AN OVERsROwS BUsIyRss-It is stated
that the business Of the Messrs. Harper i:
now SO extended as to be, like that Of the
Messrs. Lawrence (prior to the death of Abbot
LaWreneel in Massachusetts,, quite unmanage-
able In fact, the Harpers have now so large
catalogue of stereotype plates, that the pos
nblllty of affOrding a new book, the attention
which any of the younger houses can give il
Is lmpracticable. They do not advertise or
otherwise push them and the much Wanted
facilities In connection with their magazine
have proved in every instance Of this kind
altogether delusive An expectation of copy
right at the hands of the Harpers, Just now,
when the trade is combined against them, and
their resources absorbed in the manufacture
OF an already enormous catalogue and in their
periodical, Is one of the most futile aspirations
OF hope We could enumerate a little crowd
Of their late publications, upon which their
authors and 4 half I dozen of our younger
houses would have achieved fortunes, had not
the manuscripts been burked in Cliff street,
and made into books for tail to the Harper
Monthly Kite. Harper books reach q wide
market when they bring with them an Eng.
lish celebrity, such as Macauly, but an origi-
nal publication like Life in Brazil" will
barely reach the Harper agencies and a very
limited immediate sale.

FOUND DEAD.
BY ALDRRr LLIeHMAN


Found dsad-dead and alone,
There was nobody near, NOBODY near
When the Outcast died on his pillow of stone
No mother, no brother, no sister dear
Not friendly voice to soothe or cheer
Not q watching eye or plying tear
FOUND dead-dsad and alone
In 'ns roonsss street, on pillow Of stone.
Many weary d4y went by,
nile wretched and worn he begged for bread
Tired Of life. and longing to lie
peacefully with the silent csad
munger and cold, and scorn and pain,
Had wasted bis form and scared his brain,
Till at last q bed Of frozen ground,
With pillow Of stone, was the Outcast found.
Found d ad-dead and alone
On a pill .ow Of stone in the roofess street
Nobody heard nj, last faint moan,
Or anew when his ht art had ceased to beat
No mourner fingered with tears or signs,
But the stars LOOKED down with pitying eyes
And the chill winds passed with a wafling sound
O'er the lonely spot whfre his for n was found
Found dead-yet not alone;
There was somebody near-somebody near
TO claim the warderef as his own
And mad a home for the homeless here
One when every hum IN door
10 closed to his children scorned and moor
VINO opens the Heavenly portal wide;
An God was near when the Outcast died.
