THE OKIttIN OF IRELAND.
At a recent banquet in New York a little Irish
poem was read, which wu considered rather
■eat. It is given below from private copies
printed for circulation among friends:
With all condescension I claim your attention,
To what I will meution oi Erin so green,
And without hesitation, I'll show how that na
tion|
Became of creation the gem and the queen.
It happened ene morning, without any warning,
That Venus was horn in the beautiful ’‘say;"
And by that same token, twee mighty pro
voking.
Her pinions were soaking and wouldn't glvs
play.
Then Tfeptune, who knsw her, began to x>ursue
her.
In order to woo her, the "wicked old rat
He very nigh caught her on top of the water,
Grsat Jupiter's daughter, who roared "Father
Pat.*'
Thsh Jot., that great gsttlus, looked down And
uw Venus.
With N.ptun. ,o heinous panning her wild:
He roar, out In thunder, he’d tear him aaun
dar, .
And aura 'twaa ao woods., lot tensing hla
child.
A itar then espying, that round him wae flying,
Ua seized without eighlug, and hurled *wu
below.
It came down like winking, while Neptune wae
linking.
And hit him, l'ca thinking, a terrible blow.
Now this star became dry land, both lowland and
highland,
And formed that sweet ialand, the land of my
birth,
And ao ’tla in story, "QnH Brin" no hoary,
Thus sent down in glory la haaven and earth.
Thau Venua. ao atately, atepped on Jtrln ao
nately,
But fainting, for lately ao bothered and press
ed;
It did her bewilder, but ere It had killed her.
Her father distilled her "a drop of the beet."
Now thla drop so glcrlOtia, toon made her vie
torious,
A little upruarioue. Hear It may prove;
And who then ran blame na, that Ireland la fa
mous,
For Murder and Beauty, and Whiskey and
Lore. a
Remarkable Winter*.
The Methuaalah of the New London Tel
egram volunteer! the lollowing information
concerning remarkable winters. None but
the 1 oldest inhabitant” will be likely to re
call the perioda to which allusion is made.
Hear him:
Now is the time to trot out paragraphs
about remarkable winters—winters that
have distinguished themselves by being ei
ther remarkably colder or warmer than the
law allows. No well-regulated newspaper
will neglect this duty. Referring back to
our files, we find that in 1172 the tempera
ture was so high that leaves came out on the
trees in January, and birds hatched their
broods in February. In 1229 theweather
was equally mild, and the maidens of-Co
logne wore wreaths of violets and corn
flowers at Christmas and Twelth Day. In
1421 the trees flowered in the month of
March and the vines in the month of April.
Cherries ripened in the same month of April.
Peaches appeared in May, and little boys
commenced to fall out of apple trees a little
later. In 1572 the trees were covered with
leaves in January, and the birds hatched
their young in February, as in 1172. In 1586
the same thing was repeated, and it is added
that the eorn was in ear at Easter. To the
best _ot our memory there was in France
neitlier snow nbr frost throughout the win*
ters of 1538, 1607,1609, and 1659, Finally,
in 1662, even in the north of Germany, the
stoves were not lighted, trees flowered in
Febuary and out door bouquets were show
ered on the newspaper offices without num
ber. It seems but as yesterday. Coming
to later dates, the winters of 1845.47, when
it thundered at Paris on the 28th of January,
and that of 1866, the year of the inundation
of the Seine, may be mentioned as very
mild.
A Warm Morsel fob a Shark. — The fol
lowing details a cruel trick, as described in
the Glasgow Obierver:
“Looking over the bulwarks of the schoo
ner,’' writes a correspondent of this journal,
“I saw one of those watchful monsters win*
ding lazily backward and forward like a
long meteor; sometimes rising till his nose
disturbed the surface, and a gushing sound
like a deep breath rose through the breakers;
st others, resting motionless on the water,
as if listening, to our voices, and thirsting
for our Wood- As we were watching the
motions of Ibis monster, Brute (a lively lit*
tie negTo.and my took) suggested the possi
bility of daaWoyißg it. This was br efly to
heat a fire-brick in the stove, wrap it up
hastily in some old greasy clolhes, as a aorv
of disguise, and then to heave it overboard.
Tbit was the work of a few minutes, and the
effect was triumphant. The monster fol
lowed after the hissing prey. We saw it
dash vt the briek like a flash of lightning,
and gorged instauter. The shark rose to
the surface almost immediately, ind his up*
easy motions toon betrayed the success of
the man&iAvre- ffik agonies became terri*
ble; the waters appeared as if disturbed by
a violent squall, and the spray waa driven
over the taffrail where we stood, while the
gleaming body of the fish repeatedly burst
through the dark waves, as if writhing with
fienee find terrible convulsions. Sometimes
we-thougbt we Leird a shrill,bellowing cry,
as if indicative of anguish and rage, rising
through the gurgling waters. His fury,
however, was soon exhausted; in a short
time the sounds broke away into the dist
ance, and tha agitation of the sea subsided.
Tli* shark had given himself up to the tides,
as unable to struggle againt the approach
of death, and they were carrying his body
unresisting to the beach.”
Thz Pbophit's Standasd. —A Madras
Mussulman paper, the Sumsh-ab.Unbbar,
gives its readers the fullowing interesting
information respecting the “Prophet’s Sta
ndard,' 1 which, it states, “was enshrined
among other relics of the founder of Isham
in Constantinople, has been dispatched to
the scene of war, in order that the valor of
the Turkish troops may be stimulated
through their religious feelings.” An Eng
lish author, Mr. Thornton, has published in
his hook on Turkey copious details regard
ing this standard, which is called “Sunjack
i-Shu-reef ’ by the Turks, who ascribe a
mysterious efficacy to it, holding it in the
highest veneration. Non-Mussulmans are
forbidden to gaze on it on pain ol death, and
it was this threat which deterred Mr. Thorn
ton from casting bis eyes on it when the
standard was being paraded in the streets of
Constantinople alter it bad witnessed a re
pulse of the Russians by the Turks during
the Crimean war. When the Turkish army
marches to war with the Sultan himself or
his Vizier at the bead, the standard is dis
played, and on catching a glimpse of it every
Moslem recites his prayer while lending a
hand in carrying it. A splendid silk tent is
erected, in front of which the standard is
raised, guarded by 40 chiefs of the Empire
and four bodies of infantry. Another wri
ter describing the standard, says that it is
made of four layers of silk, the topmost of
which is green, those below being composed
of cloth embroidered with gold. Its entire
length is 12 feet, and from it is suspended
the figure of a human hand, which clasps a
copy of the Koran, transcribed by the Caliph
Osman. In times of peace the banner of the
prophet is kept in a chamber appropriated
to the purpose, along with the clothes, teeth,
the venerable locks, the stirrups, and the
bow of the Prophet.”
Texas is trying to regulate the traf
fic in alcohol by a local option law,
each county deciding for itsell
whether licenses shall or shall not
be granted. The negroes generally
have voted against prohibition.
There ar various opinions in every
quarter as to the- effect of local op
tion, and the experiment in Texas
will be observed with interest.

This incomparable preparation for the Hair is

It prevents the Hair from falling off, producing

and judge for yourself.
[From Rev. E. T. Baird, Sec’y of Publication of
Presbyterian Church South.]
July 27,1874.
The Xanthine is the only hair dressing I have
ever need which has removed the dandruff from
the scalp and made my hair soft and pliable. It
has also restored my hair to its natnral color; and
by occasionally using it as a hair dressing. 1 have
no doubt it will preserve the color.
