In little town in Missouri a
lady was exercising class of juve-
niles in mental arithmetic. She
commenced the question, "If you
buy a COW for ten dollars" when
mp came a little hand. "What is
it, Johnny" "Why, you can't buy
no kind Of COW for ten dollars.
Father sold one for sixty dollars
the other day, and she was a re-
gular old scrub at that"

BAYARD TAYLOR.


For us he wandered through strange lands and
old;
We saw the world through him. The Arab,
tent
To him its storytelling secret lent.
And, pleased, we listened to the tales he told.
His task, beguilsd with songs that shall endure,
In manly, honest thoroughness he wrought;
From humble home-lays 10 the heights Of
thought
Slowly he climbed, but every step was sure.
How, with the generous pride that friendship
hath,
We, who so loved him, saw at last the crown
OF civic honor on his brows pressed down.
Rejoiced. and knew not that the gift was death.
Aud now for him. whose praise in deafened ears
Two nations speak, answer but with tears
q, Vale Of Chester trod by him so oft,
Green ne thy June turf keep his memory. Let
Nor wood. nor dell, nor STORED stream forget,
Nor winds that blow round lonely Cedarcoft;
Let the home voices greet him in the far,
Strange lands that hold him, let the messages
OF love pursue him over the painless seas
And unmassed vastness of his unknown start
Loves language heard beyond the loud dis
course
OF perishable fame, in every sphere
Itself interprets; and its utterance here
Somewhere in Gods unfolding universe
Shall reach our traveller, softening the surprise
OF his wrapt gaze on unfamiliar skies

THE people Of Memphis are emit
tied to, and have, the sympathy of
the public generally in the gigantic
troubles into which they have fallen.
Through mismanagement and COR
ruption in the administration of the
city government, together with the
affection incident to terrible cpl
denies which have visited them in
the past few years, they find them
selves overwhelmed with debt of
more than five millions. For years
past their taxes have been high,
amounting to almost a confscation
and now, to avoid this debt, they have
resorted to the desperate remedy of
calling upon. the legislature to
abolish their city government,
and their request has been granted.
Memphis is no longer city, has no
city government, and the territory
upon which it is located is remand
ed back to the State to provide
means for its government. How are
the people to escape the payment
of their debts by means so des-
perate and SO humiliating? Can
the Legislature thus wipe out the
rights of creditors Would it not
have been wiser and better and
more honorable to appeal to the
creditors of the city for a com
promise, which would certainly have
been granted, and by that means
discharge the debt?
