Howe acknowledged that he did, and ex.

Then a conversation ensued, in which
Howe told incidents which occurred

Swaine well recollected, so that there was no

A little nearer to the sky. va

Out Of all our misery. -
Where alone Is heard the lark.
WarDling In the Infinite arc,
From the dawniDg 10 the dark.
Where the callow eaglsts wink
On the bare and breezy brink,
And SLOW pinions rise and sink.
Where the dim white breakers beat
Under cloud-drifts at our feet,
Singing, singing, low and sweet.
Where we see the glimmering bay
GreyIy melting far away,
On the confines Of the day.
Where the green larch-fringes sweep
Rocky defiles, still and steep,
Where the tender linchens creep.
Where the gentian blossoms blow,
Set In crystal STATS of snow;
Where The downward torrents now

Pure, as rom celestial seas.
Where the face OF heaven has smiled,
Aye on freedom, sweet and wild,
Aye on beauty, undefiled.
Where no sound of human speech,
And no human passions reach;
Where the angels sit and teach.
Where no troublous foot has trod;
Where is impressed on the sod

Sweet, what shall the answer be?

the legislaturs, In 1872 This act established
a society for the REFORMATION Of Juvenile
delinquents. and It required, for its support,
an annual collection OF $500. The only jus
tification for such action, by the state, is
that q ch places of amusement tend to cause
breaches of the peace, or to foster immor-
ality. But the theaters have concluded tn
test the truthfulness of this assumption,
and have issued an argument on the subject,
which will open anew the old discussion as
to the moral tendency Of theaters and Of the
dramatic profession. .a. =,
A petition to the British House OF Com
nous has been offered, signed by l46 clergy
men Of the Churchof England, and Several
other ministers of Cerist." The petition
ers state that in their opinion the opening
of museums, libraries, aud art galleries on
the afternoon OF Sunday, would greatly pro
mote the moral and intellectual improve
ment of large classes. and is thoroughly In
accordance with the christian Sunday. The

Every year increases the populari-
ty Of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
cd preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. It removes all cruptions
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, rs It stimulates and nourishes
the hair-gIands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vieor, and
will create "a new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco-
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A, Hayes, MD
State AssaYer of Massachusetts, says,
eThe constituents arc pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and / consider it the BEST PREpA-
RATION for its intended purposes.

what Statesmen Talk About.

From the New York SUM-
The other day Senator Morrill,, OF
Maine, and Speaker Blaine were walk
ing by the States Hotel, Saratoga, ap
parently in deep conversation. Several
journalists watched them as they passed,
and thinking that the third term was
under discussion one journalist re-
marked to Sam Cox,
I'D like to know what those politi'
ticians are talking about. I'd give five
dollars to know"
"You would2" said Mr.. Cox. Then
I'll ask them" Then turning round he
caught Blaine by the sleeve and told him
what the journalist had said.
"Well, said Speaker Blaine, " / was
telling dog story. >,
What was it2 No concealment now,
said Mr.. Cox
"Well," said Blaine. Colonel E. S.
Sanford, of Brooklyn, and l were trav-
elling down South. The food had been
bad for day or two, when one day at a
railroad station we had big plate of
hash. Cononel Sanford stuck his knife
into it and looked at it kinder curiously,
when the landlord remarked:
"You needn't be afraid of that thar
dish, stranger, as long as bull pups are
worth more than hogs.

UNCLE JonN's LAST RAGE.-Unc!c
John Harper is dead. The famous
bluegrass lurfman, the owner OF
Longfcllow, Littlcton and hundreds
of other splendid racers, has run the
great race "from cen to Gen." and has
at last been brought back to the
."Judge's stand" to answer any charges
of !"four' entered against him. lie
was some seventy odd years in run
ming ais race against Time, but
couldn't conquer, and has done we'll if
he got 10 place." He died at bis
home in Woodford county last We'd
nesday, and with him carries the rec
ord of an honest turfman. lie has
been the capturer Of many purse
from the Magnolia Course to Mon
mouth Park, and had won fame that
will not die with his death. He was
kinder to his horses than to himself,
and gave them softer beds to lie on:
The old mans heart was entwiucd
about the sleek, beautiful form OF
Longfellow, and when tho pride of
his life pulled up lame after a brave
fight, tears which camc slow at the
sight of a murdered sister, ran like a
running stream, though he was said
to be fond of his kinsiolk. No won
der! the knotty old bachelor had
siven his whole heart to his horse.
A more old-fashioncd place than
the Harper homestead is not known
in America. Ithas been in the quaint
unlettcred family slncc the carly set
Element of Kentucky.
