SAMUEL WADDINGTON.
"_".
If thou wert true as thou art fair,
Love should for thee thy burden ~bear;
| No service would his heart disdain,
Or deem it idle or in vain:
But fare thee well! too fair art thou ;
So fare thee well forever now.
It thou wert mine and mine alone,
Then shouldst thou reign upou loyeTs
throne ;
But other bats may thine caress,
And other lips those lips may press,
So fure thee well! Unfair art thou"
Go! fare thee well forever now.
If thou a goddess wert, divine,
Should all men worship at thy shrine ?
Nay, prithee think !"is there not one
Who from thine alter would pass on,
Crying, oFare thee well! Mere fairy
thou"
Nay, fare thee well forever now ?
Yet tell me, thou, my own, my queen,
Art true as thou art ever been"
And I thy servant still shall be ;
Not doubting, sing this song to thee
QO! oPare thee well�"but Fair art
thou.�
And oWith me fare fever now.�

To Put a Stop to Lynching.
Hon. Frank Johnston, Attorney-
General of the State of Misissippi, will,
it is announced, recommended in his
LU official report to the Legislature special
legislation against lynching.
Among other suggestions will be pre-
visions as follows :
1, That the county where lynching
occurs shall be held in damages in an
action by the children or heirs of the
victim of the mob, to be brought in
any adjoining county, iu a sum to be
fixed by law, not less than $10,000.
2. That the officers of the law
charged with the custody of the prison-
ers shall, with the sureties on their
bonds, be held liable in damages for
neglect of duty in protecting cme
wards against lynchers. .
3, That a constitutional amendment
shall be adopted making it a qualifica-
tion for voters in all public elections
that, before being allowed to register,
each elector shall~be required to make
affidavit that he has not since the adop-
tion of the amendment been engaged,
either directly, or indirectly, in any
such violence,
