THE T ARBORO' SOUTI1E RNER. T ARBORO', SATURDAY, May 26, 18G6 We Shall meet but shall Miss Slim." we AS SUSQ BY THE LADIES OF NEWBERJC. We shall meet but we shall miss him,' There will be one vacant form; One that oft to glory led us Through the deadly battle storm. 'Tis'but three short years we number, Since our hearts were beating high, But, alas! in ceaseless sumbcr All our hopes with Jackson lie. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one dreary void; For the hopes we fondly cherished, Are for evermore destroyed. At our firesides, sad and lonely, . Often will the bosom swell As we listen to the story How our noble chieftain fell How he bravely bore our banner, Through the fiercest of the fight, To uphold our Southern honor, In the cause of Truth and Right! "We shall meet, but we shall miss him, We shall for our loved one weep, As we bend in silent sorrow, O'er the grave where Stonewall sleeps. True, they tell us wreathes of glory Evermore wilt deck his brow; But this soothes the anguish only, Sweeping o'er our heart strings now, And though Fame, in future nges, May enshrine him where he fell, No surcease our heart assuages, For his fall became our knell, We shall meet, but we shall miss him, Ever miss our fallen brave; While we grieve in mournful silence, O'er the cause he died to save. Will o'tiie Wisp. First Bali. A True Picture. hy the Rev. Mr. . J. W C, to C. E. G., only daughter, &c. "No cards." We did'nt say do babyl I have one of those interesting little animals at home. It came when it rained like the devil, dark as pitch, and my umbrella at the store, no car running. The doc tor lived five miles due west, and the nurse six miles due east; and when I got home to the bosom of my family, the condensed milk man was at the next door. Its a funny little chap, that ba by, ftolfenno color, and the length of a bologna sausage. Cross? I guess not. Um, um; it commenced chasing me down the pathway of life just when muslin, lin;n, and white flanuel wfro the highest they had been since Adam built a hen house for Mrs. Eve's chick ens. The "docters charge two dollars a squint, four dollars a grunt, and on account of the scarcity of rain in the country, take what, is left in a man's pocket, no discount for cash, and send bill for balance, January 1st. A queer little thing is that baby; a ppeck of a nose like a wart; head as f bald as a squash, and no place to hitch j WE have now in store and arc constant a waterfall; a mouth just suited to come iy receiving new additions to our now the gum game and chew milk. Oh,; lread leteBtockof 111? i VI cracKee, you simuia near ner sing, i nave bumped it, stuffed my fur cap down its throat, given it the smoothing iron to play with but that little red lump, that looks as if it couldn't hold blood enough to keep a roosquitto from fainting, per sists in yelling like thunder. It shows a great desire to swallow its fists, and the other day they dropped down its throat, and all that prevented their go ing clean through was the crook in its elbows. It ftopped- its music, and I was happy for one and a half minutes. Its a pleasant thing to have a baby in the house one of your belly-ache kiud. Think of the pleasures of a father in dishabille, trembling in the midnight hour, with his warm fact upon a square yard of cold oil cloth, dropping parago ric in a tea spoon by moonlight, the nurse thumping on the door, wife of your bosom shoutiog hurry, and the ba by yelling till the fresco drops from the ceiling. It's a rjice time to think of dress-coats, pants, ties and white kinds. Shades of departed cocktails, what a picture for an article in plaster paris. I have to get up in the cold and shiv er while the milk warms; it uses the bottle. I have a cradle with the repre sentation of a miraculous soothing Fyrup bottle on the dash board. I tried to stop its breath the other night, it was no go; I rocked it so hard it missed stays, and sent it slap clear across the room, tiDsetting a iar of preserves. It did'nt make any noise, then! On, no, us mother says only wait till it gets bleach ed, (it's being vaccinated,) and old enough to crawl about and feed on pins. Yes, I am going to wait Won't it be delightful. John, run for the doctor, sis has fell in the slop pail and is chok ing with a potato skin; sis has fell down Etair; ais has swallowed the tack ham mer; shows signs of the mumps, croup, whooping cough, small-pox, colic, dys entery, cholera infantum, or some other daru thing to let the doctor take the money laid by for my winter's corn beef, and all this comes of my sham pooning and curling my hair, wearing nice clothes, and looking handsome, go ing a courting and making uy wife fall iu love and marry me.
