THE SOI.DIEK ON QUAHD.
i.
The guard stood on the sandy beach—
When all but him had fled—
Wishing he was home again—
Asleei) in the trundle bed.
II.
He thought of his little brothers—
How happy they must be,
While he trudged up and down —
Tlie beach beside the sea.
III.
He thought about his darling—
A “lovely girl was she,”
E’en though she didn’t visit—
Her warrior by the sea.
IV
He halted on his rounds once,
And knelt upon one knee,
Prayed deliverance from duty—
As a soldier by tlie sea.
V.
The darlings of all his comrades—
Were at Murray Hall—in reach
while he marked time alone—
On tlie sands of Pablo Beach.

Tlie Americus Times say* Capt. John
A. Cobb of Sumter county has discover
ed by experiments that there is more
profit in cattle kept up and fed than
when allowed to run at large. Last year
Capt. Cobb says, he had about one hun
dred and fifty head of cattle on one of
his places, all of which were allowed to
run out at large. Of this number twen
ty-five mi’eh cows were herded boih
morning and evening to be milked. Tins
year, instead of allowing them to run
out, he selected three of the number for
makers and keeps them closply confi ted
to. '

the milk is much richer and the yield of
butter correspondingly larger, while the
trouble is tenfold less than what it was
last year.
rhe Sparta Ishmealitethinks tha Xtr^
lanla Journal’s advicy to boycot Western
hog lard is practical and good advice.
The bill it thinks is intended solely tore
stri t the sale of the Southern product,
in order to increase the sale of its rival
product, and the Southern people should
not lend their aid to such jairiisan dis
crimination against an important Soutli
era industry. Cotteh seed oil is cleaner
and cheaper and more wholesome than
hog’s lard and can be use*! for every par
iK,se in the kitchen for which the latter
in used besides being fully equal to olive
oil for table purpoees. When the tax is
imposed on the oil to make a large mar
ket far lard, every Southern housekeep
er. and especially every farmer, should
refuse to buy Urd at any price, and it
would be good policy for them to use the
oil only, whether it shall be taxed or
not

Marion Free Lance. (N. C.)—The good
people of the thriving town of Rocky
Mounts deserves the sympathy of the
white people of the State. A negro by
the name of Armstrong was first ap -
pointed postmaster under the “coon" ad
ministration. Some weeks ago it was
discovered that he had squandered the
money of the office to the extent of
nearly $700. He is now in jail at Tar
boro. Next a negro woman by the name
of Sylvia Drake was appointed to fill the
vacancy. She was unable to give bond.
Lee Person, a professeional negro politi
cian, who is obnoxious to the people, be
sides being a “coon,” was appointed by
the present administration. He gave
the required bond and is now the post
master of that town. When the Free
Lance hears radical politicians assert that
the Republican party does not wish to
humiliate the people of the South, ami
throws insults in their faces, we
can but recall such instances as the.
Rocky Mount Postofiice.
Pine Forest.—There are auspicious
grounds for believing that tlie Atlanta
and Savannah air line railroad will not
come through Swainsborough. The
surveying corps are managing to miss
most of the small towns in the sections
through which they are surveying. The
people of Swainsboro should do what
they can to get the company to bring the
road through their town and if they find
that the company is trying to bring the
road within a mile or two or just near
enough to build up a town to pull down
theirs, then they should denounce it a
speculative, curse to the country and do
all they can against it and by no means
suffer the road to be built through their
lands. They are not granted charters to
build towtiB, but railroads. The people
should watch for their own interest and
not by any means allow such unjust
intrusions.
The degree of prosperity which Geor
gia is enjoying is largely due to the im
provement in farming. For several
years our farmers have diversified then
products and have endeavored to curtail
the expense of production. The result
has been that our farmers have made
more money, having freed themselves
from the bondage of mortgages and have
attained independence, All efforts
which the farmers of Georgia are mak
ing to better their condition should re
cieve the encouragement and hearty co
operation of all our people, as upon the
farmer’s prosperity depends the pre sper
ity of all classes.—Dispatch and Neva
