TO THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

How swift this sand, gold-laden, runs!
How slow these feet, once swift and firm
1e came as romping, rosy sons
y Come 5ocund up at college term;
Ye came so jolly, stormy, strong,
Ye drown'd the roll-call with your song,
but now We lean list ming ear
And-"Adsum! Adsum / am here!"
My brave world-bearers OF world
That tops the keystone star Of states,
All hail! Your battle flags are furled
In fruitful peace. The golden gates
Are won. The Jasper walls be yours.
Your sun sinks down yon soundless shores.
Night falls. But 10! your lifted eyes
Greet gold outcroppings In the skies.
Companioned with Sierra's peaks,
Our storm-born eagle shrieks his scOrn
Of doubt or death, and upward seeks
Through unseen worlds the coming morn,
Or storm, or calm, or near, or far,
His eye fixed on the morning star,
He knows, as God knows, there is dawn;
And so keeps on, and on, and on!
So ye brave men. Of bravest days,
Fought on and on with battered shield.
Up bast1on, rampant, till the rays
Of full morn met We on the field.
Ye knew not doubt; we only knew
To do and dare, and dare and do!
Ye knew that time, that Gods first born,
Would turn the darkest night to morn.
Ye gave your glorious years Of youth
And lived as heroes live and die;
1e loved the truth, We lived the truth;
4e knew that towards only lie.
Then heed not now one SerpentS hiss,
Or trait rous, trading Judas kiss,
Let SANDER walloW in his slime;
Still leave the truth to God and time.
Worn victors, few and true, such clouds
As track Gods trailing garments hem
Where Shasta keeps, shall be your shrouds,
And we shall pass the stars in them.
Your tombs shall be while time endures,
Such hearts as only truth secures;

Memoirs OF Rarras.

Hatchett & Gle of Paris, it is said,
are at last to publish the "Memoirs of
Barras,' next to Robespierre, one of the
most distinguished actors in the great
French revolution, which have been an
nounced and expected for more than
of Talleyrand, in the published shape,
an~"nd in anecdotes, curious bits of in
formation, and in scandals relating to his
contemporaries. The memoirs will take
up four large volumes, and will 10 doubt
throw considerable light on the events
preceding as well as following the ninth
ThermidOr, 1884. The chronicle ends
with 1923, the year before Barras' death,
down to which time he kept up his notes.
The reproduction of autographs and por-
traits from the JubinaIde ST AIbin col
lection (the portrait of Danton, by Da-
vid, that of Robespierre of Barras, etc.
will add interest in the publication.

Couldn't Discourage Him.

A case out of the ordinary occurred in
the early legal experience Of Judge Bux-
ton Of North Carolina. When he as a
young lawyer made his first appearance
at the bar. the solicitor, as is customary
in that state, asked him to take charge Of
a case for him. The young lawyer did his
best, and the jury found the defendant,
who was charged with some petty INSIDE
meanor, guilty. Soon after one Of the
jurors, coming round the bar, tapped him
on the shoulder. Buxton" said he, ''the
jury did not think that man was guilty,
but we did not like to discourage young

No Substitutes

For Royal Baking Powder. The Royal"
is shown by all tests, official scientific, and prac-
teal, stronger, purer, and better in every way
than all other Baking Powders. It's superiority
is privately acknowledged by other manufac-
turers and we'll known by all dealers.
If grocers try to sell another baking
powder in place of the Royal" it is because of
the greater profit. This Of itself is good evidence
ofthe superiority Of the "Royal." To give greater
profit the other must be a lower cost POWDER and
to cost less it be made with cheaper and
inferior materials and thus, though selling for the
same give less value to the consumer.
LOOK with suspicion upon every attempt to palm off
upon you any baking powder in place of the
"Royal' There is no substitute for the Royal"

Ia Our Great Grandfather's Time,

a little now and then, with a gentle,
cleansing laxative, thereby removing of
tending matter from the stomach and
bowels, toning up and invigorating the
liver and quickening its tardy action,
and you thereby remove the cause of
multitude of distressing diseases, such as
headaches, indigestion, or dyspepsia,
biliousness, pin1ples, blotches, eruptions,
boils, constipation, piles, fstulas and
maladies too numerous to mention.
If people would pay more attention to
properly regulating the action of their
bowels, they would have less fire.
ouent occasion to call for their doctors
services to subdue attacks of dangerous
diseases.
That, of all known agents to accom-
piish this purpose, DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets are unequaled, is proven by the
fact that once used, they are always in
favor. Their secondary effect is to keep
the bowels open and regular, not to fur
ther constipate, as is the case with other
pills. Hence, their great popularity,
with sufferers from habitual constipation,
piles and Indigestion.

ROSA BONHEUR'S PETS.
Her Lions Love Her and Are FondIed und
Curessed with Freedom.

Her Lions Love Her and Are FondIed und
Curessed with Freedom.
Rosa Bonheur loves the animals she
paints, and is in turn adored by them.
She showed her recent purchase, a
magnificent lion, who purrcd and
writhed like q gigantic cat when his
owner fearlessly strolsed his mighty
head. Then, says the New York Com
mercial Advertiser, showing the head of
most superb specimen of the African
lion transferred to canvas with start
ling realism, she tells the story of
Nero. He was her first pet lion and
was reputed untamably fcrocious and
lived for several years in the garden at
BY. AT last one day Rosa Bonheur
was about to travel and disposed of
Nero to the Jardin des Plantes. She
parted with him reluctantly, for he
was great pet, and would greet her
always with peculiar little note of
welcome.
When she returned from her wan
derings, two years later, she went to
see her Nero and behold a sad sight.
The poor creature had not been so
carefully tended as he was used to be
at BY. Ophthalmia had set in, und
viz VI Ulln( anu dlling,
unhccding the curious crowd that
stared at him. Rosa Bonheur watched
him for a moment and then called;
"Nero" The effect was magical. The
lion rose to his feet, uttered his accus-
toned note of welcome and sprang
toward the well-beloved voice with
such impetuosity that the shock
against the bars sent the sightlcss
brute rolling, stunned, back on the
floor. The great artist took him back,
soothed his last days with attendance
and petting, and finally he died in her
arms at the foot of the staircase at BY,
his huge paws clinging to his mistress
as if imploring her not to forsalze him
in his death struggle, and his last mo-
ment being feeble attempt to lick
the hands that held him with such in
finite tenderness. "You see," said
Rosa Bonheur, as she meditatively ruff
fled her new lions mane, ''to be really
beloved by these wild beasts you must
really love them.''
