FREMONT's SCHEME

Gen. Fremont's scheme for flooding
that part of the Colorado desert lying in
southern California is attracting so much
attention that a general statement of what
he hopes may be accomplished cannot
fail to be interesting. 1t is urged that,
ages ago, the basin of which Dry lake is
the lowest point was part of the gulfOf
California. The sediment carried down
by the Colorado river finally collected at
what was then the mouth of the river in
such quantities as TO dam off the north
ern arm of the gulf, and, as the waters
slowly evaporated, this isolated sea as
sumed its present appearance. Dry lake
is 800 feet below the level OF the sea- At
one point on the southern Pacific the
plain is 26S feet below the level of the
sea- The whole basin is about $50 miles
long, and from 30 to 90 wide. Between
this and the head of the gulf is thirty
miles OF territory just above the sea level.
Gov. Fremont's scheme is to cut canal
across this strip of land and allow the
waters of the gulf to I'LL up the basin.
This, he urges, is better scheme than
the one proposed years ago, to turn the
Colorado river into the desert, although
the one might supplement the other. In
this scheme Arizona and Mexico are as
much interested as California. The esti.
mated cost of cutting the canal is 81 900, :
600.

Loi our congress has assembled
And where floats the stripes and stars,
Who once cheerod the stars and bars;''
Time" tits said, "makes all things even"
r a And odi in II 6 n peaceful years.
By the rebel Brigadiers.
VAST for this we scaled the ramparts
SurGing with the smoke OF help
VAST for this we marched and laboredp
VAST for this our heroes fellf
VAST Tor this they starved in pr isons-
Nineteen rebel BrigadiersY
Down within the damp morasses
v Fought We long ana fought we well.
While the booming OF the cannon
Rang the soldier herO's knell;
High upon the heights we rallied
Rent the heavens with our cheers,
That the South" might send to con ress
Nineteen rebel Brigadiers.
Twas for this we tramped on picket
Through the night and through the rain;
Twas for this the country 1abored,
heart, and hand, and throbbing brain;
Twas for this that friends were parted
That today our great ID Law makers
Might be rebel Brlgadiers.
Though we won the hsrd-fought battles,
Though We gained the laurel Crown
still the "blue" is 'wsy ''of color,''
- And our Dag hangs ''uniOd down."
And this hard fact burns and sears
That the sum of all our vict'ries
Are these nineteen Brigadiers.
And the ghost of treason once more
stalks across the saddened land,
while the life blood of our brothers
Drtps from either bony hand;
And the goddess of our freedom
shades her eyes to hide her tears.
As the country cries: go higher,

GRANDMAMMAs ELopEMENT.

Grandmamma's picturer The darlingl
You would never believe what say,
As AND s dreams hall arm the daylight away.
For the hair that was gold is pale silver,
And dimples are wrinkles-ah me.
That beauty and joy are such phantomsl-
No, you never would dream it was She
Those eyes were of tenderest azure;
How white were the lids and the brow,
And y damask like bloom upon peaches
Lit the cheek that is withered so now
How sweet is that smileI can you fancy
Poor grandma as charming Is that2
See the cOQuettish rose in the ringletS-
She objects to one now in my hat
She thinks this age abandoned to folly,
No such maidenS as hers to be seen,
The race on the nigh road to ruin
And forzets all about GretnR Greenl
All, that rosei Once saw grandpa tremble
And there dropped from his wallet some petals
Still sweet, but all yellow and dried.
Twas that very same rose this bright creature
Pinned into her tresses that night,
That at last she was willing for flight
For hight to the far northern country,
And the smfthy that welded in one
The lives that fond and stern despot
Had else made forever undone.
How she thrilled at the door of the ballroom.
And looked over her fan with vague dread,
While her irate and naughty old father
,,l Sh9nea danger and threw up his head
Come reason the step to regret?
All at once such tremor ran DER her,
Such throb-and with that their eyes met
Not long, in the shade of the curtain,
Needs the lover to plead for his fate;
Not long, at the foot of the garden,
Need pOst-boyS and pOst-6haise to walt;
For the world has not turned in its slumber
When. fearful lest all be too late,
Part eager, part shy and reluctaIA,
she slips through the great iron gate.
Then over the Gathering turnpike
That stretches its white length away,
How the hoofs ring, how hedge rows and pal
ings
Fly past them till morning is gray!
How strong are the arms folded round her,
us the breast where she leans her sweet mead !!
How tender the reverent kisses.
HOW fervent the vows that are said
All, love like this can never fail her:
But-papa-would he ever forgive?
And yet, If he should not, his idol
Can very well manage to live
But he willI-Ah, what's thisl Oh the thun-
der,
The tread OF those horses behind;
Those terrible deep-chested horses,
That travel as fleet as the wind,
That hardly are passed by the lightnings!
GA! what if the pistol shots fy,
Ii her lover should fall, if her father,
Red handed, should see the man die!
But he laughs, for he knows that the guineas
Postillion and pOst-bOy have had
VIII let down wheel the first moment
The turnpike begins to be bad;
And he bids her look out of the window,
While ne holds fast and kisses her wrist.
AND see great-grandpapa in his breakdown
stand shaking an impotent fist
All, well, as she sits in her corner,
Would you dream such adventure she'd
passed?
The mild-eyed and DOING old LADY,
What ashes youth burns to at last!

WORDS OF WISDOM

The great man is he who does not lose
his ehlld's heart
To be dumb for the remainder of life
is better than to speak falsely.
1t is fool who praises himself, and a
mailman who speaks i'll of himself.
Nature has sOwn in man seeds of
knowledge, but they must be cultivated
to produce fruit
Ill-gOtten gains are never worth the
price, and good conscience never COSTS
what it is worth.
Clouds are the veil behind which the
face of day coquettishly hides itself to
enhance its beauty.
All is hollow where the heart bears
not part, and all is in peril where prin-
ciple is not the guide
There is not stream of trouble so deep
and swift running that we may not cross
safely over If we have courage to steer
and strength to pull
Secret kindnesses done to mankind are
as beautiful as secret injuries are detest-
able To be invisibly good is God-like,
as 70 be invisibly evil is diabolical.
