THE NM AND THE PICNIC.
BY II. BuRpErrg.

Under the shell-hark hickory tree
The picnic man he stands;
4 woiul looking man IS he,
With bruised and grimy hands;
And the soil that sticks 10 his trousers hne 9
Is the soil Of several lands.
His hair is mnssed, his hat Is torn.
His clothes are like the ground;
He wishes he had ne er been born.
Or being born, meier been found
lie glares and scowls in wratalal scorn
As oft he looks around.
AT early mo II in suit OF white
he sought the picnic parS;
His face was clean, his heart was light
His loud song Knocked the lSrk,
But now, although the daS Is nrisnt
His world, alas, is dark.
In JOYOUS mood, at carly morn,
He sat upon the stump,
But soon, as though upon thorn
he sat, with mighty jump
He leaped aloft, and all furlorn
In haste he did ernnip.
For 10. in hordes the big black ants,
With nippers long and slim,
Went swiftly crawling up his Pants,
And made it warm Tor him:
And through the woods they make MIN
dance,
With gasp, and gloan, and vim.
And when the rustic feast is spread
And she is sitting by,
Ills wildwood garland on her head,
The love-light in her eye.
He-woe, oh woe! would he We're dead,
Sits in the custard pie.
and they send him up the tree
TO fix the picnic swing,
And up the shell-bar scraggy side.
They laugh to see him cling;
They cannot hear the words he cried,
dad fetehi dos gone. dad hing3
And now he wishes he were down,
And yet he cannot see,
just how the giggte stare, and froMn
Escaped by him may be;
He knows he cannot scramble down
With his back against the tree.
Sobhing, and sailing, and wailing,
Homeward alone he goes;
Clay, pie. and grass stains on his pants,
More and more plainly shows;
And he avows that TO any more ptenieS,
He never Will 60, he knows.
But the morrow comes aud its rising sun,
Brings balm to his tattered breeks,
lie thinks, after all. he had lots of ian
And hopefully, gaily he speaks.
And he goes 10 plcnlcs, one by one,
Nine times in the next 1--WE weeks.

THOMAS MOORE
BY R. H. sroDDARD.


A lord of lyric song was born go.
A hundred years ago to day: 4le a.s
Loved of that race that long has worn
The shamrock for the bay!
He sung of wine, and sung of lowers,
OF woman's smile, and wOmsn's tear
Light songs, that suit our lighter hours,
But oh, how bright and dear!
Who will may build the epic verse,
And, Atlas-hke, its weight sustain;
Or solemn tragedies rehearse
In high, heroic strain.
So be it. But when all is done,
The heart demands for happy days
The lyrics of Anacreon,
And Sappho's tender lays.
Soft souls with these are satisfied;
He loved them, but exacted more
For his the lash that Horace piled,
The sword Harmodius worei
Where art thou, Brian, and thy knights,
So dreaded by the flying Dane?
And thou, Con, of the Hundred Fights?
Your spirits are not slain!
Strike for us, as We did of yore,
Be with us-we shall conquer still,
Though Irish kings are crowned no more
On Tara's holy hill!
Perhaps he was not hero born,
Like those he Sung-Heaven only knows
He had the rose without the thorn,
But he deserved the rose.
For underneath its odorous light
bis heart was warm, his soul was strong
He kept his love of country bright,
And sung her sweetest song!
Therefore her sons have gathered here
To honor him, as few before,
And blaZon on his hundredth year
The fame of Thomas Moore!
-Scribner for July

How to Shoot an Alligator.

FLORIDA Correspondence Utica Observer
The methods by which alligators are cap
tured are varied, but the most novel and GER
tain recipe is the following, which | will give
for the benefit of those who contemplate en-
gaging in the business: To begin with, you
take about Is pounds of yellow dog. And
now some over-particular persons may want
to know what the color of the dog has to do
with it, which is easily explained. There is
M re ''yelp" in an ounce of yellow dog than
in ton of dog of any other color. In order
to secure your y. d. you must be very OBJ
serving, and find out at what negro cabin
one can be found. Then, when the occu-
pants of the homestead are away in the field
you must get the Y. {. the best way you can
always taking good care they. d. don't get
you. Put rope around his neck and sbduct
him to some lake where alligators are known
to congregate.
You will, of course, have had the foresight
to provide yourself with rife before this in
teresting state has been reached. You must
then fasten your " d. to a log or sapling some
four or five yards from the waters edge
then make one end of a strong cord fast to
the dogs tail and carry the other with you to
some convenient log little distant behind
winch you can ambush yourself. Your novel
machine is then in working order, and
proper manipulation is all that is necessary
to the success OF the scheme. Now you will
give your end of the string several vigorous
jerks, until you hear series of agonizing
yelps at the other end. Then you can ap-
preciate the dogs color.
When you have got your dog well warmed
up to the work, just glance out on the water;
If there are any gators there you will see
them making rapidly in bee line for the
bait. 1t is a sure thing; never knew it to
fail They will emerge from the water and
make slowly and surely for that y. d. with
wide-open jaws. Then Is the time for you
to take an active part in the programme. If
not too nervous about that time. you can
easily shoot the foremost reptile, and the
others will take fright and founder back into
the water. The first time / tried this ad-
mirable plan it did net end quite 30

Printing Tickets.

We find we were in error in stating
last week that justices of the peace and
constables are to be voted for at the
election on separate tickets to be de-
posted in separate boxes as provided
by Section of Act No. 81, approved
10th Of April, 1877. BY Sec. % of Act
No. IS, approved 18th April, 1877, the
names of all persons voted for shall be
written or printed on one ticket on
which the names of the persons voted
for and the office for which they are
voted, shall be accurately specified, and
the ticket shall have printed or written
on the back the Ward in which it is
voted.
The error we fell into is excusable,
we think, when it is considered that
the General Assembly on one day
passed an Act requiring that tickets for
Ward officers should be separate and
separate returns made, and on the very
next day repealed, in effect, this provi.
sion. The legislature appears not to
have known its mind on the 10th but
did on the 18th Of April.

A difficult surgical operation was
performed a few days ago on Mr.. John
Kline, of this city, by DR.. Richardson
aided by Drs. Murphy, Calderwood
and Sho1ars. Kline went to bed some
five weeks ago suffering from pain in
the abdomen. DR.. Richardson, after
careful examination, decided that his
patient was suffering from abscess of
the liver. An incision of the abdomen
was determined upon finally, and this
was successfully accomplished by DR..
Richardson a few days ago, and the
abscess reached. More than a half
gallon of pus came from the abscess.
The patient felt instantaneous relief,
and is now free from pain.

content. At some future day-not far

We learn with regret that a promis-

Union, was fatally injured while play
ing around a cotton press on the 18th,
and from the injury died in less than
two hours. He was holding on TO the
strap iron of the press when his head
was caught between that and a girder
and was crushed. Capt. Sellers and the
afflicted mother have our tenderest
sympathies.
