Autumn.

9 Weeut the following from ths local
columns of the Shullsburg Local. It
is beautiful-thoug htful, especially at
this season of the year:
The leaves are falling from the trees,
yellow, withered, dead: sadly emblem
attic of the decay that awaits us all The
frosts OF night pinch them, chilling the
young current Of their lives, and the
morning breeze sweeps along and sepa-
rates them from the parent limb to which
they clung through spring and summer.
They fall, to bloom no more, and niingle
with the dust Of the earth, while the dis
robed tree stands With naked branches,
the very picture Of poverty
It's thus in the garden of humanity +:
the flowers that bloomed so fairly once,
the JOY and delight Of those who gazed
upon them, are nipped in the bud and
swept away by the breath Of disease and
buried like the leaves of the forest,
meath the dust Of the earth
There is something melancholy in the
contemplation Of decay that fills the soul
with gloomy sadness when the eyes
are closed to all the beauties Of our mo-
Their earth, and the things we love are
shrouded in the dark mantle Of death.
There is something awfully solemn, ter
ribly gublime, in the thought Of death.
The tomb is all a mystery. Beyond its
portals the eye of man cannot reach.
He must enter it to learn its secrets, and
then they are not to be revealed.
You leave your friend ON the shore of
the sea, to embark for foreign lands,
with press of the hand and parting
kiss, and spirit Of sadness takes pos
session Of you as the vessel spreads her
white wings to the breeze and glides
across the billow, bearing away her pre-
cious burden but sadder far, the spirit
which takes possession Of us when we
stand on the gloomy shores Of eternity
and behold our friends embark in Death 5
boat to return no more.
EThese falling leaves remind us al
this. They are Gods mute ministers, to
admonish man Of his mortality The
language Of the scared and yellow lead,
as it falls rustling to the ground, is more
impressive than the most elaborate dis
plays Of human oratory. The one speaks
the language of nature in all her elo-
quence, the other, the language of art

The general display was good, though
