BOISE.
Mr.. EDITOR,

| MIR. EDITOR,
The name Of our county and mines is pro-
nounced and written il various ways; but of
course there is but pne correct way. The
proper manner Of spelling is Boise, with an
accent mark over tie e, being divided into
two syllables and pronounced as if written
BOy-zay, the accent being on the lastsyllable.
1t is French adjective, signifying woody, or
wooded. Bots is tie French noun for Wood,
and BY adding e. = forms the adjective Boiset
In French, de, VIII the noun following, is Oft
en- used instead IF the adjective: hence, in
stead of Boise Fviere, woody River) tits
lust as correct toswrite Riviere de Boise, (Riv-
er of WOPd.) The old maps have it written
Boise. We should continue to spell and pro-
nounce it as in French. and thereby preserve
the true Specification of the word.

| BENEFIT OF FEMALE SOCIETY. 1t is better
for you to pass an evening once or twice in
lady'S drawing-room, even though the long
conversation be slow, and you know the songs
by heart, than in club, tavern or pit of
theater. All amusements Of youth to which
yirtuous women are not admitted, are delete
rious in their nature. All men who avoid fe-
male society have dull perceptions, and are
stupid, or have gross tastes and revolt against
what is pure. Your club swaggerers, who
are sucking billiard cues all night, declare fe-
male society insipid. Poetry is insipid to a
yokel beauty has no charms for blind man
music does not please a poor beast who does
not know one tune from another and as a
true epicure is never tired of water sanchy
and brown bread and butter, I protest caa
sit for whole night talking to we'll regula-
ted, kindly woman. about her girl coming out
or her boy at school, and like the evenings
entertainment One of the greatest benefits
a man may derive from womans society is,
that he is bound to be respectful to them.
The habit is of good to your moral men, de-
pend upon it. Our education makes US the
most eminently selfish men in the world.
We fight for ourselves, we perish for
ourselves, we yaWn for ourselves,
we light our pipes, and say we go out, we
prefer ourselves and our ease and the greatest
good that comes to man from woman's 500
2iety is, that he has to think of somebody
besides himself-somebody to whom he is
bound to be constantly atteatiYe and respect

IT'S True that Fate's Unsparing Hand.

- IFue That F'ate's Unsparing Har
BY W. HOWARD PERRIGo.
IT'S true that fate's unsparing hand
May doom the hopes to blight
That in the happy days of yore
Twined round the heart all bright:
IT'S true that time may deeply trace
Its lines upon the brow,
Bleach the once raven locks to white,
And bid the form to bow
But, oh, the heart can meier grow old,
No changes can it know,
1t throbbeth still with love as warm
As in the long ago.
The fame we cOurted in our youth
May loose its quickening spell,
The laurel wreath may lose its power
To cause the heart to swell;
Each sunny dream, each cherished hone.
May fade before times dart
But vain is time, with all its blight,
To change the loving heart;
For tbs heart that once has truly loved,
Will love when life is DER
And with affection still more pure
Love on a brighter shore.

THE Thin PARTITION BETWEEN LIFE AND
DEATH.-When we walk near the powerful
machinery we know that one single mis-step
and those mighty engines would tear US to
ribbons with their flying wheels, or grind US
20 powder in their monstrous jaws. So, when
we are laundering across the land in the rail-
car, and there is nothing but half an inch of
iron fange to hold us upon the track. So.
when we are at sea in ship, and there is
nothing but plank between US and eternity.
We imagine we see how close we are to the
edge of precipice. But we do not see it.
Whether on the sea or on the land the parti-
ton which divides us from eternity is some
thing thinner than an oak plank or half an
inch of iron fange. The machinery of life
and death are within US. The issues that hold
these beating powers in their places are often
not thicker than Sheet of paper and if that
partition were pierced or ruptured it would
be just the same with US if a cannon-ball had
struck US. Death is inbeparably bound up
with life in the very structure of onr bodies.
Struggle as he will to widen the space, no man
can at any time go further from death than
the thickness Of sheet of paper.

TIME AND LOVE---AN ALLEGORY
BY JOHN G. SAKE.

Old Time and young Love, one morning in May
Glanced to meet by river in halcyOn weather
And agreeing, for once Cts fable, you'll say,
In the same little boat made voyage together
Strong, steady and patient Time pulled at his oar
And swift DER the waters the voyagerS go;
But Loye-WhO was thinking of Pleasure on shore
| Complained that his boatman was Wretchellysl slow
But Time, the old sailor, expert at his trade,
And knowing the leagues that remained to be done
| Content with the regular speed that he made,
I Tugged away at his oar and kept steadily on,
! Love, always impatient of doubt or delay,
Now sighed for the aid of the favOring gales,
! And scOlded at Time in the sapciest way,
FOrnot having furnished the shallOp with sails.
But Time, as serene as calendar saint,
(WhateVer the graybeard was thinking UPON,
All deaf to the voice Of the yOnker's complaint,
Tugged away at his oar and kept steadily on.
Love, veXed at the heart, only clamored the more;
And BY the gods in what country or cline
Vas ever lubber who handled the oar
In so lazy a fashion as old Frther Time gu
But Time only smiled in a cynical way,
Otis often the way with your elderly DOM
And one who knows more than he cares to display
And still at his oar pulled steadily on.
Grown calmer, at last the exuberant boy
EnlYens the minutes with snatches of rhyme
The voyage at length, he begins to enjoy,
And soon has forgotten the presence of Time.
But Time, the severe, egotistical elf,
Since the day that his travels he entered upon,
Has meier for moment forgotten himself,
But tugs at his oar and keeps steadily on.
Awaking once more, Love sees with a sigh
That the river OF Life will be presently passed i
And now he breaks forth with piteous cry,
" Time, gentle Time your are rowing too fast!r
But Time, well knowing that Love will be dead.
Dead--dead! in the boat!-~ere the voyage is done:
)nly give him an ominOus shake of the head,
WhiIe he tuns at his and kaar,s .taa
