His eye 10 wore Il restless stare,
Aud like II Peeler's whistle rung,
The accents OF that wondrous tOugne,

On various bottles shining bright;
Above the clouds like spcctros fly
And from his lips escapes cry

MOrIuary.

That Dallas is as healthy locality
ms can be found within the limits Of
the State of Texas, is well known to
her own citizens. Strangers however,
may form unjust conceptions on this
head. To all such The HERALD refers
the following statistics taken from the
record of the city physicians:
Frank Duerr, aged 80 years; died
August 9th of poison.
Thomas Tuggle, aged 2 years, died
August Sth of congestion of the brain.
Fudoine Dudly, died August 5th OF
poison.
Susan McAfee, aged years, died
August 18th, 1875, of meningitis.
Infant son OF Mr. Cotch, died Aug
ust II, 1916, premature birth.
q. w. Horn, aged % years, died
August 18th, 1875 consumption.
Charlie Stillman, aScd years, died
August 2lst, 1875, of congestion of the
bowels.
These figures will compare favorably
with the death rates of any city in the
United States when the calculation is
made on basis of comparative popu-
ulation.

building on the square, will occupy n
good deal of Dallas enterprise.

ceeding days may now be INDUCED in
without reserve. But will the man of
business totally forget his quotations.
or Will the young man forget the flash
of n bright eye us he bends his knee &?
And the owner of that bright eye, will
she be totally unconscious of every
thing save that which should be the
immediate object of her attention I?

before last one of our young men en-
tered his establishment and, paying
no heed whatever TO various caballstic
signs, such rs apjcture of u broken
slate and of II dead dog, whose name
appeared to be Trust--all tending to
convey the one general idea that the
credit system had been totally abolish
cd in that institutiOn--he called for a
glass of beer, and was Immediately
served by the corpulent proprietor.
When the beer had disappeared, the
young gentleman coolly remark
ed "Hang that up, Dutchy."
The thunder cloud itself Is
not darker than became the
brow of that offended Teuton. Nor
was the glaring lightning much swift
or than his heavy foot rs it described
the are Of circle whose circum ference
intersected the young mans coat tail.
The dull heavy thud of a ponderous
contact In the beer shop was echoed by
agroan from the other side of the
street, and the young gent slowly
wended his homeward way, media.
ting ON the uncertainties which attend
all sublnnary transactions.
