I>car Joe, upon ibis blotted note I drop a silent tear. Lyn wood. R«ab Aunt Judy: Armed with an invitation ’rnm you, delivered by that general favorite and my very good friend Earnest Willie, to visit the Young Folks’ corner, I come back to my native Georgia knowing that I will be given a cozy scat while lor a lew moments I chat with the cousins about the beautiful Shenandoah Valley, of which they have so often heard, many f r °m the mouths of fathers who spent a few years here some twenty-five years ago, when other ’.bought* than of the beauty of the scenery occupied their minds. Georgia aud Virginia were the two best representatives of the old ante helium south- They boro the brunt ol the Im’oC giaHiitic conflict, Hiul when tne grent Samp son of the North b >wed himself and pulled these two props away, that beautiful structure the Southern Confederacy, so full of hopes arid promises, fell. But before It fell, how many a •'Georgia Volunteer" tell asleep beneath the cedars and tue pines” of the Alieghames! On accouut of the inane of our fathers who b aved 1 the cannon s mouth here Georgians have a peculiar interest in the shen-n ioah Valley. It - vale oi rempe surrounded bv mountains ' Foft airs and song and light and bloom” of early summer, was it not, dear friends, when I came to you last? The summer is long past, the K ory of autumn ended the chilling air and naked woods of winter greet ns now, while the remnant of the Christmas "good things" and the presents from Santa Clans’ wonterful pack make us to know that Christmas has come, gone, and another year ended. 4 ‘Another yeart oh how the years pass on! They come and ere we think or wish are gone! We plan, resolve, and promise in a day, Forget Jbegin anew, the year has passed away!” I have not forgotten you, though I have kept long away. I have read the Jetters each week, often desired to write, and yet did not. To those who have remembered and spoken kindly words, I remember and love you all. With Spicy lean truthfully declare, 4 no one appreciates these things more than I.” Aud new members, Ilemberliie, Juanita, Zir- 1 ine, Cricket, all you whose nice letters I have read but whose names I can’t recall, here is a pleasant greeting with a hope that you will come again. And to all in sterotyped phrase I cry, ‘‘Happy New Yeai!” Not a year that is all sunshine It will come to no one of you. Ajid it is well that it is so. ‘ He sends you the blinding darkness, And the furnace of seven fold heat; ’Tis the only way, believe me, To keep you close to his feet, For ’tis always so easy to wonuer When our lives are glad and sweet.’* May you be happy in the sunshine of his pres ence. Nemo, was the unsigned letter of a few weeks ago yours? Then to you firsl, because of what you said, I must speak. Come and tell me of last summer as iteauie to you in your woodland home au l I will teli you of mine and of walks through antu nn woods “Tht.reisa pleasure iu the pathless woods, eh, Nemo? Or wa* it you Melancholy Will? You also are a Tennesseean and have kept loug away. Will ilyssene, how the little Punch of wild fl *wers am blue grass from our own Middle Tennessee set me dreaming! Thank you very much, Will, aud come back soon. Kilencc is not Koldeti when your letters appear. Frmcis Leign, I am a great rniud to give you whose tops, as the poem hasit^ nse towardtne I * WMy! 1 doll ’ t like tQis 8dlUa S UIlder several realms of snow ” The valley is a beautiful blue uoulb * Grass region, rich as the valley of the Nile, aud vs Whittier says in Barbara Fritchie, ‘‘fair as a garden of the Lord.” Lexington is situated near the head of the valley, about teu miles from the mountains, fourteen from the Natural Bridge ami about eleven from Rockbridge baths. It is famous as the seat of Washingt >u and Lee University and the Virginia Military Institute, two of the lead- ing institutions of the -<outh. Washington and Lee University was founded, as Liberty Hall Academy, in 17/6. It whs char tered iu 1782, being the lirst chartered school in \ lrginia after the English colony became a commonwealth. In 17% George Washington made adouatiou of fifty thousand dollars to the academy, after which the name was changed to Washington College. Soon after the war Geu. Robt. E. Lee was e e3ted president, which ollice he held up to the time of his death. He devoted himself actively to the duties of kis office, aud l. is said hat could he have |ved he would have proven himself the great* pt college presideut the world ever saw. The old General took a personal iuterest in ivery boy who 3ame here, using every means to fencourage him to excel iu his studies, and to khrow Christian influences around him. He is ouried in a mausoleum, built as an ■apsis to the university chapel. Just behind the f rostrum there is an opening in the wall through • which the Balleutyne recumbent statue cm be I scca. This stitue is one of the finest statues in the I’ nited rf’ates ami is so realistic that you seem Starling, I in lend to write you a letter some sweet day. Bo you know I cherisa a bit of writing that l call yours? How did it come into my pu.-session do you wonder? Spicy, don’t we know you under an other name? I like your letters, friend. Lucille of course I can trade, but hew? Not speak out in meetin’ eh? Lenora, we warn a letter from you. Au i Italic must come again with her helpful words aud so assist us iu rnakiug our lives a more earnest endeavor. Hilda, you shall bo our sunbeam. See that you shine into the dark corners and brighten the sad faces among us. Doctor, how did you spend Xmas? Evangeline, we are the loser by your silence. What sorrow is thine, O Mother Earth, That wails in thy winds tonight? What anguish smothered iu tne bitter moans That creep into my room so bright? Thou bendest over a dying bed; It ho ds tne form of th / child ! The win :s I hear are stilled moans From thy heart pierced almost wild! Be still! Be still! O waiting winds! Cal ji well thyself, O Eartn! It is the God who takes the old Aud gives the new year birth! 1SU1! We have orened the new book. It will not lake long to fill it. Let us be careful to . . . . . . .. write each page well, so that when the whole is to be looking at the great sjldier himself, lying . ready to be sealed, it may be oflered up Iroin iu calm repose, rather than as cold and sense- ‘ ’ less marble He lies on a couch with his right •hand folded across his breast aud his left King on the hilt of his sword. The old colored janitor, “Old Tom ” was the old General's servant during the war an 1 as he tells you of the old times,wneu “Mars Bob” was alive he almost grows wild. Hesayi dat's des like Mars B »b. Dey’s got er picter of dat statue what d* y’s gone and put up down to Richmond up h -re in de library and de very fust time 1 gits in dar when nobody a n't a look in’ I’se gwiue to t -ar it down Dev’s got Mars Bob rared back dar on his h jss. Guess I'se seeu Mars Bob on horseback a million times, and he rid straight he did, he never rared back dat way,” Below the statue, in the bisement of the chapel, is the old General's office kept just as it was the day he left it, when he laid down his pen for the last time. There is his chair, just where he pushed it back from the table. There are the books, papers, vidting-cards, etc., lying where ’he hand of Lee laid them. The last writing he did was to make out a class list. One eoluinu is filled, ami at the top of the uext are the words, ••Junior II'*—but there the hand that held the sword in Mexico, aud at Gettysburg grew weary, the pen fell from its grasp aud the immortal Lee left ihj room to enter it no more. In the little vi lage cemetery. Stonewall Jack- son sleeps. <-»oiug one afternoon to see his grave, aud after looking all over the cemetery for it iu vain, 1 was just leaving, when my eyes fell ou a small gravestone about two feet high — such a r ne as can be seen iu every churchyard, with only "Gen. T J. Jackson” written upon it. How si nple! Napoleon sleeps beueata the dome of Nortre Dime in a magnificent sepulchre and streams of people visit his tomb daily. But here is the grave of the greatest soldier since the ‘‘Little Corporal,” iu a quiet village church yard, almost unmarked, and to which only au occasional visitor comes. How like the man! It is no doubt as ht would have it. He sleeps “under the shale of the trees,” whose branches, breathed apon by the mouutaiu breezes, sigh bis dirge. a , Now Aunt Judy, perhaps I have talked long enough, and had bet’er bid you aud the cousins farewell for awhile.

What uas become of all our old cousins? I look iu vain for Dido, Star ling, Monk, Left, Clarence, Eugene and Lillian Lee. I feel like a stranger myself among to many new faces, and hardly know who to speak to in this assembly. But. as Beth needs sym pathy, I will endeavor to sooth her rufiled feel ings, for my big brother stole a march ou us aud Is now fully installed in wedding bliss. Oh!

Like angel tears, the snowflakes fall— Fall aud waue, Aud kiss you ivied, marbled wall— Kiss iu vain— Their pallid lips caress thy tomb, Aud ghostly paint thy narrow home, Spirit Jane—‘ Such crystal gem* of white-winged snow, Aud seeking rest ou earth below, Spirit Jaue. Like shattered hopes the snowflakes fall Down like rain. Aud drape you veroaut cedars tall,, O’er again; Their eager ears will heed my cries, Aud mists will bear them to the skies, Spirit Jaue— Such mists, tho’ born of pinioned snow, Will bear my thoughts from earth below, Aud whisper them to thee, 1 kuow, Spirit Jane, Like spirit shapes, the snowflakes glide O'er the main. And ride proud oceau’s crested tide Home again; Like elfin shapes, they sink to rest— Are rocked to sleep ou ocean’s breast, Spirit Jane - And bosomed iu tne ocean’s flow, As garnered souls of spotless »now, They live like thee, forevermore, Spirit J&ne. Cold on my lips the snowflakes lie, Lie and wane, Wane to tears from an angel’s eye, Spirit Jane— O cloud winged tears of frozen white, Thus kiss my fever’d lips tonight O'er again— O bear taat kiss to realms of light; O bear It up ou wings of white, And wafe it to au augel bright, Spirit Jaue.
