Dedicated to Frederick Douglass)
And art thou gone, heroic heart,
Who fought for Freedoms cause;
Who always played the manly part
Dciied the tyrant's laws.
Hail. my noble. honest friend.
Who never knew fear,
And worked for virtue to the end,
For truth from year to year.
That glorious voice is silent;
No more to thrill the brave
Or utter words defiant
To rouse the serf and slave.
The slave no more pollutes our land;
The planters lash is still;
Sweet Liberty, 50 great and grand,
Shines over stream and hill.

Upon the upland plain.

FORTUNE in A CIGAR.

John Sanderson, wealthy merchant of
Newville S. c., died last week, leaving his
entire estate to his wife. Philip Shoemaker
a-nephew, was cut off withot a cent, which
bitterly disappointed him, rs he had con-
fidently expected to be richly remembered.
His share of the estate was cigar-only
this and nothing more.
Yesterday the will was probated and the
nephew was formally presented with the
cigar named in the will, which he accepted
as matter of form. 1t was unusually
large and very fat. During the proceeding
he lighted the cigar, as he said, to get
something out of the old man. After it
had burned about half minute an object
fell from the end of the cigar and rolled
under table. 1t was hshed out, and to
everyone's astonishment, proved to be Il
splendid diamond ring.
Shoemaker hastily investigated the rest
Of the not not over-fragrant Havana and
found that the inside Of the cigar was
literally packed tight with loose precious
stones. The whole collection when sum
med up was found to be worth fully ten
thousand dollars.

A METAL $40 BILL,

Something quite remarkable came into
the redemption division Of the Treasury at
Washington short time ago. 1t was q
thin plate Of silver about two feet long, in
to the surface OF which so silver certfi-
cate had been passed in such a manner as
incorporate its substance actually with that
OF the metal. 1t was brand-new bill, and
in the process had been squeezed out to
about twice its original size. Nevertheless
it was perfectly recognizable.
A statement accompanied it to the effect
that workman in silverware factory had
dropped the bill accidentally upon the
pete OF silver as the latter was passing
through rolling machine. This explana-
ton being satisfactory a fresh $40 certifi-
cate was returned to the loser.
