a CamtRta.

At the opening Of the Centennial
there was sung a cantata composed by
Sidney Lanier, and entitled The
Centennial Meditation of Columbia"
The finest verse (in our opinion) in this
cantata is the third, which is as fol-
lows:
jamestown, out OF thee
Plymouth, thee-thee, Albany
Winter cries, Ye freeze: away!
Fever cries, Ye burn: away!
Hunger cries, Ye starve: away!
Vengeance cries, Your graves shall stay.
Speaking of the cantata an exchange
observes, in publishing the whole ef
fusion, Mr.. Lanier's verses must be
read with constant reference to the in
evitable restrictions of his task" We
strictly observe this caution in reading
the cantata and we keep constantly in
view the frailty Of human nature. 2nd
we grit our teeth and try to think of
all the prayers we learned IN childhood
and of all the solemn things we know
about but to save our life we can't.
help but swear when we read verses
like the above.

THE New Mexican papers have been
publishing an account, taken from some
eastern paper, detailing TIE suicide
in hotel in New York Of young
man named Curtiss, ana who is sup
posed bv the papers publishing the ac
count to be Mr.. c. Z. Curtiss. well
known in Tucson. There is no date
given to the time Of the real or ficti-
tious suicide, and several things about
the account make it look decidedly
fraudulent There is a very florid pic
ture drawn Of the scene and Surround
ings OF the suicide and Of course there
is female character. Clasped in the
left hand of the victim Is a letter from
some femsle charmer, and natural
ly the letter has a postscript, and this
very postscript removes any possible
fear that the account, if true, refers 10
our Curtiss, for this postscript reads:
" Charlie, you are too mean to live"
Under no possible distortion of human
sentiment could this have ever been
written OF C. E Curuss.
