FAMILY TIES.

My brother hates my daughters son
My son his aunt desplses
My uncle thinks his wife's fool,
In spite of loves DISCUSSES
For fifteen years my cousin John
Has cut his only brother;
And sister Susan hates the lot
Because they hate their mother.
When Uncle Thomas dimes with me,
He makes 1t a condition
That he shall meet no klth or kin,
Whatever their position
And though my grandmother declares
That we should love relations,
She thinks her niece Amelia's boys
Are "two denominations !"
I've done my best to bring about
A better state of feeling,
By quoting texts against deceit,
Ill-will, and double dealing.
But what's the use, while Cousin Tom,
With Jane and Joe and Johnny,
Are In aplot-the hyprocrites =
To get poor granny's money.
And while my brother Williams wife
Thinks it her special duty
To snub my dear Maria Jane
Because she is "the beauty"
And while my scandalous old aunt,
With voice like nutmeg crater,
Declares 'tis make all the row
Good gracious how hate her!
OF all who bear the name, we count
No less than thirty-seven,
Each one of whom, of course, expects
Some day to go to heaven
And as the families increase
In numbers quite alarming,
The prospect, when we meet above,
Is certainly not charming.
know It's said that "heaven is love-"
Where mortal passion ceases,
And sweet affection, peace, and Joy
Perpetually increases
But, as exceptions prove the rule"
I've got a sort of notion
Then when we come together there,
There'll be slight commotion.
For here conventional restraints
Which never must be sighted
Like Barnum's "happy family"
Make US appear united
But when reach that other place
Where candor is en- regle,
If l don't have it out with aunt,
My names not Sally Nagle.

Faster Than a Mile a Minute.

ljsrestownCN. - Democrat.1
Every one acquainted with the Dun
kirk, Warren and Pittsburg Railroad
knows how rapid is the descent from
LaOna into FTedonia. Last Saturday
evening, about eleven O'Clock, an acci-
dent happened Mt that place. The night
was intensely cold, and when the regular
freight train pulled out Of Cassadaga all
the brakemen but one were in the ca
boose, warming up, preparatory 70
standing guard over the long train Of
twenty-nine cars when the heavy grade
should be reached. Just after leaving
the station the train broke in two, the
last five cars being left behind, the
others, with only one brakeman, going
on, unaware Of the accident. The top
of the hill WAS reached and the descent
begun. The engineer, finding himself
impelled along at n terrible rate, re-
versed his engine, though he says he ex-
pected 10 zee the cylinder-heads blown
out and his locomotive a wreck, and
whistled for brakes. The cars were
covered with ice and snow and the sOli-
tary brakeman took his life in his hand
when, in the darkness, and with the
train laundering along at the rate Of
about mile a minute down a grade
that increased the speed every second
nc sprang from one car 20 another and
ret every brake on the whole twenty
three cars. The run from the top Of the
hill 10 FrcdOnia was made in an ia.
credibly short space Of time, and 10 the
bravery Of the brakeman, tho quick dis
cevery Of the impending danger by the
engineer, and the good work of the
locomotive and every brake, is due the
fact that the train was kept from =
plunge into the Dunkirk Depot and
total annihilatiOn.

The First Tramns.

Tramps are traced back by an English

ter which England was full Of wandering
men who had no occupation and could
give no account Of themselves. They
were disbanded retainers Of the great no
bles whom Henry VII forbade to keen
Their mOnstrOus rctinues They were
broken men who no longer dared to wear
the " livery" Of some great man and tho
badges which bad once won for them inn
Punity and consideration. The feudaI
strife was over, their arms and swords
we're no longer needed IN fight for one
or the other Rose, and beyond fighting
they had noprOfe@iOn Others there were
who had been turned out of their farms.
when some rich landlord made " inclo,
sures, and threw arabic land into pas
lures. The feeble DogDerrics and Vergeg
OF the time could not deal with these
