Voices in the t1ee-tops.

What Is this eyer crying

The low, soft insect-musm'ging,
Like rhythm sweet and te.se!
The moon lights Up the shadows,
While winds SIGH dreamily,
And, in my midnight -gazing,

REVIEW OF TIE WEEh&
The holiday performances at the theatres
we're well patronized. Fourth Of July Is not
generally good day for the managers, but this
gear there was an exception to therule Whether
The result was due to the comfortable weather,
OF to an outburst OF Centennial enthusiasm, no
body seems to know; and the subject is not,
perhaps, worth discussing. Hooley's Theatre,
where the Union Square Company presented
''Thc Two Ozphans,'' must be accorded the
credit, If any there be, Of haEing drawn the
largest crowds. A statement Of the receipts for
che performances at this theatre herewith given
will cause less prosperous managers to enter
t.in some cnvious feelings, but these, we hope,
will be succeeded by rejoicing at SO substantial
IN evidence of vitality in the dramatic world.

ents, then asked for the acquittal of the de-

dents, then asked for the acquittal of the de-
fendant at the hands of the court.
Col. Broadhead replied to Judge Porter,
after which the Court overruled the motion
of the latter. The proposition being then
made that the prosecution should open the
arguments, Judge Dillon announced that, as
a matter of justice to the defendant, he would
suspend the usual rule, and require the pros
ecution to open, in order that the defense
might not waste time in guessing on what
portion Of the mass of testimony the prosecu-
ton relied.
Neither counsel being prepared to begin
their arguments, the court adjourned.
ELEVENTH pAf.
Col. Broadhead began tie closing argu-
ment reviewing the evidence ct great length,
and insisting that the testimony aud the tele
grams produced in the trial all tended to
connect the defendant with the conspiracy to
defraud the revenue. He claimed that the
letter carrier Magill was a manufactured and
trained witness, gotten up for the purpose Of
otrsetting the damaging testimony given by
Everest. The counsel closed with the admo-
nition that the jury be not influenced by the
consideration Of position, but that if they
found that corruption nestled within the
White House they crush it out.
Mr. StorrS, on behalf of the defense, re-
viewed the testimony, and replied to the
summing up of Col. Broadhead. He said
nothing had been adduced to prove the de-
fendant guilty, but that the prosecution had
invited the jury to assume crime that had
not been proven. Mr.. Storrs was obliged to
suspend his remarks because of sickness, and
the court adjourned.

On! pity my neighbor over the way,
Who had nothing to do but yawn all day;
No little hands to tumble her hair,
Nolittle F." nuisance" to vex her with care,
No little" F" torment" to worry and tease;
Nothing to do but consult her own ease.
Poor rich iieighbor, I'm sorry for yod-
Sorry because you have nothing to do"
Sorry, because, as the days go by,
You are restless and weary, you know not why;
And once in a while 1 can see the trace
OF many tear on your fair, proud face.

Doing my part in the tread-mil Of life.
Joe, my husband, is off all day,
Fighting the giants of want away.
Baby and we are busy too,
But we've plenty of time to be sorry for you.
Baby's a nuisance, plague and joy;
But then, you see, he's my own sweet boy;
I've no time for groan or sigh,
No time to be Idle as days go byi
Nv arms are full as the day Is long,
Full as my heart with its happy song.
Poor rich neighbor over the way,
Watching my baby and me at play,
What of your wealth il your heart is bare!
Tis to love and be loved that makes life SO fair.
So, neighbor mine, l can tell You true,
Indeed I'd rather be l than yon.

from the garden six rosy-cheeked apples,
mt them on plate, and presented them

must Law them aside for Il few days, that
they may become mellow" said the ia'h-
er, and Robert cheerfully placed the pia'e
with the apples in his mothers store

father laid on the plate seventh apple
which was quite rotten, and desired MIN
TO allow it to remain there
"But. fatherr' said Robert, "the rot
ten apple will spoil all the others"
"Do you think so? Why should not
fresh apples rather make the rotten one
fresh ." asked his father. And with
these words he shut the door OF the
room.
Eight days afterward he asked his son
to omen the door and take out the apples.
But what a sight presented itself! Inc
six apples which had been so round
and rosy checked were now quite rouen'
and spread a bad smell through the
room. ;,

yesterday is, under the rule in the
