Wearied and sad we sink to rest,
Worn from the fight of life ;
And slumber, stealing o'er the frame,
Gives rest from toil and strife.
Then corms, with gentle, noiseless
wing.
The angel of the night,
Filling the f? verish aching brain
With visions calm and bright.
All sorrows in that peaceful sleep
Have, for the moment, fled ;
And in sweet, ureauis roans ?
Loved forms, now with the dead.
Scene9 of Elysian bliss float through
Tlie network of our dri'tittis.
And long-lost voices murmur low,
Like music of the streams.

The trance Is o'er; the echoing voice
In silence dies away ;
We wake, to realize again
Another toilsome day.

THE WRONG REPORTER.- *
. ^ .i ? 1
It is saicKthat in a moment of:v
temporaiy insanity, a Boston city (
editor as^ijjned a horse-racing, 1
base-hall and aquatic reporter to report,
in half column, the Sunday j
services at the church of a sensa- ,
tional nreaeher. This is the report r
he published, and for which lie was
discharged:
"The house met at 10:30, a. m.!
Prayer by the chaplain. The first;
race was between the chaplain, and J
the singers, it being: a pretty even
match the two first heats; but the
singers got the bestof the last three
heats, and came in on the amen
stretch two full lengths ahead, win- r
ning the last three heats and the
race?time, .r>:02. Petitions were j
then presented for forgiveness and t
other matters, and notice was given j
of special assignments during the t
coming wc?k for various objects, i
The singers then sailed up to the I
(judges' stand, and after getting info r
'position, "ailed away on the course
with all cmiVas set and a spanking!1
breeze from the organ, which drove jr
them along in fine style. The topij
rigged yacht, flying the blue pen-!
jnant, was well ahead at the stake, ^
|a?id came home ahead of all tliej,
'fleet. The speaker then took thejs
floor, and announced his intention
to ask that the resolution* of con- I
sure that had been heaped upon 11
Ananias should be rescinded, and I
- ? i /?! *
!proceeded to read the records or,1
; the case, from which it appeared!*
I that Ananias had sold his house, f
and had not given all the price to
the church. The speaker then went t
;on to sav that no reason appeared -u
ion the record for Ananias to. give 0
any, much less all, of his property h
to the church.- and that he ques- 1
tioned if any of those before him
would do any more than Ananias
had in the same place. He then a
went on to show that Ananias had u
obeyed his wife in the matter, and p
e'xpressed the belief that few of e
those before him could say as much
for themselves. After further ar- v
guments of a similar character, he '
moved that the character of Ana- (j
nias be, and hereby is, declared A t

The Shah Among th8 "Women. f'
e
Xext to the grass and trees, or r
perhaps before, the women of En- 1
gland have had the honor to inter- Jj
est the Shah. Regarding them (
naturally from the Oriental point (j
of view, his Majesty has tiui^ a f,
number of remarks which will f
scarcely bear repetition in print.
The prevailing fashion ot dress lias j
given him abundant opportunity j
to compare their attractions with
those of his harem. For three he ^
is reported to hav? offered jC30,^00 i
with the option of canceling the
bargain and returning to England
if, after a fair trial, they disliked
Persia. One of the three.told me
she was inclined to accept if the t
money could be settled on herself,
and if she could feel sure about
getting: back. But I think no bargrain
has been closed. At Lady
Granville's party at the Foreign >
Office, on Tuesday night, it was an
American lady?or, as some say,
two or three fair' Americans?who
had the honor to attract this noble
savage's regard. At one or two
dinners he has found himself with
a lady .on each side of him, and this 1
i*a o Tvnortpp whi(;h he declares 10
himself unable to understand. ^
They, on the other hand, have been
enlightened by experience as *to t
some of the customs which prevail \
in Persia, but have hitherto he n d
unknown in England. One la<"y c
.on rising from the table found her a
lap filled with morsels from the 1
Royal plate, which, as she sup- r
posed, he had found unpalatable ''
and quietly disposed of in this *
way. Another beheld sundr\* vi- R
amis from time to time dnrinsr din- r
der transferred from the Shah's !
plato to her own. There is even a t
storv that he took sneh a violent j(
dislike to spinach, when it -was T
served to him fo<* the first time, r
that he ejected, it from his mouth n
on to the plate of his .neighbor, t
But to all these, .rfs to most of the a
other stories, there is another side, t
The charitable and well-informed V
explain that these contributions r
were meant as marks of royal favor, v

breeding, since among Orientals it r
is the custom to bestow on a gnest
the choicest morsels from the host's
portion, and a King always stands ,
in the relation of a host to every- t
body else. t
The Cotton Crop. j;
There >8 nothing in tho report of
the Bureau of Agriculture, just pub- ,s
jli>hed. which encourages the belief *
that tho cotton crop of 1873 74 will ^
be a large one. The main reliance of ^
the Northern bears wiih the increase f
of acreage, as compared with that of a
: 1872-73 from which they figured out v
ja crop of four and u half or five and R
:a half million bales, according to 0
their fancy. This prop is swept awav. *
Tho Agricultural Commissioner say?|r
that enough laijd, planted in cotton, n
has been abandoned 4,to bring the R
iaereago down to what it was last s
iyear." All, therefore, that we have
j to rely on is a crop equal in amount s
io irial oi iocs-is, ?/ me season he 111
as favorable to the staple, and if the a
lubor of the country bo as plentiful c
and as efficient as* it was lust year, h
What information have wo upon those n
two points? C
In the first place the present season o
has unquestionably been, so far, less j b
favorable than the preceding season, o
Tho Agrieu^jral Commissioner oulyjci
confirms thwettcrs of private corre- R
spondeuts, : nd of the acute corre- tl
spondents of the News and Courier, in C
saying that the crop is from two to in
fniir Intp ihnt the wet weather C'
has tfiven tho planters more work
than they could do, and lhat cotton d<
worms and caterpillars havq made ec
their appearance. Add to thes;> facts tr
the further fact that labor is dearer I St
tnd moresearco and less efficient than 1:
t was last season, and tho public, y
vho wear not tho speculator's sj^ecta- t.
les. will see at once how poor is the n
hanco of making a crop equal to r
hat of 1872-73 unless the rest of tho |
urrent season be as extraordinarily t
avorablo as tho season of 1870 71, v
vhen over lour million bales wore s
hade. . f
Tiio bears and spinners may Pa}* t
vh:it thoy please aliout four and five S
nillion bales in 1873-74. Estimates (
in* mere guesses at this stage, but as r
liini^s look now, three and a half
nillion hales will bo nearer the mark i
ban four and a half millions. f
A Practical PunusiiEfc.?You j
emembcr how widel}* read and how
icveivly-coridemed Abbott's "Jjife of r
Napoleon" was when it was printed
p Harper's Magazine, and afterwards e
mblisbed by the firm in book form. 1
fust after its appearance between *
lovers, a well known man of letters 1
lappened to be in tho publishing- !
louse in fYrtnklin Square, and re- 1
narked to Fletcher Mai per:
"I am really surprised. Mr. ITarpcr. '
iiat a firm of your standing a no j "

is Abbott has written about Napoeon.
It is false in fact as it is in
hetorie and morality. Takeout the
ins and fustian and there would he
lothing left. It is a disgrace to the
irt of printing and to authorship."
Fletcher Harper, who has always
lad a good deal ol quiet waggery,
esponded in this wise:
