LIFE.

Oh sadness of decay
The autumn fields are grey,
And long.forgotten is the hedgerow lune
How sick the shattered fern,
HOW harsh the woods and stern,
How pale and palsled is the afternoon
oh gladness of decay
The wild buds store the May,
The bushed lanes listen for the blOckbird' ssong
The dumb trees hoard their strength,
The shy fern, peeps, at length
Old Death is qulCkened, and the days are long

THE LAST WISH.

This is al; is it much, my darlingl VOC must fol
low your path in life,
Have head for its complex windings, hand fol
its sudden strife:
The sun will shine the flowers will bleon though
my course md them all is Ger
wonld not that dear living eyes should light II
their JOY more;
Only iust tor the sake of the happy past, and the
golden days that have been.
By the love we have lov ed and the hopes we have
hoped, will you have my grave kept g1eeni
Just q moment in the morning, in the eager f ush
of the day,
To pluck some creeping weed, perchance, or train
the white rose spray:
Just 3 moment to shade my violets from the glare
OF the nOOntde heat,
Just tar and prayer in the eloaming, ere you
leave me With lingering feet.
All IT is weak and foolish, but think that in
should know, and love to know, mine own. that
you Keep my grave SO green.
iwould fain, when the drops are FLASHING against
That you should be thinking wistfully of my
grasses out in the rain;
That, when the winter veil 10 spread DER the fair
white world below,
Your tender hauds Irvine the holly wTeaths that
mark my rest in the snow.
Ny clasp LIES rich gifts gIows faint and cold,
weep;
Yet Oh would hold it to the last-the trust of my
grave kept green.
Because it is by such little signs the heart and it's
faith are read;
Because the natural man must shrink ere he Joins
the forgotten dead;
TIE heavt My hope is bright and pure. and calm is
Yet the human love clings yearnngly TO all it has
We have been 50 happy darling and the parting
All soo,he it by this last VOW to me: ysu will
watch that my grave keeps green,

The Fate of Colonel Ohntt's Assassin.

The Fate of Colonel Ohutt's Assassin.
The following account of the capture and
lynching of the colored man who assassi-
mated Colonel Offutt in St. Landry parish
some days ago, is from the Washington
Enterprise, of the second.
The news spread like a prairie fire, and
the suspicious circumstances mentioned
above, together with many others too
numerous to mention here, all pointing un-
mistakably to Gustin, citizens of every
shade of politics and color began to arm for
his pursuit. he having made his escape from
the party first attempting his arrest. After
one week Of constant search he was cap
tured near the junction of the BayOus Teche
and Fuselier, come eighteen miles from
Opelousas. The two gentlemen who effect
ed his arrest were at a shop about one mile
below the junction, and the refugee was
being described, when a mulatto who was
listening said: THAT man is at my house
now" The three going to the house TO-
gether, the mulattO got his gun out of the
house without alarming Gustin. under pre-
tence OF wanting to bill some ducks. As he
left the cabin the white men took each q
door; he succeeded in passing one Of the
men and started to run but was shot, when
he fell but rising started again, when he
was shot second time and fell. Both the
gentlemen now approaching him he teigned
to be dying, asked them to turn him over
on his back, upon doing which he made
desperate effort to possess himself of a re-
vOlver in the hand OF one of them and very
nearly succeeded.
He was then brought to Opelousas and
delivered to the sheriff As soon as this
was known, rich and poor, old and young,
Republican and Democrat, white and black,
some armed. some not commenced to
gather at Opelousas. all with the one intent
OF helping to execute summary Justice.
After short but fruitless resistance from
the sheriff and deputies, he was taken and
brought through Washin gton to the place
where, nine days before, he committed the
outrage; and there, quietly and soberly, he
was pulled up to limb some thirty feet
from the earth. and there left hanging, to
the satisfaction of all except those who
would not have been satisfied had his exc
outlon taken place under sentence of court.
