Out of the clover and blueeyed erass
He turned them into the river lane;
One after another he let them pass.
Then fastened the meadow bars again
Under the willews and over the hill
He patiently followed their sober pace.
The merry whistle for still
For something Swallowed the sunny face.
Only bay, and his father had said
He never could let his youngest 90;
Two already were lying dead.
Under the feet Of the erampling foe
But after tho evenings work was DONE
And the frogs were loud in the meadow swamp
Over his shoulder he slung his gun.
Amp stealthily followed the footpath damp,
Across the clover, and through the wheat
Though cold was the dew on his hurrying feet,
And the blind hats fitting startled him.
Thrice since then had the lanes been white.
And the orchards sweet with apple bloom;
And now when the cows came back at night,
The feeble father drove them home.
For news had come to the lonely farm.
That three were lying where two had lain;
And the old mans tremulous palsied arm
Could never lean on . sons again.
The Summer day grew cool and late;
He went for the cows when the work was done;
But down the lane. as he opened the gate,
He saw them coming, one by one
Rrindne. Ebony Speckle and Bess
Shaking their horns in the evening wind;
Cropping the buttercups out of the grass
But who was it following close behind!
Loosely swung in the idle air
The empty sleeve Of army blue:
And worn and pale. from the crisping hair
Looked out q face that the father knew.
For Southern prisons win sometimes yawn
And WELD their dead unto life again;
And the day that comes with a cloudy dawn,
In golden glory at last may wane.
The great tears sprang to their meeting eyes;
For the heart must speak when the lips are dumb;
And under the silent evening skies
Together they followed the cattle home

and Interesting account of his habits OF
life and the manner in which he and his
wife get on through tho world. The fol-
lowing are extracts:
Eighteen years ago made the circumnav-

Australia, evidently gave . new accession,

that the climate OF Australia makes young
men old, and old men young. I do not
believe the first part Of the proverb, but
am quite certain that there Is q great deal
in the second part of It. During those
two years I chiefly lived In q tent, and
led quiet, free and pleasant life In the

shifting our scene, as we took the fancy

CALIFORNIA WONDERS.

IRON the San Francisco Buetn.1
Near the confines of FRESNO, Tulare and
lnyo counties, in the head waters Of the
heweah, there exists u remarkable piece
OF country. The Indians say IL the abid.
ing place OF tn, Evil Spirit The coun-
try Is rugged and rocky-mountains, with
deep valleysand precipitous cliffs. Snakes
and reptiles Of every description abound in
untold numbers, and, taken in all. II Ia a
wild and most uninyiting region. But
aside from this most curious phenomena
exists. The ground trembles and ouakes
almost continuously, and the abundant
rocks grind and grit together as if being
urged by some terrible influence. Ere,
quently deep discharges are heard, muiiled
and dull, like the distant sound of heavy
artillery. At night the sounds seem 10
DO more abundant than in the DAYTIME.
No Indian can be induced to venture near
the locality, regarding it with supersti-
tious horror. No theory is advanced BY any
ono TO account for the strange phen omen a
mentioned. We also learned from Will
liam Famonvillo that above the head of
Crane valley, in this country, another
place similar to the one mentioned exists.
Persons who have visited the last place
named, describe the sound mentioned as
like mufiied thunder.

The breakfasts take place in the afternoon

cess of Wales, in particlsr, is very lively

known "propriety" and haughiiness of
her royal mamma, nor the Indifference Of
her big lazy husband seem to have damp
