Farewell 70 May.
Am,ng the falling apple flowers
The mated robins sing;
The hyacinths IRE failing fast
1t is the last Of Sring;
Its sweet last day! "Oh, Why,
Fair maiden May We sigh,
"Wilt thou not linger?" Hush for June
Delays until she goes,
And We must sec the violets fade
Before We pluck . rose.
It's only losing We can win
And giving We can take;
Our pleasures, tarryiug too long.
Our sorest trials make.
The hearts that grieve to lose thee, May,
Would SORROW more to have thee stay.
Farewell, farewell, then, gentle Spring
Cur blessing with thee goes:
Above the whitening violets
We see the opening rose!

"A man disorders his mind. by per-
sistent, excessive drinking, till all its
moral perceptions are perverted aud
confused. In q drunken frenzy, he
iaucics that he is pursued by toes in
tent on taking his lite: SO, rushing ill.,
to the street, he fires five or six shots
from a revolver into tho passing
throng, killing one man and severely
wounding two or three others. Does
this fellows frenzy excuse his homi-
eide? Recorder Hackelts charge
would seem to answer Yes; Law aud
Common Sense say No.
Another has from boyhood steep
cd his soul in Avarice. Selfish by
nature, lie has aggravated his infirmi-
ty by yielding " and noarlshiny it,
until he has become the slave OF his
covetous impulses. A question OF
boundary, or OF loss or damage to be
borne by himself or another, SO inilu.
ences his evil propensity that he loses
all command OF himself, and buries an
ak IN his neighbours BRAN, hardly
knowing what he does, Is he to go
scot tree because he was morally IN.
sane when he perpetrated the Lomi-
eide?
A husband is cursed with a jealous
temper. Though his wife is pure as
snow, and carefully avoids the least
appearance Of evil, he dogs her steps,
Insults her with his vile accusations,
and renders her life one long torture
BY continually brooding on his dis
ordered taucies and nursing his insane
suspicious, he at len tn persuades
himselt that his wife is q wanton,
and, under this persuasion, takes her
lite, or that OF some man whom he
has associated with her in his vile
imaginings. This man is not sane;
ne did not know that be was doing
wrong; but ought he not to have
known it?
We do not dlsbelieve the plea OF
insanity, 80 often set up. On the
contrary. We hold that few criminals
were entirely sane when they perpe-
trated the deeds tina, made them in.
famous. But we nevertheless insist
that they were cuIpable-criminal-
that they had disordered their men
tai faculties by excess, or wrong OF
some kind, aud were therefore re.
sponsible tor their evil deeds. And
We have always understood this to
be the law OF the land.-[N. y. Trib.
