THE DRowsY SENrINEL.-A general,
after gaining great victory, was en-
camping with his army for the night.
He ordered watch to be kept all around
the camp as usual. One of the senti-
nels. as be went to his station, grumbled
to himself, and said, "Why could not the
general let us have quiet nights rest
for once, after beating the enemy? /
am sure there is nothing to be afraid
Of"
The man then went to his station and
stood for some time looking about him.
1t was a bright night, with harvest
moon, but, as he could see no sign of
danger anywhere, he said to himself,
Il am terribly tired, / shall sleep for
just five minutes, out OF the moonlight,
under the shadow of this tree" SO he
lay down.
Presently he started up, dreaming
that some one bad pushed a lantern be-
fofe his eyes, and he found that the
moon was shining brightly down on
him through the branches Of the tree
above him. The next minute an arrow

field before him seemed alive with sol.
diers in dark green coats, who spranc

been silently creeping onward, and
rushed toward him.
Fortunately the arrow had missed
him; SO be shouted aloud to give the
alarm, and ran back to some other SEN
tinels. The army to which he belonged
was thus saved, and the soldier said,
Il shall never forget, as long as l live.

THE AGREEMENT OF A JuRY.-Why
must twelve men agree? This question
is exciting considerable attention. Inp9l-
itics and other matters, the majority
rules. A majority of one on the hehssi
of the United States Supreme Court
decides the most important isstie, svt
a majority of ten inside jury box is
not sufficient to control the larceny Of
a pair Of boots. Before the Norman
Conquest, the verdict Of two-thirds Of
the jury had prevailed in English Courts,
but in the reign of Edward III, it was
settled that the twelve must agree
The recruitment seems wholly absurd.
Several able writers have attacked The
practice, Hallam, in his History OF
the Nj dle Ages refers to that pre-
posterous relic Of barbarisu,, the re-
auirement Of unanimity in jury. y
So we may repeat: If the majority
rules in all other associations of our ess.
iliz,,ion, why not in court Of just
ice? .ar-t.t-

IN MENORIAM.

On the bosom Of a river.
W here the sun uploosed his quiver
And The starlight CLEANED forever,
Sail-d a vessel Iigh, and free.
Morning dewdrcps hing like mama
On the bright folds Of her banner,
And the zephyrs rose to fan her,
Softly 10 The radiant sea.
AtheY prov a pilot beamisg
In the fash Of youth stood dreaming.
And he was In glorious seeming
Like an angel from above.
Through bis hair the brrrzcs sported,
And as on the wave he hosted, ...a
on than pilot, angei-throAted, --.r
Warbied lays Of hope and iove.
Through those locks 20 blithely flowing.
Buds OF laurel bloom were blowing,
And his hands anon were throwing
Music from Tyre Of gold
swiftly down the stream he giided,
Son the purple waves divided,
And a rainbow arch abided,
On his canvass snowy fold.
Anxious hears with fond devotion
Watched him sailing 10 the ocean,
PTaye ihat never wild eommotiop
Mid ibe elements might rise.
And he SEEMED like some Apollo
Charming Summer winds TO follow,
bile the water flags carolla
Trembied TO his music sighs.
But those purple waves enchanted
Rolled beside city haunted
by an awful spell that daunted
Every corner TO The shore
Night shade rank the air encumbered.
4 nd the pale marble statue nun bered
here the lotus eaters slumbered,
And awoke TO life no more.
Then there rushed with lightning quickuess,
q oer his lace mortal sickness,
And The dew in fearful thickness
Gathered DER his temples fair.
And there swept a dying murmur,
Through the lovely Southern Summer.
As the beau'eons pilot conner
ferished by that city there.
Still rolls on that radiant river
And the sun unbinds his quirer,
nj The sunlight streams forever
On its bosom as before
But the vessels ruinhow banner
Grce,s no more the gav savanna,
And that pilots lutte drops mamma
On the purple waves no more.

BRAzrL.-The territorial extent of
Brazil, over which Dom Pedro reigns,
exceeds that of the United States, though
its population is only ten millions. OF
this population from one quarter to one
third is white. Less than q million are
slaves, and provision has been made for
gradual emancipation. When inquiries
We're made of the Emperor on this SUBJ
ject he said that he desired to bring
about emancipation in such a manner
as would not infict injury upon either
race. No person born after Sept. %,
1871, can be held as a slave. Public
education is promoted; the public debt
is $500, 100000; the cost of government
only$4l ,O00, 900; the revenues in excess of
expenditures. The exports of Brazil
to this country are said to be three or
four times as much as she imports from
us. She sells her hides, horns and Rio
Coffee here, and buys her cotton goods
and manufactured ware in England.
All intelligent travellers who have
visited Brazil speak in the most glow
ing terms of the country. Professor
Agassiz regarded it as the most pro-
ductive and interesting country on the
globe, and the one in which it is the
easiest to obtain n livelihood. Some
who have sailed up the Amazon declare
that vessel can be loaded with Brazil
nuts at an expense of only few cents
per bushel. These constitute q valua-
bic article of commerce, while the oil
extracted from them is very desirable.
All the tropical fruits are produced in
Brazil almost without cultivation. The
soil in many parts of the country will
produce twenty successive crops of cot
ton, tobacco, or sugar cane, without the
application of manure. No country in
the world approaches the land Of Dom
Pedro in the variety Of its forest pro-
ductions.
Professor Agassiz states that he saw
liz different kinds of valuable woods
that were cut from a piece of land not
half mile square. They represented
almost every variety of color, and many
of them We're capable of receiving a
high polish. One tree furnishes wax
that is used for candles, another pith
that is used for food, and still another
yields q juice which is used in the place
of intoxicating liquors. There is a sim
gle variety of palm from which the ma
tives obtain food, drink, clothing, bed
ding, cordage, fishing tackle, medicine,
and the material they manufactured
into dwellings, weapons, harpoons and
musical Instruments. Doubtless the
day is not distant when the valuable
woods of Brazil will be used for vari-
Gus useful and ornamental purposes
Brazil is not only wooden country"
but country that produces the most
wonderful woods in the world.

A outlet, o bird from the windy heath
Where we had wandered happy and mute;
itwas q silent day with us
In the early time Il il ofen thus;
But my sweet love chasted when came the
fruit.
Flavor Of suabnrnt nectarine
And the light that danced thro' the wineelass
thin,
Filled with juice Of the gr.pe Of Rhine:
She talked and laughed about this and that.
Easy, exqaieitss- -lSolish chat.
While her pretty, Antsering band sought mine
And thought: Come glory or come distress,
In this wonderful weary wilderness,
This hour is mine till the day Of death;
The fruit the wine, and my lady fair,
With q flower Of the heath in her dim brown
hair.
And sigh Of love in her fragrant breath.
