Winter Scenes.

The shores are ico-bound, but beyond the blue
Les soft and lovely meath the wintly sky
Aud white sails come and go. and birds glance
through
The crystal air, low STOPPING IA they fly,
All their white bosoms brush the feathory foam
That flock the pillows Of their ocean home.
Der icc-b bound fields the little snow birds sweep
Calling each other through the frosty air.
Then plunging into thickets dark and deep,
winch the sun never pierccs with its glare
Deep shades below, above the cloudloss skies,
Tr"ough which the ftful wind now Hwolls, now
dies.
Long after fields are bare, the snow. wroaths lie
Under green hedges, where the warm sun'h
beams
Dropped from the clear and cloudlces winter
sky,
In vain across their sparkling surface CLEANS
Beneath them sleep the violet and the train
or wildwood flowers that bide the April rain.
Each in its order beautiful and grand
Spring with its promise, summer Ike queen
Ful-robcd in state, bearing within her hand
A flowor-wreathed sceptre, twined with freshest
green
That only fades when Autumn's voice il heard
In falling leaf and fast-rctreating bird
God Of the Seasons may each grateful heart
Learn new song 81 praise NJ seasons roll,
Trustful and hopeful still, though joys depart
And sorrows life's once sunlit hours control:
The land beyond holds soacc for all grief,
Perennial Spring, no faded flower or leaf.

Another ErIghtfNl Disaster.

The steamer 4. L. McGill, from ST.
Louis for New.Orleans, was burned on
Shoo-Fly" Bar The fire broke out
aft. Owing to n gale prevailing the
flames spread rapidly, aud the passen-
gers had barely time 10 rush TO the bow
and plunge into the water before the
fire was upon them. The weather was
intensely cold, and many who plunged
into the river were chilled and sunk to
rise no more. The boat had been
aground for two days, and had unloaded
900 tuns of her freight in order to get
over the bar. She was ladcn with 800
tuns of general merchandise, including
pork and coal oil. just as the passcn
gers were preparing TO retire, an alarm
of fire was raised, and n general stampede
cnsued The steamers 1t. Francis and
Ann White which had passed her, were
several miles above, but seeing the fire,
turned back and arrived in time to zen
der valuable assistance.
So confused and contradictory are
the reports, it is impossible to give IN
accurate estimate of the number OF per
sons lost, but i; is probable that 30 of
those on board the steamer when the
flames were first discovered are now
dead, and that The number includes four
women and three children. Thomas +.
Evans, barber, of St. Louis, died soon
after he was placed on board the st.
Louis, from wounds ard exposure.
In addition TO Capt Tompkins and
VIM. Mcfarland, the first clerk, who
are supposed to be lost n German and
his wife are missing; also, carpenter
from ST. Louis, who was bound for
Groenvillc, Miss, two woman, three
children, the colored chambclmaid, and
Philip Lock of Philadelphia, Penn.
Mr. Everett of st. Louis, who came
down on the st. Francis, says thata man
and his wife, who were cabin passengers,
foated past them, holding on to the
stage plank. As they went by with the
current the woman said to her husband
Il am freczing-lcts die together She
then let go the plank, and her husband
grasped her, but he was too exhausted
to maintain her above the water, and
both sunk, locked in each others EN-
brace. Charles Hazlette, bookkeeper,
was the last to leave the boat He Jump
ed on a cotton bale, and the wind blew
him ashore. The passengers and crew
lost everything. Only one hundred
tuns of freight we're taken Off

An Attempt TO Escape.

The 1AgemeiRe Zeih09 states that the
French prisoners at Cologne, Coblcntz
and Mayence, numbering $4,000, plotted
an outbreak on the night Of Christmas
Day. They proposed to fall on their
few guards at "A given signal, disarm
and kill them md then, scattering fire
and sword on their way. hasten to the
French frontier, where they calculated
on assistance, especially in Alsace. The
military and police authorities had how
ever a timely warning, and on the oath
brought up considerable reiniorcements
of infantry and artillery. At Cologne
10000 troops were posted in the bar
ricls, ready to march out at the first
beat of the drum. No outbreak, how
ever, was attempted Many of the
prisoners had previously asked whether
they should be allowed to receive Christ
mas presents from France, and. being
answered in the Affirmative, boxes con-
tanning in some cases, weapons, were
forwarded to them These of course,
were confscated. At Coblentz a chest
arrived, addressed to French officer,
which proved to contain five siX.larrcl-
ed revolvers and dagger, concealed IN
a. Of clothing The defiant lie
m,...o1 of the officers is strongly COM
planned of, and 800 of them have con-
sequently been removed from W.esbad-
en- to the eastern provinces, where they
will be subjected to stricter supervision,
and will of course be further from the
French frontier. On the 10Th two ofli-
GERS escaped from Dusseldorf, and
number of Mobiles recently attempted
to escape from the Saxon fortress Of
having constructed n rope
ont of towels. They were, however,
detected in the act. 1t is said the pris-

AN AMUSING STORY is told by sailor
who. IN a recent combat, had the luck to
capture Prussian subaltern. On the
road to Paris the latter asked his captor,
who had been chatting him numerically
on the length of time the Prussians took
to reduce the city, Glow do you fare in
your capital q " How do we fare why,
first rate" was the reply. "Then your
oxen are not yet exhausted, as we mag
ined they were ?" % Oxen oh; they
have been eaten long since" You
have large hocks of sheep, then q " No,
indeed, they disappeared simultaneously
with the bullocks. "Ah understand;
you have still your horses to fall back
on ?" 81 wish we had f; we devoured them
long since" "What do you eat, then ?"
was the astonished inquiry. "What do
we eat ~ replied the sailor, with the
greatest gravity in the world "have you
not heard in your camp ?" "No." "Why,
we eat our prisoners, of course, and find
them delicious The young Prussian
turned pale at the thought, and did not
venture another remark till his arrival at
his destination.

officers ont in the front There was one
man on white horse, it might have
been Ducrot himself, who was ubiqui-
tous-now cantering right on beyond
everything, now wheeling and hating,
as if making n speech to encourage the
advance They came on very steadily
for about quarter of mile, then they
slowly, and finally halted. The officer
on the white horse seemed to go frantic;
he dashed hither and thither with des-
perate energy. Once or twice he lode
right into one battalion, then came
securing round the rear, no doubt to
stay the failing off. But all was of no
use. He could not get his fellows
steam up. A few shells came flying over

There was one sharp bicker of musketry
