Queens speech relating to American af-

of -
The arbitrators appointed pursuant to
the treaty Of Washington for amicably
settling the Alabama claims, held their
first meeting in Geneva. Cases were

submitted by the United States, large
claims are included, which are under

TicoDderoga-Our Home.
BY solitaire.

While Zero" writes in gloomy prose
And notes events as time rolls on,
o, HERALD give me place to sing
In style or solemn or jocose
While Pegasus is on the wing,
Or stands our mountain tops upon.
Ticonderogai What n name!
IT'S known through Earth's remotest
bounds
It's ''brawling waters" ceaseless roar
Continues still and is the same
AS when "Carillon's'F first it bore
For sweetest music, Heavenly sounds,
Ticonderoga! Hallow'd place!
Renowned for scenes of blood and strifel
Whose eye can see, whose tongue can tell,
Whose hand can point, whose finger trace
Where Savage, Frenchman, Briton fell
Or patriot sons laid down their life?
A few gray walls of Wondering stone
A few long lines of ramparts high
A few deep meats like darksome caves
Are left to witness graves unknown,
To tell where fought Columbia's braves
And awe the stranger passer-by.
All else is by Oblivion bound
Or coIord and of little worth;
The blood that drcnchcd the hallowod
sod,
The bones that lie beneath the ground
Must wait to meet Incarnate God,
When last the trumpet sounds-'COME
FORTH"
Inspiring muse, direct my theme!
My rough and uncouth speech refine;
Swifter my sluggish pulse impel,
Unchain my thoughts as in a dream
Bid my blue veins cOnvulsive swell
And move me as by sparkling wine!
Our own dear home we love thee true,
But not for deeds of blood-red war.
Our love springs from purer source
Than war e'er waged or strife e'er knew;
And flows in its majestic course
Through broader channels, deeper far.
We love thy rough, steep mountain sides!
Their rocks so gray and trees so green!
The sturdy oak, the hardy beech,
The little rill that babbling glides
Ger cliff and rock too soon to reach
The torrent in the deep ravine.
We love thy groves ambrosial shade,
When famed their leaves by summer
breeze!
When woodland flowers in countless dyes
With perfumes sweet the air pervade.
And sylvan churches from the skies
Make heavenly music in the trees!
We love Lake George so pure and clear!
It's rock bound shores so high and bold!
The wild birds flying high in air!
The bounding fawn, the stately deer!
An hundred islands here and there.
Like gems set in a crown of gold!
TicOnderoga! Home we prize.
We never care from thee to roam;
No wealth can tempt, no splendor charm
Nor all the pOmp beneath the skies
Can lure us from thy circling arm!
Thee we adore and call thee-HOME.

An English writer Of hundred years
ago thus speaks Of the status Of the pO-
tato: This root increases prodigiously,
and is very proper for fattening cattle.
. They are boiled in water and require but
little boiling, though they may have been
kept two months in the store Cattle
eat them raw but for the table they are
wholesome boiled | earnestly recon-
mend the culture Of this plant to hus-
bandmep, as it is not only excellent food
for cattle but good for man in years of
scarcity. After little use the taste be-
comes at least as agreeable as turnips,
and particularly If the potatoes are
boiled with bacon and salt pork. .
