A Yellow Fever Pen Picture.

The following communication, adj.
dressed to the chairman of the New York
Chamber of Commerce by the president
of the Howard Association and the act /.
ing mayor OF Vicksburg, Miss, is vivid
pen picture of the terrors of yellow
fever, as experienced in that city "Our
entire force, as well as the physicians.
nurses and we'll nurses, are solely occu%
pied in this fearful struggle with death
Doctors do not pause for necessary
sleep, and continue their endless rounds
even when the dread destroyer is in their
own households, and we therefore fail e.
have reports from them of the number Of
cases under treatment. They have tried
TO report in person, but we have always
to request their immediate departure tfA
see other and later cases. Most of ua
on duty at our rooms and elsewhere have
fever in our families, but we are tryiD &
to supply the calls for doctors, nurses
medicines and food, and to do so under
such rules and regulations as will pro.
teot us from impostors and enable us 10
meet the wants of all the needy.
"There is, however, but little danger
of charity going astray or being wronged
when the entire city and its suburbs is
vast hospital, with every chamber occu
pied and no outlet save to the grave.
The struggle is now so desperate that
we can scarcely realize other wants than
the immediate necessities of the sick,
dying and dead, and this takes over 50. Z
600 daily of our funds and fully as much
from outside organizations. But as the
fever lessons we then shall have distress
in another form. The children will beg
for bread. Deaths horrors are reduced
for want of subjects. Nature will assist
itself. and the survivors of the wreek
will be helpless mariners ahoat, without
rudder, sail or motive power.
"The fever may subside by the mia.
die of October, but no work or tratic o.
commerce of any kind will come to ua
until the middle of November gives
surances of no contagion. We are help
less to set the wheels of our life in mo-
ton sooner. and must need the good
will and kindly offices of those more
happily situated. Till then, If thete
was not another case of fever 10 ocon
we should still be isolated and strlcke
for no one would come to us nor de
us 10 come 10 them"

Historic POstOfices,

Two United States postofices have
been established at placas OF historic
note in Virginia. While there are
twenty. three Mount Vernons in The
United States that are postofices, the
one from which the name sprung has
been without postal facilities. The sub.
ject was brought to the attention of Post
master-General Key few weeks ago,
and it being understood that the lady
regents desired a postoffice there as a
convenience as well as for the business
of the Mount Vernon Association, and of
the neighborbood, arrangements were
made for an Office, which was ordered
established. It lis thought that the post
Office will derive some especial revenue
from visitors who will desire to send a
letter home direct from Mount Vernon.
Another postoffice on the same route
is also established at Gunston, Fairfax
county, former seat of George Mason,
the author of the Bill of Rights of Vir-
ginia. Gunston is now owned by a
company, and a cooperative farm is
established there. 1t was here that
James M. Mason died, several years
ago, we'll known at one period as United
States Senator from Virginia, and after
ward as Confederate Minister TO Eng
land.

In the Laccadavies a species of rats
suddenly appeared, which, living in the
crowns of the palm-trees, nibbled off the
young nuts and threatened to ruin the
colony. The Indian government being
appealed to for aid sent over a stock OF
cats, bat as the cats could get fish to
eat below, they declined to climb ninety
feet up the trees to get rats. Tree
snakes were then tried, but the villagers
were prejudiced against reptiles and
killed them. Then the government sent
out consignment of mongooses, but
the mongooses declined to climb trees af-
ter rats while they could get chickens on
the ground. With cats and mongooses
on the ground refusing to ascend to the
rats, the officials decided that all that
was required was to make the rats de-
scend TO the cats and mongooses, so
they sent the islanders over some owls.
But they had overlooked the popular
prejudice against these birds, and in
committee assembled the people decided
that even rats up in the trees were better
than these "devil- birds" They accept
ed the birds in all apparent gratitude,
but as soon as the coast was clear, the
owls, cats and mongooses were all con-
veyed in procession to a boat and sol
emnly deported to on uninhabited reef.

my LOST POCKET-BOOK.

My name is Edney-Philip Clement
Edney. That was my fathers name be-
re me-. Twenty odd years ago he had
small hut comfortable dry goods busi-
n sss in Utica. But in the panic of '57
he met with severe losses; and he had
hardly weathered the financial storm
when he was taken down with a disease
from which he never recovered.
In his last illness he was deeply con-
cerned for the future of his family.
was the eldest son, and he frequently
expressed the hope to my mother and
to me that in some way we should be
able to find Harringford.
Thomas Harringford was generous
hearted but rather unprincipled young
man who had been in my fathers employ
several years before.
He had got into bad company, and
was guilty of some irregularity, as the
modern genteel phrase is, having helped
himself to my fathers cash to the
amount OF several hundred dollars, be-
fore his dishonesty-I mean his irregular
ity-was discovered. He was penitent,
and confessed everything, but it was
impossible for him to make restitution.
He had been fayorite of both my
father and mother, and they could not
bear to have him sent to prison. So, ON
his promising to reform, lead an honest
life in future, and repay my father
when he was able the sums he had stolen
i mean nlisappropriated-he was let
off.
He went to parts where he was un-
known, and only vague rumors concern
ing him had reached us since. One of
these rumors was that he had been seen
in Buffalo and Detroit, and that he was
doing prosperous business.
On settling up my fathers estate, my
mother found that she and her little
family were left in straitened circum-
stances. Then we remembered what he
had said about Harringford. 1 wrote to
him letters addressed Buffalo and De-
troit, but failed to receive answers.
At last we were so mnch in need that 1
said:
Mother, if You can spare the money
for me to make the journey, 1 believe
can find him, and get at least part
payment of what he owes us.
1t was long time before she would
listen to this proposal. She could i'll
afford the expense. Though we held
Harringford's note to my father, it was
outlawed, and she had not much faith in
my being able TO get any money of him,
even if he could be found in either of
the two cities named.
At last, however, thinking the journey
might do me some good, at any rate, she
consented to it, and in July 1 set out.
went first to Buffalo, where began
with the post-office and directory, but
without being able to find the man was
searching for there, 1 proceeded to De-
troit No luck there either. returned
10 Buffalo, stopping at Cleveland by the
way and finally gave up the search,
concluding that Harringford must have
gone elsewhere, and that the world was
too large a haystack for me to hunt in
for such needle.

The Light Of Autumn DAYS.


What summer songs are sweet and fair,
Aud who shall sing them blythe and giA.
With cadence lexle-soft as air
Add CHEEKY as the summer day.
What poot comes with sandal shoon,
And clear brown eye OF dreamy gaze =
Brown as the wave whose forest gloom
Has drank Che light OF autumn days
The light of autumn days
Deep deep within his quiet heart
He holds the sunshine Of the year,
The music OF the meadow lark
And bells that echo faint and clear
The hare-bell, may be- on the slope,
The bubble that the wave has broke,
Or the soft, sombre tones that fall
In memory of birthday chime
Faded In that far lapse Of time
That comes and goes for all
And thus within his eyes the haze
Deepens Of autumn days
The sky is blue, the sky is fair,
Aud writ with fieecy clouds in air
And bcughs are waving fresh and free,
AS foam-crest on a summer sea
And birds with wings whose flashing light
Makes the worn spirit yearn for fight
Are passing on to some bright zone
We picture in the heart alone;
Add nature chimes in undertono
Its murmurous anthem bright and clear =
Yet he apart
Drinks 10 with subtle sense and heart
The rapture of the year
And with his far-off gaze
Turnsit to autumn days
He garners up the perfect time,
He stores at will OF pain or mirth,
For him nor season comes nor cline
He stands alune Of all the earth:
To him the forest tells its tale,
The brooklet pours its plaintive wall,
The wild pine rocks, the wild winds moan,
To him the torrent speaks alone,
The tempest from its mountain throne,
Tne tumult OF the angry sea.
The m1rmur of the rowing bee,
The pale anemone that blows
In sunshine DER it's native SHOWS
The blue-bell or the meadow-pink,
Or osier by the streamlets brink,
All tell their tales in murmurs free
The secrets OF the land or sea
And in his patient eyes,
Awaiting sorrow and surprise
Gather like falling leaves or sunset rays ;
A dreamy wistful gloom
light too far too soon
The light Of autumn daysl
