Texas Poeticailt nescribed.


Beautiful Texasl What do you tfiiuks
Plenty of grapes, and no wine to drink:
Plenty Of creeks, but no water at hand;
No oats for your horses, but plenty of land;
Plenty of horses, but none fit to ride;
Plenty Of poverty and some little pride;
Plenty of COWS, no butter on milk
No dress for the dairy, but plenty Of silk
Plenty Of hides, but no leather that's tanned,
Though serubby mesquite encrymbers the laDds
Plenty of rain when 1t comes down at ALL
Enough and to spare would 1t come at your cal.
Plenty of wind-thcres no drawback on that
And when talking of stock, there's plenty OF chat
Plenty of rock the cisterns to wall.
But they cannot find time to do that at alls
Plenty of bois dare. not hardly hedge;
Plenty of hogs, as thin a wedge;
Plenty of bacon year before last,
Plenty again when there comes good mast;
Plenty OF chairs, but all so low
That to eat you must hang ON your own elbow;
Plenty of Sc grub" sucf poor beef and bacon,
Which reminds you of the home you've sadly ioTsAken
Oh land Of great promise mot yet fulfilled
What a country You might be, if people so wiued;
All teeming with beauty, plenty and heath
Every requisite here for comfort and wealth
But with corn-bread and bacon men have enough,
And women get happy over bottle of snuff.

Pinafore Cake.

First with some hot water bowl nicely heat,
And in it a cupful Of butter then beat;
With this one half cups Of sugar unite
By degrees, and beat well till creamy and light;
Then take three fresh eggs and continue to beat,
Halt teaspoonful Of saieratus and milk that is sweet
Turn in half-cupful; together then sft

Then spread in two layers, and carefully bake,
And send me piece of your Pinafore cake.

AT THE MASQUERADE.
BIZ CARRIE V. SHAW.

Yes, we will go to the ball,
You and / and the rest.
The winds seem quiet for all,
The heavens are at their best.
The day has been gray with rain,
And throbbing with mem'ries old,
That always come with their pain,
When skies are SO wan and cold.
But, now that the clouds are fair,
The storm is still in my breast;
Wen go with the maskers there,
You and I and the rest.
You need not search for mask
No one will guess it, dear,
So handsome and calnl-I would ask
And defy them, to guess your fear.
Gilbert is solemn and wise,
a wonderful role for him,
But sight of his happy eyes
Is making your own grow dim.
All roses of red and white,
There's love and innocence, too
he pale ones 1 choose tonight,
And leave all the red for you.
D'Anglee is waiting the while,
think we are dressed to go;
Sweet Jessie and JUNE smile
Through masks of carmine and snow.
And now the winds are still,
And the skies are at their best,
Wen go to the dance on the hill
You and I and the rest.
masked for the night,
Whirl in confusion around;
Smiling and testing and light,
Music and revelry's sound.
Flowers and garIandS so sweet
Scatter perfume as they pass,
And vice and innocence meet
Alike in the glare of the gas.
Hearts with their burdens of care,
Souls with their burdens of sin,
Masked, with their faces so fair,
Wait for the dance to begin.
And you, with your fear-tossed soul,
And the roses over your heart,
Play out your pitiful role,
And dance till the sad notes part.
With eyes so serene and calm,
You stand where the red flowers glow,
And l hold the blossoms of balm
With petels of perfumed snow.
But mist is before my sight,
Ard 1 turn my fower-wreathed head
From glimmering blossoms white,
And flashing of roses red.
For like to the laughing lips
That under the rouge are white,
Your heart in its dark eclipse,
Lies under the roses light,
And the snowy petels that shed
Their fragrance over my brow
Seem cold and white like the dead
To the hearts grown chillier now.
But Gilbert tires of the dance,
Jessie and JUNE are here;
D'Anglee is ready, perchance,
The music is ending, dear.
So let us go with the word,
The masqueraders are through,
And the eyes of the stars are blurred
With tears of the perfumed dew.
All, see how the planets stared
There's Saturn all white and cold,
And Mars with his reddish glare,
And Venus Of xanthic gold.
They smile with questioning light
To throw down the roses red,
Tear off the blossoms of white,
While fragrance and beauty are dead.

1t is pretty generally known that the
orthodox teas prepared III the East for
American and European consumption
are aduIterated, but comparatively few
people are aware Of the extent to which
this aduteration is carried ON, or what
substances are used. NJ. Husscn, n
French chemist Of note, has made n
thorough investigation of the subject,
and the result Of his researches has been
laid before the Academy of Sciences.
He finds that Pl1lssian blue, indigo and
gypsum, i'll small quantities, are the
principal ingredients employed to i'm
part the face" or "blOOm,' to teas,
and that in the proportions used they
are very innOcuous. This adultcmtiOn
takes place where the plants are raised
but more extensive aduIteratlon is sub
scqucntly indulgcd in by the Europeans,
who, with their superior knowledge,
have surpassed the Asiatics in their
fraud by the use OF still more dangerous
drugs, such as chrOmatc of lead and ar
senicate Of copper, besides making use
of comparatively innocuous substances,
such rs sulphato of iron, stearite, car
Donates OF lime and magnesin. The
Chinese have become most expert in
manipulating green teas, which they
color with few simple substances, some
of them poisonous-for example, plum
bngo, Prussian blue, curcuma and kao-
lin. With or without the true leaf of
the shrub, they can produce tea of any
desired tint In order to give the in
fcrior or false leaf the aroma of the tea,
the Cclcstials mix quantity of it with
certain flowers, especially species Of
olive. In short, according to NJ. Hus-
sen, no injurious proceeding is omitted
in the Celestial empire to palm on the
outer barbarian inferior or false teas.
In the leading tea-grOwing districts the
Government has corps of inspectors
who are required to see that the goods
are dispatched in a pure state. The
precaution, however, avails little-for at
the shippin" ports there is no attempt to
prevent the merchants, or brokers, from
commencing their fraudulent practices,
which they carry ON to their hearts
content. In spite. of their knowledge of
the extent to which this adulteration is
carried on, we presume our people will
continue to drink of the cup which is
said to cheer, without stealing away a
persons brains. u
