The APPROACH or WINTER.


Old winierhas come with his cold chilling BREATH
And the verdure all falls from the trees;
All Nature seems touched with the finger Of death,
And the streams arc beginning to freeze.
When the wanton young lads DER the rivers do
slide,
And flo'a attends US no more;
while you are enjoying good hreside,
Then you ought to remember the poor
When the cod.feathered snow doth IN plenty
descend
And whitens the prospect around;
When tho keen-cutting winds FROM the North shall
attend,
Hard chilling aud freezing the ground
When the bills and the dales are all covered with
white,
And the North wind around you doth blow,
And bright twinkling star shall proclaim cold
night,
Then you should remember the poor.
when the poor, harmless hare shall be traced to
the wood
BY her footsteps indented In snow;
When your liPs and your fingers are started with
blood,
And the maTksmen game shooting 60;
When the poor Robin Redbreast approaches your
col
And the icicles hang at your door
and hot,
That's the time to remember the poor.
Soon thaw will ensue and tho waters increase,
And the rivers vehemently aow;
The sh from their prisons will gain release,
And in danger the travellers go;
When the helds are o'eraown by the proud swell
ing food,
And the bridges are useful no more
Wlilo in health ouiOv eVorVthluO that il
good
Sure, you ought to remember the poor.
MORAL.
Soon day will appear when Saviour was born
All Nations shall join ia one voice;
The whole World shall unite to salute the sweet
morn
All the snds Of the earth shall rejoice
When grim Death is deprived Of it, ali-killing
sting,
And the Grave Is triumphant no more,
Saints angels aad men haslljahs shall sing,
And the rich shall lie down with the poor.

A COAL OIL HORROR.

Elmira, New York was the scene of
the lamp horror The Gazette of that
place gives the details as follows
1t occurred on December 9th, at the
house Of John Randall, No 927 Col
lege Hill About IL o'clock at night
Mr.. Randall retired to bed up stairs
and Mrs. Randall, his wife, was get
ting ready to follow him. She went
into the dining.room to extinguish the
kerosene lamp which stood on the
mantle-piece. In the room at the time
was her mother, venerable lady
eighty.eight years Of age. As Mrs.
Randall was in the act OF turning
down the lamp it suddenly exploded
with a report which sounded like that
of cannon, to the startled ears of the
affrighted women. In the twinkle of
an eye the younger Mrs. Randall was
enveloped in flames, the burning oil
being thrown all over her clothing,
setting them on fire in an instant,
while pieces Of the broken glass Of the
lamp were hurled all over the room.
The agonizing shrieks of the burning
woman, mingled with tho piercing
screams of her affrighted mother,
brought Mr.. Randall, intensely alarm
ed down stairs, where he was Mortified
to see his wife one mass Of flames,
while the other lady in yain was seek
ing TO extinguisb the fiercely burning
clothes of her doomed and unfortunate
daughter. At this time the carpet,
saturated with oil, was on fire, and
altogether the scene was one to appall
and paraIyze the stoutest heart.
BURNED TO A CRISP.
Mr.. Randall hastened for bed quilts
and other clothing, which as soon as
possible were thrown over his suffer
ing wife, and thereby the flames were
finally smothered, but not before the
the clothing was entirely burned from
her body and she lay blackened,
blistered thing, insensible on the floor.
In trying TO save bis wife Mr.. Randall
was terribly burned. Both hands were
almost cbarred to the bones, and in
stamping" out the fire, raging in the
carpet, which threatened to destroy
the house, his feet were 80 badly blis-
tered that he could not afterwards
stand on them The elder Mrs. Ran
dali was also terribly burned about
the hands while trying to save her
daughter. The fingers of one hand
are so badly blistered that it is proba.
bic the ends will slough off. Very
soon after the terrible incidents rela-
ted, Mr.. Reuben Randall, a son Of the
injured ones, reached the house, and
when apprised of the awful nature of
the event was almost overcome with
anguish. AS soon as possible DR.. A.
s. Sellen, who lives next door, was
called up by young Randall, and going
to the house rendered what temporary
assistance was possible. When he got
there he found on the stoop burning
carpet saturated with oil, which had
been torn up and thrown out.
DEATH OF MRS. RANDALL.
On entering he saw Mrs. Randall
lying on the floor, presenting a shock.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10Th. The
Times treats the reports that
George Walker has secured the
probable participation of the Ger

etary Conference as evidence that
the administration is pushing the
matter, and condemns its action as
absurd and mischievous, compar-
ing it to the proposed conference to
which the fox invited his fellows
when he had lost his tail. If any
thing was ever demonstrated with
mathematical certainty, it is that
the experiment made in silver
coinage is dead failure in all le-
Ultimate advantages anticipated
from it, while it threatens our
financial system with indefinite
dangers. The feeling that this is
so is becoming general. Why
should it be checked by an illusory
plan for getting us out of our own
troubles by involving other nations
in similar ones? The Times thinks,
however, that the scheme will sue
coed, and the money necessary to
carry it out will be voted by the sill
yer party, though we may not get

Daily Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1876-1884, 1879-10-18

The lightning session of the SUI
preme Court at Los Angeles this
Fall is due to the desire of the
Judges of that tribunal to finish up
all the business which has been
submitted to them, and TO under
take no new litigation. On that
account 1t is expedient that, for
the remaining weeks of their term,
they should be together, in bank.
It is highly desirable that the new
judges should enter upon the dis
charge of their duties absolutely
untrammeled by arrears of work.
The most accomplished puisne
judge will require some little time
to master the novelties of his posi-
ton. In fact, we feel inclined to
compassionate the new Supreme
bench for the first year or two.
Much will, of course, be expected
from them. There was very os-
tentatious flourish about the
promptitude and efficiency of their
judicial work upon the part of the
late Constitutional Convention, of
pious and immortal memory"
The new judges are expected 10 be
~ handy and aerial as swift heeled
Mercury. They are q sort of Gany-
mede to the sutton, and the justice
which he asks is expected to be
commended to the lips of the liti-
CANT with all the swiftness with
which the cups of nectar were COM
mended to the lips of the Gods.
This Is an exIgent duty to impose
on a new and untried bench. With
all the coaching" of such an able
and experienced judge as McKins-
try, there cannot fail to be little
baking" for some years to come.
