A COMPANY has been formed by New York
and Chicago men to ship dressed beef from
Omaha and building where cattle can be
slaughtered at the rate of 1000 day will be
put up Immediately. The great Strengthening
concern at Fort Worth, Texas, begins opera
tions soon, and already advertises for cattle,
offering to pay Chicago prices, less freight,
shrinkage and commission. This makes a
good thing for stock-raisers, and some think
that half the beef cattle that Texas has to sell
this year will be slaughtered in the state.

Shy but sincere-ingeniously incline,
And II l find you answer the conditions,
I'll take your bid and be your valentine.
know your worth-that is your general merit;
But when your mourned and wealthy father died.
Pray tell simple girl, did you inherit
His virtues only-or-a bit beside2
Yes, admire your lofty reputation,
Dear to my srtless spirit as my own;
But tell me this-to still my trepidaton--
Are you an owner in Bell telephone2
Your learning, too has bound my heart in fetters-
For you are wise, If street report be true;
I, too. childish fancy have for letters
I hope you're solid on " c. b. a. O."
Your noble presence" dignined and stately"
with inexperienced ardor adore
But those Willard stocks Have you tried em lately :
And were you long or short on that Lake Shore7
3d. gentle sir, If you Alright but read me,
And will with all your bonds and stocks be mine,
Then into mutual union you shall lead me-
And will be-your booming valentine.

1.-DecapitatiOn.
Wings, 1t is said I've taken,
And with them flown away,
Poor, lonely and forsaken
Are some once made gay.
And yet (explain the mystery
I'm neither bird nor bee;
In works Of natural history
No mentions made Of me.
I've neither beak nor feather,
do not sing nor talk,
I fly in every weather,
But am seldom said to walk.
Perform decapitation
(That is, my head remove);
A wondrous transformation
Ensues, as l will prove.
now have beak and feather,
And powerful wings have Il;
But with them all together
Was never known to fly
In works Of ornithology
There's much about me taught,
And so without apology
I'll cut this doggerel short.
