The gold that will never pass away.

Gold that the patient and the brave

Since, heart to heart like rhyme to rhyme,

That tinkled many a secret sweet
Concerning how two souls should meet,
And whisper of Time’s flying feet
With a most piquant silver tongue.

Dear eyes, still black and bright and fair
As aiiy eyes to mortal given !

You miss full many a bonny face
That would have smiled a ttlial grace
Around your Golden Wedding wine.
But God is good and God is great,

Your dead stand happy In yon Gate
And call you blessed while they shine.
So, drop the tear and dry the eyes,
Yoar rainbow glitters in the skies.

With cups as full as our souls, we say :

Behold how true, true love appears,

A MURDERED LOVER.
terrible results of a probable joke
—A YOUNG man kills himself be
cause HE IS DISCARDED BY HIS
SWEETHEART AN UNFOR
TUNATE LETTER.
From the Marietta (Pa) Register.]
We learu from parties who were present
the particulars of a suicide, under most
distressing circumstances, which occurred
in Salem township, this county, on Thurs
day night of last week. It seems a young
man named Spencer, a resident of Noble
county, had been paying his addresses to
a young lady of Salem township, named
Whetstone. Matters had so far progressed
that they were engaged. The relatives of
the young lady, it is stated, were opposed
to the match, and interposed to the
consummation of the marriage. A short
time since, two young men, either mali
ciously, or through sport, wrote a disrep
utable letter concerning the young lady,
•igning Spencer’s name to it, and counter
feiting his hand-writing as nearly as poss
ible. This letter they purposely dropped
where Miss Whetstone would be sure to
find it. She did find it, as was natural,
was very indignant at its contents.
On the evening of the suicide, he made
his usual visit, but was coldly received,
was informed of the letter and dismissed
as an unworthy suitor. He protested bis
innocence, and declared he knew nothing
of the letter; but she bade him go, telling
him she never wished to see lnm again,
He remarked, “If that is the case I will
kill myself, ” and left the house. A mo
ment after she heard the report of a pistol
but being alone, with only her mother and
•ister, she was afraid to go out, and await
ed the return of Mr. Whetstone, who was
absent. On his return, search was made,
and young Spencer was found a few yards
from the house, with a bullet hole through
bis heart, and dead enough.

From Penury to Wealth!
PATIENCE AND INDUSTRY REWARDED.
THE STORY OF $1)5,000.
Mrs. McDaniel, a widow lady of this
city, who lost her husband sometime
since, and who was reduced almost to
want by continued reverses of fortune,bas
suddenly become the possessor of a snug
little sum of $95,000 00.
HOW IT CAME ABOUT.
It seems that the lady’s husband, during
the war invested the means that he accu
mulated, in cotton, of which be purchased
a large amount. The United Slates Gov
ernment unfortunately for itself, seized the
cotton as a contraband, and appropriated
it. In the meantime her husband died,
leaving the claim, under prosecution. The
widow becoming worn out with anxiety
had given up the idea of ever recovering
anything and with a fortitude and determ
ination scareiy equalled, was struggling
earnestly with the world for a living,
working in the Domestic Sewing Machine
office ia this city.
A LUCKY TELEGRAM.
A few days ago a telegram arrived an
nouncing that her claim had been adjusted
and that she was now worth $95,000 ? She
departed immediately for Washington
where she received her money and re
turned to this city.
Atlanta ia certainly a lucky place, as we
are constantly called to chronicle similar
strokes of fortune. We are glad to know
that it falls to the lot of the worthy and
meritorious, as others are then likely to
reap some of its benefits.— Atlanta Her

WHAT IS LIFE?
A NAUGHTY LITTLE GIRL KNOWS HOW
’TIS nEHSELF AND HAS HER SAY —
REGARDLESS OF CONSEQUENCES.
BIIE RECITES HER EXPERIENCE WHICH
THE READER WILL READILY PER
CEIVE IS ANYTHING BUT LOVELY.
SHE TELLS TALES OUT OF SCHOOL, BUT
SHE’S ONLY A GIRL, YOU KNOW.
I’m only a little girl, but I think I have
us much right to say what I waut to about
things as a boy. I hate boys, theyr’o so
mean ; they always grab all the strawber
ries at the dinner table, too, and never
tell its when they aro going to have fun.
Only I like Gus Rogers. The other day
Gus told me he was going to let off Rome
fireworks, and lie let Bessie Nettle and me
go and look at them. All of us live in a
hotel, and his mother’s room lias a win
dow with a balcony. His mother was
gone out to buy some creme de lie to put
on her face, and he’d went aud got eleven
boxes of lucifer matches and ever so many
pieces of castile soap. lie steuled them
from the housekeeper. Just when she
went to put them in iier closet Gus went
and told tier Mrs. Nettle wanted her a
minule, and while she was gone he grab
bed the soap and matches, and when she
came back be watched her, and she got
real mad, and she scolded Delia (that is
the chambermaid,) aud said she knowed
who did it. and I was real glad, because
when I was turning somersets on my
mother’s bed the other day Delia, slapped
me and said she wasn’t going t® make the
bed two times to please me ; then Bessie
and me slicked the matches in the
soap like tenpins, and Gus fired them
off, and they blazed like anything, and,
they made an awful smell, and Gus went
and turned the gas ou, so’s his mother
would think it was that.
We get our dinner witli the nurse, ’cause
the man that keeps the hotel charges full
price for the children if they sit at the ta
ble in the big dinning room. Once my
mother let me go down with her, and I
talked a heap at the table, and a gentle
man that sat next to us said little
girls should be seen and not heard. The
mean old thing died last week, and I was
real glad, and I told Delia so, and she said
if I went and said thiugs like that 1
couldn’t go to heaven. Much she knows
about it; and I wouldn’t want to go if
dirty thiugs like she went there. Yester
day Mary, our nurse, told Bessie Nettle’s
nurse that she heard Larry Finnegan was
going to marry her. Larry is one of the
waiters, and he saved caudles for me from
the big dinning room ; and Bessie Nettle's
nurse said, “Oh, Lord! what a lie?” and
Bessie Nettle went into her mother’s room,
aud her little brother said she nipped him,
and Bessie said, “O, Lord: what a lie!”
aud you should have heard how her moth
er did talk to her, and went and shut her
up in the dark room where she kept her
trunks, and didn't let her have nothing hut
bread and water ; aud Gus lingers went
and yelled through the keyhole and said,
“Bessie, the devil is coming to fetch you,”
and Bessie screamed and almost had a fit,
and her mother told Mrs. Rogers, aud got
Gus licked, and Gus says he's a mind to
set the. house on fire some day and burn
her out.
One day I went into the parlor and
creeped under the sofa, aud there wasn't
nobody there. They don’t let dogs nor
children go into the parlor, and 1 think
it’s real meau ; and I had to creep under
the sofa, so nobody could see me; aud
Mr. Boyce came in, and Miss Jackson she
said one day that children was worse nui
sances than dogs. And Mr. Boyce and
Miss Jackson came in aud sitted down
on the sofa ; and he said, “O Louisia, I
do love you so much,” and then he kissed
her, for I heard it smack. And then she
said, “O, Thomas, I do wish 1 could be
lieve you ; don’t you never kiss anybody
else?” And be said, “No, dearest” and I
yelled out, “O, what a big story!” fori
saw him kiss Bessie Nettle’s nurse in the
hall one night, when the gas was turned
down. Didn’t he jump, you bet! Aud he
pulled me out and tored my frock, aud he
said, “O, you wicked child, where do you
expect to go to for telling such stories?”
aud I told him. “You shut up ; I ain’t
going anywhere with you.” I wish that
man would die, like the other one, so I
do; and I don’t care whether he goes to
heaven or not.
Gus Rogers' mother had a lunch party
in her parlor, and they had champagne,
and they never gave him any ; and when
his mother wasn’t looking he found a bot
tle full on the sideboard, and bs stealed it
and took it into our nursery ; aud Mary
wasn’t there, and Gus and me drinked it
out of the glass Mary brushes her teeth ia;
and it was real nice ; and we looked into
Mary’s wardrobe and found her frock she
goes to chucb in ; and Gus put it on,
and Mary’s bonnet too ; and we went into
the hall and we tumbled down and tored
Mary's frock, and made my nose bleed;
and Gus said : “ O, there’s an earthquake!”
cause wc couldn't stand up; and you
should see how the house did go up and
down—awful; and Gus made me laid down
on the carpet, and the housekeeper picked
me up and tooked me to my mother’s room
and mother said, “Ob, my! whatever
have you been doing ?” and I said, “ O,
Lord! I drinked champagne out of Gns
Rogers’ mother's bottle, in the glass that
Mary brushes her teeth in.” And the
houskeeper said, “O, my goodness gra
cious ? that child’s as tight as bricks,’’ and
I said, “ You bet; bully for you ! ” Aud
then I was awful sick, and I’ve forgot
what else.
Woman’s Wit. —A farmer on the eve
of “pegging out,” said to his wife ;
“My dear, I’m going to die ; therefore
wish to make my will. Ail my fortune
in this world is a horse aud dog. You
will sell the horse and give the proceeds
to my relations. As to the dog you can
keep him for yourself.” And the old man
died.
MACON, GA., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1873.
Her mourning over, the window wish
ing to obey the instructions of her dead
husband, took the horse and dogs to mar
ket and offered them for sale. She was
offered two hundred dollars for tho horse,
but no one would buy the dog.
“I will not sell him without the other,"
said the woman," give me two hundred
dollars for the dog and I will let you have
the horse for five dollars.” The pur
chaser accepted, though ho thought It a
queer bargain. The next day, obeying
her husband’s instructions she sent the
five dollars, price of the horse, to her
husband's relations, and kept the two
hundred, price of the dog, for herself.

THE I'KtHU ll WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising la
a necessity to success in business; It is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the best medium tor reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THK MONROE ADVERTISER
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it is, therefore, the bent medium of
communication with the planting interests.
We will be happy at any time to furnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties who read
their cards in The Advertiser. In fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of all
other journals in which they Bre represented.
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and ia therefore deservedly
successful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS.
No advertisements are admitted whish are
not believed to be above question and of real
value, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The Advertiser will be
safe in ordering them from any distance. TANARUS
our readers, the fact of its appearance hers has
ail the weight of endorsement and authority.
Address, JAB. P. HARRISON,
Forsyth. Georgia.
