From Harpas Weekly
Dear little Dorothy, she is no more!
l have wandered worldwide from shore to Shore
have seen as great beauties as ever were wed,
But none can console me for Dorothy dead.
Dear little Dorothy how strange it seems
That her face is less real than the faces of dreams
That the love which kept true and the lips which
spoke,
Are more lost than my heart, which died not when
it broke!

REST oRBD VOICE.

Recently, just proceeding the
Hancock camp meeting, a number
of members of the church earnestly
entreased Bishop Pierce to preach a
sermon on particular subject, one
of vital interest to the general well
fare of the church. The bishop
himself impressed with the necessity
and Importance of complying with
their request, devoted much prayers
full thought to it, and engaged in
canstsnt prayer to God that He
would restore to him the use of his
voice for the day on which be was
to give the sermon. On Saturday,
the day before the Sunday on which
he was to preach, his voice was so
feeble as to be almost inaudible by
his friends Sunday morning, while
in the act of ascending into the pull
pit, one of the brethren asked him
if he thought he would have voice
and strength enough to succeed.
His reply was. 81 may not have
faith enough, but still have faith
that ! shall" He went through the
preliminary exercises of the days
devotions with evidently improved
vocal powers, and when he com
menced his sermon, to the delight
and establishment of the congrega>
ton, his manly and melodious voice
as of yore burst forth in oil its old
time matchless beauty and power,
and elOquently for two hours he Gu
his hearers attention. A
reliable gentleman heard him, and
states that Bishop Pierce during the
time looked as young and Vigorous as
he did twenty years ago, and that
his noble face glowed as if with the
light of holiness. Atlanta ConSt't~-

gracefully given by the dying man.
After her marriage the lady discov-
cred that her husband was a gam

Err. There we're plenty of seats in

aisle he looked sharply to the right
and left until he reached a pretty
girl who was sitting alone.
"Seat engaged, MissG' he asked,
with knowing wink.
"No,no, sir"
Down he pumped and braced
himself for the campaign. He was
a regular passenger, and held bis
Communication ticket in bis hand.

The regular passenger smiled
sweetly at the pretty girl, and put
up bis pasteboard out of which two

passenger, "you punched this twice.

Whoever heard of dog With the

boast of the novelty. The poor old
fellow has been bowling for a week
with neuralgia of the jaw, and when
his master, who is a thoughtful and
considerate surgeon IS we'll as an
artist, discovered the cause of the
CANNES grief, he set to work to ex
tract a whole row of decayed teeth
10 the dogs mouth. Now, this may
seem absurd to some very ignorant
people, but it is all true, and the
poor dog held his mouth open and
sat perfectly quiet while the teeth
were being drawn. And yet some

ADARING BURGLARY.

One of the most daring burglaries
was perpetrsted on Staten Island
Sunday afternoon, 10 the presence
of spectators, during which the
thieves carried off SIS, 900 in bonds,
$500 in gold and silver coin, a gold
watch and some plate. The family
were out driving, leaving the coach,
man 10 charge of the premises. To
him came running young man out
of breath, declaring that the wagon
had broken down half mile away
aud the coachman's services we're
needed at once. Selling a monkey
wrench the coachman started off,
when the young man, joined by two
others, entered the house, secured
the plander and walked off. The
neigbbors saw the whole perform,
ance, but supposiug the thieves to
be friends of the coachmau, had no
notion of what was actually going
on under their very noses.

A railway carriage painted inside
with the Balmain phosphorescent
paint is included 10 one of the trains
between London and Rotherhithe,
via the Thames tunnel. Although
only one half of the available space
of the carriage is painted, the phos'
phorescent light is quite sufficient to
enable the passenger to distinguish
small objects when passing through
the tunnel and, moreover, the light
is powerful enough to enable a per-
son to read the indication of an or.
binary watch.
