The Lender Poor.

Distress always reigns in London. the
very rich and the very poor being close
neighbors in the great metropolis. The
London Times notices that at certain
doors in some of the districts of the city
crowds of men may be seen jostling,
driving, almost fighting each other, for
admission: and the admission when
once secured is not to see q fayorite
actor or hear a popular preacher, OF to
witness q prize fight or n rat bait, but
to gain the privilege of breaking hard
stones, in a cold, muddy yard attached
to the parish workhonse, for the reward
of three-pence and q loaf of bread.

The Plain. md the we.teru Trader.

= ~
Mr.. Hepworth Diyon's work on "New
America" has the following passage:
"By daring ingenuity and patience,
the western trader has pushed o way
for himself across this difficult trail of
land; making an opening for trade and
travel between the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans. He has done this feat as 4 pri-
vate man, without help from the State,
without cheers from any learned body,
at a cost of blood and money which can
never be counted upon earth; and for
this reason: the western man thinks
nothing of blood, not much of treasure,
when he regards them as being invested
in Il business that will pay. Holding
his life in his hand, this reckless, jovial
fellow, swearing over much, trimming
with help when help is of use, is care
less of blood-either his own or yours
far beyond an Arab, almost beyond a
Chinese. This path through the prairie
has been paved by him, again and again,
with bones; but the trace of his pas
sage, of his suffering, dies away ont OF
sight with the autunnal flowers. Ma,
ture is here too strong for nan to dc
more than throw a trail upon her land
scape, which may show itself for a day
i'll the bunch-srass, among the gray
sand, and then vanish from sight like
the track of = ship at sea. The prairie
is not mans home. Even if he had time
to plant and reap it, he could hardly
grow q blade OF grass, n stalk of Indian
corn, on those open flats, where myriads
of locusts ~clatter through the air, de-
vouring in their hunger every green leaf

The suicide of two young lovers at

from his revolver, and the pair were
