DAILY EVENING STAR.
THE FIRE Is CUT.

BY PAUL PENCIL, JR.
hear their tread, dim, gtostly dim,
The dark night spirits roam about;
The slow clock sings its midnight hysan.
lis bitter cold, the fire Is cut.
And now the joys before me move
In Earth's wild battle put 10 rout,
Where fade the forms we prize and love
And one BY one hfe's fires 90 out.
Man has hut one deep love of Youth
One trembling love of hope and doubt
No answering love rewards his ruth
The he art is chilled, the fire goes out.
AT morn TO battle for the right
Goes forth ripe manEuod strong and stout
Alas that day must close in night
Men change to clods. the fire goes out.
Fill high the glass, The hour scarce past
With ioudest song and deepest bout
An cold gray morning dawns at last,
The headache comes, the fire goes out.
Up. up! for Fame, for Honor's state.
Wen carry Gtoty's high redouht-
Ills int the miliiunth man is great
The rest. poor souls, their fire goes out
Poor child man, in thv constant strife,
Nhy ever fret and tease and pnui3
Thoh canst not Wicid the toys OF life,
Go! sleep! Go-die thy fire Is out.
The last spark flies. and leaves the soul
That grave with ashes :irrWn aLuut:
Cold "rair. with many i dark dead coal
Emblem nj Life. lit. fire is out.

THE DAILY DISPATCH
Thursday Morning. May IL, 1883.

FLoRlpA.-This State is waking up on the
subject of Railroads. A Railroad has been
chartered by Georgia and Florida from Savan-
nah TO Pensacola. Florida had previously
chartered tn, Florida Railroad Company TO
construct a Railroad across the Peninsula,
from some point on the Gulf to proper point
on the Atlantic. To the Savannah and Pen
sacola scheme, Savannah has subscribed near
ly million of dollars, and the efforts in its
favor have been very successful. The friends
of the Florida Peninsula Road regard the Sa-
vannah scheme as hostile to theirs, and are op'
posing it with great zeal. A considerable e1'
citement, therefore, prevails in the Flowery
State. This condition Of the public mind there
| will no doubt do good, as it will give strong
impulse to the cause of Improvements and has
ten the completion of at least one OF the
| roads.
