BY JOAQUIN MILLER.

We part as ships on . pathless main,
Gayly enough, for the sense Of pain
IL asleep at first; but ghosts will arise
When we would repose, and the forms will
come
And walk when we walk, and viii not be
dumb,
Nor yet forgetful with their wakeful eyes.
When we most need rest, and tho perfect
sleep,
Some hand will reach from the dark, and
keep
The curtains drawn and the pillows toss'd
Like tide of foam; and one will say
z At night-O Heaven, that 1t were day?
And one by night through the mysty tears
Will say-O Heaven, the days are years,
And l would to Heaven that the waves
were cross'd.

The Dovlne Aatron.
Probably the best paragraph that
ever appeard in the Indiana Farm
or appeared last week. It should
be printed in gold letters, framed
and hung up in every farmers
kitchen:
And an old COW, still yielding
her milk-and, if well treated, quite
abundantly-is one of the most
touching things, after having lived
her life of usefulness. She is still
doing her best to be one of the
herd: and she says to you in that
silent language, ''give me but food
prepared SO that I can use it, and
shall still be your cow" She is
there at the barn, waiting for you
now, ~ in the old days. Though
old, she is sensible, not childish,
and you should treat her according.
y. The rest are your pride. In
their prime they are fine set, with
great eyes, as bright as summer;
and with full, bursting summer
breaths, restless, and shaking heads
expecantly for their food, which il

Perfect has finally been hung. The
law Of Illinois, after three trials, and
despite the technicalities of the Su-
preme Court, supersedeases, and re-
prieves by the Governor, has been
strong enough to hang one Of the most
cowardly and revolving murderers that
ever disgraced the race. There is .
sleam Of hope in this, to the shame Of

Among the large number gather
ed at the horse sale Friday, was
Colonel Higginson, who is, as our
Danbury readers well know, very
deaf. Along side of him, stood
a young man, a stranger, engaged,
as was the Colonel, in watching the
sale. During a lul he turned TO-
ward the Colonel, and politely OBJ
served: "a pleasant day." The
Colonel saw the movement of his
lips, but of course heard no sound,
and not wishing to lose what might
be a matter of vital interest, he
said: ''What's that?" ''It is a pleas
ant day." repeated the young man,
suddenly realizing the dreadful in
significance of the statement. 81

the Colonel, leaning forward with

again stammered, raising his voice
and shivering at the sound. The
Coloners hand went up to his ear
s'Really, sir" he said, in bland
manner, II am afraid you will have
to speak q little louder" The young
man grew redder than ever. How
gladly he would have turned and
fed; how bitterly he regretted not
keeping the information to himself
But the Colonel stood waiting; and
raising himself by his toes, the
young man shrilly screamed: "Itis
a pleasant day" The Colonel hearc

OF late on questions relating to
Christianity and the increase of
skepticism and infidelity through
out this country and Europe. It
can not be denied that the spirit of
free inquiry, a desire to find the
truth wherever it may lead, has
spread with remarkable rapidity
during the past few years, and that
it has spread a deleterious influence
on the churches. In other words
the churches seem to be losing in
measure that vital power which
once characterized them. This fact
will hardly he denied by any honest
and unprejudiced observer of pass
ing events.
In seeking the cause of this state
of things we naturally turn to the
ministry. The church is what the
clergy make it. On them rests the
responsibility of giving it influence
and power. They can lead the pub
lie opinion or follow it. When they
do the first the church becomes q
vital institution, exercising o vast
power among the people; when they
do the latter it ceases, to great
extent, to move and guide the
masses It would seem that the
clergy of the present time are fol-
lowers rather than leaders.
Il is almost painful for man of
an active and intelligent mind to
listen to many of the sermons which
are preached from Sunday to Sun
day in the churches throughout the
land. They strike him as being
peculiarly dead and powerless.-
They are the mere echo of sermons
which were preached hundred
years ago, and which had power
then because in keeping with the
times Now, as then, the minister
reads his scriptural passage and
proceeds with his formal first, sc.
cond AMI thirdly, to expatiate on
some doctrinal point, with painful
elaboration, which has been eluci.
dated q thousand times before in

Idreamed Of great republic
Whose people shall all go West,
Sow plums and reap tomatoes
In the land that they love best;
Where jobs of all dimensions
Shall bloom on every hill,
And chickens low in the barn-yard,
And gooseberries toll at the mill
I'm tired Of seeing the cabbage
Handle the rake and hoe;
I'm tired of waiting and watching
For the grasshopper bush to grow;
long for the time when spinach
Shall cope with bread and milk;
When hens shall lay bananas,
And horses spin raw silk.
Oh! sweet were the vanished hours,
When wandered along the glen
And wreathed my brow with tomatoes
And pluck the ripened hen;
When the donkey climbed on a trellis
And the cucumber chirped in the
grass,
And the sweet potato whistled
To Its mate in the mountain pass.
