Poetry
OUT WITH THE TIDE.

Chill and murk the twilight falls,
AS the tide streams out TO the bay,
Come close to my side. oh, faithful one
And kiss me again, pray;
For my life is ebbing along with the tide
Ebbing and passing away.
Fling wide the lattice-the sunset one
That looks on the open sea
love TO hear the plaintive waves
Which ever seem calling to me
Now take our babe from his cradle soft
And place him upon your knee.
How lovely he looks. with the dainty flush,
Like sea -shell's tint on his ch eek
Our lives have been happy, have they. not
Though poor, we were gentle and meek
Nay, do not cry grleve to see
Those tears on a manly cheek.
Place him back once more in his crib
Though never again he may see
The light of love in those fading eyes.
He will not be far from me-
shall nightly guard his gentle sleep,
And keep him pure and free.
Now raise me up on your massive arm,
That has teiled for US both SO long
Kiss me again, and let me watch
The dark waves sweep along,
And hear the voice of the night-wind come.
With it's sad and dirge-like song.
Out with the tide l-afar, affair
But not to an unknown sea
For, look the lighthouse now is lit,
And its lamps are flashing free;
Out with the tide but not dear love.
Not always away from thee

DIVIDING THE Rope. One of the seen

DIVIDING THE ROPE One of the scenes
at the execution of the negro murderer Jim
Browo at Suffolk, Friday, seems to have
escaped all the reporters. After the body
had leen cut down, crowd gathered
around the gallows and clamored for pieces
of the rope with which the ssfclon had been
hung. The sheriff, good-na turedly, cut it
up into small pieces and distributed it among
the crowd, each one Of which, Judging from
the eagerness displayed, regarded himself
as the possessor of talismau Of priceless
value. 1t is superstitious belief Of some
people that be who obtains piece of the
rope with which man is hanged will not
have bis sleep disturbed by unpleasant
dreams. Others firmly believe that piece
Of the rope carried in the pocket, will pro-
tect its possesser from rhumatism. Wheth
er those people were actuated by either of
these motives is more than the writer can
tell. He merely records the fact Norfolk
