We slight the gifts that every season bears,
And let them fall unheeded from our grasp
In our great eagerness to reach and clasp
The promised treasure Of the coming year; lit
Or else we mourn some great good passed away,
And in the shadow of our grief shut in, -.
Refuse the lesser good we yet might win,
The offered peace and gladness of to-day.
So through the chambers of our life we pass,
And leave them one by one, and never stay
Not knowing how much pleasantness there was
In each, until the closing of the door
Has sounded through the house, and died away
And in our hearts we sigh Forever more"

A FASHIONABLE MISNOMER.

A young lady writes to the journalism
at least 1t looks like feminine chirogra-
phy-1n defense of her fellow creature
and sister Dolly Warden. She thinks q
great mistake is made and correspond
ing injustice done in calling the prevail
ing loud fashion for ladies Dolly Var,
den." She is decidedly of the opinion
that If Barnaby Ridge were substituted in
place of the present baptism, the fitness
Of things would be sensibly improved.
Dickens, our correspondent begs us to
note, describes Barnaby Ridge as follows:
''IIe was about twenty three years of
age. His hair red and hanging in great
profusion and disorder about his face and
shoulders. Wan, pale, haggard, his alas-
sy eyes large and protruding. His dress
was Of green, clumsily trimmed here and
there, apparently by his own hands, with
gaudy lace, brightest where the cloth was
the most worn and Soiled, and poorest
where II was the best. A pair of tawdy
rutf1es dangled at his wrists, his throat
nearly bare. He had ornamented his hat
with a cluster of peacock feathers limp
now and broken and trailing down his
back; at his side the steel hilt Of an old
sword without blade or scab5ard, parti-
colsred ribbons and poor glass toys COM
posed the ornamental portion of his at.
tire
Thus Dickens describes the poor, silly,
restless Barnaby Rudge, "aEd who," says
our correspondent, could be so cruel as
to deck with foolish Barnaby's gauds and
traps, that beautiful, coquettish creation,
Dolly Warden p We leave those who set
the fashions to reply. Dickens draws
Dolly in this way
CA roguish face, frightened up by the
loveljest pair of sparkling cyes--a pretty
laughing girl, dimpled and fresh and
hcalthfuI = tn" very impersonation of
good humor and blooming beauty" Of
her dress he simply writes" in q smart
little cherry colored mantle, with a hood
of the same drawn over her head, upon
the top of that hood little straw hat
trimmed with cherry colored ribbons,
worn the merest trife on one side-just
the wickedest, most provoking head dress
ever malicious milllner devised, such
cruel little muff and lsuch q heart-rending
pair of Shoes"
Rudge or Warden, which shall it be-
which ought it to be Clearly the apoth-
osis Of bed quilt, which fashion styles
Dolly Warden" has no just warrant for
its name in anything which Dickens has
written descriptive of Dolly. 1t probably
originated in the disordered brain of
some Partisan dress maker who was not
well up in Dickens. We very gladly COM
ply with our correspondents request by
telling our young lady readers that the
conspicuous style of dress which they
affect nowadays is not Dolly Warden but
poor, witless Barnaby Ridge"

GREELEY'S FINANCIAL POLICY.

Mr.. Greeleys financial policy, should
any reverse of national 4fortune place him
at the head CT affairs, would startle most
business men. For long time its watch
word, ia regard to specie payments, has
Deen "the way to resume is resume" a
proposition eminently phllosophic in ex-
preston, but dangerous in realization.
It is likely that his first measure-after,
perhaps, u general regulation of agrlcul-
ture according to his theories-would be
forced resumption Of specie payments,
which would result in q general unset :
Ting of business affairs, change in
standards Of value, and the ruin of thou
sands of thousands of business men. Mr..
Greeley, too, has theory Of his own in
regard to taxation and the payment of
the national debt, which cannot but be
interesting to all moneycd men. Mr.
Greeley said in June, 1867:
eve believe in taxing so as to pay the
debt in ten years. To do this the ma
tional revenue should be about $780, OO,-
600 per annum, or the same as IN 1865.
Had it been kept there we might have
celebrated our country's centenary on. the
4th day of July, 1875, completely out of
debt. Ard we hold that this might have
been done by taxing with steady purpose
to diminish the number of idlers Of use
lessly employed persons. and increase the
proportion of productive workers, with
out prejudice to the national growth or
prosperity. Here, for example, are good
many thousands of our people who have
incomes of $4,000 to 81 100000 per an
mum. Suppose these were to pay ten per
cent. income tax, what of it? They will
live less sumptuously, or board less boun-
teously for few years-thst is all. They
will still enjoy every comfort, and will be
growing richer, if they choose
All men Of means who are in favor of
an income tax of ten per cent. are request
ed to step right up and cast their votes
for Horace Greeley. Don't crowd around
the polls Boston Journal.

A HOOSIER JOKE.

400 va J"8 Z t4' From the Detroit Post.
3 Three thirsty excursionists from Detroit
inquired off cadaverous, aguc-shaped car
driver in Indianapolis last Friday, if he
knew where certain brewery was situa-
ted, at the same time beginning to show
their aptness at quizzing. The driver
"reckoned" he hadn'S lived in Indianap-
oils seventeen years not to know that
much, and to the enquiry if his car was
going In the direction named, drawled
out years" The trio sat down for the
car to start, and the driver collected fare
at once. Five, ten, fifteen minutes
elapsed, and no move. To an inquiry it
he should like to have fire built under
his horse to get it to start, he reckoned
ne would go "pretty soon. At the end
OF twenty minutes, when it was beyond
question that one trip had been missed,
move was made. On getting to the op.
posite side of the same street from which
it started the car was stopped by the dri-
yer and the witty Detreiters informed
that it they "trotted along that street to
the right for mile and a half" they
would find the brewery. They got out of
the car, and concluded to find a place
at which to satisfy their thirst nearer
than mile and half.

SUMMER.
BY ORPHEUs G. KERR,

The tickle year is in its golden prime;
The world is dreaming in hazy luster,
And round the altar of our Summer climes
The blUshing roses cluster.
Upon the mountain dwells impassioned
light,
And in the valley sleeps shade depressing,
While fields of waving wealth enchant the
sight,
Like gold of Gods own blessing.
The pIowman rests beneath the wayside tree,
Tie stream curls slowly round the hoofs of
cattle;
And DER the meadow floats the droniug bee,
Fresh from his fioWery battle.
Soft through the southern meshes of the
vine,
hear the birds unto each other calling;
And in the casket of the eglantine
The tropic dews are falling.
Ear in the distance rolls the sluggish sea,
With not enough of life in all it's breathing
To bid the sail from it's rude bonds go free,
And spurn its hempen Wreathlng.
On all there rests halo and hush,
The spell of poesy is on the blossom,
And NATURES spirit slumbers in blush,
I: Caught from high heavens bosom.
The past and future blend in one sweet sleep,
The worlds dream, and care a hidden
murmur,
Whose tears, however sadly he may weep,
Are but the deWs of Summer.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1872-08-15
A GOOD JOKE.

The following is said to be au authen-
son Of genius, one Of the greatest por'
trait painters of his day, was at times
such a votary of the bottle that his friends
began to think that he would be utterly
ruined in body and mind. After one Of
his periodical "spree," several Of his
friends determined, if possible, to arrest
his downward career, and so went over to
his studio, carrying in a pocket a large
rat. for purposes which will be seen. 3.
sat painting lazily, returning to his work
after he had greeted his friends. They
took him to task rOundly for his dissipa-
ton, declaring that his health wassutter-
lv ruined, and very soon he would be
driven into t'snake," otherwise called de-
lirium tremens. They pressed that topic,
when finally he rose In a passion, and as
he did so the rat was set loose and went
fving among the half finished pictures.
E. gave chase with cane, calling loudly
for assistance, knowing that If the animal
was not caught it would work mis-"
chief with his canvass Not hearing tue
others move, he looked around IN aston
ishment, and shuddered visi6ly as ne saw
them looking at him with faces full OF
sadness and pity. They tried to get him:t
to sit down, saying that he'd "get over it
pretty soon," but he shook them oil and
went silently back to his painting. AT?
ter few touches he turned round, and,
with an attempt to laugh that was mex
pressibly painful, broke out, THAT was
good Joke had on you fellows. I didn't
see any rat"
