ANOTHER "GINEvRA. Almost every
body has listened with sadness to the
plaintive strains and saddening words of
the old song, The Missletoe Bough,"
in which the story is told of young
bride, who, in playful humor, OH her we'd
ding day, ran to hide from her spouse, and
was found years afterward, mouldered to
ashes in chest with spring lock. 1t
is sorrowful, romantic tale, and has
often brought tears TO the eyes of romantic
lovers. A sadder tale, however, and one
which adds to its own horror by it's reali-
ty, has been developed In this city. A
few days since We called attention to an
advertisement of the loss of little Spanish
girl, answering to the name of Ventura.
whose agonized mother was searching
throughout the city for her.
After locking for her in vain for several
days. and coming to the conclusion that
the child was dead, she went to large
trunk in her house on Thursday, for the
purpose of procuring some mourning
apparel, when, upon opening it, what was
the mothers horror to see lying there the
decaying remnant Of her once beautiful
little child. The trunk had been left open
on the day the child was lost, and it is
supposed that the inquisitive little one.
having seen the dresses inside, had taken
fancy to them, and upon attempting to
procure them, had fallen into the trunk.
The lid closed with spring. and the
little child died with sufocation. The
tales of romance fall far short in depicting
the agony which the poor mother felt
upon this sad discovery-and the whole
story is one which tends 10 prove the Oft
repeated saying that truth is stranger
than fiction. San. Frm. Alta Calf.

CUR COUNTRY.

In 1892, the corner-stnoe Of our present
Capitol at Washington was laid. At
that time Gen. Washington. in whose
honor the new seat of government was
named, officiated. Fifty years after-
wards, viz: on the 4th of July, 1851
the cornerstone of an extension Of the
buildings was laid, and the Secretary Of
State made an address, in the course of
which be presented sketch of the COM
parative condition Of our country at the
two periods:
Then we had fifteen States, now we
have thirty-ohe.
Then our population was three mil
lions, now it is twenty-threc millions.
Then Boston had eighteen thousand
people, now it has one hundred and thir-
ty-six thousand.
Philadelphia had forty-two Thousand.
now it has four hundred and nine thou
sand.
New York had thirty thousand, now it
has five hundred thousand.
Then our imports were thirty-one mil
lions, now they are one hundred and
sevcnty-eight millions.
The area of our territory was then eight
hundred thousand square miles. 1t is
now three hundred million three hundred
thousand. s
Then We had no railroad, now we have
three thousand five hundred miles of it.
Then we had two hundred post-offices.
now We have twenty-one thousand.
Our revenue from postage then was
one hundred thousand dollars, now it is
five millions.
These are only a few facts going to
show the rapid growth of our country :
and what we and our children have to
do to secure the continuance of its pros
perity, is to love, fear and obey the God
of our fathers to avoid intemperance.
pride, contention, and greediness of gain.
and cherish in all our hearts a true
patriotism, and just sense of obligation
to those that shall come after us.

Let not the Sun 60 down upon your Wrath

HOT th6 oun 20 down upon your Wrat
By MARY IRVING.
The sun is almost down
The shadows flicker higher
Up the old pines, whose torch-ikc tops
Are flashing Days last fire.
Oh ere their light goes out
Ere on mat crimson cloud
The first dim fold of darkness falls
From twilight's deePenihg shroyd--
Come, lay my hand in thine;
Look TO yon gate of heaven,
Glowing in purity and peace,
And say, "7hou Crt fen gircn. :"
'.Let not the sun go down.
Oh, friend upon thy soul,
Swallowed by even doubt, 10 mar
Thy angels record scroll
Thou aast too little known
The love thou cotiS'd fnTgpt
Even for moment; can the chill
Cling to the spirit yet?
Life is not long enough
For hours of dark distrust
Enough OF wO will come unsought,
Ere "dust return to dust -
"Peace-peace on earth''-was sung
O'er Bcthehem's hills of light;
Surely, the loving angels bring
Its echo back tonight.
Enough! no need of words
| feel am forgiven.
One tear has caught rainbow frrm
The last quick ray Of heaven.
