From the "Keystone ("
Unpublished Poem by Burns.

Scoon and Perth Masonic Lodge, known as
No. 3, the oldest Lodge in Scotland, has become
possessed of a very interesting relic of Burns,
which is understood to be hitherto Unpublished.
1t is addressed to "Mrs. w. Riddle, Haleaths."
The poem appears to have been written on three
pages of sheet of letter paper, the following
note occupying the first page: "Mrs. W. Rid
die, Haleath-The health you wished me in
your mornings card is, think, flown from me
for ever. have not been able to leave my bed
to-day till abous/ u our ago. Those wickedly
unlucky adverti: v = lent Il did wrong) to
a friend, and a..s~nf able to go in quest of him.
The following d. Ihed staHzas intend to in
terweave in some xsstlous tale of shepherd,
"'Despairng Eside clear stream"
L'amOur: toujoms romour!
Votte subito
The trout in yonder whipping burn
There glides, silver dart,
And safe beneath the shady thorn
Dehes the anglers art;
MY life was once that careless stream,
That wanton trout was 1;
But love wiz unreienting beam
has scorched my fountains dry.
That little noweret's peaceful lot
Which, save T the hi iiinfnietTs light, wot
No ruder visits knows,
Was mine, till Love has DER me passed,
And blighted "a my bloom;
And now beneath the withering blast
My youth and joy consume.
The wakend av'rock warbling springs,
And climbs the early sky
Wnnowing blythe his dewy wings
In mornings rosy eye;
As little reckt sorrows power,
Until the fowry
o. witchng love, in luckless hour,
Made me the thrall o. care.

A CONVENIENT WAY TO MEASURE LAND.-lt is
frequently desirable to measure given plat OF
ground or portion of field, and simple
method, such as the following, for which we
are indebted to an exchange, will be OF use to
MANY of our readers. Surveyors are not al
ways at a convenient distance to attend to such
little jobs, and even when they do reside in
the immediate vicinity one does not always
care to incur the expense incident to such
small Job. If the lines are already established
the plat can be measured with sufficient accu
racy tor all practical purposes by means OF
neat rod pole, made as follows Procure
stick of pine, white wood bass wood, or almost
any other timber, one and a half inches square
and sixteen and one-halfieet long. Dress end,
tapering from the middle, so that the pole will
be one and a-half inches square at the middle
and about half an inch square at each end
Such a pole will be light and stiff Now grad
uate one side with the marks representing feet
and inches, and graduate another side to indl-
cate surveyors links. A pole one rod IN length
must be equal to twenty-fv links. To divide
one side correctly let mechanics compass be
adjusted so that the points will divide the dis
tance into twenty-five equal spaces or links
A line can be measured with such pole near
ly as accurately as with surveyors chain.
Now, then, il person does not understand
how to multiply chains and links, let him com
pute the measurement by square feet. In one
acre there are 1850 square feet. Any intelli-
gent school boy can measure the length and
breadth of a square plot, multiply the one by
the other, and divide the product by 1850,
which will give the number of acres and the
number of square feet representing the frac-
ton of an acre. 1t is desirable to measure a
triangular plat, two sides of which lie at right
angles, measure these two sides, multiply the
distance in feet one by the other, and divide
that product by two, which will indicate num-
ber of square feet by 1850 and the quotient
will represent the number of acres.

DsS~The ways of the wicked are various
The way it is managed in Oakland, California,
since the local option has carried the day, aud
no more liquor is sold by retail, is thus:
Thirsty Customer.-Mr. Barkeeper, what will
five gallons and gill of your best whiskey
cost?
Mr.. B.-$3O.25.
L. C.-Cheap enough. III take it.
Demijohn is handed down. L. C. takes a nip,
smacks his lips, and informs Mr.. B. that on the
whole he thinks he will not keep the balance
and suggests that Mr.. B. shall buy it back
Mr. II always ready for bargain, offers $3O.lO
for (which offer 4. G. accepts, paying the Is
cents difference. You see he "seis short on
bourbon, eler l5.''
-, -se tts, iaishes pressing variety in
rns5Ts, but the same result:
We at length reached the hotel again, and
proposed glass of brandy and water. My
ftiend looked at me and then at the landlord
and then the landlord at me and then at my
flend. Perplexity overspread the countenance
d both. such O. thing as drop OF liquor is
not to be had in the place." said the land
brd.
Bought, you mean," retorted my friend.
"Bought, mean," was the answer.
Then bo.h eyed me significantly.
| could not explain how badly [ wanted it,
and could only give vent to my feelings in
sigh.
dithout word the landlord disappeared
within the recesses of a small room behind the
office desk, and presently came forth with two
empty tumblers iii his hand. These be placed
apon the desk.
But where is the liquor?" l inquired
The law forbids me to sell it," he said, ,''and
dare not disobey the law. If you can find
any here you are welcome to it," saying whic!
he accidentally turned back the breast cf u
coat. The neck OF bottle peeped forth IIr.s
the inside pocket. He winked his eye at il.
and winked my eye at him, after which i
drew forth the bottle. He family struggled to
prevent the daring robbery upon which l was
bent, but proved inexorable.
"My private bottle kept for medicinal pur
poses, and not for sale, he moaned, as he pour
ed out the liquor for myself and the worthy
Chairman of the Parish Committee. "ifave
some water, gentlemen!' ~ he added with aijcri-
ty.
We drank, and 1 replaced the bottle in The
repository whence | had taken it. Then put
a dollar in his hand.
"What is this for ? che asked, as he deposited
il in his waistcoat pocket, and gave me half
dollar in change.
"Fer bushel Of OATS" answered. "Keep
them until | send for them'
"Ah, sir,' said the landlordj with an air of
vrtuous resignation, "the prohibitory law has
done world OF good in stopping the sale of
liquors. It's severe law on us, but it's good
ode."

On tree there sat a crow,

On the ground, a fox, below,

Sang, and dropped the cheese below.

And he calmly lngged it off,
And he scolfed the song with scoff.

Iz5~ Selma, Ala, preacher has, accord
ing to a Southern exchange, been telling his
congregation a strange yarn. We hope he
preached "to the marines;" but his audience
was colored, and he himself the hue Of ebony.
The negro is credulous.
He said that young man, living in one of
the many towns that he had VISITED, asked a
young lady to accompany him to church on the
Sabbath day. She replied, pettishly, that her
hair had not been curled, and that she would
go to the bad place with her eyes wide open be-
tore she would venture to church with her hair
uneurled. And she wentnot, at that time; but
the next Sunday, having gotten her curls ad-
justea, she ventured out and listened patiently
10 The sermon nPetthi nhPetth idIsriissed she MUyed 10
-setSr, DuJ IeII, on reaching The portal,
with her feet to the door and her head towards
the pulpit. As she fell her clothing CRACKED
like Chinese crackers exploding, and on exam
ning her face it was found that her eyellds
were completely gone. She was dead, but it
was impossible to close her eyes, because of the
loss of the lids. When her friends crowded
around to raise her up they found themselves
unable TO move her. The sequel showed that
it took twelve strong men to lift her from the
floor and twelve to put her in her cotfin. ltalso
required the united eXertlons OF twelve minis
ters to preach her funeral-an exceeding hea y
job doubtless. When the last sad rites were
being observed, the lid of the coffin suddenly
raised of its own accord, and something ''abort
the size of black cat, but which was not a
black cat" leaped out And as this creature
Jumped from the coffin to the floor it cried
aloud to the petrifed audience, "Wait! wait !
wait until l curl my hair!" GAS | expect to
answer in the day of judgment" said the sable
divine, ~ saw this scene with my own eyes,
and it was Just as | have told it~

Tan Coop BYE Hosp1TALIrY--The half Of
hospitality lies in the speeding of parting
guests. Lavish welcomes are easily enough
bestowed but the hospitable thought must be
very genuine indeed, which dares to leave the
guest as free and welcome to go as to come
We all suffer, now and then, an undue ur-ing
to stay when we prefer to go, and nearly every
one # us is himself sinner in this regard, too.
No sooner does the guest intimate wish to
terminate his visit than we fly in The face OF
his desire, and urge him to stay longer. We
sometimes do this, too, (do we not?j as mat
ter Of duty, when, in our hearts, we care very
little whether the guest goes or stays. We feel
ourselves bound to show our appreciation OF our
friends visit by asking that he proiong It,
Now, true hospitality ought to learn its lesson
better than this.
Our efforts should be from first TO last to
make our friends visit thoroughly pleasant
and agreeable to him. 1t is the desire to do
this which prompts us to offer him the most
comfortable chair and to set our best viands, if
he break bread with us 1t is that ne msy en-
Joy his stay that we talk only upon agreeable
topics. In short, from the time he crosses our
threshold until he rises to leave we courteously
endeavor to make the moments slip ~ as pleas
antly as possible. But the moment he asks for
his hat our courtesy fails US. Hitherto we have
studied to anticipate and to crafty every wish.
Now that he wishes to go, however, we endeav-
or to thwart his pleasure. We selfshy try to
turn him from his purpose to ours. We wish
him to stay, while he wishes to go Courtesy
would prompt US to give his wish precedence
to our own, but as rule, We ask him to sacrl-
fee his own to our pleasure.

Mrs. SpRAGUE AND HER REvERsEs.-There is
no one more missed from Washington than Mrs.
Sprague, whose gentle, graceful manners made
her beautiful, aristoratc face eagerly welcomed
by the fashionable frequenters OF our VANITY
Fair" The sorrows that came to her were felt
by all, and no woman has ever descended so
gracefully from the dizzy heights OF fortune as
She; called in the heyday of her prosperity the
queen of American society, she is in her adver-
sity still queen. When the order was issued
by the Holts of New York for the seizure of
Senator Sprague's property, Of course the fam
lily residence was taken. Mrs. Sprague, with
her charming children, gathered up her per-
sonal belongings in the shape Of pictures,
| statuary, etc., and moved out to Edgewood, the
| late residence of her iamented fether, and there
| in great secluson she lives Her luxurious
| carriage has given place to a rockaway, and her
| retipue of servants reduced to four. We saw
her the other evening at charitable entertain
| ment. She wore deep mourning; her face was
| pallid and careworn but her smile was just as
| sunny and her voice just as CHEEKY as when
| there was nothing but peace and wealth about
| her. Several years had come and gone, each
to us freighted with memories and perplexities; /;
| but we retained in our mind a vivid picture OF
| Mrs Sprague as we saw her standing in the
| portico at the White House one evening, giving
| the hour for the return of her carriage to the
driver. She was the arm Of her honored
| father, in whom was centered her fondest and
| widest ambition, and was draped IN robe
fashioned of soft shimmering silk, over which
fell foaming waves OF priceless lace. And there
were Jewels about her throat, and amid the
sunny tresses of her bonnie brown hair was a
diamond star. She was the observed of all OBJ
servers as she passed in the brilliant gasllght
through the door at the White House. The
vision was so beautiful that we have always
had it warm and fresh in our memory! All
honor to Ohio's brave daughter, who in pros
psrity and adversely is still acknowledged
aQueen of Society."-Froma Washington Letter.

We ALL HAVE FAULTs.-He who boasts of be-
ing perfect is perfect in his folly. have been a
good deal up and down in the world, and never
did see either o perfect horse or perfect man,
and never shall until two Sundays come to-
gether. You can not get white flour out of
coal-sack, nor perfection out of human nature;
he who looks for it had better look for sugar in
the sea. The old saying is, ''lifeless faultless.
of dead men we should say nothing but good,
but as for the living, they are all tarred more
or less with the black brush, and half an eye
can see it. Every head has a soft place in it
and every heart has its black drop. Every
rose has its prickles, and every day its night.
Even the sun shows spots, and the skies are
darkened with clouds. Nobody is so wise but
he has folly enough to stock stall at Vanity
Fair. Where | could not the FOOLS cap l
have nevertheless heard the bells jingle. AS
there is no sunshine without some shadows, so
all human good is mixed up with more or less
of evil even poor-law guardians have their
little falings, and parish beades are not Who'll
ly of heavenly nature. The best wine has its
lees. All mems faults are not written on their
| foreheads, and it's quite well they are not
or hats would need wide brims yet sure as
| eggs are eggs, faults of some kind nestle in
| every mans bosom. There's no telling when
mans faults may show themselves for hares
| pop out of ditch ust when you are not look
| ing for them. A horse that is weak III the
| knees may not stumble for a mile or two, but il
is in him, and the rider had better hold him VI
we'll. The tabby cat is not tapping milk just
now, but leave the dairy door open ,and we viii
see if she is not as bad thief as the kitten
There's fire in the flint, cool as it looks wait
till the steel gets q knock at it, and you will
see Every body can read that riddle but it is
not every body that will remember to keep his
| Cunpowder out Of the way Of the candle.

DoN'r Go THERE.-The Danbury Ne,os says:
One of our young men has ceased to make calls
at certain house. 1t appears that he went
the other night from an oyster supper, and on
her father appearing at the door observed =
"Hallo, old tadpole where is the floating ga
zelle? where is my love now dreaming? This
seemed to indicate that something was want.
ing, SO he placed his hand sadly on the young
mans shoulder, slowed away large amount of
leather under his coat tail, and then retired in
to the house. The young man doesn't go there
