$4,000. another $500, and the total of the
five amounted to $4,000, The fcfgers
had made such perfect imitation Of the

them daily, would have been deceivd, as
was the teller OF the. bank He at once
paid over the amount, but was informed
soon afterwards that the checks were
forgeries. The signature Of the firm were
exact and their banking routine custom
observed; the signature of one of
their five Cashiers being also forgedto each

The Barefoot Boy.

Verses suggested by Prang's Chrome
Of IYhitfter's Barefoot Boy"
There hangs on the wall before me,
Where the sunshine loves to dwell,
A picture, a sweet little picture,
That holds me 10 q SPELL
A boy with sun,browned features,
All dlmpled In childish joy;
And gaze through the tears that blind me,
On this little Barefoot Boy
The eyes arc full of brightness,
And the cheeks so rosily red,
That 1t hardly seems . picture,
But living child instead
A. Child with his brown hands hidden
In the pockets where turks each toy
Which know brought child sh pleasure
To this little Barefoot Boy
And / think, while my tears are dropping
Like rain on my open book,
or my little barefooted darling
That the summoniug angels took;
And sigh for the vanished brightness,
As see each unused toy
That once belonged to my darling,
To my little Barefoot Boy
think of one sad June evening,
When the mournful robins sang,
And up from the gathering shadows
The cry Of the whippoorwili rang;
And think Of the gloomy shadow
That fell on life's brightest joy,
When the angels came in the twilight
For my little 'Earfoot Boy
see by some shadowlese hearthstones
Glad children at merry play;
And think of my life's broad shadow,
And weep, anu turn away;
And Hook At my little picture,
And the face so bright with Joy,
And think that sinless angel
Was once my Barefoot Boy.

Daring last month there was a heavy
falling of in the product of the oil wells
ia Pennsylvania, and only moderate sue
cess was attained in Aa development of
new oil territory. The average production
was l0,153 barrels a day, about 900 barrels
less than the daily average for April. A
new method has been adopted during the
last six months to increase the Weld Of
oil wells. Ii consists in pouring down

1t is announced that Russia, hitherto
one of the largest grain supplying M
tries in the world, has recently entered
the grain markets Of Germany as a pur-
chaser. This unusual circumstance is at
tributed TO the shOr crop in Russia,
arising not from a defective harvest, but
from the result of emancipating the peas
antry. The immense surplus, which here
tOfOre made Russia the granarv of Europe.
~ as produced 10y the large land owners
who worked the serfs up to their full ca
pscity of labor. Thu Serfs are now their
masters and only cultivate enough
grain to supply their " personal wants,
and sometimes not even that quantity.
The area sOwn in wheat is therefore grad
ually decreasing, and provinces which
were large exporters have for
several years been obliged b. import food.
n Government also has been obliged to
purchase and store up large quantities of
grain TO provide against the consequences
of the conduct Of the emancipated serfs.
