Aw Expressive Poem.
We clip the following expressive po¬
em from the Augusta Chronicle and
publish it by special request. It was
composed by Judge H. H. Perry, of
Waynesboro, for the benefit of a young
man who bad been lifted up to the
third heaven of bliss by a fair lady and
dropped.
THE RECKLESS MAX.
Oh! the ways of the world are many,
And most are busy with cafe;
While one may be joyous and happy,
Hundreds are shaking with fear
There’s.grief for the.breast of the mon¬
arch,
A-wolf to frighten each lamb
Ob, I’m for the few that are reckless,
For the man that don’t care a d—n.
Some shout for the dog that is upmost,
t’ew prayTor the dog that is down,
Some bow to the smile that com¬
mands ’em,
Some to the threatening frown,
But I hate the man who would wear it
The boson that’s only a sham ;
Howisplendid.and happy and glorious
Is the man that don’t care a d—n.
The heart that is loving is anxious,
Love endeth at last in diapair,
And the hope that hath paradise in it
Is only a mist in the air.
My soul is as light as the ether,
My heart weighs only a drachm;
Oh love, if you love me, 1’tl love you,
If you don’t, I don’t care a d — n.
8eelbecomes who is watchwom and
weary >
Let's whistle and lot' him go by,
He comes who smiling but dreary,
Tbat smile is simply a lie—
Shut the door on the day that is rainy
And let it'go to with a slam,
Bring wine and open to no one
fiut tbe.man who don’t care a d—n.

conn
Editor* Few*:
I have been thinking (or some time
that I would write * letter to the
Ksw», but there bu been inch a stir
here, up until no#, that a fellow could
not get bia brain to stand still long
eaough to write a letter.
You are not here long before you
find out that legislation is very slow
work, and alao that the old members
ha'-e a great advantage over the new
members. They know the roptt and
they do not fail to pull them. To
illustrate, they introduce moat of the
local bills, and every day seme of them
will get up and ask the unanimous
consent to have bill No. 120 token up
aud read the Second or third lime.
In this way a large number of these
bills are passed while bill No. 2, or 3,
the first introduced, are not acted
upon. So, up to thi3 time, a very lew
general bills have passed. But a good
many are learni ng the ropes and it
will not be ->o in future.
I am satisfied that a majority of
the members desire a short session and
will do all they can to bring in about
But there are several good general
bills introduced that should pass. The
question is, shall we pass them, or
shall wo adjourn, haring done but lit¬
tle, except to pas3 iocal bills? I will
state also that some of these local bills
require nearly two hours to have them
read and they have to be read three
times.
The biggett thing before this legis¬
lature is education. Several bills have
been offered and it is the desire of the
committee on education to take the
best parts from each bill and form on*
good bill and try to pass it. It is my
opinion that this legislature will give
the people five or six mouths free
school.
Another good bill is to make the
seed cotton law general. Many coun
ties have local laws, but we of Lincoln
county know that this does not work
well, because the cotton is carried to
other counties and sold. This does
not protect the farmers as it should,
and it also does an injustice to our
county merchants. North Georgia is
opposed to the bill ind some had to
beg a good deal to get it through the
committee room, but I think it can be
passed.
There are a Dnumber of other good
bills not acted upon as yet. The tax
and appropriation bills were just
brought in this morning. The fi¬
nance committee, I suppose, could
not dc any better. It will requirs sev
eral days to get through with these
bills. Several large appropriations are
asked for, but it is my opinion that
some of them will fail to get- the sum
asked for. I know they will not get it
by my vote.
The committee on lunatic asylum
have attended to their work. This is
one of the grandest institutions in the
state. \\ e went through every depart¬
ment and will never forget the trip.
There is over 1600 there for treatment
aud a large number of them will never
be cured. It takes 900 pounds of beef,
300 pounds of bacon, over four barrels
of flour, 10 bushels of meal, 100 gal¬
lons milk daily, besides potatoes and
other things they raise a good deal of
what they consume. I counted 60
potatoe hills. They have over 200
head of hogs 65 of wuich are ready to
kill.
I understand that Senator Gordon
will join the alliance tomorrow. It
will take place in room 2i, Capital
building. Yours truly,
J. R. Hoorn.
