the other, she exclaimed. "My Lord,

The late S, P. Rounds, ST., in writing
his "reminiscences in "Rounds's Print
ers' Cabinet" monthly published in
Chicago and Omaha, printed the fol-
lowing (but fortnight before his
death) of a well-known resident of
Omaha, Hon. A. L. Wyman-that
will be read with considerable inter
est. The coincidence is startling, to
say the least: 'The fall that Henry
Clay was defeated | was acting as fore
man in the Madison Express Office of

curious coincidence. | was then the

and engaged in the banking business
and more than year later, without
any preconceived plan, we met in this
city, he as the president of the Omaha
National Bank and president of the
Loan and Trust Company, and | as
president Of the Omaha Republican

Mr.. George Van Duzer of New York

Stanton, ON the 18th of April, 1865
telegraphed to Governor John A. Dix
to stop the draft, as it was considered
that the war was virtually over. At

THE SaADOWED VALE
OR
POWER OF RESOLUTION.

Written for the BuLLrriN by Euterpe.l
strayed into the vale
Called the shadow of Death:
Wherein Hope never deigns to stay:
hut Despair taints the air
With poisonous breath.
And Demons have absolute sway.
There's a path through the vale.
And If there was more il ht,
One could easily follow the way;
But the mimic is of sin
Choose the sha ows of night.
Wherein their weird power to display. =
One must travel alone
Through that valley so drear,
1t Is useless to look for guide;
Or delav on the way
When the heart eirks with fear:
Thus, many poor wanderers have died.
Very short was my story;
AS knew that Despair
Had power to madden or KILL
And had heard or lac read,
That the spri of he air
Are subject to q firm human will.
SO l rallied the powers
OF my body and mind
Being determined not to fall
Twas not meet to retreat,
For grim Woe sto d behind;
Life and light were beyond the vale
Over narrow path,
Through a marshy mead.
CROP. d my way slowly along;
IT'S a singular tting,
Bur, my heart WAS afraid
Though kept resolution strong,
That the sprtes of the vale
We e around me was plaiL,
Though the gloom ohscured the weird things
A faint glimpse of the imps
Now and then cou gain,
As they struck az me with tn .ir wings
NY inf1exlbie will,
Like a strong coat of mail,
Repelled all the shadowy forms,
Till n bright, srnn light
AT the end Of the vale,
Showed that should survive Fats's storms.
Now Hope merrily sings.
And my soul joins the song;
My heart beating time to the tune.
I'll beware of Despair,
As journey along;
Keeping life bright as sunshine at noon.

AKRON, o., Sept. 1e.-Anothor horrible
wreck took place to-day on the N. Y. r,
& o. railroad. This time it was three
miles south Of this city, again on sharp
curve and between high banks. Two
freight trains, Section 8 OF No. %. and Soc
tion Of No. D. came together head-first
with such force as to pile the wreckage up
fully thirty-fve feet high, landing one
tender an d two freight-cars on top Of one
of the engines, and crushing nine other
cars into kindling-wood, while both
engines were completely demolished.
One engineer was killed and three
persons were quite badly injured,
while both crews were more or less jammed
up. Three tramps were stealing ride on
top OF box-car loaded with coke. This
car was split open and was shot upon the
wreck. One of the tramps was quito badly
hurt about the head, but all crawled out Of
their perilous position and walked away.
Train orders had gone out that trains Nos.
% and % should meet at New Portage, five
miles south Of here. The operator at New
Portage had this order, but for some rea-
son let the block down and let train No. "a
through, causing the wreck.
