THE OUTLOOK FOR INFANCY.


A boat lay on the summer sea,
The light waves round it leaping,
While laughing sunbeams, bright and free,
Played o er an infant sleeping.
And far away the bark in glee
Was DER the bright deep straying,
While all around the dimpling sea
With zephyrs soft was playing.
And o twas sweet, around that child
To see the rippcs dancing;
And DER its brow, so soft and mild,
The sunbeams brightly glancing.
And o | wished that naught might break
The angel-spell that bound it,
Or from its dreams the spirit wake,
That played so soft around it.
But when far of upon the sky
! saw the tempest lower,
A mournfnl tear bedimmed mine eye E.
For that unconscious flower.
For still that bark, so fral and bright,
Was o er the pillows sweeping;
And still within, MS fair and bright,
That infant form lay sleeping.
turned away, for who could see
That child awake to sorrow,
The brightest smile so swift TO flee
''That earth from heaven may borrow
For well knew the angry wave
Would soon in wrath surround it,
And MAKE its wild and lonely grave
Mid ocean weeds that bound it.
All thus, methought, on life's frail tide
We make our youthful pillow
And gaily DER its waters glide,
From billow on to hilow.
But all too soon the angry storm
Blots ont each vision brightest,
And oft, alas it wraps the form
In which the heart beats lghtest.

Here Annie lost her needle and went
down on the floor to hunt it,
Now, Annie" her mother went on,
"Tm gettin, old, know that, but hav-
emit quite lost my eyesght yet, nor my

faint fair to be tryin' to come it over
your old mother"
Thus adjured, our small feminine Ma
chiavcl made a clean breast of it, much
relieved to find that mother ''hadn't moth
in agin him, and would give father
talkin to about it an bring him around"
+" But, Annie" said Mrs. Moore, dry

David never heard the last OF that kiss
in the dark. Old Squire Moore, ofcoursc
heard of it, and used to take great de-
light in $ yly alluding to the circumstance
when all the parties concerned happened
to be present. He would shake his bur
" sides with laughter at David's discom-
future and his wife's tart replies, while
Annie would side with her father and
poke sly fun at her sweetheart, and then
both Of them would laugh again at the
other two until the tears ran down their
cheeks.
Never mind, David" Mrs Moore
would say consolingly to the abashed
lover, 'let them laugh. He'd have been
only too glad to have been in your place
thirty years ago He had hard work to
get kiss from me then hope the
occurrence will be lesson to you and

A HUSBAND Sold. Some years since,
when all the world was mad upon lotto
res, the Irish cook Of a middle-aged sin
gle gentleman drew from his hands her
earnings and savings Of some years. Her
employer was anxious to know thccause,
and she told him that, having repeatedly
dreamed that certain number was
great prize, she had bought the whole
ticket. He called her a fool for her pains
and never lost a chance to tease her on
the subject She seemed to take all his
taunts in good humor, saying it would
all turn out right by-and-by. One morn
ing he opened his paper at breakfast and
saw it announced that the very numbers
which Bridget had dreamed and bought
had drawn the great prize, SO, 600
Bridget was summoned, aud the willy
gentleman proceeded to inform her that
he had long valued her as friend, and
being DESTROYS to settle himself for life
he would be willing to make her his
wife, if she had no objection. Bridget
had always thought him dear, good
man, and would be glad to please him
So he finished his breakfast, told Bridget
to put on her best things, the parson was
sent for, aud made them one that very
morning.
After it was all over the cautious hus-
band said to his bride; "Well, Bridget,
you have made two good hits to-day !;
you have got a good husband, and now
bring me the lottery ticket you and l
have laughed 50 much about"
please don't laugh any more about
that, / knew there was nothing in them
dreams; and sold it to the butcher a
month ago p

Poverty OF FARMERS. Illinois aud
Iowa papers are wailing over the poverty
Of the farmers there, who, though in the
midst of agricultural superabundance are
hardly able to keep their heads above
water, owing to high railroad frcights,
high interest and taxes, and tariffs that
Cypress them for the benefit of the man
ufacturer. One of the Iowa papers says:
at costs the farmer two loads of pota-
toes to buy pair Of winter boots. II he
stays in town over night, he will eat a
load of oats. His wife wears five acres
of wheat, and each of the children about
ten acres of corn and they arc not very
warml y clad then. For an overcoat he
wears u good four-year-old steer; and if
he sports a Sunday suit, it is in the shape
of at least twenty fat hogs. On the top
of this, his farm wears mortgage that
is worse than bard pan to the soil and
the annual tax rots into his roof worse
than rain. He must cat and wear, and
from the small price of his produce he
must pay to the manufacturers the artili-
cial profit which the tariff puts upon his
goods, while the profit which the farmer
should realize goes to the railroad corpo-
rations for taking his crops to market"
At a recent meeting of the New York
Chamber Of Commerce the president said
that "a gentleman had told him Of a
large farmer who had come into Wes-
tern town with a load of fifty bushels of
corn, and for those fifty bushels Of corn
he had only been able to purchase keg
of nails. '--Am. Land and Law Adotser.

News by Mondays Mail.

We published an extra, Monday last, soon after the arrival of the mail, and now note the principal items therein:
 The destruction, by fire, of Hamilton, Ne vadI, should be warning to all dwellers in towns on the coast. Hamilton was the prin cipal town in White Pine district.
 We like the item from the Los Angeles Star, saying that several bars of bullion had arrived there from Cerbat, in Wallapai dis trict, Arizona.
 ENCOURAGING RAILROAD NEWS.
 Col. Hyde, of the Southern Pacific Rail road Co.,, has arrived in Los Angeles, and said to reporter of the Star, that active op- eratiOns would, in less than A month, be com menced at Los Angeles Here are his words: "You may assure the people of Los Angeles that the work will be fully inaugurated here within month. As soon as the road mate rial now ordered arrives, men will commence 10 lay the track. The graders will be set at work as soon as the entire right of way of the lands along the road have been trans ferred."
 AIr c. P. Huntington was expected at Los Angeles, to take look at the country. The opinion is that having disposed of his interest in the C. P. road, Inc will now devote time and money to building the $. P. railroad.
 This is encouraging to Arzonans. The & P. road can be extended to the western boundary of our Territory in less than one year.

Tucson Citizen Sayings---With
 Miner Comments.

We see by the Citizen of June 28, that Mr. J. [. Roberts, agent for White Mountain Apaches, had notified Mir. l.. c. Hughes, of Tucson, that he had taken from Indians some animals recently stolen from whites, and was prepared to give said animals to their right ful owners.
 The Citizen defends our delegate in Con gress for having pocketed back-pay. We are on record as opposing his action in this matter; that is if he has really taken back pay, and no sort of reasoning can cause us 70 feel otherwise. Even should he lose in mile age, he owes it to himself and the Territory be represents to return to the National treasury the money which public robbers voted him and themselves. Right is right.
 The proprietor of the Citizen has pur- chased some new printing material for his office.
 Nr Peter R. Brady, of Florence, speaking, in the Citizen, on the recent trouble with the Pima Indians, asks this pertinent ques- ton:
 would like to inquire why Louis Muaga Pima Ibdi who iRdctsd for murder al Ast term of the U Disirc Court has no b@sn arresied He is here th and the other day stole Justice Summers horse.
 The MISER would also like to know tho reason of this derilection of duty. Indian: must, sooner or later, come under our laws and the Pimas ought to be the first Indians to do this same thing.
 Gov Safiord had appointed Samuel A. Pc terson Notary Public for Mohaye county.
 The Citizens of Tucson had voted against taxing themselves for the purpose of building aSutablc school-hOuse, for, why, is not sta ted.
 Anthony Dorman. a law-freed murderer had left Tucson, after having beaten anothe man almost to death.

Indians and Their Treatment.

We have now no fault to find with the be- hayiour of the Apaches, most of whom, we believe, are upon reservations, drawing full rations. Upon all but one of these reserya- tions Gen. Crook and his officers exert con trol and influence, aud there appears to be no clashing between the military and the agents of the Indian department. This is right and proper.
 One day of last week, small scouting par ty under Lieutenant Schuyler, killed a bad Apache iD the vicinity of Bradshaw moun- tam.
 How different the Indian situation of the present from that of the past, when un- der the prayer and present policy, the Apaches used to plan raids on their reservations, go out, kill, rob, and return to their well be loved agents, who always screened the mur- derous wretches.
 In times past, the MINER used to Ego for ' Commissioner of Indian Affairs, Parker That we were not wrong in suspcionng him of being an unworthy man and officer. and fit tool for the Indian Ring plunderers, will be seen by the following:
 Washington. June 2i.A new York special say. the ip vestgsOn which his follow s inc pasas of the MGutana War Claim n the Treasury Department uneovers some of the OperatiOOs Of The old Indian Ring It alleged that h. dian contract sought he iuhenes of Mrs Anna saeket the mgihers-ls~ Of ihs late Commissioner Of Iaaa Al iars Parker. contract was secured aud ia addition appointment obtained fr Jusley proceed with the goods and take charge of the distribution For the serv. ice thus performed by Mrs Saoketi Jnslsy paid n Montana claims 70 ins Of s so.
