, which was dehverde in Cherokee on
• last Tuesday, to less thaujone hundred
t people— the Constatutions glowing
, report to the contrary, uses this lan
guage;
“In his efforts tu excuse Gen.Ev
nans from the report that he contrib
utes SI,OOO to defeat another Demo
crat Mr Ccnb utterly failed. The as
sertivn that the General has paid less
than SSO is weak aud does not ap -
proach a denial. The J Advance and
other papers has bad nothing to say
about what the General has paid. Not
a word. We merely said that he sub
scribed SI,OOO, That’s all, aud we
are not advised that the General has
ever yet denied it,—and Orator Cobb
does not either.
The mere assertion that Gen Ev
ans has not paid SI,OOO to the cam
paign fund docsnot satisfy the peo
dle.lt makes lio diflereni e who paid
the money no man wifi deny that Gen.
Evans subscribed it. It has been
• S uggested that if Gen. Evans did nut
pay it other members of the family

if this is true so muc'i the worse for
the General. ”
SWEETHEART ROBIN.
before the 80.-laty April kith 94.
Th se old fiailiar fields were bloominglie,
Thtdr welcome to my wandering wearied eye
The sweet lipped flowers fling a fragrant noil
To greet me as I cross the well worn sod.
Here with the first song of the meadow lark,
A child I use to roam, and happy mark
The rising of the sun and greet with lusty cry
The plow boy as he lazily passed by.
Not then to me the sun, the sign
Os days and years e're which to pine
For wasted strength- for hopes beyond my
■ ace,
And womanhood wearied with a fruitless
chase.
Here is th c urehyard where we stood.
Mute children, as the grave received Its food,
And wandered at the tears strong manhoon
shed
■When loved ones filled the casket of the dead.
How near the stream of wisdom then we stood
How farther wandered as we grew to woman
hood.
The datkness falling on the hallowed ground,
Embraces each beloved, remembered mound
And hides those others which tne rising sun
Will call my eyes to scatter tears upon.
What playmate sleeps beneath me even here,
As sinking on some mortals verdent bier,
I fall to dieamingover things that have
Been loved, and loving still, with tears I lave.
What staunch true, girlish friend lies sleep
ing here
Aud feels my heart throb and recleves my
tear?
What sturdy lad has grown to manhoods
years
And dying gained no tribute but the tears
That friendship dropped upon his grave?
What sunny maiden—bashful as he gave
To her the first sweet, rose orchard fruit
Has here disarmed the jealousy of suits
And yeilded to the grave the sweet embrace
That honest manhood envied for its grace?
Oh I Memory I how sharp doth pierce thy sting.
And yet what joy its fiercest pang doth bring:
The wasted hours of youth and pleasures vile
Have joy aud sorrow in their dim profile.
What happiness d< th well up In ths heart
At all the sports in which we took a part
What sharp remorse that youth has failed to
bend
To burdens early and its self defend,
By leaving rarely, lightened to the end.
And with the knowledge of our cares does
come
A holy sympathy for all who from
Our chidhoods hills have trod ths well wort
earth
And love is sweeter for in sorrow than iu
mirth.
Tis late e’re virtue do our joys enhance.
How proper to the age the careless glance
That childhood throws along the flowered
way,
When gladdened by the colors fresh display.
He hurries on, nor seeks to win the flower
Whose s mple beauty would delight the hour.
And yet when from the wildered walks we rest
And find that nature buoyei by no guest.
Has yeilded up its strength upon a waste!
How sweet the memory of the way does taste !
And then bow sharp the sorrow that no bud
Was plucked to give to weariness its sweat
eat mood,
Ah I let me sleep, and as a child, forget
My wayward walk, or give me hope that yet
I may retrace the way and from the field
Lay on my breast the flower that shall yeild
My souls its sweetest fragrance, or forge t
kind heaven.
My lifes sad fault, aud let me fall forgive -
Into tha) sleep which I *st o’ertakos and fli ds
That naught but death can raise ths tortured
mind.
MOBIN.
Sweethert! Flower of my soul! love give me
hope
That all is not too late, but in the scope
That merry yields to guilt I may regain
Tne path that leads to thee
Thus crying to the night, nntil the morn
I lay unhappy 'neath a blooming them
That marked a grave, An<!*then as forth, the
sun
Crept, welcoming me my ealy hounts upon
I turned my burntng eyes upon the stone
That marked the pillow of his head alone.
My heart stood still and tears refused
To flow from eyes that e’en their God accused
I read the simple line, which o'er my fate
I felt engraven as the worns - Too late

THE SKY PILOT IN POLITICS
Since this campaign opened, it
has been the policy of the Evans
papers, on all occasions, to inten
tionally slander Mr. Atkinson.
Timo and again he has been
charged with assailing Gen. Evans
because he was a minister of the
gospel and a Christian gentlemen
Now suppose we draw a paralel,
each side of which we quote from
an Evans paper ; And if an Atxin
sen paper e?er used such lan
guage as one of them contains;

Macon News. Rome Tribune.
Rev. W. M. Bridges is a minis
ter and a county official, Rev. D.
B. Hamilton is a minster and a
member of the State Democratic
Executive Committee. Each has
a citizens right and these is yet to
be found an Atksnson paper, that
would stoop to style either of them
or the Rev. Clement A. Evans a
“Sky Pilot.’’
As ‘o the charges that Mr. Brid
ges is supporting Mr. Atkinson be
cause he wants to be a State
School Commissioner, the Atkin*
son papers, if they would stoop
to the same plain, could charge
rhat “Sky Pilot” Hamilton was
for * Sky Pilot” Evans because he
wanted to be City Court Judge.—
1 here would be as much truth in
the one as the other. The Atkinson
papers and people would scorn to
resort to such methods to fight the
Iriends and supporters of any
demoerrt. Stop it!
Gen. Evans seems to be greatly
bewilded over the idea of the
judges and solicitor’s being for
Col. Atkinson. It? not the courts
that’s troubling the Gen., but the
verdict of the jury which meets ol
the ord of Aug., and will read
“thusly:” we. the jury find the Gen,
guilty of not having Jvotes enough
to secure him the nomination.
