DEAF BEETHOVEN.

His magic fingers wander DER the keys
Silent alas! to him for evermore;
Ihotgh like wave-music on q Sun-kissed
shore.
The tones float up In wondrous melodies.
o not for him the sense that bears the sound
OF such sweet chords unto the inmost souli
On not Tor hlln the solemn thunder-rou
Peallng, in sterner moments, far around!
Nor yet for him to hear the plaudits loud:
Ihough, turning in the pauses of his theme
AS one awaking from soundless dream,
de sees the passionate gestures of the crowd
AS an Eolian Tyre when winds go by
Wakes to the unseen airs and straightway
Though all unconscious of its own sweet
strings,
By him unheard, wakes his own melody.
Or as forest pine in nights dim shade,
losses wild arms into the troubled air
Wailing in strains that seem almost despair
Yet knows not or the moanS itself has made.
Or as a low-voiced stream beneath the moon.
Singing its midnight monotone unseen:
Or as q glistening fall mid LEAKAGE green
Flooding with melody the woods of June.
Or as the solemn turret bell whose tones
? Strike the dull air as with the beat of Doom
While the close-gathered mourners round
the tomb
Strive not to veX the dead with futile moans
Yet who shall say that in his soul sublime
Lifted so far above the common earth,
Some inner sense of joy may not have birth
Some music all unknown to things of Time +? i
Some melodies which, floating through that
soul,
Up to the spirit world unconscious soar;
And, garnered in those realms for eyerInore
May meet him when this earth shall cease to
roll?
Denied to him the priceless gift to hear
His own creations. All what glad surprise
When on immortal strings those chords shall
rise
Triumphant, as Eternity draws near!
Greatest of all! and though his star may shine
And earth be filled with gladness through its
beams,
Yet, in Gods ways, a life of sadness seems
The Nemesis of gifts almost divine.

''LOvE Is NOT FOR ME.o

Sing me not the love songs old,
Let your music be
Tuned for one whose heart grows cold,
Love is not for me.
There were songs that could sing
In my spring-tide free;
In my youths sweet blossoming
Love was then for me.
Later-in my summer time
One-ahi fair to see
Taught me that, in manhood's prime
Love was still for me,
But my heart grows sad and cold,

About two weeks ago one of our
most respected young ladies having
had occasion to go down town for
some article of family use, on her re-
turn home was followed by a fell
low who wore a fawn-colored over
coat and high crown hat, who when OPP
posite DR.. Simmons residence sought
to force himself upon the young lady
as escort; though an utter stranger.
She vigorously resisted his insolent
offer, when he reluctantly desisted.
His purpose is readily guessed. The
fellow is spotted-for he was seen be-
fore the occurrence and has been seen
since. Put this down as certainty,
that the citizens of CharIestown,
whilst they will treat with courtesy
all newcomers of character, if there
be any of the baser sort who would
insult and abuse helpless womanhood,
such, if discovered and caught, will be
visited with swift retributive justice.
