It Cannot BeSaid Prentice: “It canoat be that earth is man’s only abiding place. Jit cannot be that our life ifc a bubble east upon the ocean of eternity, to find a moment upon its surface, and then go into nothingness and darkness forever. Else, why is it that the high and glcrious aspirations which leap like angols from the temple of our hearts are forever wondering abroad unsatisfied? Why is it that the rainbow and the cloud ome over with a beauty that is not of earth, and then pass off am.’ leave u-tom • o . their fa ted loveliness? Wbv is it that the stars which hold th-ir festiv 1 around tile midnight thcom-. are se above tl.e gra-p of our limited (.unities, forevei mocking us w’th their unapproachable t’O y? And finally, whj is it that brig t forms of hum a beauty are presented to 1 the view. ..udtljen taken from us, leaving the thousand streams ot the affections to fli w back it, Alpine torrents upon our heads. We are born for a higher d stiuy than that of earth. There is a realm where thesiars will l e spread out Jbefor? us like the islands that slumber on the oeean; and where ;h beautiful beings that here pass befoie us like visions will stay in our pres ence forever.” Not long ago an officer of the London S -hool Board was crossing Co; - vent Garden Market at a late hour, when he found a little fellow making his bed foi the night in a f’-uit basket. “Would you not like to go to school and be well cared for?”asked the official. “No,” replied the urchin. “But do you know that I am one of the people who are authorized to take up little boys whom I find as I find you, and t ike them to «• h >ol?” “I knows you are, old chap, if you find them in the sueets; but this uere is not street. It is private property; and if you in terferes with my liberty rhe Duke of Bedford will be down upon you I knows the hact as well as y< u.” A poor Irishman at Rochester owed a rich man some money, and was unable to pay. The rich man obtained judgment and execution, bur there was nothing on which the sheriff c’od levy. The Irishman had two large pigs, but the law allows a man two. and. the sheriff could not take them. The rich man then bought two little pig’s, had them presented to the Irish man, and thereupon took his larger ones. Literary’ young man at a party; “Miss Jones, have you seen Crabbe’s Tales?” Young lady, scornfully: “I was not aware that crabs had -till-4,” Literary young man, covered with oo ifusion:“lbegyi u pardon,ma'am; I snould have said read Crabbe’s Tales!” Young lady, angrily scornful: “And I was not aware that red crabs had tails either.* Exit young man. A correspondent wants to know if there was ever a dam thrown across the Mississippi. Oh, yes, lots of ’em. During the war Unionists and Con federates used to come dow.u on opposite sides of the river and throw “dams” across at each other frequently. The proposition to reduce the salaries of Circuit Court Judges to $1,506 is absurd. If the salary of a judicial oflii-er is reduced to the income of a flf h-rate p»o we may expect to iiiid oin benches encumbered wi h mth-rato ly njcis.—Delphi Times.

Isn’t the salary-grab account so long held against rhe Democracy of liidu na, i>y re’ason of rheir preference for Mr. Vooihees about squared by the election o p Logan, the eminent R -publican salary grabber to me Senate from Illinois?—Delphi Times. rhe Emperor of Germany is now wonderfully w, 11 end vigorous, t o’ still carrying his arm in a sling.

The Colossal Bronze Statue of Victory wli.cb stands in Ji * Park, a» Lowi-.'l, bes r ti e iomo of the first so iiers that fell in the revolution, is a ! ting and b. autiful tribute of art. It is one of the first objects sought by strang.-rs visiting our sister city, which indeed many visit purposely to see this elegant o j. ct of high art. It was obtained fiom the King of Bavaria by Dr. J. C. Ayer, to whom his Majesty was especially gracious in acknowledgmen: -f w : his remedies are reputed to have done for the suffering sick. It was donated by the Doctor to the City of Lowell as a permanent and speaking emblem of the victories both of Science and Arms. —Hagerstown (Md.) Press. SPECIAL NOTIC BIS1 Li 22 RAT ,7GT Dr. L. D.
