What He Sees and Hears While

"How fleet is a glance of tbe
mind compared with the speed of
its flight," says the poet. And

may be lulled in tha chambers of
the heart, but
can never fade
from memory,
Tha Rambler in his rounds yes
terday afternoon, saw young
couples returning from tne coun
try, driving, and their vehicles
were ladened with dogwood blos
soms and yellow jassemine, and
instantly, on the winds that blow,
at last, from the South, the
Rambler was wafted back to the
Springtime of his own youth
time; and, slowly wending our
way among the real, we listened
to the lutes of memory playing
the "unheard melodies" of the
"land of the leal."
And the winds the blessed
winds from the South, my be
loved, they whisper a story
they tell softly a tale infinitely ?
sWeet and tender and odorous of
perfume of the long ago that no
language can interpret; the old,
old story that has been told over
and over again for a hundred
thousand years, and will be told
with infinite tenderness so long
as the heart of man realizes aud
beats in unison with the highest
attribute of God love.
The dogwood blossoms the
honeysuckle, the jassemine, the
bay, the magnolia, the happy
whistle of the mating partridge
and the glad song of tbe nesting
birds,all sweet and gracious things
in this life are borne to us on tbe
winds that blow from tbe South:
here the flowers bloom earliest, the
Diras sing sweets ana in gayesi
plumage, the bees wheel their
droning flight?, the eternal arch of
blue spans the South with a rad
lance tnat does not mm, tne stars
are brighter, the sun swings in
vast space with a nobler lustre,
and love born of bouthern hearts
is more lasting, more true, more
noble in its great qualities of sac
rifice and immolation.
but better still to be a dweller
here in Goldsboro, the best
town in the Statp,
"Where smiling Spring her earliest
visits pay.
And 'parting Summer's
blooms delay."
Selah.

The Rambler is informed that
it has been rumored over in Frog
Pond that a bill Is going to be
introduced in the next Legisla
ture to annex it to Goldsboro,
and zhe .frog .fond citizens are
greatly stirred up over the re
port, and a mass meeting has
been called for next Saturday
night to give expression to their
opposition to such a bill.
It is certain that the meeting

a responsive chord in
many hearts of Argus readers,
jua"ging from the number of ap-
proving letters we have received j
this week.
But the Rambler would not
confine his admonition to chil
dren alone to be good, but he
would extend it to grown-up peo
ple, as well; of all conditions, of
all ages, of whatever short-coming,
be such one or many.
Within the volition of every
human being is the power to be
good. While life lasts there is
open to eyery one the way, bright
shining and glorious with eter
nal love and mercy and right
eousness. To whatever deeps of
wretchedness
men or women
be iaiien, tne gate to tne way
stands wide open for those who
will to enter.
It does not matter what the
error, or shame, or sin, there is
hope for the lowest fallen, in
spiration for all who will see
and hearken and act. In the
gloom of wickedness truth may
appear, and lo! there is light.
The sinful, low-lying in noxious
vapfors, may rise and go out in
to the pure light of the sun, tbe
inspiriting atmosphere of the
real heaven, gaze upon the glory
that beats around the heights of
faith. Yea! all who seek can
reach beatitude.
The poorer offender, the wretch
edest of all the wretched, will be
uplifted if they but accept the
plan and ask for the dispensation.

THE DOCTOK'S DREAM.
Last evening I was talking
With a doctor, aged and gray,
Who told me a dream he had,
I think 'twas Christmas day.
While snoozing' in his office,
The vision came to view,
And he saw an angel enter,
Dressed in garments white and
new.
Said the angel, "I'm from heaven,
The Lord just sent me down,
To bring you up to glory,
And put on your golden crown.
"You've been a friend to everyone,
And worked hard night and day,
You have doctored many thousands,
And from few received your pay
4 So we want you up to glory,
For you have labored hard,
And the good Lord is preparing
Your eternal, just reward.
Then the angel and the doctor
Started up toward glory's gate,
But when passing close to hades,
The angel murmured, "Wait.
"I have a place to show you;
It's the hottest place in hell,
Where the ones who never paid you
In torment always dwell."
And behold, the doctor saw there
His old patients by the score,
And grabbing up a chair and fan,
He wished for nothing more:
But was bound to sit and watch
them,
As they'd sizzle,fsinge and burn,
And his eyes would rest on debtors
Whichever way they'd turn.
Said the angel, "Come on doctor.
There's the pearly gates I see:"
But the doctor only murmured,
"This is heaven enough for me."
He refused to go on further,
But preferred to sit and gaze
At that crowd of rank old deadheads
As they lay in the blaze.
But just then the doctor's office
clock
Cuckood the hour of sev6n ,
And he awoke to find himself
' In neither hell nor heaven.

"A day like this makes me
long for the fields and the woods
for the blossoms' of the wild
flowers and the songs of the wild
birds," delared a beautiful wo
man to the Rambler yesterday.
'Woods, fields, birds and flow
ers make me to rejoice, to love,
to love every thing and kiss my
hand to tbe sky and tbe sun and
to wnatever eisel like."
The birth of tbe newmroi last
week was of unsurpassable br auty
and spUn lor. The mot n hung a
silver creact-nt invi-rted against a
grey-blue sky, and it went its
westward way in great glory, the
evening star haDging above it in
glorious radiance. Tb.3 scene was
one never surpassed in the upper
deep. There was no cloud. The
crescent of the silver moon was
suspended there in the vast depths
of the firmament, and the star far
above, seemed to be the rear
guard in the splendid march of
the heavens! It all of it was won
drous splendid! It was the death t
a&
of a day of glory, of richness,
beauty, light and worship.
The going down of the new
moon and the evening star were
sublime. A more glorious night
never veiled the earth, The stars
seemed to sing a song of match
less music in the vast cathedral of
space. The man who had no soul
to see the beauty of yesternight
is not worthy to know the greater
glory!
The big advance and tbe up
ward trend of the price of cotton
is setting tbe farmers of these
parts cottonward with their plant
ing to a degree that is truly alarm
ing. The Rambler has been taking
observations personally, and re-

ceiving information by mail and
this is his deliberate judgment.
We are in receipt of a letter
from a neighboring county to the
effect that a large crop of cotton
will be planted this year in that
section, and that if a crow flies
across that portion of the country
the coming spring he will wish;
that he had carried his rations, if
he expects to depend on spring
corn for his food.
It can hardly be so bad as that.
We can dispense with the crow
and the thrasher and the lark,
but we trust that this indigenous
grain crop will have a show. The
horses and the mules, the cattle
and the pigs and the poultry
raise tneir hungry mouths in sup
plication. It is opportune yet for a few
more acres in corn. There was a
time in North Carolina when a
crow was seriously inconven
ienced about his rations when he
journeyed across the State, but
that belonged to another genera
tion another era. There need be
no occasion for it now.
