AUTUMN'S MIRTH.
BY SAMUEL MINTURN PECK

'Tis all myth that Autumn grieves,
For, watch the rain amid the leaves
With silver fingers, dmly seen,
1t makes each leaf u tambourine
And swings and leaps with eltn mirth
To kiss the brow Of mother earth,
Or, laughing mid the trembling grass,
1t mods greeting as you pass.
Oh hear the rain amid the leaves-
'Tis all myth that Autumn grieves
Ills all myth that Autumn grieyes,
For, list the wind among the sheaves;
Far swecter than tho breath Of May,
Or storied scents Of old Cathay
1t blends ,he perfumes rare and good
OF spicy pine and hickory wood,
Aud with n voice as gay as rhyme,
| 1t prates of riiled mint and thine.
Oh! scent the wind among tho sbeaves =
'ris all n my th that Autumn grieves!
'Tis all q myth that Autumn gricves,
Behold the wondrous web she weaves,
BY vicwless hands her thread is spun
OF evening vapors shyly won.
Across the grass from side to side
A myriad unseen shuttlos glide
Throughout the night, till on the heigh
Aurora leads the laggard light:
Behold the wOndrous web she weaves-
'Tis all q myth that Autumn grieves!

DR.. J. B. Gambrell Writes About Politics
In the Northwest.

From a letter OF DR.. J. b. Gam.
brell, from Minneapolis to the Me.
ridian Tribune, the following is
taken:
Politics in this Norihwe estern
country seems 10 be running with
The bridle off. The editor of the
Prohibition paper here tells nc
that between tie Prohis and the
Peoples par,y the enormous Re.
publican majority in Minnesota
may disappear. Republicans in
Iowa, as | came through, confessed
that their chances are sim in that
State. Wisconsin has been given
over by many TO the Democrats
and Populiles, and the States in
the Rockies have fallen from Re.
publican grace. The Democratic
press is notably aggressive, and
the Republican press is apologize.
The force bill is a burden on its in.
veniors. l have not found a man
to endorse it, and this is more re.
markable when it is considered
tha! the great church am supply.
ing has but two or three Demo.
Gratis in il. The force bill is a
Godsend to the Democrats up here.
The Republicans are much inter.
es,ed in Weaver's Southern trip.
They want him to do all his mighty
works in the South. A Republi.
can in Iowa, returning from a sol.
dlers' reunion SAID: III know
Weaver. | am glad he has gone
South. He is a smooth, slick ras.
cal. A bigger liar never lived.
He went over Iowa decelving The
farmers and tore our party all 10
pleces.'
A company Of gentlemen ques.
toned me very closely about the
new movement IN the South, es.
pecially in Alabama. They thought
that the fusion with the financial
help the Republican give the
movement, would surely carry that
State. and some of them seemed
a good deal disgusted' when told
them Chns McGee's visit with his
check book about made Alabama
sale for Cleveland.
/ was asked a great deal about
our new Constitution, and it is
gratifying to find that everybody
approves 1t when it is explained.
And it is gratifying too, 10 find
that the impression is general now,
that the South Is on the eve of a
great development which will
rival, if not ouistrip the miracle of
Western development. In this
case, thinking so will do much to-.
ward making it so, and the future
of the South will be helped great.

that Secretary Elkins said wise

The way in which the word "bu.
reau" became applied TO articles
of furniture intended for literary
purposes Is rather curious. 1t was
the custom in The days when writ.
ing was done on parchment and
when bookbinding was an expen-
sive luxury, for those who were
connected with literary pursuits to
have on their table a piece of cloth
Of thick nature to prevent the
bookblnding receiving any injury.
This piece Of textile fabric, origi-
naily of wool, bore in France the
name Of bureau, and in course of
time that name has attached itself
to articles Of furniture which have
a space protected by some mate
rial of writing operations.
