The weather hez got
SO blisterin' hot
That the branch an the in the south medder lot

Ez the aidge ov July
Witch, dogeared an ugly is turned t tn sky.
The air ez it blows
Crost tn rus'ln corn rows
Caroms out of ov tn corn an kisses my nose
Ware it hides in tn shade
Nv the dark shadders made
By the rim o my hat an it's scorched I'm afraid!
f tn sun he'd been filed
An all the dust piled
On top O tn tn t wouldn't git me more riled,
Ner make ez hot
Ez the weather we've got
An ur likely t have fur a year, likes not
Even bees, on the wing,
Hev got too hot t sting
You kin take all their honey an they wont do thing
Ner act a bid bad
Pears like they re too glad
To git help in unloadin to be very mad,
The clouds ez they fly
Crost the hot summer sky,
Squeeze back their tears an everythng's dry

Ike Yalton's Prayer.

crave, dear Lord.
No boundess hoard
Of gold and gear,
Nor jewels fine,
Nor lands, nor kline,
Nor treasureheaps Of anything
Let but a little hut be mine
Where at the hearthstone l may hear
The cricket sing,
And have the shine
OF one glad woman's eyes to make,
For my poor sake,
Our simple home place divine
just the wee cot-the crickets chirr--
Love, and the smiling face of her.
tpray not for
Great riches, nor
For vast estates and castle halls
Give me to hear the bare footballs
Of children DER
An oaken floor
New rinsed with sunshine, or bespread
With but the tiny coverlet
And pillow for the baby's head;
And, pray thou, may
The door stand open, and the day
Send ever in gentle breeze,
With fragrance from the locust trees,
And drowsy moan of doves. and blur
OF robin-chirps and drone Of bees,
With afterhusnes OF the stir
OF intermingling sounds, and then
The goodwife, and the smile of her
Filling the silences again
The crickets call,
And the wee cot,
Dear Lord of all,
Deny me not!
pray not that
Men trembe at
Ny power of place
And lordly sway
only pray for simple grace
To look my neighbor il the face
Full honestly from day to day;
Yield me his horny palm to hold
And I'll not pray
For gold
The tanned face, garlanded with mirth,
1t hath the kneliest smile on earth
The swart brow diarnonded with sweat,
Hath never need Of coronet.-
And so / reach,
Dear Lord, to thee,
And do beseoch
Thou givest me
The wee cot, and the cricket's chirr,
Love, and the glad sweet face of her!

Erie Dispatch.
A gentleman living in a village not thousand
miles from Erie, and not altogether unknown
here, buried his wife few weeks ago Recent
ly, so the story goes, he attended a dance and
mingled in the merry mazes of the waltz as long
as the man who welded the baton invoked sweet
strains from the fiddle. His business partner,
who never trips the light fantastic, was present
as spectator, merely. During the eveninga
lady said to the latter ''Why. Mr.. -, don't
you ever dance9" "Oh, yes sometimes" was
the reply, but out of respect to the memory OF
the wife of my partner, lately deceased, am
denying myself that pleasure on this occasion

in the case of Mr.. Joel Chandler Harris of this

He has gained in seven days seven pounds of

Of pounds of mind he has laid on during the
