A SCOTCH LOVERS SONG.

I've heard the freclsled navis sing it's sang at
close o. day, ......
While all the woodland echoes rang IN concert
to the lay;
I've heard the seraph lavcrock pour it's matin
hymn on high,
Like the overlooking fountains Of love and
melody;
But swceter is thy gentle voice, soft stealing on
mine ear,
Than oil the tuneful minstrelsy that MARBLES
through the year.
I've marked the pearly dew -drap cling upon the
trembling spray
Rejecting like Il diamond spark the beams Of
opening day;
I've seen the evening star unveil its lamp OF
placid light,
And cheer with silvry radiance the ebon fields
But brighter is thy lovely eye-that eye serene
ly fair
For love has set it's signet in unfadlng luster
there.
I've looked into the crystal stream that MUIR
murs through the lea
And thought its clear pellucid breast the type
of purity;
I've gazed upon the summer sky when not
cloud was near
TO mar it's sweet serenity Of beauty soft and
clear;
But purer are the thoughts that dwell within
thy faithful heart,
above the reach of pride and guile, above the
reach OF art"
In vain I seek for emblems bright to paint thy
charms SO rare;
In all the garniture OF earth there's nothing
half so fair:
The graces in thy person are tremendously
combined,
And ilka heavenly quality adorns thy heart
and mind;
The peace Of soul-that hallowed peace, which
only saints may know
Marks thee above earth'S common lot, earth'S
scenes OF strife and woe.

Evidence That Cats Talk.

An Androscoggin county woman will
have it that animals talk to each other.
And this is the anecdote she relates to
prove her theory: She has two cats.
Dot and Dots youngest, named for his
exploring propensities Christopher Co
lumbus. One morning little bird flew
in at the open window, and falling to
the floor lay painting and dying. Chris
topher Columbus just then appeared in
the doorway. mo, you don't, Chris
TOPPER Colum bus, exclaimed his mis-
tress, and procuring a tiny box she put
the still warm body of the featheredt
mite into it and made deep grave
under the apple tree. Christopher fol.
lowed and looked longingly at the box,
and then went away where he was not
seen for some time. Only Christopher
witnessed the burial, yet an hour after
going out to look at the grave she
found Dot had dug up the box and
Christopher was about to devour the
dainty mouthful. Now if Christopher
Columbus didn't go to Dot. and say:
Mother, there is a little bird buried
under that apple tree; get it for me,
please" how did Dot know there was
bird there?- Lewistown journal.

!. AN HISTORIC CANNON.

The Old zone Horn" q Bone Of COnten-
The wives and daughters were in
great peril, and the property in danger
of being pillaged and burned. The
British had landed at Elizabeth and
word was sent to Gen. Washington,
who was at Dunellen with about five
hundred regular troops. There were
about five thousand Of the British, I'M
der the command of Maj.-Gen. Kuyp-
hansen, and they were advancing to-
ward the interior of the country.
With them were large body of caval-
ry and fifteen pieces of artillery, OF
which this famous old zone horn" was
Springfield, another toward Westfeld,
passing through Roselle and Crawford.
Every man in the country was sum
moned to the support of the homes
that then were thus threatened. One
of the results of the invasion was the
battle of Springfield, in which that
thriving hamlet was completely de-
stroyed.
A detachment of the British attempt
ed to steal from the Presbyterian
church in Westfeld the old bell, which
had been cast from contributions OF
family silver. In the struggle that
ensued the enemy captured the bell,
but left behind them the old cannon,
one horn of which was broken off in
the contest. In the conflict William
and Asariah Clark, two brothers, were
captured. They were taken to New
York and confined in the old sugar
house prison.
During the rest of the war the old
cannon was used to alarm the inhab-
itants in times of danger and to cele-
brate victories, taking, in fact, the Of
fee of the stolen bell. Ever since
then on the Fourth of July the cannon
has doomed forth its note of rejoicing.
Since 1865, however, the cannon has
been stolen several times. In spirit
of mischief the youth of Scotch Plains
first secured it, taking it from the vii
lage green at Westfeld. Then the
Plainfeld boys became envious and Sc
cured it. Then it was taken back to
Westfeld, and again to Scotch Plains.
Six years ago the fremen of Engine
Company No. 2 of Plainfield made a
midnight trip to Westfeld. From be-
meath a heap of refuse in a stable yard
they dug it and brought it to Plain
field, where it has been since. 1t is
only brought out on the Fourth, and in
the intervals between the nations holi-
days none but the favored few know
where it is hidden. Several times dele.
cations from Westfeld have visited
Plainfeld to secure it, but their mis-
sions have been fruitless.
Ry a premature explosion on the
last Fourth two Of the fremen, How
ard Wilson and Patrick McCourt, were
MANNED for life, having their hands
blown off. AS result f. is extremely
doubtful whether the city authorities
will allow it's use again for cele brating
purposes A movement is on foot to
have the historic piece placed in some
museum where it will be safe from
marauding youth and where there will
be no danger of its destruction by toe
heavy charges of powder. To do this,
however, will require the. consent OF
the fireboys, who may not be willing
to part with it-Philadelphia Inuuirer

A MODEL ELEVATED ROAD.

1t Belongs to and Is Run by the Govern
ment of Prussia.
Berlin is the only city in Europe that
has an elevated railway. This belongs
to and is run by the government, as are
most of the railways In Germany. 1t
carried between five million and six
million passengers last year and pays
well on the investment. At certain
hours of the morning and evening,
when it is more availed of by the labor
ing classes, rates of fare are very low;
at other times rather higher than on
the New York elevatefrailways This
railway, which belts the entire city,
must be seen to be appreciated by
those familiar with the New York ele-
waited system and its Disagreement of
the streets. This Berlin street railway
is constructed with as much care and sol.
idity as are any of the great trunk lines
of the United States. It's passenger
stations are more commodi ous and give
better protection to passengers than
the majority of railway stations in the
principal cities of America. Instead of
dis6guring the streets it is an orna-
ment to them. When it runs on a level
with the upper stories of house pas
sengers have no chance to look into
the windows of sleeping rooms, for it
is so managed that the tracks pass by
the side walls, where there are no win
dows. After the route had been sur
veyed and determined upon the govern
ment bought every piece of property
that could be in the least degree dam
aged. The houses were torn down so
as to give clear space; the whole bed
of the sidewalk, and in some instances
of the street was occupied. In order
not to interfere with business, wherever
necessary, new outlets were opened
where old ones were closed. A solid
superstructure of masonry, with ex-
terror walls presenting as finished an
appearance as that of we'll built houses,
and ornamented at the top with arches
and ratings, was constructed. On this
was laid the tracks; laid, as I have
said, with as much care and of as dura-
BILE material as will be found any
where. Going through the most popu-
lous districts, it neither by smoke,
sound nor appearance causes annoy
ance of any character. For miles en-
sconced under the massive roadway are
to be found restaurants and shops
where people eat, drink, sell and buy
without the least consciousness of the
rumble and roar above their heads
