NODKIIX MEETIN ROUE. Howdy. Davy! light an' hitch; that's no one home but me; Thar aint a mau livin', air, l*d aooner like ter m; For Nance and Llddy’a gone ter aeo a nick man on the hill. An’ Hiram’a gone to get hia griat at Jaaon Turn er’a mill. I was in town laa* Sunday, an* my heart an’on* agreed To go to meetln’—-ef you’ll wait I’ll tell you what I Keed. The holla wor tollin’ lively on the balmy mornlu* air. An’ folk# wor in a harry, like the raahin’ to a fair. The meetin’ houae waa built ov atone, the steeple pinted high, The winders they wor painted all the colors of the aky; An* runnin’ up the steeple waa a great long light nln’ rod— I kinder thought the members lacked confidence is God. The big bell sorter hushed hltself, and then hit ruug some more. An’ people cum iu carriages au’ got out at the door; The wimmin fixed thar dresses like they meant to make a call, Thar face* showed they warn’t a thiukiu’ ov their souls at ail. Well. Davy, thar I stood au' thought— ’twaa wicked I suppose— Some go to church to cloae thar eyes, au' some to eye thar cloae; I overheard old Missus Swell to Missus Steb bins say, “My darter Becky a dress warn’t done—she won t be here to-day.” I stood thar hesitatin’ like what sort ov move to make; I felt that I ahould go inside for my salvation's sake; I started meekly in the house; I knew it warn’t no harm. With my old broad-brim hat in bun’ and jeans coot on my arm. I went along 'bout half-way up the velvet-carpet °iaen an’ wimruin ahut thargrtes, an’ they Jfcagln to smile; \3feed one open just a bit; went in an’ pulled it ' to. When Brown, the banker, riz an' said, “This ere’s a rented pew.” I got out of hia “rented pew” an' sot down near the door. A fine dressed stranger—he cum in—the mem bers didn’t wait’ But every feller jumped at him, au’ opened wide his gate. The parson riz an' ra sed his han't, with oold an’ haughty air, An* everybody in the house stood up an’ heard his prayer. I don't know how it is with them— somehow I al ways feel I'm doin’ God injustice when I get too proud to kneel. Then all sot down an’stared about; then st the parson’s face. While he put on his specs au’ said, “Let's sing Amazin’ Grace.” An organ busted loose up stairs—the music hit was gay, Hit tickled them as couldn't sing, an’ them wot had to pay. The magic quit, the parson riz—they passed the hats rouu next. Ah, when the deekins got them down—the par son tuck his text. He preached about two hours 'bout the Faith in God to keep; The wiminin folks wor noddin' while tbar hus bands wor asleep. One gal sed to another. “Have you seen my beau to-day?” She nod her head and then say back, “The party hit was gay.” One whispered loud enough behind her fan forme to hear, “That bonnet Sofy Tag's got on is ouo she had last year.” The parson quit and then sot down—the organ played agin. I thought ef that was servin’ God, the tunes they played was thin; I have hearn the band at circuses jest play the •elf-same air. The parson, when the orgiu quit, dismissed them all with prayer. Now, Davy, ef the angels seed what I did, I be lieve Thar warn’t a one among ’em all but what lat Ted in thar sleeve; For God don’t smile on Christians who his bless ings will abuse; He hain’t no use fur orgius, an’He den't like rented pews. He rings no bells to tell’em that the Sabbath's come once more; The angela have n carriages to drive up to His door. Such Christians might as will look up to God, an’ sweetly smile An’ say, “I send my soul, dear Lord; I'm cornin’ arter a while.’’ Our Master up in Heaven, Davy; sees—hears every thing. He likes to see His children kueel—an’ loves to hear ’em sing; For wharHe lives the angels sing an’ Christiana get their dues. liis music costs Him nothin’ and He has no rented pews. Thar ain't no use o’ foolin’ long the road down to the grave; Thar ia no way o’ dodgin’ when you’ve got yer aoui to save. Fins churches, orgins, carriages, clothes, rented pews an' •♦pelf.” Don’t count that day—it lays between yer Maker an* ye reelf. —•■■■■ ♦ ♦ • A Hunter Killed bv Panthers.—A most remarkable eireumstauce is chronicled in Hamilton, Madison county, the truth of which has been vouched for by reliable parties. In the wilderness of this county there lived a sturdy countryman named John Dunniug, with his fam ily, in a rude hut of his own construc tion. One day early last week Dun ning saw a bear passing near his home; whereupon he immediately prepared himself with a rifle and hunting-knife, and, with his dog, started in pursuit of Bruin. Night came on and he did not return. His wife, becoming alarmed at his ab sence, sent to a neighboring settle ment and enlisted the aid of a couple of men, who plunged into the wilder ness to discover the missing man. After a most fatiguing search, last ing several hours, they came upon the mangled remainsof Dunning and his dog, while near them lay three dead panthers. Two of them, young ones, bore marks of having been shot by Dunning, while the mother met her death while fighting Dun ning, who had plunged his hunting knife into her vital parts, where it was found by the searchers. Dun ning. while following the bear, had probably been intercepted by these more voracious animals, and met his death while protecting his person from the gnashing jaws of the mo ther panther, whose young ones he had slain.— Elmira (Jr. Y.) Advertiser. Irani the A T . T. Daily Graphic (Rep.), Dec. 14.] The action of the Louisiana re turning board in refusing to answer the questions of the House Commit tee may be justified on technical grounds. But „nere is no question that in the present temper of the public mind, it was unwise and un politic. It at once raises the suspi cion that these gentlemen have some thing they want to hide from the public knowledge. When fonr men set their backs squarely against a closed door, refusing to tell what it contains or to open it, people natu ially forget all questions of legality and dignity,and conclude that a skel eton is hid inside. What the people of both parties want, is the simple truth about this election business. If Mr. Hayes Is fairly elected the facts will show It, and any attempt, under any plea whatever, to hide the facts from the public knowledge, will only deepen the shadow of sus picion under which he will enter on nis great office, and increase the diffi culties of his arduous position. Neither party can now afford to do anything that has not the appear ance of being fair and above board. —The Oglethorpe Echo bays: The wages of laborers for next year have been per ceptibly reduced, owtng to the distressing hard times and great scarcity of mosey. Hands that last year were paid ten dollars per month are now glad to procure work at eight dollars. Railroads MOBILE & GIRARD R.r! ______ if h'MawMinns ii yt " COLtmaus, o*., November 26, 1876.

NEW YORK. 1877. The different editions of The Sun during the next year will be the same as during the year that has just passed. The daily edition will on week days be a sheet of four pages, and on Sun days a sheet of eight pages, or 56 broad columns; while the weekly edition will be a sheet of eight pages of the same dimensions and character that are already familiar to our friends. The Sun will continue to be the strenuous ad vocate of reform and retrenchment, and of the substitution of statesmanship, and integrity for hollow pretence, imbecility and fraud in the administration of public affairs. It will contend for the government of the people by the people and for the people, as opposed to government by frauds in the ballot-box and in the counting of votes, enforced by military vio lence. It will endeavor to supply its readers—a body not now far from a million souls—with the most careful, complete and trustworthy accounts of current events, and will employ for this pur pose a numerous and carefully selected staff of reporters and correspondents. Its reports from Washington, especially, will be full, accurate and fearless; and it will doubtless continue to de serve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive by plundering the Treasury or by usurping what the law does not give them, while it will endeavor to merit the confidence of the public by defend ing the rights of the people against the encroach ments of unjnstified power. The price of the Daily Sun will be 65 cents a month or $6.50 a year, post-paid, or with the Sunday edition $7.70 a year. The Sunday edition alone, eight pages, $1.20 a year, post-paid. The Weekly Sun, eight pages of M broad col umns, will be furnished during 187 T at the rate of $1 a year, post-paid. The benefit of this large reduction from the firevious rate for the Weekly can be enjoyed by ndividual subscribers without the necessity of making up clubs. At the same time, if any of our friends choose to aid in extending our circu lation, we shall be grateful to them, and every such person who sends us ten or more subscrib ers from one place will be entitled to one copy of the paper for himself without charge. At one dollar a year, postage paid, the expenses of paper and printing are barely repaid; and. considering the size of the sheet and the quality of its con tents. we are confident the people will consider The Weekly Sun the cheapest newspaper pub lished in the world, and we trust also oi e of the very best.

The following is an extract from a description, published in the New York Tribune, by the wel known agriculturist, Solon Robinson: * All the farmers were of the “well to do” sort, and some of them, who have turned their attention to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. The soil is loam, varying from sandy to clayey, ami surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wet meadows, iu which deposits of peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilize the whole upland surface, after it has been exhausted of its natural fertility. It is certainly ene of the most extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farming, that we know of this side of the Western prairies. We found some of the oldest farms apparently just as profitably productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a hundred years ago. The geologist would soon discover tho cause of this continued fertility. The whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertia ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to cultivate.

The Xanthine is the only hair dressing I have ever used which has removed the dandruff from tho scalp and made my hair soft and pliable.
