IF WE COULD KNOW.
Catherine S. Hasjn, in Boston Courier.
Whithher do onr footsteps tend?
More and more we yearn to know,
As life’s shadows longer grow,
And the evening hours descend,
And before ns lies the end,
When the door shall open wide,
And behind us softly close,
What to onr expectant eyos
Will the future life disclose?
Shall we see a morning break,
Fair and fragant and serene,
Seeming like a blessed dream.
Of some unforgotten eve?
Shall we walk in gladness on,
Under smiling skies of blue
Through an ever deepening dawn,
Info wide fields fresh and new?
Meeting those who came before, •
Knowing each famaliar look
And each well remembered tone,
Though so many years had flown,
Since each ether’s hand we took,.
Saying farewells o’er and o’or?
Shall we talk of earthly days,
Speaking low, with bated breath,
Of the awful mystery
Of onr human life and death;
Shall we wonder to recall
How onr hopes were prone to fear,
Hew we scarcely dared to hope
If any heaven, so far, so near?
Ah! if we could only know,
As the shadows deeper grow,
Whither our swift footsteps tend,
As they surely near the end!

• In the month of Aegnst, 1853,
the writer being nearly prostrated
from close confinement at work
and dyspepsia, left home for the
mountains in .North Georgia. .
After a short stay, instead of
improving; my ailings became
alarming. Hurrying home, I de
termined to try the sea, and as soon
as fcould reach it—only a few
days, found me enroute by the
Cenfral R. R., via Savannah. Ar
rived at night, and the next morn
ing boarded the new steamer, Mag
nolia, Captain McNelty, bound for
the St. John’s river. In a few
hours we were on the blue, res
tless Atlantic.
- Oar little craft was a staunch
side-wheel steamer, newly painted.
It was indeed a thing of beauty,
and its name expressive and ap
propriate. Its interior appoint
ments—finish, furniture apd dra
pery, were in keeping and beauti
ful contrast with its exterior, and
the light and charms of the beau-
ful world around ns.'L pon the cen
ter table of the richly carpeted
cabin rested the Word of Life, a
fine guilt'Bible, with the words
“Presented to the Magnolia by the
Chatham County Bible Society,”
written upon its blank leaf. The
pencil murks of portions of it-np-
propriate to thoughts of a “Home
and voyage on the roering deep,”
proved that it had not been neg
lected. Also on the book stood a
large vase of pure gold, engraved
upon it-'“Presented to Captain
McNelty as a token of appreciation
by the Cougress of the U. S. of
his valuable services rendered the
Government during the Indian
war iu-Florida.” That book and
that token; with the personel
our captain and his model crew,
dispelled all fear of old ocean and
wp felt ourselves in good hands
and safe.
Now appeared the wide expanse
of water to the eastward, and the.
deep green island girt coast of
Georgia dotted with white villages,
whose shining church steeples and
spires "point upward to the City
which hath foundations, to the
westward charmed us as we looked
out from the upper deck. Here we
are, out where sky and water only
meet. A beautiful day, a cloudless
day; an exquisitely delightful
breeze; the rolling waves from four
to six feet in sparkling phospho
rescent colors, and white caps chas
ing each in quick succession.
But the delightful scene and my
enjoyment of it ended- suddenly.
The curtain falls; my head was
swimming, Neptun’s physic devel
oped a genuine case of sea sick
ness, daring which a perfect in
difference as to whether 1 ever

This is said to be the experience of

A LAND OF PLENTY.
y~-
This is a land of plenty, yet in
the great cities there are tens of
thousands who are always on the
verge of starvation: There are
years when the corn crop is so
largeRiat corn grown in the west
will not bear transportation to
market, the price being too low. A
great deal is therefore used for
fuel, it being cheaper than woodor
coal. There have been years in
which thousands of bushels of corn
have been used as fuel in Kansas.
Louisiana this year has a - very
large sugar crop, and the sugar
planters are'debnting how to get
rid of the lower grades of their
molasses. It is estimated that they
will have"600,000 barrels of molas
ses, and fully half of it cannot be
sold for a price that will pay for
barreling for it. Last year the low
est grade of molasses sold as low as
5 cents a gallon in New Orleans. It
would cost almost as much as that
to transport it to market.
The molasses is given away to
those who will go to the sugar
houses for it, and tens of thou
sands of gallons were emptiedTuto
the Mississippi river and other
streams last year.
It is proposed to use the molas
ses this year for fuel. An experi
ment has been made with it, audit
is found to answer admirably as
fuel and to be cheaper than the
cheapest coal.
Is it not remarkable that while
so many are in practical want corn
and molasses should be used as
fuel? It does seem as if. there
onght to be no suffering for food
in a country where there is such an
abundance of it, bnt those who
need the food and those who have
it are wide apart. The problem is
to get the food to those who are in
need of it at a price which they
can afford.
There is a river iu the ocean. In
the severest droughts it never "fails,
an<j the migktest flood it never
overflows. Its banks and its bot
tom are of cold water, while its
current is of warm. The Gulf of
Mexico is its fountain, and its
mouth is iu the Artie seas. It is
the Gulf Btrem. There is iu the
world no other so majestic a flow
of water. Its current is swifter
than the Mississippi or the Ama
zon, and its volume^more than one
thousand nine handled times
greater. Its waters as far as the
Carolina coasts are indigo blue.
They are so distinctly marked that
the common sea-water can be
traced with the eye. Often one-
half the vessel may be seen float
ing in the Gulf Stream water while
the other half is iu the common
water of ihe sea, so sharp is the
line and want of affinity between
those waters,-and such too the re
luctance, so to speak, on the part
oE that of the Gnlf Stream to min
gle with the common water of the
sea. In addition to these, there is
another peculiar fact. The fisher
men of Norway are supplied by it
with wood from the tropics.

to glisten before the vision a ver

waves and bi’eaking white caps.
To see the perfection of beauty
you must view the sun rise. It is
the eve cf the dawn. The blue
ocean of the aniverse, glittering
with the Isles of light, is spread
out before you, while God’s high
orchestra, the stars, hymn

the God of Day. The orient flush

away into more gorgeous colors.
The tiny dewdrop on the scented
leaf sways to the scented breeze,
as Morn’s rich red gold lies on the
tinted skies and woods. Day’s
azure arches.are thrown wide open
by Aurora, as with noiseless march
the flame of early sunlight comes
npon the zenith, tingeing with its
golden crimson hue the jagged
steep and gray crag-rifted fissure
of each mountain peak. The deli
cate lacf^work of the highest cloud
that covers the entire dome of the
sky with its filmy tracery, and ex
quisitely wrought veil of white,
hanging between ns and the azure
vault, cause the latter to appear
only the bluer through its diapha

the breezy heights, while leafy col

shadowed vistas, green dingles,

cheeks,” “laughing meadows cra

shadowless current of resplendent

Delightful also is a view of the
close of day, as the passion of the
snn glows over the floating clouds.
The vast expanse above is flecked
with clonds. White-winged cloud

shrined clouds float as they-sleep,

studded in ebony and coral. As
the sunset’s glowing roses fade
from the purple crest of the moun
tains, the silver-tinted mists veil
hill and valley, rock and stream-
As the sunset seeks to gild earth’s
glowing valleys and is there de
nied an entrance, it rises to the

glow of heaven’s glories Twilight

the crop results of 1891, taken as a
whole, surpassing those of any pre
vious year. If the present prom
ise of the cotton crop should be re
alized,. we shall have a close ap
proximatfoh to the great product
of last year. Com, according to
the acreage and condition reported
to the agricultural bureau, is like
ly to give at least an aver
age output. For the wheat crop,
the lowest estimated yield is 520,-
000,000 bushels and the maximum
five hundred and seventy-five to
six Hundred millions, against last
year’s crop of 400,000,000. A har
vest like this is the one thing need
ed to put the business of the conn
try in first-class condition. The
farmers have been suffering for so
many years, not only from the
grossly unequal tariff burthens laid
upon them, but also from low
prices for their products, that their
industry has been undergoing a
steady decaflence. A harvest such
as we have now promised will ena
ble them to liquidate a large
amount of debt and provide them
with better facilities for cultiva
tion. It wilkmean so many more
millions of capital put into repro
ductive resources, and its benefits
will therefore be permanent.
The memory of last year’s ex
traordinary drain of cash to the in
terior and of the consequent de
structive stringency in the loan
market gives rise to some anxiety
as to how far we may be exposed
this fall to a like experience. And
yet there seems to be no serious
ground for such apprehensions.
Last year confidence was pros
trated by world-wide crisis, and
trade was thereby denied its usual
credit facilities at the season when
it needs them most; no such con
ditions exist now. This year, the
cash resources of the New York
banks available for helping the
crop movements are nearly double
what they were a year ago, added
to which we are in a position to
command from Europe any amount
of gold we are likely to need for
interior purposes, by virtue of the
extraordinary purchases of grain
which the continental nations will
have to make iu onr markets.
While, therefore, we may experi
ence a reasonably active money
market, we see no reason for appre
hending any embarrasing strin
gency,
Assuming that the harvest turns
out as it now promises, it seems
bafe to anticipate for the second
half of the year a run of active and
prosperous business.

What this complaint will develop

Wonders have so multiplied in
these days that opinions differ as
to what can be considered the
“seven wonders of tho modern
world.” According to some au
thorities, they are the art of print
ing, the discovery'and invention of
optical instruments, gunpowder,
the steam-engine, photography, la
bor-saving machinery, and the
electric telegraph. Others make
this enumeration: The Brooklyn
Bridge, the Great Eastern;, the
Suez Canal, the St. Gothard Tun
nel, the Pacific Railway, the At
lantic Cable, and the Electric
Light. In ancient days the seven
wonders were reckoned to be^ the
Pyramids of Egypt, the Hanging
Gardens of Babylon, the tomb of
Mausolus, the Temple of Diana at
Ephesus, the Colossus of Rhodes,
the statue of Jupiter by Phidias,
and the Pharos of Egypt, or else
the palace of Cyrus cemented with

Much injury is done by the use
of irritating, griping compounds
taken as purgatives. In Ayer’s
Pills, the patient has a mild but
effective cathartic, that can be con-
ficlently recommended alike for the
most delicate patients as well ng
the time, of their jast rights, Such
cases at each recarring term con
sume more or less time of the
court, and the court’s time is a tax
upon the people, and, therefore, to
this- extent, the people are thus
made to bear an unnecessary bur
den. Besides in such cases, often
times witnesses who have no per
sonal interest in the cases at issue
are campelled to attend court from
term to term, thereby neglecting
their own business and losing time
that might otherwise be devoted to
their individual interest. *
Again, there is observable a
growing tendency -towards this
same delay and dilatory proceed
ings iu the prosecution of those
charged with grave and serious
crimes. Every subterfuge is re
sorted to that promises to stave off
and put as far away as possible
the day of punishment iu such
cases, thus defeating morally the
wholesome principle that punish
ment tor crime should be. prompt
and speedy. Out of delays in such
cases not unfrequently come jail
breakings and the turning loose of
criminals upon the public, which
tends to foster instead of enre in
clination to crime.
We would not have the courts,
by hasty proceedings, violate the
sacred rights of trial by jury,which
belongs to every American, native
or naturalized. Nor would we
kaye hasty punishment visited up
on the seemingly guilty, bnt upon
those whom the law and the evi
dence,’ under a fair and impartial
investigation, condemn.
That there are evils resalting
from court delays iu handling
criminals, is a fact* too patent to
admit of denial.
And right along on this line
thereiB need of reform.

enables the system to throw off the
malady. Catarrh and its attend

S. S. S., and so do all other "dis
eases that grow out of a bad liver
and impure blood.
In compliance with the orders of
the County Board of Health, the
sixty-five undertakers in Hudson
c.mnty, New Jersey, have provided
themselves with new “weepers,” to
be used in eases of death from
small-pox, measleSTspotted fever,
yellow fever, diphtheria and scar
let fever. The “weeper”is a piece
of purple ribbon eighteen inches
long, and two inches wide, and is

party cannot imperil the position
of Georgia, “because Georgia will
go either for the new party or for

does not seem to reflect that every

farmers’ alliance. From demo
cratic success the fanners have
much to expect. Froig republican

plain the position of a man who
will put the Ocala platform before

tends to be a democrat .in state is
sues, and a third party man in na
tional issues. Such a man would
be divided against himself. A
friend to democracy in October, an
enemy in November; a St. Louis
man in the fall, an Ocala man in

an apostate for President The

support any national ticket that
does not- endorse, in its entirety, I

There is no disease more disa

the old, and it is too often allow

cases it frequently becomes dan

the throat and lungs, resulting in
complications that are not readily
overcome. All forms of catarrh,
however, disappear before S. S. S.,
