POETRY.
Cousin VIII.
BY PHILIP MORSE.

strolled last night in musing mood
Rejecting on my lonely state;
Till, wearied out at last, 1 paused
And leaned upon garden gate.
The old moons mellow radiance hung
In golden mists among the trees,
Faint odors, borne from distant MOVERS,
Ebbed idly on the evening breeze.
As thus stood, absorbed in thought,
1 pressed against the gate too hard,
- 1t opened with a sudden jerk
found myself within the yard.
A form came gliding down the walk -
Soft arms embraced me, as, perplexed,
stood one blissful moment, while
A sweet voice soothed my ear; the next
1t rose into ashrek then sobbed:
go sir. how could you keep so still!
When all the time knolo you knew
Thought you were my cousin WILL
These stars are moons or rather months;
Just five have fitted since that night,
And two of these have calmly shone
Upon our welded life. 1t quite
Surprises me to think of it.
And she is queenly, tall and fair,
With lustrous eyes, and such a wealth;
Orwell we call it auburn hair.
$50 late?" I've just come from the club;
My wife sits silent, but a light
Unseen before, turks in her eye.
Once more muse on that calm night
When first she met me at the gate,
And wonder, while her eyes flame still,
If ever 1, in days to come
Shall wish it had been cousin Will.

Suffering Emigrants.

From Las Cruces Eco, July :: An emigrant train of five wagons from Chicago, III, barely escaped perishlng on the plain between White Water and San Augustin Springs, on account of having lost the road. Their supply of water having been used uD and not having any for several hours, everyone struck out for himself Two of the women reached San Augustin nearly exhausted from fatigue and thirst, and after taking a drink at the spring faint ed and were in a precarIous condition when our informant, Robert Johnson, left for this place. After the women had been cared for, MT Shedd, prOprie- tor of San AuguStIn Ranch, immedi- ately sent an ambulance with water to meet the sufferers and bring the chil- dren to the ranch. We have not learn ed whether the ambulance had reached them or not but It is probable it did. The emigrants are bound for San Pc dro, Arizona. A guideboard which would cost probably one dollar would obviate further difficulties of this kind, and we hope our County Commission CTS will give it their attention.

4 correspondent of the Anaheim Ga zette says: We stopped about two
 miles south of Santa Ana to see NIT.
 Andrews big well, and were surprised to see so much water flowing from it
 It was capped, and is flowing only about one-ifth of its volume But a ditch three and a half feet wide at the bottom was running a rapid stream four inches deep. When the cap is removed, it throws a stream the full size of the pipe-siX inches-forty- three inches above the top of the pipe, and the pipe is eIght feet above the ground. The water rises with such force that when they first tried to cap it, boxes of sand, eic., weighing l50 pounds, were lifted by the stream. MT. Andrews unscrewed the cap, turning on all the ditch could carry, and had a strong running stream 43f feet on the bottom, 415 feet on the top, and l3 inches deep. The water has been car ried three miles, and if there were ditches il would run more than double the distance There is enough to run considerable machinery, and we wish it would be utilized. This well is 200 feet deep, the last 100 feet being through blue clay, and we advise all who have not seen 1t 10 do sO
