Look, see hero my dinner, 1 brought It with me for a lunch, Cracker?, cheese and cold potatoa* All jamir.cd up Into bunch. Come, Stocking, pass the bottl* It makes me feel so queer I iha'nt Mop at any hotel Bccause Ihoy are doar.

Pull thf cork for me, you, wis *". am getting dry again And my tonguo ia all a blistar For my teeth they ache with p&ln, I have lived upon the bottom, Along with Keen and Bill And whan I got to Pembina I will give old Sweet his fill. I have camped upon the prairie Near that afused Bismarck town And among my nelghboti,'truly, Not a decent ono is found. See that minister a looking Across the seats at use And because I hare been drinking He thinks I am on a spree. Do you know who my counsel To help me with my land? It It Jackmnn, D. 8. Marshall.

Sae that follcv theee a writing I know h« ia takfatf down Every word that I have been saying All about our Blamarck t®*ra. Mr. Editor thirte plenty, I hare only give my tact, So forgive this imposition And ril finish in tb« not*. (T# ooattviav.) The Strength of Timber. The strength of apiece of timber de penda upon the part of the tree from which it is taken. Up to a certain age, the heart of the tree is the best after that period, it begins to fail gradually. The Torst part of ft tree is the^ap wood, which is next the bark. It is softer than the other parts of the wood, and liable to premature decay. Tho dele terious component of the sapwood is absorbed if the tree is allowed to grow for a longer period, and in time the old sapwood becomes proper timber fiber, similar to heart' wood. Hence, the goodness of a tree, for timber purposes depends on the age at which the tree was cut down. When young, the heart wood is the best at maturity, with the exception of the sap wood, the trunk is equally good throughout and when the tree is allowed to grow too long, the heart wood is the first to show symp toms of weakness, and deteriorates gradually. Tho best timber is secured by felling the tree at tho age of maturity, which depends upon its nature as well as on the soil and c&itnatc. The ash, beech, elm and fir, are generally considered at their best when of seventy or eighty years' growth, and the oak is seldom at its best in less than one hundred years but much depends on surrounding cir cumstances. As a rule, trees should not be cut before arriving at maturity, because there is then too much sap wood, and the durability of the timber is much inferior to that of trees ielled after they have arrived at their full de velopment. The strength of many woods is doubled by the process of seasoning, hence it is very thriftless to use timber in a green state, as it is not only weak, but it is exposed to continual change of bulk, form and stability. After timber is cut, and before it is properly sea soned, the outside is found to crack and to split more than the inside of the mass, because it is more exposed to the surrounding atmosphere but, as the outside dries, tho air gradually finds its way to the interior. If timber is cut by tho saw when green, and allowed to season er dry in a gradual manner, il is found to be the most durable. In the arts, however, artificial drying is often resorted to, as in the case of gun stoeks. These are put into a desiccating chamber, where a current of air at ninety or one hun dred degrees is passed over them at such a rate as to change* the whole vol ume of air in the chamber every three minutes, and it is found that a year of seasoning may thus be saved. The wal nut wood is as good, after this process, as if the seasoning had been accom plished by time and exposure, and works more smoothly under the cutting instruments of the stock machinery. Wood will always warp after a fresh surface has been exposed, and will like wise change its form by the preience of any moisture, either from that con tained in the atmospheretor from wet ting the surface. The effect of mois ture on dry wood is to cause tho tubu lar fibers to swell hence it is that, if a plank or boards is wetted upon one side, the fibers there will be distended, and the plank, inconsequence, must-bend. The amount of the shrinkage of tim ber in length, when seasoning, is so in considerable that it may in practice be disregarded. But«.the shrinkage in transverse directions is much greater, and presents some peculiarities which can only be explained by examining the structure of the wood, as resulting from iis mode of growth.—Scientific Americnv. National Songs. The composer of the "Wacht am Rein," who has just died, was happy enough to enjoy the full success and cel ebrity of his conipositon. No such ear ly tribute of national recognition glad dened the ears of the composer of that far grander piece of war music, the "Marseillaise The "Wacht am iCein" was not an inspiration of high artistic genitis, but it was an inspiration of its kind, an3 it hit a long-prevailing mood, and came to bo the expression of tho national sentiment on the very eve of battle. From the earliest days of the War in France it superceded all the older and greater hymns of German na tionality. Long after events had defin ately settled that there was no need of protecting the Rhine, and long after the uWatch?' had left her to take care of herself and gone to pursue the French into Paris, the strains of the popular anthem still proclaimed in every city in the world the resolve of Germany to stand by her river. Carlyle calls the "Marseillaise tho luckiest musical com position ever promulgated, the sounds of which will make the blood tinglo in men's veins, and whole armies and as semblages will sing it with eyes weep ing and burning, hearts defiant of death despot and devil." There is none of this passionate and stormy grandeur abont the "Wacht am Rhein," which is only at best a song of encouragement and defence, without passion or dospair, and not bv any means up to the level of thiunparalle 1 national triumph which was awatitng Germany at tho time when it began to be populs*. Sti'." there can oe little vlonbt that it will pass into public memory in association with the events of 1870, as Arndt's song of the German iVherland is remember ed in connection with thos»ofl813 as "partant. pour la Syrie" is enshrined with Nopolconistn, and "Lillibullero" brings with it recollections of the fall of divine light in England.—London- Daily Newt. Different Styles of Dancing. The fashion of dancing is not at all cosmopolite—not even national. In Saratoga the different styles make a medley. jfclf you see a two hundred pound man and woman perspiring around with their pompous bodies tossed lightly and springily in the air, arms swaying, keeping good time, and making grand Persian salaams for a bow in tho Lan cers, you can set them down as belong ing to tho old Tweed Fislc Leiand Americua Olub school. If ynu see two heated young people tripping fast away ahead of the musie, taking shortstops and jerking through a square dance as if the house was on fire and sot must be completed before any one could take the fire escapes, you you can set them down as from the plan tation districts of the South, or the rural districts of Pennsylvania and the West. It is the steamboat quickstep. If you see a black-eyed youth with long hair, and a young lady with liquid black eyes, and she has her two hands on tho young man's shoulders at full length, and she stands directly in front of him, and they both go hopping around like Siamese twins with wire springs under them, you can wager they are from Louisville, Memphis or Little Rock. They have tho square toed wresting step. If you see a rough fellow grasp a young lady firmly around the waist, seize her wrists, stick her hand out like tho bowsprit of a Sound yacht, and both hump up their backs like a pair of mad cats on a dooryard foncc, over people, through people, up and down the,room, sidewise, backward, up and down like a saw-mill gate, you can bet on them having learned the dancing from tho Morristown, JRiverdale and Yonkers sociables. It is tho sueburban New York saw-mill jump-up. If you see a couple sliding gently and slowly,,and lazily through tho lancers, just hall as fast as the time, but keeping stip witli the music, gently sauntering through the "grand chain," too languid to whirl partners, talking sweetly all the time, as if they wero strolling into a graveyard, you can rest assured that they are from New York, and from the most fashionable section between Madi son Square and the Park.. This the graveyard saunter step. If you see a feller ciasp a girl tnelt ingly in his arms, squeeze her hand warmly, hold her swelling bosom to his, and they both go floating down the rmnn locked in each other's embrace, looking like one person, his feet only now and then protuding from a profusion of il lusion and lace and so on, rely upon it you can set th.-m down as belonging to the intense Boston school. It is the melting Harvard jacket-race embrace. Massachusetts, takes our hat! "Die With My Face to tho 2W A writer in the Louisville Cornier Journal tells the following amusing story of the rebellion. A single shot followed by a loud shriek told us that one of my best men (Bradley) was hurt. He proclaimed his agony with loud voice, turned over on his back ahd commenced kicking so vigorously that the surgeon had difficul ty in getting near him. "Poor fallow I" said the doctor as he saw a whitish liquid oozing out: "shot in the bladder. I'm afraid it's fatal." And he commenced opening his coat. "Oh, my God!" said Bradley, "I'm a dead man." "Keep up your spirits, my boy never say die." said Captain Johnson, kneeling kindly over him. "Doctor," asked the wounded soldier, feebly, "will you write to mother and tell her that I died bravely, doing my duty, with may face tothefo", and that Ith»^htof when dyint "Yes," said the doctor, with dim eyes and husky voice "I will write to her, and tell her, too." But, suddenly springing to his feet, with an indignant voice said "Why confound it, man, you're not hurt a bit. It's only your canteen that's shot, and that's the water from it. Get up, will you?" Bradley raised up slowly, self all over, and with an exceedingly foolish countenance, crawled back to his position amid the uproarious laughter of the whole regiment. For months after that, on the inarch or in camp, and sometimes in the still ness «f tho night, you would hear a voice in some direction demanding. "What shall I tell your mother?" and perhaps half a dszen responses would bo heard "Tell her I died with my face to the foe," ard the: Bradley would come out and hunt for tnc man that said it. He seldom found him, but when he did there was certain to bo a fight.
