JASPER GA. SATURDAY APRIL 18, 1885.
TWILIGHT.
The twilight gathers fair and fir.«*
Above the ditupiin stream;
The rosy colors shitt Mid *h iue,
And all the shadowy world doth seem
The picture of some happy dream.
Too soon from darkening tide and shove
The vision melts away;
To paint the heavenly space o’re
No amethystiue hues delay.
Nor tender rose nor sapphire stay.
Yet not a taint will ever fade
From the heaven where once it shone
Every sweet color there inlaid
Pcrpetua/ has grown
Since, iu the trembling light I made
• You, love, my own, own!
The Light of a Smile
“What are pmV* said a tear,
To a smile playing uear,
“ JFith a flickerin ' shimmer,
You transently glimmer
On the nif aningless featuvs of mirth;
Ku/ you nothing express
Of die anguish and stress
That make up man’s portion on earth.”
“You are rather sever,”
Said the smile to the tear,
“For as day, to shine bright’
Needs a background of night,
So grief must be bordered with gladness
And the light of a smile
More than once in a while
He/ps a tear to unbosom its sadnes.”
THE JOimiMK PEOI-LK.
The Mobile Register says, we haw
noted with nuiuh pleasure aud gratifv
catiofi the cordial «'Oii^rrat»l<iiioii eaten
ded the .South by many of our contem¬
poraries of both parties, <> Q the evidence
that has recently been given id the
wouderfu/ progress mj.de by oue section
in the past few years. Rut there i*
oue point connected with the progress
oa which sufficient stress has net, i,i
our opition, been laid, and that is—
what manner of people are thei**, who
thus from from defeat and disaster Lave
evolved prosperity that promises to be
greater than that of ante-beilma da\%?
Since the close of t’j% wir tht peo¬
ple of the&uth have been bnlion and
slandered by enemies, lcstn*ed and cri/
ieised by those who have
NO 16
task of ad rising theui. and patronized
by friends. Through »dl the vicissitude
that have to/lowed the t-lose of the
war betweeu the States, they have
patiently earnestly, hopefully remained
Stedhist ii> their determination to build
up their want places, and to cause plen¬
ty and prosperity again to abound n
the land. Their faces have iudead and
in truth, been turned towards the mor¬
ning. Darkness has frequently faihn
on the iund, and dispare has tugged. at
the hearts cf many; disappointment
has many a time chilled the hopes
thousands’, disaster has full often dash¬
ed to the ground the fair structure
presperity tint was beginning to raise
itself aloft; bullet our Southren peo¬
ple have never faltered. As line gray
lilies swept on over every obsticle in
battle so now have the of the South
swept on to victory over disastei and
discouragement.
w hat manner of people are these?
Eighteen^ ears ago the South w as ini
poverialied, bankrupt. Ruin and deso¬
lation had spread ov**r the laud,
poverty hat) fol/owed in their wake.
Then caiue the struggle of
life again under strang and totally
change] circumstance*, and with t’ i e
political emi'tion adding addition. ]
difficulty to the economic problem.
We believe that we state what is in¬
controvertible. when wo say that the
attention of the people of ‘he North
has been called much ino>e the faults
of the Southern people thau to their
good qualities since the close of the
war. And yet a people who have
achieved success in the teeth of* dffieul
ties hav« to overcome; a people who
have plucked from the nettle disaster the
prosperity; are entitled now to a
of the judgement pronounced
them by many. For example
cau not be considered to bo with¬
euergy and thriftless: they can not
termed “raisers of nothing else,” as
have termed them in the pant; and
can not be that the favorite occupa¬
of a large portion of them is to ride
with shotgun on ahofder and pis¬
in belt.
The P eo P le of theSvolb have theiT
—what people have not? but that
are possessed of qualifies worthy
of respect and aud admiration
candid man must acknowledge
be reflect! upon the work aeoom
by them.
