TIMES DARLING IS DEAD- From out of the crystal snow, A year ago, Thu angels made her ; And the sentinel stars of night; Gave his blue-eyed darling light; Then they pillaged the moou of her crown To fashion a pure white gown ; Aud they circled her waist amain With the wisp of a comet's train. From ont of the eastern gray Os a uew born day They took a strand ; And they bound the silver line ; With a ray of the sun’s decline; . And they wove them well in a loom, The threads of hope and of doom, Till they formed a beautiful car Made fast to a meteor star. Then down from the gates above A bit of love, Biie came to his hand ; But the crimson and silver were one, Aud his hopes but a mist in the aim. The clouds in their sorrow may weep, While the stars no more vigilance keep, As they search on planet and sphere For his darling, the dying year; But they wander and weary in vain, To restore the living again ; For under the crystal snow, A night ago, The angels laid her.

EIGHTEEN* lIUNDRID AND I EIGHTY-SEVEN- Eighteen hundred and eighty-six ■ is now ot the dead past, and for all | our short comings and imperfections 1 dining the twelve months just ended, ' we should earnestly endeavor to dur- I ing the year 1887 to make all the i amends possible. If by thought, word , or act, we have come short of our | duty, we can by pursuing the proper | course relieve ourselves of the sting, | and feel that for having lived the past : year, we can so live in the future and . profit very materially upon the ex- I perience accumulated during the past , year, and wi h all the lights before i us, the ujih and downs, the trials, I troubles and sorrows, together with al) the joys and happiness, be enabled Terms, $1 A Year In Advance I to strike a happy medium mid so live in the future as to have uo regrets at i the dying «f the old year Let ue I resolve to meet the many vimisitudes, that will necessarily obstruct our way, bravely and with a determination not to succumb, but on the other hand to meet every emergency and ride . triumphantly on to the successful eud ioi every aim and object. If we will I but do our duty, the Great I Am will smile upon our exertions and crown them with the fruits of a well spent year. Because we were unsuccessful last year in our various avocations, is n reason why we should renew and redouble our energies and exertions to regain the lost ground and be all the better prepared a year to come, to more successfully buttle with any misfortune that may overtake us.

A SAD SPECTACLE IN THK LOWELL OF THE SOUTH AS VIEWED BY A REPORTER OF THE MACON TELB ORAPH' Augusta, January 9.— A most sor rowful spectacle was witnessed this afternoon by your correspondent. la a low, dirtv hovel in the southern portion of the city, he, accompanied by Coroner Piquet, found an old ne gro man and woman and four chil dren. The man and wife wer o sitting in the centre of the room, hugging close to each other to keep warm, there not being a spark of fire or any wood in the house. On an old mat tress lying near was the body of a child, who had just died from expos ure to cold. On another, covered by a (uttered blanket, were three others, shiveridg with cold and seriously ill. All were entirely hopeless, and seem ed to be awaiting death to relieve their sufferings. They hud nothing to eat since yesterday, and were al most starving. A doctor was culled in, who pre scribed for the sick children, and wood and food were given them. The dead child was taken out and buried. This is the saddest case that hns ever been brought to the knowledge of the officiu s, ami if it had been re ported before, the family would have been provided for and tlrn suffering prevented.
