Gracefully Growing Old.

It is cheerful change to turn from
the doubling, dyspeptic utterances Of
many Of our later poets, to tho hopeful
and trusting words Of the elder poets Of
this country, who, full Of honors and
full Of years, still delight and instruct
the public with pure ard simple words.
A writer says: "There is the beauty Of
cheerfulness. resignation, peace and con-
tent about the productions Of our yener-
able poets, Emerson, Whittier
and Holiness" Age has come to
thess men. They have seen all Of the
play Of life, and have looked upon its Sc
verify. Victory and defeat have been
around them. They have travelled in the
valley and walked upon the mountain
top Of life. Upon the world they have
not been Indifferent spectators. They
have suffered with the bondsman in his
slavery, and rejoiced with him in his
freedom. They have been sad when
wrong triumphed, and happy when right
has been victorious. They have mixed
in the worlds current, and know the di-
rection Of the stream. They have lived
in an age Of doubt and speculation, but
it has not disturbed them. They be-
lieve that the future will not be failure
upon the present. Without making any
undue noise about it, they are as willing
TO trust the providence Of the future rs
they are to be grateful to the benefcence
Of the world around them. These men
offer all rich example of how 10 pass
through this life. They have not gone
through the world growing and grum-
bling. They have seen the bitterness Of
life. They have seen the errors and the
wrongs. They have fought them like
true soldiers. But in the progress Of the
race they have never lost faith. Age has
come upon them like benediction.
And now that they are about ready to
leave this life, " "they look fearlessly and
hopefully into the undiscovered country
which lies not far ahead Of them. The
childlike faith Of Whittier breathes
through everything he writes.
From Holmes comes the strong, clear,
| joyous, unshrinking and gracious poem,
"Before the Curfew." A larger and
more healthful production has not fallen
from the author Of the unmatched eau
tocrat Of the Breakfast Table," The
late essay by Emerson on the "Superla-
tive " was as true and brave as anything
he wrote when the blood ran swifter
through his veins than it does now. In
thought, Bryant had lost none Of the art,
grace and cheerfulness Of his youth.
Before his death he gave us one Of his
greatest productions, "The Flood Of
Years" The few great men in American
literature will soon fall among the dead.
Never did literary men grow old more
serenely or more gracefully, or display
throughout their lives greater purity
Of character. They are an example to
all, Of how life should be lived, tenderly
and bravely, and how age and death
should be met without regret or fear.
Soon for these men the silver cord vii
be loosed and the gold bowl be broken
but blameless life Of high thinking nnt
noble acting has prepared each to brave
| ly take
His chamber In the silent halls Of death
Like one who wraps the dmpery OF his couch
About him and lies down to pleasant dreams

Now, HALL grew up 70 the age OF IL
still charming lad; but the parents,
always fully occupied by the last arrival,
had not carried out their project oil edu-
cation. He was as wild and untamed as
colt, and spent more Of his time in the

him with kind OF calm friendship due

accustomed walk with his merchant
friends. used from time TO time to en-
counter q ragged boy fighting in the
street with the son Of the jew butcher:
but, his eyes beginning to grow dim. he
often passed without recognizing him.
One day, however, Hall, breathless and
bleeding, ran up and took refuge behind
the skirts OF his mantle from crowd OF
savage urchins. Fadlallah was amazed.
and said, "Oh my son--for / think thou
art my son--what evil hath befallen thee,
and wherefore do / see thee in this

choked with sobs, looked up into his
face and said, Father, l am the son Of
the richest merchant Of Beyrout, and
behold, there is no one 30 little cared for

Fadlallah's conscience smote him, and
he wiped the boys bleeding face with
the corner Of his silk caitan, and blessed
him; and, taking him by the hand, led
him away. The merchants smiled be-

Sl99,566, being an increase Of 1900 over the
earnings for March last year.

The government has accepted the Mexican
Central railroad from Ei Paso del Norte
for this road has reached Celaya, north OF
this city"
The Denver and Rio Grande Railroad
Company is exerting every energy toward
the completion OF its Utah extension and
promises TO have the road open to Salt Lake
City sometime next fall. II necessary to Sc
cure the construction OF this extension, work
on other projects will be suspended for the
time,
Articles Of Incorporation have been filed
at Austin, Tex, by the Marshall and North
western Narrow-Gauge Railroad Company;
capital stock, 5000, goo with right to increase.
The road Is TO run from Marshall to Mount
Pleasant, through Harrison, Camp, Morris and
Titus counties, and tap the Texas and ST.

FL Paso and White Oak Railroad Company
capital stock, S500000-to build and oper-
ate twenty miles of road between FL Paso
