FACE TO FACE.
If my face ooukl only promise that its
color would remain
If my heart were only certain it would
hide the moment's pain
I would meet you and would greet you
in the old familiar tone
And naught should ever show you Wrong
that you have done
If my trembling hand were steady if my
smiles had not all lied
If my eves spoke not so plainly of the
tears li y often shed
I would meet you and would greet you
at the old sweet tn saig place
And perchance you'd deem me happy if
you met me face to face.
If the melody ot snringtiilo awoke no
wild retain
If the autumn’s golden burthen awoke
no living pain
I would meet thee and would greet thee
as years ago we met
before orr hearts were shipwrecked Oil
the ocean of regret.
If my momnn's soul were stronger if my
heart were not so true
I would long have ceased remembering
the love 1 a tor you
but I dare not meet u r greet thee in the
old familiar way
Until wo meet in heaven wlion tears have
passed away.

C AN’T GET TO MUCH.
There was a bridal couple coming
in on tlie Bay City train the other
day, and the passengers in that par¬
ticular ear were on the grin most
of the time over their antics. The
bride hud got the man she loved,
and she didn’t care a copper who
saw Iter pillow her head on his
shoulder. The bridegroom had got
a farm with his wife and if he wan-
ted to feed on gum drops or squeeze
iter baud whose business was it!
A little old man, dried up and bare¬
headed, sat directly in front of the
couple, and lie looked arounu so of¬
ten that the young husband finally
explained:
“We’re just married.”
“I knowed it all ttie time.” chuck¬
led bald head.
“And we can’t help it, you know.’
“No you can’t—I’ll be darned if
you kin!”
“I presume it all seems very silly
t> an old man like you,” continued
the huaband.
,<K ' ‘ l cackled the old
< ou as u lobbied around. “Wall

MAD DOGS AT LARGE.
About three weeks ago,Mr I3o» '
F. Findley, a prominent and well to
do farmer, living uety Warsaw in
Milton county, and not far from the
Forsyth line, was severely bitten ! j
by a rabid dog. !
The dog was a strange one, and
was immediately killed. Whi’ehis
wounds were Gainful, it is to be hop-
I e d that nothing serious will iollow
from tliem.
On last Tuesday Mr. Berry Gil-
bert, who lives in the lower part of
tills county, was attacked and bitten
badly by Ills own dog, which went
suddenly mad. The brute made a
leap at Mr. Gilbert’s throat, but fas- <*.,
toned ltis teeth in his breast. In 1
-
deavormg to unloose its hold, the
forefinger of one hand whs caught
in the dog’s mouth and bitten entire

e iced no bad results from iii-
wounds.

OCR WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent
Washington, June 8th.—Cleveland
and Thurman are euphonious, and
besides, there is an air of we're-hound
to win! about these good old demo¬
cratic names that cannot fall to have
its effect on the campaign, it is a
union of the old and new democra¬
cy. Judge thurman was one of the
leaders of tlie democratic party,
while Hie man of destiny-Grover
Cieveiand-was yet a school boy. The
ticket combines the strength of vig¬
orous manhood and the wisdom and
experience of more than three score
and ten years. The red bandana
which lor so many years was found
in tlie front ranks of the democratic
Senators, will now take its place as
one of the emblem of good govern¬
ment arid revenue reform in the
battle this year, which is to decide
tlie fate of both. Everybody here
except uhe disconsolate republicans
is enthusiastic over the great work
of the St. Louis convention. It was
a piece of work that the democratic
party of the entire country is proud
of in every movement of that grand
body <ff men confidence and victory
were plainly visible. Now let the
good work go right on, let the en-
thusiusm originated by the national
convention continue to extend and
spread out until the whole country
is enveloped in a blaze of enthu¬
siasm that will ersult in a clean
sweep in the legislative as well as
well as tlie excutive branch of the
government. The ticket and plat¬
form are all that can be asked for.
now’ let the voters do their part, and
noxt November we shall ail sing
peatts of victory.
The red bandana has become the
democratic badge of the campaign.
They can be seen everwltere.
Red is just now the prevailing col¬
or around the capitol. The demo¬
cratic members all carry red band¬
anas, and till the members of the
House wear red roses in their but
tonlioles. The red roses are from
tlie country residence of Represen-
ta tive Lee, of Virginia, who lives
near this city. lie brings a big bas¬
ket of them in with him every day,
and sends them around to the other
members on the floor of the House
by tv page.
Mr. Clevaland was furnished with
the ful! associated press reports of
the St. Louis convention. They
were sent direct to the White House
over the Western Union wire
Mr. Blanchard, of Louisiana, has
introduced a bill in the House which
provides that all fines and penalties
imposed and collected for violations
of the provisions of the Inter State
commerce law, shall be given to the
party making the cemplaint.
ATr. Oates, of Alabama, thinks the
time line cotne to place some restric¬
tion upon immigration. He has in¬
troduced in the House a bill impos¬
ing a tax of $25 on each immigrant.
Attorney General Garland has
had quite a severeattack ofrheuma¬
tism. He is now much better.
The tariff bill has been under con¬
sideration in the House for the
greater part of ibis week, but the
progress made has not been great.
: The republicans are determined to
delay this bill in every manner pos-
sible in the hope of thereby eventu¬
n ll y defeating it. Their latest
scheme is to force the House to a
consideration of the arrearge of pen¬
sion bills which it passed would very
quickly wipe out the Treasury sur¬ I
plus. If the republicans succeed in |
getting this pension bill before the
House, it is understood thst an I
amendment will he offered thereto
by the democrats, providing for a
tax on all incomes above $5,000, to
t,lu money which the bill ap-
P r °priates.
The uncertainty among republi-
cans as to who their presidential
ca,,( lidate is to be, is just as great
now as it was the day that Rlane
droppod out for good Sherman’s
friends now claim that his nominn- j
t ‘ on is almost assured. Democrats
