BALLAD OF A BRAVE CATTLE NAN.

,'~'-~'
By JOAQUIN MILLER.
Across the broad brown Texan hills,
With blossoms to our bronchos knees,
With singing birds by broken rllls.
We rode through seas of drowsy bees.
We talked The topici Guess. Why. SIR,

The other fourth he sleeps.

Behold yon happy, changeful dove.
Behold this day, all storm at morn,
Yet now It's changed to calm at SUM-.
Yea, all things change-the heart, the head,
Behold on earth there ls not one
That changeth not, said.
He drew glass, as if to scan
The plain for steers; raised 1t and sighed.
He craned his neck, this cattle man,.
Then drove the cork home and replied:
Is For twenty years forgive these taars)-
For twenty years no word OF strife;
have not known for twenty years
One folly from my wife.

That dark-browed. bearded cattle u:a?
He pulled his beard: then dropped Id place

And toyed with something shining there

To argue it at all.

THE BLIND MAN.


rBshold a blind mar! 10 learned dog hath he;
hut he hath gold, and stocks, and land III Zee.
Sharp are his wits; his optics clear and bright
As sound an eye as ever saw the A-Sht;
And vet not binder is the creeping mole
To Natures charms than is his sOrdld soul.
In truth, for him the world in light arrayed
Is little better than jungies shades;
And all the thousand charms OF Earth ana SKIES
Are blanks or blotehes in his bat-l1ke eyes.
In vain for him the morn. in beauty clad,
Trips oer the hills and makes the valleys glad;
In vain for him the yerdure OF the world,
Or radiant cloud-wreaths round the mountains
He sees no elories III The effulgent Sun,
Which. smll1ng eartnward when his course pe
run.
Bets ali the world agIow with tintings rare,
And crowns with splendGr all the heights OF AIR.
In vain for him doth Natures royal hand
Paint ali the zone with pictures rare ana grand;
Unheeded all the Autumn's matciIess dyes;
Unseen the suuaGrons of the Summer skies.
Star-gems, far cleaning from the depths OF
night
The mountains vastness, and the ocean
might
Or myriad flowers, sweet farorites Of God,
Which. ever smiling, deck the grateful sod
These wake no joys within his darkened mind,
His eyes they see; yet 10! the man is blind!

engaged in cementing cistern, put

Mr.. G. went down to see that it was
being done to suit him. The cistern
is about twenty feet deep, and the
scaffold was about fifteen feet from
the bottom. Mr.. Holcomb warned
Mr.. Collins not TO come down, as the
scafold wasnJt strong enough to
bear their combined weight, but Mr..
c. thought it would. When he went
down the scaffold gave way and pre-
cipitated them to the bottom, Mr. Fl.

one of his ankles badly strained and
was also badly bruised. Both
are laid up and suffering greatly; but
we trust they will be able to come out
before great while. Mr.. Collins
has had several narrow escapes here
tofore and it is wonderful that he has
not had broken bones, he being very
heshy and not over cautious about
climbing around.

by the death of their little Maud E.,
on the 18th inst.
For near fve years she had been
the light of her fathers family;
peaceable, gentle and kind, she won
the hearts of all who knew her. She
was intelligent for one Of her years,

for while, and then died away to
leave darkness upon the earth. God
gave her, and now He has taken her
to Himself. His purposes have been
met both in her life and her death.
Weep not, dear parents, bat strive to
see her again. TAYLOR.
