tions from the board, to direct the attorney
of the Portland & Ogdensburg Railroad to
incorporate in the proposed lease the above
terms, in order that a lease may be formulat-
ed to lay before the full board of directors.
1t will be remembered that no lease can be
effected until approved by the city govern

Light Weight Gold Coirs.

Light weight gold coins can be sold for
their weight in gold the same as bullion
1t is our duty to stamp the word light
ON all gold coins below weight that come
TO our hands. A certain St Louis bank
once brought 800, 600 in gold coin to the
sub-treasury, and s., 200 of it proved to
be light, and was SO marked b. Us. Light
gold coin is not redeemablc for its face
value, but the case is different with
silver
We give full sized silver coins in even
exchange for silver coins that are worn
smooth but in no case do we redeem
COINS that are defaced or mutilated The
smooth silver coins we send out to be re-
coined Sometimes we receive light gold
coins in the remittances TO the treasury
of the country postmasters. In all such
cases we stamp the light gold and return
ii to the seDders. Some time ago the
government officers came to the conclu-
sion that acids were used that reduced
the size of gold coins, making the pieces
look as though they had beer gradually
worn by handling, and that is one of the
principal reasons why smooth gold coins
are not redeemed for their coins face
value. No matter how the crooked peo-
pie took the gold off the coins, they could
bring it together again and have nuggets
of the pure article.-Assistan Treasurer
ShultZ in Globe Democrat.

AMONG THE LILIES"

Three years ago OF this SINE silver stream
We Coated idly on cur holiday;
Do you remember lovc' In my dream,
You IN your old, imprisoned. willful wayl
The meadows were as rich In flowers as nov,
As full Of perfume was the summer air,
The holy light Of love was on your brow;
Ny soul was fcttcred 70 the fiend despair
Then, as we glided through the lilies free,
You taught a life TO come, a love 70 be.
Three years ago whispered might long
To Goat with you toward a distant land
Making our life ono melody Of song
Feeling our heart beat, sitting hand in hand.
Somehow we parted. and the night crept down.
Folding our scene in mantle Of regret
You 90 your cottage went, 20 the town
Your voice was laughter, but my eyes were wet.
Night locked the fields. and shut each rosy
grove.
You taught me patience, and l whispered
lowell
once more upon the river where We met,
Gliding once more upon rs silver thread
OF stream, that parts our rapture from regret.
and strangely binds the living 10 the dead.
Dis pfay'r is answered; God has granted me.
So good he Is. his best created thing
Tie worthless love is dying: / can see
Auuat was beautiful, but base, take wing,
OA hold me close and, looking in your eyes,
1T me behold heavens blue Of paradisel

Now at the sea side pretty arms
Are to the sun laid bare,
While pretty girls display their charms
Aud sniff the salty air.
Unheeded comes the dashing wave;

For where she stands no waters lave
Her pretty bathing suit.

How changed the lovely dream,
Jould one but see her arms and nose
Ger plastered with cold cream.

4 Seasonable Rhyme.

The apple rpens OIL the tree,
The hen brings forth her second brood,
And daily by the sounding sea
The collar willis upon the dude
The mowers singing in the mead,
The rose the air with fragrance fills,
The wild tomato runs TO seed,
The icemen send their little bills.
We daily see the yachtsman trim
Ills saucy vessels sheets and tacks;
At evening in bay windows dim
And dusky there are little smacks
