And stars aglow in the gloom.

And watch for the roses to blow.
How balmy sweet. in the otdcn time,
The breath of those dain.y flowers;
The moments follow with silvery chime,
To sleep in the golden hours;
And tho lilies used to love ms then
As they leaTe acrass MY feet.
To hold me- back in the pathways fair,
For they knew til, days were feet
As the lilies paied nd died away.
And the roses side by side
Have faded year by year. to-day

But morn by morn at the gateway still,

Step down through the siIded blossoms,
With their faces all aglOw,
And Hook bacx through the broken day S
To that time when mine was 50.
And wonder Oft and Oft again,

To the little children in their flight
As they did when was there.

Spills down on the lily cups of dew,
As they drift away in the light,
To find their homes in the isles of b ne,
Asleep on the verge of night.

For they Eann6t bring ME back

And weep in the evenings glow.

President Juarez was buried in the
same cemetery where lies the body of
ex-President Miramon, shot by his or
ders at Querataro.> 1t is worth noticing
that Juarez, who had doomed SO many
men to sudden death, died at last al
most as suddenly a. though he had
been shot by vindictive bullet. Max
amil:an; the brilliant. reckless Mira.

general of the present generation, aud

may be said in favor Of Jusrez, how.
ever, much his, energy patriotism, and
indOmitable will may be praised, he
certainly was rs merciless as the most
vindictive Indian of the plains. His
successor is evidently q very different

grant an amnesty to ell but two of the
adheren's Of the fallen Empire.

How Drinking Causes ApOplexy.

It is the essential nature of all wines
and spirits to send an increased amount
of blood to the brain. The first effect
of taking a glass Of wine or stronger
form of alchohol, is to send the blood
there faster than common, hence the
circulation that gives the red face. 1t
increases the activity of the brain, and
it works faster, and so does the tongue.
But as the blood goes to the brain fast,
er than common, it returns faster, and
no special permanent harm results.
But suppose a man keeps on drinking.
the blood is sent to the brain so fast, in
such large quantities, that IN order to
make room for it the arteries have to
enlarge themselves; they increase in
size. and in doing 30 they press against
the more yielding Aaccid veins which
carry the blood out of the brain and
thus diminish their size, their pores, the
result being that the blood is not only
carried to the arteries of the brain fast
er than is natural or healthful, but it is
preyented from leaving it as fast as usu-
al: hence, q double set of causes of
death are set in operation. Hence,
man may drink enough of brandy or
other spirits in q few hours. or even
minutes, to bring on a fatal attack OF
apoplexy. This is literally being dead
drunk.

Alaska.

A Sitka correspondent of the Alaska
Herald gives some facts for the purpose
of correcting the popular opinion in re-
lation to the climate and productions
in Alaska. He says:
Gan along the North Pacifc-from
Sitka, the capital, to Unalaska, fronting
ON Behring Seattle climate is much
more equal than in the same latitude
ON the Atlantic side. Where, on the
Atlantic, vegetation is unknown, and
the rigor of the climate is such tsat an,
imal life cannot exist, on the Pacific, IN
the same degree, vegetable life is dense
and vigorous, and animal life finds
abundant support. In Sitka it seldom
SHOWS, although it rains nearly every
day in the year. While Russia was in
possession of that country, some at
tempts were made to raise crops of va
rious kinds, and with considerable sue
cess. On the Konai Peninsula, excel.
lent potatoes were grown, and every va
riety of garden vegetables produced IN
On Kadiak Island, anu on
the Aleutian Peninsula, the mostprolific
and nutritious grasses grow, capable OF
iceuluS utTuS VI Cdbtlc, HOiSCc auu ohOOP.
And no doubt ere many years Alaska
will become stock country. Last year
one of the merchants here raised the
very finest qualities of cabbages, let
tuce, radishes, and other vegetables.
Potatoes were planted and produced
fair yield, and even gooseberries and
currants grow to great perfection. So
little has been done to test Alaska In
agriculture or stock-raising, that we
have nothing but the smallest expert
ments from which to argue its capacity
in these respects. The principal OBJ
jects of merchants and capitalists have
been to procure the furs of the country,
and beyond this the development of its
other resources has been very light.
We need not speak of its mineral re-
sources, of its fisheries, and it's forests
of the finest shipbuilping material.
These are admitted facts. As pOpula.
ton tends Northward the agricultural
resources of the territory will be dis
covered, and it will be found that oats,
barley, potatoes, apples, goOseberries
and currants, and all kinds Of vegeta-
bles, will be produced in quantities to
support dense population.

MATAMoRAs, April "A telegram to
General Palacios to-day from Reynosa,
sixty mules distant, reports Generals Tre-
VINO and Quirogas forces, about 1000
strong, with nine pieces of artillery. within
few miles of that place, advancing ON
this city. The gates of this city are closed,
and communication with Brownsville by
ferry has been stopped The national
guard are out. and being armed for de-
tense.
There is great excitement on account of
communication with the outside being cut
Oft. The revolutionists assert that the
movement of Trevino and Quiroga is only
a feint to cover an intended attack on d
body of General Cavellas' government
troops coming from San Luis POtosi to re-
inforce Matamoras and Tampico. but the
evidences are that it is an actual advance
on the city.
MA1AMoRAs, Mexico, April 9-The revo-
luti0nists are supposed to be within forty
or fifty miles of the city, having reoccupied
Reynosa about ten O'Clock this morning, at
which time telegraphic communication
ceased. General Palacios has declared
martial law, and placed General Ayala, Of
Monterey, second in command, and in

About 600 national guards have been en-
rolled and armed to day. and every measure
adopted to secure the defense of the city.
Persons are prohibited from leaving or Ell

martial law, assumes the right to require
all vessels on the Rio Grande to obtain a
special permit from him before approaching
within twelve miles Of the city, above or
below, as precaution against the revolu-
tionists using the river as means to attack
the city.
This order has created considerable op-
position on the American side, as 1t Is de-
MED that the Mexican officials can exercise
such supervision over the river under any
circumstances. While the right of police
visits may be admitted, a permit can not be-
exacted Of a vessel coasting between Amer
