POETICAL.
FATHER, TAKE MY HAND.

The way is dark, my Father, Cloud on clou
Is gathering thickIy DER my head, and loud
The thundeTs roar above me. See, stand
Like one bewilderedi Father, take my han1
And through the gloom
Lead safely home
Thy child.
The day goes fast my Father! And the night
Is drawing daTlily down. My faithless sight
Sees ghostly visions. Fears, "a spectral band,
Encompass me. %, Father, take my hand,
And from the night
Lead up to light
Thy child.
The way is long my Father, And my soul
Longs for the rest and quiet of the goal;
While Yet journey through the weary land
Keep me from wand1ng. Father, take my hand
Quickly and straight
Lead 10 Heavens gate
Thy child.
The path is rough, my Father! Many a thorn
Has pierced me, and my weary feet all torn
And bleeding, mark tn way. Yet thy command
Bids Inc press forward. Father, take my hand
Then, safe and blest,
Lead me 10 rest,
Thy child.
The thorn is great, my Father, Many doubt
And fear and danger compass me about
And foes Oppress Inc and cannot stand,
Or go alone. o, Father, take my hand,
And through the throng
Lead safe along
Thy child.
The cross is heavy, Father! / have borne
Ii long and still do bear it. Let my worn
And fainting spirit rise TO that blest land
Where crowns are given. Father, take my hand
And reaching down,
Lead safe to the crown
Thy child

In Trumbull county, Ohio, Betsy
Sloan, aged sixty, has sued rich
farmer named Pendergrast for breach
of promise. She worked three years
for him for nothing, expecting to be
his bride, but the volatile old fellow
went off to Pennsylvania and mar
ried a dashing young widow. Betsy
thinks $4,000 will reconstruct her
shattered feelings.

chance of escape, but just then tho't'
of loved ones ut home dashed through
his mind, and nerved him 10 desper
1 alton. In twinkling, he weighed
in the balances Of his mind, the valn,
of two dirty, insulting, ignorant reb
els against his own life and the com,
fort of his dear family, and down
went the last mentioned end of the
scale. Quick as thought, he seized
the gun that stood against the tree
and turned it toward the armed man
At the same instant, the tall reb
brought his gun to bear on the Cap
tain, but it went off quite low and
missed. The Captain then planted
his load i'm the breast of his antago-
mist, who fell dead at his feet. The
other reb then sprang up and drew
Capt. D-'s revolver from his belt,
and, in the scuille, discharged one OF
the barrels. But, before he could
bring the revolver again into use,
Capt. D. struck him blow with
the barrel, which stunned him
somewhat. The gun was broken off
at the lock by the conclusion, but
Capt. D, following up his advan-
tage, dealt one or two more terrible
strokes with the gun barrel, and laid
his enemy at his feet. His victory
was now complete, and rolling the
latter reb over, took his own sword
and revolver, and started again to
make a detOur, so as to get into the
Union lines. In this he was repeat
edly defeated, for every little while.
rebel cavalry would be in sight, and
he would have to change his course.
His back was SO lame that it was
with difficulty that he could travel at
all. At last he came to house, that
of poor Union man, who gave him
shelter and food from Tuesday until
Thursday, when he made his way to
the Regiment again. Once, while he
was at the house of this Union man,
some rebel cavalry came there and
inquired for Yankee soldiers, and the
woman hid the Captain in bed, thus
no doubt saving his life.
The above is but an imperfect
sketch of a matter of fact incident,
related to the writer, this very morn
ng, at Captain D--'s own table.
He is quite reluctant to tell it himself, |
1ut when pressed a little, will do so
llways. however, expressing his re-
,ret at the stern necessity that de
handed the killing of the two rebels. c
captain D is Il deeply pious man,
veil and favorably known for many !,
niles around where he still lives q
fhe injury to his back is a permanent q
me; and as the writer locked at him,
ellecting upon the fearful perlls he
lad endured, and the sacrifices he I
lad made for bis country, he seemed II
he embodiment of the true patriot 8
nd Christian hero.

THE BEAUTIFUL EARTH.

The dew the dropping flower,
And eyes grow bright and watch the light,
OF autumn's opening hour;
But words that breathe of tenderness,
And smiles we know are true,
Are warmer than the summer time,
And brighter than the dew.
1t is not much the world can give,
With all its subtle art;
And gold and gems are not the things
To satisfy the heart;
But, O, if those who cluster round
The altar and the hearth
Have gentle words and loving smiles,
How beautiful is eartht

The two wheeled velocipedes, oil

intended for the male sex only, and
are by far the swiftest machines.
They are usually of wrought iron,
and have pedals or reels attached to
the front and large wheel, and the
working of which, by light move
ment of the feet sgives the requisite
impulse to the vehicle. The saddle
is poised upon a bar iron, suspended
a few inches above the top OF the
fore wheel. The hands rest on a
handle i'm front of the machine, which,
working on a pivot. serves as hal
ancing pole, the equilibrium being
preserved by giving a slight twist TO
this handle. The brake, which at

a vein Of excellent coal, eight feet thick
and extenalng northward, has been struck
Gu The immediate line OF the Kansas paci
fic Railroad, - miles east Of Denver, and
500 miles ives. OF Kansas Guy, This dis
cuvery shows thai workable coal beds of the
Rocky Mountain base extend miles east
wIrj into the great plains and is of great
Importance, both to lie settler and 10 the
railroad. Nearly one fourth OF the entire
operating expenses of the Kansas Pacific
Railroad is for tuci, ard this bids fair to
reduce the cost Of fuel along he whole line
to about one fifth OF the present rates.
