LONDON, September 27th.-The Daily Chronicle
has issued postscript stating that there is great
excitement in Dublin, owing TO a rumor that
Orangemen had shot Parnell. There appears to be
some truth in the report at any rate it is certain
that Parnel is wounded. 1t is stated that the bull
let went through his body. Another account says
the affair was accidental. No further details have
been received. A dispatch from Dungannon states
that covered car, containing supposed Parnellites'
was fired into, but the occupants were not hurt
This probably explains the rumor that Parnell has

First that practically actual settler can get tie

$500 for his fleet footed bovine. The
,lf is nearly 1879 hands high: his legs
are like those Ot !! giraffe, and his horns
are tipped with Eickel-piated knobs.
Colonel Burns bought the calf when a
yearling from an Indiana farmer, who
was driving the split hopf trotter to

with ease. The calf Is of plebelan

stood trembling against the outside

How strange are she freaks of fancy
The lessons Of life We forget.
While trifie, trick Of color,
Ia tie wonderful web IS set
Set by some mordant Of fancy.
And despite the wear and tear
OF time or distance or trouble.
Insists on its right to be there.
A chance had brought Us together:
Our talk was Of matters, of course:
We were nothing. one tn the other.
Bu. short half hour resource.
We spoke OF French acting and actors
And their easy, natural way
Oi the weather, for II was raining
As We drove home from the play.
We debated the social nothings
Men take such pain 20 discuss;
The thUnderous rumor OF battle
Were silent the while for Us.
Arrived at her door, We left her
With drippingiy hurried adieu.
And our wheels Went ccunching the
gravel
OK the oek-darkened avenue
Az We drove away through the shadow,
The candle she held IN the door
From rain vanished tree trunk - tree
trunk
Flashed fainter, and flashed no more
Flashed fainter and wholly faded
Before We had passed the wood:
But the light of the face behind it
Went with me and stayed for good.
The vision Of scarce moment.
And hardly marked at the time,
1t comes unbiddeu TO haunt the.
Like scrap of ballad rhyme.
Had size beauty? Well, not what they
call so:
fou may find a thousand as fair,
And vet there's her face IN my memory,
With no special right to be there.
As | sit sometimes in the twilight.
And call back to life in the Goals
Old faces and hopes and fancies
Long buried-good rest 10 their souls.
Her face shines out of the emoers;
| see her holding the light,
And hear the crunch of the gravel.
And the sweep Of the rain that night.
lis face than can never grow older,
That never can part with Its CLEAN;
lis gracious possession forever,
For what il il all but a dream!
