cross Stone River, which at the time
was much swollen, and the weather
very cold. The river was so deep as
to swim our horses, and the place OF

LINES ON DORA.
BY WILHEMEIE.

Where the birds twitter carols in the
summer,
And the brook gambols softly below;
Where the grass carpets earth all so lovely,
Where the beautiful :unbeams go,
! It's there stands the hill to me dear.
- Der which twines tho sweet multiiora ;
For there mid nAught ever to fear,
Is the home of my darling, sweet Dora.
Can the mind ever picture so clearly,
How bright, how beautiful is she?
No; the poet can only gain nearly
The thought her loved graces may see.
Could you gaze on her bright golden
tresses,
All ca eles.ly sunshine, bedeck'd,
You dsigh for the loving earesses,
They play round her snowy white neck.
Could you see her bright heaven blue eye,
Her white cheek all tinted with pink,
All, then sure in earnest you'd sigh
For the kisses I'll Gull by the link.
And those beautiful white teeth pearl,
Hidden back hind two corol lips,
Are sure enough tiny aghite a0sdges,"
And exactly transparent at the edges"
And her form ?-too angelic for this earth,
Her soul is fit only for Heaven,
And heart too pure for the dearth
OF this cold, cruel world made in seven.
All this have plainly related
All this all who see her will know,
That the type Of truth have stated,
Is that Of my sweet Dora Lowe.
And some day hope shall fold her,
Close unto my warm beating breast,
To call her my own dearest Dora,
Knowing that with her love l am blest.
And then in that bright world above~us
Let ME live with my darling forever,
While Christ and the angels live near US,
There, there we are never to sever.

Mr.. EDITOR: The public journals
in reporting q bill which | introduced
in the H ,use of Representatives a few

to what the bill purports TO do. Many
are under the impression that I have
introduced bill 10 repeal section 1853
of the Code requiring parents and
guardians to give notice to liquor
dealers not to sell spirituous or viheous
liquors to minors. This impression is
wrong. The bill introduced seeks to
repeal that portion Of said section re
curing notice. Should the bill be-
come a Law, liquor dealers will be
guilty of misdemeanor, if they sell
TO minors, whether notice has been
given or not.

A Sure Sign Of IdiOcy.

There are some things from which
newspaper offices are exempt. In
accordance with the Emersonian law
of compensation, the newspaper man
is free from some of the Ills which
befall men in callings that bring their
recompense on earth. The newspa-
per man always feels sense Of selfish
satisfaction when be reads of a
burglary. No burglar ever enters a
newspaper office. There is only one
case on record of newspaper office
having been burglarized. The burg
lar was caught, but had no difficulty
in getting free on the ground OF
idiocy. He established his ldio"y by
proving that he was guilty of the
offense charged against him. That
was sufficient. He was committed to
an asylum, where he soon recovered
the use of his faculties.-Tybo Sun.

HydrOphObia From a Rat Bite,

About a week ago the wife OF
Horace Jones, wealthy farmer,
living twenty miles south of here,
went out to place pan of food in
the chicken coop. AS she placed
the pan in the coop an immense
rat seized her finger, biting through
it and holding on with a death
grip. Before she could release her
hand she had to choke the rat to
death. The wound healed in few
days, apparently, but yesterday
Mrs. Jones was seized with symp-
toms of hydrophobia, going into
commissions and suffering intense
agony. There are but little hopes
entertained of her recovery. The
case is creating some excitement in
medical circles and it is the second
case of the kind within The past
month that has happened in the
county.--Greensburg Qnd.) Dis

a REMARKABLE APPEAL for
mercy is now before the Governor of
Texss. About year ago a man in
Matagorda missed sum Of money
which had been in the house, and
concluded that it had been stolen by
unknown thieves. The incident had
almost been forgotten when he was
surprised one day by visit from a
girl employed in his family, who
confessed that she was the thief. re-
stored the greater part of the miss
ing money, and threw herself upon
the mercy Of the State. In due
course OF time true bill was found
against her by the grand jury, and
the trial, which occurred recently,
resulted in her conviction and SEN
tence to two years in the penitentlary.
Sentence had hardly been pronounced,
however, before u memorial was
drawn up petitioning the Governor
for clemency, which was promptly
signed by the Judge, the Distric,
and County Attorneys, all the mem.

A FIENDISH PLOT.
An Attempt to Blow Up Steam.
boat on the Hudson River.

One of the most fiendish plots on
record was attempted ON Hudson
river steamboat Friday night, though
happily it failed of its purpose. AS
the steamer Drew, Of the Peoples
Line, was on her way from New
York to Albany, an explosion oc-
Cured about midnight, which shook
the vessel and threw the six or seven
hundred passengers, who had nearly
all retired. into wild confusion. The
explosion occurred in stateroom,
and started fire, which, however,
was put out before it had done much
damage by coolheaded passenger.
Investigation disclosed the top of
powder canister among the debris.
A hole had been made through the
top of the screw in the can, through
which it is filled and through which
the powder is poured out. This sug-
gested the idea that slow match
had been inserted in this hole, nicely
calculated to burn until midnight,
when the passengers would be in bed
and asleep. The explosion, it was
calculated, would produce panic
and an alarm Of fire, the passengers
would rush from their rooms, leaving
the doors open, and the thieves-for
it is believed there was regularly
organized gang on the boat--would
then slip into the rooms and steal the
valuables and in the confusion escape
undetected. A further search brought
to light wooden box, in which there
was coil Of fuse Of about fifty
feet, which had never been cut.
There was also III the large box
paper collar box, and in this was
short piece of fuse from which it was
plain piece had been recently cut,
and in the bottom of this box was
hole just large enough to pass a
fuse through. A reference to the
passenger list showed that the state
room had been engaged by telegraph
in New York, by person signing
the name of Campbell to the dis
patch, and waiter said that about
four O'clock in the afternoon, while
the boat lay at its pier in New York,
a man came on board with wooden
box about two feet square, which he
requested the waiter to put in his
stateroom. The waiter soon spotted
the man in the crowd, and he was
arrested at Albany, where he gave
his name as Henry Evans, and was
committed for examination on Tues
day. Two other men beside the
waiter sworc positively that they
saw the prisoner and two or three
other men come on board with box
similar 20 the one found in the state
room, and there seems to be a very
strong case against him.
