in ZENO. There lived a man between two bills, 'Hid snakes and
snipes and whip-poor-
wills, Down in a valley, hills all 'round. Who never went to
church or town. Was quite unlearned, was rough and
rode, Content to work for his clothes and food He made his bread
and raised his nie.i'. And what he raised the same he ale. He
bought no oil to give him light, But went to bed as soon as night.
And his it wasand Oh ! how blest To work, to cat. and then to
rest.
What need had he for science or art. While with their slaves so
tar apart? Why should he quit his blessed peace, On which, for
life, he held a lease? Or why. in Arctic region freeze, And loose
such comforts as were liis? Why should be make the task his own. To
count the stars, or weigh the moon? Who would not rather plough the
held. And eat the fruit which it will yield. Than try lo analyze
the sun? Which would not feed him, though
'twere done. The land was his, he payed no rents, And seldom
went beyondhb fence. But staged at home, and so much so His
neighbors culled bint 'Valley Joe.'" He ale, he rested and he wi
ought. Ami hail no cause to fear the gout. Oh! thrice blest Joe.
Fiecd from re-
grets: Nor lost by politics nor bet*. Of ad life gives, be had
the best, To work, lo eat, and then to rest.
But Valley Joe, like oilier man Grew tiled of toil, and then;
Von should not ask me '"why," just now. lie knew not, neither do I
know. But. as with Adam, so with loe, (For Ad.un's in us all.you
know.) The same that led our Mother. Kve, Her home In Paradise to
leave. The same i> is uiilo this day. \\ hich leads our simple
hearts astray. But Milton wrote of them you know," So I'll return
to Valley Joe.
lie knew that valley every spot ; And thought he knew what lie
did not. lie though! (bill all! how he mistook !) The rend lo glory
had no crook, lie thought again, but that was wrong. The sun was
shining all night long On lop the hill Hot no ;oh no, A ad mistake,
poor Valley Joe,
Thus Valley .loo wilh fervent will, Starts on a journey up the
hill, To vies; the world in which he lives And drink the sweets (?)
which knowl-
edge gives. Is often struck with change of scenes. And puzzled
how to cross ravines. From thing to thing his fauci-'s drifts. From
babling spring, to rocky cliffs ". Still o'er the rucks, and down
'.he steeps, lie climbs up here, then down he leaps. Still pressing
on wilh earliest tread To gain the hill-top high o'er head : Until,
with weary feet mid eyes. He stops and looks in great surprise :
Half admiration, half in fright, lie sees the bill-lop clothed ill
white, Twas something new to Valley Joe, To see this mountain
capped with snow.
However much he found to please, lie found himself about to
freeze, woull have returned : lit ah 1 p.ior Joel lie diil no! know
which traj to go. At last he said. "Leteomi iiac will,'' "Mj
motto-hall be f.irht. k'.Ql,'' For who turns back is sure!*, lost.
And ere night comes I may have crossed This icy peak, and reach the
plain." With this resolve lie starts again, He presses on and soon
has past, The rugged place is scaled at but. Then to Hit" village
straight he goes, To sup. and give his limbs repOSO.
Some disapointinenls still in store For Valley Joe. but these he
bore. They all in one would not compare With climbing up that
winding stair He ne'er became a man of fame To stately honors made
no claim. An honest man. well worthy trust, Whovlewd false
pride]with much disgust Who did ;t tiling because 'twas right. To
jounger ineii, a noble light.
The last we heard of Valley Joe. He lived and was at well to do,
And often told his story sad l'o some pool simple minded lad, "And
when I caiue to die," says he, I waul my friends, who e'er they
lx-." To place thetc words above my head'' That those who pass that
wav may read "Oh ! man, remember thou art blessed If Hutu canst

By section 1950 of the Code of North Carolina j: is provided
that every railroad corporation shall make an annual report to the
Gov- ernor of the State of the operations of the year, ending on
the 30th of September, which certificate shall be verified by Ihe
oaths of the treas urcr or president and superintendent I and shall
slate the amount of capi-j tal as by charter, the amount ol stock
subscribed, the total amount 1 of stock paid in, the amount of
fended debt, the amount of floating debt, cost of road and
equipment, full statement of business of the j year, earnings,
expenses, etc.
It is also provided by section 1900 Ol the Code that any
corporation j Any Business Entrusted to us wlT which shall neglect
to make the report as provided shall be liable to a penally of
9500, to be sued for in the name of the. State.
It is alleged in the complaint that the railroads sued have
failed to comply with the said section of the Code. Under the law
this penalty of 9500 belongs to the first man J , M0ORE who
institutes suit lor it.
Mr. W. T. I lodge, who brings ac- tion in the case is a citizen
of Wake county and a member .of tho Far- mer's Alliance. In
pursuance of the section above referred to Mr. (lodge has
instituted suits agaiust the forty roads below named for the
penalty of y.'iOW iu each suit. It is suited that with the

September 80th, 1880. With some unimportant amendments made from
time to time the statute has bceu in force ever since 1871.
It seems that the statute has been completely lost sight of for
several years. It was never re- ferred to during the agitation of
the railroad commission bill during the recent legislature.

Alas! Poor Hog.
The hog is an unfortunate fac-
tor in the welfare of Greenville,
and lias, unfortunately, been the cause of some unkind
feeling
among their owners in the com-
munity. That his presence up-
on the streets of Greenville is a nuisance was long ago
establish-
ed beyond contradiction, and in
order to expunge the same the
guardians of the peace and fram-
ers of the statutes did. a few
years past, declare against his
privileges of the lows at large,
and ordained that he should ei-
ther be kept in by his owner or
be run in by the police, with cer-
tain lines and penalties attached

Cancer. is a I'm in of Mood poison which is not nii'U'i-stood by
tlio moilical pro- fession as to its real nature ami character, but
it in evidently hered- itary in ils nature, lt may acci- deutly
develop it-ull without any predisposition or evidence of such
existing poison. The knife or caus- tic salves, have heretofore

fatal results. Thousauds of cases of epithelioma (skin) cancers,
aud a great many ca- ses of scirrhus cancers, have been cnliiely
cured by the use of Swift:s Specific, lt forces the. poison out
through tho cancer itself, and the iwres of the skin.
My father had cancer; my hus- band had cancer, in fact died with
it. In 1875 n lnmp cHine on mv nose, which steadily increased in I

ap- plications, aud finally tried to burn it out, and more angry,
until I de- termined to try Swift's Specific. I took the medicine,
and it soon made n complete cure. I know that a 8. 8, cured me,
because I discarded all other remedies. This was several years ago,
and I have bad no sign of a return of the cancer.
