THE INDIAN WIFE.
ny JOAQUIN MILLER.

BY JOAQUIN MILLER.
No. not 80 lonely now-I love
A forest maiden she is mine;
And on Sierras' slopes Of pine,
The vines below, the SHOWS above,
A solitary lodge is set
Within n fringe of watered frs
And there my wigmam fires burn,
Fed by round brown patient hand,
That small brown faithful hand of hers
That never rests till my return.
The yellow smoke is rising yeti
Tiptoe, and see it whore you stand
Lift like a column from the land.
There are no sea-gems in her hair
No Jewels fret her dimpled hands,
And half her bronzen limbs are bare
But round brown arms have golden bands,
Broad, rich, and by her cunning hands
Gut from the yellow virgin ore,
And she does not desire more.
l wear the beaded wampum belt
That she has wove-the sable pelt
That she has fringed red threads around
And in the morning, when men are not,
l wake the valley with my shot
That brings the brown deer to the ground.
And she beside the ledge at noon
Sings with the wind while baby swings
In sea-shell cradle by the bough-
Sings low, so like the clover sings
With swarm of bees; l hear her now,
I see her sad face through the moon
Such songs would earth had more of such
She has not much to say, and she
Lifts never voice to question me
In aught / do . . and that is much.
/ love her for her patient trust,
And my loves forty-fold return.

The fall session opened with number between
eighty and ninety in ready attendance. The
institution has been successfully carried on for
the last two years, under Prof j. r. Shipe and
assistants, and is, at the present time carried on
by the same gentleman, assisted by his wife,
branch conducted by Miss a. NJ Heron, re-
fined lady, late of England.
In addition to this, we have an interesting
Sabbath School, which is the life of the youth
and the great moral guide of virtue.
Preparations are now going on for building q

A New Rendering of an Old Text.

Spending a winter as invalids at Aiken,
:. c., the Hon. Thurlow Weed and Mr..
Thos. c. Acton whiled away one Sab
bath afternoon by attending a negro
church, and were accompanied by Mr..
John A. Kennedy, who was on visit of
few days to Mr.. Acton. When they en-
tered the primitive temple the preacher,
who was pure African, was graphing
with all the feTvOr of his race with the old
old subject of the fall of man. Sketching
that day in the garden with its terrible re-
suits, he excoriated Mr.. Adam in this
fashion:
Now, brederen, when the Lord calls
Adam to count did he STAN up like man
confess his sin and ask forgiveness ? He
didn't do muffin of the sort, brederen, but
he say:
:. Lord, de woman that Dou gubest me
CUB me for to eat -
Pausing a moment he repeated
" De woman that DOU gubest me Cub
me for to eat
Then again:
" DE woman that Dot gubest me Cub
me for to eat"
Oar, brederen, you see dat mean skulk-
in Adam was tryin' to sneak out of it by
irowin' all the blame on the Lord his
self!u
This new idea of an old question was too
much for the distinguished white trash -
who had fortunately taken seats near the
door, and they retired into the fields to in
dulge in irreverent laughter.-r"Th Club
Room Of the GalaJY for October.
He "STAID. Lately when the body of
George Kirk was lying at Wilson d
Browns undertaking establishments on
IL street, Virginia City, a man who APP
peared 10 be "A stranger i'm the city, seeing
something Of crowd about the door ap-
preached and looked in at the body lying
in the coffin.
MAN dead?' asked he Of person stand
ing near.
Eyes, sir" shortly answered he who was
questioned.
Fidgetting little, the stranger tried if
again How did he die"
Hung, was the laconic reply.
Hung! All, hung hImself?'
No, he was hung by the vigilants.'
Stranger again-'What they hang him
for?'
He had beennotifed to leave town, and
