Ere death sets my spirit free.
Hold me closer to your bosom,
Breathe with me silent prayer;
Don't you hear the angels singing
Over there, just over there ?
Oh heard them in my dreaming,
Through the dark and silent night,
And a bright and blessed vision
Came to me in dazzling light.
Through those golden gates half open,
All reSplendent and most fair,
Loved ones called to me to Join them
Over there, just over there
Loving sister, grieve not for me,
| but go awhile before,
And whene'er yOu come to join me,
I'll be at the open door.
Comfort all the absent loved ones,
They will come some day and share
The peaceful bliss and brightest glories
Over there, just over there !
Here | am, weary mourner,
Orphaned, widowed, childless too;
There the loved ones all are waiting,
Earth's own loved ties to renew.
Good night, brother, darling sister,
Fold your hands again prayer,
Very soon your own loved Alice
Will be there, just over there

Black Crook Statistics.

The statistics of the New
York Black Crook season are
curious and entertaining. o.
riginally presented September
II, 1866, it had Il run Of 474
performances, the receipts a.
mounting to $1,043,037. The
second production occurred De
cember u, 1870, when it con-
tinued for 154 representations,
the receipts aggregating $321,-
64G.50. December Is, 1871, it
again started on a run \of 100
nights, the managers pocket
ing $212,62I25. This makes a
grand total of $1,577, 1915,
and the receipts during the
present revival average fully as
high as any Of its predecessors
up to the time of the CONNER
cial smash.
Nearly three hundred people
are employed, including all, and
it costs nearly one Thousand
dollars every night the curtain
is rung up.

The old men must learn to act
fairly by their boys. In Mo
nongaheIa City old John Glenn
ems wouldn't give up all his
property to his son James, and
afterward when he went and got
a few step-mothcr for him the
spirited boy determined that
the thing should be stopped.-
So the boy procured a knife at
the nearest butchers stall and
ripped out the old mans bowels,
and then with the same knife
ripped out his own heart. This

Anecdote Of Charles
Matthews.

We are given to understand
that the following anecdote
of Charles Matthews, the ell
der, has not hitherto been in
print in this country. Mat
thews and Tattersall were very
intimate and the great comedian
was frequently in the habit OF
accompanying his friend to New
market, where, on one occasion,
Matthews indulged in his we'll
known taste for mimicry, at the
expense of Tattersall, during a
sale Of blooded stock condUc-
ted by the latter.
'The first lot, gentlemen" said
Mr.. Tattersall, sis a bay filly by
Smolensko," etc.
"The first lot, gentlemen"
echoed Mr.. Matthews, in pre-
cisely the same tone Of voice,
"is a bay fly by Smolensko,"
etc.
The auctioneer looked some
what annoyed, but proceeded.
"What shall we say to begin
with?"
"What shall we say to begin
WITH" replied the echo.
Still endeavOring to conceal
his vexation. Mr.. TattersaIl in
quiringly called out, Gone hum

oed Matthews.
"Thank you, sir" cried Tat

taken aback by his sudden ac-

the company enjoyed the joke
immensely.

Meeting Of Judges and
District ATTORNEYS,

Comptroller Burch has sent the
following circnlar to each of the
Judges and District Attorneys of
the State:
! COMPTROLLERS OFFICE.
NASHVILLE, Tenn Nov. &c, 1878 {
After consultation with some Of
the Judges and District Attorneys
Of the State l have concluded TO
request a meeting of the judges
having criminal jurisdiction, and
District Attorneys, in this city, on
Thursday, the 18th of January.
Your presence is earnestly solicit
ed.
AS yen are aware, the expendi-
ture for State prosecutions amount
to nearly one-haif the entir; an
nual expenses Of the whole State.
| believe that this amount, with
due allowance for the growth of
the State, can be greatly reduced
by the concurrent action of your
selves and associates. At least
some uniform rules as to the man
Iner of taxing costs in the differ.
!ent circuits can be adopted, ard
some needed reforms be forcibly
presented to the Legislature.
The time appointed will inter
fere with the holding Of some Of
the courts of the State, but [. ara
sure that the importance of the
subjects to bp discussed, and the
good to the people of the State
which will certainly follow, will
justify the adjournment of term
until a suitable time for the hold
ing of a special session.
| sincerely hope that you will
attend Come prepared to spend
the week in discussing, digesting
and perfecting the work for which
the meeting is called. In the
meantime | shall be pleased to re-
ceive any suggestion which YOU
may think proper to make relo-
tive to the PURPOSES of the assem-
blage. Respectfully,

The circulation Of forged pa
per money is greatly on the in
crease in Russia. At fair at
Nijni-Noygorod there were
quite openly two different Pri-
ces demanded for goods, accor-
ding to whether the price was
paid in genuine or forged notes.
The Circassians suffer most by
this, as they do not properly un-
derstand paper money. It is
said that most of the forged pa
per money is manufactured in
Siberia.

Almost a Bread Riot.
Suffering Among the Poor IN Pax :
tersOn, New jersey.

terSOn, New jersey.
A large number of working
men who received tickets for
work Oil the Patterson streets
last Friday, were not set to
work yesterday, because the
Street Committee had not been
able to provide tools for them.-
The workmen believed that
there were other reasons, and
became anxious for a distur-
bance. A crowd of several
hundred men marched through
the streets, and between 8 and
II o'clock threats were so fre-
.quent against William Cross
man, who has charge Of the city
hose house, that it was deemed
advisable to send a squad of po-
licemen to protect him, the men
alleging that he had plenty of
tools, but would not give them
out.
The crowd increased az it
marched, and from time to time
short speeches of an inflamma-
tory nature were made from
barrels and wagons. They
went to the Falls, and about $50
men stood around in the cold.-
Then they tore down fences ana
the rustic stairways to make
fire. After herring several
speeches 400 men formed in line,
four abreast, and walked to the
Grand street cut, where 40 men
by the city were at
work. They tried to induce
them to quit and join the pro-
cessiOn, but they refused. The
line was again formed and the
men marched to the City Hail,
and finding no one there to an
swer their questions, proceeded
to the Mayors office, where
Mayor Townsend delivered a
short address, explaining the
delay in providing work for
them A number of the men
cried out that they did not want
more delay, they wanted work.
After a great deal of leud tall,
the crowd dispersed.
The suffering among the poor
continues, and the charitable are
heavily taxed. Messrs. Hamil
e Booth have determined to re-
open their silk mills, and employ
Ill their old hands. The Citi-
,ens' Relief Committee has a.
lopted the Philadelphia plan
