a Gem from Longfellow.

The following charming little poem is from Lon
lows new volume, just issued:
CHILDREN.
Come to me, o We childreni
For hear you at your play,
And the questions that perplexed me
Have vanished quite away.
Ye open the eastern windows,
That look toward the sun,
Where thoughts are singing swallows
And the brooks of morning run.
Inyour hearts are the birds and the sunshine,
In your thoughts the brookletis flow,
But in mine is the wind of Autumn
And the first fall of the snow
Ali what would the world be to Us
3 If the chill ldren were no more2
We should dread the desert behind US
Worse than the dark before.
What the leaves are to the forest,
With light and air for food,
Ere their sweet and tender Juices
Have been hardened into wood,
That to the world are children;
Through them it feels the glow
Of q brighter and SUMMER climate
Than reaches the trunks below.
Come TO me, o ye children
And whisper in my ear
What the birds and the winds are singing
In your sunny atmosphere.
For what are all our contrivings,
And the wisdom of our books,
When compared with your caresses,
And the gladness of your looks?
Ye are better than all the ballads
That ever were sung or said;
For ye are living poets,
And all the rest are dead.

Hearken 70 the great heart secrets,

Dare assail my fame as Rome,
Where the noble spouse, oetayia,
Weeps within her widowed home,
Seek her; say the Gods have told me,

That her blood with mine commingled,
Yet shall mount the throne of Kings.
And for thee, star-eyed Egyptiani
Glorious Sorceress Of the Nile,

With the splendors Of thy smile.

Let his brow the laurel twine,

Triumphing in love like thine.

PADDY ON AFR1cA.-At negro celebra-
ton lately, an Irishman stood listening to a
colored speaker, expatiating upon govern
ment and freedom; and as the orator came
to ''period" from the highest and most
poetical flights, the Irishman said:
''Bedad, he spakes well for nagur, don't
he, now?"
Somebody said, che isn't negro, he is
only half negro" a.-
''Only half nagur, is it? Well, if on
ly half nagur can talk in that style, I'm
thinking whole nagur might bate the

Education in England.

In the whole of England and Wales,
among 367, 1894 couples married during the
three years, 1889, 184O, and 1841, it ap-
pears by the census, that there were l22,
458 men and l81 1878 women who either
could not write at all, or who had attained
so little proficiency in penmanship that they
were ayerse to the exposure of their def
cheney. From this we may fairly judge
that nearly half of the manageable people
of England and Wales cannot write-a suf-
fcient commentary upon their condition,
under monarchial government, in the en-
hghtened nineteenth century.

MAKING Coon THING or IT.-Some five
or six weeks ago we copied the following
paragraphs from the report OF the Senate's
proceedings:
"A communication from the Secretary Of
War was received relative to the proposed
purchase Of site for the erection OF a forth
fcation for the protection Of the harbor Of San
Francisco.
.Mr. Fessenden objected to the price de-
manded, 100000, and said he thought the
necessity was not 50 urgent that Congress
should submit to such an enormous impose
tion.
"Mr. Gsin said the site was indispensa
BILE for protection, and hence they should not
hesitate about the price.
"Mr. Broderick declared that the whole
ranch was not worth $1,000. The subject
was then referred to the Military Com
mittee."
Gwin and Frederick were both Senators
from California, and knew all about the loca-
ton and its value. Recalling their antecc-
dents-(Gwin ran away from Mississippi
with government money, and Broderlck was
n New York rowdy Of the class which
"runs with the masheen, 1.-THE conclusion
was irresistible that Gwin or some friend Of
his was interested in the rancho, and Brod-
erick and his friends probably interested in
some other rancho.
Sure enough, the last mails from Califor-
MIA bring the San Francisco Herald Of June
$, with the following paragraph -
BY the last steamer we received the ru'
NOR that il was proposed to sell to the Gov
eminent piece Of land at Point Bonita fol
the erection Of fort for the sum Of 5000
900. Ii il 4 matter Of doubt as to whethel
the whole county Of Marin. in which Poin
Bonita is located, would bring that much il
the market to-day. A rancho embracin.
some four or FIVE leagues Of land lying along
the Bay Of San Francisco was sold shor
time ago for $4,000 or $4,000. Poin
Bonita Is very proper place to erect a for
LITIGATION. but we presume that enough Q
land for that purpose could at any time b
purchased for at the utmost 81 .00u. IL is I
be hoped that our Senators and Representa-
tiyes in Congress will prevent the consumma
ton OF this bargain. They are acquainte'
with the value Of property in that neighbor
hood"
We believe the purchase was not ordere
at the late session Of Congress; probabl
because the supply Of swindles on hand, For
Smelling, Willett's Point, &c., was ample.
