8 Psalm XXIII. David’s Confidence in God’s Grace. A PSALM OF DAVID. 1. The Lord is my shepherd ; I shall not want. 2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures : He leadeth me besido the still waters. $ 3. He restorcth my soul: He lead eth me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. 4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. 5. Thou prepares! a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Twent-y-third Psalm. The following poetic rendering of the 23d psalm is by Bev. Mr. Gutheim, of New Orleans, recently deceased : The Lord’s my shepherd evermore, I shall not want, nor e’er shall pine; By tranquil streams He’ll place my store On pastures sweet make me recline, lie cheers my soul for His own sake, He ever leads in virtue’s wake. And though I walk through shades of Death Through silent vales of mortal gloom— I fear no harm from mould’ring breath, God is with me beyond the tomb. His rod and staff will surely be My comfort in eternity. My wants He kindly will supply, My table in Ilis love prepare; Despite the glance of envy’s eye God will sustain me in His care; He will with oil annoint my head And on my cup His blessings shed. Thus grace and goodness will attend My journey to life’s hidden shore, And happiness will crown my end And be my portion evermore; For in God’s house I shall abide And ever bless my heavenly guide. Love and Death. They say she is dead, that her life went out Last night as the clocks struck eight; That the bride of a year at the altar stood Again with another mate; A mate called Death, who bore her away To a couch more quiet than mine, Where the love kiss comes from the lips of the worm, And the grave-damp symbols the wine. ’Tis false, and the liars who speak it know That they lie, for she left me but now, With the old-time light shining out of her eyes, And the old-time kiss on my brow. If Death wants her body ’tis his, I say ; Her love and her kisses are mine, And the love is as sweet as the love of gods, And the kisses are sweeter than wine. —Lou J. Beauchamp in Detroit Fi ee Press. In one end of the Western & At lantic railroad depot, stands a big clock, enclosed in a large glass case. The pendulum swings slowly, and the only sound is a low tick —tick —tick —tick. The influence of that quiet looking old clock is far reach ing. All the engineers and conduc tors and train men set their watches by the big clock. The lives of hun dreds of passengers and the safety of great property depend on the old clock attending strictly to business. The hands must tell the truth. The influence of the clock reaches still further than I have suggested. The people for a hundred and thirty-eight miles eat, sleep and work according THE GREAT KENNESAW ROUTE GAZETTE.

The ap pearance of the “up passenger,” or the “down passenger,” or the “goober,” or the “way freight,” or the “light ning express” settles the question of a local time-keeper’s accuracy. “Rail road time” is regarded as the only re liable, and in its presence all other times are forced to the wall. — Atlanta Consti tution. One of the loveliest views which can be seen from the trains of the Western & Atlantic railroad is that looking east, down the historic Noonday Valley. Just on the north side is Kennesaw Mountain, immediately west is Brush Mountain, and the winding Noonday Creek can be seen flowing quite a dis tance to the east. Looking southward is Kennesaw Mountain and the upper end of Noonday Valley. White Path Springs are fast becom ing very popular with summer tourists. Under the proprietorship of Mrs. W. L. Robertson, these springs are secur ing an enviable name. The hotel is beautifully located, the water is ex tremely beneficial,and both the atmos phere and scenery are all that could be desired. By all means spend a por -1 tion of the summer at White Path | Springs, and stop en route at Marietta, ' the “Gem City of Georgia,” as you go or return. Marietta has superb hotels and board ing houses, a fine livery stable, splen did drives, beautiful scenery, pure water, glorious atmosphere; and is on ly twenty miles from Atlanta, with about half a dozen trains per day each way. “Rules of the Road,” at Sea. Some rhyming sea-dog has set steer ing rules for vessels to jingle, as fol lows. Two steamships meeting : When both side lights you see ahead — Port your helm, and show your Red. Two steamships passing : Green to Green —or Red to Led — Perfect safety- go ahead! Two steamships crossing: If to your starboard Red appear, It is your duty to keep clear, To act as judgment says is proper; To Port—or Starboard —Back—or Stop her ? But when upon your port is seen A steamer’s starboard light of Green, There’s not so much for you to do, For Green to port keeps clear of you. All ships must keep a good lookout: Both in safety and indoubt Always keep a good lookout. In danger with no room to turn, Ease her!—Stop her! —Go astern! Seeing a vessel at anchor: Ahead you see an anchor light, Then port or starboard—do what’s right According to the wind and tide To pass in safety either side; But if collision should ensue, Then quickly summon all the crew To man the boats without delay, And don’t attempt to run away. The Atmosphere of North Geor gia for Invalids. It has been demonstrated that one of the best remedies for, or preventions of pulmonary troubles is pure and ex hilarating atmosphere; hence, Col orado and New Mexico, each meeting these requirements to a remarkable degree, are becoming the regions to which all who are troubled or threat ened with bronchial or pulmonary troubles, resort. But figures tell their own story, and the United States Census Reports, which are the most accurate of any in America, show that the mountainous portion of northern Georgia is the healthiest region in America, in this respect. The pure and exhilarating atmos phere, almost reaching from Marietta to the Tennessee and North Carolina line, is remarkably beneficial to peo ple threatened with hay fever, or oth erwise predisposed to consumption and bronchial affections. When it is taken into consideration that at Marietta and White Path there are superb hotels, well kept, it is not a matter of any wonder that people who are posted come in great numbers tn those points. The beginning has as yet been hardly seen in this respect. The great advantage which this re gion enjoys over Colorado and New Mexico, is, that invalids are here with in a day’s ride of their homes, and members of their family can come up from the low country and spend a day or two with them at any time and re turn, at little cost and with little an noyance; whereas, in going to the tar western sanitariums there are difficult ies which are incident to a long and wearisome trip of several days in du ration and accompanied by all the an noyance of frequent changes of cars, the heat and dust, and the other ac companiments of travel.
