CTSCER'S LAST CHARGE.

William Ludlow.
His name with age
on History's page
Shall shine with greater glory,
And baTds shall tell,
How Custer fell,
And sing his thrilling story.
Ger the billowy breast
OF the savage West
His bugle echoes fioated;
And the troopers all,
At the martial CALL
Sprang light to the task denoted.
Meath the noontide heat
Went the trampling feet,
Nor darkness stayed the column,
To the valley deep,
Where the red men sleep
Rv the Big Horn, wild and solemn.
With sudden fash
The sabres flash
What though the foe outnnmber,
So the field be won
Ere set Of sun
And the night owl wake from slumber.
But the camp outspewed
Its savage brood,
And the locust swarm, expahuihs,
Was blast from hell,
That whitening fell,
The lives Of all demanding.
The ensanguined sun,
When the day was done,
Went down in crimson glory;
And the pale moons beams
Flung silvery CLEANS
In the eyes of cOrpses CORY.
To the field of death
Came the night winds breath
O'er the silent prairie creeping,
And wailing loud,
Drew the battle shroUd
From the forms with Custer sleeping.
Like a mighty shield
Lay the smitten field,
Its bloody blazon bearing,
And the stars grew dim
At the legend grim
Stamped deep by human daring.
While a soldiers fall
At his country g call
Shall on his name shed lustre.
The tongue of men
And poets pen
Shall tell the tale of Custer.

Electrician
The value of the telephone patent is
enormous, and we very much doubt If it
could now be purchased for S25,OO0,OO0. 1t
is probably by far the most valuable single
patent which has ever been issued.

HER GIFTS.
ANNIE NJ. LIBBY.

ANNIE NJ. LIBBY,
What did she give?
Scant store of gold she gave to church or poor
She bought with wealth nor piety nor fame.
Her foot scarce crossed the threshold of her door,
A plaything 10 the childish world, her name
She never gave.
What did she give
She gave TO greedy Toll her tender hands,
That other palms his roughened grasp might
shun;
Alone she trod Pains dreary desert lands,
That other feet in pleasant paths might run.
All this? Aye! more.
What did she give?
She gave up blessed Love for others sake;
Desire she kissed and bid goodbye. Joy,
Grace
Her side forsook; her tryst with hope she brake,
And turned to Poverty a smiling face.
Yes, more than this.
What could she moreo
Yes, one thing more She left at last her ways.
Unhindered now her patient feet might run
To bear to undeserving hands the praise
None could do more.
Life hath no more.
No more dear heart, is thine to give. Thine all
Is Gods. and on His altar laid His rod
And staff are thine. They only wait thy call
All no thy hand doth hold them fast Thy
Himself gives thee.
