The New York Tribune says: Governor
Alcorn, of Mississippi telegraphs to Washing
ton that he is able to arrest and punish the
recent murderers at Meridian, provided he can
discover them. We are glad to hear it, Now
will he be good enough to say whether he has
any difficulty in discovering Yerger, the we'll
known murderer of Colonel Crane? Yerger
was parading the streets of Vicksburg, and re-
garded by his confederates as victorious hero,
when We last heard from him. May we hope
to hear from Governor AcOrn with regard to
him ~

No apology is needed at this time for repro
ducing the following exquisite lines by the
lsmented Alice Cary-lines which, in the judg-
ment of so competent critic as Edgar A. Poe,
deserve to rank among the very finest contribu-
tions to the poetic literature of this country:
Of all the beautiful pictures
That hang on Memory wall.
Is one of dim old forest,
That seemeth best of al
Not for its gnarled oaks olden.
Dark with the mistletoe;
Not for the violets golden
That sprinkle the vale below:
Not for the milk-white lilies
That lean from the fragrant hedge,
Coqueting all day with the sunbeams,
And stealing their golden edge
Not for the vines on the upland
Where the bright red berries rest
Nor the pinks, nor the pale, sweet cowslip
1t seemeth to me the best.
l once had little brother
With eyes that were dark aud deep
la ;hs lap of that olden forest
He lisih in peace asleep.
Light as the down of the thistle,
Free as the winds that blow,
We roved there the beautiful summers,
The summers of long ago;
but his feet on the hills grew weary,
And one of the autumn ewes
made for my little brother
A bed of the yellow leaves.
Sweetly his pale arms folded
NV neck in "A meek embrace,
As the light of immortal beauty
Silently covered his face;
And when the arrows of sunset
Lodged In the tree tops bright,
He fell, in his saint-ike beauty,
Asleep 10y the gates of light.
Therefore. of all the pictures
That hang on Memory wall,
The one of the dim old forest
Seemeth best of all.

When woman makes up her mind to
have anything, she is pretty sure to get it.
Probably that assertion will not be dis
puted. At any rate, an illustration of its
truth comes from Cincinnati. The good
dame of citizen of that place could not
persuade her spouse to get her patent
clOthes-dryer. So she took the pole out
from her old-fashioped line the other even
ing, and, crouching down behind the
fence, screamed "murder ~ In an in
slant her startled lord came flying out of
the house, was caught across the throat by
the clothes-line, and, before he could re-
cover himself, it had nearly sawed his head
off. The next morning a sombre-looking
individual, with his neck all done up in
cloths and bandages, was seen putting up
a patent clothes-dryer in that yard. How
many divorce suits might be saved by a
like simple eXpedient?
