No blade is stirred, no banner ia unfurled,
In conscious field or wood;

I seemed to see mess niger draw near,
whose errand was not good.

The one deemed beset with perlls sore,
Close by me, smiling, stood.

The heart in me should be so wondrous light
SO sweet each moments breath;
Assurance kind sreets me from every star;
The all-gathering breeze, that hastens from afar,
How glad thing It saith
That was the night my friend beyond the seas,
within tent beneath the olive trees,
Turned his blue eyes death.

SEVEN hundred thousand acres in India
are devoted to the raising of opium. The
natives were compelled at first by the gov
eminent of india to cultivate the poppy
from which it is made, and the govern
ment derives an immense revenue from it.
The whole eastern world is suffering ter
ribly from this curse inflicted by the fore
most nation on the earth. Not only the
eastern but the western world is feeling
the sad effects of the vice of opium-nsing.
1t is said that twenty thousand people in
this country are the victims of the opium
habit. From the last annual report Of
the bureau of statistics there were thirty
thousand pounds more opium imported
than in the previous year, and our govern
ment received more than half million
dollars duty on it, and we are all partners
in this internal revenue business. Chris.

Heaven. He is visited every Sunday by a
colored minister, and sometimes by band of

Miner is confident that the full penalty of the
law will be meted out to him, and, when asked
about the matter, invariably replies, "The
Lords will be done" The murder for which
Miner was convicted was one of the most re-
voting on the criminal annals of the district.
He literally hacked his wife to pieces with a
razor, and made no attempt to escape when
the officers approached. The general impress
sion in South Washington, whore the crime
was committed, is that Miner was temporarily
insane, us his character had been very good

DISAPPOINTING.
TnY MADELINE D. MOTION. !

TRY MADELINE D.. MORTON.
From the New YoHK MERCURY,
We met al the ball-it matters not where
And | met "A mishap, too-in meeting this
fair
And I fell deep in love, a sad thing for me,
A. my heart it surrendered when her did
see.
lIei eyes were like %violcts, mischievous
blue,
Twin stars they did shine, the clouds
pccping through
When they glanced out from meath their
silken cover,
1t gecmcd as if sunlight was g~linting all
over.
Her mouth (my own watcrs) don't ASK me,
pray,
Twas the sweetest of mouths, that's all
can say
Her lips were moist, rich, ripe, stepped in
rosy dew,
A delicious pink rosebud with honey wet
through.
Her teeth like the snowdrift in winters
cold bowers,
They glimmcrcd like glowworms amid
summer flowers
Her mouth when she laughed was a caskct
opc'd wide,
The pearls glcamin brightly from the rosy
inside.
When she sang, twas a cage with a red
bird inside,
That 80 warbled 'twould nightingale's mu-
sic dcridc;
Her hair hung in ringlcts with Il negligent
air,
Trailing over her shoulders so dazzlingly
fair.
Every ripple and tangle seemed slyly to
say
Don't you think | am pretty? Come kiss
me, | pray :"
Each frolicsomc curl seemed creeping
down low
To kiss that fair bosom that rivals the
snow.
For lightness her foot was that Of the lamb
For whitcncss her hands would have borne
off the palm;
They were claspcd, too, and folded, hel
sweet head down bent,
With indolent languor and careless con
tent.
And kind was the heart that was beating
below,
To keep itself warm in that temple of snow
From her presence the sweet balm of heav-
en- did rise,
And brought back to eatrh our long lost
paradise.
''The next time l meet the fair siren
thought |,
"Tn disclose to her father the truth or II
die,
For to live without her would be sadncs,
indeed,
so to win the dear angel I'll propose will
all speed"
After long hours of waiting | met the deai
girl
Her manner so charming set my head in
whirl;
Her kind smiles entranced me, and sooI
sealed my fate,
And claspcd her pink fingers with hear
hope clatc.
Introduce me-" I said, "to your mos
worthy sire,
The old specialized gentleman next to thu
fire "
She looked in surprisc-and she laughed
in great 9lcc-
THAT old gentleman there is my hus
band!' says she.
