THE STAR AND THE WA tERL LILY

The sun stepped down from his golden throne,
And lay in the silent sea.
And the lily hath folded her satin leaves,
For sleeping thing was she.
What is the lily dreaming of:
Why crisp the waters blue.
See, she Is lifting her vanished lid
Her white leaves are glistening through
The rose is cooling his burning cheek
In the lap of the breathless tide;
The lily hath sisters fresh and fair,
That would lie by the roses side;
He wonld love her better than all the rest,
And he would be fond and true;
But the lily unfolded Ter weary lids,
And looked at the sky so blue.
Remember, remember, thou silly one,
How fast will thy summer glide,
And wilt thou wither, a virgin pale,
Or flourish blooming bride:
"Oh, the rose is DID, and thorny, and cold,
And he lives on earth. said she.
"But the star is fair, and he lives in the air,
And he shall my bridegroom be-"
But what if the stormy cloud should come,
And rutfie the silver sea
Would he turn his eve from the distant sky,
To smile on thing like thees
D, no, fair lily he would not send
One ray from his far off throne;
The winds shall blow. and the waves shall
flow
And thou wilt be left alone.
There is not leaf on the mountain top,
Nor drop of evening dew,
Nor a golden sand on the sparkling Shore
Nor a pearl on the waters blue,
That he has not cheered with his tickle smile,
And warmed with his faithless beam,-
And will he be true to pallid flower,
That floats on the quiet stream :
Alas for the lily she would not heed,
But turned to the skies afar,
And barred her breast to the trembling ray
That shot from the rising star;
The cloud came over the darkened sky,
And over the waters wide;
She looked i'll vain in the beating rain,
And sank in the stormy tide.

SMALL PoX AND SCARLET FEvER.-
\ correspondent of an exchange says:
81 herewith append recipe which
has been used to my knowledge in
hundreds of cases. 1t will prevent or
cure the small pox though the pittiugs
are filling When Jenner discovered
the COW pox in England the world of
science hurled an avalanche of fame up
on his head but when the most scien-
tifc school of medicine in the world
that of Paris-published this recipe as
a panacea for small pox, it passed un-
needed. 1t is unfailiIg as fate, and
conquers in every instance. 1t is harm
less wheo taken by well person. 1t
will also cure scarlet fever. Here is
the recipe as have used it, and cured
my children of scarlet fever; here it is
as | have used it to cure the small pox;
when learned physicians have said the
patient must die, it cured: Sulphate
of zinc, one grain foxglove (digitalis,)
one grain; half a teaspoonful of sugar;
mix with two tablespoonfuls of water.
When thoroughly mixed, add four
ounces of water. Take spoonful every
hour. Either disease will disappear in
twelve hours For child, smaller
doses according to age. If counties
would compel their physicians to use
this, there would be no need of pest
houses. If you value advice and ex-
perience, use this for that terrible
disease .

Elsie. 4 think she knew my guilt from
the first. Women instiuctively ferret
out each others sins; and she has de.
feated me where thought success was
certain May her future life be as
wretched as my hate is strong!
Her gaze wandered from Elsie to
Chesley- wandered, softened and fell
Her wicked eyes could not steady them
selves to look firmly in his. A faint
color sufused her face, that had been
so deathly white. she appeared strug-
Cling within herself a moment and then
sprang eagerly forward.
You will never look on my earthly
face again. she murmured. Will you
not kiss me before | go?'
He shrank from her with a gesture
of horror and loathing.
See what gratitude is ? she said,
turning to the officers, with a derisive,
bitter laugh. L lost my soul for this
man. He will not give me one kiss in
exchange for it,
This scene has lasted long enough,
madam; yon must 60.
They stepped forward to conduct her
away; but with smile, fearful from
its strange brightness, she warned them
back Her white, jeweled hand sought
her bosom; with quick, impulsive
motion she stopped and caught Chesley's
hands passionately to her lips; there
was flash of steel; a crimson wave
gushcd over her Llack robes; she stag
gered and fell down at Chesley's feet,
still smiling.
The gallows would not have been a
fitting end to this tragedy; but 1 fore
stall the executioner! she exclaimed,
her voice growing fainter and fainter
along the sylables.
Then she sprang upright, stared with
glazing eyes from one to the other, and
fell back. Her white chin quivered-
the delicate nostrils trembed-the
great handsome eyes flew wide open,
rolled wildly under their lids, and set
tied to a deathly stare; her hands clasp
ed themselves spasmodically together
above her breast, as if in vain attempt
to clutch at the fleeing phantom of life
as it fled across the threshold-and then,
with mighty tremor that convulsed
her whole physical frame, she lay quite
still. AWE struck and Mortified, they
gathered beside her, and turned her
beautiful but CHASTITY face to the light.
She was dead. And the glad process
sion that gathered at the prison gate to
carry Edwin Chesley in triumph to his
home was followed by smaller, darker
one, bearing in their midst the corpse
of the murderess aud suicide

MINERAL WATERS. quote the fol-
lowing from the Lafayette County Demo
crat, published at Darlington
"We call the attention of our readers
and the public, who are fond of that cool
ing beverage known as Mineral Water, that
Mr.. Joseph Lean of Mineral Point has in
troduced quality of his own manufacture
which is far superior to any we ever saw.
1t is delicious drink, and we advise all
to try it. When our restaurants prove its
quality they will purchase no other"
Every word Of which is true. We have
never drank in any of our large cities Min
cral Waters superior to those manufactured
by Mr.. Lean, being made of the very best
material and fully charged with carbonic
acid gas renders it delicious and healthy
beverage. We understand that Mr.. L. will
add to his machinery and other material
another season, and ship extensively by
railroad. Few, if any soda water factories
have such advantages for manufacturing
having cisterns Of capacity of near forty
thousand gallons. This is decided advan-
tage, as no good solution can be made from
our spring or well water, it being so i'm
pregnated with lime.

Mining Items.

Yesterday several experienced miners
visited the diggings of Vandevcr u Stew
enson in Wisconsin, and came home with
the opinion that the lode will be one of the
most fruitful ones yet discovered in this
region. The mineral being taken out is
of the most valuable quality, which IS Al
always indicative Of extensive VEINS
Enormous chunks are raised, several hay
ing balanced 600 and 800 weights. Gne
thousands pounds an hour can easily be
taken from the lode with the present ia
cilities. The steam pump is being pre-
pared for more effective work as the deep
water is approached. The idea so gneer-
ally prevalent that these are old diggings,
is erroneous. The ground was new"
when Messrs. Vandever and Stephenson
commenced mining there three months
since. Quite sum of money had been
expended by the time the "paying" min
eral was struck. They got the highest
price paid for mineral on the other side.
The Sparks Cave Mining Company
near Fairplay are at work with theiI Earl
pump and steam engine, emtying the cave
in which they have discovered mineral, as
fast as possible. They are finding large
mineral. The cave extends nearly thou
sand feet in an east and west direction, a
new apartment huving beer discovered.
If there is reliance to be placed in ''indica-
tion,' there is mino Of wealth beneath
the writer in this cave.
We learn that Denman G Co., who have
steam pump at work half mile north Of
Vandevcr, Stevenson & Co., have discov-
cred mineral-in how great quantities we
are not informed. 1t seems as if that whole
tract is bound to yield mineral wherever it
is properly worked But it takes capital
and pluck to succeed in mining operations
there.
Mr.. Geo. Wilde, who has furnace about
twenty Ave miles northeast of Dubuque.
has recently purchased 100000 pounds of
mineral at s52 per thousand. He will
commence the smelling of it tomorrow

KILLED BY A BLAST From the Mineral
Point Tribune we learn that a sad occur
renee took place in shaft Of the Mineral
Point Mining Company's mines, on Satur'
day morning last. Mr.. Solomon Manly,
in company with other workmen, had pre-
pared blast, of which the fuse was lighted
when the men retired to place of safety.
After waiting sufficient length of time, as
was supposed, and there being no explos-
;on, Mr.. Manly, thinking the fuse had gone
oot, repaired to the spot, which he reached
at the moment the .blast exploded. He
was instantly killed, several pieces of rock
striking his head and other parts of his
person. Mr.. Manly was an Industrious la
boring man, and leaves wife and five
children, whose support had been mainly
dependent on his labor, to mourn his sud
den death.
