TALLAHASSEE.
[Bt. Paouio Roller.] . Oh the mule,'bells tinkle down the citronscsnted "air, And tho niggers call across tho blue lagpon. The flowers of Florida are'exquisite and rare In tho languid breezes of the noon. ' < Oh sunbeams throb in Tallahassee,^ And tho roads are white with heat,' But my heart's to-night in Tallahassee, Where the 6pn'ng and tho Bummor meet. Deep tho midnight shadows in the high-walled gardens hido, <,' . " ' And the,lattice seems'to gleam liio fretted gold, - For moonlight is a perfume where th* scented creepers,glide, , , When the passion flower and rose unfold. Oh eyes flash bright in Tallahassee, Like stars in the velvet night,And love is lovo in Tallahassee, -■ And hearts yield a.hearfe delight ~ •Tallahassee is the capital of Florida, .the earden of too States.
