Meath bright stars out here on the lawn. a.
Where the moonlight sleeps calmest, anu UaIAlne
With YOU, could talk until dawnl

Pluck roses and gaze at the skies,
As chat, If you're puzzled for answers
Why, speak to me then with your eyes

Don't kill it SO close 10 your cheeks
Rather hold it, and think as thou gTeeIest
Its fragrance, that then my love speaks.
Therei twill out! since first saw you growing
Like summers morn perfect in grace,

For lOve-stTicken hearts, in real sorrow,

You shall get me some chicken, and quickly
Forget one you now think so false.

And then YOU shall have the next waltz"

THE REV. BROTHER.IN-LAW.
The Danish Government Resolved TO
Demand Cramer's Recall.

The Danish Government Resolved to
Demand Cramer's Recall.
The Copenhagen correspondent Of the
Berlin Vosi8cbe Zeitong writes under date
of March as follows:
The Danes are a proverbially proud and
sensitive people, and nothing offends them
more than to question their courage as SOL
diers. Mr.. Cramer, the American Ambas-
sadOr, whose recall the Danish government
has resolved to demand from the Cabinet of
Washington, owes his great unpopularity in
Copenhagen, anC the humiliation which is
about TO be inflicted upon himself and the
country be represents, in the first place to
an excusable indiscretion which be commit
ted last autumn at the public .tete which
was given at the Tivoli, aud to which he
had been invited on account of his official
position. On that occasion he was seated
at a small table in front of the large build
ing with a number of the Swiss legation,
Mr.. Breckert, from Kiel, and two or three
officers of the regiment of Queens hus-
sars. The conversation gradually became
animated, and, when Mr.. BIeckert alluded
to the conduct of the Prussian soldiers in
SchlesWig, in 1864, the officers grew very in
dignant, and replied TO him in an insulting
tone. To their great surprise, Mr. Cramer
took up the cudgel for Breckert, and asked
the officers sneeringly ifthey had not them
selves found out in that campaign that the
PTussians were the best soldiers in the
world. He received an equally insulting
reply from the officers, who jumped up and
left the table in an OstentatiouS manner.
1t was generally believed that a challenge
would be the consequence, but the Ameri-
can ambassador did not even deem it nee
esSaTy to demand or make an apology. AT
the court bail, on the I'd of November,
everybody Stunned him because he had
failed to demand satisfaCtionfort the affront.
Too much champagne at the time was
thought to have been the cause of Mr.. era
mer'5 indiscretion; but he has since then
committed so many similar and worse
breaches Of good taste and prOpTiety that
good society, notwithstanding his exalted
position, has long since OstraCiZed him.
The Minister Of Foreign Affairs will now
demand bis immediate recall on the ground
Of his frequent Objectionable conduct in
public, his quauelsOme and Overbearing
temper, and his habitual intemperance.
This step is in accordance With public SEN
timent, aud will be approved by none more
heartily than by the foreign diplOmatists,
who refuse to have anything to do with Mr..
CrameT, and who, like many other people
here. are surprised that he has ever been
sent here.

An exchange says: off, instead Of the
closing anthem, some of our ministers shCuid
at the close Of the service, give the orders,
Attention, worshippers! For hats, dive
For Ov-rcOats, 60! Jerk, twist, plunge.
Make yourselves ridiculous alp the effect
would hardly be variation from the pres
ent style of getting ready to go out Of
church. The singing of the doxology seems
to be tie signal for a general put
ting on and adjustme 1t, and when
the benediction is about to be
pronounced, the rulIied congregation
look more like jumping out of the windows,
or uniting in crushing and crowding race
for the doors, than listening to the solemn
words of the good pastor. At one Of our
well filed churches, On Sunday evening, it
was observed that at least every third man
was going through these ridiculous mo-
tons While the services were closing, al
though the sermon had been excellent.
Why do not people wait until the proper
time to do these things? There is a time
for everything, but that time does not al
ways occur during church service"

FIRST BOARD.
Glae Prospects ON the Wheat Crop in
store and Growing.

a late Chicago circular says:
As to the future of wheat, the diversity
Of opinion is almost incredible, the bears
maintaining that the visible supply is ample
for all consumptive requirements until the
new crop shall have been secured. While
on the other hand, the bulls claim that the
stock IL farmers hands Is less than half
that of last year at the same time-the ex-
IRENE prices ruling last fan having induced
the bulk Of the wheat out Of the farmers
hands, which now appears in the stock
constituting the visible supply, and the
stock in Chicago is nearly 1000, 900 bushels
less than last year at this time, against
which deficiency the stock in New York is
only l,l50,G00 more than at this time last
year. 1t is an indisputable fact that orders
are daily being filled in this market for one
or two car load lots to supply the local
trade Of mill at country points west, south
and east Of US, while the demand from Gin
Cinnati, Louisville and other points on the
Ohio and in the Southern States is steadily
increasing. That wheat will advance above
present values is probably as near a GER
tainty as any uncertainty can be; yet,
whether the advance will be enough to
secure profit beyond the charges for in
terest, insurance and storage is a problem
which we leave for others 10 solve. The
late reports concerning the coming of winter
wheat are much more favorable than two
or three weeks ago, the general opinion,
about the first of March, being that the crop
was generally winter killed. We have,
however, been in receipt of quite number
of letters from Southern Illinois and Central
Missouri during the past week, all Of which
indicate that, with favorable weather from
this time, the crop viii be fully an average
one,

a BOSTON woman, who had for long
been given up for dead by all who were
dear to her, lately appeared, "the ghost of
her former SELF" to those who had thought
never to see her again. She told a story of
strange and horrible suffering. More than
a score of years ago she had sailed, young
girl Of Is, with her missionary husband for
'Inda's coral strand" The vessel was
wrecked on the Arabian coast and all on
board parished save her husband and herself
He was preserved only to fall victim to
Arab cruelty and she to Arab slavery. While
her beauty lasted as she was the favOrite
wife OF the most powerful chief in the South
Arabian desert, but when that waned she
fell from her chad eminence" andwas trans
ferred to the harem of an inferior sheik. And
so she lived, praying for death, but not dar-
ing to die, till, banded from one barbarian
to another she, Boston lady in whose
veins flowed the purest Puritan blood, found
herself the wife of an Arabian wateT-caTrier
From his power an American traveller freed
her and provided her with the means to
reach home.

TIE CUNnURANGO HUmBUG.

After protracted trial Of cundurangO in
the cancer wards Of the Middlesex Hospital
in London, the medical authorities of that
institution have arrived at the conclusion
that the drug has no effect whatever on
cancer. The British Medical Journal of
Feb. II, says that at a recent meeting of
the Clinical Society in London. papers were
read by the two gentlemen who had been
conducting this investigation, in which
it was distinctly stated that not one
single indication of improvement had been
observed in any Of the cases treated by the
alleged remedy. In fact, the disease either
ran its usual course, or the patients showed
symptoms Of arrangements of system which
might fairly be attributed to the drug. At
the same meeting the fact was mentioned
that large number Of persons in England,
m sled by the reports that had come from
America, were paying eXOrbitant prices
for the nostrum, and the feeling was
strongly expressed that it was desirable that
the public should be made aware of its ut
ter worthleSsness.

AN INTERVIEW WITH THE DEVIL
Prom the Owen (Ky.) News.

The negro Sandy Hammons, who was
shot in A frscas last Christmas near New
Liberty, died to all appearances March q.
Strange things happened to this negro which
are worth repeating, for he has brought
news from a quarter where no telegraph
nor railroad has, as yet, any reporter: He
was shot in the neck, and bis entire lower
body has been ever since completely para
lived, whist be was all the time sensible
Some days ago he died, as all his
friends supposed, and he was laid out
70 bury. but came 20 life in time to es-
cape the grave. He said, after coming to,
that he had been to see the devil, was in hell,
and saw many Of his acqUaiutances; the
devil told him he had no room for him
then. but would he ready for him in a few
DAYS. He reports the devil black, savage
looking monster, armed with fiery lashes,
which he lays on his unruly subjects. His
dorniuions are all interspersed with lakes of
fire and pla,es Of rest: the worst are pun
isbsd the most, but ali are punished accord

THE ExPLoRA nos OF PALESTINE.

The latest accounts to the London Times

highly satisfactory progress. During the
month of January, the base line having
been previously measured, triangulation

are found in various places. At Dayr Tarif
they are of a pattern Gan oblong opening,
covered with slab sunk in the fiat surface
of the rock only heretofore discovered in
Jebel ell Fowl North Syria, between Ha-
nah and AleppO). Excavated cisterns,
shaped like bee hives or inverted tunnels,
are very common. SubterraneOus store

by The natives. The cisterns and graves at
Dayr Tarif have the same name (uawamis)
as that given by the BedOuiDs in Sinai to the
primeval cairns and tombs found there.
