In the morning the light breezes shiver,
The soft cloudlets fit Ger the sky;
Who ran In mirth by the river?
Was IL II WasitI?
Whose voice rRng out, as clear and gay,
As the joyous breath Of the vakening day;
Who eheered the dog to the flashing leap, ~
Where the pebbles shone and the banks were steep
Who lay on the daisies 10 watch the lark
Lose Its twinkling wings in the great blue arc;
Who laughed at the brown bares dArting by?
WasitI? WasitI?
IN the sunset 1.-THE willows Quiver,
The rose-tint is flooding the sky;
Who loitered Of old by the river?
Was It'll? Was il I?
Who watched the blue forget-lne-nois CLEAN,
And the water-lilies foat on the stream2
Who blushed as strong arm drew them near,
And q low voice whispered close and dear,
How fair the waxen flowers would show,
Mid the golden braids in the bail rooms glow?
Oh ! the happy silence, hushed and shy,
Was It'll? Was i?
The black ice-bands erackle and shiver,
As the pale wintry sun lights the sky;
Who stands BY the cold sullen river?

With hair that is touched by the fallen snow,
And : step that was eager, long ago;

And has learnt the watchers cautious ways,
And must needs go softly all its days.

We do not in the least feel like blaming
Macbeth for this expression of disgust; in
deed, we are rather inclined to sympathize
with him. Even nowadays most of the ca
thartics offered to the public are great, re-
pulsive-looking pills, the very appearance
OF which is sufficient to turn ones stom-
ach." Had Macbeth ever taken DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgative Pellets he would not
have uttered those words of contempt. 1t
is really encouraging, when one is i'll, to find
that little, sugar-coated Pellet, no larger
than grain of mustard, will as promptly
produce the desired effect as dose of great,
nauseating pills. These little Pellets, unlike
other cathartics, are really natures physic.
They do not debilitate, but tone and invig-
crate the system. No family should be
without DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pei

THE LANDLADY's SrRATEeY.-Louis-
vile has been amused by row at a
fashionable boarding house. A boarder
refused to pay his bill or to go
away until the month for which he had
bargained had expired. The landlady
was told by the lawyers that the money
was not legally due until the end of the
month, and that she must fulfill her
part of the contract before she could sue
him. She next took the case into her
own hands, put damp sheets on his bed,
fed him on the poorest of viands, and put
a whining puppy in the room next to
his: He retreated after three days. of
endurance.

The Perseented Monlion.

Ii is not often man considers himself
grievOusly injured to the extent of $J0,-
600 by an " adulterer and perjurer," but
that is precisely what Mr.. Francis ID.
MoultOn, of Brooklyn, thinks. The
purity of his character has been ques-
TONED by Mr.. Beecher, and the ire
proachable reputation which once ri
vailed Bayard's and knocked Sir Gala
had's into a cocked-hat is quite chap
fallen. This simile may appear extraor-
dinary, for the spectacle of a chap
fallen reputation is not often viewed,
but consider the extraordinary nature
of the case. 1t is to be hoped, if Mr..
MoultOn does not get the $4,000, he
will at least get some other kind of salve
to heal the wounds in his reputation
for it must be said the great trial in
Brooklyn exposed many. If this new
case is ever brought to trial we are as
sured that Mr.. Beecher's guilt or inno-
cence will be finally settled---which will
be very desirable thing. But the ex-
hibition of Mr.. F. D. Moulton asking for
$50, 1000, as cure for the wounds his char
acter has sustained, is a little too much
to receive with a straight face. Mr..
Beecher may be guilty, but Mr.. Frank
Moulton is hardly the person to cast
stones at him.-NeU York Commercial i'd

The TURKISH PosT.-The postal ar
rangements in Turkey are probably the
most convenient for employees in the
world. These gentlemen are not troubled
with racks, pigeon-holes and windows.
Distribution is unknown. The mail car
rier simply takes his bag into large
hall, empties its contents into large fat
basket, opens the door to the public, re-
tires to the corner with his pipe, and the
scramble of the people for letters COM
mences, everybody making a rush for
the fat basket. The rates of postage are
based on the distance -traversed, as eight
cents for 100 hours, sixteen cents for 200
hours, and so on. Abdul Aziz should
offer Mr.. Jewell a princely salary to
come and show his people how to run a
postofice. -CoLVieg-JoU7laI.

Mule. for Farm Work.

An Arkansas correspondent of the
American Farm Journal thus strongly
states the superiority of mules over
horses for farm work in the South
The SUBJECTS worthy the attention Of
Northern farmers:
"Mules on an average are more val.
liable than horses, and more easily
raised, and are not so subject to dis.
ease, are not likely to run away in
wagoning and blowing, are longer
lived, VIII do more work, and require
less feed and attention; they are strong.
er, will draw heavier loads, and stand
a great deal more hardship, and are in
every way preferable to the horse for
general farm use. Mules come in
earlier, being ready for light work
when three years Old. They will then
do enough work on a farm 10 pay for
their food, and after having reached
the age of four years they are ready
for any kind Of service. But the horse
(colt) must be kept until he is four
years old before he is worked at all.
and when lie Is 4 he must be a first
rate colt to bring as much as the mule
will at years Old, But assume the
animals are both required for farm
work, see what difference there is in
favor OF the mule. The working life
of the mule can be safely estimated at
thirty years, and that OF a horse at ten
years. SO while a mule is working it's
life out three horses will be required to
do equal service. But these are net the
onlyitems. The saving of feed is at least
one-fourth, or not less than647 bushels
of corn and 451 tons OF hay. These
amounts added to the original saving
in purchase of animals, show an adj.
vantage in favor of the use Of the mule
over the horse of 81 900 during the or.
binary life Of the animal. The mule
is less dainty about food, mground
grain and dry feed being just the thing
for him"
