TcnnysOn'- Last Lines.

Tennyson'- Last Lines.
To the Editor of The Evenn- Star:
Peculiar interest attaches to one of the an
thems sung at the burial Of Tennyson, entitled
1.-The Silent Voices" not only because it had
been set TO music by Lady Tennyson, but be-
cause the ten lines of which it is composed
were really the last poem of the departed lau-
reate, being written on his bed of death just
before Crossing the Bar"
Being copyrighted, we cannot quote all the
lines, indicating, as they do how completely
the poets thoughts were beyond this receding
earth; for, after a tender allusion to the low
land-ways now left behind and to the sunlight
that is gone, the bard rises to loftier note and
sings:
Call me rather. silent voices.
Forward TO the starry track
Giiunnsrins up the heights beyond me;
The burden of these lines penned Just before
death, explains striking incident in Tenny-
sons last hours We are told that when he
nearing his departure he requested his
wife to bring to him his favorite copy of
Shakespeare. He deliberately opened the
volume at the dirge in "Cymbelne," and placed
his hand upon the lines.
To many persons reference TO Shakespeare at
such time seemed, to say the least, quite mop
perfume; but when we call to mind the death
bed utterance % the anthem, We can see how
perItcliN IN nlb spirit was Win the Sentl-
ment of that dirge.
We have looked in vain among the many i'm
pressive notices of the laureate's last hours
for some quotation Of the dirge which so lin
Gered in the memory and occupied the last
earthly thought Of the master singer.
Fear no the heat O. the sun.
Nor the furious winters RACES
Thou thy worldly task hast done
Home art gone and ta'en thy wages;
Golden lads and girls ali must
As chimney sweepers come to dust!
Fear more the frown o. the great,
Thou art past the tyrant's stroke;
Care more to clpthe and eat;
t. thee the reed is as the oak;
The scepter learning. physic. must
All follow this and come 10 dust"

News From Mcdowell.

A prominent young merchant of
this city had occasion to take trip
to West Tennessee the other day, and
on his return home he fell in with
j. II. Mcdowell on the train. Nc
Dowell was talking to a companion,
did not know who the merchant
was and proceeded to unbosom him
self to his sympathizer. The sympa-
thizer said "There is one district
down in Obion county that will give
Buchanan 200 votes"
"Pshaw," said the coal oil chief,
"that is nothing; up here in mont
cry county they have counted noses
and Buchanan has 5000 votes ma
jority."
The merchant has not yet recover
ed from the shock.
If the Third party people expect to
make anything by this kind of mis-
representation they are sadly in err
ror. Buchanan as Third party can
didate in this county would not poll
300 votes.

A SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR.
so Must Be Declared the Harlequin Par
ty Last Night.

The harlequin party at Idaho
Springs last night was well attended.
The laage dining room was cleared
away, one portion of which was oc
cupied by the spectators in chairs,
and between them and the other end
of the room white screen was
stretched. Those guests suspected of
having any histrionic ability were
requested to retire behind the screen.
Here they were coached as to their
parts, which consisted of panto-
mimic performance in such manner
as to throw shadows on the screen.
The spectators were convulsed with
mirth ut some Of the sights on the
canvass. The funniest thing of all
was to see John Rice initiate den
fist. For forceps he used a
pair of coal tongs, and for Il
patient he had Gus Wright. To see
Rice in profile Juggling away at the
tooth, to hear the patients groans,
and finally to witness the drawing of
the tooth and to see and hear it fall
to the floor with thud, were enough
to bring down the house. 1t was so
funny that the scene had to be repeat
ed.
Following this were succession of
amusing games, in which all engaged
good.naturedly, and at times hilar-
iously. Gossip" for instance, Great

youngsters. This is favorite game
with Pete Johnson, and he distin-
guished himself last night. Some of
