For the Newsdealer
Don't Sell the Old Farm.

"Be it weakness-it deserves somo praise
We love the play-place of our early days"
What to us are the over drawn pictures
of Western life
What its broad prairies sleeping in si-
lent beauty far away from our New Eng
land home?
Why do we sigh for the breath of the
orange blossom, and the sunny skies Of the
South?
TO enjoy these we must leave all the
happy associations of childhood and part
forever with the friends of ripper years.
All methihks the charms of nature in
her loveiest moods would possess little
attraction for us, while great longing
for home was ever in our hearts.
We care not TO rejoice in the spirit
which some call enterprise, nor yet for
the wealth of more genial climes. With
the quiet blessing of our own home we are
content, yea, rich.
Then don't sell the old homestead, for,
linked with it, are many tender memo
ries.
Here, in quiet nook, is tree planted
by loved brothers hand, and nurtured
by fathers care. There, yonder, is the
neglected vine, missing our mothers gen.
tie care. The shrubbery which was the
delight of the one sister, has become tau
gled, and the flowers she loved are over
grown with weeds since she, the sweetest
flower, was transplanted to more con-
genial cline.
There, too, is the same old sheltering
roof which protected our infantile inno-
ccnce, not model of architecture, truly,
but none the less dear. Once more we
look into the old familiar rooms: /: every
nook and corner has voice for us. just
there was dear old grandmother's place,

The P0pe's Prayer.

Among the jeux d'esprit to which the
Ecumenical Council has given rise in
Rome, is the following new Pater Noster
handed about among the Americans
Even the Pope, who enjoys joke tho
roughly, it is said, might forgive the man
who uses the license Of ink against him so
blasphemously yet dexterously;
"Our Father who art in the Vatican |.
infalliable be Thy name Thy temporal
sovereignty come Thy will be done in
America as in Ireland Give US this day
our tithes and titles, and forgive us our
trespasses as we give plenary indulgence
to those who pay peniteutly to us: And
lead us not into Ecumenical Councils, but
deliver us from thinking: for Thine is the
crozier, the key, and tho tiara. Rome

A Circus Band iii h Lions Den.

A singular and shocking tragedy mark
cd the progress of circus out in Missouri;
few days ago, when three men met their
death in den of lions and four others
were horribly mangled.
Upon starting out for the season, the
proprietors of circus and mehagerie
mounted the band upon the den of pera
forming Nubian lions, and though repeat
edly warned that the wagon was unsafe,
compelled them to ride there. At last,
as the pageant was passing through the
streets of Middletown, Mo-, the horses,
frightened by the cheering of the rustics,
ran away, and dashing the wagon against
a post, the roof gave way, and the band
was precipitatcd into the den beneath.
For an instant the crowd were paraly-
zed with fear, but for moment only, and
then arose such shrek of agony as was
never heard before. The awful groans Of
terror and agony which arose from the
poor victims who were being torn, lacer-
ated by the frightful monsters below, was
heart-rending and sickening to terrible
degree.
Weapons were procured and the doors
wrenched off, revealing a terrible sight.
Mingled with the brilliant uniforms of the
poor unlortunates lay legs, arms, torn
from their sockets and half devoured,
while the savage brutes glared ferociously
with their sickly, green-colored eyes upon
the petrifed crowd. Prof Charles White
arrived at this moment, and stationing his
men outside, sprang in and began passing
out the dead and wounded when the
mammoth lion, known to showmen as old
Nero, sprang with frightful roar upon
his keeper, fastening his teeth and claws
in his neck and shoulders, lacerating him
in a horrible manner Four revolvers
speedily ended the brute's career, and the
professor completed his task.
The three men killed were mutilated
beyond recognition, and were buried at
once. The four wounded were dreadfully
lacerated, but viii recover.

and there VIC always saw her year after
year until we almost forgot that there
must come time, when her place would
be, as we now see it, vacant and lonely.
There, as of yore, hangs the same old
fashioned mirror which cast its silent re-
Elections upon our baby-charms. The
time-honored clock, too, upon whose ven.
cradle face we first learned to note the
passing hours, still holds up its hands in
silent wonder, at the changes which have
come under its observation.
We 60 back to the years gone by and
are again children. Once more we lister
for the dear voices Of loved ones, for the
morning devotions and the evening song
of praise, but, alas, the silent echoes ii
the halls Of memory are all that remain
to us.
Why, then, should we not cling to the
old place? Every foot Of ground is sa
cred to the memory of footsteps that viii
not come again.
The orange groves of the South may
invite us to luxuriate in their sweetness
California may spread her golden treas
ures before our fancy,-but ever will w
cherish the hallowed spot of our nativity

From the Atlantic for July.
THE ALARM-BELL OF ATRL.
BY II. W. L0NGFELLoW.

At Atri, in Abruzzo, small town
OF ancient Roman date, but scant renown,
One of those little places that have run
Half up the hill, beneath blazing sun,
And then sat down to rest, as il to say,
81 climb no further upward, come what may"
The Re Giovanni, now unknown to fame,
So many monarchs since have borne the name,
Had great bell hung in the market-pl place
Beneath roof, projecting some small space,
By way of shelter from the sun and rain.
Then rode he through the streets with all his
train,
And, with the blast of trumpets loud and long,
Made proclamation, that whenever wrong
Was done to any man, he should bat ring
The great bell in the square, and he, the king,
Would cause the syndic to decide thereon.
Such was the proclamati on Of King John.
How happily the days in Atri sped,
What wrongs were righted. need not here be
said.
Suffice it that, as all things must decay,
The hempen rope at length was worn away.
Unravelled at the end, and strand by strand
Loosened and wasted in the ringers hand,
Till one, who noted this in pas ing by,
Mended the rope with braids of briony,
So that the leave and tendrile of the vine
Hung like votive garland at shrine.
BY chance it happened that in Atri dwelt
knight, with spur on heel and sword in
belt,
Who loved to hunt the wild-boar in the woods,
Who loved his falcons with their crimson
hoods,
Who loved his hounds and horses, and all
sports
And prodigalities of camps and courts;
Loved, or had loved them; for at last, grown
old,
His only passion was the love Of gold.
He sold his horses, sold his hawks and hounds,
Rented his yineyardsand his garden-groundsi
Kept but one steed, his flvorite steed of all,
To starve and shiver in naked stall,
And, day by day, sat brooding in his chair,
Devsing plans how best to hoard and spare
At length he said "What is the use or need
To keep at my own cost this lazy steed,
Eating bis head off in my stables here,
When rents are low and provender is dear
Let him 60 feed upon the public ways;
want him only for the holidays"
So the old steed was turned into the heat
