Itssten the lily she gave me
Low on my worshipping breast,
Ny senses are drinking its perfume
And losing their aching unrest.
And dream whilst iahailing its odor,
That her voice 10 thrilling my heart,
Filling my life with a splendor.
TIL her love and her lilies depart.
Al. then. u that time should arrive,
And lose both lilies and love,
will pray that the father in heaven
Shall reach from his bright throne above
And take me, too. where the gardens
Etern&lly blossom and bear,
Where shall find my white lily
And love awaiting me there.
Oh, lily, whose marvellous sweetness
Is pure as her lily white soul,
love you because you are Ike her,
Who holds me in sweetest control.

rate of six miles an hour. The outlines Of its
pathway were 50 well defined that five feet

iects could be seen. In fact, the outlines Of the
path of destruction were almost as clearly

Fortunately, no house stoodin the tornado's
line Of march. 1t passed between farm
house and barn. but escaped both. Its on
ward march was so slow that man or beast,
if in its way, could easily escape. The pro-
gressive motion Of the tornado is usually at
the rate of thirty to sixty miles an hour the
fact of this one moving at the rate Of six miles
an hour was most singular. The path of a
tornado is usually quarter or half mile in
width; this one was but twenty to eighty
feet in width. This is another unusual fea-
ture.
We have here twigs from the hedge where
the tornado passed, and tufts of grass taken
from its path. They and every living green
thing in its course withered away FROM the
effects of the tornado as quickly and COM
pletely as did the barren fig tree when the
Masters curse descended upon it.

Oh, do not grieve when I am gone,
But heart and soul prepare,
To meet me when God calls you hence
There'll be no parting there.

RAILROADS.
kOVemeats, Schemes and Combinations Of
RalIrOad.heR in kentucky,

CINCINNATI, July 20.-About threS
months ago, a railroad company was
organized here known as the Ken
tucky and Great Eastern, with Colonel
s. w. Morton, of New York, as presi-
dent and A. ]. Hsdden as vice presi,
dent, and, besides these, as directors,
General Fremont, General Banks,
Massachusetts; Judge Golfer, Mari
ecta; J. NJ. Duke, Maysville; James
7. Brady, Pittsburg.
This was Ostensibly to construct q
railroad from Cincinnati to Cattells-
burg, KY, under q charter granted
by the Kentucky Legislature last
year. This did not then attract much
attention. 1t now appears that it was
bat q small part OF the purpose. Their
real plan was to build another rail.
road from Cincinnati to New York
city, through Kentucky and across
West Virginia, to the Point Of Rocks,
Virginia; thence by the roads now
cOnctructing through York and Read.
ing, Pennsylvania, TO the eastern ter
minus. 1t is stated that the compa-
ny has purchased franchise and prop
elfy at Maysville for the Big Sandy
railroad, which is to become part
OF the line.
Those interested claim that this
will be one hundred and twenty miles
shorter from Cincinnati to New York
than the route by the Pennsylvania
Central, the shortest existing line,
and in equaling distances by reason
OF curves and grades, little less than
two hundred miles shorter.
1t is announced that the work will
be commenced ln Kentucky within
three months, and that the line to
New York will be finished in less
than three years. 1t appears that the
same parties are interested in the new
movement to finish the old tunnel
partly constructed through the hills
north of the city, the contract for
which has doubtless been made, this
part of the project being intended to
furnish northwestern connections.

ENGLAND
The Purchase of Commissions Question
Snmmarily Disposed Of-Conster-
nation Of the Tories.

LONDON, July 20.-In the House o
| Commons, this evening, Mr.. Glad
stone announced that the Queen haC
solved the purchase problem by can.
ceiling Ethe royal warrant legalizing
the purchase of commissions in the
army. He declared that the House O
Lords, although impugning the Gov
eminent plan for its abolition, had
failed to sustain the purchase system
hence the ministers had advised Her
Majesty to take action which effectu.
ally disposed of the question in &C.
cOrdance with the manifest will OF the
country.
This declaration was received with
vehement cheering in the House, but
DisraeIi, and the Tory members gen
orally, were unable to dissemble their
anger and bitterly denounced the ar
bitrary course of the Government.
Mr.. Gladstone was defiant and
challenged the opposition to move a
vote of want of confidence.
Earl Granville, in the House OF
Lords, announced the determination
of the ministry and defended their
policy. 1t is impossible to depict the
scene in either House on the an
nouncement of the fate of the pur-
OIIurs5 5.y5t~---- MI H. -a--r
ly moved, but decOrOus in their de-
monstratiOns.
In the House of Commons, the as
tonishment, anger and uncertainty
were i'll concealed. The Tories were
cOnfOunded and their leaders puzzled
to suggest what action should be
taken at an event which they were
hardly prepared for, Notwithstanding
the obscure fOreshadowings in the
Standard of yesterday and to-day.
The opinion is that the action of the
ministry is bold, and even desperate,
and popular feeling is led to aDtici-
pate far reaching consequences in a
democratic sense.
