The Cyclone.
FOR THE MONITORi

Roll on, thou deep and dark blue whirl-cloud, roll
Ten thousand living things may fly in vain.
Man marks the earth with work, but his control
Stops with thy approach upon the plain
The wrecks all thy deed, nor doth remain
A shadow of mans hope, which he may own
When tossing wildly like sheaf of grain,
He rises in thy vortex, upward thrown
Without grave, ,unknelled ,uncoffined and unknown
The dark sky mirror, where thy mighty form
Revealed in tempestuous moments time
Convulsing nature, glasses the frowning storm.
Dread Leviathan of torrid cline,
Dark -heaving, boundless, formless and sublime
The image of fury and the visible throne
Ofinvisible power, where vapors thick with CRIME
The funnel-fngered monster rides; each zone
Obeys thee; thou goest forth, dread, measureless
alone. A. D. MARCKREs.

The Hon. James G.. Blaine address,

burg, in Maine, on the subject of ed

he said: "The university in the Unit

among its students, and tolerate no
distinctions except those based on
the aristocracy of talent and acquire

center and source of the highest cul-

A small boy was out on the street
with his older brother, waiting for the
circus procession to pass. They held
each others hands, and were all ex-
citement to see the coming street pa
rade. Others were on the street. The
crowd was so dense that the owners
of teams found it next to impossible
to drive their horses through the solid
mass of humanity.
To clear the street big, burly po-
liceman is started down the thorough
fare, using his club with effect, es-
pecially among the little children.
He came up to the two brothers and
forced them back on to the sidewalk,
a position which chanced to be un-
der grade, and, therefore, most IN
desirable for viewing the passing
show.
ST wish I was bod for mint,
lisped the little fellow, who had been
turned back. The crowd surging
around him prevented him from see
ing anything in the street.
"Hush, Bobby exclaimed his
brother; s'that is wicked"
81 don't tare," continued the little
fellow,
"Why do you make such wish! Z!

ton.

The Southern Presbyterian Gen
eral Assembly have definitely de
cided the question OF Adams origin.
They decline to believe that he was
evolved from a "protaplasmic,
primOrdial germ" like Pooh Bah,
and hold that he was created Out
OF nothing and that his Eve was
formed out Of one OF his floating
ribs, just as Genesis lays down the
history through the inspired pen OF
Louisville Post. 1t was
necessary TO have some settled
belief on this question, although
what men think about the origin of
man changes nothing aud cannot
be proven. "When you fnd bout
which way you are going to go, Mr..
Fagin, hi1l move hon." SAID Nancy
Sykes, after meeting and lodging
the old man, right and left, in a
narrow way. Let good people take
either side of the evolution ques.
ton, aud move rigt along. 1t will
be all the same in the end.
