of Col. Thornblrgh, he had the inde-
cency to speak of his wife. And after
he was nominated he secretly wished
for his defeat, but was too cowardly to
follow his i0ciiDstioIs. He hat g

nessee.
This agency only proposes 70 bring immi-
grants able 10 purchase land, but there is no
doubt that farm hands and house servants
for hire will follow, and in such numbers as
10 supply the demand.
A circular has Just been issued by Lind
burg, in New York, showing the advantages
of the south over the north as n home for imi-
grants. These are, that the best land has al.
ready been taken up by the immigrants, that
we do not suffer from drouth, cyclones and
grasshoppers like the western states, that the
winters north are too long and cold, and the
summers too short, hot and dry, rendering
all crops uncertain. The circular then goes
on TO show the fertility Of lands in the south,
the cheap rates at which they can be pur>
chased, and their greater nearness TO market
than farms in the northwest, where most OF
the immigrants are going.

REST.

My feet are wearied and my hands are Urea =
My soul oppresseds
And with desire have long desired
Rest-ouly Rest.
Tia hard TO toll, where toll is almost vain.
In barren way;
IT'S hard TO sow and meyer garner grain
In harvest days.
The burden OF my days are hard TO bear,
But God knows best;
And / have prayed-but vain has been my
For Rest, sweet Rest.
It's hard to plant in spriug and never reap
The autumn yield;
IT'S hard to till, ard when 'us titled TO Weer
Ger iruitless fields.
And SO cry, a weak and human cry,
10 heart-oppressed
And so Sigh, weak and human sigh,
FOR Rest-for Rest.
Ny way hswnund across the desert years
And cares infest
NY path, and through the flowing OF hot tears
pine for Rest.
Twas always so, when still child laid
On mothers breast
NV weary little head--e'en then prayed,
As now, for Rest.
Aud am l restless stlll twill soon be DER,
For down the west
Lies sun Is setting, aud see the shore
Where shall Rest.

sa,chel were made up of tTinkels, millinery
and laees.
In some Instances a man and vile make
hoplifiDg a regular business. One case OF
this kind occurred in Brooklyn some ume
since. The couple were named George ana
Mary White, neither of whom was more
than thirty years old. Their operations had
extended through several months. Iaey
were arrested in their house, where lhirty-
five pawn tickets, representing stolen articles
agpregating more than $1,000, we're found.
Their shoplifting performances might have
eluded notice had not burglary been also
committed by them. The residence OF q
LADY in Adelphi street, Brooklyn, was bur
plarized. The police upon investigation
concluded that the act was committed by
persons living in the house The Whites
were servants there, but the lady declared
she had confidence in them. A few months
sfterward Fulton street store keeper was
robbed Of some pieces of flannel by female
shoplifter. His description of her tailed
with that of the woman White. A police"
man 10 his search for the Whites accidentally
discovered the thirtyshve pawn tickets
secreted under the flooring OF a barn ac-
joining his residence. In the next house
the Whites lived, as was subsequenty'ascer-
tanned. The goods taken froIn the pawn
shops made wagon load.

From Forney's Progress.


Mrs. Bloomfield H. Moore, Of Phila-
delphia, now in Europe, spending her
summer with her titled married daugh-
ter, has republished an English edi-
tion of her poems, GoNDALINE's LES
SON. WARDEN's TALE, STORIES FOR
CHILDREN, and other pieces which
has attracted much attention in Lon
don as the same book did at home. A
copy of the work has been forwarded
to me, and been read with much salts
faction. Mrs. Moore is one of the rare
instances of woman Of large fortune
who utilizes her leisure by homes and
conscientious literary work, at the
same time employing her immense
resources in much pure benevolence.
Enjoying the rare advantages resulting
from this double pleasure, the pleasure
of intellectual relaxation and discrimi-
mating generosity, she is also comforting
signal benefit upon the readers Of her
books.
Many of the poems of this beautiful
little volume are far above mediocrity,
and all of them are inspired by thor
ough moral tone. There is no at
tempt at fine phrasing; she writeI
alike from her heart and her con.
science, and, whether she sings for th,
children in the nursery or shouts tn,
battle-cry of freedom, or tells the stor,
of her woman's love, or describes th,
seasons, she is wonderfully natural,
sweet and hearty. Mrs. Moore hal
lost her husband and her brother, suc
cessful partners in q great American
house, both within q short time, ant
has sought solace in travel and il
books, of which this neat 6r0chure il
the latest expression.
