Blighted hopes and fond hearts crushed, A mortal's voice forever hushed. A blooming youth has passed away, Afl nncu tlm frntfilo nf M-tv ? , y - - And soon the grave will close upon A parent's hope?a well loved son. Yes, dcntli lins snatched, with ruthless liand, A well known form from oufrour hand, And borne him from the shore of time, To dwell in nn eternal clime. Thus mortals swiftly pass awnv; For man is born hut to decay, And soon the messenger will come, To bear us to our final home. Then let us live that so we may, "When death shall summon v* away. Leave this vain world without a sijdi. And soar to mansions in tho sky. (J. W. It. Orrenvillr, S. C.

"What was it?" 1 asked. "Why, he called at the house to buy cheese, but when he came to look at the lot, he concluded he did'nt want 'em they were so full of skippers.'? fto he made an excuse, and was going away, when the farmer said to him? "Look here, mister, how can 1 get my cheese down to Boston the cheapest ?" The gentleman looked at the stuff a moment and saw the squirming, and said. "Well, I don't know ; let.
