Brute Creation.

The rights of all creatures are to be
respected, but especially Of those kinds
which man domesticates and subsidies
for his peculiar use Their nearer con-
tact with the human world creates
claim on our loving-kindness beyond
what is due to more foreign and IN
tanned tribes. Respect that claim.
4" The righteous man." says the proverb,
regardeth the life of his beast" Note
that word righteous" The proverb
does not say the merciful man, but the
righteous, the just. Not mercy only,
but justice, is due to the brute. Your
horse, your OK, your kline, your dog, are
not mere chattels, hut sentient souls.
They are not your own SO proper as to
make your will the true and only mea-
sure of their lot Beware of contra
vening their natures law, of taxing I'M
duly their natures strength. Their
powers and gifts are "a sacred trust. The
gift of the horse is his feetness, but
when that gift is strained to excess and
put to wager for exorbitant tasks, muir
derous injustice is done to the noble
beast. They have their rights, which
every right-minded owner will respect.
We owe them in return for the service
they yield, all needful comfort. kind
usage. rest in old age, and an easy
death

INDIAN SUMMER.

AT last the toll encountered days are oyer,
And airs of noon are mellow as the morn;
The blooms are brown upon the sc ding clover,
And brown the silks that plume the ripening
corn.
All sounds are hIshed of reaping and OF moving;
The winds are low; the waters lie uncurled-
Nor thistle-down nor gossamer is flowing.
So lull'd in lauguid Incidence the world,
And vineyards wide and farms along the valley
Are mute amid the vintage and the sheayes,
Save round the barns the noise of rout and sally
Among the tenant maSonS of the caves.
Affair the upland glades feeked in dapples
BY iocks of lambs a-gambOl from the fold;
And orchards bend benea.-- their weight OF
apples,
And groves arebright in scarlet and in gold.
But bark! Ihear the pheasant's mufied drum
ming,
The turtles murmur from distant dell,
drow-y bee in may tangles hnmmtng,
The far, faint, tinkling tenor of a bell.
And now from yonder beech-trunk sheer and
sterile
The rat-tat of the yellow-hammer's bill,
The sharp staccatO barking of the squirrel,
dropping nut, and all again is still.

THE BACHELOR'SLFE.
JIM PANTON.

oh, lonely and said is the bachelors life,
Too old or too ugly to get him wife.
With no one to scold when his dinner Is cold,
Aud no one 70 care for him when he is old
Through the long winter eve, in his garnet SO high,
lie winks at the stars IL the pitiess sky,
While the moon floods his room with her siiYery
light,
And wonders to find hin alone every night
He lives all alone till he's gray az rat,
His only companion dog or a cat;
So he goes u his nest at the top of the town,
And no body cares if he never comes down.
Just fancy the world full of bachelor men.
And maideI.s minated What then? What
then?
These would go back to heaven; the others, in
stead,
Would go to the man with the horns on his head
Oh. lonely and sad is the bachelors life
Toopoor or too stngy TO take him wife,
But the man that is married hath riches untold,
And some one to care for him when he is old.
