ANARROW ESCAPE,

Col. williamson a noted Texas law
yer, who had lately become insane, stood
up in church and asked young lady to
come forward and marry him. The
young lady was so surprised that she
tainted. This is believed 10 be the first
instance on record where man has es-
capped matrimony through the temporary
weakness OF the other side.

THAT Is so.

The colored republicans of Maryland
figure out that their votes have elected
twenty six members of the legislature,
one member OF congress and number of
local candidates, and not one colored
man has been nominated for anything
They should move down to Mississippi
where colored men are recognized in
the distribution of offices. Votes are
what the white republicans want. They
are willing to fill all the offices them
selves

WORDS.

Prune thou thy words-the thoughts control
That o'er thee swell and throng;
They will condense within thy soul,
And change To purpose strong.
But he who lets his feelings run
In soft, luxurious How,
Shrinks when hard service must be done,
And faints al every woe.
Faiths meanest deep more favor HI ars,
Where hearts and wills are weighed,
Than brightest transports, choicest prayers,
Which bloom their hour and fade.

THE GRAVE BY THE PLATTE.


ION the bank of the South Platte, and within
sight OF the mountains Is the grave OF an infant
A head-board bearing the inscription. "E. NJ -
Noy. "a, 1850, % is all that marks its resting
place in that lonely deserted waste-the home OF
the Red man
Where the Platte rushes swift,
And 1t, bright waters lave
The sands of the gol.i DRIFT.
In little lone grave.
Where the crags kiss tue skies,
And doth hide In the cloud,
\ tiny form there lies
In Its collin and shrOud.
And the wolf howl is heard
In the loneliness there,
While the night bre Ze is strr'u
by lis cries of despair.
For, robb'd Of his fe asst,
That lie scented afar-
The fang of the wild beast
Shall thy body ne'er mar.
Bat the river shall sing
Thy sad requiem low;
Ald the flowers of spring
O'er thy little grave grow.
And the mountain shall shade
Thy abode IN the sands;
Though thy mansion is made
Where thy spirit now stands.
| Sleep on, little one sleep
| And reck not where you lic;
For angels round you keep
Eternal watch on high.

ANIMAL REPORT OF SECRETARY sCBURz


WASHINGTON, December 1.-The annual
report OF the Secretary Of the Interior was
made public to-day. In submitting this his
last annual report to the President Secre-
tary SchurZ gives review not only OF the
operations OF The past year, but OF the four
years OF his administration. The larger
part OF the report is devoted TO Indian
affairs. In bis opening chapter upon this
subject the Secretary gives an explanation
OF an important change which has taken
place with regard 10 the reservation system.
He says that although at first accepting as
he found 1t the IeseryaliOn policy which has
so long been followed by the Indian Office,
more extensive observation and study OF
the m litter gradually conyinces bin that it
was mistaken policy; that 1t would be vast.
~ better for the Indians and more IN accord
ance with Justice as well as wise expe-
dent to respect their home attachments, TO
leave them upon the lands they occupied,
provided such lands were capable OF yield.
ing them sustenauce by agriculture or pas
tural pursuits, and TO begin and follow up
the practice Of introducing among them the
habits and occupations OF civilized life on
the ground they inhabit. In view of the
fact also that the maintenance OF the system
of large reservations against the pressure
OF white emigration and settlement would
in course Of time become impracticable,
different policy has been followed, having
for lis object the settlement OF tue Indians
upon lands in seyeralty, the disposal
for their benefit of their lands not
required for this purpose, and gradually to
prepare the way for their final iDcorpOra-
ton into the body-poItic as Independent
men, invested with all rights which other
inhabitants OF the country possess. The
results already accomplished in pursuance
Of this policy and the promising outlook in
the same direction are described in general
terms and illustrated by specific accounts OF
progress made by individual tribes.
The Secretary does not make any recon-
mendation OF importance in regard 10 the
land grant railroads. but recapitulates their
last annual report, and states. as result OF
investigations made by the Governments
Auditor, that theirpropGty is in good con-
dition that their earnings have largely in
creased and that although the rates both
for freight and passengers have been re-
duced, it is believed there will be, wiki the
filling up OF the country west OF the Mis-
souri,, remuneratiye business enough for
each one Of them.
