Tlie Land of Dreams.
Listen end I’ll tell to you
Of a land I’ve wandered thro’
■Stories, strange, rare and true.
Tis often that I wand ring go,
Strolling For slowly to and fro:
its seerects I would know.
Coming, Many are passing on that way,
None going, night and day.
were ever known to stay.
Long within that unknown “where? ’
There’s but one way leading th»rc—
To that land both weird and rare.
Many stories men have told,
Many more they still wlthold,
Gained by them In days of old.
From that land’s mysterious lore,
Head and ponder o’re and o’re;
Once you read and road no more.
Though Tis to that laud you often stray,
strange, tho’ true, you never may
Meet mortal man upon tho way.
Ton'll find nowhere the way Is steep—
Kr.ter In at the gate of sleep;
There no vigil watchers keep.
Think it false or think It so;
Count It weal or count it woe;
Thro’ the land of “Nod” you go.
Open, open wide your eyol
Home one’s house you drawing nigh.
It Is “Nap’s,” so pass it by.
Here it Is, all light, all beams!
Tho' nothing lie,re, is as It see : 8;
For this, yea this’s, the Land of Dreams.”
—J. Sanford Edwards.

There’s Egypt’s dying, Cleveland's dead:
no Hood of fears to be shed.
Hear the shouts of jubilee
From the mountains to the sea.
See the traitor, see the czar,
As he wanders now afar,
Despised by those whom he Viet rayed:
I ho’ they of him a ruler made.
Oh. let him go! an Arnold he;
A foe to right and liberty.
Unlike the Judas, he of old,
Sold his country for bars of gold.
Uong as time doth passing roll,
Write it not on hist’l'y’s scroll;
Lot not man Its page defame;
Ho foul, bo false, despised his name.
But let not hlst’iy’s line be broke;
Tho’ we endure the galling yoke.
Yet. thanks to God, ’tis o’re at last;
Ills deeds, his crimes, are of the past.
fho’ still we feel the smarting pain,
We know ’twill never be again;
And this doth part assuage our woe.
Then let him go! Oh, let him go!
There’s no honor for him now,
A traitor who belied his vow.
Oh let him pass—forgotten be,
From time thro’ all eternity

Around Newton.
Newton, on tlie banks of Flint river,
in Baker county, is a pleasant place to
visit at any time. There you are hale
fellow well met by all if you behave
yourself. The square has a somewhat
dilapidated appearance. A paint brush
would add much to Newton if properly
applied, but when you meet the citizens
of the placo and shake the hand of all
who meet you—which is extended in
friendly welcome—you forget the sur¬
roundings and only think of tlie nice
people you meet. Newton is connected
with Albany by telephone, and by this
you see they are net entirely cut ofl
from the outside world, if they have no
railroad. Wo noticed that many nice
residences had just been completed, and
others in course of erection, which
clearly demonstrates the fnct that New¬
ton is not dead nor dying. Her merch¬
ants are progressive, pushing men and
have nice lines of goods on hand, each
yieing with the other to excel in a
friendly way—all ready to accommodate
a customer. The principal hotel is pre¬
sided over by Mr. Ledbetter, who is
also county treasurer. Here you can
always get your county checks cashed
and a good dinner. The other hotel is
kept by Mrs. Galloway, wife of a former
sheriff of Baker connty who is now
dead. Two good churches, one a Union
and tl)e other ft Bapti8t churcb> wh|oh
has been recently built, and a nice Acad-
emy is in course of erection and will
soon be completed. We find they have
ft nice school there well attended, and
all tho citizens taking an interest in its
prosperity. While there we met Judge
I. A. Bush and Stenographer Davis>
auditors court being in session, over
which Judge Bush presided, and all
soon found in him the makeup of a
good judge. The sheriff. Mr. Odom,
is ever polite and ready to-accommrfdate
all who have any business in his line.
Baker libs reasons to bo proud ol her
sheriff, and the clerk, Laurence Rowell,
as all know him well will not say he is
an ugly man but will say if yon have any
business with the clerk of the superior
court of Baker county he can and will
show you what you waxit as he has ev¬
erything so arranged that there is little
trouble in finding what you want. We
did not meet Mr. Perry, the ordinary,
but wo did meet Mr. Perry, the county
judge. He has one of tho best records
of any judge in the State; over kind but
impartial. We have known him a long
time and he is always the same—a gen¬
tleman. But time and space forbids us
to mention all we met, but this we will
say, w o want to go to Newton again.

In The Atlantic Monthly Mr. Charles
Warren Stoddard, describing the ap¬
pearance of Brat Harta’s “The Luck of
Roaring Gamp," explains the story of
the woman who was opposed to its pub¬
lication. There have been many render¬
ings of this incident. Mr. Stoddard’s
version is unquestionably the correct
one.
In the August number of The Over¬
land ’Monthly (1808) appeared “The
Luok of Roaring Camp. ” If Mr. Unite
bad been in doubt us to his vocation be¬
fore, that doubt was now dispelled for¬
ever. Never was a more emphatic or
unquestionable literary success. That
success began in tho composing room,
■when a female oomposltor revolted at
the unaccustomed combination of men¬
tal force, virility and originality. No
doubt it was ali very sudden and unex¬
pected. It shook the editorial and com¬
posing rooms, the business offioe and a
limited number of worthy people who
had seen “The Luck” in manuscript ns
they had never been shaken save by the
notorious Californian earthquake. The
climax was precipitated when the justly
indignant editor, whose motives, liter¬
ary judgment and good taste had beeD
impeached, declared that "The Luck of
Roaring Gamp” should appear in tho
very next number of The Overland
Monthly or ho would resign his office.
Wisdom finally prevailed, the article
appeared, The Overland’s success was
assured, and its editor was famous.
