Mr. aud Mr. A. T. Copeland gave
a nice little sociable party to a few j
select friends iu honor of Miss Tillv
Lawson, which was highly enjoyed
by all who had the pleasure of at
tending.
Mrs. W, A. Gibson, of Flat Shoals,
received a very nice present in the
shape of a barrel of apples from a
friend in Fayette county, which is as
fine as I ever saw.
There is many wild ducks on the
river, but little fishiog and bunting
is done around here, as ev.rybody
is busy. There are a great many
quails and doves, which Col. E. W,
Hammond night be able to kill a
few to make him a little bird pie.
We were all very sorry to bear of
the death of our loved friend Col. N.
M. ColleDS. We extend our heart
felt sympathy lo his grief stricken
mother aod relations, who have been
left to mourn his loss.
I learn that there was an old negro
woman perished to death a few days
ago, she bad grandboys and girls
who refused to take care of her.
When she would ask for something
to eat they would give her water in
place of food. If such be true, why
should the arm of tho law not be
used in such cases. It cannot be
anything but death from neglect,
and it is hard to lot one die from
starvation because they are not abl#
to wait on themselves. T. W.

POOR BILL.
by nmazi.F
In city, town, or shady dale,
In mountain wild, or pleasant vale,
In forest Weak, on rugged hill,
I have uot found a man like mine —
Poor Bill.
For other’s woes lie had ear,
For other's euaes, he had a oare,
For other’* ease he worked with miulit aud
wi,I >
But ne'er a thought had he for self.
Poor Bill-
For „ auything he had a turn,
Few things he could not learn,—
Could sing a tong—sing like the rippling rill,
Could mske a speech, and then eonldweep—
* Poor Bill*
Hi* talents were always in demand;
He could sell a gin, make deeds to land.
Praise picture*—write poetry with a quill,
Class cotton,—and sell manure on time-
poor Bill.
Cunningham found use for such a man,
To sell hi# ecrews, buggies, or lady’s fan,
Collect his rents,—write contracts or a
To keep his store till he c ame back—
Poor Bill.
When Cunningham came it might be late
soon,
But generally he came with the rising
For he went from Ison'# Branch to
Mill,
Thinking of rents, sh e k# and bed
but not
Poor Bill.
But Bill would stay aud watch, and keep
post
Till hope of Cunningham’s return was lost,
Then barring the door with a syrnp mill.
He would lay him down to sleep—
Poor Bill.
So, faithful through the scenes of life,
With its *orro»s, its cares and strifa,
He’ll pass his days for good or ill,
A friend to others, but not
Poor Bill.
And when life’s fitful dream is past,
And he Is laid to rest at last,
In his cold and silent grave, so still.
Hi* friends will drop u tear and say,
Alas, Poor Bill.
