For the Jetfersonian.
THE CRADLE SONG.
BY REV. THOMAS GORDON.

Hush! Be still; Ihear a singing
Some sweet voice so soft and low:
And the strains are so familiar,
That my heart begins to glow.
Who is singing: Hushi I've heard her
Heard that voice and song before:
lis the well known voice of mother,
With the cradle songs of yore
There it stands, the old, old cradle,
As it stood in years gone by;
While she sits beside it singing,
With love beaming in her eye.
See it moving back and forward,
None can touch it with such grace:
While her voice like angels censor,
Fills with sweetest Joy the place.
YesI heard you singing, mother,
Singing that old well known song,
With its soothing '.hush" and darling"
And each word so quaint and long:
And wept before knewit,
Wept because felt so glad,
Then the dream of bliss departed,
Now l weep because I'm sad.
All! your songs they soothed in childhood,
SOothed us with their ''hush" to rest:
And your face so meek and patient,
Healed us when we were distressed.
Still hear your ''hush" and darling"
And your songs still give me rest
In a worse than childhoOd's fever
'Mong the angels yours is best
EvermOre, then, darling mother,
Sing those songs you sang before:
sing them as you ind IN childhood.
Sing them 10 ME evermore,
For they make me calm and patient,
Mid dark cares which make me wild,
Sing them to me, always, mother,
Let NE feel I'm still a child

NOVELTIES IN MARINE ARCHITECT
URE.-Even in marine architecture,
things are being brought down, as the
saying i, to fine point Vessels are
now being built for a specific purpose,
or like the Great Eastern drift into
some particular business that no others
can do as well. Thus the iron brig
Novelty" of Boston, lately lost at
Cardenas, was built expressly for carry
ing molasses in bulk, and the saving eff
fected thereby amounted to $1,000 per
voyage; six trips per season being her
average. The even distribution of her
freight added much to the steadiness of
the hull in heavy weather, but the mo
lasseS corroded the iron; and this seems
was the most immediate cause of the
destruction of the vessel. \ similar

the same parties-wood, however, being

VICTOR HUGO was very fond Of Henri
RochefOrt He called him his third
SON. he said that he adopted him; and
now that both OF Hugo's own sons are
dead, it might be supposed that the
adopted one would be still dearer. The
other day, when Rochefort escaped from
New Caledonia, telegraphed TO Paris for
money, every one said: ''Oh, Victor HUI
go will send him all he wants" and it
was announced, indeed, that Victor Hu-
90 had sent him 5000 francs. But, in
truth, when the old poet was applied to
he refused TO give farthing. VI. Adam,
who went to him, expressed surprise at
this refusal. You have said that Roche
fort was your son." he remarked. 1t
is true, said old Hugo, but that was in
a moment of effusion."

TURKEY has Just had its first strike.
The new Governor of the Island of
Rhodes recently notified all the boat
men and shippers of the island that they
would be obliged to pay a monthly tax,
decreed at Constantinople. This order
caused an unusual commotion among
the boatmen, and. after discussing the
matter for some time, they determined
to strike. Accordingly, on the arrival of
the French and English steamers, not
boat put off from the shore, and the
passengers were of course the sufferers.
Although it was the first strike the Pasha
had ever had to de Il wit L, he was not
at all disconcer. ed Before the day was
over, all the boatmen were safely en-
sconced in Jail, and their boats we're
manned by seamen from one of the
Turkish frigates. The Pasha evidently
has no idea of tempOrizing with strikers.

The Captain passed through the silver

TheiJoplin Mining Company will at ono e

MARvELs OF THE INSECT WORLD
Tie Spectator, in its notice of VI. Pouch
cts work, The Universe says: MAN
generally fiatters himself that his anatO-
my is about the highest effort of Divine
skill: yet that Of the insect is far more
complicated. No portion Of our organ
ism can compare with the probOscis of
the common fly. Man can boast Of 80
muscles. Lyonet, who spent his whole
life in watching a single species Of eat
erpillar, discovered in it 1900. The
common fly has S, 600 eyes. and certain
butterflies $4,000. NJ. POuchet treats
it as an established fact That 30 fine are
the sensOry organs of ants, that they
converse by means of their antenne.
Consequently, the strength and activity
of insects far surpass ours in proportion.
In the whole field Of natural science
there is nothing more astounding than
the number of times fly can clap its
wings-6OO or 700 times. But in rapid
fight we are required to believe $500
is a moderate estimate The mind +
stupefied if it attempts TO realize these
results.

WHOLESALE DESTRUCTION OF GEESE
By LIGHTNING. - The Sutton Banner
or March 2Sth says:
"On Monday, the 10Th inst, an almost
incredible occurrence transpired in the
northern portion of Sutter and the
southern portion of Butte counties. On
that day, Just before sunset, a large thun-
der cloud came up, apparently from the
nOrthsaSt, accompanied by uuTISnal
amount of chain lightning. First a
small amount of common hail fell, and
then followed sufficient snow to whiten
the ground. As the hail began to fall
the lightning flashed, thousands of wild
geese, which, in the pond of shallow wa
ter, exists in that locality during very
wet winters, suddenly rose up ia tiutter,
as if many hunters had discharged vol
ley among them. They went up and up,
apparently to rise above the fearful
cloud 1t was nearly dark, and those
who saw them rise thought no more of
it until morning, when they began to
find dead geese, and hear of hundreds be
ing picked up by the neighbOrs. Some
seven hundred had been found. One
man picked up ON his farm, all two
horses could haul, for their feathers.
Their heads were badly torn, and their
bills split into fragments. Many of them
had the feathers of their backs crisped
and burnt, and their bodies bursted open.
