THE census of the entire population of
the British Islands was taken on Sunday
night the I'd inst, by means of prior sshed-
ules, which were left at every house to be
filled up with the name and other particu-
lars OF every person who passed Sunday

embraces wide range of social, agricultur-

THE TWO LOVERS.

Two lovers by moss grown spring:
They leaned soft cheeks together there
Mingled the dark and sunny hair
And heard the wooing thrushes sing.
o budding time!
o loves blest prime!
Two welded from the portal stept
The bells made happy carolings,
The air was soft as tanning wings,
White petals on the pathway slept
Opure-eyed bride!
o tender pride!
Two faces DER cradle bent
Two hands above the head were locked;
These pressed each other while they rocked,
Those watched life that love had sent
0 solemn hour! -t
o hidden power!
Two parents by the evening ire
The red light fell across their knees
On heads that rose by slow degrees
Like buds upon the lilly spire.
patient life
o tender strife!
The two still sat together there, ststz
The red light shone about their knees;
But all the heads by slow degrees
Had gone and left that lonely pair.
o voyage fast!
0 vanished past!
And made the space between them wide,
Their pale cheeks joined, and said ''once more!'
o memories -.r,
o past that is!

A Relic Of the Battle Of Chlckamauga.
From the Cincinnati. Gazette.

Ina window on Fourth street there is
relic of more than ordinary interest. It
tells a graphic story of the bloody field of
Chickamauga, and speaks eloquently of Col.
William G.. Jones, who lost his life in that
great struggle. Behind the line of battle
Of the Thirty sixth Ohio, which he COM
manded, stood two slender cedar trees.
The regiment lay down in front of the hur-
ricane Of fire which swept in from the en-
emy. Col. Jones stood behind them, and
went from point to point speaking words of
encouragement and command to his men.
One of the trees, q mere sapling, was loped
off four times by the cannon-shot of the
rebels as they discovered that their range
was too high, and lowered their line of fire.
The other some nine inches in thickness,
was filed with bullets, as well as shattered
by shell. Under that storm of fire it was
wonder that any one lived to tell the tale,
not that Col. Jones fell, calamity doing his
duty to his men and his country. Two
