THE Snow.-The Detroit Free Press
says of Burr Robbins circus: In the
tent devoted exclusively to the menag-
erie division of this enterprise are so
many rare attractions and interesting
studies that one finds considerable diff
Guilty in selecting starting point of
description. The circus proper
is truly one of the neatest and cleanest
advertisements of its kind ever offered
for the suffrages OF Detroit audiences.
1t is worthy of special observation that
the proprietors actually give their pat
rons more in the way of circus
than they advertise to give. This is
carrying conscientiousness into field
of operations where it has not hitherto
resided long enough to become very
well acquainted Let the public re-
member this when they hear the Burr
Robbins show mentioned"

FOR THE OLD LOVES SAKE.

Thy way, he said, is smooth and green
and fair,
There are no thorns to wound and
bruisc thy feet;
Where summer reigns and starlikc
blossoms sweet
Bend to the winds low call thy path is
there,
And mine? Alas, no dewy mornings
break
Across the valley where my path hath
lain.
And yet though youth he dead and
and faith be slain,
/ keep this token for the old loves sake
Above the urn that holds no hidden
flame
of alter fires that long have paled
away,
l yet may pause and in the ashes gray
Read with dim eyes the old familiar
name.
And if some shadowy memory should
awake
If once again my eyes with tears grow
wet,
If in my heart should spring some
vain regret,
Nay, do not scorn me, for the old loves
sake.
As one who sees in old remembered
hooks,
With eyes that have grown sad with
ceaseless tears,
The same glad beauty of the long-lost
years.
And hears again the song of summer
brooks;
So if from troubled dreams l could awake
And feel thy warm, soft kisses on my
face,
think the sweetness of thy winsome
grace
Would touch me-only for the old loves
sake

A BLIND MANS WONDERFUL WORK.

A Berlin school contains at present
a scientific novelty Of particular at
tcntion, namely, a monster movable
globe, made of copper, the work of
a blind clock maker, on the con-
struction of which the energetic
man spent seventeen years Of his
life The globe, which represents
the earth, turns on its own axis by
means of mechanism. An artificial
moon moves round the globe in
twenty-cight days and six hours,
while a movable metal band, on
the hours are marked, indicates the
mean times in the different parts of
the earth. Round the upper part
of this globe, which weighs u ton
and a half and measures 12G feet in
diameter, spins a railroad car (capa-
bic of holding six pcrsons), which
serves to give better view Of the
regions of the North Pole. The
painting of the globe is done in oil
and neccssitatcd the employment
of two men during one entire year.

Things That Never Die.

The pure, the bright, the beautiful,
That stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulses of worldlcss prayer,
The dream of love and truth,
The longing after something lost, ssoaEs. =
The spirits yearning cry,
The striving after better hopes
These things shall never die,
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
The brother in his need,
The kindly word in grief's dark hour,
That proves friend indeed;
The plea for mercy, softly breathed
When justice threatens nigh
The borrowings of a contrite heart
These things shall never die
Let nothing pass, for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not chance to waken love,
Be firm, and just and true;
So shall light that cannot fade
Ream on thee from on high,
And angel voices say to thee,
"These things that never die"

And it came to pass there came Il
day when the young man with the
lead-pencil legs and high-water-pant
bethought himself of the skating
rink.
So he went out, and when he
came nigh unto his girl he spake
unto her saying
"Come Mary, let us grid ourselves
up and go hence to the rink, for
behold l have been diligent in thy
absence and have embezzled two
coupons" So they went, one with
the other, for they loved each other
with love, the greatness of which
was like unto death.
And when the youth and maiden
were come unto the rink, they saw
divers other young men and maids
waltzing hither and thither, and
standing upon their necks, and
spreading themselves upon the
floor to the four corners of the
place.
And Mary was pleased thereat.
For she saw the other maidens stick
ing to their escorts closer than
boiler rivets. And she longed for
some Of the same agony.
So she prevailed upon her lover
to go and do likewise.
And he went, with light heart.
For he loved the sport, because he
had been there before and knew
the whichness thereof.
And after little while he return
ed, and took Mary's feet and fasten-
ed the skates thereon. And in like
manner did he unto his own feet,
Then they smiled one upon the
other, and went upon their wobbly
way. And it come to pass when
they had got out where the eyes ofthe
multitude were upon them, Mary
forgot herself and looked back.
Now this was a grevious thing to do
for it was written on the wall: Thou
shalt not look back when thou skat-
est, lest thy feet forsake thee and
thou treadest upon thine ear"
But Mary was full of joy and
chocolate caramels, and remember
ed not these things. So when she
looked back her feet flew from un-
der her, and went up into the at
mosphere and cut star therein,
and descended with a great crash,
and Mary sat down on the floor with
a dull thud, so that her hustle es-
capped and came out at the neck of
her dress. And her fall was exceed
ingly hard. Yea, great was the
muchness thereof
So likewise had her lover spilled
himself not, for he had been like
the seven wise skaters who had put
cork soles in the basement of their
trousers. But in an evil moment
he saw Mary's hustle about her
neck, and he lifted up his voice and
laughed and asked her from whence
came the chaff bag.
Then was Mary wroth, and she
grew red in the countenance and
answered, saying "Thou leadest
me into slippery paths, when the
floor riseth up and striketh me in a
grevious place thou cometh not to
my aid; yea, verify, thou gurg-
lest at my misfortune"
"Henceforth we will remain
together little further off"
And from that day unto this she
passeth him by on the other side of
the avenue.-Band Messenger.

REIL'S KUMPUS.
The Dominion Officers Shook Up Over the
Half Breeds Demonstration.

A Toronto, Canada, dispatch Of the 18th
ult. says: The excitement here continues
unabated. From an early hour this morn
ing the approaches to the drillshed were
crowded with people, waiting in expecta-
ton of seeing the departure of the troops.
The Royal Grenadiers mustered at s
o'clock, and notwithstanding the early hour
and the fact that the sergeants could no,
find time last night to notify all the men,
bers OF their companies, they turned out
900 strong. After they were dismissed the
Queens own mustered, and showed the
creditable turnout of s4,. There is the
widest excitement among them, and many
who left the regiment when they heard
that Colonel Otter was to take command
begged to be re.enrolled. Both regiments
are now in the drillshed, anxiously waiting
orders to start. The selection of go men
from each regiment will not be made until
definite orders arrive. The Mayor has in
timated that the city will look after the
wives and families of any married men
who go to the front.

ON sTARvATlON'S VERGE.
Pitiful Condition Of People in Portions of
West Virginia.

Information received from The suffering
districts III West Virginia says the people
are in bad condition-on the verge of
starvation. People are asking for bread,
and animals are starving to DEATH In
many places strong men are begging for
corn to keep body and soul together. The
condition is distressing. In some places
many gain livelihood by running timber,
but for months there has been no rise in
the rivers or mountain streams; hence the
people are suffering for wood, because no
timber can be run. Unless a rise comes
soon there will yet be months of suffering
from going abroad, but the time has come
when hunger pinches them, and they ask
for food. In the northern part of the coun-
try great suffering is experienced among
mountain farmers and lumbermcn. Maj.
ters are truly distressing. Children and
women eat parched corn when they can &c,
it, and are thankful. The winter has been
severe, the people are poor and there is nc
work. In many places stock cied in largt
| numbers from starvation.

quest for credit Of $4o,ooo,ooo on account
of military operations in China. Ferry at

and he demanded that the motion be ghen

Ferry Immediately announced the res.
ignation of the entire Ministry. President
Grevy accepted the ministry designations.
It's generally expected that DeFrey-
Genet, at present senator, or Ribor1 the
great French jurist and now member OF
the Chamber of Deputies, will be called
upon to form new ministry. 1t is also
believed Waddington, the present French
Ambassador, will be rendered the Office OF
Minister Of Foreign Affairs in place OF

Doles, young farmer living several miles
from Vienna in Dooly county, Georgia,

drinking, which has grown to fiightful
proportions in the republic since the whole
sale introduction O. cheap French brandy,
has passed a resolution restoring to each
canton the right of local option in regard
to the sale Of Intoxicating liquors, and CIV

taxes on the domestic manufacture of all
spirits, in addition to the tax ON the sale of
Janitorial wine, the duty on which in cases

is the encouragement and substitution of
good and cheap wines for spirits as bcv.

Decision Relating to Pensions,

Commissioner of Pensions Black has
decided that mother cannot be allowed a
pension as dependent mother and the ac-
crued pension of her deceased husband for
the same period OF time. tic says "Upon
careful consideration Of the laws relatin.
to the subject am Of the opinion that
when two claims become united in one per
son, making only one beneficiary, that per-
son cannot be allowed, either directly or in
directly, the benefit Of two pensions for
the same period Of time. Such an allow.
ance would be contrary to the provisions
Of law, which declares that the pension
laws shall not BE- converged SO as to allow
more than one pension in the same time
to person.

The Wood River Times gives all account
Of the arrest last week and placing under
$4,000 bonds each Of sixty members of the
Broadford Union, and the preparatory steps
for the establishment ola military company
near HALEY. 1t adds: Inasmuch as Gen
eral Brisbin has orders from this Secretary
of War to bring all or(part of his command
(Which also includes infantry, cavalry,
and two Calling guns) to Wood River for
the Summer, it looks very much as if Com
nissary Wilson was making active prepa-
rations for ppotracted stay of a body Of
men. The force at Boise numbers 100, of
which So could come to Wood River, but
as the Calling guns could discharge 400
shots each per minute, and the other arms
are OF equal effectiveness, the force could
be used to advantage.
There is no imminent danger Of martial
law being declared, however, as the citizens
are averse to it unless in the direct neces
sity.

mining man, in speaking Of the recen
