4 SPIRITUAL SONG.


BY GEORGE MACDONALD.
The times are all so fearful!
The heart so full of cares
To eyes that question fearful
The future spectral stares.
wild terrors creep and hover
With foot SO ghastly soft;
The soul black midnights cover,
Like mountains piled aloft.
Firm props like reeds are waving,
For trust is left no stay;
The thoughts, with whirlpool-raying.
No more the will obey.
Frenzy, with eye resistlcss.
Dccoy's from Truths defense;
Lifc's pulse is tagging listless,
And dull is every sense.
Who hath the cross upheaved,
To shelter and make whole?
Who lives from sight received
That he may help the soul?
Haste to the tree of wonder
Give silent longing room;
Outgoing flames asunder
Will cleave the phantom gloom.
Draws thee an angel tender
In safety on the strand
Lo at thy feet in splendor,
Outsprcads the promised land.
--!Scribner's for Ma.

"SAp, BUT TRUE" Such is the head
ing of an item in the Chicago Journal,
wherein it is recorded that forty small
boys, whose ages vary from seven to
thirteen years, are at present confined
in the Cook county jail. Forty children
locked up in the filthy cells of a prison
in the companionship of murderers,
thieves and pickpockets Is not this a
spectacle for angels and for men?

THE Saturday RcuieW says that dur
ing the reign Of Isabella H., in spite of
perpetual violations of constitutional
right, Spain increased more rapidly in
material prosperity than any other part
of Europe, and that the country is far
richer and more populous than at the
close of the old Carlist war, and conse-
quently it may be expected that any SER
ious interruption of national progress
now will SO disturb the general compla-
cency as to make the mass of the public
acquiesence in the only mode yet known
to it of saving society-the rule of a
monarch.

HIS LAST JOKE. "A brilliant instance
of joking under difficulties lately occur
red at Red Bluff, California. The joker
was M. j. Donohue, whose span of life
had been limited by due process of law.
He came to the scaffold in buoyant spir-
its, and seemed to be delighted at the
prospect of getting out of the world so
soon. His remarkable gayety complete
ly unnerved the Sheriff and other execu-
TONERS, and twenty or thirty friends who
were to see him off When the Sheriff
put the moose over Donohue's head, he
turned to the officer with bland smile.
and said: 81 say, Sleeth, can't you put
that under my arms? L was always
ticklish around the neck" These were
the humorist's last words.

Advertising IN Duh Times.

The Milwaukee Hisconsia relates the follow
ing AFTER the crash Of 1857, when every
body was almost scared to death and the
croakers predicted tha: the country had gone
to smash, dry goods house va, opened in this
city, which proceeded OIL the principle that in
order to reach the boarded money ia the poek
cts Of the people the proprietors must sell ut
very reasonable prices aud advertise very large
~. They worked vigorously upon this prin-
crle. Their brother merchants who did not
advertise predicted that the new corners would
be ruined, rs they paid too much for adgeEiis-
Ing. Nevertheless, they pres;sted. In sin
gle year they paid live hundred dollars in gold
70 the DAILY Wisconsin, for Advertising, aud at
The end Of seven years they retired from busi-
ness with fortune Of one hundred thousand
dollars, while othcs merchants on the same
street, soma Of them opposite their store had
failed"
We remember sin liar instance among our
own advertisers in the panic Of 1857. A
merchant continued It's advertisement 10 our
columns through tbe whole period Of stagna-
ton, aud Notwithstanding many predictions
that '' it wouldn't pay" His testimony after
ward was that his sales were steady aud his
profits satisfactory, while many merchant
aroupd him, who couldn't afford to adver-
tise," saw bis clerks stand idle bebinl the
counters
financial panic does not mean that no one
has any money There is plenty Of money in
the country. and those who boardedit are just
the ones to be eager for the =" bargains " which
fall 10 prices holds out. But to buy they
must know where to buy. and the merchant
who tells them will receive their cash.-Nsw

The Shenandoah Valley Railroad.

Your Valley readers, whose hearts have been
set on the early completion of The Shenandoah
Valley road, have again received shock, and
it is believed here that tie thing will never
again be resusctated, at least uot under It's
present patronage Il was told at Richmond
with soI1e confidence, as Won may remember
that the Pennsylvania Railroad Comp was
to endorse the bonds Of the Shenandoah VAL
ley company, aud the" ubiquitous Dir Seott
WAS made its president, and Mr. Jonas Walker
a railroad dealer, it, vice-president. ~ every
thing looked very pleasant. But a'litte speek
has shaded the horiz N Of the Shenandoah VAL
ley, and it has been discovered that three mil
lions and a half of its bonds have lain IN The
vacts of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
awaiting the endorsement. Of that company,
and which Mr. Edgar Thompson has Pertine-
ciously heretofore refused, aud still doth re-
fuse to the great dana e" OF the contractors,
wlo swarm around headquarters rs bees
around hive. Rumor has il that Mr Thorn
sun did not please Mr.. Scott great deal by
lis refusal, aud that Mr. Scott did not fail
plainly to indicate his displeasure. Yet " The
dgurc-head" has remained iu;ractable. Scott
has retired from the presidency Of the Sben-
audoah Valley railroad, and since work ha-
been suspended thereon the yice-president has
gone to California in bis private interests.
Application was made to the Philadelphia
and Reading road to take the Shenandoah VAL
ley railroad under its care aud to endorse its
construction bonds. and the proposition Is N :
der serious adyisement Should it be acceded
to the line Of the road will be changed so as 10
pass through Martiusburg instead Of Shep-
herdstowu. or course can give you no idea
If the result of this applicaiion-the bard
times may compel delay-yct the rivalry be-
tween the Reading aud Pennsylvania road may
DO much to make a promise Of help. But
there is little reliance TO be placed in the pro-
misses Of railroad Philadelphia Cores

The Late Scare.


There is abundant evidence that tho lat,

There has been not only too much corrupt leeis-
latiou aud too much stealing, but too general

Tender and sweet the whole day long

The music that breathes from each blade Of grss
In undertone deep aud low?

The brown toad bid in the tree,
To the tiniest insect Of them all

And from twilight till peep Of morn
Is rythmical pulse in the drcamiu night,

As the gold ofthe Summer about US foats,
Soft melody crowneth the hsze

Through these tunelul autumn days,
