GOING AND COMING.
By EDWARD A. JENKs.

GoISG-the great round Sun.
Dragging the captive Day
Over behind the frowning hill,
Over beyond the bay
Dying:
Coming-the dusky Night,
Silently stealing in,
Gloomily draping the soft, warm couch
Where the golden-haired Day had been
Lying
Going-the bright. blithe Spring:
blossoms, how fast yc fall.
Shooting out of your starry sky
Into the darkness all
Blindly,
Coming-the mellow days;
Crimson and yellow leaves;
Lansushing purple and amber fruits
Kissing the bearded sheaves
Kindly!
Going-our early friends;
Voices We loved are dumb.
Footsteps grow dim in the morning dew;
Fainter the echoes come
Ringing:
Coming to join our march
Shoulder to shoulder pressed:
Gray-haired veterans strike their tents
For the far-Of purple West
Singing!
Coing-this old. old life:
Beautiful world farewell!
Forest and meadow river and hill!
Ring We loving knell
Ger usi
Coming-a nobler life;
Coming-a better land:
COming--the long. long. nightless day;
Coming-the grand, grand
Chorus. -Hearth and Home.

A Good Game.

THERE is simple but extremely enter
tanning play to which our young folks have
given the name of Terbayium, and which
has had a remarkable effect within our OBJ
servatiOn in stimulating the faculty of
language in many somewhat sluggish
brains. 1t is true, and will be seen present
ly, that in this play words are associated
by means of their spelling merely, while
in speaking or writing we require them to
obey the association Of ideas; but the great
point is gained when we have become
thoroughly familiar with the words them
selves, their looks, their sound, and their
meaning; and cer6arium is to the word
student what herbdriu9a is to the bOtanist
A number of pcrsOns-the more the mer-
rier-are provided with pencils and paper
and word chosen as the c8rbqriuH, which
each writes at the head of his sheet The
object of the game is to draw out the vast
number of words which lie folded up as it
were, in the cer5arium, and this is accom-
plished, amid much excitement and amuse-
ment, in the following manner: Let us
suppose, for instance, that the word chosen
is Treason. One of the company is ap-
pointed time keeper; and the signal being
given, each writes as rapidly as possible
all the words beginning with L which
can be spelled with the letters of the
rerbarium At the end of two minutes the
time keeper calls "Time y and the eager
pencils are obliged to stop. The
company then read, in order the
words they have written. As each word
is read, those who have not written it call
out NO." and those who have ii cross it
out from their lists, and place opposite to
it number of credits, equal to the num-
Der of defaulters. If three persons, for
| instance, fail to have the word Tea, the
rest take three credits. Two minutes are
then devoted to words beginning with II,
and so on, until the whole ceT6arium is ex-
hausted, when each player counts the ag
gregate number of his credits, and he who
has the largest number is declared the
winner The possibilities of fun in this
game do not all appear from a dry descrip-
ton like the foregoing. The lamentations
of those who, in their Jealous pursuit in
| complicated anagrams have overlooked
| the simplest combination; the shouts of
| laughter that attend the defeat of an at
tempt TO impose triumphantly some word
that " isn't i'm it :" the appeals to the Die
| tiOnary to settle the disputed question, and
| a hundred other lively incidents of the
game, render it one of the most popular
with old and young that have ever been
| introduced into the parlor. Try rerbdriun1
in your family, and you will find it intalli-
bly, successful as means of amusement,
while it is, as we have pointed out, highly
useful. Builder.

THEY say, in Berlin, that King William
is always under the influence of strong
doses of morphine when he appears on
parade, or on other public occasions.

AN English paper states that out of
twelve jurymen who decided upon the
merits of case heard at the recent Meri-
onethshire assises, only four could speak
or understand English. The evidence was
given in English, the counsel spoke in
English, and his lordship's charge was
given in English also. And eight of the
jurymen understood not IA word! Upon
the four who did, devolved the unpleasant
duty of explaining the facts of the case
and making clear to their fellows what was
before dark. No wonder they were some
time in arriving at verdict, and that the
four English speaking jurymen vowed
they "never had such a job to tackle
atore"

Lyepairs, y - an = -
Your attention is called to the con-
dition of our market-house. You
must all know that 1T isa dilapidate d
wreck, SO situated as to be an obstruc.
ton to 1st Cross street, and nuisance
to the neighborhood. This is sub
ject that has agitated the minds o.
our citizens for some years, and many
If not all of them, expect the removal
of the old market-house and new
one built in some other part of the
city better suited to this purpose. :
Probably this could be consummatet
by private enterprise, making it a de-
sirable investment for capital by issu'
ing share certificates, or by. subscrip'
tions of property-owners interested
where the new market-house would
be erected. This should be taken in
hand at once. 1 therefore recommend
that you appoint n committee to can,
vass this thoroughly and report the
most feasible plan at an early day; Il
possible, at the next meeting.
I wish to say few words in regard
to public schools, the beacon light 81
an intelligent age. They should re.
ceive our hearty support when it can
be made available. Schooling facili-
ties will encourage immigration of q
good class of people, and if we desire
immigration, we must lay aside pref
udice to certain extent and study
the workings of other localities. Set
tiers will not come among us If we
can not offer the same advantages
found elsewhere. He who inquiries
for our school facilities is good citi-
zen elsewhere, and would make a
good citizen here, if we could insure
his coming by satisfactory answers to
his questions. flour means are small
we should cooperate with the School
Boards in any good measure which
would require our assistance.
HENRY FRECH, Mayor.
a resolution in reference to wood
wagons to be stationed on the Square
was referred to street committee.
A resolution in reference to moving
the market-house was received and
referred to a select committee.
The street committee were instruct
ed to receive proposals for metal to
repair the different streets, and to re-
port what streets need repairs.
The Mayor was authorized to confer
with the County Judge to see what
can be done in regard to establishing
a work-house.
1t was ordered that hereafter the
Recorder shall collect from the parties
giving bonds 81, and receiving license
so cents.
The bond of w. p. Hume, Treas
urer, was received and approved.
SD. Power was installed into the
Office of Recorder, but this action is
not to interfere with contesting the
election, which is set for hearing to-
morrow week at two o'clock.
We here take occasion to say that
we were well pleased with the digni-
fled demeanor of the Mayor, Mr..
Frech, and express the belief that in
the discharge of his official duties he
will give general satisfaction to our
citizens. ... .... ... -.
