And what hast thou found mid the roses at rest,
Why beat In that trcmulous way,
Like frightened wild birds ina human hand pressed
My heart, II ia only the loss of May
But no, there something far sweeter at rest
Than ever saw by the light of the day.
IT'S Cupid asleep mid the roses at dark,
We shall hide him away on some lone flowing lie
Where mnrmuring waters his soul shall begnilc,
AZ he drcamily lies in a rushwovcn bark.
Then bore him away to the rushwoycn boat,
Away like al arrow sped;
The wind made his ringlets in golden light float,
Upon my bosom | pllowcd his head;
And ] laid him away in the strange cradle bed,
While the pressure ofrose on his cheek nestled red.
His warm lips we're sweet, but left them unkissed,
And from the young sleeper turned soft as fawn
To linger near till the coming of dawn,
Lest Cupid should vanish away in the mist.
All night did tendcrly watch DER my pet
Nor of WEAKNESS did complain,
But morning looked down on cheek of tear-wet,
Flushed red as u rose meath the light falling rain.
And now do earnestly strive to forget
The night that guarded my treasure in vain
For Cupid is rowing 'er hill and Ger dale,
'Mong islands where float the rich fragrance of
spice,
Where bright birds have wandered from out
Paradise,
And the roses he pressed have grown languid and
pale

Judge Elliott, and without a word of warn

was that one of the Judges decisions was
obnoxious to him. Buford who is broth

other charge in the gun was for Judge
Pryor, OF the same bench and that, but for
the presence of children, he would have

MANY Of the outside insurance companies
operating in Illinois, are organized under
charters that forbid the loaning Of their
surplus cash anywhere outside of the lin
its Of the home state, These companies
draw hundreds of thousands of dollars
from Illinois, not one dollar Of which can
ever return in the shape OF loans to our
people. 1t goes every dollar of it, to the
enrichment of other people. A sum, five
times greater than our State taxes, is thus
drawn from our people every year to add

THE Young Mems Christian Association,
Of Bangor, Name, has resolved that Sena-
tor Blaine is, by his opposition 20 further
Chinese immigration, doing violence TO the
essence and spirit of Christianity, and de-
serves the reprobation Of good men, etc
The Young Mems Christian Association, Of
San Francisco, acting under different
kind of inspiration, has thanked Mr.. Blaine
for his labors to restrict Chinese immigra-
ton, as ITS continuance would serve to de-
base and demoralizc the white laboring
classes Of the Pacific coast, and that, too,
without furnishing any compensation in the
habits, practices and morals OF the Chinese
themselves. Looking at the matter from Il
Christians stand point, the Senator mani.
testify gets mixed. From the one. side comes
the cry Of "Don't;' but from the other side
comes the cry of "Do." And thus it goes
