At the King’s Gate,
A beggar sat at the king's gate,
And sang of summer in the rain-
A song with rounds reverberate
Of wood and hill and plain,
That rising bore a tender weight
Of sweetness, strong and passionate;
A song with sigh of mountain pass,
Ripple and rustle of deep grass,
The whispering of wind.smote sheaves,
Low lapping of long lily leaves,
Red morus and purple-moonaed eves,
The king was weary of his part,
The king was wrod of his crown;
He looked across the rainy land,
Across the barren stretoh of sand,
Ont to the rainy sea;
* He heard the wind beat Jond and free
The gilded casement, sullenly
Falling away with mist and rain.
“Bat oh! it is a weary thing
To wears crown and be a king,
Unending war with care and pain;
Oh, for one golden hour and sweet,
To serve the king with willing feet!"
But he would sleep, and from his heart
The jeweled silken girdle loose,
And give it room to tarn and choose
An easior measure for its beat.
Into the gilded chamber crept
d breath of summer, blown with rain
i Wi d wei Toaves against the pane,

The Maelstrom,

{that ealled the Mal:trom, which lies
to the southward of the Loffoden
| islands, off the coast of Norway, neat
a large rock in the middle of the strait
dividing the island of Vier and Mos-
kenes, It is produced by the conflict
ing currents of one of the great Nor
wegian fiords. There are most extra
| ordinary and romantic legends
cerning the Maelstrom, but careful
observations have shown that the
| peril has been magnified. At flood
{or ebb tide in summer it offers ne
| danger even to small boats. Tout in
| winter, and during stormy eather,
even large ships an | steamers a not
| dare to venture near it. At certain
| stages of the wind and tide during

mighty whirls, against which the

A. Poe, which painted a descent into
the Maelstrom, had no hold on
facts whereupon to de slineate his mar-
| velous picture. Stripped, however, of
its fictitious dunge rs, the Maelstrom is
still a gruesome fact, and the Norwe-
gian fisher-boats are careful to give it
a wide berth, except in very smooth
and pleasant weather, when the tide
is just right. This is rather a dis-
agreeable necessity, as it is said that
the Maelstrom and its vicinity furnish
a favorite feeding-ground for the

The Indian Commissioner's Report,
Commissioner Price, of the Indian bu

interior his annual report for the fiscal your

eties is regarded by the commissioner
very important auxiliary in the civilization
of the Indians, and he points to the bene
fits derived from their work during the past
few years,
On the topic of Indian education the re-
port says: Exclusive of the five civilized
tribes, the whole number of Indian pupils
attending school during the past year has
been 8,608, Of these 468 were in attendance
at the Carlisle, Hampton and Forest Grove
training schools. Of the remainder 4,610
attended reservation boarding schools and
8,998 reservation day schools, The average
attendance for the year has been 5,249, In.
dustrial training for boys is carried on at
agency boarding schools and is receiving
more and more attention each year. In con-
nection with fifty-seven schools 1,428 acres
are under cultivation. Blacksmithing, tail.
oring and harnessmaking ave taught at four
schools, seven teach shoemaking, ten car-
pentering and fifteen the raising and
care of stock. Training in these
branches has been stimulated by the success
of the experiments at Carlisle, Hampton
and Forest Grove. An appropriation of not
less than $60,000 should be made by Con-
gress at its next session to properly equip
existing agency schools for industrial work.
The whole number of day schools now in
operation is 101. The commissioner trusts
that the time is not far distant when a sys-
tem of district schools will be established in
Indians settlements which will serve not only
as centers of enlightenment for those neigh-
borhoods, but will give suitable employment
to returned students, especially the young
women, Tor whom it is specially difficult to
provide. ‘he amount asked by the commis-
as 0
sioner from Congress for Indian education
for the year June 30, 1884, is $917,000,
