THE TWO GLASSES,

There sat two glasses, filled to the brim,
On a rich mans table, rim to rim;
One was ruddy and red blood,
And one clear the crystal flood.
Said the glass of wine to the paler brother,
Let us tell the tales of the past to each other.
can tell of banquet and revel and mirth,
And the proudest and grandest souls on earth
Fell under my touch, as though struck by blight,
Where was King, for ruled in might
From the heads of kings have torn the CROWN
From the heights of fame have hurled men down:
have blasted many honored name;
i have taken virtue and given shame:
have tempted the youth with sip a taste
That has made his future barren waste.
For greater than King am
Or than any army beneath the skv:
have made the arm of the driver fail
And sent the train from the iron rail;
have made good ships go down at sea,
ana the shrieks of the lost were sweet to me,
For they said, Behold how great you be.
Fame, strength, wealth. genius before you fall,
For your might and power are over ALL
Ho! no! pale brother" laughed the wine,
Can you boast of deeds great as mne?''
Said the water glass g cannot boast
Of King dethroned or a murdered host,
But can tell of a heart, sad
By my crystal drops made light and glad
Of thirsts I've quenched, of brows I've laved,
OF hands have cooled and souls have saved;
] have leaped through the valley, dashed down the
mountain,
Flowed In the river and played IN the FOUNTAIN,
Slept in the sunshine and dropped from the sky,
And everywhere gladdened the landscape and eye
have eased the hot forehead of fever and pain;
i have made the parched meadows grow fertile with
grain;
] can tell of the powerful wheel of the mill
That ground out the -four and turned at my will;
l can tell of manhood debased by you
That lifted up and crowned anew.
cheer, / help, strengthen, and aid;
gladden. the heart of man and maid
set the chain-wne captive free,
And all are better for knowing me'
These are the tales they told each other
The glass of wine and paler brother
As they sat together, filled to the brim,
On the rich mans table, rim to rim.

SEED ADULTERATIoN.-Froma report on this
subject we make the following extracts. In
numerous samples of farm seeds examined by
Prof. Noble, or Tharand, saxony, the percent
age of pure seed was found to be only 59u Of
this SO per cent of pure seed, "only IS per
cent were capable of terminating" "Three
tons of seed sold as red clover contained two
tons of yellow clover" cheaper article "Old
seeds were renovated by boiling dyeing and
roasting Weeds were stained and used to adul-
terate expensive seeds. In Bohemia and else
where large factories for the manufacture of
seeds from quartz were running, with warehouses
at Hamburg and other commercial centres. The
quartz grains, colored to order, were selling for
$50 per ton, and were largely used to adulterate
clover" Men, women and children were regu-
larly employed in Bavaria and Austria to collect
from the roadsides and bitches seeds of weeds
and grasses of all kinds. These collections
were bought by agents. who shipped them to
England and elsewhere to be sorted, labeled and
sold" These statements regarding the veracity

We must therefore conclude that the beet
sugar industry is surrounded by much uncer-
tainty, and that we must look to the sorghum
cane for a supply of sugar outside of the semi
tropical range of climate. But although many
people are sanguine as to the success of this
cane, yet it must be confessed that but little has
of late been shown in this production beyond
what was known twenty years ago; that, how
ever, is no reason why further improvements in
the processes of manufacture may not be made.

FRUIT TREES AS SHADE TREES.-There are
many positions where trees are planted merely
for their shade and cooling influence in summer,
which could as well be occupied by useful
fruit bearing trees as by those which are
merely ornamental. 1t would not be pru-
dent to introduce fruiting trees in city streets,
or even in the avenues or roads through villages,
as they certainly would fare badly in such places.
But for bordering private avenues or roads in
private grounds they might be proftably intro
duced. An avenue of Black Tartarian cherry
trees, for example, would combine both the
ornamental and the useful in a superior degree.
So would a line of Buffum pear trees. Even for
grouping on lawns fruit trees may be introduced
so as to produce all the effects desired in the
way of ornament. One of the most effective
features we have seen was group composed of
five trees of the Lawrence pear on a finely kept
lawn. The Crab apples, Of which there are
many varieties, are beautiful, and of such mod
crate growth as to make them particularly
adapted for limited pleasure grounds. For iso-
lated specimens on lawn selections can be made
from the list of pear trees which will equal any
trees in beauty of form and foliage.

LONDON, October 18-A dispatch
to the Times from Dublin says: Not
only has the conference excited no
enthusiasm, but the assembly was
C imposed of elements as hetero-
genous as the programme was
multifarious. It was only the skillful
hand of the chairman that some
times prevented open rupture.
Dissention WAS shown clearly
enough in Parnell's opening state
ment and in Douett's prompt res
joinder, and the tone of bitter EN-
phasis wherein the latter spoke, be,
trayed the feelings of the man,
laboring under disappointment,
which he struggle to suppress.
A letter from Dublin states that
Mr.. Cassidy, delegate from Mans
chester to the Irish national con-
ference, was expelled with insults
and threats from that body, for
moving an obnoxious amendment.

with YOU ALWAYS"
BY MARIANNE BIRMINGHAM.

He said as he parted from them,
(Though they saw him not again,
10! am with you Away"
And after the loss and pain
They knew that his words were true
And do we not know it, too?
We sit and talk in the home place,
And then the heart is stirred
By the power of conscious presence
Or the thought of a whispered word
And we feel that one is near
Than all the rest more dear
Or alone in the summer weather
We wander away to the sea,
And listen awhile to the music
OF the wave songs dreamily;
Until we know by tone
That we are not left alone.
He comes when the leafy whispers
Of the trees are all we hear;
In the throng of the crowd the Master
With his silent step draws near;
Nothing can keep him away
From the place where his children stay.
o, glad are the hearts that know him,
n CHILLI anu ue6p content
Settles like peace upon them
Alter the storm is spent,
There is nothing left to fear
When the living God is near.
Then why do we yield to sorrow?
Why should we be afraid?
Life may be bright and happy
When the burdens on Him are laid,
Eow can we want friend?
Christ loveth still to the end.
