Oh the sad Fall When giant trees are
bowling their naked limbs to guide them
through cold northern blasts oh the sad,
sad fall, whose every appearance bears the
symbol of death in its bosom-the withered
leaf that yields its gentle life to scarcely
watt Of the southwest wind, and whose fall
is so soft and sanity that a rustic is all we
hear ere it folds It's soft limbs in quiet rest
forever
The FAN is of all sad things the sadest;
even its very fulness of ripeness smells of
the already doomed to die, and one never
passes an autumn afternoon without that
longing, eager spirit for the beyond, the here
after that possesses such q charm for us
when N the presence of the dead, one does
not know when passing through forest
when leaves are dropping from the trees
wheather most to yield to the almost irresis-
table feeling of grief that would drown the
soul IN tears, or to the feeling of exultant
JOY that accompanies it, that from this death
another beautiful and bright Spring, passing
through the cold bosom of winter, viii be
born, but upon the point of the brightest
anticipation is darkened shadow Of pres
ent sadness, and the heart grieves sorely to
find that it cannot enjoy so much in antiei-
patton without passing through the present
death. 'Tis a SOFT sweet sadness tho, that
Of the fall in looking at the rest of nature
we see q life eliminating in fuIness of
well meant struggles, triumphing over decay
because of so much good rendered. the
Seeding corn hangs its head in the fulness
of ears, and thanks bountifuI Benifcence
that in its death it furnishes sweet bread to
struggling thousands.
Oh in contemplating the fall, my very
heartstrings weep, weep to see the yielding
- of the vital principle of vegetable mat
ter, whilst from their very weeping, they are
atuned to sweet harmony in singing poeans
to the harvest of life that springs from the
death fall Oh that we could only turn to
the Great Author and in singleness Of heart
yield to him the harvest of we'll spent years
give to him the garnered treasures Of un-
tiring effort against sin. Oh that we could
like the fall, in sadness and ripe fullness
yield to our Lord the result Of life-season
well spent in trying to serve and love him
and to give up in that state of sad weeping
and happy laughter, weeping for failures,
laughing for final success, yielding in per-
feet peace like the fall It's beauties to the
Lord who in his loving mercy brought us
forth and safely guided US through the trou-
bled sea of life. ?.

Hhat Does It Mean The Baltimore
Transcript says the South is at this moment
in the most profound quiet and repOse.
There is not q rebeiin arms; there is not a
United States soldier necessary to preserve
order in any part Of the Southern States;
there is absolutely not ripple left to show
where the great ship of the Confederacy
sunk, and sunk forever. Yet at radical
meetings. the proposition to march slaugh-
tering, burning and confscating columns
into this peaceful and unresisting South. is
received with uproarious applause. In the
name of humanity, justice, civilization
what does all this mean

The Brownsville Courier of the 1lth,
reports a spirited attack on Matamoras on
the 9th The skirmishing lasted several
hours. The assaulting party under Topia
gained the advantage, but distrusting Conti-
mas he did not follow up his success. The
defenders lost twenty prisoners, and Colonel
Reas, their commander, was arrested for bad
conduct on the field.
On the night of the 10th Topia died of the
cholera. This event will change the cur
rent of events.
Ortega and party remain at Brazos, the
guests of the. commander ofthe United States
troops, and has signifed his intention not
to return to New Orleans.
Fifteen hundred troops are expected on th 9
Mexican frontier soon.

There Is nothing in the English language
more suggestive Of wild regret, passionate
sorrow, blighted hopes, and bafled ambition,
that the little sentence we have just quoted.
In it the past, the present, and the days TO
come, seem breoding under the mighty
shadow, which is never lifted
We gather together old letters to burn
them, for they have accumulated until they
are nuisance to ourselves and others, but
we reverently lay aside one, of which the
faded ink and faint tracery show the lapse
of many years. And yet It seems but yes
terday that she, beloved one, stood beside
Us, with sunny CLEANS flashing through the
maple bOughs on her chestnut hair and in
noeent eyes, in whose clear, truthful depths
we read, what we read perhaps but once IN
life. Nor did the language fail or grow 81
lent until the Angel of Death laid its amar-
anthine crown upon her brow. and we closed
the white lids over their dim blue, and shut
IN with them the dearest hopes and sunshine
Of life, that might have been rounded into
full completeness by love and happiness
And we remember teo, that beautiful May
morning, redolent- with light, and cOloring
and perfume when we laid her under Tue
sod, and went forth, stunned and blinded
with the noise Of what seemed thousand
waters, IN. our ears. And our heart, with
one wild protest against destiny, cries out
now, even as it did then Oh, my God, it
might have beenr T.
Cursing and reeling through the streets,
staggers one from whose vices all restraints
had been broken and cast aside like so maRy
wisps Of straw. The height from which he
has fallen, only makes him crave deeper
depth, where his degradation may burrow,
and hide itself from the eyes of men, His
bleared eyes gaze 2t tirst vacantiy, bltt = ten
eagerly, through yoli3er window, where a
little child is lisping its evening prayer be-
side mothers knee. Memory comes to
him, not gently, as to others, but sweeps
ike the rush of a storm over his turbulent
soul, and to her summons he replies Be
hold, l am here the innocent child whose
nightly slumbers were sanetifed by bles-
sings and prayer; the youth who scaled the
heights Of knowledge with untiring step,
but forgot his early faith, because the way
was long, and the mists were heavy the
matured manhood, disgraced and degraded
below the semblance of humanity. Give me
one breath of the fresh, pure air of child
hood, and then let me die p And from the
darkness in which he disappears, comes back
the stricken cry & las J it might have been.
And thus the wall arises from every nook
and corner, where human breath is drawn,
and human hearts utter their protest against
the crushing wheels of inexorable Fate
The skeleton Is in the closet, and at our
feasts, and dress it in what festal garments
we may, its CHASTITY contour is never quite
hidden Yet the flowers whose roots are
watered by human tears form the garland
which Sandalphon weayes into a crown Of
immortal beauty

University Of the SoHth-When the war
commenced, this great enterprise, inaugura-
ted by the then Bishop Of Louisiana, had 50
far progressed that preparations had been
made for the erection Of the permanent
buildings. The corner stone of the central
one, an immense block of variegated Ten
nessee marble, beautifully wrought. was laid
on the 10th Of October, 1860, in the pres,
ence Of thousands of spectators; the inter-
esting services of the occasion being partici-
pated IN by some ten bishops and large
number Of clergy Of the Protestant Episeo-
pal Church from various dioceses- Among
the documents deposited in the stone was a
copy of the Constitution OF the United
States, which was laid in the box by Bishop
Elliott Of Georgia, with an emphatic este
Perpetua. M
By the death sf Bishop Polk, the Uniyer-
sity lost its founder and originator, to whom
it owed almost wholly the progress it had
already made and in the death Of Bishops
Otey, of Tennessee, and Cobbs, Of Alabama,
It also lost two Of its most thorough and
earnest supporters. We are happy, hoss-
ever, to learn that this great wOrk--so i'm
portant to the best interests Of the whole
South-will probably BE carried oct to q
successful completion. The pTineely do
main Of eight thousand acres Of land upon
the Sewanee Plateau Of the Cumberland
Mountains, Tennessee, secured to the Uni-
versity, remains in itself a magnificent en-
cowment; and Of the liberal private sub
seTiptions made to the enterprise before the
war-amounting to about half a million dol
lars-it is believed that the greater part viii
be eventually secured. At recent meet
ing of the Trustees it was unanimously de-
cided to 60 on with the work, and carry it
out upon the grand scale originally designed,
and to the end eontemplated-of establish
ing University complete in ali the depart

The Bones Of MiitoH:-In August Of 1890,
some wOrkmen engaged In repairing the
church Of St Giles, Cripplegate, found un-
der the floor Of the chancel an old coGiu,
which, as shown by the sexton register, had
rested there undisturbed for 1l6 years. For
q grown person it was very small one. It's
length did not exceed five feet ten inches,
2ud 1t measured only sixteen inches across
at the broadest part The body almost IN
variably stretches after death, 50 that the
bodies Of females of the middle stature and
under, require collins Of atloast equal length
and the breadth, even outside, did not come
fully to the average breadth Of shoulders in

Look out for Hinl.-An exchange raps on
the knuckles of a certain class IN this good
style:
"when you find man writing his adver-
tisement and sticking 1t up at the post-ofiee,
or In hotels, or on the street posts instead
of publishing it in his town paper, look out
for him; the very act shows that he Is to
close-fsted to deal with to advantage This
is the frozen truth.
To which the Banner adds; And when
you hear Of a man who don't subscribe for
his town paper, but who likes 1t extremely
we'll, and always borrows it from his neigh
bors and reads It, you may set him down as
the very soul Of iberality.

COLoRADo.-A correspondent Of the Lou
isrille Democrat thus speaks Of the mines
of the new State Of Colorado, 80
The immense amount Of labor expended
in exploring and developing the mineral
lodes, the large number of mills containing
a vast amount Of machinery, costing an al
most incalculable sum, and lastly, the great
magnitude and richness of the mines, almost
stultify ones senses, creating new and
strange sensation. Ones preconeeiyed ideas
In regard to the value of a dollar are dimin-
ished very rapidly, where one sees gold, sure
enough gold, weighed IN large scales like
coffee and sugar and then he begins to re-
alize that truly he is IN a land of geld.
Almost all the large capitalists of the
United States, and many in Europe, are
largely interested in these mines Many of
the operations are at n standstill, from the
fact that the price Of gold has deprecated,
and only about twenty per cent of the gold
is extracted from the ores by the stamp mill.
A large part of the gold lost floats of with
the water, and some remains with the pull
verised ores. Many processes have been
tried, at great cost, but were failures; but
the practical difficulty has lately been over
come, and now, instead of 20 per cent. 95
or 90 per cent Of the gold can be extracted,
with no greater expense than formerly.
What the future Of Colorado will be IN Eve
years no man can form any estimate. The
largest smelting operators IN the world have
lately been IN Colorado, and are perfectly
satisfied with the great abundance and rich
ness of the Ores exceeding IN all probability
any others in the world. The superinten-
dent of the great copper smelling works of
the Messrs Vivian, at Swansea, IN W ales,
took home one hundred tons of ore, to be
put through their furnaces, and if they prove
successful with them there is no calculating
the amount of English capital that will be
invested in these mines. The largest for
tunes that viii be made in the United States
in the future viii, in all probability, be from
the mines of Colorado
1t is the opinion Of a scientific gentleman.
who had charge Of one Of the richest silver
mines IN Peru for seven years, that the sill
yer ores of Colorado rival them IN richness
As an example of the yield, one mill, Smith
q Parmelee's, took out the week / left 354
ounces Of gold, nearly $4,000 currency.
Johnny SensendeFfer, a young German, took
out last month $l3 100 His total expendi-
tures were 2,S37 rs, leaving a handsome
profit of over I1,000 per month, and SO I
might go on. The above are instances Of
what can be and is done.
