"You have heard," said a youth to his sweetheart, who stood While he sat on a corn-sheaf, at day? lights decline? ? * "You have heard of the Danish boy's whistle of wood? I wish that that Danish boy's whistle were mine." "And what would you do with it? tell rue," ?h'o said, While an arch smile played over her j beautiful face. "I would blow it," he answered, "and .then-my fair maid Would fly to my side, and would here take her place." "Is that all you wish for? That maybe; yours Without any magic," the fair maiden cried; "A favor so slight one's good nature] secures;" And. she ^playfuUy seated herself by "I would blow it again," said the youth, . ? "and'the charm Wo old so work, thot not even modesty's cheek ' Would be abh\ to keep from my neck youTTIhe aribt" She smiled?and Bhe laid her fine arm on his neck. "Yet once' more would I blow, an/1 the music divine Would bring me the third time an ex? quisite bliss; You would lay your fair cheek to this brown one of mine, And your lips stealing past it would givo me a kiss." And the maiden laughed out in her innocent gie"e? "What a fool of yourself with your whistle.vou'd make! . . For only consider how silly 'twould be, To sit' there'ami "whistle for?what you nrftfrtHJrke:''-' Aches of Skbleto? Ukcabtqed in Tennessee.?The high water at the recent flood washed about four feet of earth from ten to fifteen acres of land lying along the Ten? nessee River, near Louisville, in Blount County, Tenn. When the water subsided a strange spectacle was presented. The whole of the denuded area was covered with skeletons. Some were straight, some reclining, some doubled up. and some in sitting posture. There were the osseous forms of infants, of children, and of full-grown per? sons, over 1,000 forms having been counted. Persons who have lived in the vicinity of this mysterious cemetery for more than half a cen? tury never heard of any human bones being discovered there before, and the skeletons are not found in a monnd, nor in what appears to be unartifieial formation of earth. Boss Shepherd and his ring, in which it is generally believed Grant is an interested party, have involved the city of Washington in millions of debt, in carrying out system of improvements which they boasted war tt>--make Washington the finest city on the continent. It I now turns out that the wooden' pavements, laid down at such fearful cost to the city, are worth? less or fast becoming so; the drain? age'is defective, and the gt'oat sewer system .nothing moro nor less than a vast job, out of which the Boas and his friends have managed to make a first-rate thing. IT is the most wonderful medicine ever known, and possesses curative power unequalled in history of remedies. For sale only at HEaNTTSH'S Drug Store. IN EXCHANGE GUANO FOR COTTON. Toe Celebrated Fem!
