THE RIVER LEE.

Ny own dear native river,
On whose fair banks strayed,
And whiled away youths playtime,
In cool monasti, shade.
And heard the mournful legend
1t murmurs on its way
Past ruined castles hoary
And converts in decay.
Ofthe HaxoD's trail along it,
OF pillage and of slaughter,
OF rapine and sacrilege,
So speaks the crystal water.
Athwart it low, rich meadows
The long dark shadows fall,
OF ruined tower and Belly
And converts ancient wall.
Those peaceful homes OF piety
Which crumbling we have seen.
direful work of ruin wrought
By England's virgin queen.
mid tears and signs and sorrow
Did those ancient fanes decay,
But like phoenix from his ashes
They are spring!ng up to-day.
And earlier than the Saxon
You may track the northern Dane:
Lock up and see the ancient fort
That frowns upon the plain.
There stands old Blarney castle,
Yet naughty in decay:
While the salmon in his crystal home
IS sporting long the way d..
There the mountains silvery torrent
BUSHES to the rivers side
And the ancient bells Of Shandon
Fling their music DER its tide.
There the cnckoo In the autumn eve
Pours forth its mellow lay,
And the thrush upon some tottering ledge
Sings down the parting day.
My own dear native river,
How oft think of tb ee,
And long to see thy silver wave,
My own dear river Lee!

The Ballymahon Board of Guardians,

the Local Government Board for their
generous" offer of seed potato loan,
but respectfully decline it on account Of
the difficulty of collecting seed rates in
the past, and the burden which further
lean would impose on the rate payers.
The experience of the last seed rate, and
the jobbery it gave rise tn, is still fresh

A Floral Detective of Long AGO,

In early times the Dutch farmers of
the up river farms Of New York had an
ingenious way of recovering pocket
knives that might have been dropped or
mislaid while plowi:iS or gardening was
going on. Cutlery was not as cheap then
and abundant as in these days; so the
farmers took the thrifty precaution of
keeping two or three sunflower seeds in
their knife handles. Then if the knives
fell upon broken ground and could not
be readily found, the owners would wait
until the seeds sprouted, and an isolated
sulifiowcr stalk CT blossom in field or
patch would signalize the possibility Of
missing articles being at it's root.
True, the owner did not always realize
the result of the scheme, because pass
ing boy who understood the token often
'got there before the planter.-New

DAY OF THE DEAD IN PARIS.

Curious Scenes During the Pilgrimage to
the Grayeyards.
Paris, it is said, thinks once a year Of
those whom she has lost. The truth is
she thinks very much oftener of them,
for their touching devotion to the men,
ory Of the dead is one Of the finest sides
of the French character.
The day after All Saints is the "day
of the dead''-the jour des morris.
Then Parisians visit the great ceme-
teries - Pere Lachaise, Montmartre,
Montparnasse, Passy, Vanguard and
Saint Omen. 1t is curious sight to see
the crowds sweeping like torrent along
the bou1evards of Bellevue and Menil-
montant between the two rows of booths
piled up with emblems of grief and
piety.
About half the number are simple
sightseers-badaubs who are attracted
by any crowd, and who can be readily
recognized by their indifferent and gap
ing air and empty hands.
The others, in mourning habits, carry
in their hands wreaths of everlasting
flowers, sprigs of lockwood and Sew, bou-
quets, medallions under glass, with q
weeping willow and some artless in
scriptlon a ma mere, a notre perc, etc.
The cemeteries themselves present an
unaccustomed spectacle. The entrances
arc guarded by mounted guardes de Pa
ris i'll full uniform; policemen are sta
toned to regulate the circulation in the
interior, and around the cemetery hawk
ers of all sorts spread out their wares in
tempting array-immortelles for the
dead, cakes and petit blep-cheap wine
for the living.
The exterior boulevards are too small
for the crowd of mourners, and the inns
and wineshops too small for the GUS

Malignant Fairy.
Philadelphia Record.


A malignant fairy has been making
the greatest confusion in the theo-
ries of the protec,ionists and the free
silverites alike. The protectionist
cannot understand how prices of
manufactured commodities should
rise and wages of labor advance un-
der wicked free trade tariff. To
the silverites the advance in the
prices OF wheat cotton and other ag-
ricultural products under a gold
standard is quite as great a mystery.
The simple explanation is that the
theories OF the protectionists and Of
the silverites both are false ard in
capable of standing the test of reason
and experience. Truth is the great
genius that has made skies and sew.
