THE SISTER MONTHS.

When April steps aside for May,
Like dismouds all the rain-drops gli,ten;
Fresh yioIets open every day;
The children with the streamlets sing,
When April stops at last her weeping,
And every happy growing thing
Laughs like u babe just reused from sleeping.
Yet April waters, year BY year,
For lsgssrd May, her thirsty flowers;
And May, in gold of sunbeams clear,
Pays April for her silvery showers.
All flowers Of spring not Mays own.
Tne crocus cannot often kiss her;
The snow drop, ere she comes. has flown;
The earliest yioiets always miss her.
Nor does May claim the whole OF spring:
she leaves 10 April blossoms tender,
That closely TO the warm furf cling,
Or SWING from tree boughs, hign and slender.
And May flowers bloom before Nsy comes,
To cheer, a little. April's ,adness;
The p~acb bud eiows, the Wild bee huns,
And wind-no wave In graceful gladness.
They are two sisters. side by tide
Sharing the cbanges Of the weather,
Playing st pretty seek and hide
So far apart, 70 close together.
April and May one moment meet
Buf farewell signs their greetings smothef,
And breezes tell, and birds repeat,
How May and April love each other.

A Novel Point Of Law.

The New York Sun relates the fol-
lowing:
A curious point of law has arisen
in the case of James Walsh, convict
ed in Brooklyn of murder in the
first degree for the killing of Bsbara
Groenenthal. Miss Groenentbal
was beautiful girl of seventeen.
The district attorney, in opening q
vehement argument to the Jurors,
suddenly thrust before them q pho.
tOgraph of the murdered girl. This
likeness had not been introduced in
evidence. aud the court promptly
ordered IL To be withdrawn from the
view OF the jury. Rnt The mischief,
fany, had already been done. Con.
sldering the powerful influence of
beauty upon the heart of man, il 10
impossible to say that this irregular
introduction OF Photograph which
displayed the lovelincss Of the fair
victim may not have Influenced the
verdict, and caused the Jury to
bring in q verdict OF murder in the
first degree instead of murder in the
second degree.
This incident suggests somewhat
similar one that occurred some years
ago in Mansfield, on the trial
of John Arnold for the killing in
this city Of Rnphus Sewall, one of
the noblest young men, by the way,
We ever knew. The killing was
without justification, indeed q muir.
der. Arnold got q change of venue
to De Sofa parish, where, through
skillful manipulation on the part of
his attorneys, be WAS acquitted.
One of his attorneys was 8. L.
Taylor, now Judge of the District
Court. One of the counsel for the
prosecution was our friend j. G.
Moncure, now Circuit Judge, who,
while a very fine advocate, is very
emphatic. A short time before his
trial M. 8. Jones, an admirable car.
icaturist, had sketched the then
"Major" in the act Of "coming down
to his work" in addressing a jury.
Taylor happened to have the carica-
ture in his possession and whilst
addressing the jury rolled it mp and
fillipped it into the Jury box.
1t is said that when the jury re-
tired that caricature entirely coun.
teracted the effect of the eloquence
of the learned counsel for the pros
ecution and probably influenced the
verdict.-Shrerport Times.

The Newest Temperance
Project.

''The most original" says the New
York Herald, "ofthe many proposed
laws for the suppression Of intem-
perance is the bill now under cOnsid.
Grafton in Indiana requiring that
any man desiring to drink shall take
out yearly license, price ten dol.
lars, the money to 60 to the support
Of inebriate asylums and the license
to be cancelled the first time its
holder is found drunk. Such q law
would be effective in many ways.
In the first place it would distinctly
draw the line between the drinkers
and the non.drinking class. The
church committee that might want
to know of the habits OF candidates
for admission, aud the father of
manageable daughters who are
much sought after by young men,
would not have to depend upon
hearsay instead of evidence; they
could satisfy themselves fully by
referring to the official list of license
holders. The licensed would be
compelled, in order 70 continue in
indulgence, to devise some way of
learning when they have drank
enough, which is something that,
up to the present time, no drinking
man has ever been able to discover.
Last, but not least, such a law
would compel drinking man to be
ten dollars ahead to start with-a
financial condition to which few con-
sumers of liquor ever attain. Per-
haps if the inabriate were to find
himself with ten dollars in his peck
ct he would be tempted to make
additions to it instead Of throwing
away his money in order to lose
his brains.'
