TuE PosrAGE Blu IN.ruE SENATE
Mr. Rusk, OF Texas, chairman of the Post
Office Committee in the Senate has reported
the House Bill with amendments These a
mendmcnts fix the rates of prepaid let
tiers at three cents for half ounce letters
and cents for half ounce letters not
prepaid Postmasters' compensation not to
exceed the amount Of their salary for the year
ending june 80, 1881. The provisions ex-
empting newspapers from postage to 30 miles,
aud a reduction of 90 per cent postage on
magazines, to be stricken out. 1t is quito
probable that these propositions will defeat
the Bit tins scssioni-that, If adopted by the
Senate they so change the Bill as to make it
an easy matter for the enemies of cheap pos
ngo ia the House to defeat il there. The
Texas Senator is afraid of cheap postage
afraid, that If adopted, the Department will
not be able to interlacr the wild-rhgians OF

THE FARMERS DAUGHTER.
,he NAV not in the may dance,

She NAV not in the may dance,
With jewelled maidens vie;
She may not smile on cOurtly swains
With soft and bewitching eye;
She cannot boast form and mien
That lavish wealth has bought her;
But ah! she has much fairer charms
The farmers peerless daughter!
The rose and lily on her cheek
Together love to dwell;
Her laughing blue eyes wreathe around
The heart witching spell;
Her smile Is bright as morning glow
Upon the dewy plain;
And list'ning to her voice we dream
That Spring has come again.
The timid fawn is not more wild,
Nor yet more gay and free;
The lilys cup is not more pure
In all its purity.
OF all the wild flowers in the woods,
Or by the crystal water,
There's none more pure or fair than she,
The farmers peerless daughter
The naughty belle, whom all adore,
On downy pillow lies
While forth upon the dewy lawn
The merry maiden hies;
And with the lark's uprising song,
Her own clear voice is heard
Ye may not tell which sweetest sings,
The maiden or the bird.
Then tell me not of the jewelled fair
The brightest jewel yet
Is the true heart where virtue dwells
And innocence is set
The glow of health upon her cheek
The grace no rule hath taught her
The fairest wreath that beauty twines
Is for the farmers daughter.

OF all the melancholy sights, bachelors
home is the most so. A house without woman
is like world without sky, or sky without

exception of the lady who "milked the cow with

forlorn and melancholy.

Good men should be attentive to their health,

To prevent horses being teased by flies, take
two or three handfuls of walnut leaves, upon
which pour two or three quarts of cold water
let it infuse one night; and pour the whole next
morning into covered kettle, and let it boil fif-

No more is required than to moisten sponge,
and before the horse goes out Of the stable, let
those parts which are most irritable be smeared
over with the liquor, namely, between and upon
the ears, the neck, the flank, &c.

and apply with such force to parents, that we

"lf you would keep pure the heart of your

surround him with objects of interest and beau

spirit Of idolatry," the love money!" and teach
him to love what is lovely, adorn your dwell

your streets and public squares, with trees and
hedges, and lawns and flowers, so that his heart
may early and ever be impressed with love to
him who made them all.
