BOyhOOd.
BY CHARLES HAMMOND.

How oft amid the sordid strife
Of worldly wisdom have turned
To memory's scenes of early life,
And o'er my joyous b,,yhood mourned;
How oft have wish'd mid care and pain
To be that huOyant boy again
To sleep beneath the slanting roof
And hear the pattering raindrops fall,
Or listen to the lively proof
Of vagrants round my airy hall;
Yet rise at morn with wonted glee
To wade the brook or climb the tree.
To Join the sturdy reapers train,
What time the lark her matin strings
When mounting with impassiond strain,
She bathes in light her glittering wings,
And, poised in air, is scarcely seen,
So high amid the dazzling sheen.
Twas mine to trap beside the stream,
Or angle meath the alder's shade,
To tend the plow, or drive the team,
Or seek the herd in distant glade.
Where oft from clustering thic2ets shrin
Rang out the notes of the whippoOrwin.
Those trembling notes, so long, so wild,
Were music to my boyish ear;
Thought backward ties-and as child
Zen now me thinks the sound hear.
While fancy spreads before my eye
The dewy glade and moonlt sky.
The Glowing herd" now vending slow
Along the wood their homeward way;
The winding streams dark CLASSY flow,
The llied vale, the woodland gay,
Still float in visions bland and bright,
As on that balmy summers night.
Then standing on the distant hill,
With boyborn fancies wand'ring free,
l saw no specter'd form of i'll
Rise in the bright futurity:
But all, instead, was joyOur, clear,
Buoyant with hope, untouched with fear
o, these were boyhOod's cloudless hours,
And sweet on wings unsullied flow,
But pride soon dream'd of lOftfer bowers,
And wealth her golden luster threw
Ger tempting scenes, as false as fair,
And babe my spirit seek her there
And have sought htr nor in vain,
might have piled her treasures high,
| But that l scorned her sordid reign
And turned me from her soulless eye,
| could not delve her dirty mine,
would not worship at her shrine.
would not Stoop to fatter power,
For any vile or selfish end;
l would not change with every hour
My faith, my feelings, or my friend,
And least of all would intrust
My hopes to the accurseG dust.
The God that reared the woodland heigh
And spread the flow'ry valleys wide,
And walked within my mind delights
That spurn the lures of human pride,
And stern forbade in accents known,
To worship aught beneath His throne.

SENATOR CHAHDLER's reelection was Sc
nearly unanimous that even his btterest crit
its have refrained fiom charging that it was
not the Spontaneous wish of the people OF
Michigan. As The Detroit Post and Tribune
says, in giving the meaning Of it, the election
was not the result of intrigue, but the re.
sponse of the Republican members of the
Legislature to the demand of their constitu-
ents. The party press of the State was al
most unanimous for him. The Republican
ism which he represented wheD in the Senate
before, is the very kind the party in Michigan
is desirous of bringing 10 the front again now,
namely, the Republicanism which fights Dem
ocratic designs upon the Constitution and
upon the Treasury without finching and
without promise.

IT turns out that Genersl Grants Des
Moines speech in favor of the secularization
of the common schools and the completest
severance of Church and State, was the cause
Of the refusal Of the city of Cork to extend to
him the usual courtesies and hospitalities.
The action of that city is approved by Owen
Lewis, Member of Parliament, as secplariza-
tion is at war with the Catholic policy, which
aims at division of the school fund and de
mands it as right. 1t is not likely all Cath
olics will agree with Mr.. Lewis, but it is well
to have it understood on what grounds the
city of Cork took its action against the tx

THE Adjutant General of the State, Gen.
Nelly, is being ''hauled over the Goals" by the
Legislature, in connection with certain tran
sactions about the purchase of tents for the
National Guard. 1t appears that no appro-
priatios for this purpose was made by the
General Assembly at its late session and that
in incurring debt for the same, he exceeded
his authority in the matter. If the statements
of the Governor and Attorney General, are
true, and we have every reason to believe
they are, Gen. Nelly has shown himself to be
unfit for his position, and should be removed
without hesitation or delay. On the other
hand, it can be shown that the parties who
furnished tents, did SO in good faith, and as
the State has already secured possession of
the property, and used it, they should be paid
fair price for tho same. The contract price
was too high, but an honest adjustment should
be made. Innocent parties should not suffer
because Gen. Nelly violated the law.-[Co-
lumbus Dispatch.

HoADLEY has had fresh eruption. Since
his exhaustive opinion on Cronin's Electoral
College of One be has remained in comatose
state, trying to recover his energies, and he
has been successful. He startled the goodly
City Of Cincinnati with four or five columns
OF recollections of the electoral controversy,
on Saturday evening, and ended up with a
war-whoop for Tilden and Hendricks again in
1880. He promises to jump to the support of
''that old man, abused, lied about, prosecuted,
vilifed and sued" If Tilden is wise he'll give
him half of that fresh barrel if he'll premise

Truthful Exchange

A certain man got mad at the editor
and stopped his paper. The next week
he sold all his corn at four cents below
the market price;then his property was
sold for taxes because he only heard of
the convention three days after it had
adjourned; he lost ten dollars betting
on MolIie Mccarthy two days after
Ten Brock had won the race; he was
afterward arrested and fine d eight dol
lars for hunting on Sunday; and he
paid $500 for lot of forged notes that
had been advertised two weeks, and
the public cautioned not to negotiate
them. He then paid big Irishman,
with leg like derrick, to kick him
all the way to a newspaper Office, when
he paid four years subscription in nd
vance, and made the editor sign and
swear to an agreement to knock him
down and rob him il he ever ordered
his paper stopped again.

A MAN died near Baltimore recently,
who wished no funeral hUncrS Should
be paid him, and in his will made a
special request of that nature. He
wished plain shroud; no flowers; "no
mock display" no services in church
no mark where he was buried unless
some child or children should be
moved to place one there; no mourning
garments for his family, as he was
persuaded this has become solemn
mockery," and no eulogies over his
remains. "If there Was one trait OF
my character" he said, worthy of i'm
itation, then initiate it, and with the
last look bury all my imperfections
and infirmities with my remains" F"
These requests he desired to have read
at his funeral. 1t has said that the
leading traits OF the mans character
were honesty and truthfulBess.

Of great injury to the intestinal canal, which
it both inlames and weakens, thus uniting
it for the performance Of its proper func-

'Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a tonic aperient
which produces effects prompt,, indeed, but
never violent and convulsing. The purity
of its botanic Ingredient, its unobjectionable

THE UsEOF THE LEMON.

There three ways ofmaking lemonade
To squeeze the juice into cold water
this IS the shortest way; or to cut into
slices and let 1t soakin cold water; or to
cut 1t in slices and then boil 1t. Lemon
ade is one Of the purest and safest drinks
for person whether In health or not. 1t
Is suitable to all stomach diseases, is ex-
cellent in sickness. The pips, crushed,
may also be mixed wirh sugar water,
and used as drink. We advise every
one to rub the gums daily with lemon
juice to keep them in health. The hands
and nails are also kept white, soft and
supple by the daily use Of lemon instead
of soap. 1t also prevents chilblains
Lemon is used in intermittent fevers
mixed with strong, hot black coffee
without sugar. Neuralgia may be cured
by rubbing the part affected with cuI
lemon: It is valuable also to cure warts
and to destroy dardruff on the head b.
rubbing the roots Of the hair with it.
