The Old House Far Away.

The wild birds warblc, the silvery rills
Sing cheefny round the spot,
And the peaceful shade of the purple hills
Falls dim on my mothers cot;
It's windows are small, and it's tiatch is
low,
And its ancient walls are gray;
Oh! see it! love it! where eer go
That old house far away.
T .e little clock ticks on the parlor wall,
Recording the, passing hours;
And thepetg geranium grows rank and tall,
Withits bfillisnt scarlet tiowers;,
And the-old Straw chair SO cosy ana low,
Where mother sat knitting all day;
Oh! SEQ is! love it! where er L go.
In that old house far a.2y.
Dear mother! how plainly I see her now
Reclining in that old chair,
Witlnthe sunset resting upon her brow,
That was SO smooth and fair;
With her crfmped border white as snow,
And her once dark hair now gray;
Oh! my. heart is with her where 'er go
In that old house far away.
Not all rhe treasure the world affords,
The riches of land and sea
Not all The wealth Of earths proud lords
Can blot from my memory
Tae roof that sheltered each dear, dear
head,
Aud the humble floor Of clay, :.
Where the foet I love were wont to tread,
In that old house far away.
Taking Things Without Asking.
When I was boy, I was playing
out in the street one winters day
catching rides on sleighs, and it was
great fun. Boys would rather catch
Rides any day than go out regularly
and properly to take a drive. As
was catching on to one sleigh and te
another, somes times having nice
time, and ofttimes getting cut from
q big black whip, ! at last fastened
like barnaele to the side OF
aeHnssymana cutter.
An Old gentleman sat alone on th'
seat. nnd he laaEfd at me rathel
benignantly, as thought, and Meth
er said anything to me, nor swung
his old whip over me, as I venturee
10 climb upon the side Of his cutter
Another benignant look from thu
oountrymon, hut not q word. En-
boldened by'his supposed goodness
l ventnred to tumble into the cutter
and take seat under the warm buf
falo robe beside him, and then ht
spoke. The colloquy was as follows
Young man., doyou like to ride
Yes.
It's pretty nice cutter, isn't it?
Yes, sir, it is, and rice horse
drawing it.
Did l ask you to get in?
No, sir.
Well, then, why did you get in?
Well, sir. II thought you looked
so good and kind, an1 that you would
have no objection.
And SO. young man, because yor
thought I was good and kind, you
took advantage of that kindness, and
took favor without asking for it!
Yes, sir.
Is that ride worth having?
Yes, sir.
Well, now, young man, I want to
tell you .wo things. You should
never take mean advantage of the
kindness of others; and what is
worth at least asking for. Now as
yon tumbled into this sleigh without
asking me, shall tumble you out
into that snow-drift without asking
you.
And ont I went. like shot off a
shovel, and ne didn't make much
fuss about it either. l picked myself
up in slightly bewildered state, but
l never forgot that lesson.

PROVED AN ALIDI.-The hearing OF
the charge OF assault with intent 10
commit rape which was preferred by
Eliza Hamm against Martin Friery was
heard before Squire Johnston yesterday
afternoon. 1t appears that on the 9th
of May, about s o'clock in the evening,
Mrs. Hamm was passing along by the
new bridge, when she was knocked
down by some one who threatened to
kill her if she made noise. She is
sure the assault was made by Friery.
Friery proved that he was in his bed at
that hour on the 9th of May, and that
Mrs. Hamm must be mistaken. Friery
was discharged from custody.

AT the conclusion of Mr.. Clarkson's
address Gen. Duval announced that
owing TO the rain, Mr. Danford would
not speak, but the air was Immediately
filled with shouts OF "Danford," Dan
ford" and he accordingly came forward
and delivered beautiful speech, which
pleased the crowd greatly"
General Duval announced" no such
thing. Gen. Duval introduced Capt.
Danford, who came forward and said he
would make his speech shorter than
he otherwise would because Of he rain.
That's all. Capt. Dsnford is not the
man to back out" because OF a few
drops OF rain, and the idea OF declining
to speak because of a summer shower,
we will venture to say, never entered
his head.

CAN'T AGREE.-The depositors in the
Wheeling Savings Institution do not
seem to be able TO agree with the trust
tees and officers of that institution on
eight per cent as a fair dividend. The
depositors have arrived at the conclu-
sion, somehow, that the stockholders
and directors are liable for the total
amount o! the deposits, and we will not
be surprised if very neat little law
suit grows out Of the attempt 10 make
the institution pay to the utmost farth
ing. Judging by the way similar cases
have been decided in the east, lately,
there is a chance that the depostors can
get their money.

"CHArrIE AGAIN.-James Chapman,
alas "Chappie," seems determined to
keep his name before the people, some
how. 1t is but a few days since he
gave bail to answer an assault, and he
is now in Jail on similar charge. 1t
appears that on Tuesday afternoon he
went into saloon in Centre Wheeling
and without the least provocation COM
menced beating the proprietor on the
head with a set of iren 'knucklers. "
He then made his escape and was not
arrested until about 2 o'clock yesterday
morning, when he made things pretty
lively for the officers who took him to
Jail.
