BT TAW It was coy,caIin, fragrant night In Summer time, When through the dusky bosh no whisper Save thirsty meadows mstung far me rain, i ir woodlands musing with a sell and sleepy rhyme. A night when one would dream of dear and lovely things; or tender siH ana at 'tilts; Of Orphean lyre or thmaody of rates; or songs and sighs and stars and liquid mur muringa. Thus musing, as I wandered o'er (he drowsy lawn, I came upon nmarble basin whits. And sat mo down hay an a the fountain-sprite- licyond her damp, gray drapery In the nlght breese blown. And as I eat, I looked np; to! there gleamed a bull, A sweet-toned bell that once I need to know, I'P In yon star-lorn belfry long ago. To-night the nakedness of heaven becomes it well! "O Voice of old!" I cned-"thou dear dead Voice of old. What sfonld I not to hear thy mellowing strain Call back the scattered leaves or life again Into tbe Book, between the asterisk! of gold!? Vet hew eonld It reply, that long-disused bell. From which the rotted rapes hnng scarcely down; Whose be lfry-ladder,ln the desk-light brown, Bent as the hastening spiders spun their webs a adieu? Bat hark! Was that tbe whisper or some voice I knew, It was so full, so sodden, and so sweet T Nay! some far-distant bell with languid beat Rolling np bows Into the horoscope of bine. Attain ! Ah, sweet delay of rapturous surprise That weary bell complaining far away. With silver hammers in tbe shades astray. Had touched nay voiceless bell to whispered harmonies. Back rushed the tide of memory fri .-n isles of old. And through the night some nameless angel came. Numbered lute' scattered leaves with pen of naews. And wrote between the stammering asterisks of gold! Wilt-ne'er at soft, still nbrhtlenance to hear some far-off bell, melesHesM and alear, I thJnk bow many towers In all the land Kei p mystic measure to the ringer's ban I. And .since oar lives, like living bt.'lf, must ring lu member, like n bird tbe echoes w!n !

Why will young. men hover around the light that dazzles and disappoints? wny will tbey talk over aud over again the "soft nonsense" which their sires ami graudsiree did before them to gener ations of fair ladies less schooled lu the eold philosophy of modern society? Oc casionally their rashness brines its re warn, borne time ago a handsome. datbing, gallant youth a favorite with tbe sex left Chicago for Baltimore, where he met a friend In high social tanaing, who, very soon, made Dim ac quainted with some of tbe most beautl ful women of that beauty-producing town. Baltimore is famous for .Its women and its oysters. Tbe latter are sometimes out of season, hut the former never. Consequently, there is always some, attraction In the Queen of the Chesapeake. Everybody gives the palm to Baltimore's belles that is, everybody who has not got a sweetheart some where eje. Our friend from Chicago attended a wedding recently in the Monumental City, and there met a be witching maiden, rare and radiaut as Eve ere Adum claimed her. The usual commonplaces led to a conversation that became somewhat significant. What with her pearly teeth, luminous eyes, graceful form aud luxuriant hair, not to speak of tbe winning tones of her voice, tbe Chicago youth became quickly fas cinated, and was impudent enough lo express hi rat-elf upon tbe question of danger to bachelor peace iu a city tbat boasted so many lovely daughters. Of course, when ibis kind of language is addressed to a woman, It is but natural to expect that she will appropriate tbe spirit or it to uersen. The damsel listened quietly, and at the end of the dissertation said she knew the Colonel's friend and himself were equally afflicted with the tender passion, aud that iu the morning she would send Ibe former a recipe that would cure the disease. No more was thought about the matter until tbe subjoined commu nication, in the young lady's handwrit ing, but not signed, arrived at the hotel where the friends were stopping : 'An Infallible Remedy for the Passion Iiove. First, vou must open the brain of consideration and let out tbe blood of immoderate atlectiou. Then administer tbe following prescription, viz.: Take of tbe blossoms of sound judgment, one handful; of jtatienee, five bandfuls; one handful of the root of understanding; twelve ounces of resolution, prudence and discretion; five ounces of dislike and resentment. Let them simmer to gether In tbe brain eight and forty hours; then strain from it the dregs of melancholy into one spoonful or rorget fulness ; sweeten a dose of the former with tbe sugar of contentment iuto the heart, and stop it with the cork of in diilerence. The ingredients are to be found at the House of Iteeolution, next door lo Reason, in Contentment, the town of Fortitude, or at any ofllce Iu Courtship street, Marrlagetown." The effect of this document on the lovers was not soul-lnsnlring. They say that soeh philosophy might answer for a convent or a monastery, but lias no place in the living, loving, earnest world to which they belong. Chioago Time. J lst Tit k K. A case i n vol v i ng tiie title to some marsh lands was recently ou trial before Jodge Crafje, of Oakland, Oil., wbo is appropriately named, as lie is fix feet four inches iu bei;lit. Sev eral of the defendants were named Bird, While the lawyers were waiting for the court to open, oue suggested that there ought to be a change of venue on the ground of relationship, Inasmuch as the Judge was soeh n prominent member of the bird family, -un, no,- saiu an other; "tbe case involves swamp land, ami be is just tbe oue to trade through it." Wl cat fiHpnrl sail X rwili more than audit else was that he received no appflealioii for free naseee. And what astonished the public after tbe llood was, that tbe veteran navigator never. tried to get up a complimentary beueflt for himself. '-Do veu think a man can run a circus RDtl be a Christian?" asked tbe serious man. "Well. I don't know yes." "lo you think Barnuru, for instance, can go to heaven 7" "X tlilufc he lias a goou show," was the reply. Clarenee K. Davis, who has been In- dialed in Chicago on two charges of oigamy, is now claimed by uo less than twenty-three women whom be married at varioae times and places and deserted. The newspaper owes its origin to the custom which prevailed in Venice in the f'xth century of reading aloud In tn pnhlie places a manuscript of the news of tbe day prepared by authority. A pubterranean river has been discov ered in fc.au Claire county, Wisiftnsln, The Modern Fraud. Tbe bassst fraud on earth is agrienl tore; tbe deadliest ignitatuM that ever glittered to beguile ami dazzled to he tray is agriculture. I speak with feel ing on this subject, for I've beeu rIU tered and beguiled aud dazzled and de stroyed by this same arch deeefver. She has made me a thousand promises aud broken every one of them. She baa promised me Summer squashes, and tbe worms have eaten them ; Winter squashes, and the bugs have devoured them. She has promised cherries, and the curculio ha? slung them, aud they contain living thing', uncomely to the eve and unsavory lo lite taste. She has prouilseu slrawoerrie, ami tne young chickens have devoured them, aud the eye oannot see them. She has promised tomatoes, ami oh I liens nave encom passed them, ami the hand cannot reach them. Xo wonder Cain killed his brother: he was a tiller of the grruind. The wonder is that he didn't kill hi father, aod then weep because he hadn't a grand father to kill, Ko doubt his early rose potatoes, for wliicli be pahl Adam ? UO a barrel, had been cut down by bugs from tbe headwaters of the Euphrates. His Pennsylvania wheat hud been Win ter killed, aud wasn't worth cutting. His Norway oats had goue to straw, ami would tint yield live pecks per acre; and black Spanish watermelons had beeu stolen by boys, who had pulled up tbe vines, broken down bis patent picket fence, and written scurrilous doggerel all over iiis back gate. No wonder he felt mad when he saw Abel whistling along with his fine French merinos worth $8 00 a bead, ami wool going up every day; no wonder lie wanted to kill somebody, and thought he'd practice on Abel, aihi oau-s getting tiruiiK was was not at all surprising; he had become a liusnanuraan; lie had thrown away magnificeut 'opportunities; he might have had a monopoly of any profession or business. Had he studied medicine, there would not have been another doe tor within a thousand miles to call him quack, and every family would have bought a bottle or Noah's Compound Kxtract of Gopher Wood and Antl- Deluge Syrup. As a politician, he would have carried his own ward solid, and controlled two-thirds of the dele gates in every convention. As a law yer, he would have beeil retained in every case tried In the Ararat quarter sessions, or tho Old Ark high court of udmiralty. But heihrew away all these advantages aud took (o agriculture; for a long time the ground wus so wet that be could raise nothing but sweet lhig aud bulrushes, aud these at last became a drug iu the market. What wonder that, when be did get hall a peck of grapes ttiai were not stung to death by Japhet's honey bees, he should have made wine and drowned Ills sor rows in a Mowing bowl. The fact is, agriculture would demor alize a saint. I was almost a saint when I went'into it; lam a demon now. I am at war with everything; I fight my self out of bed at four o'clock, when all my better nature tells me lo be still till seven; I fight myself In the garden to work like a brute, wjien reason and in stinct tells me to stay In tbe house and enjoy myself like a man. I tight the pigs, the chickens, the moles, the birds, the' bugs, tbe worms everything in which there is the breath of life; I fight the docks, the burdocks, the mulleins, tbe thistles, the grapes, tbe weed the whole vegetable kingdom; I fight tbe heat, the frost, the ruin, the hail in short, I fight the universe, and get whipped iu every battle. A JVinter Farmer. Antiquity of Wheat. Wheat has been in use for bread since the earliest antiquity. Its origin cauuot be authen tically traced, nor are the millions who use it much concerned ou that head, as long as tbey have plenty of the Hour which the nourishing article produces. It was introduced into this country, ac cording to a writer iu the American Miller, In. 1539. -As to its cultivation, this may be true, but there is good rea son to believe that it was brought over with Columbus In one or his voyages at an earlier period. Its discovery is at tributed to have been uy chance ou tins continent, the story of wbloh runs as follows : A slave of Cortcz found a few grains of wheat in a parcel of rice, and showed them to his master, who ordered them to be planted. Tho result showed that wheat would thrive well on Mexi can soil, and to-day one of tho finest wheat valleys iu the world is found near the Mexican capital. From Mexico the cereal found its way lo Peru. A mouk introduced it at Quito, Ecuador ; aud it Is said Ibut the jar which contained the seed Is still preserved by the monks of Quito. Wheat was Introduced into the present limits of tbe Uuited States con temporaneously witli tho settlement of the country by tbe English aud Dutch. txTcir.
