OLD AND BLIND.

OLD AND BLIND.
The following sublime and affecting production
was discovered among the remains of oul
great epic poet and is published in recent Ok
ford edition of Millions works;
l am old and blind!
Men point at me as smitten by Gods frown
Afflicted and deserted of my kind;
Yet am not cast down.
am weak, yet strong!
l murmur not that no longer sec;
Poor, old and helpless, the more belong,
Father, Supreme, to Thee
o Merciful One.
When men are farthest then Thou art most near;
When friends pass by me, and my weakness shun,
Thy chariot hear
Thy glorious face
Is leaning toward me and its holy light
Shines in upon my lonely dwelling place
And there is no more night.
On my Bonded knee
lrecognizc Thy purpose clearly shown;
My vision Thou hast dimmed, that | may see
Thyself-Thyself alone.
have nought to fear:
This darkness is the shadow of Thy wing;
Beneath it am almost sacred here
Can come no evil thing.
Oh seem to stand
Trembling where foot of mortal ne 'er hath been,
Wrapped in the radiance of Thy sinless land,
Which eye hath never seen.
Visions come and go;
Shapes of Respondent beauty round me throng;
From angel lips | seem to hear the flow
OF soft and holy song
Is it nothing now,
WI When Heaven is opening on my sightlcss eyes :?
When airs from paradise refresh my brow
The earth in darkness lies.
In purcr cline
My being fills with rapture-waves Of thought
Roll in upon my spirit-strains sublime
Break over me unsought
Give me now my Tyre!
feel the strivings of a gift divine
Within my bosom CLOVIS unearthly fire
Lit by no skill of NINE

How it is Done in Mississippi.

An attache of the Register was in Missis-
sippi last week, and attended the session
of the Circuit Court at Water Valley. 1t
seems that in the town there are two law
yers who are engaged in almost every case in
that court, and are always on opposite
sides. During one day of the term, the
jury, which was composed mostly of color
ed men, decided case in favor Of the side
represented by b., Esq, and the next case
being represented by the same attorneys
they decided in favor of G., Esq. The YER
dict in the latter case was so much ut vari-
ancc with the facts of the case, that an ig-
norant white man who had not, mp to that
time, been admitted to full knowledge of
the blessings of negro rule and the wisdom
attending their conduct of public affairs
asked one of the jury why it was rendered
in the latter case The juror, with II know
ing wink, which plainly said "wc are
sharp" said: You see, sar, dat we 'cided
to glib the mex one for him. OATS muffin
but jestice, an the jury must do jestice to
all sides"

4 Dog Detective.

A wine merchant in the Montmartre
(Paris) quarter began to open his shop one
morning and was taking the shutters into
the cellar, when the barking of his dog at
tracted his attention. He went back quick
ly, but saw no one; but the intelligent ami
NAL sprang upon the counter and began to
scratch above the till. On opening it,
while the dog continued to sniff and smell
about it, growing at times, it was found
empty. The dog seemed to strike the SCENT
following it to the door, paused to invite
his master to come on. He did so, and af-
ter going a short distance, as if upon the
scent of hare, the animal led up to two
individuals and began to bark loudly.
"These must be the thieves" thought
the merchant.
He went toward them, calling man
near by to help him, and this individual
happened to be an agent of police in citi-
zen's dress. Seeing that they were pursued,
the two men fled. The dog kept swapping
at their heels, aud, thanks to his aid, one
of them was caught. The other disappear
ed at the Rue Montorgucil.
Seek" cried the master, urging on the
dog, and the animal at once took up the
scent.
While the master, assisted by person
called in for the minute, held the thief, the
agent followed the dog, and came up to
him, barking at the door of house. The
agent went up stairs, guided by the dog,
and found the second thief hidden behind
the door of room on the second story. A
portion of the money taken from the till was
found upon the man thus curiously caught
by the aid of an intelligent dog.

MUCH interest is shown in the condi-

the Carolinas. Alabama and Georgia show
that the prospects of the crop are back.
ward. Considerable less acreage has been
planted than last year. The general im-
preston is that the yield may reach
about three and q quarter millions of
oales. This is not as good as we had
hoped, being three-quarters Of million
oales less than the crop of last year.
Something of this Is attributed to the
poverty of the planters, who do not have
money enough to buy fertilizers and who
experience much difficulty in obtaining
money on future crops. There is a good
deal Of political disquietude arising out
OF the angry discussions occasioned by
Tue Civil Rights bill and the misgoverh-
ment Of 30 many Of the States. This,
OF course. disheartens the people and
prevents that cheerful energy and in.
onstry without which people can raise
