j I'nrest. . I
Like the lion In bis lair, like the boy In hlschalr,
Libahe mule that is clialncd to a post ;
The wilTX unrest nnderneath my rest,
Drives me distracted, almost.
I do not know why it pains mo so.
And shuts me up like it knife ;
Unless a minoe pie and a piece of turkl,
Are engaged in deadly strife.
I didn't eat mncb of pickles and such,
Raw oysters a dozen or so ;
And as for mallard with dressing and salad.
I didn't take any I know.
Yet this wild unrest underneath my Test,
t Is not without cause It wonld seem ;
So It most be true, as hinted by you,
That I've eaten too mncb ice cream.
I'm Internallee, like tbe surgefoi sea.
That is tossed and lashed to a fc'Hrri ; '
It la Riving me fits and I'd give six bits,
If I was safely at home. .
Oh ! tbe wiltl nnrcst un Jerneatb my vest.
Ob S the fiery, fierce heartburn ; .-- .
Is there aught that can aqusich the baneful
belch.
Of he of dyspeptic turn ?
There's mrhmcliolee in the restless sea.
As it washes the rocky alio re ;
Tbere's a ceaseless moan and a gripe ful groan,
' To the winds that arc wafted o'er.
There's a sense perturbed tof he heart disturbed
There's un rest. In the waterfall ; '
But tbe wild unrest underneath my vest.
Just gets away with thein1 all.

Tliere Is n girl at Ru-ldel's Mills, Ken
lucky, who U proving to be a deciiled
natural curiosity. Her name is Lizzie
Collins, and she Is tins daughter oi William
Collins, who live near here. Lizzie 1
only thirteen years of age. and tor some
time past ha been terrible sufferer.
II. r nervous system is completely shatter
ed. Her left side, two of iter fingers on
her left linnd, and tiio left side of her
tongue. I'.fS completely jir..lyzcd. She
h bcrn in this condition about five moths.
When the symptom, first made their ap
pearance her parents called in the advice
of the best physicians in the county, but
they were unable to afford her any relict.
The disense grew wore, and at last physi
cians in all parti of the State grew inter
ested.
A peculiar feature in llm oae was the
constant inclination to slc") in.niift--t d by
the palient. She wimiKI sleep for hours nt
.1 time, and while in th it eoinlitinii , her
contortions were frightful to witness, and
dm iiiff Iter hours of waking she. says rite
stifters terribly while tuiconsclotia. But
the most astonishing ieature of all 14 the
wonilerfti1 feats performed by the girl
while asleep. .
A few days ago several gentlemen- of
high standing iu the cmnmnniry deteruiiiH
eil lo watch Lizzie during one ot hersom
1 oleiit spells. As gddn ns she had fallen
a-Icep, which she seemed to do quite natu
rally, slie quickly gave evidence of being
in great p-iiu. This ' fi-eiing. Iiowever,
apparently parsed away after a little while
and then she asked !H a perfectly amlible
tone of voice :
"Mainron, are you there ?'
Her mother was standing a few feet from
her bedside, and quickly replied
' "Ye, dear, I am here. What do you
wantr
llring me my arithmelic. ptene ; I
must act my lessons learned Ui to-morrow."'
Tlie pan-lit say that thi is her n-iial
request. She seems to imnclj-.e th:t she
is attending fhool again. 'Hie mother
brought the desired bwok. ami l-izzie. with
her eyes closed, solved the - imist difficult
problems with the greatest ease. One
of the gentlemen present po, cd a lighted
candle iu froni of her face several times
but she .-eeini'Tl entirely unconscious ot its
proximity. Her bosom rose and fell quite
naturally, and the eyelids never moved.
She was fust asleep.
The next Was thfe inevitable "15" puzzle
To' the astouistiriielit of all present, she
treated tiiU mathematical wonder, that is
puzzling half the country, with perfect
iudilference. for. finder her tU-ift manipu
lation, the 13. li and io came otit bold and
ele.if tit- e've'f $ venture. Always, she nev
er tailed once in solving ttiis dlRicnlt ' till
die. a-ia did M apparently wStli ttte great
est east). In addition to ttils; gffo Is in the
h.ibit of calling for pen and ink, and, upon
a small writing desk being placed upon
the .bed, sho will wrlie the most elegant
and affei't!oiiatc letters to her friends,
reading liiem over, cbrrectifig All" mistakes
and. with bracket, tipplying' al! words
that rfe niitj" fnadvertently jeeire iut.
The visitors present cm tfft' occasion re
ferred to, awakened fief suddenly, when
slie exhibited the most cotnplte ' surprise
on being ph-sentea with tlw letters she
had vrlffeif ffhft (old ot the mathematical
problems she liail solved. She was asked
fo re'fitat some' bt t!ie hitter; but was total

A' lecturer fii Cleveland Sfttd lately:
"The conditions of success a ie three

that turns tlie greatest tnrse fufo blessing.
The yoimg man who has lca'rtfca' to work
has solved the greatest ot "problems that

An Kx trao rd inary Strike.
The following note from S. A. Ileilner,
dated Baker City, Oregon. April 25th,
18S0, printed in the Oregonian of the 30th j
is an indication of what Oregon can do in
the way of gold mines : . Messrs. Hnyes &
Co., while prospecting about a month agd
In a quartz mine, owned by them and oth
ers, consisting of George Hayes S. Otten
hcitner, J. Crow and Haskel, came upon
what may be termed a pocket. Mr. Hayes
and son and Mr. John Cavins, the present
owners, went to work quietly ami bought
Mesrs. Haskel, Ottenheirner and Crow out
ami now are taking out with a hand mot
tar at the rate of a tltousand dollars per
day. It appears the pocket is Increasing
111 width and richness, aud so i.-ir they lave
taken out over $20,000. It it keeps on;
nnd tlie pros,iects are very fjitotrable, the
cltances are tlicy may take out millions.
Therein nothing equals it, except the
Gold Hill excitement in Jackson Co. S.
Ottenheirner & Co. have rock on exhibi
tion of which a ton is worth from $50,000
to 4)75,000. The strike is utterly immense
and the value of the mine cannot be esti
mated. Strange that the mine is in the
im mediate neighborhood, aixitit six miles
from Baker City, and has been prospected
from time to t'uie by different parties since
18M.
A young lady asked the Springfield
(Ohio) Tribune editor this extraordinary
question, '-jbd you think It is right for a
girl to sit on a young man's lap, even it
she is engaged to hint ?" To this inquiry
the editor gets off this extraordinary re
sponse : We have had no experience in
the m after referred to." Xow, why didnt
he say: "It it was our gtrl and our lap,'
yes ; if it was another girl and our lap,
yes; but if it was our girl and another
fellow's lap, never !"
He sat down benlde her on an Old sola.
and one of the wire coils shot up thtotigh
the covering, punctured his garments aud
went in among the nerves and tilings.
She thought he was becoming insane wheu
he jumped six feet into the invisible ether
