The daily circulation of our paper-to

TWO YOUNG MEN.

Two young men, when was poor, .
Came and stood at my open door; .
One said to me, {" have gold to gtve!"
And one, Il will love you while livsl"
Ny sight was dazzled; woes tho day:
Aud sent the poor young man away;
Gent him away. I know not where,
And my heart went with him-unawaro.
He did not give me any sighs, | 49,.
But he left his picture in my eyes;
And In my eyes it has always BEEN
have no heart to keep it in.
Beside the lane with hedges sweet,
Where we parted ne'er more to meet,
IN pulled flower Of loves own hue.
And where 1t had been came out twti
And In the grass where he stood, for years
The dews Of the morning looked like tears.
still smiles tho 1ouse where was born,
Among its fields Of wheat and corn,
Wheat and corn that strangers bind
reap a. sowed and I sowed to the wind
AZ one who feels the truth break through
70 His dream, and knows hts dream untrue.
Hive where splendors shine, and sigh .
For the peace that splsndor cannot buy-
Sigh for the day was rich, though poor.
And saw the two young men at my door.

lady Clerks.
A "Michigander,' now on visit to Bos-
ton, in communication to the Trans-
cript, thinks that before the right of suf-
frage 10 conferred upon women, large
class of them who attend in shops and
stores need considerable training in one Of
the political arts-that of POliteness. lie
says : "They act, in too many eases, "
if nobody we're worth attending to cxcept
manageable young men. One day last
week I went with my wife to over twenty
dry goods and trimming storos to match
certain colors. In a majority of cases va
were treated uncivilly, and sometimes with
downright rudeness. The following ILL
treatment-as We should call i'll saw in
dicted upon her by women clerks Three

funny passage, three minutes after she was
spoken to and one, on word being said
as to the quality of ribbon, declared that
8 if dollar had been asked it would have
been all right Now, if some of these
women clerks had been young men, l
should have jcrked them over their coun-
ters and pulled their noses and cuffed their
ears, after the style of correcting saucy
boys and girls thirty years ago. But, as
they belonged to the gentleHt!) sex, my
self and wife choked downe6ur vexation
and walked off in search Of polite attend
ants in retail stores."

A New MINERAL.-There has recently
been discovered in Borneo new mineral.
mixed with the platinum found in that re-
gion. 1t forms small grains or globules Of
dark black-gray color, and of considera-
BILE lustre. Many of these grains exhibit
brilliant crystalline facets, which are the
faces of regular octohedion, The new
mineral is very hard and brittle. It does
not fuse before the blow pipe, but diffuses
strong oder Of sulphurous acid. Ii is to
be called Sulphats Of Rutheneum.

| women IN Europe.
With great, pride and satisfaction, We
reflect upon the fact that our fair country.
women are creating decided sensation in
London and Paris. In the latter capital,
especially, do American bellies achieve their
most decided successes. 1t would seem as
though the young bloods of France have
all determined to wed American women,
and as the latter seem, like BARKIs, quite
willing, we shall have no end of titled peo-
pie hailing from this side of the Atlantic
1t is remarked upon, somewhat sarcastical-
~ in Paris, that the matrimonially inclin-
ed beaus invariably select our wealthy
young ladies. So much the better for the
young men in question, who thus secure
beauty and booty. As regards the founda-
ton of this report, we may, en- passant, no.
tice that it is of the slightest. As none
but comparatively wealthy have the taste
and desire to habit Paris or London, nat
urally enough the choice of the wife-seeker
is restricted to these wealthy parties, hence
the charge that these suit0rs are mercena-
ry is not strictly applicable.
On the other hand, sneers are levelled at
our bellies, who, being from the 'Great
Republic" seem yet 30 willing to ally
themselves with nobility. As these unfa-
vorable comments proceed from the ieal-
Gus mammas and neglected daug ghters, who
ARE passed over that our beautiful girls
may be won, we may afford to laugh at
these ebullitions Of ill-will, and rejoice in
the fact that our women take so prominent
a stand in the gay and brilliant capital of
the world. rs
For some years past the most beautiful
women in Paris, as per almost universal
consent, have been Americans. And we
may well feel proud of this for in the sa-
looms of the grande mode of that attractive
city, the elegant, the refined, and lovely
women Of civilization congregate. To bear
Oft the palm in so great an assemblage is
indeed glory enough and we repeat that,
as Americans, we feel the livelest gratif-
cation in this acknowledged fact.
Then, in the fine arts, our cOuntrywo-
men rank worthily. In music our PArrI
is unriyalle4 in sculpture We have Miss
STEBBINs, who is recognized in Europe as
an artist Of the most decided talent, in
short, our women are making for them
selves honor and renown in the old world,
where all careers are so overcrowded and
where nOught save the most decided merit
and talent can obtain foothold. This be-
ing the case, We rejoice in their success,
and feel assured that all those who assume
high estate among the nobility of Europe

Rev. DR.. Todd, of Pitts6eld, says, that
the root Of the great error Of our day is,
that women, is to be made independent and
selfsupporting precisely what she never
can be, because God never designed she
should be. Her support, her dignity, her
beauty, her honor and happiness, lie in
her dependence a. wife, mother, and
daughter.

:" Pictured Rocks Again"
BRowN, of the Prairie dl Chen Union,
under this caption, alludes very prettily
and truly to the Picnic Ground, two miles
below McCregor
In spite of McGregor's fear that these
rocks will be carried away, party of thir-
ty went over from here on last Saturday.
The day was charming, the company agree
able, and three or four hours were spent so
pleasantly as not to be soon forgottcn.-
Reader, if you would know the worth of
a days recreation, and would commune
with nature, would forget your cares, and
lifes vexationsS on some fine morning with
your bread and dinner in basket, 20 on the
City Of Nc Gregor, over to this enchanted
ground, and we warrant you will never re-
gret it. From the rocks climb the hills
above them to the beautiful cascade-a
miniature Minnehaha, bu.in much more
romantic and wild spot, then. step out to
tho brow of the bluff and witness, free of
charge, enc Of the finest landscapes that
the Eternal ever drew two noble rivers
form junction in the foreground the
silvery waters moving gently among the
hundred islands the town set like gem
on the prairie; the slow raft, and the swift
steamer on the bosom of the Mississippi,
while as background to this whole pic
,ture, stands the everlasting bluffs, whose
rocks are hoary with age while their tops
are crowned with groves and verdure. As
one contemplates this lovely scene he can
not wonder that the red man fought to re-
tain his hunting grounds and the graves of
his fathers. But we must stop writing in
this strain as we do not know what we
might be inspired to say. All who parti-
cipated in that days labors were alike
gratified and pleased, and to many of them
in other years and lands, the memory of it
will come like pleasant dream.
