A Maniac’s Poem. Probably the mass of prison poetry which has been written on stools and bedpost? and scratch' ed on prison walls far exceeds that which lias found expression on paper, and many a “mute, in¬ glorious Milton” has begun and Airshed his poetical career with these ‘‘lost to sight” productions. There is in existence a poem, said to have been scratched by a maniac on the wall of his cell, which ran thus: Could I with ink the ocean fill, Were all the world of parch* rnent made, Were every reed on earth a quid And every man a scriba by trade, To write the love of Gc d alone, Would drain that ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, Though stretched from sky to sky. The authenticity of this being the work of a maniac has o.ten been questioned because of the beamy of its expression and its sound reason, but the story stands. Fight Will Be Bitter. Those who will persist inclosing their ears against the continual recommenda¬ tion of Dr. King’s New .Discovery for Consumption, will have a long and bit ter fight with their troubles, if not end¬ ed earlier by fatal termination.
