WHTHERED ROSES

Witbered rose leaves in an urn
Everywhere our glances turn,
Time old graves uncovers,
Many dainty, peifumed note,
Hands long cold once warmly wrote
Hidden here by lovers.
All! the manly hearts, now cold,
All. the mem ries, sweet and old,
This quaint room discloses,
All the warmth is chill to-day;
All the life has passed away;
Naught is left but roses
Roses. withered now and dead,
All their ancient sweetness fed
With their ancient splendor,
AS bend above, feel
A vague fragrance from them steal,
Like mem'ry tender.
Of their olden pleasant days,
When the suns rich golden blaze
Kissed the cheeks to glory,
All. the pain these mem'rieS give.
All the pain that one must live
When our life's sweet story
Holds no more the golden JOY!
OF what use the valued toy
When its charm is broken
Of our life when youth is Ger
Ofthe past which comes no more
Are these flowers the token.
When the sun has lost his light,
When the fall of winters night
Our autumn-tide o'erclCses--
Call we then the mem'ries sweet
Ofthosc vanished moments fleet
Ashes ofyouth's roses

whar Killed skobeIen.

New York, July 1.-THE belief that
Skobeleff was poisoned by Germans has
taken a firm hold of the popular mind
in Russia, and it will be difficult to
eradicate it. A medical examination
of the body made after death showed
~convincingly that Skobeleff's death was
due to apoplexy. Nothing suspicious
was discovered upon the woman in
whose company the general happened
to be, at the hotel, at the time OF his
death. This woman has been Temporal
rily detained by the police, but her re-
lease is certain.
Several high p%ersonages and officers,
charged with nihilism, were arrested
on the 9Th inst, at st. Petersburg, near
the building occupied by the secret ad-
ministration. The prisoners intended
to undermine the building by starting
from their lodgings.

New York, July 12.-That a ship
canal will be cut at some point in Cen
trail America or the isthmus to connect
with the Atlantic and Pacific, may be
assumed to be certain. If the matter
was ever in doubt before, 1t a be in
doubt no longer, since the closing of the
Suez canal by England, "a hours ago.
Where it can and shall be cut need not
now be discussed, but there can be no
better time than the present for letting
it be distinctly understood that where
ever or whenever any such canal is cnn-
structed, it will be put under the exclu-
sive protection, from the first, of the
United States, and free use of it by the
innocent m Of the world guar
anteed by the United States alone.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

The senate concluded its work on
the river and harbor bill this evening.
A bill which appropriates almost
twenty million dollars vas passed by a
vote of 80 to 10, and now goes to a con-
ference committee of the two houses,
which will probably agree to it almost
in its present shape.
1t is said the bouquet which Mrs.
Scoville ~endeavored to convey to Gui-
teau the day preceding the execution,
has been analysed and enough arsenic
found in it to kill a dozen men.
The house committee on Indian
affairs agreed to report f~avorably to the
house the bill making a provision for
the granting of lands in severalty to the
Umatilla Indians of Oregon.

1t is supposed that Egyptian troops

The town is reported to be almost
empty and believed to have been left to
low Arabs, possibly to Bedouins, to
