An editor, Dctvid Parker Eiq.. who has produced some of tlio best poetry ever written by a cracked mar., pleased at a lit' le incident that happened in his family (the first occurrence of the kind) gives vent to his feelings in the follewing imaginative effusion enti tled MY CHILD'S OIUOIX. One nlirht a old St. Peter slept. He leu the door of heaven ajar. When through a little anjrel crept. And cuuie down with a falling star. One summer as the uleesed beams Of moru approached, my Mushing bride Awoke from sweet and ple-sam dreanix, An J fwuud that angel by her sidek God prnnt but thin. I ask no more. That tt hen he leaves tnie world of em. He'll wing his way to that bright shore. And find the door of Heaven Hpiin. Whereupon some fellow of a 1 r:u-: iral turn of mind. ;tud without any iii.Mi.i;ialioti and :;.t po --esed of t lie divine a!l!:U.i. attempted to dectroy the illusion of David as follows : ST.

Nor left the door of heaven ajar, Nor lias a little angel left. And gone down v uli a falling star.

Hesiiiution. , The Lincoln Tribune and Mr. ,1'iudi appear to have left the teiupeiuncc work together. The Juniata Herald says that in the last issue of that pa per Mr. Finch "attempts to play the role of a martyr to the temperance c.tiise, in assigning as the reason lor his resignation as G. V. u. T that of duly lo his wife and child, and that his salary has not been promptly paid by the grand lodge." The J uuiata Herald asserts that this does not state Mr. Finch's true reasons for withdi awing, and goes on to make a very serious charge against Mr. Finch. The Her ald is a responsible journal, and has been one of the most able and consis tent advocates of the temperance cause in the slate. The Herald states that Mr. Finch was confronted with a cer tain document of which he was the author, and "vras given the choice of either resigning, or having the whole matter made public, and he chose the former ; hence his resignation." The Republican was considered, on n for mer occasion, to have misjudged Mr. Finch; and on being convinced that it had been misinformed made a disavow al, so far as it was concerned, of a charge which it had quoted from a contemporary. That course on our part, taken in response to Mr. r inch s solicitations And seconded by those ef some of his personal friends, did not prevent Mr. Finch from engaging in a camnaien of falsehood against The Hepul hcan last winter and persisting in it after he had far better reason to retract it than we had to disclaim statements which we had quoted. Notwithstanding this, The Republican lias no disposition to do other than justice to Mr. F.nch, and therefore foregoes prestnt lepublication of the very grave charge made by the Juniata Herald. If Mr. Fiuch is still as much disposed to seek vindiction for wound ed honor in the courts as he was when he bi ought suit against the editor of the Lincoln Democrat and threatened the papers of the state promiscuously with libel suits, the Juniata Heraid has certainly afforded him ample oc casion, and an occasion which he cau notaffoidto neglect if, as we trust, tlte charge brought by the Juniata Herald, and the statements it has made are without foundation in fact. Omaha Republican. We thought that fallow would meet justice after awhile. Public Vjir:t. We take the following from a paper by Dr. Holland in The Century Maga zir.e for November 'recently Scrib ner'sj: There is no point at which personal memness betrays itself so strongiy and surely as it does when brought in to relation to schemes of public im- (S -days fle toeik of proVement. Set a subscription paper going through a community, to raise money for some public object, and it will usually sift out the mean men as certainly as a screen will sift the dust from a bushel of coal. We have a great many men who are not stingy with thtir families, who are by no means parsimonious, yet who have insuperable objections to giving away any thing that does not minister directly to their personal comfort or gratification. A church is wanted, or a public library, or a park, or some thiug else for the common benefit, aud the want and the effort to meet it furnish a very reliable test of the character of those appealed to. We have rich men iu every community so notoriously stingy, and so unfriendly to all schemes of public improvement. I thatjthey are not even approached for a contribution, un me owier iiano, we have men iu every community who have what we call "public spirit." Nothing that can minister to the gen eral good ever receives a cold welcome from them, or a niggardly response to its appeal. Very few men are so stolidly elrish ! 1 . . - a. At a - 1.;.. mat rney cannot, see inai luctuuersoip in a family involves certain duties toward the family support, protec tion, mutual assistance. The head of a family no matter how selfish and stingy lie may be recognizes the fad that he owes to that family shelter, sustenance, clothing, education, etc. Very few, too, fail to see that, as citi zens, they owe certain duties to the town they live in, to the state, to the nation., They pay their taxes, and expect to pay them. It cannot be said that they always do this willingly or honestly, but they know that they must pay something for the laws that protect them, for the roads that give them passage across the country, and for the support of the Government. As heads of families and citizens of the state, they apprehend the fact that they owe duties whose fulfillment costs money. What is neccessary be yond this is that they should sea that membership in'a social community in volves duties just as really and dis tinctly as family ties or citizenship. No man cau belong to a social com munity as all men do who are not hermits without having imposed up on him a great many duties. He owes it to that community to make it, so far as he can, intelligent, comfortable, re spectable. There is no wise scheme of improvement to which he does not owe his support and .encouragement ; and he cannot turn his back upon any such scheme without a failure in the ffices of good neighborhood, or with out convicting himself of a mean sel fishness that is disgraceful to hit, and to the family and town to which he belongs.

One of the old-time e litoi s of Mich ig.tn, says the Dctro't Free Press. w:n boasting the otlior d-iy I hat ho had nev er been sued fn- libel, or attacked in his sanctum, but he wo'dd re -a'l niriny narrow escapes. Twenty-livo )ears a?;o ho w.ns rttnning a rod-hot paper on the line of the Mieiiigan Central Rail road. A man named Carson, who was running for sonio county olliee, was given a bad racket, and the editor re ceived a note that if he. had anything more to say ho might expect to receive a good pounding. He had a still moro bitter attack tho next week, and tho paper was hardly mailed before in walked Carson, tho ca-ididate, accom panied by a brother and two cousins. The four were strapping big fellows, and each was armed with a horsewhip. Tho two compositors and tlio "devil" got out with all speed, leaving tlio ed itor without support. Ho realized tho situation at once, and began: "Walk in, gentlemen; I presume you have come to horsewhip me?" "Wo have," they answered. 'Very well. Have you thoroughly considered this matter?" "It doesn't need any consideration," repl'cd Carson. "Yoti have lied about ine, and I'm going t lick you within .in inch of your life!'' 'Just so, my friend, bnt first hear what I have to say. Did you ever hear of tho press being stopped because the editor was cowhided?"' "I dunno." Well, you never lid. Lick mo all you chooso and my paper comes out week after week just tlio same. Tho power of the press is next to t!io lever which moves tho universe. It makes or breaks parties, builds up or tears down, plants or destroys. Aggravate tho editor and the press becomes a sword to wound and kill. Wollop mo if you will, but next week I'll come out more bitter than ever." There was an embarras-ing silence right here, and the face of each horse whippcr had an anxious look. "It will go out to tho world to America, Canada, England, France aye! clear to Jerusalem, that tho Car son family of this county live on roots and johnny-cake; that they st'dc a dog from a blind man; that they murdered a peddler for a pair of two-shilling sus penders; that the women arc club-footed and the men work their cats when they f-ing; that the ." "What is the regular subscription price to the Herald ? ' interrupted Car son. "Only twelve shillings a year." "Put us four down." "Very well six djilars that's cor rect. Run m and see me all of you, and if any of you want to see any of my Detroit exchanges I shall be only too glad to serve you." A Lion in the Wayi Lions are one of the dangers between Zanzibar and the great lakes. 'They sometimes hunt game in packs of six or eight.. Some animals show light against them successfully. Lions nev er venture to attack the adult elephant, and even avoid the buffalo, unless they are more than two to one. In general they do not attack caravans, and never in daytime. At m -sr. a hungry lion may spring upon and carry oil" a strag gler while passing through the brakes and jungles. Hut it is otherwise at nifht. When lious scent tho caravan from afar, particularly if it contains goats or b'-asts of burden, they ap proach, and announce their vicinity by terrific roars. Nevertheless, in a well-in-closed camp there is no danger; tho lions never attempt to clear tho obsta cles, and marksmen from behind tho palis:;d -;s can pick them lift" with al most unfailing aim. There is danger only when the camp is not completely inclosed, or when those i side o 'ut lo attack them. 49ely
