an advocate before “twelve men In

Clement L. Vnllandlgham, Carmack
was too positive and too lnten»e a

the politician, the lawyer can not

Hence Itf wn* perfectly naturAI for
Carmack to abandon the bar for tno

noble profession. Orir country hn*

than h e was; but Carmack was a man
of action as well as u man of thought,

was a born lender, and Isham G. Har

thin har fender gild
has that house been so profoundly
Impressed, so deeply gtlrred. ns when
Carmack bowed nnd sat down that
day. There wer# too many tears for
riot.
I know I shall be pardoned fo? f In
serting It here:
The south la n U.nq that has known
•oirowa; It Is & land that has broken
the ashen crust and moDtencd It with
It* tears; a land sacred and riven toy
the plowshare of war and billowed
with the graves of her dea<l. but a
land of legend, a land of song, a land
of hallowed and heroic memories. To
thht land every drop of my blood,
•very fiber of my being, every pulsa
tion ot my heart Is consecrated for
ever. I waa horn of hor womb; I
wus nurtured at her breast, anfl when
my last hour shall con.e I pray God I
nyiV be pillowed upon her bosom and
rocked to sleep with
encircling arms.
I have ono suggestion to make, one
prayer to offer—that every southern
mother teach her child, tho pride of
her home, and the hope of her land,
to repeat thnt matchless paasstre
Plant It In his memory when 1t is
young nnd plastic. It can not hut
lead him to noble thoughts and gen
erous Impulses.
Genius, statesman, orator, publicist,
patriot, gentleman, Christian, farewell
—"the first southerner of his day" Is
the epitaph!

If we would only Pity show ’
To those who need our pity so
The world would so much brighter grow,
And wo could *0 much comfort give
To those around us while we live.
If words of kindness we would speak,
If Christ’s ways we would only seek
And ever strive to be ss meek,
Wo would not find eo much of gloom.
And^^flowers of peace for ue would
If wo*d forbear the bitter word,
And llst>not to the scandnls hranl,
Forget some things which have occurred.
How sweet to tread life's highway
here.
And naught we then would have to
fear.
If now we could only sea
Thnt rfo0 controls the things that he,
That He will rule eternity;
If we could say, "Thy will be done,"
How bleesed would be every one.
If we’d but keep the vows we take
And evory evil thing forsske.
If sscrinces we would make,
Now joy* for us would then abound.
And In the end —"

A CYNIC’S COMMENT.
(If changes like those which have boen
In progress In this country during the
last half century were to contlnuo un

there would be no children left.—Prof.
W. P. Wilcox of Cornell.)
Ah, blissful age of Twenty-flfty-right;
It mokes me rege
To have It come so late.
No Wds to howl. In back-yard concert
While I must growl
And swear moat helplesaly.
No gjr!s and boys, on glad Thanksgiving
Nvith masks and noise
To plague the cynic gray.
No apple thieves for any one to snare;
My spirit grieves
That I sail not be there.
No Uxei.^thi
Or women—grown op’ fools.
Of course, we'll die, of ennui or disease;
But. *
