THE VOYAGE Of LIFE.
DEDICATED TO MISS CLARA n. DRKEsE. OF sEv
ORLEANS, IA.

TO MISS CLARA Y. DRKEsE. OF sEv
ORLEANS, IA.
On the stream Of Time is sailing
frail and tiny bark:
IT'S sailing o. or the waters
So calm, SO cool and dark.
Ahead we see father and a mother,
Some dear friend, so good and true,
And behind comes another and another,
Speeding swiftly onward too,
Some have reached the traekless ocean.
And are sailing Ger its wave;
Thcy are struggling with the pillows
That so wild around them rayei
But coon they'll see their homes,
The faces beaming brishti
Every heart will welcome them
With eestHcS and delight
One is nay own frail bark.
Which no~ so well see,
Launched upon the stream Of Lifes
Selling toward Eternity.
At first, in ehildhgc3's happy hours.
Hon pleasant all did seem;
Bus now It's growing dull and duiier,
And pleasures hut & dream,
Seen, too sven, win grim Time throw
His mantled shade around;
Soon this heart will beat 40 more.
And then the Eufflsd sound
OF some slow -toiling bell
Will hush the ,aerry lsugh Of mirth,
And each saa peal will tell
That another has passed from earth.
Many of us kavy loved ones gene
To that bright city Of rest
In fancy we often see them
Ariong the happy and hest-
O, how Joyful il rsuld he 49,
To meet them ON that brighs sheroS -
Where all is peace and harmony,
And where we II part, ne, neyermore.
@, blessed thosght for the lonely heart,
That, when the spirit leaves its clay,
II will wait on iss golden wings
To fair, immortal day!
Yes, and there, with a shining crown
And the song that angels sing,
Wen praise with the angelic chcir
Our Maker, God and King.

SEANcE. = The public seance
of Mr.. Jacobs in Iesler's Hall
last evening was very well at
tended. The medium requested
the audience to appoint a com
mittee to secure him, and Capt.
Geo. D. Hill and Mr.. Briggs
were so appointed. The medium
was placed in the cabinet, which
was nothing but rough box,
with a door and a diamond
shaped opening about six inches
across, near the top. The chair
on which he sat was tied to the
floor, so that it could not be
moved without breaking the
twine, and Jacobs handcutfed
with patent handouts to the
round Of the chair. As soon as
the door was closed a hand ap-
peared through the opening and
shortly afterwards 4 face. Bells
were rung and musical instru-
ments played, and the bells were
pushed through the opening
The door was suddenly opened
by the committee and the medi-
um was found sitting rs before.
except that a heavy iron ring
was found on his arm above the
cuffs.
The most remarkable part OF
the performance was at the close
when a gentleman in the audi
ence arose and said that he had
Il pair of handouts that he would
like to put on the medium and
then see whether any manifesto
tons would be made. The me-
dunn expressed some reluctance
to submit to the test, but the
cuffs were finally put Oh him and
secured to the floor by Il staple.
The same phenomena were re
peated. and when the door was
opened the medium was found
with both cuffs taken off his
wrist and the iron ring locked
through one Of them. Mr.. ia
cobs gives another seance OF
Thursday night.

From d. silly OF Wednesday

GRAIN FROM THE SWINoMISH.-
The steamer Pacific. after load
ing here, went down to the
Swinomish flats on Monday to
load with grain. She anchored
within three miles of the mouth
Of the slough and the grain was
brought off to her by the Fanny
Lake. She took on board 103
tons of oats from the farms of
the Calhouns and Conner and
sailed last evening for San Fran
cisco. She proposes, on her re-
turn trip, to load again at Swim
omish. Farming on these tide
flats must be one of the most
profitable employments q man
would wish to strike in this
country. The land is extraor-
dinarily rich, the expense of
dylling and ditching it is less
than the cost of the clearing,and
fencing required IN other locall-
ties, and, better than all, the
largest sea-going ships in the
world can be loaded, one might
say, right at their front door.
There are hundreds of acres of
such lands, still unoccupied, at
the mouths Of the SIagit Stella
guamish, Samish and other riv-
ers. every bit as favorably locat-
ed as those on the Swinomish,
that need only to be drained by
the removal of the Instructions
in the river, to be as easily pre-
pared for the plow.

LIQUoR LICENSES. 1t being
understood that an attempt was
making in the Legislature to
transfer the sums accruing from
the sale Of liquor licenses in this
county, from the county to the
clty fund, the Board OF Commits
sioners to-day forwarded a reso-
luton to that body, protesting
against any such action on its
part, for the present, as calcu-
lated to financially embarrass
the county by cutting of one OF
its main revenues.

5 MIsTooK Her MANA rather unus-

man was quietly walking along home
ward smoking cigar, and wholly un-
apprehensive of any impending danger.
He saw, not far ahead, lady coming
towards him, ard, with customary ro-
hteness, he gave her the sidewalk to
pass. Instsad of passing. however, she
halted in front of him aud rudely slap.
ped him in the face, and then began to
claw him at lively rate. ''My dear
madam" began the unhappy young man
but, without giving him time to proceed,
the lady commenced. Don't dear mad
am me. You've been out to this time
of the night, and all the children sick at
homer About this time the lady dis
covese1 that she had made mistake,
thinking our young friend who is a
bachelor-her husband, and bolted for
the Iearest house. The affair has ban-
ished all thoughts OF matrimony from
the head Of the assailed party.
