Glossy, slender. rushes, -
Under willow’bt'ishes,
And flags that interlink.
There flit with gauzy wings,
Bright dainty jeweled things,

Flooded with golden light,
Drift on the water fair.
Unfolded lilies, too,
Glimmer upon the blue,
With gold and silver sheen,
While shadows come and go,

Rocked in a tiny boat,
Among the lily blooms,
Oh sweet, delicious thrill
That haunts my pulses still,
Front breathing their perfumes.
The sunsets lumber glow,
Upon the lake below,
.Shlmmers with splendor bright,
In shafts of rosy tints,
Amethystine glints, .

Twilight unveils the stars,
The distant wondrous stars,
Wheelin in space remote;

Many a tender and faithful heart will
feel a sharp pang at the news of the death
of Lady Jane Franklin, the devoted Wife of
the late Sir John Franklin, the lamented
Arctic explorer. Thousands all over the
world, who have never known or seen her,
loved and honored her for her wifely devo-
tion and ceaseless persistence in her search
for tidings concerning her husband’s fate.
Lady J one was the second wifeof Sir John.
She was the second daughter of John
Griffin, and on her mother's side was of
French Huguenot extraction. Having
been born in 1805, she was consequently
seventy years old at the time of her death.
She married Sir John in 1824, and in 1880,
' be having been appointed Governor of
Van Diemau’s Land, she accompanied him
thither, returning to England with him in
1848, when he came back to assume com-
mand of the famous expedition for the dis-
covery of the Northwest Passage. The ex-
edition, which consisted of the ships
Brebus and Terror, sailed from Sheerness,
May 19, 1845, and, as all the world knows,
never returned. The sadly fascinating
story of' its fate, as finally disclosed by Cap-
tain McClintock, is familiar to every one-
Expedition after expedition was fitted out.
and dispatched in search of the missing
voyagcrs, the Government at first assxsting
in the matter,but Lady Franklin’s own up-
peals and munificent offers of reward being
the chief motive power. After the Govern-
ment‘gavc up the seuch as hopeless, Lady
Franklin still clung to the hope of finding
her husband or some clue to his fate, and
appealed, not in vain, to the United States
for assistance. The two Grinnell expedi-
tions were the result of this appeal, which
were enterprises none the less noble be-
cause they were unsuccessful in regard to
their main object. Finally, in 1857, Cap-
tain McClintock, commander of one of
Lady Franklin's private expeditions from
England, discovered the melancholy proofs
of Sir John’s fate. Since then Lady Frank-
lin had busily engaged herself in Arctic
enterprises of all sorts. being apparently
fascinated by that region which had proved
so disastrous to her happiness. She con-
tributed liberally to the fitting out of the ex-
pedition which has just sailed from Eng-
land in quest ofthe North Pole. She was,
agreat traveler herself, and had been all
over the habitable globe. She delighted in
bestowing practical charities on all manner
of deserving objects. She was trulya most
remarkable woman in every respect, and
will forever remain a conspicuous figure in
the world's history, while her memory will
be revered and cherished by all true-heart-
ed men and women.
Burleigb, writing to the Boston Journal,
relates the following: “A party of gentle-
men were together last week, and were
telling old-time stories. One referred to.
Senator Dickenson. He was not overlearn-
ed,but was very shrewd. He knew abso-
‘ lutclynothing of the classics, and was
greatly annoyed when one quoted Latin.
Van Buren had swung off into Free Soil,
and the burden of the party was on Dickin-
son’s shoulders. A friend of Van Buren
was eulogizing the err-President in a speech.
Hespokc of Curtius, and compared Van
Buren to that noble Roman. Dickinson
went over to a seat occupied by a Senator
who was at home in all that relates to the
Romans. ‘Who is this Curtis, the Senator
is talking about ?’ ‘0, he is not talking.
about Curtis at all. He is talking of a
noble Roman patriot. His name was Cur-
tins, not Curtis.’ ‘Wcll, what did he do?’
‘Why, in the time of a great public calamity
he threw himself in the breach and saved
his country.’ ‘0, that’s it, is it i” What
did you say his name was?’ ‘Curtius.’
‘Won’t you spell it?’ ‘C-u-r-t-iu-s.’ ‘All
right. Thank you,’ said Dickinson, as he
went to his seat. As soon as the defender
of Van Buren took his seat, Dickenson
arose, fresh, confident, exuberant. He-
closed like a man from the classics. ‘And
who is this Curtius to whom the honorable
Senator compares Martin Van Buren ? He
wasa noble Roman. He was a patriot.
But how unlike Mr. Van Buren. Curtius
threw himself into the breach to save
his country. But Martin Van Buren threw
‘his country into the breach to save him-
self.‘ ’
lfanything were needed to cbnfirm the
suspicion that the charges of corruption
against Connecticut legislators are well
founded, it is furnished by the remarkable
'action of the special committee appointed
to investigate the charges of the New Haven
Palladium’s correspondent. Upon being
furnished by him with a list of a dozen per-
sons who conl throw considerable light
upon the subjcc , the committee announces
that it will not summon them, but the cor-
respondentmay cull tliem,—-whicti‘ would
be, of course, a farce, the .corrcspondent
h-iving no pt)»i('l‘ to compel attendance.

as he npprotched the stamp clerk’s window,
“It is,” was the reply. “And you have

kind as to please sell me one ?” "I will.”
“I’m very sarry to have to bother you,”
continued the stranger. while the clerk was
tearing off the stamp, “but I want to send a
letter out and I hope you’ll excuse me."
“That’s all right," replied the clerk. “ch,
I believe it is all right,” said the stranger.
“I'm a thousand times obliged for your
courtesy, anti now I want to beg one more
favor. Can I mail this letter here?”
“Why, of course.” “Can I? Here, give

Advertising is a . great ' bother. It only
bringsalot of folks to your place of busi-
ness. If they want you, let them hunt you
up. Then if you get your name in‘ the pa-
per you will be bored with drummers, and
people from the country will call on you
and you will have to show them goods, and
like enough have to do up bundles for them
which will exhaust your stock so mttch that
you will be obliged to buy more goods,
which is a great trouble. If you advertise,-
too, it gives your place a reputation abroad;
folks will go there and crowd, and make it
too lively. If you don’t' want ‘to do any-

THE PEACE CROP.
The peach crop in Maryland and Dela-
ware, this year. is said to exceed in extent
any that has been known-for many years.
The means of transporting peaches to mar-
kct heretofore provided will,it is anticipa-
ted,bo insufiicient this summer, and exten-
sive preparations are making by the railroad
companies to supply the want. The fruit
will soon begin to ripen in large quantities,
and great expedition will have to be used in
getting ready a sufficient number of cars for
transportation. In former years, even when
the peach crop was very large, 700 cars
were all that were required to convey it to
the market, but this year it is estimated that
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti-
more Railroad company alone will require
1,000 cars for this purpose, and as many as
800 cars will have to be used by the rail-
roads running East and West. Fears are
even expressed that it will be impossible to
find means for transporting all the peaches
that will soon be ready for market. Care
has to be taken in the construction of the
cars, 1.] order to avoid bruising the frttit.
Passenger car trucks are generally used for
this purpose, as they run with less jar than
ordinary frci ht trucks. To insure thorough
ventilation, t c peach cars have openings in
the ends and sides to admit the air, and lat-
ticed doors and windows. Al0ng the Dela-
ware road. several miles of side tracks have
been constructed this year to accommodate
the, increased number of trains that will
have to be run.
The estimate of the crop iii the counties
along'thc Delaware branch railroad is 4,-
513, 000 baskets, while the largest crop pro-
duced in any former season was 2,211,506
baskets. Along the roads connecting with
the Delaware railroad, it is estimated that
the crop will amount 1 928,000, making a
total of 6,441,000 baskets, which is more
than trebic the amount produced in any
previous year. Besides this, the peach crop
in New Jersey will be very large.

SPONGE BA'rirs.—A tat looking, bald -
headed lobster colored German in shirt
sleeves appeared in the hallway of an
Adams street bathing establishment, ad-
dressmg a loose jointed individual with wet,
stringy hair, about noon yesterday.
“Holt on von minud, called out the first
described, you can‘ no go out dese place so
you not pay me fur dot bat.”
“Pay tor that bath,” exclaimed the other
in apparent astonishment, “who said any-
thing about-paying l"
“I say something ’boud dot.”
“You do ‘3” ~
b “Yaw, I say you _must pay me for dot
at. '
“You said it wouldn’t cost nothing,” said
the haired man.
“N oddings l" echoed the bath-keeper, "I
.no say such a dings.”
' “What’s that readin’ on your sign, then?"
inquired the disputant.
“Dot sign reats: Turkish Bats, Sulphur
Bats, Vapor Bats and Sponge Bats,” re-
plied the man of the lobster complexion.
"Well,” said the other as he edged away,
“that last’s it; bein’s I didn’t have any
money I took a sponge bath 1"
The Teuton fell to studying his sign
while his patron meandered toward the
City Hall, but when at last he looked up he
had resolved to strike “sponge baths” off his
list.—-ll[z'neapolis Tribune.
THE VACATION Simeon—It is with no
gradual and inviting growth of charms that
our northern clime’s brief season of wealth
and fervor opens. A freakish day of sum-
mer now and then gets astray in May, but
it dcceives no one, except perhaps those
bright optimists, the blue birds. When the
time comes, it breaks all at once, like a sun
burst through a cloud, and the earth is
bathed in sun shine and summer. And so
our sudden season of country and sea show
once again is well in progress. We sup-
pose the watering places are already busy
and gay with their sojourners, beaches and
hill tops and springs transformed,and many
a quiet place assuming a temporary and
alien gayety.
It is good to note, as nature’s wide wel-
come is renewed, how gratefully it is taken
advantage of. The American people have
not been lectured, this generation past, in
vain; they begin to- appreciate the fatal
strain of life at high pressure, that drives so
many into the grave before their time, or
breaks them down in middle life to fret out
years of chronic invalidism. So that the
custom of vacation has grown within these
half dozen years past, from the privilege of
the few to the practice of the many.
Wealth no longer monopolizes the blessings
of rest in summer beats, and, as a natural
consequence, the great baths and beaches
are losing their old distinction and lessen-
ing their prosperity. Not to them belong
the bountcous bloom and green and light,
the myriad voices of the brooks and woods
and dolls, the unvexed majesty of the hills,
the soft inland zephyrs, the salt strength of
ocean breezes,'thc innumerous murmur and
surge of waves. These have a wider habi-

' surely and effectually
control them. The testimony of our best: citi-
zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
Cimmtx PEC'I‘ORAL will and does relieve aiid
cure the afflicting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
"dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable 'th hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. As a remedy,
it. is adequate, on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, tla
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves uu'
numbered lives and an amount of suffering not
' to be computed. It challenges trial, and con-
vinccs the most sceptical. livery family should
keep it on hand as a. protection against the early
and unperceivcd attack of Pulmonary Atl'ec-
tions, which are easily met at first, but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg-
lected. Tender lunas need this defence; and it
is unwise to be without it. As a safeguard to
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, Cllrzltnr
PncronAL is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes arc rescued from rematurc graves,
and saved to the love and aficcfion centred on
them. It acts speedily and surely against ordi-
nary colds, securing sound and health-restoring
sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Influ-
enza and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toil
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost'
possible perfection. It may be confidently relied
upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable gf producing cures as
memorable as the grcatcs it has ever ctl‘ccted.

hard working people, ministers and bank-
ers merchants and clerks, lawyers and
mechanics, with their wives and children, if
they fortunately have them , resting in the
simple and inexpensive country, or on some
coast yet unfrequented.
We are glad to see this luxury of rest get-
ting to be recognized as a necessity. There
was never any blessing in the world in the
resortsof fashion, but in these modest,—un-
pretentious retirements there is abundant
treasure to be gained. Nothing so good to
—cleanse the bosom of that perilous stuff
which weighs upon the heart
as to absorb the wholesome medicine of un-
spoiled nature. Just to let the tired brain
utterly rest; to forget that there is a church
or a client, or a book or a job upon one’s
hands, to be, for a delightful week or so,
quite irresponsible, to forget slavery in free-
dom, as ifthe liberation were not measured
but infinite—this is to recreate and rebuild
soul and body at once. A sunrise out ofthe
sea,a sunset across a lake, 0. matin con-
cert trom the robins and oriolcs, a day
alonga. trout stream, are better remedies
than any the pharmacopmia tells of, and
cheaper. .
It is in connection with this tendency to va-
cations that the great camp meeting grounds
have grown to their importance. The
religious impulse that made camp meety
lugs a. necessity, ‘ in times when
the sparsely settled country gave no
other opportunity for the communion of
great bodies of believers, and the hearing of
mighty preachers, has passed; ‘and yet' the
camps hold their own, because of the social
element. The religious characteristic has
become really a secondary 'one; occupying
but a few weeks, usually not more,tlian two
often less, during the warm monthszwhereiu
city people rest in their pretty cottages,
living very much al fresco. in contented:
quiet simplicity. Martha’s Vineyard, and
Ocean Grove have become summer villages
and Shelter Island and other camps have
been patterned after their fashion. The
same transformation is coming in its degree
upo‘h our neighboring Northampton camp
ground; for some of ottr city Methodists
make summer residences of their cottages
now, and the tendency is growing. Ot'
and keen competitions, is inevitable, but the
man of business whose'family draws him to
the rural shades, to keep Sunday in the
meaning of its name, has gained far more
thereby than he can measure with a rule, or
fstimate by a bank bin—Springfield Repub-
wan.
The naked truth—a bear story.
A considerable number of artesiau wells
have been sunk in this country with vary-
ing results. In Chicago two wells, about
seven hundred feet in depth, discharge not
more than a million gallons daily. A well
at Jackson, Michigan, over 2,000 feet daep,
ne
at St. Louis, 2,200 feet deep discharges about
75 gallons per minttte of water so strongly
impregnated with mineral substances as to
be useless. Another at St. Louis 3,300 feet
deep was abandoned because no water was
found. Two wells at Charleston 1,250 feet
deep discharge about 20 gallons per minute
of salt water. The water of the Chicago
artesian wells was found by analysis to con:
tain nearly seventy-two grains of solid
mineral substances to the gallon.
A Milwaukee belle, attending a theatre re-

eat to a shoemaker’s to-day to have a cruel
peg driven down in my shoe heel. A pile
of old boots, slippers and shoes were knee
deep around the cobbler. “They don’t throw
away their old shoes as they did ?” said I. '
“No, Sir, Inever saw so much cobhlin’ in
