u
Life.
To the city
Farmer Gritty,
= Plain, but gritty,
Came one day.
And he wandered,
And he pondercd,
Time he squandcred
On his way.
Thus while gazing
At amazing
Sights, and praising
AL he saw;
He was taken
Hand was shaken
By mistaken
Mr.. Shaw.
Who to rightit,
And requite it,
Him invited
To a smile;
And the farmer
To the former
Grow warmer
Friend the while.
Soon clated,.
And Inflated
Gritty waited
For the deal;
When some aces
Showed their faces
Two hard cases
Made him squcal.
In the city
Stood the gritty
Farmer Gritty
Cursing all.
Not a penny
OF the many
Had he, any
More to call.
Home returning
Through the burning
Sands, aud learning
How to tramp.
Spouse she took him
And she shook him
Grit forsook Kim,
And she wouldn't believe

apart Of England and France after
years OF close alliance Is one OF the
curious phenomena OF European
politics. Only lately close friends
and no great while ago allied IN inter-
est in the East and In war against nus
STA, there IL to-day n cloud between
them, which has followed GOODNESS
that dates back to 1871. BISMARCK ~
charged with driving wedge between
them and drawing England towards
Germany, and in order to counteraet
the tendency Of France to find aid In
Russia for her schemes of vengeance
against Germany. Great men are not
unfrequently charged with that which
the natural course OF events
have wrought for them. When
England failed to lend aid
to France in the Franco-Prus-
sian war IL was predicted by some
that this act would end in the es-
arrangement of these two nations.
France was not pleased when England
committed hersels to the German-Aus-
trian tendency as TO tile Eastern ques-
ton, which was an important step.
Notwithstanding the impression
which has always prevailed, Of good
feeling between France aud England,
they have been gradually drifting
apart for many years, and Germany
has looked on this with evident salts
faction, though she has not taken any
active hand in it, unless through the
personality of BIsMARCK's aversion to
France and over which he must now
rejoice. a feeling of eDmity between
two great nations like France and
England must surely result In some
thing serious sooner or later unless the
breach Is mcnded, and the disadvant-
ages which fall TO the share Of the
former la case Of any conflict, must be
suiliciei tly apparent to cause uneasi-
ness to the republic.

The President OF the German Diet.

Law and usage have united to give
the President of the Diet n position
widely different from that of the
speaker in England or America.
His powers are In some respects more,
in others less, extensive. He appoints
no committees, and therefore without
that opportunity TO reward friends
and influence legislation. He can with
difficulty create presidents by his
rulings, and contributes little to the
body of parliamentary law. Even his
powers of discipline and police
are to Il considerable extent
shared by the viCe-presidcnts and
the secretaries, who are consulted in
every serious crisis. But on the other
hand he has no little influence in shap.
ing the course of debate through the
practice, which may be, but seldom il,
contested, of liking the order OF the
day, or programme of busine.s Of each
session. The ratio OF ambitious ora
tors is much smaller In II German than
IN IN American parliament Precc-
dcnce is less anNl0usly considered !,
time counts ioHless; and there IL less
wrangllng over points of order
aud procedure. a debate is a
very formal affair, the names of
| those who desired TO speak being com
monty submitted TO the chair la nd
vance, and by him arranged into n
convenient succession of JlrG and con-
trttS, who follow one another with de-
pressing regularity, much like boys in
n village lyceunI, La general il may
be said that while in Germany, IA in
America, the speakership is Il marx
OF party confidence, il Is not owing Ia

During the year 1883 1t is safe to say
more pastures will be enclosed in
Texas than during any previous year.
As our correspondent at the Panhan-
die recently said, "Line riders and the
round-ups will be of the pastn--some-
thing to be remembered as the glori-
GUS times when the range was free and
every man rustled to gather his own,
in the best organization that ever was
amongst men, the rounding system.
Wen, the time has not yet come fol
the roundup to disappear entirely.
neither has the drive stopped, yet there
are indications plainly visible on the
map of Texas that the time is at hand
when both must 80 West and further
West until the outside is no more.
The formation of so many compa-
MES, not of foreign capitalists, but
amongst the old pioneers of the cattle
business, means distinctly that the
range is being secured and that the
expense of fencing has been faced. met
and decided. AS the Texas Live Stock
Association, in n resolution at their
last meeting at Austin, said. ""The
stock business can only reach its
hlShest state of improvement
or development inside of en-
closures, so has the improve
ment been decided on and the march
began. The formation of stock com,
panies by ranchmen and the consolida-
tlon OF stocks has no greater advantage
than that of enabling them to fence in
their lands cheaply, and the more it is
looked at the wiser the policy seems.
