The Song of the Rain.

Lo the long, slender spears, how they quiver ard fas
Where the clouds send their calvary down;
Rank and file by the million the rain -lances dash
Over mountain and river and town;
Thick the attledrops fi but they drip in blood
The trophy Of war is the green fresh bud;
Oh, the rain, the plentiful rain!
The pa lures lie baked, and the furrow Is bare,
The wells they yawn empty and dry;
But a rushing Of waters Is heard in the air,
And rainbow leaps out in the sky;
Hark! the heavy drops peng the sycamore leaves
How they wash the wide pavement, and sweep from tn
Oh, the n, the plentiful rain! leaves.
See the weaver throws wide his swinging pane,
The kind drops dance it on The floor.
And his wife brings the owerpots drink the sweet rain
TN the step by her half open door;
At the tune the skylight, far over his head,
Smiles their crippled lad on his hospital bed;
Oh, the rain, the plentiful rain!
And away far from men, where high mountains tower,
The little green moses rejoice,
And the bud headed heather mods to the shower,
And the hill torrents lift up their voice;
And the pools in the holows mimic the fight
or the ran theii thousand points dart up In light
Oh, the rain, the plentiful ra n!
And deep in the fir wood below near the plain,
single rush pipes full and sweet,
How days Of clear shining will come after in,
Waving adows and thick growing wheat;
SO the voice Of Hope SINGS the heart Of fears,
OF the harvest that springs from great naons ears
oh, the ram, the plentiful rain

1t is said" that mixture of half an ounce
of pulyerized sapetre and half pint of sweet oil
is a certain cure for the inaammatory rheumatism.
The mixture must be applied externally to the part
affected and gentleman who has witnessed its
application in number of instances says that it
will infalliby effect cure, and that right speedily.
Inasmuch as it can do no harm and will cost but
little, we advise those who are afflicted with the
gouts first cousin to try it, and not to be disap-
pointed if fails, ether because gentleman with
whom we are tolerably well acquainted, and of
whose opinion We think good deal, too, after
having been through the rheumatic alphabet from
A to ampersand, has no confidence in any of your
infallible " remedies. He says that what will
afford relief in one case will have no effect in
another-Springfeld Republican.

tY Not long since youthful friend Of our acci-
dentaly swallowed a lead bullet. His friends were
very naturally much alarmed, and his father, that
no means might be spared to save his darling
boys life, sent post-haste to surgeon OF skill,
directing his messenger to tell him the circum-
stances, and urge his coming without delay.
The doctor was found, heard the dismal tale,
and with as much unconcern as he would manifest
in case of common headache, sat down and
wrote the following laconic note:
Sir: Don't alarm yourself If after three
weeks the bullet is not removed, give the boy a
charge Of powder Yours, etc.
p. S--Don't aim the boy at anybody"

A PERTINENT QuEsr1oN.-Judge B. shut up
keep them in confinement till they agreed upon a
verdict. Fortunately the wife of one of the jurors
got sick, and he was sent for and released, which
broke up the jury just as they were the point of
seizing the constable on the outside of the jury
room and putting him in their place. One of the
jurors, indignant at the confinement asks how
would the members of the bench like to be shut
up from Saturday noon till Monday morning in the
court house, during the month of July, unless they
agreed upon law question? This is pertinent
question, and the suggestion might be tried upon
the Court the first time that it is unable to agree
