RIVER OF DEATH.-We have three cli-
mates in this region of country. First is the
plains, where in the Summer the heat is un-
remitting and intense. For five tedious
months scarce breath of wind stirs the
sweltering atmosphere, while the sun cotnfns
up like ball of red hot iron glares fiercely
from its rising till its going down. The wa
ter only to be found at long intervals ia lit
tie better than poison, being so saline and
acrid that 1t causes serious injury to the sys.
tenn, increasing rather than allaying the
thirst. while IN many places swarms of nox-
ious flies torment the traveller by day, and
myrads of mosquitoes by night In travel.
ing along the Lower Humbolt all these evils
are found to exist in an aggravated form. A
more unnviting country, or more execrable
stream certainly does not exist ON the faee
of the earth. Some, one appalled, by its ter.
rors has aptly called it the River of Death
better still, IN view of its Internal character
istics. had they named it Phlegothon, the
river of He'll. Dark, sullen and tufbid, its
its winding guttered channel, like tho filthy
outpc urlngs of some great sewer. Unlike
all other waters it's baleful moisture, in
stead Of nlvigoratng and refreshing, seems
to blight everything upon which it falls.-
The broken vehichels and the dry bones
scattered all along its banks attest that, not
without reason, it has receiv ed the fearful
baptism Of the River of Death

All the present was the time that tried

Late at night they prepared to retire. The
two soldiers were left alone after the rest had
gone to bed. for they had been used to help
ing each other. The Major cared for the
Captains shoulder, and the Captain tock
care of the Majors thigh.

And so they went to bed.
On the following morning, after bresktast
had been disposed Of, George took his sister
away into the library and had a losa talk
with her.
She wcpt and smiled by turns, during the
conversation.
When he came out from the library be met
his father in the hall and he had talk with
him.
Half all hour afterward he met the Captain
in the parlor.

THE SPIRIT RIDE.
BY STELLA OF LACKAWANyA

BY STELLA OF LACKAwANNA.
She steals to me in midnight dreams, .
And clasps my warm hand in her own;
She roams with me the mountain streams,
With tender sadness in her tone -
No lips our ritual ever said,
And yet-we two are spirit-wed
1 met her in the long-sgo,
When both were young, and she was fair
Above her cheek of youthful glow.
Lay waVy bands of soft, brown hair -
And in the hazel of her eye
A witching light that ma ie me sigh.
L met her in the long ago
She trod the woodland paths with me,
And. where the ripples gurgled low,
watched the foam with Alice Lee,
While snatches of low-murmured song,
Swept the wild-bounding waves along.
But years sped on, as swift years will,
And storm-clouds fecked our roseate sky;
We stood no more by rippling rill
To watch the sparkling foam toss by;
And Oh, the blight that fell on me
And the sweet maiden, Alice Lee!
They tore our clasping hands apart
And bade our red lips press no more -
Alas, for aching. breaking heart,
When its first passion-dream is o'er!
Alas, that life's best happiness
Should meet decree as stern as this
No more the rainbow of her smile
Arched the sad heavens that bent above;
No sunshine could fate beguile
That shut us from the world of love;
And all grew midnight dark 10 me,
And nay lost darling, Alice Lee
Twas many and many year ago,
I met her last--my spirit bride,
But often now, in dream words, lows
We talk together, side by side
And oft, with spirit-gaze, it seems
We watch the foam on woodland streams.
And when the stars steal forth at night,
Her music-voice is in my ear;
Her eyes look down, in their sof light,
And | am fancying she is here;
And life is bright again to me,
And the sweet maiden, Alice Lee.

THE LATEST PARODY.

THE PRINTERS CONSOLATION
Tell me, ye winged winds
That around my pathway play, Z.
Is there place on earth
Where Printers get their pay2
The whispering breeze went by
With accents filled with woe,
voice borne on the sorrowing air,
In sadness answered "No"
Tell me, ye flowing streams,
That smoothly glide along,
Is there one cherished place, ..i
Where Printers meet no wrong2
The gentle brook replied,
In murinurs soft and low,
And winding on its veriant way,
1t meekly answered No."
Tell me. We murky clouds,
Now rising in the west,
Il there upon the globe
One spot by Printers blest 70
The flashing cloud outspoke
With an indignant glow,
A voice that filled the earth with woe,
In thunder answered "No"
Tell me, hard-hearted man,
Z" Unfolding day by day,
Is there no honor in thy breast,
The Printers bill to pay2
UnansweriDg turns he round.
And plain his actions show.
An uttered oath-capt sound is heard,
His actions answer No."
Tell me, thou gentle nymph,
Who blessed life's hours through.
Is there one sacred shrine
Where Printers get their due
i mantling blush her cheek diffused,
Did tenfold grace impart,
A soft, responsive sigh replied,
"'Tis found in woman's heart.'

silence of peace and joy, the silence of sub
