JUNE DAYS.

The whilom hills of gray, whose tender shades
We're dashed with neager tlnts of early
spring,
Lift now their rustling domes and colonnades,
And from the airy battlements they fling
Their banners to the wind, and in the glades
Spread rich pavilions for the summers king.
Now lifts the love.lit soul, and llfes full tide
SWells from the ground and beats the trem-
bling air.
Mounts up the sleeps, and on the landscape
wide
Spreads like a boundless ocean everywhere,
Delights dear dreams the dancing waves di-
And with swift sails outny pursuing care.
The sometime fields that sad and sodden lay,
Soaked in the first cold rains, or fecked with
With helpless grasses trodden in the clay
by shivering herds that wandered to and
fro,
Wave now with grain. and happy birds all day
Pipe hidden on the slopes with flowers
ablow.
The yellow streams that fed from winters
When first the young year saw the vernal
moon,
And Tipped the yielding banks whose moist
ened mold
Slipped mlngling with the flood, now sleep
at noon,
Calm as the imaged hills which they infold
All glimmering in the long, long skies of
June.
The brindled meadow hides the winding path
With interlacing clover, white and red
The blackbirds, startled from their dewy bath,
Fly chattering, joyful with imagined dread;
The while the whetting scythe foretells the
swath,-
And rings the knell of flowers that are not
dead.
nf n
wheat;
The shining crow toward the woodland flies
Far in the fields the larks their notes repeat,
And from the fence the whistling partridge
cries;
Now to the cooling shades the COWS retreat,
To browse and dream with mild, halt. open
ing eyes.
No other days are like the days in June;
They stand upon the summit of the year,
Filled up with sweet remembrance of the tunt
That wooed the fresh spring fields; they
have tear
For violcts dead; they will engird full soon
The sweet full breasts of summer drawing
near.
Each matchless morning marches from tn
east
In tints inimitable and divine;
Each perfect noon sustains the endless feas
In which the welded charms of life combine
Sweet evening waits till golden day, released
Shall lead her blushing down the worlds de
cline.
And when the day is done a crimson band
Lies glowing on the hushed and darkeninI
The groups of trees like whispering spirit
stand;
The robins song lifts from its trembling
breast;
The shadows steal out from the twilight land
And all is peace and quietness and rest.

Is the Revival Coming /!

The New Year opens with a respectable
boom in the stock market. The average
individual will not place much confidence
in it as an indication of revival in the
business industries of the country. The
stock market has ceased to be a lamp to
the feet of the business man. 1t is man
ipulated too much to be an indication of
value as to the real condition of business !;
and yet il is by no means sure that busi-
ness revival is not al hand. We incline to
think that it is, and there are evident and
good grounds for the opinion. 1t is appar-
ent that revival of confidence is all that
is needed to make business better. There
is nothing in the condition of the country to
warrant the great depression that exists.
The only great weakness in it is the weak
ness of the railroads, over-burthened with
interest charges, with managers thoroughly
alarmed at the failure of their earnings to
meet their payments, When they make up
their minds to the inevitable and reduce
their charges so as to invite business and
induce the industry that yields it, business
will come and prosperity return. The
event cannot long be delayed and it is not
unreasonable to expect that the worst of
the troubles are already over. So that
though the present stock boom indicate
little, il may have struck the right key
after the many failures of performance to

Man Given Damages IN Breach of Promise
suit in Philadelphia.
From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Some time ago William NJ. Hogan, violin.
ist and musical director at the National the
atre, became acquainted with Mrs Josephine
q. Wescott, widow residing on Thirteenth
street. near Norris. He became impressed
with her good qualities and began paying
attentions TO her, finally offering his hand in
marriage. She accepted and the day was
fixed, but as it approached the fair widow,
upon some pretext, postponed it to another
time, and did so at various times and finally
removed to New Jersey. The courtship and
engagement lasted from 1874 until last year,
when the lady falling to, keep her promise,
the gentleman who had in the meantime
made her many presents and been very at
tive to her, resolved to wait no longer But
as she declined to fulfill her engagement, he
resorted to the law for compensation for the
wrongs he had endured and the misery he
had suffered from the hope deferred which
made his heart sick. To this complaint no
plea or answer was filed by the lady, and
being thus in default the matter went TO a
sherifs jury to assess the amount which they
in their judgment should deem sufficient TO
soothe his wounded feelings. This morning
that determination was reached, and judg-
ment was entered for the plaintiff in the sum
of $500. The lady is said to he worth $50, 0OO

THE LESSON OF THE NEW YEAR.

The road of life is hard
When our feet bleed and scourging winds us

Inarrcd
Than any mans, who said
" Make stInight paths for your feet and TO the
opprest,
Come ye to me, ana win give YOU rest"
Comfort our souls with love
Love of all human kind;
Love special, close, in which like sheltered
dove
Each weary heart its own safe nest may lind;
And love that turns above
Ador1ngly contented TO resign
All loves, II need be, for the love divine.
Friend, come thou like "A friend
And whether bright thy face
Or uim with clouds we cannot comprehend.

place,
And trust thee 10 the end.

His First Name.

Brother Seilhamer, of the Church of God
has frankly informed the public through
the columns of the lNTELLIeENcER what
is the Christian name of Rev. Mr.. Mere
dith, OF New jersey who lately intro
duced himself and was introduced by Rev.
Mr.. Seilhamer in this community. without
any intimation from either that he had n
Christian name.
BY the failure of this information the
risk was incurred of great injustice to
"Iiey. Mr.. Meredith of New Jersey, as a
minister of his name, assuming also to
lecture on temperance, had brought him
self into disrepute and disgrace in Phila-
delphia.
II turns out that the initials of ''the Rev.
Mr.. Meredith of New Jersey" are the
same as those Of the reverend temperance
lecturer who has misealried in several
other pats OF the country; and who, it
was naturally suspected, would hereafter
evold Identification Il possible.

ONE way in which il is proposed
TO reduce the surplus this winter is by the
erection of as many public buildings as Con-
gress in its beneficence will permit. When
the possibilities of combinations between
congressman to obtain votes for pet
measures in return for similar favors, are
considered, il is easy to see how vast sums
will melt away like snow under warm sum-
And the worst feature of these public build
ing appropriations is that they are rarely
kept within the limit of the amount origin
ally asked. Buildings requiring much more
money than granted arc promptly begun and
If Congress does not give an additional ap-
preparation to complete what should never
have been started, it comes in for large
share of reprobation. The report of the su.
peryising architect of the treasury depart
ment shows that there are designs for at least
fifteen public buildings in all of which the
original limit of cost has been transgressed.
The public building schemers will need
good clout such as that given the river and
harbor crowd in order to bring them to their
senses.

why the Debt Increased.

Secretary Mccullough said to a reporter on
Friday, with regard to the slight increase of
the public debt shown by the December
statement, that it is due not so mucn to any
unusual expenditures during the month as
to the fact that there has been a great falling
of in the receipts For the past two months
the treasury, he says, has been feeling the
effect of the general depression of business
all over the country and the revenues have
generally decreased. Meanwhile the expen-
ditures have kept up to the highest point
those for pensions slightly increasing. He
says, however, that the indications are that
the statement for January will show dimi-
mutton ofthe public debt again.

GIANT POWDER EXPLOSION.
Five Children Terribly Injured by a Danger,
PIaything.


An explosion of giant powder occurred on
Friday at the home of Andrew Hershey near
Spring Grove, York county, in which five
children were injured. 1t appears that Mr..
Hershey and his wife were absent from home
and during that time two of his children and
three Of his neighbor's, Michael Hoke, the
youngest OF whom was seven years and the
Oldest eleven, found can containing about a
pound Of giant powder, TO which they applied
match. A terrible explosion followed, in
which the children were terribly lacerated by
the flying fragments and their clothes set ON
fire They went to pool of water where
they bathed each other and tore the burning
clothes Off Tho pool TO which they went
was colored red with blood.
Wilson Hershey, who held the can, had
his right hand severely lacreated, his face
and left hand badly burned; Andrew
Hershey received three or four cuts in the
face and flesh wound ON one OF his arms,
and Henry Hoke cash on the forehead, and
the other two were slightly burned In the
wash house, where the explosion happened,
a fragment of the can was found driven an
inch and a half into the tub, one into a window
sash and another through the ceiling. The
window panes were nearly all blown out in
the building.

THE dynamite iend has already smashed
his New Years slate.

TnE dairymen of some of our neighbor
counties are ''in favor of prohibitory law
preventing the sale of aduterated or bogus
butter in the state" 1t would be a good
thing, no doubt. 10 stop the sale of bogus
butter; but how about bogus jewelry, bogus
beer, bogus coffee, bogus tea, bogus whisky,
bogus candy and the hundred other bogus
things with which the market abounds :?
There is no special reason why the public
should have special protection against bogus
butter. Besides, not all the bogus butter is
butterine or oleomargarine, objects Of
the dairymen's attack. They are much better
than good deal OF so called butter made
from cream-cleaner purer, sweeter and
more wholesome. Let every butter tub stand
on its own bottom; and il anybody prefers
tallow to butter let them have it, so long as
nobody is fooled into buying taIlow for
butter.

WHILE everyone is turning over new
leaf at this peculiarly blessed season, it might
be well for the servant girl to stop talking
back to her mistress long enough to give the
matter some serious reflection. They little
realize what very important factors they are
TO the happiness of society, or if they do, their
conduct must be believed to be inspired by
Satanic impulses. 4 really good servant girl
is much harder TO find than the tabled foun-
tain of perpetual youth, or the philosophers
stone, for the reason that a very remarkable
combination of good qualities are required in
her composition. While she may be angelic
in temper and perfect cook, she may be to-
tally lacking i'm thrift In fact some girls
think nothing of wasting their employers
goods, and a London authority remarks,
even acquire contempt for mistress who
looks as she should do, carefully to the
ways of her house and checks undue ex-
travagance. But perhaps, if all had the
rearing and trials of this class of employees,
criticism of their failures might not be so Sc.
