Under the pines—the sweet memories come Of the dreams and the joys of a dear South ern home. j ^ here the faces I knew in the dim lone neo Have vanished like waves on the swift river’s flow. Under the pines I still hear the sonar Of the thrush and the wood-hammer float ing along; But the voices that blended by night and by day Like the echoes of woodlands have lone died away. Under the pines the soft mnsie I hoar In the branches above, like the sea in mv ear; •So the songs may he hushed in the home steads below. While far in yon heaven the sweet harmo nics flow. Under the pines that like sentinels stand To gliard the dear homes of the bright Southern land. The flowers of Spring their soft fragranee exhale On each sunny highland, from each pleas ant dale.

On Wednesday evening, in accord ance with the announcement in Tues day’s Recorder, a highly intelligent audience assembled at the court house to hear an address front Col. Jas. H. Rice, State Superintendent of Educa tion. At a little after eight o’clock the speaker was introduced by Hon. James Aldrich in a few well chosen remarks, when Col. Rice proceeded in fluent style to entertain his hearers with an address, which lasted about one hour aud a half. At first the audience was small, hut before the speak cm - had gone very far a consider able number of persons came wilo the bull, swelling the audience to very respectable proport ions. Colonel Rice seems to be enthused with his work and made several im portant suggestions. He particularly impressed upon the audience the im portance of the great common school work of the State. He thought the system good, but in order to make its usefulness felt it was necessary that it should be well conducted in all its parts. He dwelt upon the important functions of County School Commis sioners, and urged the ci’izens to see that none but good men held the office. He urged the importance of having competent men for school trus tees, and touched upon various other important points, which were all lis tened to with respectful attention. The address was well received by a highly intelligent audience. Colonel Rice left the next day for Charleston. Annual meetinii of tin* Aiken Bible Society.

I will give your many readers the symptoms and ask them to give us their best treatment, for our hogs ai.e still dying. The symptoms at first are purging, next loss of all appetite, and then in a day or two a cough sets in. and then stertorous breathing, and theji rapid loss of flesh, and then death. Now will some one tell us what it is and treatment that will cure? Two of the main cogwheels in the mill broke last week and the mill was stopped over a day, but all right now.
