SOUTHERN BANNER: JUNE 18, ISIS.
“ BILL ARP.”
Wliat He thinks of Binding
The Sheaves.
AN INDEPENDENT LICK—HOW THEY
GET DROPPED —GEN. BLACK’S AD*.
VICE—STANDING FOREVER—
SNAKES’ EGGS.
Written for tlie Constitution.
Mr. Editor:—The harvest
over. Croat expertnlioos have not
heen realized. Farmin’ is a good deal
like lishin’. Every time ton start
oat yon rail just see yourself eat ekin’
em ; Inn, alter tryin’ every iiolo in
the creek yon go home sorrowfully,
with a fisherman’s hick. But we are
not complainin’ by no means, for we’
vc got wheat emtf for biskit every
day and light-bread on Sunday, and
a few bushels to spare for them
angels that’s to cum alo»<j unawates
sum of these days. We finished enttin’
the oat crop this inornin’, and what
with them and the clover already
housed, the cattle are safe for an-
other year. I imagine they look
sassy and thankful; but as for inc,
Mr. Editure, lam a used up indi
vidual. Durin’ harvest I have had to
be a binder, and if you don’t know
what that is, ask Harris. The ends
of these fingers which are now in
scribin’ this cpistel are in a bad fix.
Skaritide and stuck up with bull
nettles and briars, they arc as sore
as a school boy’s bile. There was
sum variation to my business, such
as catch in, young rabbits, and fin-
din’ partridge uests, and pickin’
dewberries; but the romance wore
oft'the first day, and by the end of
the next my wife says I was as bum
ble a man as an y woman could dew re.
Its a mity puny thing to write about
and make up on.Is and ponies. The
golden grain, the manly reapers, the
strut tin’ sheaves, the song of the
harvesters, and party Miss Until
coqucttin' around the fields of old
niau Bo:iz, and “how jokin’ did they
drive their team afield,” is all so
sweet an*’ nice to a man up a tree
with an limbic!, luit. it the n poms
had to tie what halfa day in a June
sun, their sentimentality would
henceforth seek another snbjck. 1
tii< d swingin’ the cradle a w’ni <, bu;
somehow or sonieho
exactly get the lick
kind of a cradle I’ve been used Jo,
and I’m too old a dog to learn new
tricks now. The swing of the rea
per’s cradle is a very peculiar motion
—very regular in its irregularity,
and goes !<>r the weeds and bushes
and briars and the wheat—all the
same. Somehow or other it reminds
me of an independent candidate a
side wipin’ around to get otlis in a
1 wist Hide way. Well, I like iude-
pendt.ee, ami that’s why I like iar-
inin’—no’iodv to look to for a livin’
but Providenei*. I like to see a
man independent ir opinion and in
action, too, and if lie succeeds, it
shows that there is gum in him—but
it won’t do to run that skednle too
long or too fur, in polities or religion.
Bonapait and Beecher tride it, and
if they couldn’t keep it up, nobody
can’t, Everybody has got to fall
into line some time. For a while all
sorts of people will pax an indepen
dent on the back and say “ go it my
larkey, bully for you,” but before
long they’ll begin to think over whjt
a good, fat thing he’s got, a.td then
human nature, which yon know is as
mean as the devil, will crop out, and
the next time they’ll drop him so
easy lie won’t know it. On the whole
way is the old way. It may be, J
however, that Providence does ran*
up a man as an instrument to reform
society, but the instrument is very
likely to think he is doin it all on his
own hook, and he'll keep on reformiu
till the milletiiuin if the people will
let him. I think it would be well
enough for him to report progress
sometime, and inabv the good Lord
would let his servant depart in peace,
j But you let a feller git a taste of
| Washington and it does look onpos-
sible to even get him away from
I there. “ J will stand for realcction.’•
Of course he will, but it does seem
tome that if I- had held a rotaten
office right straight along for forty
years I would hunt the shade of Lib-,
erty Ilall and quit. Why, sur, there’s
forty men in that district been pa
tiently waitin’ twenty years for bis
chance, and lie’s now proposin’ to
outlive’em all and himself too Spose
he does want to die in harness,
what’s that to Bc’ry Houck ? There’s
sum other gentlemen worthy and
well qualified who would take the
gear kindly, and work in’etn, too.
But if I had a horse that wore out
his bret chin a boldin’ back up bill,
and Undent pulled nary pound in
seventeen years, he wouldcut die in
my harness, shoie. lie mout hunt
another w.tgin. I’ve no idee of to-
dying a man who toadys everbody
and evorthing I don’t like, from
Gen. Grant down to a patent medi
cine and there’s a heap of folks my
way of tbinkin’. Every time I think
about it I hear myself exclaimin,
“ Time’s out—Next.” Yours,
Bill Arp.
P. S.—I want to know how to git
shot of moles. The castor been grows
all around here and don’t seem to do
any good. Cant you put somethin’
