THE BELLS OF TIME.

Q bells of time! whose distant ime
Rings out old love, the poets rhyme,
Rings out old fears, the drip of tears,
The cadence of departing years.
How soft each note at eve shall float
Adown the distances remote, "
And bear away at close of day
The hopes which come but not to stay
0 passing time! I hear your chime,
The sur%lng OF a wave sublime,
Which on its crest it's heaving breast,
Bears each days troubles unto rest.
1t bearcth more to that far shore
Where we shall HE, life's voyage o'er
With waters cold, beyond our fold,
1t takes the treasures we would hold.
A treasure rare we would not spare,
Slips from our arms, that kept with care,
And wife and child, that on us smiled,
Go down beneath the waters wild.
And still, o bells! your music swells,
And of the past and loved ones tells,
And still float each dying note
Above the roar from shore to shore,
Above the waves that bear us DER,
Until your chimes shall cease, o Time!
When ring the heavenly bells sublime.

He Knew Elm.

The London correspondent of Harper's
Bazaar says the royal family always bow
to any one who salutes them, and apro-
pos of this an amusing story has been told
us by young New Yorker, who found
himself driving along the pretty country
road leading to Chiswick one summers
evening in company with another Ameri-
can gentleman; the latter, having just
come abroad for the first time, was new
to all English impressions and formalities.
A grand garden party had been given
earlier In the afternoon by the princess Of
Wales, and the guests having all returned
to London, the road was somewhat de-
serted. AS MIR. A. and his friends
bowled along, an open carriage came
down the road toward them, containing
two ladies dressed alike in black and
white silk, with vlolet-~ reathed bonnets,
and faces that proclaimed them to be sis
tiers. Mr.. A. lifted his hat, and the
ladies smiled most agreeably, and bowed
most politely. "What pretty women p
exclaimed his companion. "You know
them? ss@SWho are athey2'' Only the
princess of Wales and her sister, y replied
MIR. A., carelessly. A cloud Of dust,
and next came a dog-cart driven
by stout, handsome gentleman, by
whose side sat the dark-haired, good
looking czarowitz; again the same
aftable exchange Of salutes. "Wales
and his brother-in-law are passing" said
A., in passing. The rolling Of more
carriagewheels announced victoria in
which sat the pretty young Princess Beat
rice and the marchioness of Lorne "a pleas
ant smile and boA from the latter, rather
naughty glance and brief inclination of
the head from the former. ''Beatrice and
LOUISE" said A. to his astonished
companion vino had no time to speak be-
fore the landau of Princess Mary of Teck
appeared, her stout royal highness smiling,
as usual with the most winning sweetness
DIS she returned Mr.. As boz. Even
the two young ladies opposite her bowed
prettily, and the gay looking duke of Kent
who came next IN T cart with the duke
OF Edinburgh, gave a most sweeping re-
turn to Mr.. AS salute. One royal name
after another being uttered to MIR. As
companion the latter broke out with
swell, A. I have heard Americans
were we'll thought Of over here, but only
fancy how quickly you've got acquainted
with the whole family. I wish I could
have been introduced" Not until come
weeks later, and finding himself in the
park, and seeing how all the hats were
lifted, and every one DO ed to, did Mr.
As companion discover that his
friends intercourse with the royal family
was ''bowing acquaintance'' only.

Keeping Stock Healthy.

Animals in wild state like wild, men,
usu lily enjoy uninterrupted good health
until they die. This is undoubtedly fo1
the reason that their lives arc simple and
their diet uniform. When severe sick
ness does overtake the one or the other
mortality usually ensues, and if contagion
is rife they die off in great numbers. The
more artificial the condition Of life, the
more subject will the individuals be to
various forms of disease that constantly
grow out Of his artificial condition.
Hence solitary animals are not subject to
epidemic or contagious diseases as are
gregarious animals; and in the human
family, when each household is isolated

LETTER FROM THE CAPITAL.

BOISE CITY, March Is, 1879
Ed WoRLD:-Since my arrival here
| have endeavored TO ascertain all the
reliable news possible concerning the
Snake river mines. Last evening r.
5. Mills, ex-Assessor of OWyhee conn
ty, and owner of the ferry between
here and Silver City, came in. He
says that several parties, among
whom are Chesbro and a party Of
good miners from Owyhee county,
who all unite in the belief that the
large bars at that point will pay well
with the new process, and a great
many locations have been made, but
it will be sometime before any claims
will be opened. From assengers ar
irving from kelton l learn that at
Glenu's ferry, on the Overland road,
there is considerable stir, and that a
great many people from the direction
of the railroad are moving that way,
and that a double skirmish line Of
men extends along the "sagy" banks
Of the mighty Snake for many miles,
and that all those who can command
money enough to open their claims
are doing So The claims already
opened are paying satisfactorily.
Men are leaving Boise City daily for
the scene of action, although no panic
prevails.
There are quite a number Of idle
men here, and are going to the Basin
The cople here are unanimous in
favor Of wagon road to Yankee
Fork via Banner. This enterprise
should he commenced at once, or with
in the next thirty days, so that it will
be in condition for the summer freight
to pass over.
The chances for fruit this season in

Fire.

An alarm of fire in Chinatown
aroused our citizens last Tuesday even
ing The fire was in the garrett of a
China restaurant at the lower end of
Montgomery street and originated
from defective stove pipe. 1t was
soon extinguished, the building sus-
aiming slight damage. Many of the
stove pipes in the Chinese quarter are
badly and carelessly arranged, and
until the Mongolians are forced TO put
them in proper shape Idaho City will
be in constant danger of being des-
ttoyed by the fire fiend.
