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 work, and eat,and rest."

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 exception of 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.

Spier Whitaker, Esq., and Anuis- stead Jones are Mr. Hodge's attor- neys.

Mr. Whitaker stated yesterday evening that the railroads could notj .. .7 7.,, J3 be sued lor failure to comply Wt-IJf, **ls ' cept tor one year as the statute of limitations prevents going back lin- 'her.

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

hardship upon the citizens of the

town to have the streets and

their premises damaged by the

hogs. The hogs should not have

been allowed on the streets, bill

the country people might have

been relieved from paying so

much cost on their stock-

As said further back, the hogs

have had possession ot the town

The knife or caus- tic salves, have heretofore been the so-called remedies lor it, but all honest practitioners will tell you that this treatment tails to cure, ami only hastens 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 size, and alarmed mo. I used vari- ous roiuediessalves and other 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.
