From all parts pf the Territory come reports Of no rain, and that crops and grass are suffering for want of water. Clouls are tO be seen on all sides, but tLcy yield no rain. As it Is m tHis sec tinn, heavy storms threaten tn delupe tie earth; the lightniags flash viyidly aud ometlmes with an apparent reck- .es-usss, and the ihguder reverberates from mouutIIn to mountain, and yet the only result k heavy gusts of wind carry log clouds Cf dust Wiih it. In isolated spot. a small amount of raiu has fallen, but its effect has been ephemeral and local. Strckmen say the pasture IS growing very short. and a good, dreuch- ing ram Is anxloHsly looked for. It does look little strange that so many disastrous washoUts have occurred this season with such light rHirfali. but ;te fact IS, the wash0uts have been oc- caSIonCd Ly the melting of the unusual ly heavy SHOWS m ,he mount ius to the north. and not to summer ?. ius.

THE EDITORS WIFE,


When the editor comes from the Office at
night,
At very late hour, IN q dubious plight,
The impression prevails, and the story is told,
That an editors wife can be Away cajoled
With f1b about bridges" and broken down
'press"-7
But we who have been there are free to confess
That when husbands are late and suspicious
are life,
It is best to own u, to the eGitGr's wife.
But, all iestlng aside since l dimly surnise
That the ladies regard me with sinister eyes
Who more than the wife of our bosom deserves
The sweet veneration her beauty preserves.
And the years may so by and our heads may
grow white
Her beauty is ever pure and az bright
As when she faced poverty, sorrow, and strife,
And blessed our estate as an editors wife.
You may drink TO your trade and your crea-
lures oil fame
raise not my glass till hear her sweet name,
'Tis to her who alone uncompi iainipgly bears
The all of our sorrows and most of our cares
Whose wealth Of sweet influence subtly in
spires
Our grandess achievements and noblest de-
81 es---ar-7 -7r--'a'-' ssT-er--- '~--
'Tis TO her I wou;d drins--our companion in
life
Gods best inspiration the editors wife,

all who gave it any attention will think I
builded better than | knew in LAYING the
foundation for some fun, and narrative
in which, if at all able to do Justice to the
subject, may be able to contribute some
thing to the amusement Of your patrons.
Permit me to say, that not having been a
participant, and relying entirely on what l
have gathered from the gossip of some who
were, will not vouch for perfect accuracy.
FAY, unhestatingly, that every word is
penned in perfect good bumor, with no in
tent to tread on any ones toes, wound any
one's sensibilities, or do the slightest in
justice, to the feelings of the humblest in
dividual who took part.
Our eyes caught a paragraph few DAYS
ago, 10 one of the papers, headed ''the
greatest discovery of the age" in which
any one can be his own photographer, and
illustrate what he designs. 7 confess to re-

But she heeds not the charmer. the snarl ont

Her thoughts are on me and of love.
Her smile SO bewitchin' lights parlor and

For she sunshine both upstairs and down;
All bustling and busy, is Bonnibelle Lizzie,
The best little wife in the town.
She's too true to her labors to gossipewith
neighbors,
With greeting she passes them all;
And the women that always are whisperin' in
Railways
She shuns, for their talk is too small;
ith affairs of Miss Prattle and Dane Grr ndy
Tattle,
With the names of poor Jones, Smith. or
Brown,
Coming mischief they're busy, but not so with
Lizzie.
The best little wife in the town.
When her tins, bright IL in, like silver are
shinin',
And the kettle is singin' for tea.
You'll find her a-sittin' ard quietly knittin',
Awaitin' the comm of ne;
Aud the thoughts 80 besuilin, the dinples go
smIlin'
The plump rosy cheeks up and down
Still her fingers are busy, no dreamer is Lizzie,
The best little wife in the town.
When finish my daily long tasks 1 sing gaily:
"From the toll of the bench, love, I'm
freeu'
flies before
To her who is watchin' 1or me.
1 steal In behind her, with strong hands bind
her,
My queen OF the calico gown;
The lit lie hands busy, 1 clasp and Kiss Lizzie,
The best little wife in the town.
