HLILEO.

Illileo! The moonlight seemed lost across the
wales;
The stars bcstrewed the azure like an armor's
scattered scales;
The airs Of night were quiet as the breath Of
silken' sails,
And all your words were sweeter then the notes
Of nightingalcs.
IIlileo Iegardii iE the garden there alone,
With your figure carved of fervor as the Psyche
carved Of stone,
There came to me no murmur Of the fountain )
nndcrtone
So mystically, unsteady mellow az your own.
You Whispered low, IlIileo-so low the leaves
were mute.
And the echoes falt red breathlcssly in your
voice's- vain plrs1ft,
And there died the distant dalliancc Of the
screnalcrfs lutte,
And | held you in my bosom as the husk may
hold the fruit.
Illileo, l listened; l believed you, In my bliss
What were all the worlds above me, since
found You thus i'll this?
Let them, recling, reach to win me-cycn
heaven would miss
Grasping earthward 1 would cling here,
though clung by just a kiss
And ! said the stars should slackcn in their
PAGES through the vast:
That blossoms should grow odorcss and lilies
all aEhast,
Ere yet my loyalty should fail enduring to the
last
Sovowed 1. 1t is written. 1t is changelcss as
the past.
IlIileo Lcgardi in the shade your palace
throws
Like the cowl about the singer at your gildcd
pOrtico3
A moan goes with the music that may vex the
high rcposc
Of heart that fades and crumLles as the
crimson of rose.

A Glass Mountain.
HALF MILE LONG AND VARYING FROM
100 TO 200 FEET IN HEIGHT.

One of the forthcoming reports of the
Geological Survey of the Government,
will contain paper by Prof. Joseph p.
Iddings npon an obsidcan cliff in Vel

ton half mile long by from $50 to 2GJ

IGdings says, sis as good glass as any
artificially manufactured. It's cologs

interesting to the visitor, but furnish To
the scientific investigator phenomena of

which poured down an ancient slope
from the plateau lying east 1t is i'm

thickness of this flow was. The dense
glass which now forms its lower portion
is from 20 to 100 fee thick, while the
porous AMI pumiceous upper portion has

A remarkable feature of the cliff is
the developmept of Erismatic columns,
which form its southern extremity.

A REPORTER of the Nashville Union

A REPORTER of the Nashville Union
took view of the Apache captiyes, as
they went through Nashville toward
Florida, and found them interesting, ii
not pretty. There were bucks and
squaws and papooses of every conceiv-
able size and every condition of abo-
riginal flthiness. A majority of the
men, however, were fine, stalwart,
broad -shouldered fellows over six feet
high, with high cheek-bones, long,
black hair, and of light copper co'e .
They were rugged out in all styles -nd
modes of fantastic citizens clothing,
and seemed to have donned whatever
they could lay their hands upon, while
large number still wore the aborigi-
nal buckskin leggins and gayly-color-
ed blankets. One strapping big buck,
warm as it was, was wearing a chin
chilla overcoat that must have weighed
twenty pounds, and yet ne viewed
things with q stolid indifference that
appeared cool enough for cucumber.
Some wore hats, though not few
were perfectly bareheaded. One fel
low had on battered stovepipe, and
another venerable scalp-taker had g
big red bandana handkerchief wrap
ped about his head.

A. B. MULLETT, ex-Supervising Archi-
tect of the Treasury, says that it is a
mistake to estimate the violence of the
earthquake shocks in Charleston by
the amount of damage done. He thinks
that if Washington, for instance, had
been subjected to the same shocks, the
comparative damage would not have
been more than half, if so much. The
buildings in Charleston are almost al
together very old, the mortar and ce-
ment used in their construction are
from the immediate locality, and are Of
of very inferior character.

We would be glad to understand

He says that if merchants have
to import goods and pay gold for
them, aud then sell them for silver
at 80 cents on the dollar, that mel
chandise will have 10 sell for 20 or

Yet merchandise is falling in price.
