What is a Newspaper.

Organs that gentlemen play
To answer tho tastes Of the day;
Whatever it be,
They hit on the key,
And pipe In full concert away.
News from all countries and climes,
Advertisements, essays, and rh ymes.
Mixed up with all sorts
Of (f)lying reports,
And published at regular timer.
Articles able and wise,
At least in the editors eyes.
And logic so grand
That few understand
To what in the world it applies
Sta tistics, reflections, reviews,
Little scraps to instruct and amuse.
And lengthy debate
Upon matters Of state,
For wiso-headed folks to peruse.
And funds as they were and are,
And quibbles and quirks of the Bar,
And every week
oieNer SEitiquo
On some rising theatrical star.
The age Of Jppiter's moons,
The stealing Of somebody's spoons,
The state Of the crops,
Tho style Of the fops,
And the wit Of the public buffoons.
List of all physical ills
Banished BY somebody's pills;
Till you ask with surprise
Why any one dies,
Or what's the disorder that kills.
Who has got married. to whom;
Who were out off in their bloom;
Who has had birth
On this sorrow.stained earth,
Aud who totters fast to the tomb.
The prices of cattle and grain,
Directions to dig aud to drain:
But 'twolld take too long
To tell you in song
A quarter Of what they contain.

There is general prediction and promise
in Missouri of big crops. this year. Wheat
already stands thick on the ground, is of
rich dark green color, and is already
beginning to head out in the lower
counties Farmers with choice fields are
predicting that they will make from thirty
to forty bushels per acre. There are re-
ports OF chinch- bugs and grasshoppers in
few localities, but there is little sppre.
hension Of trouble from them, Plosing
for corn is backward, by reason OF the
high water and the frequent rains, but
the fields are being actively broken up
now, aud, by the end Of this month. corn.
planting will be finished. The meadows are
said to look unusually we'll, and to prom.
ise a large yield of hay. A scarcity Of
small fruits is probable, but there will be
some peaches, and the apple crop will be
abundant.

A SINGULAR CAREER OF CRIME.-Arthur
X. Bre ed, one of the most dangerous crimi-
nails in this country, died recently at the
Auburn Insane Asylum. The history of
Breed is a singular one. By birth he was
descended from distinguished Kentucky
family. Breeds father is now q prominent
merchant In Louisville. In his early youth
he was given to all kinds OF dissipation, and
1t is said that In Paducah he lost SIC, 900 on a
cock fight OF three mains. He had a fine
education and could speak English, French,
German, and Italian f1uently. He came to
this city am by force of his talent and ad-
dress obtained the position OF Washington
correspondent of one of the principal daily
papers. While in Washington he filled for a
short time the position of private secretary
10 Senator Morgan. Finally, however, he
dfifted into crime, and having committed
an extensive forgery in this city, Detective
Elder was placed on his track. He had
nothing beyond q general description OF
Breed, except the fact that Breeds nose was
of an abnormal size. On this clue he sue
ceeded In arresting him at Broadway and
Clinton place. When arraigned before JUS
tice Hogan, at the Tombs, Breed attempted
to swallow the check he had forged, but was
half choked and forced to disgorge by Detec-
lives Elder and Nevins. He was convicted
and sent to Sing Sing for seven years by
Recorder Hackett. From Sing Sing he was
drafted to Auburn, where he diet.-[N Y.

A TEACHER CHARGED WITH CRUEL TY
TO CHILDREN.-Mr. q. T. Gilchrist and
others have made charges against Mr.. Bre-
mer, Principal of the Fourth Ward School,
OF Bayonne, of cruelty to children. He is
charged with having struck one boy on the
head with book, OF having picked up
another and dropped him several times
upon the floor, and of having thrown a third
so violently against a desk as to seriously
ipjure his head. He is also charged with
using ungentlemanly language, and with
having called scholars "lfars" In presence
of their comrades. The examination into
the case was begun Monday night, and Mr..
Pardoe, the father of one OF the children
testified that q blow on the head had so in
jured his son that he since had constant at

RELIGIOUS ExCITEMENT-THEN SUICIDE.
One of the most attentive listeners to Moody
and Sankey in the Brooklyn Rink was Mrs.
Elizabeth Azure, OF 446 18th street. She be-
came profoundly impressed, and after the
evan geBsts' departure was SO much occu-
pied In religious exercises that she neglected
her family duties and ate and slept only a
little. This began to affect her mind, and
after time she gave unmistakable symp-
toms of mental arrangement. She started
from her home on the 18th OF April, saying
that she would return in short time, but
all search for her was unavailing until yes
terday her dead body was found floating In
the Gowanus canal at the foot OF 4th street.
1t Is supposed that she committed suicide
