THOU hast all seasons for thine own,
0 roller skates. Like the shadow of
a summers cloud thou driftest away
into space, and leavest US standing
on our devoted head, or any other
place not occupied by ore of thy de-
voices. Thou knowest our down sit
tings and our up risings, and all Of
our weak and tender spots. In the
rumbling of thy wheels there is no
apparent guile, but thy dissemblings
are varied, voiceless and numerous.
When we reach for thee thou are not
there, but hast climbed the inner pan
falcons like unto the Celtic flea, and
we wouldst not. Thou art a quaver
and double semi-quaver, all in one
heap, and the novice who thinks he
has the on the hip reckst not of his
own underpinnlng. Thou oldest into
the battle like sucking dove, but in
variably cometh out on top. Sweet
contentment dwelleth in thy springs,
and all thy movements are graceful.
TO ride on thy curveting wings seems
as easy as the falling off a log, but to
a man who wears an acre of porous
plaster on his shins and other places
too numerous to mention, thou art
delusion and double barreled snare.
We wot not of thee nor thy kind, not
much, Mary Ann = Elk.

SENATOR INGALLS,, of Kansas, De-
cember 9th, introduced bill in the
Senate to repeal both presumption and
timber-culture laws. Ingalls, influence
in the Western delegations, where he
has been recognized as a leader, with
the combined efforts of Eastern men,
who have never favored them very
much, together with favorable reports
from government land officers at the
capital, lead us to believe that sufficient
pressure will be brought to bear to re
peal these laws, and in view of these
probabilities, all those who have not
exercised their rights by virtue of these
acts. would do we'll to avail themselves
of the same at any early date, as the
opinion is generally prevalent that the
presumption and timber-culture laws will
be repealed at this session of Congress.
