Mike Nralroney's Ride.

Mike Mahoney was an Irishinen, ev-
cry whit; but then he was shrewd
rishman, and obtained more money and
cold yictuals by his wit than by labor.
La fact Mike was determined to make
this country what he had been told il
was before he came over the "waiher,"
place where a man could sslive aisy."
II happeaed one day ;ha. Mike, who
had s'rsyed up into the country, was
anxious to reach railroad ienn,. His
legs were weary, and though he had
partaken of a substantial breakfast from
the well spread table of hospitable far
mer, the idea OF travelling sixteen miles
before nghfall had little charms for a la
zy fellow like him.
Mike travelled about a half mile,
when lie observed large handbill post
ed on the sign-post, and though not much
of q scholar, he managed after spelling
the hard words 10 read as follows:
"Stoien.-A man calling himself Will
liam McClafllin hired of the subscriber a
gray horse, and Concord built wagon,
Tor the purpose Of going to Kingston
and return the same day, but has no,

THE NORTH EASTERN BOUNDARY QUESTION,
WAR PREVENTED.
In 1889, arose the North Easter
Boundary difficulty. The disputed ter
ritory was abou, TO become the battle.
ground between the troops of Maine anil
New Brunswick. War was considered
inevitable. In this crisis, Gen. Scott
was again deputed by the Government
to calm the rising storm. His able SER
vices on that occasion showed him to be
possessed of the highest talents as
statesman and diplomatiss. war con.
sidered inevitable was preven,ed-the
honor Of the conutry prcserved-and
Scott returned with fresh laurels upon
his brow, and 'sihe hero of Lundy's
Lane" was hailed on all sides as the
"Great Pacifcator." Fl
THE MEXICAN wAR-MAaca FROM VERA
cLUz TO THE CAPITAL OF THE NON
.. a TEZUMAS.
The services of Gen. Scott in the Mex
lean war of so recent date, are so fresh
in the recolleclions of the American peo-
pie and the whole civilized world, ,hati,
is useless to do more than make a pass
aIlusion.
Ga the 10Th of March, 1917, General
Scott arrived before Vera Cruz. On the
l4th of September, lS47, he planted tbs
stars and stripes over the National Pal-
ace in the city of Mexico. Within these
six months San JuanD' Ul!oa--the Amer
lean Gibraltar-was stormed, and the
battles Of Cerro Gordo, Con,retras, San
Antonio, Churubusco, Molino del Rey
and Chapul,epec, were fought and won.
With less than 10000 fighting men, he
attacked and routed, again and again, 30.-
600 of the best troops of Mexico, pos.ed
behind the strongest Notifications. and
fighting with the courage of desperation.
Nothing of military achievement record
ed in ancient or modern history, can ex-
Gel the glory of tha. march from Vera
Cruz to the city of Mexico!
Such is brief sketch OF one whose
life has been devoted to the service and
glory Of his country, and whose patriot
ism is enlarged enough to extend to the
whole country. Born southern man
reared and educated among southerners.
he has fought and bled alike for tho
north and south; and to suppose that he
could be willing to do injustice to either,
would be to declare the last 40 years OF
his life but lin!

wAYSHDE DREAMS.
BY BAYARD TAYLOR.

A warm and drowsy sweetness
Is stealing DER my brain;
l see no more the Danube
Sweep through the royal plain;
/ hear no more the peasant girls
Singing amid the grain.
Soft, silvery wings, moment
Seem resting on my brow:
Again | hear the water,
But its voice is deeper now,
But the mocking birds and oriols
Are singing on the bough.
The elm and linden branches
Droop dark and close DER head,
And the foaming forest brooklet
Leaps down its rocky bed,
BE still, my heart! the seas are passed
The paths of home tread!
The showers Of creamy blossoms
Are on the linded spray,
And down the clover meadow
They heap the scented hay; ......
And glad winds toss the forest leaves
All the bright summer-day.
Old playmates! bid me welcoms
Amid your brother band;
Give me the old Affection
The glowing grasp of hand! .
worship no more the realms of old
HERE, in my Fatherlani! ...
