NHere is Willis contribution to
Sunset, and literary curiosity it is
We have never met with more perfect
description of Indian Summer glory;
while its WalisisHas intensity it into a
beautiful poem.
"Sunrise-but what a scene ont of my
window! Has our "fast world" whip
ped up and oYertaken a sunset; or, has
a sunset oversight itself and been sur
prised among its blushing blankets by a
frost shoe? Really, what l see is al
most unnaturally beautiful. Idlewild
glen looks like 'rosy West" through
which one may walk like a garden. To
the sickening to-morrow-ishness of life
hopes but little out of reach, birds that
will not quite wait to have the salt put
upon their tails, and glowing sunsets
always Just over an horizon, twenty or
thirty miles farther out-there seems,
at last, to be an exception. Here are
the crimson and gold, the scarlet and
purple of sunset-clOse to-touchable-
pluckable-and in no hurry to fade away
-tree-clouds of every color in the rain
bow, and of boundless prodigality OF
beauty, slumbering immovably around
us. Who will come and be astonished?
We are somebody's horizon, Of course,
as somebody is ours. Storm-King
mountain is the West, from somewhere,
and Idlewild ION its other side, is just
over the border-line betwixt land and
sky-the alusive Summer. think, if
they (whose West we are, would but
step this way, and look over the hori-
zon, now, they would think we had con-
trived to detain dying day. or twol
Come, my dear General, you, who at
Undercliff, are the other epaulette of
West Point, and the two of you being
my next neighbors East-come and see
us with your military eyesl The glen
will look to you like an encampment Of
sunsets on a halt. And then take one
look, as a poet, and sigh over such a
reaped wilderness of to-days showing
brightest when passing into to-mor--
rows"

CHLoRoFoRMING BEEs.-A statement
has recently been very extensively eircu-
lated that chloroform had been found by
Mr.. Smith, of Edinburg, to be most
admirable means of putting bees to sleep
for a short time, during which as much
honey could be removed as was desired.
A writer in the Boston Cultivator has
tried chloroform according to Mr..
Smiths plan, and found not only that
the bees were soon put to sleep, 6ut
they hare been soundly sleeping ever
since.

IMPORTANT TO MAN.-Why is it that
the rainbow and cloud come over US
with beauty that is not of earth, and
then pass away and leave US to muse on
their faded loveliness? Why is it that
the stars, which hold their festival
around their midnight throne, are set
above the grasp of limited faculties,
forever mocking us with approachable
glory? And why is it that bright
forms of human beauty are presented to
our view and take from us, leaving the
thousand streams of affection TO flow
back in Alpine torrents upon our heart?
We are born for higher destiny than
that on earth. There is a realm where
the rainbow never fades, where the stars
will set out before us like islands that
slumber on the ocean, and where the
beautiful being that now passes before
us like the meteor, will stay in our
presence eforever.-Prentice.

RWhen 1 gaze into the stars, they
look down upon me with pity, from
their serene and silent places, like eyes
glistening with tears over the little lot Of
man. Thousands of generations, all as
noisy as our own, have been swallowed
up by time, and there remains no record
of them any more. Yet Arcturus and
Orion, Sirius and Pleiades, are still
shining in their courses, clear and
young as when the shepherd first noted
them in the plains of Shimar.-Cdrlyle

that took 'the other side" on the Squil-
gee question.
APhOrIsm- from Punch.
The men who hatter them do not
known them sufficiently, and the men
who only abuse them do not know them
at all.
Romances generally end with a mar
riage. And many young girls, when
they leave school would wish to go
through the romance of life-as they
do most romances-by beginning at the
end.
Woman should rule but not govern.
If you wish to learn the worst fault
of woman, praise her highly to her
friends.
Woman is a most beautiful book, that
too frequently is condemned for its
errata.
You can generally tell how popular
you are with lady, by the length of
time she keeps you waiting whilst dres-
sing to receive you.
A fan is a most handy little instru-
ment for those who have lost the art of
blushing.
Vows are the bad money-the
10 US and posto-obits with which a
man pays a woman the depths of his
heart.
If young lady has purse with two
ends-silver in one end and gold in the
other-she is sure to open the gold end
first.
The only time when women talk
much amongst one another, is when
they are waiting for the gentlemen after
dinner.
The eyes of pretty woman are the
interpreters of the language of her
heart. They translate what her tongue
has great difficulty in expressing.
If you wish to close a lady's lips ask
her her age.
But few women keep a dairy after
their first love.
Tell me how many lady's maids
lady has bad, and l will tell you her
temper.
A man who has loved madly will
laugh at his madness as soon as he has
got cured of it; but a woman never
laughs upon such subject. With her
love is madness Of which she never
sees the folly.
l don't know which is the worst, a
man who marries for money, or a
woman who plays cards.
The signal for conversation amongst
women, is when pretty girl begins to
sing.
Women will forgive everything in a
man except his being bore-every-
thing in woman except her being pret-
ty.
Female forgiveness, illimitable as it
appears, has, however, its limits. A
woman will forgive an angry word, or
a sneer, or a shrug of the shoulders, or
a slight elevation of the nose, or a
scratch-she may even be brought to
forgive her being prettier; but, to her
dying day, she will never forgive her
wearing diamonds when she has none
herself.
To paint angles, painters have bor-
rowed the likeness of women, to paint
devils the likeness of man.
Scruples are like sand bags in bal
loon. He who throws them all over
board rise with ease, but is likely to
come down with a jounce.
Wisdom to prevent emergencies is as
desirable as ability to meet them.

The Merchant
Tare and tret,
Gross and net,
Box and hogshead, dry and wet,
Ready made,
Of every grade,
Wholesale, retail, will you trade?
Goods for sale,
Roll or bale,
Ell or quarter, yard or nail;
Every dye,
Will you buy?
None can sell as cheap as 1!
Thus each day,
Wears away,
And his hair is turning gray!
O'er his books
He nightly looks,
Counts his gains and bolts his locks.
By and by
He will die
But the ledger book on high
Shall unfold
How he sold,
How he got his precious goldl

E The skull of Voltaire has been
recently exhumed and examined; and it
is proved, not only that his head was
small, but that he had the organ Of
senerdtion developed to very extraor-
dinary degree. This must have
prompted him to reverence superior
beings, and most of all the Deity
Those who knew anything of Voltaire
viii judge whether this is a Just de-
scription of his character.

NA man has been bound over for
rial at Boston, for defrauding the COM

who falsely pretends to be lawyer had
his deserts, the jails ofthe country would

A COSTLY MAN.-Bonaparte, by his
wars, was the means, as it is estimated,
of ofdestroying a million of lives. Proba-
bly, his wars cost billion of dollars.
Keeping him prisoner on the island Of
Helena cost the British Government a
million of pounds sterling. He died
and was buried and in 1910 his remains
were taken to France, at cost of one
million of dollars.

A SONG OF THE EAGLES.
By RICHARD sroRRs WILLIS.

7 By RICHARD sToRRs WILLIS.
Austria spreads her double eagle
Darkly over Smyrna's wave;
Austria, freeman-robberi-
Swears a freeman to enslave.
Cowardly her minions creeping,
Steal patriot soul from shore;
Hungary's son meath Turkish rampant
Live in fetters, free no morel
Suddenly th' ayenging angel,
On cloud of dazzling white,
Sweeps from off the crested pillows,
Spreads his fag of starry light.
Fierce before him flies an eagle;
Freedoms ownI too long forgot!-
Where that eagle plants his talons,
Tyrants and their chains are not!
Now the double eagle covers,
Meath the fercer eaglet's eye;
One bold birds enough for freemen,
Two can ne'er help Tyrannyl
Double eagles, double cannon,
Naught can bear the spoil away;
INGR'HAM stands with blazing matches
Humbled Austria yields the prey!
Hail Columbia!-and though ever
Far may rash aggression dwell,
When the cause and right are ours,
Strike for freedom!-make it tell
Prove to Europe's feeble despots,
Hard can fall the hand that's freel
And the man that claims our banner,
Must and shall protected be!
The flag of Austria shows a black, two

HEIRsHIP OF BALANCE Due BY THE
UNITED STATEs.-Not long since de-
cisiOn was made by the Treasury De-
partment, involving a question which is
of interest to the public. A soldier,
seventeen days before his death, made
what his legatee terms verbal will
The legatee who was neither an heir
otherwise nor creditor, took out let
ters of administration and demanded the
balance due the soldier from the Gov
ernment. The Department refuses to

such circumstances, averring that it does
not acknowledge the binding force Of
nuncupative (Or verbal) wills upon its
Office.

couple, " says the Gazette des Tribunaux,
''after living together on bad terms for
some time, resolved, a few days ago, to
separate. They sold off all their furni-
ture, but, finding that the sum it realized
was not very important, they proposed
to commit suicide; and they went to the
Canal st. Martin, TO execute the design.
The husband leaped in first. but after
while, being capital swimmer. he
raised his head above water, and per-
ceived his wife standing quietly on the
bank, watching him. He began abu-
sing her, and said that, according to
their conventions, she ought to drown
herself. He called upon her to plunge
in at once, without any more talk; but
she refused. Thereupon, he got out of
the water, and gave her tremendous
thrashing. Some persons, who came
up, went to seek for the guard, and the
loving pair were arrested. On being
questioned, they made the facts known"
