SO TO THY REST.
To RALPH WILDER, infant son of Mr.. and
Mrs. e. E Isaac.


Go to thy rest, fair child
Go to thy dreamless bed,
While yet so gentle, undefiled,
With blessings on thy head.
Fresh roses in thy hand,
Buds on thy pillow laid,
Haste from this dark and fearful land
Where flowers so quickly fade.
Ere sin had scared the breast,
Or sorrow walked the tear,
Rise to Thy throne of changeless rest,
In yon celestial sphere?
Because thy smile was fair,
Thy lip and eye so bright,
Because thy loving cradle care
Was such a dear delight,
Shall love, with weak embrace,
Thy upward wing detain?
MOI gentle angel, seek thy place
Amid the chcrub train.

matters in that city prior to his departure for

E. Huss and Charlotte Crabtree was published
in this city that the correctness of the story
was denied by several of Lotta's friends, as

RIVER IMPROVEMENT.
Wa at has Been Done On the Upper
Mississippi.

WASHINGTON, July 21-Maj Mackenzie,
engineer in charge of the river and harbor
improvements on the Upper Mississippi river
has submitted to the war department his re-
port of the work accomplished during the
fiscal year ending June 30. He refers again
TO the necessity of facilitating navigation
through the many bridges crossing the Upper
Mississippi He says action should be taken
which will either compel the bridge com
panies to do such work as is necessary or the
United States itself should carry out the
work. He thinks it useless to continue other
general improvements of the river and leave
undone the work which of all others is of the
first Importance. The report shows that for
work on the Dubuque bar SAL, 900 were ap-
propriated from 1876 to 1881. Only $3.50 was
expended during the year and Sl0,374 is
still available. On the ice harbor
at Dubuque $12 l59 was expended
last year: s., $40 is still available and $50 900
more will be required to complete the exist
ing projects. Nothing was expended on the
harbor at Rock Island $4,000 is still availa-
BILE, and the estimated amount requisite to
complete the work is $14,7 59 For the inn
provement of the Rock Island rapids 81, 100,
$50 has been appropriated Of this amount
81, ia remains unexpended: 81, $50 was spent
last year, and $13, 900 can be proftably ex-
pended before July l, 1885. The amount
that can be proftably expended from June
80, 1884, to July l, 1885, is estimated at S49,-
800, besides the unexpended balance Of $500
now on hand; S77,926 was used last year.
During the year S14,797 was expended in
improving Quincy bay; 1854, 100 will be re-
CURED to complete the work OF this
amount the engineer suggests that 900
be appropriated next winter For improve
ments from the Des Moines river to the
mouth of the Illinois river S615, 900 has been
appropriated; s108,052 was expended last
year, and balance of S144, APT remains.
The amount asked for use during the year
ending June 20, 1885, is 100000.
