The summer bright, the summer fair,
The summer, sweet, serene, dlscloses
In all its realm of riches rare
No other blooms that can compare
With June's delicious roses.
Springs cloudy DAYS and summers heats
SD Come when life only gropes and proses,
But life is redolent of sweets
When poetry the spirit greets
And scsters sweet June roses.
Lies June-what shs II we call those hours
In which the soul, serene, reposes
Their bloom dispelling gloom that lowers,
Their perfume ste aling from loves bowers, -
All! these are LIES June roses.
BETTER THINGS.
Better to smell the violet cool than sip the glow
Better to bark hidden brook than watch dia-

Better the love of gentle heart than beauty's ia

Better the roses living seed than roses in crowd
Better to love in loneliness than to bask in love all

Better the fountain in the heart than the fountain

Better be fed by mothers hand than to eat alone

Better to trust 10 good than say "My goods

Better to teach little child than toll to fill perfec-

Better to walk the real unseen than watch the

SUCCESSFUL PLEA OF LEROY B.
vALLIANT.

From the 81. Louis Republican.
Yesterday in the United States
district court q motion In arrest Of
Judgment was argued In The case
Of Tho United States W.. John W.
Elder, who was convicted last No
vember for using the mails for
fraudulent purposes (ior the con-
vcyance Of counterfeit money! In
violation Of section $3.50 Revised
Statutes, which reads as follows:
Section $3.50. "lf any person
having devised or intending to de-
wise any scheme or artifcc to de-
fraud, 'OR' be effected by either
opening or intending to open cor
rcspondence or communication
with any other person, whether
resident In or outside of the Uni
ted States, by means Of the post
oilicc establishment Of the United
States," &c.
The motion IN arrest was based
upon the ground that by reason OF
a palpablc defect in the statute no
offence is defined, and therefore no
offence was committed by the de-
tendant, and judgment must be ar
rested. Judge L. u. Valiant, coun-
sci for thctlefcndant. urged in his
argument that IT was the evident
intention Of Congress to punish
the use OF the mails in furtherance
not simply Of schemes devised to
defraud, but schemes "TO be Of.
fectcd" by opening correspond
encc through the postofiice. The
statute read "OR be effected, y
which rendered 1t meaningless.
District Attorney Bliss argued
10 tho effect that, while it was the
apparent intention of congress te
enact law for the purpose of pre-
. venting the fraudulent use of tn,
! postofiice department by mailing
, or receiving through the mail
letters in pursuance OF schemes de
