A Reyerie and a Song.

When do sit apart
And commune with my heart,
She brings me forth the treasure once my own;
Shows me happy place
Where leaf-buds swelled apace,
And wasting rims of SNOW in sunlight shown.
Rock, in messy glade,
The larch trees lend the shade,
That lust begins to feather with their leaves;
From out thy crevice deep
White tufts of snowdrops peep,
And melted rime drips softly from thine caves.
All. rock, know, know,
That yet thy sundrops grow,
And yet doth sunshine feck them through tn
tree,
Whose sheltering branches hide
The cottage at its side,
They never more will shade or shelter me.
know the stockdoves' note
Athwart the glen doth float:
With sweet foreknowIedge of her twins Oppressed
And longings onward sent,
She broods before the event,
While Ieisurely she mends her shallow nest.
Once to that cottage door,
In happy days of yore, -.
NV little dove made footprints in the STOW.
She was so glad of Spring,
She helped the birds to sing,
l know she dwells there yet-the rest L do no
know.
They sang, and would not stop,
While drop, and drop, and drop,
I heard the melted rime in the sunshine fall;
And marrow wandering rills,
Where leaned the daffodils,
Murmured and murmured on, and that was all
1 think, but cannot tell,
think she loved me well,
And some dear fancy with my future twined.
But shall never know,
Hope faints and lets it go,
That passionate want forbid to speak its mind.
She was but child,
And L man grown;
Sweet she was, and fresh and wild,
And, I thought, my own.
What could do? The long grass groweth,
The long wave foweth with murmur on;
The why and the wherefore Of it all who knoweth!
Ere 1 thought to lose her she was grown and
gone.
This day or that day in warm Spring weather,
The lamb that was tame will yearn to break its
tether,
"But if the world wound thee" said, ''come
back to me,
Down in the dell wishing wishing wishing fOI
thee"
The dews hang on the white may.
Like ghost as il stands
All in the dusk before day,
That folds the dim lands.
Dark fell the skies when once belated,
Sad, and sorrow fated, missed the sun;
But wake, heart, and sing, for not in vain
waited.
o clear, o solemn dawning, the maid is won
Sweet dews, dry early on the grass and clover,
Lest the bride wet her feet while she walks over
Shine TO day, sunbeams, and make all fair 70 see

The address of Judge Barrett was
followed by poem before the societies by
DR.. G.. Nelson Brigham of Montpelier.
At o'clock p. m, Review and In
spection, Infantry and Artillery drill,
dress parade, and firing salute, came off
at the University grounds, which was
performed in an admirable manner, indi-
eating the thorough and strict military
instruction impaired by Capt Curtis, the
Professor of Military Science
AT 3 o'clock also a meeting of the
Board of Trustees, to consider the con-
dition and prospects of the University,
was held at the residence of President
Howard. 1t was the largest and most
enthusiastic meeting of the Board held for
many years. There were present Bishop
Bissell, Hon. Timothy P. Redfeld, Hon.
Dudley G. Denison, Rev. DR.. Bournes,
Col Fl. o. Kent, Rev. DR.. Douglass, Hon.
Charles Dewey, Rev. DR.. Sweat, Hon.
George Nichols, Perley Belknap, DIR. P.
D. Bradford, Charles Clement, Henry
Clark. L. G. Kingsley and julius E.
Higgins. The condition of the Univer-
sity was fully discussed, and arrange
ments made for the coming year. A
series of resolutions were presented from
the Alumni, pledging hearty support to
the faculty and Board of Trust in putting
the institution upon firm foundation
and securing its prosperity.
Much credit is due tie Pres. Howard,
George Nichols, Perley Belknap and DIR.
P. D. Bradford, for the deep interest they
have taken in promoting the prosperity of
the University. The prospects for the
future are more encouraging, and a large
number of students will present them
selves for admission at the opening of the
full term. The people of Mortified
manifested kind good will toward the
institution, which augers well for its
future.

THE CURRENCY BILL.-The currency
bill is law. The President has approved
it. An initiation of $10,OO0,OOO will not
in and of itself effect much change, but
the precedent is bad as can be. If this
policy of 'dectoring" our currency is per-
sisted in, we cannot hope to reach specie
payments. But we shall reach disas-
trous crisis as surely as bubbles burst.
Natural law will in good time assert it.

followed in group. In the first quarter
the dust was so great that the horses could
not be placed. Duke led almost through

THE THIRD RACE
Was three-quarter dash for purse OF
$400. There were thirteen entries, and
all made an appearance. In the pools,
O'Fallon's Alta Vela was the favorite.
The horses and riders presented gay pic
ture, the gaily decorated costumes of the
riders showing off with great advantage.
Six false starts were made before good
one was obtained. The horses started off
all together, several leading. A great
cloud of dust obscured the animals from
view, and at this place an accident of a
serious nature occurred. r. w. Walden's
Metairie stepped in hole which was COW
cred by thin crust, and slid on the
ground for a distance of several rods.
The rider was thrown violently to the
ground, and both horse and rider were
trampled upon by the rear racers.
The back of the horse was broken by the
shock, and the owner ordered that he be
killed. The rider was named Wilson, and
resided in Ohio. One of his ribs was bro
ken and penetrated his lungs. 1t is
thought that he cannot survive his inju-
ries. AS the home stretch was entered, the
coursers were together, but Morris gray
FLY took the front, closely pressed by the
favorite and Pennock's colt. As they near
ed the judges stand, handkerchiefs were
waved and great applause was elected by
the contest. AS the FLY crossed the score
neck ahead, the victory was greeted with
loud cheers.

INCIDENTS.
Kingfsher, the winner of the Travers
stakes yesterday, was sold last night to
Mr.. Belmont, the price being $4,000.
Hamburg, the favorite for one of the
races tomorrow, ran away on the training
track this morning, and ran around three
times. 1t is said that he made one mile
in IA.
John Morrissey stands at the entrance
and confronts known thieves and pick
pockets. Yesterday one came to the gate
and Mr.. Morrissey ordered him away.
The rough became surly and drew a
pistol. He finally withdrew in time to
escape Commandment from the fists of
Mr.. Morrissey.
There was singular view from the
grand stand, visible, however, with
glasses only. One of the neighboring
farmers had erected a neat seat in a tree
upon his premises. The seat was filled
with seven or eight women and children,
who were snugly esconced in the shade
fifty feet from the ground.

THE SCnoGPPE CASE IN A New AS
PEcT.-The SchoGppe case has made its
appearance in a new shape. A bill has
passed the Pennsylvania State Senate which
allows writs of error in cases of murder
and voluntary manslaughter, not only
where such cases may hereafter be taken
to the Supreme Court, but in cases now
pending in that tribunal. The bill further
proposes that the Supreme Court may not
only review the law of the case, which is
all that has hitherto been done by that tri-
bun al on writs of error, bnt that the evil
dence may be considered and the court
may determine whether there were
sufficient facts in the testimony to author
ize verdict of murder in the first degree,
and if the court should be of opinion that
the judgment was not justified by the evil
dence, it may reverse the decision of the
court below and send back the case for a
new trial.-jSun.
