a Dream,

Dream.
A. W. wrsy in Harper's Bazaar.
l dreamt that over the winter world
The winter winds were signing.
And into the orioles empty nests
The flakes of snow were flying.
The vines along the garden wall
With crystal ice were cleaning,
And in the garden. dull and bare,
The summer flowers were dreaming.
The snow lay deep over withered grass,
The skies were cold and gray,
And slowly the dreary night came on
To end the weary day.
woke. High up in the orchard boughs
A hundred birds were singing,
And in the birch-trees pleasant shade
The orioles nests were swinging.
Along the river. tall and green,
i saw the rushes growing,
And daisy petals white as snow
Among the grasses showing.
The flowers held the sunshine bright.
The breezes were at play,
And swiftly the dreamy night came on
To end the happy day.

LITERATURE AND ART.

Is it not high time that meretriclous
literature and sensuous amusement
were utterly abandoned, and that the
people of this country cultivate taste
for literary readings, the musicale and
the legitimate drama?
Mr.. Downing, "the fourth American
actor" and Miss Blair-a former Co.
lumbia lady, by the way, who is an
artistic of exceptional merit captured
Columbia the other night by their
playing in Richard the Lion Hearted" j"
AS a school Of morals, elevated senti-
ment and healthful diversion, all
classes should restore and patronize
the standard drama, and pure and
wholesome reading.
The fearful results of novel reading
on the part Of youth might be averted.
The papers to-day are publishing the
very sad escapade of two boys of a
neighboring county, who armed them
selves with Winchester rifles and in
stolen buggies sought the wild and
woolly West" but were overtaken be-
fore they crossed the State line. They
opened fire upon their pursuers, NOR
tally wounding one of them. The fire
was returned with the result that one
of the boys lost leg. What will be
the last act of this dreadful drama?
