A SUMMER DAY.

The noxors 10y sleeping beneath the dew
1nf the Mother had watched the whole night
through.
The wild sweet carol of one small bird
was the sound that the weary watcher heard.
And the Summer dawn grew into the Morn,
Sat sill she sat weeping beside her frst-born,
Life was fading from cheek and brow.
And tho Mothers heart was hopeless
Not one sound in the chamber of death
was heard-save the Maiden's laboring breath:
No word of murmur the Mother spoke;
Silent aud calm are the hearts that break.
Morning passed-and the Noon so still
Bathed in warm loneliness wood and hill.
slnmbrous airs from the West went bv,
And the Mother watched tor her child to die
Afternoon came-and the Maiden Law
Aifeless and soulless-n mold of clay!
Rain came down az from eyes that won't.
watching vas oyer-the Maiden slept.
Through the quiet falling of evening rain
1he BIRDS soft carol stole in again.
Then the Mother said: "'Ti. n mess.cs e., -.
40 toll me, o child, that tits well with thce,"
And the Summer day ended, for ..late or long,
Every day ~eareth to even-sone"

The commissioner of agriculture,
referring to experiments with sor-
ghum cane, says that twenty-five
out of forty-two varieties planted
during the year proved valuable for
sugar making, and experiments as
sure him that the crop of 1884 will
terminate our dependence on foreign
nations for sugar. Regarding the still
limited experiments in the South
ern states the commissioner says,
the success reported by his cores
pondents, as attending the growth of
sorghum in Louisiana and Texas ,and
the demonstration that two crops o
year of this species of cane can read
lily be grown and worked up before
frost in all the extreme Southern
states, warrants the belief that the
sugar planters of that region will
soon find it advantageous to partly,
if not wholly, substitute the cultiva-
tion of sorghum for that of ribbon
canes. Aside from this one-slxth to
one-third Of the Southern sugar
lands have to be given up annually
to the production of seed-cane, sor-
ghum producing its own seed and
yielding a good crop of sugar be-
sides. Two sorghum crops can be
grown within the same period with
out danger of frost, while the ribbon
cane, as is shown this year, is fire.

WESTERN ENDORSEMENT OF JAS
w. THROCkMoRTON.

The San Antonio Times, as the adj
vocate of Hon. J. w. Throckmorton
for the United States Senate, gives
its reasons for such preference as
follows:
I'VE consider him the peer of any
gentleman who has been spoken of
in connection with the position, and
the possessor of every capacity to
properly represent Texas in the SEN
ate. He has served her from his
youth with unfaltering fidelity, and
perfect acceptance in every post of
honor and trust that Texas could
give him, except the United States
Senate, and we have implicit faith
that there he will still be found q
true, faithful and useful servant of
the people. We prefer Governor
Throckmorton, because he has ever
been the friend of Western Texas.
Coming upon the stage of action
when North Texas and West
Texas were alike numerical
ly weak, yet alike necessitous,
and requiring the protection OF
the state IN all respects, he cor
daily united with our representa-
tives, and so solidified the North
and West that the needful legisla-
ton for these sections were forced,
as 1t were, from the more populous
and less neeessitous portions of
Texas, then known as Eastern Texas.
The services rendered by him TO
Northern Texas, in the early days
from 1850 to 1856, laid the the foun-
dation, on proper basis, for the en-
pire which has grown up TO be the
Northern Texas of to-day. Anti
well too hs has stood tho test of
time, for the people whom he served
with whole heart and strength, to-
day do reverence to his name. and
viii roll up vote for him in the
senatorial election, that will prove
that he still retains their love and
confidence. With almost equal af-
fection do the old settlers remember
Throckmorton, and the great service
he rendered our section when the
San Antonio river was the Indian
fresAtis,, sphen life and DropertyWas
PROSTATE at the feet of society IN us
widest and most attractive garb.
Western Texas has not forgotten
these thIngs. They live In the hearts
Of the people, and in every town,
village, hamlet and hreside and the
name of Throckmorton is held in
special esteem.

THE Panama canal scheme is like
ly to have great deal of discussion
now that NJ. de Lesseps is sailing his
stock rapidly, and now that Con
gress nus rrvt---1- he'd tho subject
thrust upon its attention. The
Philadelphia Bulletin saws that the
political and economical aspects OF
the scheme are being considered II
may be not unimportant to refer to
its hygienic aspects, tits alleged by
Professor John Gamgee, an English
gentleman who has given a good
deal of study to the problem of the
spread of contagious diseases, that
the opening of the Panama CANA
would greatly add to the difficulty
of protecting American seaports
against the introduction of yellow
fever. He claims that yellow
fever is strictly q ship disease
never originating on the land. He
fears that the number OF ships
