INPROMPTU LINES
WRITTEN AT TIE REQUEST OF A FRIEND

My friend. You ask of me song,
But have ceased to sing;
My wandering muse no longer strays
BY fair Pirene's Spring.
And Pegasus no longer scars
For NE, on pinion's light,
Nor lends 10 me the slightest aid,
When would take flight.
Above this weary world of Ours
So cold so dark, so ,,re:,r,
That could BORROW once bis wings,
I'd stay no longer hero
But soar with him above the stars,
And in the sunlight fair,
or lovetier worlds and brighter skies,
lnhale the heavenly air.
But would it fit me for this sphere,
Which God has placed me in,
10 soar above III rral'ns uf light
Where Death is not--nar sim2
An no! then let ME seek that fount
That opened is for sin!
And music Oh fair Bethcsda's pool
Which IAN angel stirred within
Whose Troubled waters healing gave
TO him who first went in
Let holicr themes my thoughts inspire
Than tabled muse or fount,
Or Pegasus, the winged stss.l
Or Grcece's classic Mount
Bnt of the covenant angel" who,
With uversliadowing wing
Of cloud by day. of fire by night,
In lofticr strains Id sing.
If cnnld play as David did,
And touch the tuneful string
OF israel's harp of heavenly sound,
] then hi ght dare to sing
| If he had seen fair Bethlchem's star,
And heard the Angels sing;
What heavenly strains would he have
walked
| The joyous news to bring.
"Good will to men and peace on earth,"
| l hear the heavenly strain
| Swell through the starry midnight plains
With riptnrons sound again.
Again the Angels joyful sing
The Heavenly Host draws near,
To celebrate with us again
| Their Festival so dear.
Then let lis sing the Angels song,
/ That song to martals dear
Good will to men and peace on EARTH"
| And .ove each other here
| Till we have joined that tuncful throng
| Beyond this earthly sphere
Have passed through Jordan's billows
| waves,
And the last conflict here.
Oh. healer of my sinful heart!
Under Thy shelteri wing,
Cover my weak defenceless head,
And take from Death his sting
Before he comes-Thy messenger,
TO call my spirit homie!
Then, dear Rr,ieemer! Heavenly Friend
Lord jesus quickly GOMEZ

Singapore, May 26, lS71--A vol.
canic eruption, accompanied by an
earthquake, has made fearful havoc
on the Island of Rua.
The country has been completely
devastated, and the loss of lives IA
terrible. Four hundred dead bodies
have thus for been recovered.
The eruption was preceded By a
rumbling sound which was heard
for hundreds Of miles. The earth
in Jorge part Of the island was
rent open and bodies of molten mat
ter streamed down, carrying every.
thing beforeH The velocity of the
streams was so great that the ma
lives, who fed before it, were caught
and buried by the lava.
The outflow from the craters at
tanned great dimensions, filing up
the country to a-depth of one hun
dred feet for miles around, Disrup-
ted fragments that were thrown
high into the air aided the work of
destruction After the shock had
passed there we're still eruptions Of

Ga~Charlie Babcock, the energetic and
popular agent Of the Atlantic & Pacific
Railroad, has spent several days with us
this week, in the interest of his road, ex.
planning the advantages to the shippers OF
cattle by that route. This road, We learn
from Mr.. Babcock, is now running TO the
West side of Grand River, about 10 miles
Southwest of Seneca, Mo-, and into the In.
dian Territory. 1t is claimed, and we be-
lieve correctly, that this is the shortest
route for cattle drovers who design ship
ping their cattle to St. Louis and the North
and Fast while there are excellent ac-
commodations for cattle, and buyers al
ways en- hand at the terminus. At the
crossing of Grand River, OIL this road,
there has recently been constructed mag

BE justin an article in the last Is.
sue of the "Waxahachie Democrat" We
find the following paragraph.
EVIDENCE: LET ALL THE PEOPLE READ IT
In letter to certain gentlemen at Dallas
Throckmorton uses language like this
These dirty scumps, NTH Conner at heU
head are the most damnable set Of liars out
Of heH' We may not give the language
rerbatim, but we are strictly correct in sub.
stunce. i'
This language is calculated to do Gov
Throckmorton great injustice. The letter
referred to was strictly private to a couple
of gentlemen ofour city, and inadvertcnt-
ly shown; but the above purported extract
from it is verbally incorrect; the violent
language is not in the letter, and al,ogeth
err it conveys an incorrect idea. We have
seen the letter, and there is not n syllable,
word or sentence in it which could be con-
strued into deuunciation of Mr.. Conner S
friends, as such. 1t denOunces the VEN
derskof particular SANDER against the
Governor, and no one else.
Could it be supposed for moment that
Gov. Throckmorton would denounce his
warmest friends by the wholesale, because
of o difference about man2 We are for
Conner; we are an old and intimate friend
of Gov. Throckmorton, aud we don feel at
all hurt by that letter.
