The poet and the Flies.

The Poet and the Flies.
To the Editor
Ideas ny fast, bu. hies ny faster
The poet to fret and spite
lila mightiest thoughts these nends can master
And put them at once to flght.
The nles get the best OF dreams and rest
And ruin a summer night.
He carries TO bed roll OF paper
ON which to lndlte his dreams
But look at the flies that round it csper.
And darken his fancy's CLEANS!
As oft in gust. a cloud OF dust
O'ershadows the bright suns beams.
The ny-psper sold by srocer's prentice
Can never attract like this!
The poet exclainis: what plaques are sent us"
The flies with lazy buzz, say. "Bliss!'
Though sconers malign the poet hne.
Flies worship his frenzled phiG!
The song OF the files at night sound sadder
TO him than 3 snoring nose
And II he Is mad. they make him mAdder;
They goad him to rave in prose
His songs they outsing; with leg and wing
They worry hs head and toe.i
And into hi. eye. Oh. my! they fly. sir:
And buzz in his flowing hair
TIL wildly he yearns to die. as die, sir.
His exquisite dreams In air,
The Summer he hates Jack Frost, wegates!
Approach and dlspel despair!

COUNTY COURT.

State VS.. Orrin Schoolcraft is the
only criminal case yet heard. This
was case Of assault with intent to
commit rape. The victim was Inez
Weeks, aged fifteen, a girl which
Schoolcraft took into his family
about six years ago to bring up, she
being at that time town charge. The
case seemed to be bad one. Jury
found him guilty and he was sentenc-
ed to state prison for two and one
half years.
On Thursday the court took recess
until Wednesday after town meeting,
March Z, when the state cases are to
be tried and the dockets cleared.
