Gems OF THouGur.-IIapry indeed arc
they whose intercourse with the world has
not changed the tone cf the holier feel
ings. or broken those musical chords of
the heart whose vibrations are so mclodi-
ous, SO tender, and touching in the even
ing of age.
If you wish to live the life Of a man.
and not Of fungus. be social. be broth.
erly. be charitable. be sympathetic. and
labor earnestly for the good Of your kind.
The man who cares for nobody, aud for
whom nobody cares. has nothing to live
for that will pay for keeping Of soul aud
body together.
Innocence is flower which withcrs
when touched, but blooms not again,
though watercd by tears.
Passion gets less and less powerful af-
ter every defeat. Husband energy for
real demands which the dangers Of life
make upon it.
Permanent rest is not expected on the
road. but at the end o. the journey.
The good mans life. like the mountain
top. looks beautiful because it is near
Heaven.
Better he upright with poverty, than
unpriucipled with plenty.
Remember that every person, however
low. has rights and feelings. In all con-
tensions let peace be rather your object
than triumph; value triumph only as the
means of peace.
1t is not till the storm comes that We
fnd out the real building and the timber
of vessel.
l, is a higher exhibition of Christian
manliness to he able to bear trouble than
to get rid Of it.
1t is no, until the flower has fallen of
that the fruit begins to ripen. So in
life-it is when the romance is past thai
the practical usefulness begins.
Submission is the footprint Of faith il
the pathway ct sorrow.

BY THE POET PRIEST or TIE SOUTH.
Ny feet are wearied, and my hands are tired,
Ny soul oppressed
And with desire have long desired
Rest, only rest.
IT'S hard to toil-when toll Is almost vain
In barren rays.
IT'S hard TO SOW and never garner grain
In harvest days.
The burden Of my days is hard to bear
But God knows best,
And have prayed, hut vain has been my prayer
For rest sweet rest.
. Tis hard to plant in Spring, and never reap
The Autumn yield;
IT'S hard to till and when It's titled to weep
Ger fruitless field.
And SO cry a weak and human cry
So heart oppressed,
And so sigh weak and h uman sigh
For rest-for rest.
Ny way has wound across the desert years
And cares infest
Ny path, ard through the flowing Of hot tears
pined for rest.
Twas alwa-s so, when still a child, laid
On mothers breast,
Ny wearied little head, cen then prayed
As now, for rest.
4 nd | am restless still; twill soon be o'cr,
For down the West,
Lies sun is setting, and see the shore
Where shall rest.

the BLOOD AT EUREkA A.

Mr. Wilson has received letter from
his late partner, L. Solomon, descriptive
OF the terrible trial through which Eu.
reka passed last Friday. With Mr.. vii.

which are as follows:
EUREKA, July "a, 1874.
FRIEND Wilson: To-day has been an
eveutiul one in the history of Eureka.
At 10 o'clock this morning storm
burst upon us, and its force was SO great
that stream OF water, charging through
the streets, took houses, women and
men with it. 1t came so suddenly that
people had hardly time to collect their
thoughts. Thirteen bodies have already
been recovered, and no telling how many
more may be found. 1t was horrible
sight, and when looking at the dead
lying cold and stiff, my. thoughts flew
back to Phoebe at the time OF the explos-
ion. One lady, but married only three
short weeks. and lately arrived from her
mothers home in the East, was carried
of by the rushing torrent and lost. Her
body has Just been found, together with
another lady's. Many families have
lost everything in the world. the savings
Of years perhaps, and of course grea;
suffering must ensue. But We have will
ling hearts aud hands here, and they shal
not suffer more than the recollection OF
that horrible day. Let me not dwell
upon 80 fearful a suject. cannot write
about business tonight, SO good bye.

business transacted Your friend,

LAST Sunday morning, about CLOCK,
James Greason, employed at the Balti.
more Consolidated mine, met with a
most painful and shocking accident. He
was at work at the bottom of the main
shaft, in the center compartment. when
the cage was lowered upon him, crush
ing him to the earth. In falling he was
lucky enough to get his body into a low
place, where 1t was not much bruised,
but his left foot was caught on timber
and bent over it at so short an angle that
the ankle joint burst open and the ends
OF the bones of the leg were thrust out
through the skin. The injured man was
brought to his lodgings in this city and
Drs. Bronson and Weber called to his
assistance. Half dozen strong men
pulling at the foot failed to extend the
tendons sufficiently to allow the bones
being got back in place. At length, in
order to get the joint in place, it was
found necessary to cut several tendons,
and even the tendon Achilles. 1t was a
very serious injury, and with the best of
luck it will be months before he will be
able to use his foot virg. Enterprise,

THE DISASTER AT EUREKA.

From Saturdays issue of the Eureka
Sentinel, we republish the details of the
terrible misfortune that has so suddenly
overtsken Eureka. The narrative does
but confirm the statement We published
in our extra OF Saturday evening and IN
our regular edition OF Sunday morning
The tale is narrowing and melancholy
to degree, and causes our hearts to
beat forcibly and rapidly at the recital Of
the troubles from which our sister COM
munity has suffered so heavily. We
hope our brethren of Eureka will not
allow this unexpected and undeserved
calamity TO depress their energies and
abate their ardor. Throughout the
whole State there will be but one feel
ing expressed; that is, sorrow and SYM
patty for their misfortunes. As We
said on Sunday, we are sure that not one
OF their fellow citizans wherever situate,
but will be willing to contribute his mite
TO rende. the burden of trouble less
weighty on those whom il SO unexpected
ly visited. We are fully aware of the
undaunted pluck and elastic spirit of
Nevadans in general, and the folks at
Eureka, are not all likely to fall from
the mettle OF their pasture. Still, If ont
side help is needed, we are sure that
they have but to say the word, and their
sister communities will at once respond
literally to the call. Meanwhile, we can
only repeat our expressions of hearty
goodwill and sympathy, assuring our
fellow citizens of Eureka that they can
command US in promoting every reason
BILE means of repairing the frightful dis
sster from which they are now suffering
so acutely.
