
was shipped to Long Branch. Eight
wagon loads of it, according to the
Herald ; arrived last Friday. They
contained enough apparently to fill a
couple of such Swiss cottages as tho
President resides in, and comprised
all varieties of household furniture,
from tete-a-tetes and sociables to flow
erpots and soap boxes.
Tho St. Louis Republican says of the
Republican nomination in the South:
“A movement in Louisiana between tho
whites and blacks for a better under
standing challenges the admiration of a
St. Louis Republican paper, and it
gays : ‘On this basis a really South
ern Republican party that will redeem
tho South can bo established.’ But
what about that Republican party in
the South which the Republican Con
gress, tho ltepublica administration,
and the whole Republican press have
been supporting, in violation of law and
justice, for ail theso years ? Is it not
‘really Republican’ after all?’ When
a Republican paper calls for anew par
ty to ‘redeem the South,’ does it not
mean to admit that all that the Repub
lican party has done for ton years, with
its Bullocks, Warmoths, Kelloggs, Ca
seys, Durells, Claytons—with its frauds,
robberies, civil wars, Ku-klux bills and
armies—does it mean to admit that its
party has failed to ‘redeem the South

Singular Fatality. —On Tuesday
last Mr. J. W. ITixor, former chief of
police of Stanton, was crushed to death
by the cars at Gordonsvillc. The sud
den deaths in his family havo been as
remarkable as they havo been distress
ing. His father was thrown from a
stage and carried home dead. His bro
ther was taken suddenly ill in tho
street here and died a few moments af
ter being carried home, and now tho
last male member of the family has met
with an accident which resulted in his
death in fifteen minutes.— Stanton Vin
dicator.
Partisan Insincerity.—What thor
oughfacod Radical partisans are capable
of is illustrated by the proceedings of the
recent Ohio Stale Republican Conven
tion. That grave body in one of its
resolutions. says:
We condemn without reserve the vot
ing for or receiving of increased pay
for services already rendered, and de
mand that the provisious of the late act
of Congress by which the salaries were
increased should bo promptly and un
conditionally repealed.
And iu another resolution it also de
clares as follows;
Second—Wc reaffirm our confidence
in President Grant, and in the wisdom,
integrity and success of the administra
tion of his high office.
Now the approval of President Grant
made the increased pay bill a law, aud
he is.receiving §25,00 a year iu conse
quence of his assent to it. Thus we
have the Ohio Convention condeiquing
Congress and approving Grant, while
both are guilty of the same act.
Important to Bankrupts. —Judge
Erskino, Tuesday, issued the following
order in reference to bankrupt matters
in tho District Court:
In regard to filing petitions to restrain
sales under executions, &c., a copy of
the bill or petition, unTHs otherwise or
dered by the Court or Judge, should
accompany the writ of injunction. All
petitions or bills must be filed in the
Clerk’s office before being presented to
the Judge or Court, and they should
state fully the grounds upon which the
prayer for the writ of injunction is
based, so that tho Judge may be fully
aud particularly notified in the pro
mises. All facts essential to a full uu
derstauding, of the subject matter must
bo set forth, otherwise action may be
delayed and petitions returned for cor
rection. Cortificatcofadjudication ought
to accompany bills asking for injunc
tions. Officers of Court will look care;
fully to the bankrupt law and general
orders of the Supreme Court of the Us.
States and the rules of this Court in
taxing their costs.
A Goat with a Broken Heart. —A
gentleman of this county of undoubted
veracity tells a strango story about a
goat dying of a broken heart. The cir
cumstances are those: The gentleman’s
boys, perhaps, had a pair of kids that
were raised togother and never knew
what it was to be separated. From
some unknown cause, after they were
grown, they became estranged from
each other, one of then became greatly
attached to an old family horse which
was said to be about thirty years old.
They grazed togother during the day
and slept side by side in tho stall at
night. Whon tho horse was used, which
was not often, owing to his vonerable
age,- tho goat would run about in appa
rent great grief bleating like the yow
after its young. The old horse’s strength
fiually gave way, having weathored
tho storm in this world so long, and ho
died. Tho poor little goat never re
covered from tho painful separation.—
With tho most sad and pitiful look from
its eyes it would roam all the day long
over the fields and pastures in quest of
its lost companion. But alas ! the old
horse was gone and in less than two
weeks the devoted littlo friend followed.
It died of a broken heart.— Valdosta

FICidKGS A.\D FACTS.
It is not our intcution to take any
part in the discussion of the fence law,
but we feel it our duty to give all the
facts we can gather, either for or against
the law, so our fanning friends may be
the better prepared to arrive at a cor
rect opinion. The report of the Agri
-••ultural Department for 1871 shows
the total cost of fencing in the State of
Georgia to be $45,191,016. In arriv
ing at this cost of‘fencing per acre.—
From a eompciidiumof ninth census
1870, of the United States, it appears
that the total value of all live stock in
Georgia is $30,156,817. Tbqpe figures
show that the cost of fencing amounts
to $15,035599 more than the stoek in the
State is worth. The totsl value of the
farms in the State is $94,559,468 To
protect the crops raised on the farms
from depredations by stock, under the
present fence laws, there is invested in
fences nearly ns much capital as the
farms arc worth. The total value of
farming implements and machinery in
the State is $4,G14,701; take that
amount from the cost of the fences and
we find the fences have cost $40,770,-
250 more than all the cotton presses,
gins, gearing, plows, hoes, wagons and
other implements used on farms.
Don Piatt’s Candidate for thk

Tan Yard Aristocracy at Long
Brancii. —The arrival of President
Grant aud his family at Long Branch
on Friday was the occasion of consid
erable flutter among tho inhabitants
permanent and transient. Tho Presi
dent’s own carriage was on hand, with
two prancing bays and a proud colored
driver, awaiting their arrival. The
President disembarked with his family
and iriei.ds amid the drizzling rain, took
refuge at once under tho shelter of the.
depot, entered the carriage in waiting,
buttoned tho curtains all around and
sped away at a rattling pace for home.
In tho carriage with the President
were Mrs. Grant, their daughter Nellie,
Mr. Dent, Sr., and Ulysses Grant, Jr.
The President wore his customary suit
of solemn black, with stove-pipe hat (
and looked stern as usual, having a
rather florid color in his face. Mrs.
Grant also wore black aud looked un
usually handsome and pleasant. Miss
Nellie looked as a reigning* belle of the
day should, and wore a traveling linen
duster over her dress. The seaside
cottage was all in condition, and the
President’s party rested there, content
to put up with a few inconveniences in
cident to moving for the night. The
President’s baggage had been arriving
all day. Eight furniture wagons had
been driven down Ocean avenue to the
President’s cottage containing the Fed

buggy had been towed in the train of
furniture wagons, comprising a seaside
phaeton for Miss Nellie, a two seat bug

lie Would Have Hi* Garden.
Wo suppose thera is a time that
comes to every man when he feels he
should like to have a garden. If he
takes such a notion he will tell hia wife
of it. This is the first mistake he makes,
and the ground thus lost is never fully
recovered. She draws her chair up to
his, aud lays one hand on his kneo, and
purses up her lips iuto a whistle of ex
pectation— the vftren—and tells about
her mother’s garden, and how nice it is
to have vegetables fresh from the vines
every morning, and she will go right
ont and plan the whole thing herself.
And so she docs. He takes his spade,
and works himself into a perspiration,
and she tramps around under a fright
ful sun-bonnet, and gets under his feet
and shrieks at the worms, and loses her
shoe, and makes him first vexed, and
then mad, and then ferocious. After
the garden is spaded, he gets the seed,
and finds tlat she has been thonght
ful enough to open the papers and
empty thirteen varieties of different
vegetables into one dish. This leads
him to step out doors where he can
commune with nature alone for a mo
ment. Then he takes up the seed and a
hoe, and a line, aud two pegs, and starts
for the garden. And then she puts on
that awful bonnet, and brings np the
rear with a longhandled rake, and a
pocket full of beans and petunia seed
and dahlia bulbs. While he is plant
ing the corn she stands on the cucum
ber hills, and rakes over tho seed pan.
Then she puts the rake handle over her
shoulder, and the rake teeth into his
hair, and walks over the other beds.—
He don’t find tho squash seed until she
moves, aud then he digs them out of
the earth with his thumb. She plants
the best seed herself, putting just about
two feet of earth and sod upon them.
Than she takes advantage of his absorp
tion in other matters, and puts down
the petunia seed in one spot, and after
wards dig them up, and puts them down
iu another place. The beans she con
ceals in the earth wherever she can
find a place, and puts over the setni-paa
again, and opologizes, and steps on two
of the best tomatoe plants, and says
“O, my!” which in no way resembles
what tfo says. About this time she
discovers a better place for the petunia
seed, but having forgotten where she
Inst put them, she proceeds to find them,
and within an incredible brief spaoe of
time, succeeds in unearthing pretty
much everything that has been pat
down. After confusing things so, there
is no earthly possibility of ever unravel
ing them again, she says the sun is kill
ing her, aDd goes over to the feneo
where she stands for hours, telling the
womau next door about an aunt of hers
wl o was confined to her bed for eleven
years, and bad eight doctors from the
city, but nothing would give her any
relief uutil an old lady—but you have
heard it before. The next day a man
comes to his office to get the pay fora
patent sced-sowef which his wife had
ordered, and he no more than gets away,
before *a patentee of a new lawn-mower
comes iu with an order for ten dollars,
and he in turn is followed by the corn
sholler man, and the miserable garden
er starts for home to head off the rob
bers, and finds his wife at the gate with
his own hat on, and just about to olose
a bargain with a smooth-faced individu
al for a two hundred dollar mowing
machine, and a pearlhandled, ivoiy
mounted, hay-outter. He first knocks
the agricultural implement agent on
the head, and then drags the miserable
woman into the bouse, and, looking the
door, gives himself up to, his emotions.
