The Tellurium Mine.
The public hss heard but little concern
ing this mine during the past year. 1 The
ow hers hare preferred to work on.patiently
and steadily, overcoming the difficulties
which stand In the pathway of all incipient
enterprises, without making any great
public display. - Jbvery inch of progress
that has been made in the tunnel being
cut in the mine, has been . disputed by
rock ' of the most obdurate character,
so at best, but a few feet could be made in
a day. Work has gone forward steadily
with a determination that is commendable.
There !s no doubt about the richness of the
Tellurium mine, and every one - will watch
with interest the progress made towards
lis substantial developement. Mr E.
Chase gives flattering accounts of its value
and as he has carefully examined and made
several descriptive reports concerning it,
can soeak authoritively. We expect to
publish a description ot the mine and of
the work done in a few weeks.

ILK PICNIC.
Last Saturday morning the day com
meneed with indications of cool and pleas
ant pieale weather. Soon tne roads lead
ing to the Granger's grove, oa Deer creek,
were lined with ; joyone groups . on their
wai to the picnic. - No better selection of
grounds could have been made, and when
the- members of the various Sabbath
schools had assembled every' arrangement
had been completed to render the occasion
one of unalloyed pleasure. The exercises
of the day were opened with tht beautiful
song, "Shall we gather at the River," by
the .congregation; prayer by Rev. A. D.
Man'ion; eong."Sailors, Pull for the Shore,"
by the congregation, " Here came the ora
tion by Hon. Binger Hermann, which was
a masterpiece of thought and eloquence.
Sweeping thruugn his entire disocuse was
a living stream of ideas, enlivened with
outbursts of crystal ized reflections, and
Bipping here and there in the fie d of tis
remarks the choice perfumery of rare flows
ers, he cast it, like a. shower of sunshine,
over the heads of his audience. Mr. Hers
m n may well feel proud of bia powerful
effort as It will long be remembered by all
those who heard him. After the oration,
'Sweet Bye and By" was rendered In an
excellent manner. Then came refresh
ments and amusements.
The afternoon exercises were opened by
an sddnss Rev. by T. B. White, of Albany,
followed by short remarks, and seasoned
with singing. .
The day passed off in a most agreeable
manner. The music under the superinv
tendency of MissLouette Grubbe, deserves
th highest praise, and a credit to the lady.
The success of the picnic is dun to the un
tiring labors of Uev. Bell, assisted by R.
L. McFarland. P. Benedict, J. S. Cock el

FAME'S GOAL.
BT WILLIAM WATCRKll
Oh! Fame! Famel thou illusive sprite,
Thee have I sought by day and night.
t But from my view thy form did fade,
!T1 .. C.H.. .... Sla ulRr. ..A
When I thought toapptoach thee.
In thought by day and dreams at night,
I painted thee in colors bright,
I longed to catch from thee one smile.
That would my droiping head beguile,
Acd buoy up my sinking hopes.
I voiively bowed at thy shrine.
And thee I worshiped as divine;
I at thy feet adoring kneeled.
And for thy blessing aDpealed.
To cheer me on my way.
My parents dear their living sold,
To gain f ir me a purse of gold
And in my ear i his strry told :
"To gain a nam yon must be bold
And feariess s a knight.
"Go learn he art of nations strife,
nd though a mothe., daught r, wife,
Shall sorrow all their days of lifcj.
Because thy fell destroying knite
In war thei.' kindred bled J
"And caused the orphans' tears to flow,
Or loads a sinter's heart with woe '
If thou the conflict shall survive,
In fame thou shalt forever live,
Full embalmed in glory.
Or it thv heartless man ial is.
And more inclined to subtilities,
Then study artiul sophistries
And deep abstruce philosophies,
To prove that wrong right.
"Thus by a deep and cunning art,
You 11 captivate the sinrpie Heart
Ot staple folks, who, with eager cries.
Will laud you to tue very skies,
And swear tbat tuou art great.
MORAL THB GOAL. ,
Great in war, or great in peace,
Because you did the people fleece;
Increased yonr wealth and magnified ,
Ia wrong yourself, and then you died.
