Texas Wheat.

the wheat product OF Texas:
he heart OF the true Texan rejOces when
ne reads of his State grandly booming up as
great wheat country. The northern c6un-
ties last year, produced in round numbers 3,
9h'ooo bushels. The estimates of the Dallas

JOSEPH, THE NEE PIERCE.

From the northern desDlation
Comes n cTysof exultatiOn:
lit is ended. He hath yielded. And the stub
born fight is worI'
Let the nation in its glory
Glow with shame before the story
OF the hero it has ruined and the evil II has
done.
How he prayed while hope remained.
Tho the white mans hands were stained
With the binod that cried for vengeance OF ms
murdered kin and clan.
For the home the good God gave h;m'
And the treaty sworn TO save him.
For the shelter OF his children, Tor the rlght 10
be man.
Then the troops began to hound him,
And he called his braves 10 follow, and ne
smOte them hip and thigh.
But the hosts grew Vast and vaster,
And the whiriwind of disaster
Drove him out into the mountains and be-
meath an alien sky,
Through the continental ridges,
Over totterin2 torrent bridges.
By the verge of black abysses, in the shade of
mountains hoar;
Months he jnurneyed, toiling, daring,
With an army traied behind him and another
crouched before.
Thrice the sudden blow descended,
Roar aud flash and clashirg blended:
Twice his rear guard stopped and checked
them till the hunted tribe were free.
Once he reeled hut swiftly rallied,
Forth upon his spoilers sailed.
Drove them Lead!ong Into shelter, captured
all their carnunry.
But the mountains could not shield him,
And the snowy heights revealed him,
And the false friends would not aid him, and
his goal was TAR away;
Rurdencd 10y his weak and wounded.
Stripped and harried and surrounded,
Still the cRieItain OF the NOrthiund, Ike "a lion,
stood at bay.
From the freedom that he sought for,
From the dear land that he fought for.
He is riven hY nation that has spurned its
plighted word:
BY the Christians who have given
TO the neutrality-suspicious. HeHTpn!-
With the one hand THEFT and Ia lsehoo :, with
the other ball and sword.
