Nose and Character.

Prominence of the nose, by which we mean
its projection outward from the face, indicates
disposition to inquire, to observe, to learn,
with something of the quality known popu-
larly as ''inquisitiveness. People with such
noses are fond of making investigations
they are curious about that which is unusu-
al and strange; but a somewhat different
character is indicated in the Roman Con-
tour. The nose of Secretary Evarts, for in
stance, is indicative of postiveness, decision,
and assured reliance upon self. There are
phases of this outline which approach deform-
ity, and these cases indicate rather weakness,
in that the person may be over self-reliant,
may trust too much to his powers, and so de-
feat his ends. We think the nose relates
more to the physical forces in the 0rganiza-
ion than to the intellectual development. al
though we usually trace relation between
fpely-cbiseled nasal organ and symmetry
and refinement of mental development.

MY BURIAL PLACE.

A tree shall be my monument,
An elm grown great and gnarled and old
Its mighty dome be DER me bent,
Its roots my form enfold.
Then back to earth I shall not melt,
But, drawn into its very blood,
Climbing throughout Its frame, be felt
In bole and branch and bud.
And when beneath the winter sky,
II wildly swings Its empty arms;
And bitter winds go kissing by,
And blindly drift the storms:
safe folded In the conscious buds,
VIII ] keep watch upon the sun;
And listen for the loosening floods:
And hear the changes run;
Until the quickening pulse of spring
Beats through the mighty tree;
And then its Iusty veins shall bring
A thrill Of life to me.
And at n thousand points Of green,
VIII look on the world again,
And out In sun and air will lean.
Yea, even speak TO men.
All me, a fond, foolish thought
For what to me are sun aud airY
The tree, the world shall fall to nanght;
50, lay me ans nywhere.
Aye, anywhere, for what may care
The winged ana FURNISHED dragon hy.
Whose home Is all the summer air,
For armor long cast-by?
will not seek to creep once more,
Within this narrow life and cold,
When life eternal sweeps before
And heavenly gates unfold.
This heavy atmosphere Of strife
] will not care to breath again,
But, leaning out from golden life,
With pity look on men.

There is serious concern lest the partial
wheat failure of last summer is to be fol-
lowed by failure of the great winter crop
of the Northwest--pine lumber. The open
winter and lack of snow has made il diff
cult to get logs out in the woods TO the
banks of the streams, and the warm
weather of last week has made such i'm
perfect roads as were constructed impas-
sable. The Mississippi Valley lumber
men on Saturday declared that a very Sc
rious deficit in logs must be expected.
Estimates of the winters work range from
40 to GO per cent of the amount counted
on at the beginning of the season.

drowned by hundreds, barns have been

but have its effect in cramping their facil-

On motion of Mr.. Hoar the bankruptcy
bill was set for consideration the 10th of

At the close of the morning hour the Sen
ate took up the bill reported BY Mr.. Ed
munds from the committee on judiciary to
prevent government officers and employees
from collecting from or paying to each other
money for political purposes.
Mr.. Beck offered substitute to the bill
introduced by him on the 18th of Dec. for
the same general object, but prohibiting gov
eminent officers and employees from con-
tributing money for political purposes to any
person. whether government officer or en-
ployee or not.
Mr. Edmunds opposed the amendment.
Mr.. Beck said the committees bill was no
improvement on the Law of 1876. The only
remedy for the evil would be the prohibition
of all political contributions by office holders
to any person, whatever.
