r THOUGHTS.

w ritsen far the Ledger by a correspon-
dent OF the Saturday Evening Post.
Some peets write alone for fame,
Some for wealth, more than n name:
Some for the good which they may dc.
THE latter, though, [ think are few
Ny present object, rs you'll fnG,
is to complain of all mankind;
OF what theYsdo and what They say,
And l may suggest Il better way.
There's Madam Gossip, by the way,
Who tells you all her ncighbors say.
b eknows who's counting, WHO are wed
And who are sick. and who are dead.
How much the town in wealth has lost,
And what her neighbours bonnst~cpa
hen all her vicious darts are HURLED.
Shesig hs this wicked. wicked world.'
We Christian people sing and pray,
Aad daily walk the narrow way:
So Lare ae are We would not stretch
Our hand to save a sinking wretch,
But pass him by: with conscious stride
We draw our righteous robes aside,
And With our pious noses curled
Exctaim, ITS such a wicked worlI.''
And now my muse goes idly straying.
Both thought and pen the while de-
laying.
And | forget nv present theme
And Idly sit and idly dream,
Of what I've seen, alld still must see
of things which are and ought to be.
In pensive mood my pen | whirl
And SIGH 'it's such a curious world"
And thus we live and thus We die
Never content. the Lord knows why.
T is our owa tautt, at least | take it.
This world is what We people make it;
For if we had it as we would,
We'd re-arrange it if W. could,
And ii it were with diamonds purled-
We'd call it such a horrid world."
We're it not well to look within
When We would talk OF others sin,
To cI,eer and aid II sinking brozher
And do our best 70 o.e another?
Take justice for our daily guide,
Do right whatever may betide'
And with our balners all unfurled,
We'd soon reciaisu t 4is wiched world.

IO! FOR THE

We learn that certain gentlemen of
Mexico, Interested in the Ruggle's
land, contemplate q trip to the Rio
Grande. The object they have In
view we do not know; it is, prob
ably, to see that goodly Land, and
to take one long, glad look at
their rich possessions there. From
the past and present relatio"
of those men to that land, they are
suitable parties to visit it, and their
report will he looked for with a great
deal of interest. 1t is to he hoped.
as a colony has been organized, for
the sake OF Agriculture an. .i,r-
ticulturc" they Will hing hal sam
pies Of the gain and vegetables Of
that region; bring also, specimens Of
the minerals which 50 abound there.
Samples OF salt from It's salt mines.
and coal from that 12 foo vein. e
could not expect specimens OF It's
timber which grows there In such
magniicence. but you could give lis
some idea of its dimensions, its
height and girth. Tell us something
of those towns to be laid of, with
broad streets and spacious parks, and
of those mill sites, which are SO inn
portant to q country SO rich in agri-
cultural products and SO Astounding
in timber. AS the gentlemen are
men of intelligence and culture, WE
would suggest that they write up then
trip, we would guarantee the columns
of the LEDGER if they wished them
With what eager expectation the pub
lie would look for the story. But i
is possible the gentlemen are intend
ing to remain there. Some OF then
are lawyers, and Is we heard one Q
them say it was the best point in the
world for a store, SO on the sam
principle it is a good place to start :
law office, and they will probably sta,
and hang out their shingle on tina
"shining shore.'One of them is 8 Lane
agent. There is land without E:ni
waiting for purchasers; another is
farmer, here in this rich agriculture
country all his hopes would be me
and all his expectations filled. Sta,
gentlemen, and the glory of foundin
the Rio Grande Colony will be yours
