Bf FATHER RYAN.
All! DAYS SO dark with Deaths Eclipse
Woe are. we! woe are we!
And the Nights are Ages long, =.
From breaking hearts, through pail
lips,
Oh! my God! woe are we!
Trembleth the mourners' s6iig-
A bright is falling on the fair
And hope is dying in despair
Anu terror Walketh everywhere.
All the hours are fun OF Tears
Oh, my God! woe are we!
Grief keeps watch in brightest eyes-
| Every heart is strung with fears;
Woe are we! woe are we!
All the light hath left the skies,
And the living awe struck words
See above them only clouds
And around them only shroudS.
All the terrible Farewellsi
Woe are they! woe are they!
When last words sink into means
While lies trembling vesper bells;
Oh, my God woe are we!
Ring the awful undertohes!
Not, a sun in any day.
In the night time not ray
And the dying pass away!
Dark so dark above-below-
Oh, my God! woe are eE:
Cowereth every human life
" lid the wailing-to and fro
Woe are all +. woe are we!
Death is victor in. the strife
In the hut aid In the hall
He is writing on the wall
DoOms for many -tears for all.
Thro' the cities burn breath,
Woe are they woe are wei
Hot with dread and deadly wrath,
Life and love lock arms in death;
Woe are they! woe are all.
Victims strew the Spectre's path;
Shy-6yefl Gliiluteii s5ftlS creep
Where their mothers wall ;ind Weep-
III the grave their fathers sleep.
Mothers ~aft ttielf players on high-
Oh, my God! woe are we!

And their Affairs ask the sky
Oh. my Christ! woe are we!

Woe are you. Woe are you.

They @lll never smile again
Every tie is cut in twain,
All the strength of love is vain.

Woe are we. woe are we.
They but break upon the shore
Winding between Here and Home
Woe are we, woe are we,
Wailing MISUNDERSTANDING

And the memory of ii moan.
Pray? yes, pray; for God Is sweet
Oh, my God, woe are we;

Woe. are we; woe are we.

Migration of Insects.

Prof. Riley regards the migration of
insects as due to their multiplying more
rapidly than their means of support.
The migrations of rats are attributed to
the same cause, and similar observations
have been made as to other animals.
Many insects that are not normally of
migratory t. tendency exhibit it when
pressed by dearth of food. In these
cases they collect together and migrate
in large bodies. Referring to instances
of the kind, Prof. Riley, at recent
meeting of the St. Louis Academy of
Sciences, stated that vast flights of but
terfies took place at times from the
equatorial regions Of South America.
Migrating swarms have been observed at
sea; and also in the southwestern parts
of the United States, where the fact is
frequently recorded in local newspapers,
especially in September and October,
and occasionally in the spring months.
In every instance where observations
have been made, this migrating butterfly
has been found to be the archippus.

An Ingenious Rat.Trap.

Mr.. w. Hall, living near Earlville, n.
Y, was last winter very badly troubled
with rats. They got into his hog-house,
and would eat up and carry off about
everything he could put init, even gnaw-
ing the young pigs ears so that they
would be dripping with blood in the
morning. He set q bushel basket. filled
with ears of corn, in the pen; the next
morning it was empty. The next night
he carried in basket of corn and set it
in a barrel; it likewise disappeared. The
following evening he put the corn into
the barrel and set the basket into the
top, itiust fitting and sinking down to the
rim. The next morning he found hole
gnawed through the bottom of the bas-
ket, and three or four rats in the barrel
with the corn. The hole afforded them
ingress, but they could not jump up and
get out through it; they only beat their
heads against the bottom of the basket,
and tired themselves out. This was a
novel trap, and, since the rats had made
it for themselves, Mr.. Hall thought he
would try it's efficiency. So, dispatching
the rats, he left the barrel, with the
basket IN the top, every night, until he
caught sixty rats, when there was gen.
eral stampede, and he has since been
comparatively free. So fierce were the
rats for corn that they would mount the
barrel and enter the basket, and des-
cend through the hole in the bottom,
whether there was any corn in the barrel
or not. They recognised the hole as one
of their own make and went through it
fearlessly; and SO firmly had the idea of
corn in the barrel taken possession of the
public mind of the rats that some of
their number visited it every night and
entered the fatal trap of their own MAX
ing. One morning eleven were found
in the barrel and disposed of. Every one
can have such trap as this if he can
get the rats to gnaw hole in the bot
tom of his basket. Utica Re21nbZic0,a.

The Dead klng OF Italy Scenes in
Rome.

y A telegram from Rome to the New
York Herald says: King Victor Emn1an-
uelis dead. The sadintelligence has filed
Rome with CONSERVATION. Immense
crowds had thronged the plaza before
the palace from an early hour this morn
ing, eagerly seeking news Of the Kings
condition, and when the announcement
was made that he was no more the wild
est ordinations of grief burst forth
from the dense concourse Of people.
Strong men burst into tears, women
tainted, and despair was depicted on
every countenance. The particulars
of his death and last hours were eager
" asked for, and the news spread through
the city with incredible rapidity. Al
most instantly all shops and places of
business were closed, and Rome went in
to deep mourning. The foreign Ambas-
sailors Immediately went 10 the palace
to consult on the situation and exchange
views in relation to the probable effect
on the foreign relations of Italy. They
offered their coincidence to the bereaved
royal family, and testified their respect
for the dead King in the most marked
manner. 4
The Pope evinced deep feeling when
he received the news. During the day
he had frequently sent to inquire as to
the Kings condition, and offered the
services of his own doctor to assist the
Kings physician. He also conferred
the blessing IN art5culo maortis. It is
stated that King Victor Emmanuel con-
fessed to Mgr. f. Marinetti, Sacristan
Of the apostolic palaces, who was sent
to him by the Pope. He was also visit
ed by Mgr Cenni, the Pope's domestic
prelate. The Austrian Ambassador was
