Bonez-Vellaumesy, q new torpedo Of

OF this torpedo is described as being
more certain and murderous than

MIS0EIsLANx
One Year.

10y SANS souci. - -
0ne year !-cenc yearrr-one sad. dark year,
An awful lapse OF woe
since in the far-off mountain wil,is
They laid our darling 4ow.
, Seca=none he loved were with him there,
To catch his parting sigh:
No motherfond, no sister dear
Was there to sec him die.
Cold, stranger hands, with careless touch,
Last clasped about his own;
While needless ears were lightly bent
To list his dying tone.
'sMy mother-oh! comrades tell her"
His faint voice seemed to swell
'"reu her, did not fear to die,
And, oh, that sall is we'll. "
The blue eyes flashed with wonted fire,
Then softly closed III death,
While still the words OF faith and hove
We're trembling on his breath.
And this was all-fond and trusting
That OUR fainting soldier said,
Before the mustcr-roll was called
That ranked him mid the dead.
The flowers have blossomed once since
then.
And faded soft away,
As if the heart of Nature cen
Knew not how to be gay.
The very birds then changed their times
Where tasselled tree-tops wave,
And seemed requiem TO chaunt
Above our fallen brave.
And though the sky is bright and blue
And Spring has come again,
Within this aching heart Of mine
Eternal Winters reign.
No sunshine lights with golden ray
The dense and awful gloom
Which my poor life must ever know
Till in the silent tomb.
There is no Joy earth holds for me
Not compassed by grave,
Which rests amid the mountain wilds
Where moaning pine trees wave.
Ihave one dream-onc treasured hope
Amid Life's mould and rust
When Death consigns me to the tomb
I'll mingle with his dust.

Getteng and Holding Money.

On this topic of general concern,
Cory O'Lanus, the Brooklyn Eagle
sage, discourses with his usual lucidi-
ty and clearness as follows:
Every maa his own landlord, is 4
capital doctrine.
I should have adopted it myself
long years ago, but for want of capi-
tai
This is the difficulty with most
tenants
AL the real estate own is located
in a dozen hower-pots, which Mrs.
O'Lanus devofes to the cultivation of
geraniums, verbenas, cactuses and
other ornamental vegetables.
The earth is a mans inheritance,
but have not come in for my share
of it yet.
Some capitalist has got the title
deed to my estate, and won't give
them up till I can raise money enough
to redeem them.
Ny father neglected to leave me Il
fortune-a habit which runs in our
family.
From present appearances, I think
I shall hand it down to posterity.
AS Shakespeare observes, some men
are born poor, others acquire power
ty, others have poverty thrust upon
them.
The O'Lanuses were always dis
tinguished for their ability to spend
all they could get; all my rich uncles
died before they made their fortunes.
Getting rich involves two 1ues-
tions:
First, get money.
Second, hold on to it.
understand the principle first
rate
AS soon as l can accomplish the
first condition, am going to try my
hand on the second.
When I got married, Mrs. O'Lanus
and myself passed joint resolution
that we would get rich. Getting the
furniture took all our capital in hand,
but l was to give Mrs. OLanus all
the money got. She was to buy
only what we wanted, and put the rest
in the saving bank.
The first year we wanted more than
we could buy, and the bank account
came out without balance.
The next year my salary was in
creased.
So was my family.
Likewise the expenses
Bank account same rs year before
Third year ditto.
We continued to accumulate at the
same rate for several years in sue
cession.
Then the war broke ont, and we
concluded not to put money in the
bank for the present, because things
were then SO uncertain.
Since then living has been high.
and we have concluded to postpone
the accumulation of a fortune until
the income tax is abolished and gro
ceries become reasonable.

Good Versus Poor Animals.

In travelling over the country, in how
many fields do we notice teams of horses
or yokes of oxen engaged in blowing or
other work, which, on account of inferi-
GRITTY of size or condition, or of being
slow walkers, are able to accomplish but
a small part of what strong, fast work
ing pair could do; and thus these far
mers, instead of being able to take advan-
tage of the seasons as they arrive, are
delayed in their work, and serious losses
are often the results. ..
The same result is true in reference to
steers, sheep, hogs, Sc, for while it costs
no more to keep first. class animal than
a poor one, the difference in value, at the
time of sale, often decides the question of
profit or loss; and in regard to cows, it
is the same; for while one cow will yield
enough milk to merely pay the cost Of
keeping, another that gives double the
amount of the first, will produce hand
some profit.
