JUNE AniUME
Jane treads the glowing fttii
In mood 10 blithe and iwaet,
Even the intake* wind* that paaa
Drop bloisoma at her feet.
She etoope to set the strain
With scented alder bushes,
With the b:ue fl*g’a «»eam,
And haughty, waring rushes.
Of tender shining reins,
And noonday golds and shadows,
Ah, June, my lorcly lass—
Sweetheart, dint thou not see
1 stay ;o watch the |-asa ?—
Whet bast thou brougUt to me!
Thy gracious ministries
Of de icato warm skies,
Thy wild-roae sermons, sweet,
Like dream*, profound and IT ft,
Thy woodland harmony,
Thou givest me.
The risien that can aee,
The loving w 11 to learn
llow fair thy skies may be,
W hat in thy roses burn,
Thy secret harmonies—
Ah, gire me these!

THE
COLUMBUS ENQUIRER-SUN
Is the onl^r thoroughly independent paper South. It believes
we are to win; not by complaining about the past, but
working for the future. While it gives proper space and
notice to all political matters of State and National impor
tance, it aims to call the attention of emigrants and capital
ists to our great resources and to build up the South on a
basis that has for its foundation Industry and economy.
While disclaiming to be the organ of any creed, party or
society, all its tendencies will be in favor of TEMPER
ANCE, MORALITY and RELIGION. Being deeply
interested in the success of the farmers, and having implicit
faith in the grand destiny of the GRANGES, the EN
QUIRER-SUN will devote a large space, under a capable
editor, to AGRICULTURE, and in chronicling the move
ments of the Patrons of Husbandry.
THE DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN
ft
Will contain all the latest National,. State, Local and For
eign news, devoting much Bpace to Alabama interests. Its
editorial management will he fearless for right, and while
recording passing events it will not neglect the arts, sci
ences and the advancement in the world’s material progress.
THE WEEKLY ENQUIRER
Will give weekly a digest of all Foreign and National
nows. It will devote much Bpace to Southern intelligence
and will contain original articles on Agriculture, the Granges
and other matters that will be of incalculable benefit to the
planter and general reader.
