My Cigarette.

My cigarette, The amulet

The magic wand that, far beyond

Like loves desire, thy crown Of fire

And, ah meseems. poets dreams
Are in thy wreaths OF smoke ascending
My cigarette Can | forget
How Kate and |, in sunny weather,
Sat III the shade the elm trees made.
And rolled the fragrant weed together
l. at her side beatitied
To hold the guide her fingers willing:
She, rolling slow the papers SNOW,
Putting NY heart in with the filling
My cigarette see her vet
The white smoke from her red lips curling
Her dreaming ewes her soft replies
Her gentle slghs, and laughter purlng
Ah, dainty roll. whose parting soul
Ebbs out IN many a SNOWY blllow,

Ah cigarette The gay coquette
Has long forgot the flames she lighted
And you and unthinkius by
Alike are thrown, alike are sighted
The darkness gathers fast without

My cigarette and heart ar" out,
And naught is LEFT me but their ashes

Two kittens were sentenced to be
drowned in the presence of their mother,
whereupon the animals suddenly disap-
peared. Two days later the housewife
jokingly said: "If pussy would keep her
kittens from under my feet they would
be safe" Pussy went out and returned
with her kittens. That kind of cat
grows in Bath.

there was every prospect that the storm

his whereabouts or how far the brig had
been driven during the night he could
not tell: yet he supposed he must be
somewhere near the chops of the Sound

1t was a few minutes past six when the
captain was startled by loud cry tor

found that the torcmast MAS sprung lust

KILLED BY "SERPENT's EGG's."
John Dickenson, aged IS years,
residing at PSI Moffat street, Brook
lyn, and doing business at No. 229
Broadway, New York, has lost his
life through the inhalation of the
vapor from the toy known as ''ser-
pent's eggs" of which he was the
maker. These eggs, while burning
and producing the serpent, have for
a long time been considered by ply
sicians as dangerous to use in close
room on account of the noxious vapor
arising therefrom. The retort Friday
cracked while Mr.. Dickinson was
bending oyer it, and he inhaled the
poisonous fumes. When he noticed
this he drove his wife and children
quickly out of the base ment, at the
same time remarking that it was all
over with him. A short time after
he was seized with choking cough,
and in one of the spasms he died.

TESTING AN IMPROVED LocoMc

TESTING AN IMPROVED LOCOMO-
TIVE. = An improved locomotive,
named the Counterpressure, has been
tested on the Delaware and Lacka-
wanna Railroad. A special train
was attached, with prominent me-
chanies and capitalists as passengers.
On reaching Wateryille six heavily
loaded cars were added. and, with
out the application of a single brake,
were taken to Utica. The speed of
the train was diminished and stops
made on down grades of seventy,
eighty and ninety feet per mile, by
the use of lever, the engineer being
able thus, unassisted, to slacken the
speed of the train at will. The To-
connective used is of the ordinary
pattern. The power brought to bear
against the piston is obtained by the
use of an extra valve in the steam
chest. By this steam is had direct
from the boiler through pipe
which enters the steam chest, where
ordinarily the oil cups are placed.
By this arrangement there is no need
to reverse the cut, off lever, thereby
obviating an immense strain upon
the engine which attends the process
known to railroad men as "hauling
over"

The prospects of the Mexican Ad'
ministration, which is to be installed
in December, seem favorable. The
election of General Gonzalez was
readily confirmed by Congress and
accepted by the nation. His Cabinet,
which has been formed in concert
with President Diaz. will be under
the leadership of General Riva Pala-
clio, an experienced statesman, who
will preside over the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs. President Diaz
himself accepts the post of General.
in. Chief of the Mexican Army, and
will bring to the service of the new
Government the prestige of his own
successful administration.

ton, the Egyptian government has
ordered the corn exporters of that
country to decline to export to
Russia, and the Car and his millions
of subjects may for this season, at
least, be placed on our list of pur
chasers. 1t is demonstrated, then,
that we will be called upon to supply
grain to England, Germany, France,
Austria and Russia, and the specula-
ton which it would seem would
most naturally arise is, How are we
to supply the demand ?" instead of
"How are we to dispose of our sup
ply ?" Careful figuring shows that
our export orders will foot up at least
200. 100000 bushels-about IL. OOO. 400
bushels more than last year, when
our business was the largest in the
history of the country. With these
t1attering prospects for a greatly in
creased drain upon us during the re-
mainder of the fall and throughout
the winter. the trade throughout the
country has every assurance of a
brisk business, and there is no doubt
that Baltimore--the second largest
grain market in the country-will
come in for her full share of custom,
and will at the close of 1880 make a
still more satisfactory exhibit of pro.
gress than the gratifying showing of
1879.
