An instance of the ruling passion strong in
death occurred at Shreveport, La, some years
ago. A man whose name it is needless to
mention, had become infatuated with gamb-
ling though not professional sport. He was
taken sick, and for several days before his
death imagined that be was playing cards.
Not long before the closing scene, in one of
these imaginary games. he held his hand close
10 his bosom and called cut excitedly: ''Betl
whv don't Won bet round there" His wife
remarked INV dear there is nobody het-
t;np.u "Well. then. was the instant reply.
.I'II take the pot, reaching out his hand
and drawing down an imaginary stake.

Within few miles Of Sonors and Within
sound Of her solemn Church bells, in wes-
terly direction and beyond Table Mountain
lies fair land, which when viewed from the
nights of that rugged upheaval, by one imbu-
ed with poetic feelingsreveals thousand beau
ties. Far below, .theimaginsry beholder sees
as map outstretehed at his feet, Utopiau
Paradise, surrounded, sheltered and guarded
by towering mountains, whose glistening
peaks soar far above the golden clouds Of sun
set, and whose jagged rents wherever they
reveal the deep blue beyond, appear as the
heavenly gates Of PEARL" As bis eye in
fine frenzy rolling, revels over this fair scene,
ittakes in the rolling bills, the meandering
and murmuring streams, the fowery wales
and the feeding ieecy Aocks, and as the cool
south wind fans his cheek and signs through
pines, it comes loaded with the perfume Of
violets, the hum of bees, the inusic of falling
water, the tinkling Of bells and the voices OF
happy children, and as he listens he sinks
upon the breast of his Mother Earth-and
dreams of land where there is no ''war,
death and Wounds" but of world where
there is naught but pence and joy.
THE INEBRIATR.
But how different oh | how awful, aud oh
how appalling it appears to one who has
snakes in his boots and whisky in his stom-
ach. For he beholds instead of redeeming
heaven, direful hell, one bounded on all
sides by rolling pillows Of fire, with great vol
canos forever spouting sulphur, coal, pitch,
camphine, nitro glycerins, Chinese 6re-erack-
ere and hot whisky. upon the devoted heads
ola host of old topers mounted upon squads
of bucking mustangs, and commanded aud
fed by unfaithful and warlike blood and thun-
der parsons, seated upon fery-eyed, high
leaping Kangaroos, who are ever securing
over the sulphurous plains in search of smear
case and lager to cool their burning throats,
and as his eye drinks in those unearthly hor-
rors his soul reels within him, and as he
stands swaying like .endulum in the breeze
his fear overcomes him, and he either fees
backto Sonora, or seeks the friendly shelter
Of the adjoining brush.
THE NATURAL.
But how different, how far more real and
how much pleasanter is the view to one in
possession of his senses, and how truly thank
full one should be that he neither has the
eyes, ears or nose of poet, or the distorted
vision of one laboring under the seductive
influence of tarantula juice, for as he stands
and gazes he only beholds whata pig might
