POETRY.
An Explanation.
BY s. j. T..

Which wish to explain,
though my voice il is hoaIse,
That such tricks as are vain
do never indorse.-
That is. L should say,-hard-ly ever
And not as matter Of course.
Colonel was his name,
And shall not deny
In regard 10 the same,
That be was my ally
For be lived a long time with bis uncle,
Which his uncle, IL happened wasI.
Twas November the third
The political skies
With storm clouds were stirred
And we're ''Hayesy'' likewise,
But played the role OF Reformer,
And tried to be prudent and wise.
Which we had a big game
Hayes and took hand;
Twas election the same
Had long time been planned,
And each one appealed to the people
In the way that you all understand.
But the South was bulldozed
In way that grieve;-
Though il might be supposed
That laughed in my sleeve,
As from shet.guns and intimi iation
Much benefit did receive.
But the tricks that were played
By that returning beard,
And the turns that they made
We're by me quite abhorred, =
For they turned over all our arrangement,
And all our proceedings ignored.
Which we'd thought that the South
Would be ''solid" for me,
And were down in the mouth
when we heard frcm s. c.,
And Florida and Louisiana,
Which the same had been all fixed for me.
When looked at the vote
called Colonel p,
And with dry, husky throat,
He said: "Csn this be?
We are ruined by Fraud and Corruption,"
Then he went for the vote OF S. G.
In the scene that ensued
Ali part ignore;
But my nephew-imbued
With ideas deplore-
Made bargain to buy up electors
Which the same would my fortunes restore.
Their proceedings were "wrong,'
And quite foolish" their acts;
As IN coming it strong
They uncovered their tracks,
And the key to the cipher dispatches
Exposed to the public the facts.
That they tried to buy votes
There's no manner Of doubt,
But for lack of bank notes
They didn't make out:
And as their attempt was failure,
What ia there to worry about?l
Bat with to remark,
If you do not object,
That always keep dark
When there's anything wrecked;
And about all ''inchoate transactions"
never can well recollect.

To Preserve Grapes.

The French preserve grapes the
year round by coating them with
lime. The punches are picked just
before they are thoroughly ripe, and
dipped in lime water of the consisten-
cy Of cream. They are then hung up
to remain. The line coating keeps
ont air, and checks any tendency to
decay. When wanted for the table,
dip the clusters into warm water to
remove the lime.
