TmE FIRsr FALL OF SNOW

ny yAlGEs 1ussELL LOWELL.
Tie snow had begun in the cleaning,
And busily al the night,
Had been heaping field and highway
With silence deep and white.
Every pine and hr and hemleck
wore ermine too dear for an Earl;
And the poorest twig on the cid elm tret
was rugged inch deep with pearl.
From sheds new-roofcd with Garraca
Came Chandeliers mufied crow;
The sti6 rails were softencd to swan.
down.
And stiu duttered down the snow.
thought OF . mountain, sweet Auburn,
where little headstonc stood;
How the fakes were folding 1t gently,
A. did robins the babes in the WOODS.
Up spoke our little Mabel,
Saying, "Father. who makes the snows"
And told her Of the good All-Father,
Who carcs for us below.
Again looked at the snowfall
]. And thought Of the leaden sky
TAa4 arched o'er our first great sorrow,
When that mound was heaped so high,
remember the gradual patience
That fell from the cloud like snow;
Flake By cake healing and hiding
The scar Of the deep stabbed woe.
And again to the child whispered,
ssThs snow that visiteth all,
Darling, the merciful Father
Alone can make it fall!"
Then with eyes saw not, kissed her,
And she, kissing back. could not know
That my kiss was given to her sister,
Folded close under the deepning snow.

Saved from the Penitentiary by a
Chance Meeting.

y day or two ago a gentleman riding
into this city came up with darkey
on the road, who proposed swapping
horses with him. The darkey's offer
was one not to be -'sneezed at" and each
horse, in something less than "directlv.' -
had a new owner. On reaching the city,
the white man and the darkey parted
company, and while riding about the
city the white man was approached BY
a Deputy Sheriff, who informed him
that the horse he was on belonged to a
Mr.. Turner, near Dallas; that it had
been stolen from Mr.. r., and that the
fact that he was on a stolen horse furn-
Ished not the weakest ground in the
world for spottIng him as the thief. Pro-
testations of innocence and a circum-
stantial account of how he came to be
in possession of the horse were of no
avail. The "nigger in the wood-pile." :"
or the niger who had made the trade,
wasn't around, and the nigger's sins Of
commission fell upon the individual
present. So he went to Jail, and there
stayed all night. The next morning, on
being taken from the Jail TO the Court
house for trial, who should he see but
the darkey he made the trade with,
walking along the street, leading the
horse he had traded for the one that had
got him in his "pickle." OF course, he
at once called the officers attention to
the darkey, who, noticing that he was
detected, dropped the rcins of the horse
he was leading, and started for the ohter
side of the street A six-shooter quick
ly covering him and demand to sur
render or ego up the spout caused him
to return humbly to his pursuer, who,
on obtaining satisfactortory evidence
that it was really the darkey and not the
white man who stole the horse turned
the latter loose, and holds on To the
(Terds) Herald.
