INDEPENDENCE. IOWA. FRIDAY, DECEMBER
CADENABBIA.
BY II. ". LoNGFELLOw.

BIZ H. ". LtN6FELLOW
No sound Of wheel or hoof- beat breaks
The silence Of the Summer day,
As by the loveliest Of al lakes
while the idle hours away.
pace the leafy colonnade,
Where level branches OF the plane
Above me weave roof OF shade
Impervious to the sun and rain.
At times sndden rush Of air
Flutters the lazy leaves O'er head,
And CLEANS of sunshine toss and flare
Like torches down the path tread.
By Somariva's garden gate
make the marble stairs my seat,
And hear the water, as l wait,
Lapping the steps beneath my feet.
The undulation sinks and swells,
Along the stony parapets,
And far away the floating bells
Tinkle upon the fishers nets.
Silent and slow, by tower and town,
The frcighted barges come and go,
Their pendent shadows gliding down
By town and tower submerged below.
The hills sweep upward from the shore,
With villas scattered one by one
Upon their wooded spurs, and lower
Bellaggio blazing in the sun.
And dimly seen, a tangled mass
OF walls and woods, of light and shade,
Stands beckoning up the Stelvio Pass,
Varenna with its white cascade.
l ask myself, Is this dream?
viii it all vanish into airY
Is there a land Of such supreme
And perfect beauty everywhere
Sweet visionl Do not fade away;
Linger until my heart shall take
Into itself the Summer day,
And all the beauty of the lake.
Linger until upon my brain
Is stamped an image of the scene;
Then fade into air again,
And be as if thon hadst not been.
-Aha,tic Monthly for December.

Ralph Waldo Emerson


Civilization depends on morality.
Everything good in man leans on
what is higher. This rule holds in
small as in great; thus all our strength
and success in the work Of our hands
depend on our borrowing the aid OF
the elements. You have seen the
carpenter on the ladder, with broad
axe, chipping upward chips from a
beam. How awkwark! AT what
disadvantage he works! But see him
on the ground dressing his timber
under him. Now, not his feeble
muscles, but the force Of gravity
brings down the axe; the planet itself
splits the stick. The farmer had
much ill-temper, laziness, and shirk-
ing to endure from his hand-sawyer,
until, one day, he bethought him to
put his saw-mill on the edge of a
waterfall; and the river never tires of
turning his wheel; the river is good.
natured and never hints an objection.
We had letters to send. Couriers
could not go fast enough, nor far
enough; broke their wagons; founder
ed their horses; had bad roads in the
spring, snow-drifts in winter, heats in
summer; could not get the horses off
walk. But we found out that the
air and earth were full of electricity,
always going our way-just the way
we wanted to send. Would he take
a message? Just as lief as not; had
nothing else to do; would carry it in
no time. Only one doubt occurred,
one staggering Objectionable had no
carpet bag, no visible pockets, no
hands, not SO much as mouth to
carry letter. But after much thought
and manv experiments we managed
to meet the conditions and to fold up
the letter in such an invisible, COM
pact form as he could carry in those
invisible pockets of his, never
wrought by needle or thread-and it
went like charm. Now that is the
wisdom of man-in every instance
of his labor to hitch his wagon to Il
star, and see his chores done by the
gods themselves. This is the way
we are strong, by borrowing the
might Of the elements. The forces
Of steam, gravity, galvanism, light,
magnets, wind, fire, serve us day by
day and cost nothing.

A Brave Girl.

A Liverpool paper Of the Goth ult.
mentions that on the Sunday morning
previous a desperate encounter took
place between housebreaker and a
girl fourteen years of age, named
Alice Slack at a village near that city.
John Wallwork and family went to
church in the afternoon, leaving the
girl and q baby in the house. The
girl was going into the yard for a
rug, when the man, who was lying
under the window, sprang into the
house, seized her by the throat, and
sworc he would murder her if she
did not tell him where the money
was. She refused, and he pushed
her down the cellar steps and threw
a chair after her. She got up and
found he was going up stairs. She
screamed and went up after him, and
pulled him down by his jacket. He
turned and knocked her down, and
pulled her across the kitchen floor by
the hair of her head. He then got 4
heavy walking stick from the lobby,
with which he struck her twice on
the head, and several times over the
back. He then got her against the
lobby wall and kicked her severely.
She screamed and struggled hard,
and at last he pitched her into the
parlor, shut the door, and left the
house, having obtained nothing. On
the previous Friday the same man
came to the house with a large bull
dog, and said that Mrs. Wallwork,
who had just gone out, had sent him
tv get his tea at the house. The girl
then shut the door III his face.

A Tantalizing Picture.
From the Columbus journal.

FROM tne NOluinDus JOuTnAl.
How is this for a picture? Pretty,
bright, blue-eyed country girl, sitting
in the rear of market wagon, beside
a barrel Of big red apples, which the
same her cheeks resemble, munching
at fall pippin in maiden meditation
fancy free, swinging q distracting
pair Of round ankles hither and yon,
while the feet beneath her petticoat
stole in and out''-not exactly like
''little mice," but say-like yearling
shoats. A little brother wallowing
in the straw beside her like a good
natured Newfoundland pup, paving
her and teasing her, and giving fur
tive kisses between bites, on the ripe
and ravishing red lips. 1t is such pi-
ETY. as this that teaches us to be con-
tented with our lot, even if it has
several mortgages and assessments
on it.
