A Novel Question Decided.

An Illinois court has Just been called
on to decide the novel question whether
the Governor OF State has the power to
revoke, after its execution, a warrant of
rendition for criminal issued in accord
ance with the requisition of the Cover
nor of another State. Gov. McCullom
had issued his warrant for the extradi-
tion to Nebraska of an alleged criminal,
but became convinced that it was his duty
to revoke the warrant before the transfer
of the prisnoer TO Nebraska, and it was
held by the court that the power to re-
woke rested in the Governor equally with
the power to issue.

A Song for New Year'sEve.

Stay yet, my friends, moment stay
Stay till the good old year,
30 long companion of our way,
Shakes hands and leaves us here.
49,, On stay, Oh stay,
One little hour and then away
The year whose hopes were high and strong,
has now 10 hope to wake:
Yet one hour more of jest and song
For his familiar sake
Oh stay, Oh stay,
Ono mirthful hour and then away.
The kindly year, his liberal hands
Have lavished all his store,
And shall we turn from where he stands,
Because he gives no more?
On stay, Oh stay,
One grateful hour and then away.
Days brightly came and calmly went.
While yet he was our guest;
How cheerfully the week was spent!
How sweet the seventh days rest!
Oh stay, Oh stay,
One golden hour and then away.
Dear friends were with us, some who sleep
Beneath the coffin lid;
What pleasant memories we keep
OF all they said and did!
On stay, Oh stay,
One tender hour and then away.
Rven while we sing he smiles his last,
And leaves our sphere behind.
The good old year is with the past;
Oh be the new as kind!
On stay, Oh stay,
One parting strain, and then away.

January /.

Winter is come again. The sweet south-Wes
Is a forgotten wind, and the strong earth
Has laid aside its mantle to be bound
By the frost fetter. There is not sound,
Save of the skaters heel, and there is laid
An icy finger on the lip Of storms,
And the clear icicle hangs cold and still,
And the snowfall is noiseless as "a thought.
Spring has rushing sound and Summer sends
MANY sweet voices with its odors out,
And Autumn rustleth its decaying robe
With complaining whisper. Winters dumb |!
God made his ministry silent one,
And he has given him a foot of steel
And an unlovely aspect, and breath
Sharp to the senses-and we know that He
Tempereth well, and hath meaning hid
Under the shadow of His hand. Look up;
And it shall be Interpretation home
Hath a temptation now! There is no voice
OF waters with beguiling for your ear,
And the cool forest and the meadows green
Witch not your feet away; and in the dells
There are no yiolets, and upon the hills
There are no sunny places to lie down.
You must go in, and by your cheerful fire
Wait for the offices of love, and hear
Accents OF human tenderness, and feast
Your eye upon the beauty of the young.
1t is season for the quiet thought,
And the still reckoning with thyself. The year
Gives back the spirits of IS dead, and time
Whispers the his DRY of its vanished hours;
And the heart, calling it's affections up,
Counteth its wasted ingots. Life stands still
And settles like a fountain, and the eye
Sees clearly through its depths, and noteth all
That stirred its troubled waters It is well
That winter with the dying year should come

Ring out wild bells to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light:
The year Is dying in the night:
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Ring out the grief that saps the mind,
For those that here we see no more;
Ring out the feud of rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind.
Ring out a slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
Ring out the want, the care, the sin.
The faithless GOODNESS of the times:
Ring out, ring out my mournful rhymes
But ring the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic SANDER and the spite;
Ring in the love Of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.
Ring out old shapes of foul disease;
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free;
The larger heart, the kindler hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Ring in the Christ that is to be.

Honor Among Thieves.

BeI!ew, in MS account of the mission
which he accompanied into hfghanisran,
tells most remarkable story, which NAV
be quoted as illustrating not only the de-
termination which the race is capable OF.
but of a sense of honor-such WAS the
word the relator used; and although il
is only honor among thieves, there was
mixed with it desire for the honor Of
the family to which the hero Of the story
belonged, which wouic be creditable
anywhere.
The person who tells the tale was cali
ed Khan Gul, and he was one Of the at
ors In it. The whole of his family had,
at former period, become band of rob-
bers, which occupation they practiced.
seemingly on the sly, and their neighbors
They had determined on robbing house
at some distance and gong thnIe during
the night they made hole through the
mud wall. Khan GUS brother, like
Oliver Twist. was passed in, and he be-
gan to hand out whatever was within his
reach.
The people of the house CHANGED to
waken up, upon which the brother tried
to make his escape, but while in he act
of returning through the hole in the wall
those On the INSIDE caught him by the
feet. Now began tug like the "tug of
war; iiercely they pulled to get him out
of the hole, but it vas useless; those with
in had one OF two holding oa to each leg,
and the burglar was held a. if in wise.
The fear that they would be recognized
and detected became at last the domin-
ant feeling, and, as they could not posi-
bly, pull INN out, they determined on an
extreme measure, and one so very ex-
If me that it is hard to believe it could
have occurred to any others than these
knife-using Afshans.
The only plan left TO prevent identity
was 10 cut off the head, carry it away and
leave the body; and the very striking
part ofthis tale lies in The TACT that it
was done at the suggestion of the man
himself, and, as be expressed at the in
slant, so t at "the honor Of the family
rsight be preserved undet ed" This was
done. Tney fed with the head only,
leaving al! the spoil which had been
thrown out, and, as Khan Gut ended the
story, he thanked Goo that the honor CT
the house had by means been preserved.

The next morning the traveller, de-
Ginning the pressing solicitation to break

SWELL, sir" continued he, s'since you
will not permit me to recompense YOU
for your trouble, it is just that should
inform you on whom you have conferred
SO many Obligations, and also add to
them, by requesting your assistance in

Surprise kept the listener silent for a

ing the invitation to partake of some re-
freshment,he fastened to call two negroes,
with whose assistance he placed the horse
on small raft Of timber that was lying
III the river, near the door, and soon CON
veyed the General to the opposite side
of the river, where he left him to pursue
his way to the camp, wishing him safe
