Julius Poppe, Anderson. J. A. Grigsby, Ridgway. H. W. "Lawson, Abbeville. John B. O'N&iH.-Newbeny. Alf the World. All the world is full of babies, Sobbing, sighing everywhere; Looking out, with eyes of terror, Beating at the empty air. Do they soe tho strife before them, That they sob and tremble bo? Oh, the helpless, frightened babies? Still they come, and still they go. All the world is full of children, Laughing over little ioys, Sighing over little troubles, Fingers bruised, and broken toys; Wishing to be older, larger, Weeping at some fancied woe, Oh, the happy, hapless children, Still they come, and still they go. All the world is full of lovers, Walking slowly whispering sweet; Dreaming dreams, and Duilding castles, That must crumble at their feet; Breaking vows, and burning letters, Smiling, lest the world shall know, Oh, the foolish, trusting lovers? Still fhey come, and still they go. All the world is full of people, Hurrying, rushing, pushing by, Bearing burdens, carrying crosses, Passing onward, with a sigh; Some there are, with smiling faces, But with heavy hearts below, Oh, the sad-eyed, burdened people. How they come, and how they go. All the earth is. full of corpses; Dust and bones laid there to rest; j This tho end that babes and children, Lovers, people find at best. All their fears, and all their crosses, All their sorrows wearing so, Oh, the silent, happy corpses, Sleeping soundly, lying low. What a Nevada Editob Has Accumu? lated in His Sanctum.?Sitting here in our sanctum .and, .thinking, our eye musingly falls'-Hjp?ri, and the hand toys with a little trinket, a keepsake, as the world goes, a vade mtcum. It is of no particular value as values are reckoned, but it is useful to tho hand and a trea? sure to the heart. A thousand times taken up, a thousand times found in readiness, it has come to be like a fond friend waiting to anticipate a want and ready to supply it And yet it is but a trinket?a 'senseless thing?merely the old dragoon revolver^we-wrenched from Buffalo'HIB,^hen he camo charging in wrftil here to ^pUursie vus from writing a police iteWabfraVflim. Wo buried him - in our little grave-yard, baok of tho office; but wo can never gaze upon that little pistol without a feeling of admira? tion for his misplaced and unfortunate temerity. _ < . fj ;< . ? That classically moulded limb, pickled and dried, hanging 'cn the wall, is the left shank of Six-toed Pete, the great Mud Springs desperado, who came to re? monstrate" with'us for publishing his marriage under the head of "deaths." It was a printer's blunder, not ours; but no matter, we riddled him with that re? volver, and then toe!; off his leg at the hip joint with the first slash of our truBty little hatchet; wo should have completed his dismemberment, had he not run away, coward that he was, His two big brothers, who came for that leg and revenge, both rest in our little grave? yard,'back of tho office; peace to their ashes. The jagged and knotty old Feejee war club in the corner, this dilapidated noso and broken jaw, as well as this bullet, which we still feel over more stinging away in tho interior of our right lung, were left us by old Blifkins, the editor of the Gospel Eagle, who came on from the East to kill us for connecting his name with the Beeoher soandal and proving that he was tho father of Bessio Turner, as well as the bosom friend of Susan B. Anthony., Our trusty pistol and little hatchet did not fail us, and he, too, lies, editorially, in our quiet little grave-yard, at the back of the office. That elongated scoop-shaped memento which wo use for a waste basket was once the ear of a Virginia City news? paper reporter. He would persist in stealing our item, so wo were obliged to fo and cut off his ear. with our litt 1 o stehet, fallaciously thinking that would stop him. His head goes next We cannot gaze upon that ere waste basket without a sentimental degree of reflec? tion stealing diagonally across our sen? sibilities. Overflowing as it now is with rejected manuscript in exasperating prose, abortive poetry, obituary rhymes and soul-harrowing, literary trash gene? rally, was it not always crammed full of still worse trash, iri the way of no ac? count items, dog-fights, swill-cart acci ofeuta^?tfd ail sorts of sensations, lies, gauzy humbugs and cock and bull stories? Ah! bow eagerly that capacious gullible ear drink them in. May it not, in Borne unknown and mysterious way, have become so saturated with those items that perhaps somo may yet eling to it as the perfumo of flowers around a vase which held them? It is a thing of more use than beauty, but it is like our other keep-sakes, overflowing with subtle emanations and personal re? minders. All this may bo sentimental fanoy, but it is fanoy without a fault; it may be nonsense, but it is a nonsense which will make the world better if acted upon, for thoughts may bo thus kept from wandering and hearts from stray? ing till the feet learn to tread the upper paths of life and love the better way! [Gold Hill News. > ? o It is a difficult matter to associate the ridiculous with so grave a business ru? hanging a man, but there is something very funny in the farewell letter of a co? lored murderer who expiated his crime in Atlanta, Qa., lost Friday. He took oc? casion in his letter to say to his father that he would bo as dead in four hours 'as a dead pig in the sunshine," because "a dead pig would know nothing and so would he. For a serio-comic simile under the shadow of death, this may not be equal to the last words of some of the historic wits, but it is quite as original and entirely true to nature.
