Summer, f; ghtened. far hath flown
Der the suany South to play;
Winter mounts his chrystal throne
lis Creations holiday
Weary Earth IS gone 10 sleep,
Meath a sparkling coverlid,
All her beaSties buried deep,
All her presious seeds are hid;
All the laughing streams are dumb
Which, Hke,children on her knees,
PrattIad to the wild bees hum,
To the flowers, and birds, and trees;
Trees that n5w like sceptres stand,
All their twinkling leaves. are gone,
Like terror-stricken band,
Huddlad round the messy stone.
Myriad needle points of frost
DriIt along the tuneless air;
All the Wild wood notes are lost
Save the sno.y birds chirping there
Natures week of toll is done,
Silent now sic kneels to pray,
Waiting till :he kindling sun,
Ends Creations Sabbath day!
Graves, like those who sleep below,
Now are shrcuded all in white,
Rounded finely with the snow.
Cold and sileat, day and night;
From ny widow | can see
Little foot prints, leading where
Half by me-half by despair;
Shadowless but not forgot,
There the sleeping sister lies.
Every one has some dear spot
Which they see thro' misty eyes,
Visiting where, unreceived,
They must stand beside the door,
Then return. again bereayed,
Again 10 mourn, as heretofore.
II 1or every shout of mirth
Stricken hearts somewhere are pining-=
Sure for every, grave on earth
Far above a s.ar Is shining
Saying, grief must pass away,
All things have their holidayn
Arti-t-La %omuambula-
Frost-is doing curious things,
Making ere the break Of day
Such fantastic pencillings
Over all the w.ndow-panes
Yet the tracery quickly wanes
In the dwellings, Of the proud
But where fortune frowning falls,
In the huts of poverty,
With their poorly chinked walls
It is slow TO melt away.
In the novels OF the poor,
Where around the sleeper 5 head
The breath Is frozen, crusting o.er
The zoaaty draIery of his bed.
Nothing save the hope OT splius,
Which these playful pictures bring,
Keeps his heart from perishing.
Secl a spirit in the wind
Whit ming the boards of men,
Leaving limpiug time behind
With his three score years and ten;
Care and canker toll and tears,
Time require to turn US grey;
Frost can crowd 50 many years
All into a winter day.
Mimic Of the tine TO come,
Mimic Of the past away,
Idle mimicry to come
Who find in life TO holiday

Of yellow fever-DOCTOR BARI OW
BALDWIN,, aged 81 years.
Dr.. Baldwin, was born in New Haven,
Conn, where he received his Academic and
Collegiate Education While a student Of Yale
College, he united with the church in his ma
tive city, and, after mature deliberalion, chose

two years from that time, in 1889 and 40,
he was student Of Theology in tie Seminary
at Princeton, New Jersey: but toward the
close Of the second term Of study, his heath
failed, and he was advised by his physician
aud friends 70 seek warmer, aud more con
genial climate
He was licensed 70 preach the Gospel, By
Che Presbytey Of New York, and, coming to
Mississippi. be was, for six months, the stated
supply Of the Presbyterian Church on Pine
Ridge, near Natchez. Here biz labors were
jealous, and accepsable. His health. however
greatly declined, and long continued feeble
ness ofyoice led him, reluctantly, 10 abandon
the idea Of preaching. IN his estimation, the
next broad field Of honor anl usefulness was
the Medical profession. In 1874 he gradual
ed at the Medical College, in New Orleans,
aud in the following year, located in this
county. TO bis profession. he devoted bis
best energies, and the constantly widening
circle of his practice, attested the worth of his
public services. His presence in the sick
chamber was wont to inspire confidence. and
the natural cheerfulness Of bis own spirit often
begot its like in the mind Of the suffering
patient In, not few instances, he ministered

ished at this disruption; and all the survivors
remained on the poop, with the exception Of
seven men, who had secured themselves on the
topgalent foreastle The poop fortunately
foated well, drifted inwards by the wind and
each heave of the sea, when it finally grounded
about 4 o'clock 4. NJ. The forecastle, with
the seven men, came ashore much about the
same time
The wreck had been observed from the Is
land almost as soon as the day had broke and
IN the tirst instance seven or eight of the Bar
ra men came down to render such assistance
and aid as might be in their power. The re-
mans of the mizenmast were still attached by
the shrouds to the wreck of the poop, and by
the help of the Islanders it was placed so as
to form a sort of bridge or ladder between the
poop and the shallow water; as the tide had.
now fully ebbed, all the survivors got on the
shore without much difficulty by in the
morning. When mustered the survivors
were found to number 4 total of l02, ofwhom
one was a child, II were women, and Is be-
onging to the crew, exclusive of the captain,
who was also saved. When the poop was
drifting ashore he secured himself upon its
skylight But the departed friends of the
survivors were ashore before them for the
beach,was literally lined by their dead friends
bodies, rs well as by inUmerable fragments Of
the broken ship, and the light part of her car

of life at less than $50, and consider it close
apon 400 souls. The latter would be the
case if 500 individuals, including children,
"Ni0 Vm uVaitl, as Is sss..e'''iiJ- L-G-".l Al
most all the cabin passengers persisted, mclud-
ing Captain Monro, of Quebec.
Such as were saved remained by until the
tide ebbed, when they waded ashore, the wa
ter taking them nearly to the ampits. At
daylight the bay was strewn with dead bodies
to the number ofnearly 800, greatly disfgured
many of them without limbs and heads, and
nearly all naked, thereby showing how instant
must have been treir death, and the fearful
strength Of the waters whish in so short
time made such havoc.

Cool lMpuDENCE.-There is gentleman
residing in Western New York, whom, in de
fault of his real name, we will call Colonel
lie has one son, Ned rather a graceless youth
full of the wild pranks in which students gen
orally excel. Being at home during vacation
he corresponded regularly with his chum, who
by agreement was to keep him posted up
in regard to every thing that transpired with
him worthy of note OF course he was very
careful to keep all his precious epistoIs from
the eve Of the Colonel, and as Ned was "Col-
onel Jr," it became necessary to watch the
mail arrivals closely as his clum wasn't very
particular in adding that distinguished feature
to his name
One day he rode round to the Post office
as usual, and fund to his dismay that Joe,
the groom had taken the letter and left for
home. lie started at a gallop, but was unable
to make up the time, for Joe arrived ahead.
Hoping that nothing very bad would come of
it, he marched in to dinner as cavalierly as
possible. One glance at the ColoneIs face
revealed to him that he was in for it.
The substantials been disposed Of as usual
the lady mother left the room, and left Ned
and the Colonel slipping their wine. Leisurey
pulling the letter out of his pocket, the Colo
mel passed it to Ned, and asked him what he
thought of it. Ned quietly perused it its con
tents being an account of his chums doings,
both lawful and unlawful, and ended by urg-
ing him to come to him without delay. Ned
finished it in silence, and handling it back to
his father, said
