Narrow Gungc Railways.

The Herald is gratilied to note that
our people are giving some thought to
the subject of narrow gunge railways
running out of Dallas to certain points
that will enable US to tap additional
trade. In conversation with one of
our principal business men, yesterday,
he expressed himself much Interested
in Mr.. Bremond's interesting views
on the subject, and was Of the opinion
that Dallas has ii in her power to in
crease her trade ten fold by wise and
liberal policy in this respect 1T must
be clear to all that the time for action
has come, we have had enough talk
and too many notifying tiascoGs in
the way of railway enterprises, let us
now put our own shoulder to the wheel
and let "natural advantages alone.

THEY DIDN'T THINK.

Once trap was baited
With piece Of cheese:
IL Gckled 90 q little mouse,
1t almost made him sneeze.
An old rat said, "There's danger;
Be careful where you gor'
Nonsense said the other
II don't think that you know"
So he walked in boldly
Nobody in sight;
First he took q nibble,
Then ne took a bite.
Close the trap together
Snapped, as quick rs wink,
Catching "mousey" fast there,
Cause he didn't think!
Once little turkey.
Fond of her own way,
Wouldn't ask the old ones
Where to 60 or stray.
She said, "Pm not baby;
Here I am halfgrown;
Surely i am big enough
To run about alone -
OFF she went; but Mister Fox,
Hiding, saw her pass;
Soon, like snow. her feathers
Covered all the grass.
So she was n supper
Ere the sun did sink,
Cause she was so headstrong
That she wouldn't think
Once there was n robin
Lived outside the door.
Who wanted to go inside,
And hop upon the floor.
"Oh now said the mother;
you must stay here with me;
Little birds are safest
Sitting in n tree"
II don't care" said Robin,
And gave his tail fling;
IL don't think the old folks
Know quite everything"
Down lie flew, and Kitty seized him
Fore he'd time to blink;
"Oh!' he cried, Pm sorry,
But didn't think %
Now, my little children,
You who read this song,
Don't you see what trouble
Comes Of thinking wrong?
And can't you take warning
From their dreadful fate,
Who began their thinking
When it was too late?
Don't think there's always safety
Where no danger shows;
Don't suppose you know moro
Than anybody knows.
But when you're warned of ruin,
Pause upon the brink,
And don't 60 over headlong,
Cause you didn't think
