Twilight in Winter.
DY W. W. STORY.

Once more l stand beneath this spreading
beech,
Where talking, dreaming, loving, we have lair
So many happy day.
Now thou art gone beyond thoughts utmost
reach,
Beyond the Joy we knew, the love, the pain,
Out on the dim, dark way.
The problem is resolved for thee, but /,
Crushed, questioning, despairing, still remain
And nothing thou wilt say.
Is love so weak thou dost not heed my cry:
Is memory SO vanishing, 50 vain,
That death wipes all away
o cruel secret, wilt thou neer be told
y torturing Nature, that vast once bliss,
youchsafed in love to us,
Why hast thou kept those persisted joys of old,
Those hours and days of vanished happiness,
To sting me with them thus
Let me forget oh, blind these eyes that look
Forever backward to that happy past,
Behind her grave that lies
Oh, hold not up that sad pathetic book
or loves sweet records In that grave be cast
Those torturing memories.
Let me forget All, how can l forgot?
And what we're life without that tender pain,
So deep, and oh, so sad
No; rather let these sorrowing eyes DO wet
With endless useless tears, than e'er again
With heartless smiles be glad
The blast among moaning branches greVes,
And frozen is the the laughter of the brook
Death on the cold earth lies.
All fallen are my joys like these glad leaves,
Through whose green haunt5 of song the
summer shook
Odors and melodies.
Let me begone my thoughts are wild and
hard,
BY grief distracted, shiyered, shattered, torn
In struggles fierce and vain
And like those strings to tones disoordant
Jared,
Are all those sweet remembra noes forloru,
That thrill through heart and brain.
Farewell upon this life turn my back,
Nothing the world can give is good to me,
a faint on all things lies
Joys are all poisons-life an endless rack
And this fair earth, that was heaven to thee,
Ia dideous to my eyes.

~ Want to Find My Papa.

A lady was walking along the
street in Poughkeepsie, N. Y, says
the Eagle, when she met a little girl,
between two and three years old, evi-
IDENTITY lost, and crying bitterly. TAX
ing her by the hand the lady asked
her where she was going. "I'm 60
ing down town to find my papa"
was the reply, between sobs, of the
child. "What is your papa's name ?"
asked the lady, His name is papa"
replied the innocent little thing.
"But what is hir other name ?"queried
the lady; what does your mama
call him o. "She calls him papa"
persisted the baby. The lady then
took the little one by the hand and
led her along, saying, you had better
come with me; ! guess you came
from this way. "Yes, but | don't
want to go back. want to find my
papa" replied the little girl. crying
alreSb as if her heart would break.
what do you want Of your papa 2
asked the lady, Il want to kiss him. -"
just then sister OF the child came
along looking for her and led her
away From subsequent inquiries it
appeared that the little ones papa,
whom she was so earnestly in search
Of, bad recently died, In her lone
somencss and love Tor him she tired
OF waiting for him to come home and
had gone to find him aud greet him

FEW men who handle horses give
proper attention TO- their feet and LEGS
Especially is this the case OH farms
Much time is spent Of u morning in
rubbing, brushing and smoothing the
hair on the sides and hips, but at no
time are the feet examined and pro
perry cared for Now be it known
that the feet of a horse require more
care than the body. They need ten
times as much, for in one respect they
are almost the entire horse. All the
grooming that can be done won't
avail anything il the horse is forced to
stand where his feet will he filthy.
In this case the feet will become dis
ordered, and then the LEGS will get
badly ont Of fix and with bad feet
and bad legs there is not much else of
the horse lit for anything. Stable
prisons generally are terribly severe
on the feet and legs of horses, and
unless these buildings can afford Il
dry room, where Il horse can walk
around, lie down. or roll over, they
are not half SO healthy and comfort
able to the horse as the pasture, and
should be avoided by all good hosters

American and Mexican Claims.

Injustice has been done to the
American and MtAican Joint Commits
sioners, and especially the American
Commissioner. in articles that have re
Gently been published by several news,
papers. The Commission was not or
ganized until 1869, and no cases were
prepared by the parties to be heard
upon the testimony until late in the
summer of 1870. OF these many re-

in two damages, that had been accum-
ulating in the archives Of the two
Governments for twenty years. Be
sides, there was class Of cases that
required great caution to prevent the
repetition of scandals similar to that OF
the celebrated Gardiner claim, deci-
ded by former Mexican Commission
en- Messrs. Wadsworth and Pala
clio, the Commissioners, continued
their labors harmoniously until Mr..
Palacio resigned, in April, 1862. In
the latter part of June, Of that year,
Gen. Guzman arrived in Washington
as the successor of Mr.. Palacio. While
the latter was Commissioner he and
the American Commissioner had filed
adverse Opinions in one Of the cases
known as the Indian depreciation case,
and directed that the case, with their
opinions, should be sent to the UNI
pire, DR.. Lieber. These cases were
brought by Mexico against the Uni
ted States for depredations committed
by Indians on the border against citi-
zens of Mexico. So far as the Com
missioners were concerned the case
was regarded as adjudicated. Gen.
Guzman, however, insisted not only
that this case should be reopened, but
because of difference, as he conten-
ded, between the text of the treaty in
the Spanish and English languages,
all of the Indian depreciation cases
should be withdrawn from the Com
mission and remanded to the several
Governments. The American Com
missioner after this proceeding de
clined, as is well remembered to have
any further communication with Gen
Guzman as Commissioner. In the
mean time; by new Convention the
treaty was extended two years from
February, 1878. Mr. Zamacana,Twhc
has been selected as the successor o.
Gen. Guzman, is gentleman Of dis
tinguished reputation in Mexico. He
is now and has been since his arriva
in Washington, constantly and labor
iously occupied in the examination O
the cases remaining for decision. Mr.
Wadsworth, the American Commits
sioner, has already examined nearly
every question that can arise before
the Commission and could, within ;
comparatively brief time, give his in
dividual opinion in every case. The
two Commissioners are cordially an(
with mutual respect pursuing their la
bors, and all reports of delays and re
ordinations are entirely unfounded.

its popularity in communities nearer home is
ample proof that the virtues claimed for it are
real and tangible. Among family medicines
it stands unrivaled. -BostOn Courier.

"Perry Davis Pain Killer is really val.
