BY JUSTIN f. MCCARTHY.

There's world not far from this world of
ours,
But we know not its paths nor ways,
For its pathways are strewn with thorns and
flowers,
And dark are the brightest days.
And little few think of the want and Woe
And the misery reigning there,
Where the lamp of Hope forever burns low
And poverty taints the air.
There's a world not far from this world of
ours,
Where hunger's voice is crying,
Where the lands are the gardens, the attics
the bowers,
Where the squaiid poor are dying;
And little few think in their homes Of ease,
With light and comfort round,
OF the biting cold and the bitter breeze
And the horribly humid ground.
There's a world not far from this world OF
ours,
'Tis the home of the poor and lowly,
Where the cloud of misery ever lowers,
And the sun of love shines coldly,
Where the lightly clad and the badly fed
Can see no brighter morrow,
Where misery meekly bows her head
Beside unpitied sorrow.
There's a worl not far from this world Of
ours,
'Tis the home of the buried dead,
Where the wealthy stript of all borrowed
powers,
With the lOwly lay their head
Where the poor and the proud sleep side by
side,
To wait the Judgment call
And Misery dwells with pomp and pride
And Mercy smiles on all.

FLOOR FOR HoRsE-srABLEs. The

Germantown Telegraph says:
As long as we can remember, the question
as TO the best floors for horse stables has

ordinary dirt, but they did not prove salts

the horses feet, scratches would follow aud

clearly not desirable, we never tried either.
We began with plank-fiOoring, We're dissuad-

found it preferable to the others. We prefer
hemlock to anything we have ever used, take
a double twC-inch plank, with the front part
kept well covered with straw at all times for
the forefeet. and at nights to be wellbedded
with straight Tye-sJraw. We have found no
disadvantages from the flooring the feet

are hard, and others that they become slip
