The Latest Trick of Educated Young
. America. --
CINCINNATI, Oct. 2S.-A Gazette special
from Fort Wayne, Indiana, says charges of
embezzlement are now pending against
Jno. Droymer. The Treasurer of that city
caused an examination of his officisl bond
which resulted in the discovery that it was
worthless. The signatures have been Sc
cured by cutting from the bond of prede-
cessor the slip containing the signatures of
the sureties and pasting it below his own
SIGNATURE on his bond, presenting it to the
council who accepted it, without being
aware of its true character.

'Tis latc-in my lone chamber,
Borne through the echoing hall,

The rain drops plashing fall
And the street-lamp on the ceiling.
Throws many weird like form T
Tree shadows dancing wildly
To the m usic Of the storm. lel
Called my vigil lonely?
The door is still and fast;
Ger threshold and Ser carpet

No rustic Of white rsiment
Or warm breath stirs the air;
Yet speak aloud my greeting

Said Our Father, hours ago;
Whose cheeks now dent their pillows-
Live roses upon snow.
They dream not OF the graveyard
And of the hillocks twain

And dripping with the rain

Since kissed the eyelids down

To win them to her breast,

Free birds from narrow nest

And pain are at their height,
To toll me of the safety,

entire length, when all the roads are CON-
Melted. 1878 miles. Illinois has a greater
length of road (690l miles, than any other
state. New York, the second on the list,
having lust 5000 less. Rhode Island Jas

there is one mile of railroad to sverT fi2
sonare miles. $50 s inhabitants and SEos,5ii

there il one mile Of road to every $50 sguai e

The progress of railroad building has
been very rapid since 1878, although IL fell

1000 miles per annum were added at Shat
