The dancing waters, brightly gleaming, Leap tip to kbss our snowy sail. Afar they keep a ceaseless heating Along the echo-haunted shore. The same sad tale they keep repeating That they Uftve told since days of yore. They murmur of two lovers, drifting Upon the bosom of tho lake, While pencil rays of moonlight shifting With silver frost-work trace their wake. One whispers love to ears that listen With tremblings as of half-affright, While thronfrh their drooping lashes glisten Her eyes, like Ucw-drop3 in the light. riex velvet cheek now glows, now paleth, And flutters like a bird her bread; Her snowy hand all idly trailctli A lily by the wave caressed. Her lover's arm nn close enfolds her. Their lips arc wedded ia a kis; Close o'er his swelling heart he holds her, AH trembling with ecstatic blits. Some lurking goblin saw their wooing. His baleful eyes ablaze with hate; He sought to compass their undoing, For envy of their happy state. He summoned to the work nnhiy The slumbering demon of the wind, He, creeping from his cavern srowly, Like an assuin - kulked behind, And pouncing n,i hi? prer, he heaved them All helple.-s to the yawning deep! The madly-tossing wave received them. And closed above with angry sweep. The goblin seized the maid and bore her In triumph to liis dark a'axlc; In vain her lover lingered for her Upon the beach w ith pebbles strewed. The woods and rocks with his lamenting Were filled from mora to fall of night; The waters cold knew no relenting, Xor reeked they aught of his sad plight. And still the waves keep ceaseless beating Along the eelio-hiiiinU'd shore. The same sad tale they keep repeating That they have told since days of yore.

A distiller nnmed Jones, who lived with his family near the lower bench of tho Big Smoky Mountain, had been annoyed a o;ood deal by the revenue rangers last fall, and determined to change his location and busi ness to a more secluded spot. To cany out this purpose he selected the head of a deep gorge some four miles dis tant, walled iu with cliffs, where during the winter, assisted by some of his friends, he erected a log building. As soon as the cold weather w as over and the spring fairly opened, the still and other things necessary were moved to the place, and the work of violating the revenue law was resumed. Several runs" weie made, and Jones began to congratulate himself that he had at last found a refugo beyond the prying eyes of tho Government hirelings, where he could pursue his avocation in peace. Tho still house being some distance from where his family lived, Jones rarely visited them more than once in a fortnight. Every thing went on we ll enough until about four weeks ago, w hen he failed to appear at the accustomed time. Nothing was though of this for a day or two, but when another week elapsed with out tho return of Jones, the family became alarme-d, and they thought that he had been captured by revenue jayhawks and carried to Knoxville or some other place wheie violators of the law are occasionally convicted and punished. The alarm was given throne U the sparsely settled neigh borhood. A small number of men gather ed, anil accompanied by Mrs. Jones and her son, a youth of ten of twelve years of age, they started up the gorge in the di rection of the still house. On reaching the building they found the door closed and fastened, and no sign of Jones or any one else could be seen. Mrs. Jones called the name of her husband sev eral times ; no response, however, came back ta relieve her anxiety. But upon at tempting to force an entrance they were greeted with those peculiar notes of warn ing which the ear of the East, Tennessee mountaineer never fails to recognize. The door was at once broken down, and a sight met them that caused all to start with fright and horror. The foim ot the distiller lay upon the floor, with eyes starting from their sockets, tho features horribly distorted, and body swollen to twice its usual proportions, while the whole inteiior of the building was alive with rattlesnakes, some iu coil and ready for battle, but the larger pro portion stupid and inert, as though they had been imbibing liberally of the illicit fruit of the still. The mother and son Hed horror stricken from the place. A consul tation was had, and as it was impossible to rescue the body of poor Jones without incurring fearful risk, it was determined to reclose the entrance and other apertures and fire the building, which was done. Tho rarty stayed nntil the house was entirely consumed, and nothing remained but the now useless still and tiic calcined bones of tlie miserable distiller. Stair and Hall Drussels Carpet.

The sewers of Paris tleserve to rank among; the wonders of the world.

Passage through the remaining por tion is effected by means of boat. Along these niairnilieent sewers a:e carried the j wires of the telegraph as well as pneumatic : tubes for the transmission of packages by I atmospheric pressure. The stream of wat j er passing through the main sewer is so swat that not a bit of anything is seen floating along. They are kept free from any large amount of sewage deposit by means of peculiarly constructed barges, each of which does the work of a huntlred men.
