TEMPERANCE AND THE PREss.-The
New Lisbon Owls. Gazette saws:

New Lisbon (Wis.) Gazette says:
If every paper in Wisconsin would take
the high and noble stand that the Chief
occupies on the subject of temperance, a
single year would be sufficient to dry up
the last hell-hole in the State, and drive
the last vender of liquid damnation to his
senses or the peni.entiary. But too many
of our public journals have drunken edi-
tors, and they can always be bought for
whlskey, and the strongest argument we
have ever heard IN favor of the restora-
uon of the death penalty is that such
graceless villains go unhung. We regard
any conductor of public journal who will
pander TO tbs influence of groceries and
puff their infarnal traffic, as infinitely
meaner than the common chicken thief,
and deserves short job at pulling
hemp" really more than the common

He CARETH FoR THEE."-The hu-
man heart is ever seeking some object
upon which to lavish It's tender affections,
aud 10y which it may be loved and cher
ished in return. If this great want is
not met in the soul, there is an aching
void the world may never feel--a secret
loneliness no lapse of time may de-
siroy. When human sympathy is lost
to such a soul, 1t turns not IN vain to a
higher fountain of happiness and IS
satisfied, while amid the calm stiffness
Which reigns supreme, steals a gentle
vcice, " He careth for thee

Did'st ever ask the inset tattler what Ka
really did to make such stir in the world, a

answer:
THE KATY-DID'S ANSWER TO KATY
oh' haty, dear, You know you did,
At midnight's silent hour,
Steal softly through the moonlight,
10 this my pleasant bower
And here beneath its vines and leaves,
BY blushing roses hid,
You met the man you lTe, Kate,
You did. you knows did.
And here you leaned upon his breast,
His arm was round your waist,
Your hand was locked in his, Kate,
And when he stopped to taste
The nectar that was on your lip,
How gently was he child
You loved to hear his whisper VOWS,
You did, You know you did
The moon was in the sky, Kate,
The stars were watching there,
The gentle breath of Summer night
Was sporting in your hair
l listened to your words, Kate,
Though softly and low they fell,
I heard them every one, Kate,
And if l would, could tell.
But never fear me, gentle one,
Nor waste a thought or tear,
Lest | should whisper what | heard
In any mortal ear
only sport among the boughs,
And like a spirit hid,
think on what l saw and heard,
And laugh, Katy Did"
sit among the leaves here,
When evening zephyrs sigh,
And those that listen to my voice,
| love TO mystify
never tell them all / know,
Altho' I'm often bid,
l laugh at curiosity,
And chirrup" Katy-did."
1 would not make you blush, Kate,
Your innocence l know
| know your spotless purity
Is like the virgin snow.
And yet you'd better not, Kate,
Altho' YOU think you're hid,
Steal to my bower by moonlight,
As once you know you did.
