All day I've ben a workin' hard
Down in the bluegrass medder,
A plowin' up the mealy loan,
An musin' sorter, whether
I'd better put in oats this year,
Or plant the field with barley,
An cogitatin' like, betwixt,
I'm havin' quite a parley.
The April sun is mighty warm,
An down behind the holler,
1 see a crocus pushin' up
It's creamy buds of yaller;
The fros', I hope, has left the ground
An spring seems really here,
Old Nature handles in her lap
The srailin' baby year,
The sleepy ~silence's broken by
The sheep-bells on the hill,
An all the world seems lazy like.
A kinder soft an still;
/ heard a robin singin' shrill,
An see a jay sail by
1t seems like Natures wondrous kind
To sech poor trash ez L
Fer I'm homes jest ez happy
Ez a cat-bird ON a tree,
An / can't help a singin'
For the very life Of me;
An the htful, fannin' breezes
From the southland seems to play,
An make me feellike laughin'
In a most amazin' way.
Ez the sun to night was %settin',
In a purplish bank of gold,
An the cattle was q lowin',
An the sheep was in the fold,
Ez I looked across the lowlands,
Where the silver river lies,
Nm 1 thought Of all our bounties
Till a mist came Ger my eyes.
For the Lord is free with mercies,
An with blessings generous, too;
An in His kind benevolenee
He's brought me safely through;
A happy home, a humble roof
An plenty's ben my lot
Outside of Eden never was
A more contented spot.

Down the

The redbud on the Wabash banks
Now lights the torches of the spring.
And, here and there, in scattered ranks,
A few brave flowers are marshaling-
While overhead the boughs are stirred
By wild notes of a bugler bird.
An angler by the Wabash banks
With rod and ereel is seen to roam,
His dinner dangling at his TANKS.
A half a dozen miles from home;
His highest hope and zeal, alas!
To catch a basketful of bass.
A hunter by the Wabash banks
Steals noiselessly along the wood,
Besprent with mud from shirt to shanks,
And thirsting for the squirrels blood;
The heartless wretch! l almost wish
No luck may load his breakfast dish.
".
A lover by the Wabash banks
In moody melancholy sits,
A victim of the elfsh pranks,
Of Cupid. and his idle Wits
Tut! tut! how long it takes to find
That love is not forever kindl
A poet by the Wabash banks
Sits pipingon q reed like Pan
A-tipsy, triling out his thanks
Right m~errily. to God and man;
And SO T feel constrained to say,
"The spring is coming up this way"

A Knights Opinion.

NEW YORK, April 10. George Rod. gers, member of the Executive com mttee of the Knights of Labor, said to. day: "I have been apprehenslve for some time that our rapid growth would lead to extravagances in the way of strikes and demands which would in- volve the Knights in serious difficulties. Our organizers are to blame in some places. They want to make showing and they yield to the request of dissatis- fled labor to become organized. Then, too, l have noticed that new assemblies are anxious to try their strength. It is like the boy with new boots, he wants to kick something. Mir. Powderly has long considered this movement, and feel sure he has made no mistake in his pro- nunciamento. The incendiary interviews with prominent Knights concerned in the Missouri Pacific strike has done much to widen the breach between the men and the employers. The Knights are already the greatest organization of labor ever known, and if they heed MT. Powderly's advice they will yet become more powerful by absorption-taking in the open unions which are yielding and gradually coming in one by one. This bringing the boycott, the mighty engine of our order, to bear on petty cases will destroy its usefulness. Sc many firms will be on the list soon that no Knight can them in mind. hope they will be re. stricted."

Riots and Iucendiar [.

ST, LOUIS, April o.-The city has been in state of panic during the en- tire night owing to numerous incendiary fires, but with the presence of the mill. tary, which is guarding all the main lines, troops diverglng from the railway depot, something like order appears to promise for to-day. The sheriff has dis missed all deputies with the exception of three or four men, depending entirely upon the troops. Under their protection, all the platform men, yard men on the Burlington road have returned to work and the trains are running with some re- sularity.
 Later:-lt transpires that young man named Andrew Jones, Knight of Labor, was shot yesterday, and is not expected to live through the day. He will make the eigth person killed thus far
 , D. m-The fires which broke out at East St. Louis at II o'clock last night, are now under control. Fifty freight cars, scale houses and lumber yards were completely destroyed. The round houses and shops were partially saved. The fires were all incendiary. Large

The Nash Menagerie assembled last night, and the circus opened by the in. troduction of the boss baboon-Robin- son. The grand man," who has served his country in Congress Gin his mind), beloved and swelled like an inflated bladder. He walked the stage to and fro and lustily shouted about the Stars and Stripes and the gallant soldier, when, as matter ot fact, when this country was struggling for an existence, this old ranter was quietly seeking peace, far from the scenes of bloodshed. He insults the loyal soldier, who risked his life and lib- erty for the Stars and Stripes. This ranting demagogue never faced the music of war in defense of his countrys rights; but now, when peace and liberty are re- stored to our country, he is the blather- skite who seeks to incite men to do un- lawful deeds. Out upon such a snarl. ing, blackmailing, ranting, gnonini- ous barrister as this fosslized old pre-. tender has proved himself to be. His puerilc threats to trample upon the EPlTAPH, we scorn to answer We presume hs ability as a boycotter is about equal to his ability as an attorney. He has proved himself an egotstical, in. competent barrister, and the EpITAPIl has nothing but contempt and ridcule for his ability to accomplish anything but the ruin of his clients. As evidence of our assertion, we point to the case oi Korner & Peterson. Did he not work the ruin of this firm, in hls foolish efforts to serve them? He will ruin all attempts to get rid of the Chinese from Tombstone, if allowed to rant and rave on the plat form, much longer.

National Inauests.

WASHINGTON, April Io.-Senator Hoar yesterday introduced a bill which provides for inquests under national au- thority, and makes it the duty of any judge of circuit court, upon the petition of three citizens under oath, to make in- qury into the killing, injury or threaten ing of any person within his circuit be- cause of his race or color, or on account of political opinion, or for the purpose of influencing political actions. The bill is suggested by the late massacre at Car rollton, Miss, and is intended to cover such cases. It was referred to the Ju- dietary Committee.

Bagg says that the attendance at the public schools has increased since the Chinese agitation began.

Anti-American Feeling.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 10 The Over land Chiua Mail says: "News of the anti Chinese prosecutions in the United States has created very dangerous anti foreign feeling in Canton, and fears are entertained that the natives would at- tempt the reprisals mentioned by the Viceroy of Kwang Tung in his dispatch to the Chinese Minister at Washington. /"
