To watch its frolic play;

That decked the carpet DER,
And seemed, with childish wonder,
Each object to explore.
A something on the instant
Its glad career arrests,
And earnestly it gazes where
A golden sunbeam rests
While on the new found glory
1t fixed its wondering eyes,
And truthfully reached forth its hand,
To seize the glittering prize.
And now its tiny fingers clasp
The treasure rich and rare,
Which in its baby innocence ".a

But at j.! that hand uncloses, ...
And to its earnest gaze
Reveals no gem of beauty W
No bright imprisoned rays!
And then the first of many tears eu
Fell on the chernb face
The first sad disappointment
In ife's uncertain race '-
And thus it has been with us all,
Who its dark game have played
We've sought to grasp the sunshine,
And only found the shade.

SHOCKING TRAGEDY IN SYLvAN1A, OHIo.-44 ITIo-
man Murdered and Her Body Burned-The Toledo
(O) Commercial of the 18th ult. gives the particu-
lars of one of the most shocking murders we ever
read of-and the enormity Of the deed is aggravated
by the evidence that the perpetrator the husband
of the deceased. 1t appears that Mrs Ward disap-
peared from Sylvania short time since, in a very
mysterious manner, her husband reporting that she
had left him for California His manner was such,
however to suspicion, and the citizens of the
town instituted thorough search Of the premises,
which resulted in discovering the horrible fact that
the woman had been most foully murdered, and that
her body had been burnt in her own house! In pile
of ashes near the house human bones were found-an
upper jaw almost entire, and pieces of the skull Two
finger rings were found, which were recognized as
those worn by Mrs. Ward. The citizens who made
the search found abundant evidence they thought
that the effects of Mrs Ward had been all burnt. The
lock of her trunk pieces Of DRESS hooks and eyes and
other articles were found. The citizens searched far
ther. The bed clothes had the appearance of having
been recently washed. On opening the bolster and
bed the feathers were found covered with blood
Blood was also found on mat in the upper part oi
the house. minute search revealed traces Of blood
in other parts of the house.
Whether the woman had been stabbed or shot they
could not tell but that she had been touly murdered
and her corpse burnt they were satisfied, and at
proceeded to cause the second arrest Of Ward. He
arrested and committed to Jail in Toledo to await
trial before the next term Of the Court of Common
Pleas for murder in the first degree.

FROM kASsAs-The facts of the recent disturb
ance in Kansas are substantially thus: a,
The Kansas Legislature appointed man from
Virginia, named Sherrod, sheriff of one of the coun-
ties, and Gov. Geary refused to confirm him, the
ground that he was desperate and man of bad
character generally. Sherrod afterwards insulted the
Governor publicly and the latter not resenting it, his
friends held an indignation meeting. sherrod and
others undertook to break up the meetngshot three
men, not fatally; then Mr.. JONES' Gov. Gearys Secre
tary, shot Sherrod through the head, killing him
| instantly.

GEN. FELIX HossroN-We greatly regret to an
nounce the decease of the distinguished gentleman
whose name heads this paragraph. Wepresume that
extended notice will be prepared by friendly
pen and shall take pleasure in transferring it to
columns. Gen. Houston distinguished himself in the
Texan service and received from the Congress of that
State, in 1887, the rank Of Brigadier General He
was an enthusiastic, warm-hearted man. His friend
ships were of the warmest character-and to his foes
he practiced no deceit His illness was lingering
one. Last fall we met him, almost the shadow of bis
former SELF but his bright eye and expressive features
still bespoke the soul that existed within that wasted,
though apparently still vigorous FORM
The funeral services celebrated at his late resi-
dence near Washington, (where he ded,) by the Rt.
Rev. Bishop Green of the diocese of Mississippi.
funeral salute of thirteen guns Uhe appropriate
number due to the rank of the deceased) were fired,
at o'clock Sunday, from the bluff in this city.
Gen. Houston, we learn in the 57th year Of his
age. [Natchez Courier, Sd inst.
The foregoing melancholy announcement will be
read with emotions of profound regret by thousands
of friends and acquaintance Gen. Houston was a
noble-souled, high.hearted, chiyalrc man. Heaven
receive his soul. ...r nv

GOLD FROM New MExICo.-The st. Louis Repub-
lcan, noticing a specimen of gold embedded in
quartz brought from New Mexico, says
1t obtained at the foot of the mountains thirty
miles south of Santa Fe, the road to Albuquerque
in region where copper abounds, but gold has been
undiscovered before The exploration there has net
been sufficiently extensive and careful to justify any
expression Of opinion as to the quantity Of gold en-
riching that region. Little doubt, however, is enter
tanned that mining would be profitable.

INSURANCE DEMONSTRATION an article il
the New York Times We extract the follnwinr.

the New York Times we extract the following:
One man builds vessel for his own use, and puts
into her the best materials both of timber and asten-
ing and plenty Of it, and she costs him say $40 per
ton His neighbor builds vessel to SELL paying lit
tie regard to the quality of the material the amount
makes them look equally well; both come to New
York for freight, apply for insurance, and the in
ferior vessel is charged for insurance than
the other. They are both new, but-they were built
in Maine.
1t is well known that there are some master build
ers in Maine who never build an inferior vessel, who
never known to put bad stick of timber in one
to spare the fastening and yet their vessels stand
better chance than the shabby affairs that are set
up by the mile and cut off to order.

stubborn, it is true, but not much so the mule,
and it is easily and quickly corrected It's patient
that it will proceed with its load until totally exhaust
ed, and then it falls again to rise. During a
military expedition of the French in Algeria in the
month of April, 1884, it was astonishing to see their
camels although reduced to skeletons making forced
marches with their loads. Mules, in their condition
could not have carried even their saddles.

WHAT AN EDITOR SHOULD HE-The source of tn

WHAT AN EDITOR SHOULD BE.-The source of the
following correct paragraph is unknown to us:
The majority of readers seem to think that nothing
can be more easy or pleasant than to edit paper
but of all the different employments by which men
make their bread and butter, there is none, we firmly
believe that so taxes the mind temper and flesh, as
that of editing paper. There is none that requires
nicer tact, a quicker wit, or kinder heart. A
curtish temper could never succeed editor; nor
narrow minded man nor an ignorant one. nor a
hasty one, nor an unforgiving one. An editor must
of necessity turn himself inside out to the public He
cannot be hypocrite any more than husband could
be hypocrite to his wife. He must expose himself
in all that he does much in selecting the thoughts
Of Others in publishing his own, and therefore, the
better way for him in the outset is to begin frankly
to himself from after contradictions and mortiti
cations Whoever succeeds toeraby well as an edi-
tor, is something more than ordinary man--let his
contemporaries think Of him as they will

MRs. .McMAHoN.-This lady, still perssting in her
insane pursuit of theatrical fame, made a Boston
debut the 23d ut At the hands of the critics she
met with the same reception as in Buffalo and New
York. The Post says:
Mrs. Mcmahon has placed a false estimate upon her
abilities she aspires to position that never be
attained by her present course and only hope
never to see many such sights that witnessed in
our leading temple of the drama last night. The
lady was called before the curtain at the conclusion
of the fourth and fifth acts evidently receiving the
demonstration as honest and complimentary.
