Happiness.

"What didst thou say to Happiness
1 saw her at the gate"
This I said to Happiness,
Thou comest all too late;
Nayl l cannot let thee in,
Where these graves are growing green.
'Ts't meet-thou thyself shall say
That where my dead repose
Thou shouldst hold thy revels gay,
Thou shouldst wear tho rose?
Nsyi l will not let thee in, -zrs
Where these graves are growing green.
"Turned she round little space,
Smiled and softly said,
Il would even ask place,
There above thy head,
To plant flowers, myrtle and rose,
Making fair their last repOse.'
$50 she entrance gained at last;
How could gainsay
Such request2 Ny tears fell fast,
But she won her way;
And the rare, upspringing flowers
Wreathed to glorious summer bowers.
''She has won my grief fromme,
Wherefore, then, complain
Made my place of graves to be
Bright with hope again,
And Obeying each behest,
Joyfully serve my guest"

Cure for Hog Cholera.

The Lewiston On. Gazette publish,
es the following:
The hest way is to make pile of
corn on the cob, efectually seorch it,
and then give affected hogs free access
to it. This remedy was discovered by
E. Z. Lock at the time his dstillery
was burnt in this county, together with
large lot of store corn, which was so
much injured as to be unfit for use, and
greediIy eaten by the hogs, several of
which were daily dying with cholera
After the second day not a single hog
was lost, and the disease entirely dis
appeared. The remedy has been tried
in number Of cases and has never
failed"
