When thistle-blows do lightly float
About the pasture-height,
And shrills the hawk parting note,
And creops the frost at night,
Then hilly no though singing so,
And whistle AZ may,
There comes again the old heart pain
Through all the liyelong day
In high win 4 croaks the leahess tree
And mods the fading fern;
1ho knolls are dun as snow-clouds be,
And cold the sun does burn.
Then no, holo though calling 30,
| cannot keep it down;
Aud tears arise unto my eyes,
And thoughts are chill and brown.
Far in the cedars dusky stoles,
Where the sere ground-vine woaves,
The partridge drums funeral rolls
Above the fallen leaves.
And hip, hip, no though cheering SO,
1t stills no whit the pain;
For drip, drip, drip, from bare branch-tip,
hear the years last rain.
SO driva the cold COWS from the hill,
Aud call the wet sheep in;
And let their stamping clatter Gil

That We no more may roam,
We still will find cheerful mind
Around the fire at home

A New Game,

A man went into a restaurant last
night, and, mounting a high stool, lean
ed over the counter and ordered a por-
terhouse steak with eggs on the side,
and some ale and oysters to begin with.
In about half an hour he had finished
his repast and was beginning to DELHI
crate on what kind of dessert he would
wind up on, when a man walked in,
and, tapping him on the shoulder, re-
marked:

Cardinal Manning, in an article in
the Nineteenth Century, on the Va
tican Council, says: "Of thirty-six
crowned heads ten are still Catholic,
two are of the Greek separation, and
t~wenty-four are nominal Protestant.
The people Of many and great nations
are faithful and fervent children of the
Catholic Church, but the revolution,
either openly or secretly, in its sub
stance or in its spirit, is behind every
throne and in almost every government
and legislature of the Christian world.
The public laws, eve of the nations in
which the people are Catholic, are Cath
olic no longer. The unity of the nations
in faith and worship, as the Apostles
founded it, seem now to be dissolved.
The unity of the church is more COM

THE BRAvEsr OF TIE BRAVE.
A Hero With Long Yellow Hair and
Wearing Buekstin"-A Brave Soldier
Described by Red Horse and
Other Indian Chiefs Identified.

1t will be remembered that in the re-
Gently published statement of Red
Horse, a Minneconjou s%ub-chief, who
was a witness and a participant in the
attack on Major Reno, and the massa-
ere Of General Clusters command in
the fight on the Little Big Horn, he
mentions the remarkable bravery of an
officer having long yellow hair. and
who rode a horse with four white feet.
Red Horse said that the Indians all
united in declaring this man the BRAY
est man they had eve met, and that he
alone saved his command q number of
times by turning on his horse in the
retreat. This has been supposed to
refer to General Custer, but such a sup
position Is an error The Pioneer Press
publishes a statement, based on high
military authority, that the officer re-
ferred to was not in Custer's command
at all, but that Il close reading of ome
what confused narrative viii show that
Red Horse at this point was speaking
of Reno's retreat across Greasy Grass
creek. There was but one man in
Reno's three companies who wore buck
skin. The Indians, of course, did not
know him, but the soldiers in the real
retreating column did, and it has been
for some time known to army officers
who was the ''yellow-haired hero in
buckskin" of this gallant fight against
savages in the real of a flying column.
His name is Thomas H. French, captain
in the Seventh cavalry, and who is now
at Fort Rice. 1t is not credible, the
fact that no mention of his gallant al d
heroic service in that days bloody fight
was made in the official report of the
battle by Major Reno, and that the first
public mention of his magnificent brav-
cry was made in narratives taken from
the lips of savages, whose admiration
of his gallantry and daring was one of
the most vivid expressions which the
battle made upon them. New York
Times.

A Berlin correspondent writes of
Kaiser William: THE Emperor cele-
brates this month his eightieth birth
day; he is strong, lusty, and full of
spirits. He gets along very well now
with his Parliament, because in all
cases of difficulty they always yield. In
his theories of parliament and preroga-
tive, His Majesty holds about the
standpoint of Edward l., but the people
respect the old hero for his unconquer-
BILE honesty and for the fidelity with
which he fulills all the duties, however
severe, of his great Office. 1t is a curl
Gus circumstance, however, that this
Prince, who has fought so many great
battles, has always refused to sign the
death-warrant of a prisoner. Capital
punishment is still the law in Prussia,
but His Majesty has committed every
sentence of death passed since his Access
sion to the throne. In some respects
his heart is a. tender as a woman's."
