ALONE,

miss you. my darling, my darling:
The embcrS burn low on the hearth;
And Stillcd is the air of the household,
And huShed is the voice of its mirth:
The rain FLASHES fast on the terrace,
The winds past the lattices moan;
The Midnight chimes out from the minister
And / am alone
want you. my darling. my darling;
am tired with care and with fret:
! would nestle in silence behind YOU
And all hut your presence forget
In the hush of the happiness given
TO those who thro trusting have grown
To the fullncss of love in oontcntmcnt;
But am alone
call you, my darling, my darling,
Ny voice echoes back on my heart
i stretch my arms TO You in longing
And To- they fall empty, apart
j whisper the sweet words yGu taught me-
The words that we only have known,
Till the blank OF the dumb air is bitter.
For i am alone.
i need you, my darling, my darling,
With its ycarning my very heart aches;
The load that divides us weighs harder;
l shrink from the jar that it makes
Old sorrows rise up to beSet me;
'ld doubts make my spirit their own
oh, come thrO the darkness and save me,
EOr am alone.

half way to the top of the mast, freez-

GLIMPsEs OF THE MOON.
What Reporter Saw Looking Through q
Big Telescope.


The other night little party from Detroit
including News man, paid flying visit to the
Ann Arbor observatory. Prof. Harrington hap
pened to be busy, but his assistant. John NJ
Schaeberle who had been behind the scenes
and was rs well acquainted with the stars as q
theatrical manager, proved capable substitute
Under the dome which revolves easily upon
cannon balls, hangs the fine telescope with which
Prof Watson discovered twenty additions to our
own system-a service that entitled 10 to the
feeling of almost reverence with which we APP
preached it. Bringing the moon into focus, Mr..
Schaeberle remarked:
'The eye-piece gives only 140 dameters, but
have one that nagnifcs 450 diameters"
when the Lick telescope is completed, with
its thirty inch glass, California will have tho
largest telescope in the world. But here is the
moon, a great deal better in the first quarter
than in the full, for a telescope object"
"Why?"
when the moon is full there is too much
light, and the surface shows fiat and white,
without the relief now seer. Do you see those
bright spots along the ragged edgel'
YES; if you mean those particles separated
from the moon, all along near its edge, but out
in the dark What are they?T
Those are the mountain tops, lofty enough for
the SUBMITS to take the sun, while their bases
are yet in shadow. The sun is just rising TO
them"
Cant you show me something more distant
than the moon!
'Yes, everything in the heavens is more dis
tant than the moon. The $50, 900 miles to tho
moon is hardly large enough to express the least
division upon the scale needed to measure the
sky. Twice this distance, the diameter of
the orbit of the moon is but go, 900 miles. The
diameter of the sun is 100000 miles, aud the
majority Of the stars we can see are suns which
emit their own light, while the planets with
which they are undoubtedly surrounded, but
which give only a reflected light, are invisiblel"

General Dix Puts on His Uniform.

George T. Williams, in October Century.
In some regiments the discipline was so strict
that men on post as sentinels were on the alert
to discover any delinquency of their superiors.
At Federal Hill. Baltimore, Colonel (afterward
General) Warren gave orders to his Zouave
guards that only officers in uniform were to be
admitted into camp. One bright Sunday morn
ing in August 1861, General Dix, who com
manded the troops guarding the city walked over
from Fort McHenry attired in an old linen duster,
instead of the brass buttOned and velvet-cuffed
coat belonging to his rank Attempting to pass
the line of sentIies, in company with an aide,
the old general was amused at finding mus
ket barring his passage, while the aide, with
his glittering shoulder-straps was permitted to
enter.
But don't you see that this is General Dix
exclaimed the aide, angriy
"Well, between you and me, Major said
the Zouaye, his eyes twinkling with amusement,
Il see very well who it is, but if General Dix
wants to get into this camp, he had better go
back and put on his uniform"
You are quite right sentry" remarked the
General. I'm go back and get my coat
An hour afterward the General in full uni
form, approached the camp, and, allowing the
guard reserve to be called out, accepted the sa-
Lutte due his rank and position and the incident
increased his admiration for the entire command

ANCIENT RUINS IN MEXICO.
Description of Wonderful Pyramid in So
NORA.
Chihuahua Enterprise.

description OF a w OnuertuI Pyramid III So
Chihuahua Enterprise.
Ancient ruins have recently been discovered
in Sonora which, if reports are true, surpass
anything of the kind yet found on this CONT
nent. The ruins said to be about four
leagues southeast of Magdalena There is one
pyramid which has a base of $50 feet and
rises to the height of $50 feet There is wind
ing roadway from the bottom, leading up an
easy grade to the top, wide enough for car
riaees to pass over, said to be twenty three
miles in length. The outer walls of the road
way are laid in solid masonry huge blocks of
granite in rubble work, and the circles are as
uniform and the grade as regular as they could
be made at this day by our best engineers The
wall is only occasionally exposed, being covered
over with debris and EARTH and in many places
the sahuaro and other Indigenous plants and
trees have grown up, giving the pyramids the
appearance of mountain. To the east of the
pyramids short distance is a small mountain,
about the same size, which rises about the same
height, and, ifreports true, it will prove
more interesting to the arch@ologist than the
pyramid.
There seems to be heavy layer of species of
gypsum about half way up the mountain, which
is as white as snow, and may be cut into any
conceivable shape, yet sufficiently hard to retain
its shape after beng cut. In this layer OF stone
a people of au unknown age have cut hundreds
upon hundreds of rooms, from 6Xl0 to 16Xl6 feet
square These rooms are cut out of the solid
stone, and so even and true are the walls, floor
and ceilings, so plumb and level, as to defy vari-
alton. There are no windows in the rooms. and
but one entrance, which is always from the top
The rooms are about eight feet high from floor
to ceiling the stone is so white that it seems al
most transparent, and the rooms are not at all
dark.
On the walls of these rooms are numerous
hieroglyphics and representations of human
beings cut in the stone in different places. But
strange to say, all the hands have five fingers
and thumb, and the feet have six toes Char
coal is found on the floors of many of the rooms
which would indicate that they built fires in
their houses. Some implements of every de-
scrption are to be found in and about the rooms
The houses or rooms are one above the other to
three or more stories high, but between each
story there is a jog or recess the full width of
the room below, so that they present the APP
pearance of large steps leading up the noun
tains.
Who these people were, what age they lived
in, must be answered, if answered at ALL "by
the wise men of the East Some say they were
ancestors to the Mayas, a race of Indians who
still inhahit southern Sonora, who have blue
eyes, fair skin and light hair, and said to be a
moral, industrious and frugal race of people,
who have written language and know some
thing of mathematics,

snow-ropped Mountains.

When in Italia's land of summer days
THE land of wine, and mirth, and vintage lays
Where yellow nets of subtle, flny haze
Weave in and out of light their mystic mazei
Where warm winds hide and sweet-faced sunshine
plays
With roses like blood spilled DER all the ways,
The zone of scenes and seasons perfect taste,
Where sweets run riot in delicious waste,
When in this land of beauteous surprise,
Unto the Authors face we turn our eyes,
We see him browning lofty peaks of snow
And marvel that which sets the pulse agiow
In kindling red and swift resistless flow
OF life should food the hills and all below
With light that's shed from brow of cooling snow.
So, when we sit in life's warm vintage sun,
When grapes are gathered and the work is done.
And we remember not by days the sign
That hath unto us brought the ruby wine,
When in that time of summers open tide,
If we but turn our thoughts and backward glide
TO see whence comes this perfectness of lights,
Wen look to icy sleeps of Alpine heights,
Where faltered feeble limbs weary nights
But when morn rose, we saw that life was good,
And pain forgot, as loyal subjects should,
And blessed the King without whom we should be
Sitting in darkness, beside an autumn sea.
