WM The Whistle.
"You have heard," said a youth to his
sweetheart, who stood
While he sat on a corn-sheaf, at day?
lights decline? ? *
"You have heard of the Danish boy's
whistle of wood?
I wish that that Danish boy's whistle
were mine."
"And what would you do with it? tell
rue," ?h'o said,
While an arch smile played over her j
beautiful face.
"I would blow it," he answered, "and
.then-my fair maid
Would fly to my side, and would here
take her place."
"Is that all you wish for? That maybe;
yours
Without any magic," the fair maiden
cried;
"A favor so slight one's good nature]
secures;"
And. she ^playfuUy seated herself by
"I would blow it again," said the youth,
. ? "and'the charm
Wo old so work, thot not even modesty's
cheek '
Would be abh\ to keep from my neck
youTTIhe aribt"
She smiled?and Bhe laid her fine arm
on his neck.
"Yet once' more would I blow, an/1 the
music divine
Would bring me the third time an ex?
quisite bliss;
You would lay your fair cheek to this
brown one of mine,
And your lips stealing past it would
givo me a kiss."
And the maiden laughed out in her
innocent gie"e?
"What a fool of yourself with your
whistle.vou'd make! . .
For only consider how silly 'twould be,
To sit' there'ami "whistle for?what you
nrftfrtHJrke:''-'
Aches of Skbleto? Ukcabtqed
in Tennessee.?The high water at
the recent flood washed about four
feet of earth from ten to fifteen
acres of land lying along the Ten?
nessee River, near Louisville, in
Blount County, Tenn. When the
water subsided a strange spectacle
was presented. The whole of the
denuded area was covered with
skeletons. Some were straight,
some reclining, some doubled up.
and some in sitting posture. There
were the osseous forms of infants,
of children, and of full-grown per?
sons, over 1,000 forms having been
counted. Persons who have lived
in the vicinity of this mysterious
cemetery for more than half a cen?
tury never heard of any human
bones being discovered there before,
and the skeletons are not found in
a monnd, nor in what appears to
be unartifieial formation of earth.
Boss Shepherd and his ring, in
which it is generally believed
Grant is an interested party, have
involved the city of Washington in
millions of debt, in carrying out
system of improvements which they
boasted war tt>--make Washington
the finest city on the continent. It I
now turns out that the wooden'
pavements, laid down at such
fearful cost to the city, are worth?
less or fast becoming so; the drain?
age'is defective, and the gt'oat
sewer system .nothing moro nor
less than a vast job, out of which
the Boas and his friends have
managed to make a first-rate thing.
IT is the most wonderful medicine ever
known, and possesses curative power
unequalled in history of remedies. For
