The Farmers Wo0ing.

The daisies nodded In the grass, the butter
cups were sleeping,
And Just across the river sang the farmers at
their reaping;
Upon the hills, so blue and far, the maple
leaves were showing.
Their soft white beauties In the breeze that
from the sea was blowing.
Alittle maid came through the land with
song and ripping laughter;
The buttercups made way for her. the daisies
nodded after.
Astrong young farmer saw her pause beside
the parting river;
She drew a lily from its depth with golden
heart a-quiver.
Thou art more fair than lilies are" said he.
with head uplifted.
And threw a poppy as the stream toward the
maiden drifted.
She set the flowers In her hair-the red and
white together;
A cloud grew black before tn sun and rainy
was the weather.
He came across the river then, this farmer,
from his moving;
He minded not the waters depth, he cared
not for its flowing.
70 lover" said he, "if cleaning sun and cloud
less skies o'erlean us, -
The rivers barring width may roll ed,
untried between us;
But when loud thunder nlls the air, and
clouds and:rain come over,
I'd cross the ocean to your side-I am no fair
day loverl"
And SO one moor the village bells rang out
across the river,
Their music set the buttercups and daises all
a-quiver,
While some one drew a lily from the stream
SO biithely flowing.
And plucked a blood-red poppy that amid the
wheat was growing;
The maiden set them in her hair-the red
and white together
With many a smile a tear or two.iand g~lances
at the weather.
They passed beneath the chapers thade-the
farmer and the maiden
Where arches crossed above their heads,
with snowy blossoms laden,
And In that place of holy calm the binding
words were spoken;
He In his heart bore out the truth. she on
her hand the token.
The years went by, and some were bright
and some were clouded over.
But ever stood he at her slde-he was no fair
day lover.

Rare Pet.

Several days ago a lady living on
Brown street heard a bird cry, as if in
pain, in the yard outside the door, and
upon investigation found a young hum
ming-bird in the talons of the family
cat. She promptly rescued the tiny
fellow and found it to be but little
hurt, though enough to warrant her
taking an interest in its conyalescence,
She took it into the house and kept 1t
till the next day, when, on taking it to
the door to let it go, the bird flew up
into a tree and refused to go farther
away, finally returning to her hand.
Charmed by the confidence displayed
by the pretty creature, the lady took it
fully in charge, and since then has fed
and cared for 1t as for any other feath-
cred pet. The bird is Of a beautiful
russell gold in color, seems to know its
benefactress, and has charmingly CO.
quettish ways. 1t permits its mistress
to handle it without exhibiting fear,
and seems to enjoy being stroked and
petted. When it gets hungry it makes
a plaintive call, and is then fed from a
fresh petunia, into whose depths have
hen spsKhkled sugar, moistened with
water, in imitation of the honey that
is tue natural food of the bird in free
dom. The bird enjoys its meals witt
gusto, and calls for about twenty o.
them daily. 1t is very seldom that ont
of these dainty birds is caught, ant
still more rarely is n kept alive, II
say nothing of becoming a pet, as !
the case with the one spoken of.-Cin

Whore the Sun Never Sets.

An unusual scene for Europe-that
OF the u never setting, but shining
through the whole nights to be wit
messed from the summit of Mount Aav-
ak in Finland, near Torneo, at 66onorth-
ern latitude. Every year, on June 90, a
multitude Of people of different nations
visit that mountain to witness the in.
teresting spectacle. According to the
reports of the Finn journals this year
there we're on Mount Aavax about
300 travellers. Three of there were
Englishmen, two Frenchmen, one was
a Russian; there were several Germans,
Danes and Swedes, and the rest were
Firms. The government of Finland is
now erecting on Mount Aavax a hotel
for the accommodation Of travellers.

FASHION NOTES.

Stylish morning dresses are made of
bandanna plaid handkerchiefs.
Fanciful parasols are more fashion
able this season than ever before.

ed on the ends with colored guipure
embroidery.
Very full pleatings and ruchings of

mer costumes,
Among the imported carpets, the
favorite design is the black ground
stewn with daisies.
Plain and sprigged muslin dresses
are garnished with dropping bows of
white satin ribbon.

which was next visited, / spent the evening
very pleasantly. There have been some
changes since my visit two years ago. The
grand mountains looked greener than they
did then, yet they were as beautiful as ever,
and the patter and roar Of the charming
streamlet was quite as soothing to my slum-

society of the present occupants was en-

the Union mills up to its former standard.
He owns several large farms upon which
he produces several thousand bushels OF

siniboin will do good service to the country
in the immediate vicinity of the fort; but to
prevent the Sioux from descending upon our
settlements it cannot, as is effectually pro-
ven. Then what is to be done? The settle
rapidly pressing further out, men of families
are settling in, and the necessity of some
sort of security is hourly increasing. Will
the authorities in Washington hear our en-
treaties in behalf of these people, or will
they turn a deaf ear, as in the past, and, in
act, if not in word, say to these industrious
farmers, who are purchasing the govern
ment lands and trying to build up homes
and bring a wild region under the yoke of
husbandry, fight your own battles? There
is now no security for horse-flesh whatever
in that country, and who can tell when a raid
for scalps will be made? Stockmen are free
and fearless, and ask the Sioux no odds, but
it is a beautiful region, productive and in
viting to farmers, who would settle there
with their families if they were assured of
any protection at the hands of the govern
ment. We trust our delegate in Congress
will not fail to lay these things before Con-
gress in a proper light, and secure the cree
ton of a post OF adequate dimensions to
accommodate such a garrison as will be able
to protect both the Musselshell and Judith.
The allegation of some of our eastern
journals, that the Mormon people instigated
the Utes to their present outbreak, is most
probably unjust. They were not, probably,
lnstigated by anybody, but were led to it by
their fiendish, blood-thirsty nature. Indians
soon tire of peace and quietude, besides they
have learned by experience that the more
treacherous and warlike they are and the
more they rebel, the better they will be
treated by the government.
THE murmur of hard times which has
come to us from the States for so long is at
last hushed, and we have the welcome It'd
ings Of a general awakening of business in
all quarters. The demand for labor is in
creasing, produce bears a good price, manu-
facturers are all at work. tradesmen report
large sales, and a general good feeling seems
to prevail throughout the entire length and
breadth Of the land.

'sTen Nights in u Bar Room"

This popular play will be produced at
the Grand Opera House, this evening.
That The play is an interesting one, none
who have ever seen it will gainsay. Its
design is to impress the minds of the
youth with the beauties of temperance
life, and to show the sad and pitiable end
of the drunkard's career. 1t never fails
to accomplish good. On the 2Sth of last
February the NJ. S. r. A., PLACED it for
the first time al our Opera House, and it
was conducive of bringing many young
men within the influence of the Associa-
ton. The object OF repeating it is two
fold one, to induce young men to sign the
pledge, and to endeavor to raise furniture
for their hall. None who take part re-
ceive the least r. muneration except the
talent from Philadelphia. All the pro-
ceeds for the benefit of the NJ. s. r. A,
The admission is bat 25 cents with 10
cents for reser. ed seats. All should pur-
chase a ticket and thus give fresh im-
petus to cause that has done SO much
good in the past. See advertisement i'll

than can be computed by arithmetical
methods. Who can compute the value
of man with an unsullied record, whose
professional life has been an ornament
his domestic relations too sacred to be the
subject of eulogy? Such men may be
removed, but death has no dominion over
them. They not only live with God, but
live here in the memory and Influence
of their fellow men; for they "being
dead, yet speaketh." "The path of the
just is as the shining light, which shineth
more aud more toward the end" This
portraiture Is verv applicable to our de-
ceased friend. He was a man of intellect,
Of pure character, which maturing from
day to day, caused his life to gov more
and more beautiful towards the end.
His light was shining, his cha acter be-
came more attractive and winning, his
influence more aud more felt. But his
perfect day is not for our vision. But
who can doubt that his beauty of life and
character but foreshadow the spendors
Of that glorious day. Only faith can
realize and hope anticipate the future OF
character that was so perfect here.

The performance of I'M 'liss, Child of
Sierras," at the Opera House, last night,
was one of the most unsatisfactory enter.
tainments gwen here for long time
Miss Annie P.xley, in the title role, and
Mr.. j. Il. McDonough, as "Yuba Bill"
were, of course, ex ,ellent, but the sup
porting company was composed of as
miserable set of sticks rs were ever
fraudnlently imposed upon legitimate
audience. "M 'liss" is too good a play to
be thus burlesqued. Though OF the melo-
dramatic order 1t Possesses many merits
that attract the Intelligent theatre-goers,
and abounds in thrilling points that set
the "galIery gods" wild. Presented by
good company 1t is amply able TO holdits
own, but presented AZ it was last night it
degenerates into disgusting bore. For
tunate II was for the audience that they
had IA vocalist like Miss Pixl-y TO relieve
the sickening impei fections of the sup
porting company. Her vocal selections
were rapturously eyacored, and "Polly,
the cows are in the corn" was received
with perfect storm of applause, even
though the musicians accompaniment
was about as harmonious as the notes of
first-class fish-horn. 1t was the singing
and acting of Miss Plxley alone that
made the audience feel at all satisfied at
having attended the performance. This
is not the first time Mr.. McDouough has
imposed company of incompetent ANA
teurs upon Wilmsngton audience, and
rows of empty benches will be his only
reward if he persists in such ungenerous
treatment.
On Monday evening next, Mr.. and
Mrs. George s. Knight will appear at the
Opera House in their great specially,
"Otto, a German" They have made this
play famous, and receive the warmest
endorsements of the press wherever they
appear.
