FLOWERS. BY ANNIE C. HF.YFRON. I These sweet flowers dear, 1 send thee; Take them mv love, as a token; They will look at thee for me,— They will tell of love unspoken, IT They will look Into a soul As pure as angels on earth can be; They’ll remind thee of the absence Of a friend who longs for thee. III I have told them a little secret; Let them tell It. now to you; Let them look Into your dark oyos, As I used to love to do, IV Though the sweet little (lowers witlior, Yet their Iragranne Is not. gone; My love is not like the little Mowers, But like their perfume-lingers on.

From the Pioneer Press- The death of that treacherous old marauder cut-throat, coward and thief, Sitting Bull, has called out some cuiious literature in the east. Sympa thetic people who “knew him” are sending in letters to prominent jour nals telling what a noble fellow lie was. The very wording of their tear ful obituary notices make it plain to a western man that they were never in Sitting Bull’s country and never saw the old scoundrel in their lives. It is a vast pity that the people of New England know less about western affairs than they know about Europe, and are averse to knowing anything when an opportunity is afforded. Cuts, burns and all other wounds, can be cured iu a short time by the use of Salvation Oil, the greatest cure on earth f or pain. Price 25 cents. A certain minister of the gospel in Elberton had a funny experience recently. He was called into the country to marry a couple. When all seemed ready the minister ad vanced to await the coming of the bride and groom. One couple marched in and took place on the left another followed and took place by the first then followed another and halted a little father to tlie right. Not being acquaint ed with them, the minister, think ing the last couple were the candi dates for matrimony, turned to them and had them about half mar ried before the little lady, who stood blushing, squirmed and chok ing, exclaimed, “We ain’t the mar rying ones; itsthatothercoupleover there.” _ A fast train carrying the Western mail has been put ou the Georgia Road between Augusta and Macon.
