A PIPES FOIl THE PEOPLE,
DonM Stop My Paper.
Don't flop my paper, printer,
Don't strike my Mote off vet,
Yon know the times ntr stringent,
And dollars lmnl to get;
But lug n little harder,
la what I mean to do.
And f enijK' the dimes together.
Enough for me nml you.
I can't afford to drop It;
I find It doesn't pay
To do without n paper.
However others may;
I hate to ask my neighbors
To give me theirs on loan;
They don't just say It. hut menu It,
Why don't you have your own?
You enn't tell how wo miss it,
If It, by fate,
Should happen not to reach us.
Or eotnes n little late, .
Then all In In a hubbub,
And then things go awry.
And, printer, If you’re married,
You know the rettson why.
I cannot do without it.
It is no use to try,
For other people use it,
And, printer, so must I.
I, too, mult keep me pouted.
And know what's going on.
Or feel and bo accounted
A fogy simpleton.
Then, take it kindly, printer,
If pay Ikj somewhat slow,
For cash is not so plenty,
Anri wants no few, you know;
But I must have my paper,
Cost wlmt it may to trie,
I'd rather dock my sugar,
Atul do without my ten.
So, printer, don’t you stop it,
UnloM you want my frown,
For hero's a year’s sutweription,
And credit it rigid down,
And ward the paper promptly
And regularly on,
Aud lot it bring us weekly
Its welcome pension.

[Darien Gazette.]
After looking carefully over the
field we have come to the conclusion
that the Democratic party of the
First district could not; do a more
graceful act than to nominate Col.
W. T. Thompson, the able editor of
the Hava ninth News, for tho unox*
pired term of tho lato Hon. Julian
llurtridgc. Tho oluotion of Col.
Thompson would bo a juHt recogni
tion of his sorvioos as a Demoo ratio
oditor, and a fitting tribute to pay
him in tho olosing yoais of a life de
voted to the advoouey of tho rights
of our people. There is n a man in
tho district, nay, tho whole state,
tiiat has done more solid, hart! work
for tho Domoomoy than Col. Win.
T. Thompson, (Major Jones), of
Savannah, The timo 1ms now arriv
ed for tho pooplo of tho district to
honqr him, and wo oarnostly hope
that tho Domooraoy will nominate
him by acclamation as the successor,
in the present Congress, of (ho la
mented liar! ridge. Tho 0 mot to is
for him, and wo hope to sea all tho
pa|K>rs iu tho district on tiie same
lino. It is but doing justice to u
noblo man.

Tho corn crop tif tho United States
constitutes a wide basis of pros-
jiority. The,amount of corn exported
in the season of 1808-60 was 7,017,
000 bushels, aud the following year
but 1,392,000 bushels. The export
for 1877-78 will probably riso above.
85,401,000 bushels. In that timo tho
total of wheat aud corn export has
swollen from 39,759,00 to 177,595,
000 bushels. Tho average of this
•’"nr iq corn reaches 60,369,000, and
tho yield protmmy mm. u.,...
1,5000,000,000 bushels.

“No sir!” was the euipliatio reply,
“Why won’t you?”
“Because 1 don't know you,” re
plied the oitixen.
“Well, you wouldn't let me have
it if you did, so hand it out,” was
tho cool reply.
