To the old farm where !, a,child, .gvFs
Sported With laugh and sopg. IA 4
That dear old farm a sunny spot
Twill iyein memory ever;l5e "a
III ne'er forget my childhood's home
Beside the restless river.
Az memory takes use back, far back,
All other days have fed,
And I'm . little girl once more,
At play with brother Ned "a
Once more, thro' woods and meade W. green.
We roam the long long day:
Or meath the orchards frsgran, shade
We pass the hours In play.
In the old home we meet again
With loved ones as OF yore
And the gay laugh and music sweet
Sound on the air once more.
Around the table can sec
Each well.rem EN- bered face:
They all are there-a happy group
Each in his own old place.
Those happy times; they could not last;
One calm sweet summers day
The golden gates were opened wide,
Aud father passed away
He passed away--the gates were closed;
But long the path he trod
bright and shining light wa. cast,
To guide US home TO God.
The noble river still flows on,
Past that old homestead door,
But strangers stand within it now,
Wen meet thsre-never morsl
For times are chsnged--old friends are gone
Aud chldhood's fed forever;
But we shall all soon gather home,
Beyond the rolling river.

THE COURTS.
The Ring Trials-Case Of IngersOu and

Prosecution and Defence.
BUSINESS I'm TINE OTHER COURTS.

In the United States District Court yesterday,
Mr.. Clarkson N. Potter, acting as counsel on be-
half OF Brown Brothers Co., presented 10 Judge
Biatchford copy OF an order relative 20 the pro-
posed sale OF 600 shares OF Lake Shore stock, held
by Brown. Brothers & Co. as security for 100000
which they had loaned at six per cent 20 George
Bird Grinnell Co., whose affairs have been placed
in bankruptcy. The order was handed by counsel
to the Judge IN open court, but it was not read.
Counsel said he had drawn the order so that by
Its terms, IL would constrain Brown, Brothers Co.
to sell the shares question, as they did not de-
sire it should appear that they were anxious TO
dispose of them at their own option. Judge Blatch-
ford said he would read the order carefully and see
that 1t was put in such language as would protect
the rights OF all the parties concerned.
In the case OF The People VS.. Ingersoll and Far
rington the prosecution closed the case and the
defence went Into testimony without any formal
opening. The trial may probably be brought TO
close to-day.
