LASSIE WI THE BRIGHT BLUE ZEN

Like the ltcht that fa's between
Early morn and midday sun.
Here beside the burn we meet
In our hearts there = no guile
Where the daisy bloom is sweet
Lassie, bide wi me awhile.
Dae We mind wlen last we met
In the glen beside the thorn
All! the memory haunts me yet
o. our joy that simmer morn;
Lift to me your bonnie smile,
Pleasant asthe bloom O. May
Dinna gang frae me awhile,
For my heart is Sair today.
Is 1t wrang for me to speak
o. your brown and bonnie hair,
Rosebud mouth and lily cheek,
Fair as winter shaw is fair?
Is it wrang to press your hand,
Or TO kiss your lips wee?-
rot lady in the land
Half sac near, sac dear to me
Hank the gentle-breasted dove
Cooling on the linden bough,
Calling for her absent love-
She is lonely~heartet now;
And, hardly. in yonder dell,
Lifts linnet on the tree
He'll ma gossip, he'll ma tell
Aught your lips may pledge to me.

Blood Poison.

Contagious Blood Poison has been ap-
propriately called the curse of mankind.
1t is the one disease that physicians can
not cure; their n1ercurial aud potash
remedies only bottle up the poison in
the system, to surely break forth in
more virulent form, resulting in a total
wreck of the system.

TRIED TO KILL GEN. cLAVs WIFE.
1t il Pity the Old General cannot Deal
with CIell Richardson.

1t II Pity the Old General cannot Deal
with Clell Richardson.
The wife of General Cassius M. Clay,
the celebrated Kentuckan, who left
him some time ago, barely es-
capped death the other morn
ing at the hands Of her brother, Clell
Richardson, at whose house she has
been boarding ever since she left the
general two months ago. Richardson
fired two shots at her with a large pis-
toll at a distance of twenty PAGES. and
then fired a shot at Mrs. John Bryant
his mother-in-law, who was with Mrs.
Clay. The young wife ran to the home
of her sister, Mrs. Kelly. where she is
stopping.
The shooting was the result of
quarrel between Clell Richardson and
his brother-in-law, Will Bryant, the
former ella ming that Bryant was pay
ing to much attenti, to General Clay's
young wife. When Mrs. Bryant and
Mrs. Clay expostulated with him C1ell
grew angry and drove the women from
the house. Immediately after they had
left he secured his revolver and going
to the door opened fire Of them. Rich
ardson is a desperate character, and so
far the officers have made no attempt
to arrest him.
