TIE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD
MEMORY'S LEAVES.

The dreams / had, the songs l sang,
The cherished friends gone by,
All memory s leaves are ever green,
They cannot, must not, shall not die.
/ garlands weave for other orows
Sing songs, alas, they will not hear.
But never will such flowers bloom.
As those plucked when they were near.
hallow fingers round the past,
A mystic beauty on each face.
Nor time nor grief nor pain can change
Or from my heart one name erase.
Though spring return with budding flowers,
And summer days be just as sweet,
To us they seem not half so fair
As We pass on with tired feet.
But could those hours again return,
Those friends be with US as of yore;
wonder if we'd feel the SEINE
As when they were with us before.
Would we still fancy all were true:
All men were brave ana women fair;
No dIscord mar life's music sweet;
No shadows hover anywhere2
Ali never more shall waking bring
Reality so sweet as this;
The years have taken in their train
Our perfect faith and perfect bliss.
Yet We can dream at twilight's hour,
OF other days and faces fair,
And for awhile forget that we
Are growing old, and they not here.
The old, old songs, we cannot sing
For fearful eyes and aching heart;
Those sweet old dreams and cherished friends
Are of our better selves part.
Remembrance is boon that's given
To bless US while we linger here,
And link mortality TO heaven
And makes cen heaven itself more dear.

THE PAST LOVE.
DORA READ GooDALE, IN HARPER's WEEKLY

hate the bronze leaves and the red,
And that pale flower with fiutterlng stalk
That lined the shadowy poplar walk
Where our frs words OF love were SAID
We loved: the corn was in the ear;
Cav hunters made the hill-sides ring;
And OH love seemed beaureous thlng,
And all we sighed for close and nearl -
hate the woodlands spicy smell,
Through whose wild sweets at dusk we strayee
Arm linked in arm, by rock and glade,
While the heart whispered, "All ls WE'LL"
Was mine the fault that love was brief
The wonder of a matchless day
Whose glory dimmed and died away
Like the red color on a leaf?
Wa. mine the fault that all the flame
Passed as a breath and ceased to bef
Heirs of fruitess hope were we;
Worthy of pity more than blame.
We parted; and the icy gust
Stripped the dull forests withered plume,
And cast it through the echoing gloom
In purple spinges mixed with dust.
Let winter sweep the desolate aisles,
And make Their stones his winnowing floor.
Nay, let the green spring come once more
And light it with immortal smiles!

The Louisiana State Lottery
Company evidently believes ssthere

taken at it's food leads on to for
tune" The recent cash donations
Of the company Of $50, COO to the
city of New Orleans, and 800, 600
to the parishes, is an apt illustra-
ton of the willingness of the
company to place its dollars where
they win do the most good As an
investment it is frst-class, whether
it be viewed from the selfish stand
point of having been made for the
protection of its own immense in
terests, for the purpose of placing
a large number of people under
obligations for its timely and
bountiful munifcence, or for the
purpose of proving the company
to be corporation with soul!

President Livingstone, of the
Georgia Alliance, has created q
sensation by an interview in which
he says that the Alliance proposes
making every candidate for Con-
gress pledge himself to support the
sub-treasury plan adopted by, the
Alliance at the st. LOUIS meeting,
and also to support government
control of railroads and telegraphs.
In brief the sub-treasury plan is
for the government to advance to
farmers 80 per cent value Of staple
products placed in bonded ware
house. sAll we want" says Presi-
dent Livingston, s.is the same
chance with our cotton and other
products that is given whisky men
and gold and silver men" Every
candidate for congress must 20 on
record on these two questions. That
pertaining to the financial system
is to be especially pushed In case
candidate refuse, Alliance men will
be run. The great strength Of the
Alliance makes this a stating
piece of news.

State, giving as his reasons that
the charter of the lottery company
is soon to be acted upon, and he
had no right to place the people
under obligations to the company
by the acceptance of its gratuity.
Of course the governors act has
raised q howl among the supporters
of the lottery, but unbiased and
fair thinking people will see and
decide that he did right. The gov
ernor was aware and understood
perfectly we'll that the money could
and would be rendered to the par
ishes needing it, and that he in
jured no one and retarded no help
by his refusal. The company had
made the offer and was in no con-
dition to back down; therefore, with
ridiculous assumption of virtuous
indignation it made the offer to the
parishes direct, and it was accepted
and Immediately applied by their
proper officials. who were already
on the ground and prepared to
utilize the money.

Unprecedented High Water.

Within the last ten days the Mis-
/ sissippi river and all of its tribu-
taries have reached and passed the
accepted danger line for each.
For all of this immense system
OF waterways to be trimming full
at one time is entirely out of the
usual order, and the consequence
has been that the levees have been
subjected to greater strain than
was contemplated by the engineers
who built them. Under this state
OF affairs it has been only ques-
ton of time when they would give
way to the force of the torrent, and
now comes the news that several
large breaks or s'creyasses" have oc-
CURED, and hundreds of unfortu-
nate people in Louisiana and Ar
kansas are flooded out Of house and
home. The lesson of the present
Hood is a severe one, but if it can
be utilized to secure united State
and national aid in SO strengthen
ing the levees as resist the mighty
force of another such food, It's de-
VISITATION will in the end be of ben
fit to another generation, if indeed,
the present may not enjoy it.
While Red river has reached the
danger line at one or two points, it
is now declining, and there is but
little danger to be unprecedented in
the Red River valley. In fact, it is
likely that the worst has come for
all points; and, let us also hope, q
similar complication of forces may
not occur again, or, if they do, that
the engineering skill of our time
will have provided ample protec-.|
tion against all contingencies.

"For the Lottery, or against the
Lottery" that's the question that
agitates a number of the State pa
pers just now; and some of them in
their new-found zeal are disposed
to be offensive toward ethe silent
PRESS" for not joining in their sud-
den righteousness on the subject.
Well, the CHRONICLE commented
and moralized aga nst the Lottery
for ten years, as dozens of our edi-
torials will show, and finding it all
of no avail, in 1889 we accepted
and ran the forty dollar ADVERTISE
ment for the lottery for that year!
About the LIST of January last the
gentlemanly advertising agent of
the lottery company, Mr.. Thomas
Mcintyre, informed us that ssthe
contract for advertising is hereby
renewed for 1890" To this we re-
piled that the lottery advertisement
could not be renewed in the CHRoNI-
Gle at any price. We make this
statement, not for the purpose of
taking any credit for our new-found
and spasmodic virtue, but simply
for the purpose of fixing our status
on the lottery question. As a typo,

The Arcadia Advance thinks it
is strictly matter of business
whether Louisiana is to continue
the charter of the lottery company.
In other words, if the company is
willing to pay good round sum
into the State treasury for the
privilege of running its fleeing
schemes, it is in favor of extending
the charter. We think, on the
other hand, that it is strictly busi-
ness for the people of Louisiana to
see to it that this corrupting
gambling institution is completely
annihilated.

THE Santa Fe's Galveston express was
wrecked about s O'Clock Monday morn
ing near Green, six miles south of Wichi-
Ia. Roadmaster Patrick Peters Of New
ton was killed, Engineer Gene Maud and
Fireman Jake Beufer each had a leg
broken. The express agent escaped
with broken arm. The train was run
ming at high rate Of speed, when just
as it emerged from a curve the engineer
noticed that the bridge over deep "a
vine had been burned out. All efforts to
stop the train were fruitless, and in an
instant the engine plunged into deep
draw followed by four of the cars, which
piled one upon the other. The engineer
and fireman jumped. but Roadmaster
Peters. who was on the engine with them.
was caught by some projection as he
sprang out. and the next instant was
crushed between the locomotive and ten
der. The entire top of his head was cut
off as If with a cleaver. No fatalities are
reported among the passengers, but sew
eral had limbs broken.
