i'm so he replied if it did not it would

him so he replied if it did not it would
take four or five years to get rich.
The weather rs well as the soil, clear
ly proved that this WIS never intended
for Il civilized country. Here it is the
middleo of December, and no cold wealth
er yet to speak of. One night, it is true,
we got about half IN inch of snow, but
it had all disappeared before noon next
day, and left the ground as barren look
ing as before. And then just think OF
Thanksgiving with the mercury up in
the sixties, and the people after gor-
mandizing on wild goose andother such
savage game, skalahooting over the
prairies like a pack of savages. l tell
you it is just awful. Every one knows
it is impossible to have q real, genuine
Thanksgiving without cold and snow,
or mud and rain, as we'll as roast turkey
and cranberry sauce, and this outlanish
country provided neither.
Another serious objection is the I'M
healthy climate. The prevailing dis
ease IS loss of appetite. Healthy, ro-
bust looking men Will sit down to a
meal and apparently seem to enjoy it,
but in half or three-quarters of an hour
their% appetites will be entirely gone.
Now really something ought to be
done, and quickly, to properly inform
the people and stop this everlasting
rush Of emigration 10 these barren
plains. T%rainloads after trainload
come pouring in, and nearly every de-
luded soul of them declares they "have
come to stay" 1t SHOULD be looked af-
ter as a matter of economy also. AT
the present. rate, within Il very few
years Dakota VIII have as many people
to the square mile as Ohio, and they
will want their nice houses, big barns,
schools, churches, public halls and all
s%uchthings, like they have il the States,
and just think what they will cost.
Now why can't they stay BACK where
they already have these thingsand save
that expense.
Another very important matter
should also lie taken into consideration.
If the tenant farmers in the East emf
CRATE to Dakota, the landowners there
will have to take theif SONS from col
leges, or baseball clubs, Or other educa-
tional institutions to work their farms,
or they will have to stay home and do
it themselves; and then who will hold
down dry goods boxes IN the villages
and discuss the tariff, talk politics and
save the country? Let the Eastern
press continue in the good work Until
the terrible delusion IN regard to this
Territory, that hangs like a horrible
nightmare over the people, is entirely
dispelled.-Bismarck journal.

THE BRIDAL OF DEATH.
BY VICTOR CARNEGIE.


Everybody was astonished when Fran
els Clavering relinquished his splendid
position in society and retired to the
country. Young, handsome, accom-
plished, brilliant in conversation and the
pOssessOr Of a princely fortune, Claver-
ing had reigned supreme in the gay
world. His grace, beauty and sparkling
wit won the love and admiration of Wo-
men, his skill in billiards, hOrsemanship,
shooting and all manly accomplishments
made him a favorite with the men.
The noble spirit of Francis Clavering
began to tire Of an unceasing round Of
dissipation and folly. He discovered, like
Byron, that life's enchanted cup sparkles
only near the brim; that pleasures.
which appear so fair and attractive to
the sight, turn, like Dead Sea fruit, to
ashes on the lips. He resolved to with
draw from the fascinating scenes where
he had fingered too long, and seek, in
the retirement of the country, that sweet
happiness which the gay world could
not give.
While contemplating this retreat,
Clavering received a sudden and terrible
blow. The lady upon whom he had Law
ished all the wealth of his warm and
generous heart-whom he had hoped to
be the partner of his joys and the con-
sOler of his sorrows, proved to be a mere
coquette-a light, giddy creature, who
changed her lovers as often as her laces.
This deep and crushing disappoint-
ment drove Clavering at once to the
country to lead
ga life within itself, to breathe without man.
kind"
He selected wild and picturesque
spot by the side of a beautiful river,
where, surrounded by all the charms Of
nature, he hoped,tO pass his days in sweet
tranquility. Clavering took possession
of his new home in the lovely month Of
June, welcomed by the merry songs Of
the birds and the laughing flowers.
In this delicious retreat Frank Claver-
ing entered upon new existence. He

British troops have ever come in contact.
/ have spoken of their courage, but 1t Is
the courage of tigers, and the mood in
which they have engaged in these battles
is the mood of wild beasts mad with fury
and thirsting for blood. Their battles
are battles in which quarter is neither
asked for nor given on either side. Both
at FL Teb and at Tamanieb boys of II
and IA years old rushed on, armed with
smear and club, like their elders. The
cubs instinctively showed fight as soon
as their teeth and claws grew. On the
morning after the battle wounded Arab
was found near the zereba by Col. Slade,
who brought him in. I saw him when
the doctors were attending him. He re-
ceiVed with british halEindifference
halfsatisfaction, the kind treatment to
which he was without delay subjected.
He glared in curiously absent manner
at the group of persons who, standing
around him, admired his 1.-the form, tall
stature, and fine eyes and features. A
piece of bread was given him. Hegnaw-
ed halfof it, and carelessly handed the
other half of it away. Had our captive
suddenly recovered his freedom and the
use of his limbs the very first thing he
would have done would be to bound at
the bundle of spears which a soldier had
collected from the field, seize one, and
thrust and stab right and left among his
benefactors until he himself should be
shot or cut down like a rabid dog. At
least ten men were killed on Thursday
in different parts of the field by wounded
Arabs or Arabs who pretended to be
dead. The last sight had of the zereba
where we were kept awake all night by
the Arabs was that of our captive being
conveyed to Suakim. He lay comforta-
bly, on stretcher which was borne by
! four of the crew of II. M. S. Euryalus A
strange partnership between ruthlessness
and humanity, savagery and civilization
and civilization was in the right 1t
was in the right; though we deemed it
necessary to Obliterate all traces of the
four great graves in which we reverent-
| ly laid the remains of the 120 heroes
! who too vainly shed their blood on that
ever memorial field. The graves have
been left level with the desert. The
chaplain and officers who attended at
the sad ceremony can, by marks which
they have carefully taken, identify the
spot, and we hope and believe that our
comrades will rest undesecrated and un-
disturbed in their eternal sleep.

THE PRODIGALs.
ERNEST M'GAFFEY.

When the roses of Summer where budding and
blooming,
Add the yellow wheat bent meath its burden of
gold,
The Prodigal Son came world-weary and tat
tered
To the home where his footsteps had echoed OF
old.
And they chung to his garments with tears and
ca esses,
Till the cup of his welcome ran over with joy.
And the flowers of love and forgiveness were
woven
In a blOssoming crown for the Prodigal Boy.
When the icicles hung from the caves and the
branches,
And the Winter winds moaned round the dwell
ings of men,
Forsaken and homeless, the Prodigal Daughter
Crept back to the home of her girlhood again,
But they turned her away in the storm and the
darkness
To the icy cold winds, and their chill, piercing
breath,
And the pihless curses that followed her foot
steps
Were fierce as the tempest and cruel as DEATH
The Current.

SWEET VISITORS.
BY N. P. WILLIS.

My mothers voice, how often creeps
Its cadence on my lonely hours
Like healing on the wings OF sleep,
Or dew on the unconscious flowers.
I might forget her melting prayer,
While pleasures pulses madly fly;
But in the still, unbroken air,
Her gentle tones come stealing by;
And years of sin and manhood flee,
And leave me at my mothers knee.
The book of nature, and its print
OF beauty on the whispering sea,
Give still to me some lineament
OF what have been taught to be.
Ny heart is harder, and perhaps
Ny manliness has drunk up tears,
And there's mildeW In the lapse
OF few miserable years;
But natures book is even yet
With all my mothers lessons writ.
have been out; at eventide,
Beneath moonlit sky of Spring,
When earth was garnished like bride,
And night had on her silver wings;
When bursting buds and growing grass,
And waters leaping to the light,
And all that make the pulses pass
With wild fieetness thronged the night
When all was beauty, then have 1.
With friends on whom my love is flung,
Like myrrh on wings Of Araby.
Gazed up where evenings lamp Is hung.
And when the beauteous spirit there
Flung over all its golden chain,
My mothers voice came on the air,
Like the light dropping of the rain;
And, resting on some silver star
The spirit of a Bonded knee,
I've poured a deep and fervent prayer
That our eternity might be,
To rise in heaven, like stars at night,
And tread living path of light.
