Minnie Laurie.
Maxwelton braes are bonnie,
Where early fa’s the dew,
And it’s there that Annie Laurie
Gie’d me her promise true
Gie’d me her promise true,
Which ne’er forgot will be,
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I’d lay me doun and dee.
Her brow is like the snow drift,
Her throat is like the swan,
Her face it is the fairest
That e’er the sun shone on —
That e’er the sun shone on;
And dark blue is her e’e,
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I’d lay me doun and dee.
Like dew on the gowan lying,
Is the fa’ o’ her fairy feet,
And like the winds of Summer sighing
Her voice is low and sweet —
Her voice is low and sweet,
And she’s a’ the world to me ;
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I’d lay me doun and dee.

To the chief musician upon Nehilolh,
A Psalm of David.
L't IVE ear to my words, O Lord, consider
VTmy meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my
King, and my God; for unto thee will I
pray.
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morn
ing, O Lord ; in the morning will 1 direct
my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
4 For thou art not a God that hath plea
sure in wickedness; neither shall evil dwell
with thee.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy
sight; thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak
leasing; the Lord will abhor the bloody
and deceitful man.
7 But as to me, I will come into thy house
in the multitude of thy mercy ; and in thy
fear will I worship toward thy holy tem
ple.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness
because of mine enemies; make thy way
straight before my face.
9 P'or there is no faithfulness in their
mouth; their inward part is very wicked
ness ; their throat is an open sepulchre; they
Hatter with their tongue. •
10 Destroy thou them, O God ; let them
fall by their own counsels ; cast them out
in the multitude of their transgressions; for
they have rebelled against thee.
11 But let all those that put their trust
in thee rejoice; let them ever shout for joy,
because thou defended them : let them also
that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 For thou, Lord, wilt bless the right
eous; with favor wilt thou compass him as
with a shield.

BUILDING OF THE AUGUSTA NATIONAL EXPOSITION.
We present on this page a pic
ture of the National Exposition build
ing in Augusta. The exposition was
opened on the Bth of tlvs month, and
will last until the 15ih of December.
That it will be a grand success we
have no doubt.
The main building is 960 feet long
by 400 feet wide. The race track is
a full standard mile in length. All
the other preparations are on a propor
tionate scale. >
The numerous trains run by the W.
& A. R. R. at night are serving a
double purpose. They not only keep
up the hum of commerce, but the
train men afford a pretty fair night
watch for the towns along the line.
The alarm which attracted the Cal
houn people to a knowledge of the dis
astrous fire, Tuesday morning, was
first sounded by the whistle of a pass
ing train. Twice have the Dalton
people been roused to the danger of
fire by these ever-passing trains, in
time to avert most disastrous confla
grations. For general utility the VV. &
A. is hard to surpass. — Dalton Arqus,

Some of the grandest scenery in
America is exhibited from Lookout
Mountain, rightabove the city of Chat
tanooga. By the Western & Atlantic
Railroad from Atlanta, and the rail
road leading to the top of the moun
tain you now go upon grand old Look
out without the tedious hack drive
which was formerly an inevitable part
of the trip. See that your tickets read
over the W. & A. R. R.

ATLANTA, CA., NOVEMBER 15, 1888.
Life of Gen. P. R. Cleburne.
Mr. Joseph M. Brown, of Atlanta,
has secured through Judge L. H.
Mangum, of Washington, D. C., who
was on the staff of General P. R.
Cleburne, a number of papers which
gives the history of General Cleburne
and his magnificent division during
the war between the states. With
the papers was an autobiography by
General M. P. Lowrey,‘now dead’who
was one of General Cleburne’s Briga
dier-Generals. This we have inserted in
the present edition of the Kennesaw
Gazette.
General Lowrey, it will be seen,
modestly requested that this be not
published in his own words, but as we
can see no possible objection to it,have
done so nevertheless.
We will began the publication of
the Cleburne papers proper in our
issue of January 1, 1889. There are
some things in these papers which
have never been published before,
which will be of intense interest to our
readers.
The Kennesaw Gazette is happy
to announce that it will be the first pa
per in America io make public
documents referred to.
The Western & Atlantic is the only
line in the South running four through
passenger trains per day each way, from
one terminal to the other. It, there
fore, offers advantages over all other
lines for tourists going from Atlanta
to the north and northeast.
The Western & Atlantic Rail
road.
A correspondent of the Marietta
Journal, in communication to that pa
per says:
It is a source of no little gratifica
tion to have the candid and disinterest
ed opinion of a man of acknowledged
ability, mature judgment, and eminent
in public service, upon issues of prime
importance. The influence of such
opinion, backed by cogent reasoning
and a thorough acquaintance with the
matter under consideration must have
its weight in determining the opinion
and action of others.
The late utterance of Senator
Brown in regard to the State Railroad
must have been something of a sur
prise as well as pleasure and will
doubtless serve to place him in a very
favorable light before a large number
of the reflecting people of Georgia.
As he was very reticent in regard to
the sale of that road during the dis
cussion of the bill by the last Legisla
ture, it was construed into his
acquiescence with the support of the
bill and also that with shrewdness and
tact he contemplated being a par
ty to the purchase. Now, however,
that illusion is happily dispelled, and
so far from being a purchaser, the
Senator opposes the sale, and, speak
ing merely as a citizen of Georgia,
gives ample reason why the property
should remain in the hands of the
State. It would appear that some of
the people can hardly realize the value
of this great road. Not only have the
lesees made it pay, (which they had a
perfect right to) else they would have
given the property up, but under the
judicious management of President
Brown there has been almost a new
era on the subject of railroading in
Georgia. The road has been kept
abreast of all the improvements of the
times; has reduced the cost of repairs
to the minimum, thereby setting an
example of incalculable value to the
business generally ; has been lavish in
expenditures for public comfort, and
in face of all this has reduced fares
for the traveling public below the re
quirements of the law. These facts
can but be appreciated by the people
of this State.
The Western & Atlantic Railroad
has achieved the reputation of being
the fast freight line from the west to
the south. See that your bills of
lading consign freight for southeastern
points to care of Western & Atlantic
Railroad at Chattanooga.
