A SONG oE rHE RACE.

It's a gallop. my hearty, the llfe-race
to win,
But-what does it mean when the rae
ers are in?
Through the night and the blast
We rode far and rode fast.
But what means the race to the rae
ers. at last?
The Ilder is wea-v-
The Dark whispers Rest
Silence and dreams,
And a rose for his breast.
It's eallop, Iny hearty-the hfe-race
that seems
An echo of Phantoms that race through
wild dreams!
And, the racers that ride
Ger the track, dim an wide,
Behold not the pale, phantom-ho hosts at
their side,
The boats that, grown weary,
Heard Night whisper, Rest"
And reaped from the race
But a rose for the breast!
It's a gallop. my hearty,-Break bolts
-shatter bars
On the track where we trample the
dust of dead stars,
No! Ni@ht comes apace:--
Take the rose for the race.
And the shadows fall soft on each
still dreaming face!
The rider is weary
Keen thorns at his breast;
Gods stars light him home

Ilcation was the result of q curious
race for priority. Gray completed the
poem some time in 1850. but had no
immediate intention of publishing it.
A copy. however, found it's way into
the hands Of Mr.. Owen, the publish
er and proprietor of the Magazine Of
Magazines. Il recently established peri.
odical, and he wrote to the poet stat
ing his intention of printing II in his
magazine, and asking his cooperation.
The proposal was not at all agreeable
to Gray, but, seeing that publication was
inevitable. he wrote at once to Horace
Walpoe explaining the circumstances
and asking him to get Dodsley to, print
1t Immediately, but without the mn
thor's name. Walpole handed the
poem to Dodsley on Feb. u, 1851, and
OH the 10th copy was in Gray's hands
at Cambridge, so that it was probably
published in London on the 18th or
18th. The Magazine of Magazines for
FEBRUARY. according to the then Gus
tom, was published toward the end of
the month, and may have come out on
the same day. The rival editions must

up the country with glaciers and bury ing the gold fields beneath a mountain of ice.
 There is in that country what the gold diggers term the first. second and third bedrocks. The first two strata mentioned are sometimes soft and broken and the gold in those places sinks to a third stratum. The ground being frozen in some places hundreds of feet deep the method of sinking employed is to thaw the ground by steam sent down the shaft through pipes with perforated ends or points at tachcd. after which the dirt is easily removed. MT. Thompson was In this manner sinking for the third bedrock and was down 250 feet when he ad- Justed his steam points one Saturday night. The next day he found he had thawed out an underground river and his shaft was half full of water. By Monday morning he had an artosian well on hand and the water was food ing everything in the vicinity. This claim is on EldOrado creek. thirteen miles from Dawson City and it was winter time The water flowing from the well began freezing and at once the formation of a glacier began. It was not q long time till this glacier reached half way to Dawson City and the authorities to protect mining and other property and to retard the rapid growth of this icefield, which bid fair to get so big it would never melt had to step in and close up the well tenn rorarily. MT. Thompson at once began negotiations with the government at Ottawa and finally secured a franchise for selling water. and also fixed his well up so it could be restrained from working overtime. He now has some thing better than a gold mine.
