REMEMBER ME.

Remember me! Who can forget
Those touching words by fond lips spoken,
When eyes are dimm'd with dewy tears, .
And hearts with grief are nearly broken
Remember me! The parting words
, Of friends, perhaps, about to sever,
For days, for months, it may be years,
Perchance on earth to part forever.
Remember me! When death is nigh,
And some loved spirit fast is feeting,
: Those accents seem to shadow forth
The promise of deathless meeting
Remember me What depth of love .
Those simple words at once reveal;
They seem the language of the heart, .
A sad, and yet a sweet appeal.

HEATED WIND SToRMs.-A heated wind storm
passed ovor portion of Kansas on the Sth of July
which proved nearly as destructive % animal life

about halfpast ten O'Clock a. m., and continued
until three o'clock in the afternoon. At one
o'clock the mercury rose to 1193 degrees, and
continued so for about an hour, and then gradually
began to decrease. The effect can scarcely be
imagined. The wind blew brisk gale carrying
with it salty, sulphurous smell. Two men in at
tempting to cross the country from lola to Hum
boldt, distant eight miles, were, overtaken and
perished. There were three others at Humboldt,
who were caught out with teams, which perished,
the men alone surviving, and now are in a fair
way to recover. There was scarcely chicken
left in the country Hogs and cattle fell in their
tracks and suffocated. Various reasons and con-

witness" tells the following remarkable story:
little boy in that region walked up one morning
last winter and discovered that lie was blind. He
is twelve or thirteen years old, and up to that
morning his sight has been perfect When told
the second time by his father to get up he replied:
"Father, is it daylight" Yes, long ago" "Then,
father the little fellow sadly said, II am blind"
And so it was. His sight was gone.
The boy was recently taken to Nashville for
medical treatment. The doctors declined to do
anything for him, however. But during his stay
in the city his sight suddenly returned, when he
threw his arms around his fathers neck and ex-
claimed: ooh, father | can see."- -.-

of glorious summer day-the sinking to
rest behind the distant hog pen-the chickens were
going to roost-the bull frogs were commencing
their evening song-the pollywogs, in their native
mud puddles, were preparing themselves for the
shades of night-and Sal and myself sat upon an
old and .antquated back log listening to the music
of nature, such tree toads, and and then the
mellow music of distant Jack was waited to our
ears by the gentle zephyrs that sighed among the
mullinstalks and came heavy laden with delicious

from the brass buttons of solitary horsernan,

my hand resting on the small Of her back-she
