The Poor Fiddler's Ode
TO HIS OLD FIDDLE.
Torn,
Worn,
oppress,d, ! mourn;
Sad,
Three-Quarters mad;
Nancy gone,
Credit none;
Duns at door,
Half score;
Wife in lain,
Twins lgain;
Others ailing,
Nurse a railing,
Billy hopping,
Also poor Joe,
With festered toe.
Come then, my fiddle.
Come, my olden, time-worn friend,
With joyous, swelling, brilliant sounds,
Some sweet. though transient. solace lend.
Thy polished neck clasp in close embrace,
While ecstacy Of joy illumes my face.
When over thy strings I draw my bow
My dropping spirits heayenward rise;
A lively strain I touch, and lol
I seem to mount above the skies.
There on Fancy's wing soar,
Regardless of all the duns at door;
Obvious all /. feel my woes no more
But skip DER the strings,
AS my old fiddle sings.
"Cheerily, merrily go!
Presto, good master,
You very well know
I will find music
If you will find bow,
From to Alt, to G below"
Fa.igued, pause to change the time
For some Addgio, solemn and sublime.
With graceful action moves the sinuous arm;
NV heart, responsive to the soothing charm,
Throbs equally: whilst every healthcorroding care
Lies PROSTATE, vanquished by the soft mefuous air
More plaintive grown; my eyes with tears oerfow
And patience mild soon smoothes my wFinkled brow
..eedy hautboy can sqneek, waiting fute can squa,
The serpent make gruut and the trombone may bay
But my Poll,' my old idde's, the prince OF them all
Could cen Dryden return, thy praise to rehease,
His ode TO Cecilia would seem rugged verse.
Now to thy case, in flannel warm to lie,
Till called to please thy master by.
Apollo.

cloths and napkins with colored borders,
embroidered by hand or with the color
woven into the goods. ..
There is fancy for putting fans of
plated satin (about as deep as the fan
carried in the handy at intervals around
the foot instead of founce. 1t is con-
sidered especially stylish to have the
rich fabric of the overskirt reach from
the belt to the foot, where it is fringed,
and these fans are then inserted, either
in the seams or perhaps in the middle
of the breadths as well.
Fur.lined and fur.trimmed wraps will
be fashionable. Sealskin sacks will
take the lead in fur garments. These
garments are cut longer than formerly
worn, and are trimmed with band OF
black martin, chinchilla, or silver point
ed otter fur. Muffs afe smaller and boas
are worn fiat. OF course, all rich furs
will be worn, but sealskin is the tom fur
for the winter OF 1878-79.

THE WAR BETWEEN CHILL AND
PERU.
A Peruvian Minister Explains.

a FcruVian Minister Explains.
New York, July 29-Senor De Law
allie, Peruvian minister to Brazil, now
here en- QUITE to Rio Janeiro, recites the
causes of the present war briefly, as
follows: Chilli was always a grain pro-
ducing country, and supplied Peru
with wheat. While these republics
were under the dominion Of Spain, the
deficit in the Chilian budget was made
up by Peru. After independence,
when the mines in California and Aus
tralia began to be developed, Chill
largely supplied these places with grain.
The discovery of silver and copper
mines in Chilli added largely to her re-
sources. But with the development of
California and Australia. which in
turn became also grain producing coun-
tries, this source of revenue for Chilli
was stopped. The fall in the price of
copper and silver further depressed the
financial affairs of the country, and it
seized upon portion Of the Bolivian
territory. De Lavalle was sent as min
isterto Chilli to effect amicable settle
ment and reconciliation. The Chilians,
obstinate and hostile, refused to submit
the arbitration of the question to the
United States, and declared war.
Chilli cannot possibly succeed. They
nave only 1000 soldiers, while the Per-

Gen. Sturgis, the new commander of
Fort Meade, is in Deadwood, the guest
of w. w. Nixon. Those of our citi-
zens who yesterday met the general for
the first time, and with whom we spoke
regarding him, were all of the opinion
that he was an old man. This impress
sion was evidently created by his cele-
brated letter from st. Louis, on the
Custer massacre, in which he lost son.
In that letter he censured Gen. Custer
for the loss of the flower of his regi-
ment, and his own son, to whom he
alluded, we believe, as ''the hope of the
old man." He is long ways of having
the appearance of an old man. On the
contrary he is a well preserved, active,
and apparently middle aged man,
round and plump as one could wish to
be, with but very light sprinkling of
the ''silver threads among the gold. !"
He was accompanied by his daughter,
Miss Mamie.-B. H. Times.

so Carroll, who was standing at the
counter near Churchill, suddenly put
his hand in his pocket and exclaimed,
81 am robbed, eight hundred pounds in
Bank of England notes, and one hun
dred dollars of American money has
been stolen" He charged Churchill
with the robbery, and despite the pro-
testations, caused his arrest. At the
court Carroll suddenly remembered that
he wore a money belt, and there safely
hid away he found the money. Mr..
Churchill was almost overcome with
shame and grief at being forced through
the streets as a prisoner. Carroll, with
sheepish look, said in low tone that
he had unjustly accused the merchant.
