The Letter From Over the Sea.
by MARY D. BRINE.

whether II be this gladstone day,
whose perfect beauty lies
IN n golden sheen on the oceans breast
n, Ncath the laughing summer skies,
whose sunbeAns gisten ana CLEAN and glance
M, MA The sleepy forest trees,
Wnllc the meadow grasses are hard at play
WIN tho fragrant frolllcsome breeze;
whether II bo the happy news
,r ms day has given 10 me,
lhls treasure my hand and heart hold fast,
Ids letter from over the sea-
oh, We asked my heart score OF times
why IL mas grown so gay,
whether because Of our precious gift,
Or because OF the gladstone day;
And my heart has questioned OF me us well
wherefore my lips should sing,
AND why TO my eyes persistently
Inc happy tears should cling;
ANA mere by the easement as stand
In the breath OF the flowers fair,
ANA the subtle fragrance OF clover bloom
Filling the summer air.
With the sunbeams kissing my brow and hair
Aud turning 10 shining gold
The words which come from over the sea,
The letter my band doth hold.
We answer each other my heart and l.
enough the day be fair and bright
Yet neither TO breeze, nor flower, nor sun,
Do we owe our sweet delights
"But only 10 this the precious gift
Which claims both heart and hand
And wooes ~ only love Gun WOO,
Love only understand"
And thus II Is that gladstone day,
With its Joyous azure skies,
Its golden shadows and merry breeze,
Seems perfect 70 my eyes.
We had not dreamed, my heart and /,
That there could such glndness be
As has come 10 us this summer day
In our letter from over the sea.
So shine, ye sunbeams, Rlisten and CLEAN,
Aud turn my letter 10 gold;
For hiding safe in Its own white folds
A dear old story Is told

Mr.. Tennyson and the Composer,

When a celebrated composer OF bal
lad music had set the May Queen" to
music there visited him one evening q
graceful gentleman in a camlet cloak,
who asked the composer to sing the
song. The musician explained that for
some reason he could not do so, and
then the stranger said;
But | am Alfred Tennyson, and |
thought that since you wrote the music
and wrote the words You might sing
it for me.
"But, Mr.. Tennyson, | cannot, for
you know | am under engagement to
-"
"Yes, know, but since you wrote
the music and wrote the words, !
should think you might sing 1t for me"
Finally the singer could refuse no
longer, and rs he sang he heard sobs be-
hind him. When he had finished the
stranger said, in voice choked with
tears;
"Ah, never knew before that could
write so beautifully"
He clasped the singers hand ana IN
a moment was gone

As ExemDlified i'm the Rural Districts
Of Missouri.

The amenities of journalism are not strictly
observed in the rural districts OF Missouri. The
Marble HILL Reflector refers to rival as follows
'The ignorant, contemplate, mean, sneakng.
cowardly, self important, low flung, dirty out
landish, backbiting. self styled politician dead
beat, whisky bloat, backwoods hummer, log
cabin child of misfortune beer inflated, big
headed, soft skulled, overrated swamp angel.
who claims to edit the swamp paper, thinks the
editor of the Reflector terribly ignorant. Let
him look at the twenty-seven mistakes in his
last issue; let him remember the 'blantant in the
issue before; and let him not forget that he used
'ardorous for arduous in leading local in his
issue of August o. Oh, you dirty whelp, you
poor, crawling, creeping viper; you dirty scum
of the dirty, sinking, sta9nated swamp; you
mean, big jawed, slab sided, knock kneed. bow
legged, bandered shanked pup; lost, as you are to
honesty. to principle, to justice, to common de-
cency; do you imagine you can rule Gods coun-
try-the hills Go back into the cesspool from
which yOuhave crawled and there remain. Don't
come out of your den to abuse respectable
people. Go to school, Kelly, and you may learn
something yet"
Kelly's reply is awaited with interest.
