W Colonel Loxnn E. Hloi-kloy, of At lmitii. writes the following noat little tribute to the memory of l)r. Frank O. Tieknor, the (}eorj,'la poet, who died in December lust : WspFiel-net's hnrpn vnennt chair doth P stand; Tho strings iud hrokoti ami forcvoi* P hush'd: Tho hvv*t*li‘si tsintf'T ol’our Sunny land Is jjptii' through ilarknnss l. i'-k t" K dust. No Troubadour who sun£ in Franco or Spain To Kni.’ht or lady ol tho* olden days, In music tout’lld such soft, melodious Or o&rnod for minstrel art such mod-- praise. Tho art was his which Nature’s self im* j Dart-*. , , Tho gnu* and spirit which a master owns; He found his way to all tho human hearts That ever listened to Ills magic tones. Kodufco and simple was his liquid verso; He won us gently by his sigli or smile; Unformed his muse to threaten or coerce, No storei> vigor in the thought or style. A loaf miv not we murmur ami complain, Thfttonoso tuneful, though he died not Yung. Held back t o perish in his lieart and brain Such wealth of song of precious song unsung? L. E. B. —♦_ — . ‘‘HfEET-HEART ED ” AND FORGIVING. Beecher, in giving liis experience of the jiost year, at a public meeting of his congregation, said: “God is iny witness that 1 am sweet-hearted there'to no one in the world toward whom I am not sweet at heart. ” Fur ther on in his remarks, with trem bling voice and tearful eyes, Mr. Beecher said: “Those who know this church only through the newspapers do not know it at ttl 1. [Applause.] There is a vol ume of experience here which docs not go abroad. God never brought together in tills world so many Christian brethren who live in har mony and love ami unity, anti are ; kept there with such a constant growth [ love you as I hoc my own life, and when I go out **f t his church, there i ; no other place fr me t* go except to H a • ti.

One recent evealns lie and some of these friends were talking of horses, when lie as tonished them b> offering to bet a hundred dollars that he could ride his mate twenty miles in an hour. He counted out the money in a tanta lizing way, remarking that liis mare had been lanydied at lone enough, and he had made up his mind to show wlmt she eoldd do. It seemed like robbing Tom, so they all aid, to take his het., but he insisted, and t he stakes were put into trustworthy hands. A day was chosen for the trial, and when it came Tom led them to the Central railroad depot, where tin homely little marc was found aboard a baponpe ear. Tom had ticketed her (or Rochester by expiess, and when the train was ready to start he Baton her back smiling triumphant ly. H" said he reckoned he could ride tli it way twenty miles tin hour, tin less the time table lied. A\va\ went tin 1 train, with the referee itold iitK his watch, and the throe fellows who fetid joinetl in the he! against the mare very sorrowful of expression. About fifteen miles had I run in about a half tin hour, and I’om was grhliliiiß in anticipation of easy vie tory,-wlii'ii the car humped over some thlnp. and he was tlirnwn off the mare i y hastily applied air brakes. An axl" hail broken, and the train was stopped for mote than an hour. And Tom was not so rueful over the loss of the stakes and the fuiltti“ of his trick, as he was over liis stupiiliu in ttot thinkiuK of taking the mare off the ear and riding the rest of the •twenty miles, a- there had been ample time to do within tin- hour. —— . ♦.

It was on soil which for several years had grown large rops of carrots, and was spe etonf favorable to corn, being black, ltighlv manured and deeply rich, a well-drained alluvial deposit. There resulted an immense growth of stalks, but no corn, although it was the Intention of the owner, confident ly expressed, to raise an iinii“iinll> superior crop.
