rection. The only objection to them that
comes to us, of any force, is that the weight
of our SHOWS will require stronger supports !;
and to meet this we only have to make them
stronger. Tar and gravel on such roofs do
not give quite satisfaction, but we believe
that fiat roofs covered with some fire and
water proof paint or cement, will yet be the
order OF the day.
We conclude as we began, by saying that
there is large opportunity and reward in this
direction for successful invention.

POETRY.
Sunset ON the Bearcamp.
BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.

A gold fringe on the purpling hem
Of hills the river runs,
As down its long, green valleys falls
The last OF summers suns.
Along its tawny gravel bed
Br0ad-fowing, swift, and still,
As II its meadow levels felt
The hurry of the bill.
Noiseless between its banks of green
From curve to curve it slips;
The drowsy maple-shadows rest
Like fingers on its lips.
A waif from CAROLS widest hills.
Unstoried and unknown;
The ursine legend of its name
Prowls ON its banks alone.
Yet flowers as fair its slopes adorn
As ever Yerrow knew,
Or, under rainy Irish skies,
By Sponsors Mulla grew;
And through the gaps OF leaning trees
Its mountain cradle shows;
The gold against the amethyst,
The green against the rose.
Touched by light that hath no name,
A glory never sung,
Aloft on sky and mountain wall
Are Gods great pictures hung.
How changed the submits vast and old
No longer granite-browed,
They melt in rosy mist; the rock
Is softer than the cloud;
The valley holds its breath; no leaf
OF all its elms is twirled;
The silence OF eternity
Seems falling on the world.
The pause before the breaking seals
OF mystery is this;
Yon miracle play of night and dry
Makes dumb its witnesses.
What unseen altar crowns the hills
That reach up stair on stair?
What eyes look through, what white wings fan
These purple wells of air?
What Presence from the heavenly heights
To those OF earth stoOps down!
Not vainly Hellas dreamed of gods
On lda's snowy crown!
Slow fades the vision of the sky,
The golden water pales,
And over all the valey-land
A gray winged vapor sails.
/ 60 the common way OF all;
The sunset fires will burn
The flowers will blow, the river flow,
When no more return.
No whisper from the mountain pine
Nor lapsing stream shall tell
The stranger, treading where tread,
OF him who loved them well.
But beauty seen is never lost,
Gods colors all are fast;
The glory of this sunset heaven
Into my soul has passed
A sense of gladness unconfined
To mortal date or cline;
As the soul liveth, it shall live
Beyond the years of time.
Beside the mystic asphodes
Shall bloom the home-born flowers,
And new horizons flush and glow
With sunset hues of ours.
FAREWELL these smiling hills must wear
Too soon their wintry frown,
And snow-cold winds from off them shake
The naples red lea yes down.
But shall see a summer sun
Still setting broad and low;
The mountain slopes shall blush and bloom,
The golden water flow.
A lovers claim is mine on all
1 see to have and hold
The rose-light of perpetual hills
And sunsets never cold!

colored man, is a sound Conserva-
tive, supports Tilden and Hen
bricks, but is for Yardley, the col
ored candidate Of bis section for
Governor. He is a man of fine
appearance, easy address, extensive
travel and good education. In
1869 he supported Senter and
favored Acknowledgement, although
publishing a paper in old Blount,
the most bitter Radical county at
that time in the State. Since then
he has c~o-oporated with the Conser-
vative party, and his county has
become entirely liberalized. Much
of the change is due to his efforts.
He deserves great credit for the
manly stand he has made against
Radicalism. AS to his support Of
Yardley, we presume that is upon
personal grounds and race sym
pathy. Mr.. Scott publishes an ex-
cellent paper, and we hope that
many of our citizens will subscribe
for it, at least for the campaign
only fifty cents-while he is here.
He remains only a day or two. Go
