THE GOAT Al ti.Vtil!..
The goat stood on the railway track
Whence all liN mate luid fled,
And proudly archo 1 Ids sturdy Un it
And bent his horned head.
With feet firm planted, there he stoo l,
As bound to hold Ills own ;
The nrenttire had (?ot up it- blood
T was gniiiL clean to tho bono.
Tho train rolled on, 'twas time to ir",
Oh 1 why did be refin T
The engine whistled shrill, but no,
To leave lie did not clmoce.
lie seemed to cull, "fUy,ooiur.vdi's,uy,
Why huvo ye turned ami run f" t
And wondered t'.i.it they wouldn't
sUy
To see a tittle fun.
Attain he stoo l, In haughty pride,
A challenge from each horn ;
The hissing steam alone replied,
And fast the train rolled on-
He heard the engine's laboring breath,
The thunder of tho train.
Yet stubbornly, his post of death,
1. turiuined to uiuiutuiu.
Then catue ft midden, fearful shoek,
The goat oh! where was he t
Ask of the buh or bJg K'ay rook
With fragments scattered free
Of hoofs, and horns, and things per
haps,
It wore not well to note,
For iiuught butdlseoiineeted scraps
Was that pour billy-goat.
L. II V. JOIUINAL.
THE CRIER.
While they sat before the lire,
Nothing more did hi desire,
Thau to get a little nigitcr,
If he could ;
And his heart boat high and higher,
And her look grew and shy shyer,
While he slid up elo.-ie b.idj Iter,
As he shoiiKl,
Then he ventured to Inquire,
If her sister, June Marlur,
And her mother and her sire.
Were cpiito si ill r
And from time to tint.-? he oyed her,
As though he would like to buy her,
And his baslifullnusj was dire,
For a spell.
Then his husky throat grew dryer
Wheu ho told her that the 'tHpiire
To himself woulil glailly tie her
If she would ;
Might he now go ask her sire T
And he thought he would expire,
When she suid to his desire,
That he could.

Investigation led to no new dis

possible to dineovcr tbo in taring men,
or find ont tho mode of tho i-soap .
About thin timo, tbo ruidurH, nnder
tbo loaderaliip of ono Mosby, became j
exceedingly bold, thoy attacked now
couiors iu opou daylight, robbing
them of blauliotJ, watchui), money,
and otbor property of value. Ru
mors of rightful import were oircu-
latjd through tho camp of tuuu being
murdered for their blankets and
money. Aftor this, more men raiss
iug at tho morniug roll-call, of whom
thoro could bo no reasonable account
givon. Under Big Poto a company
was orgauizod, armed with clubs,
who proceeded to the shelter former
ly occupied by tbo missing tuon. In
ipiiries being mado among those who
wero living near, no information
could bo obtained, otherwise than
tho fact that outcries woro hoard
during tbo night, uud that thors was
a sculild near i but scuned of disor
der being common duriug tho night,
thoy had taken but little notion of
thorn, sinoo, as peujoablo meu, thoy
wishod to avoid all wrangling.
Nothing at first could bo found, iu
tbo sboltor formerly occupied by
those tuon, to oxcito sospiciou. Most
of the crowd had dinpersod, wbon
ono of tbo meu, on his hands nud

also his desiro for possession ; and

thor progross was arrostod, and be
started book wi:b horror at tbo un
expected appearanco of a human
hand. A crowd soon guthurtd

was unearthed, whoso throat had:

bis bead bruisod iu a terrible niuup
nor, no doubt doue by a tcrriblu
blow ef club. In tbo same space,

victim, with his throat cut-
The nows of tboso horrible mnri
dors which had been discovered,
spread through tho prison, ns if by
telegraph, aud a largo crowd soon
assembled arouud the sceno of thes
horrible atrocities.
Tho pobco proceeded to tho shel
ter of sovoral notorious thlovos and
bad characters of tbo prison, and ar
retted them. Through information,
or olue gaiuod of one of tLono, they
woro induced to dig iu tho oholtor cf

Rapidly after tho porpotrution of
those eold'blooded alrocities, strong
police foroos wore orgaaized, nnder
the leadership of Big Ptto, after-
wanls a judgmont was established

lar pnictising Attorneys, who took
foes of Indian moat, beans, and small
currency la payment fur sorvioes

said, bribed the judgo and ohiuf of

Newspaper correspondents writ
ing from tbo now Northwest grow
very enthusiastic over tim mammoth
farms of Pakota. Thoro are single
farms thoro of tens of thousands of
acres. Ono called tbo Honanzt
farm, anil owned by Olivor l'alry
mple, cuibiaccs fifty s piaro miles of
contiguous territory. In t as:t
Oonnty there aro four farms with
a combino 1 extout of 8.",0) acres
Tboso big farms aro ownod in almost
ovory instnuco by uou-rcHidenls,
often by a syndicate of capitalists,
whono solo objuol is to get as much
money out tf their investment as
possible. Kvorything is dono as f ir
as it can bo by machinery and by
wholesale. The laborers cruployod
aro often imported for tho purpose,
nud h-avo ugaiu after harvest. The

far as tho Territory iu coucornod,
tho crop might ulmost as well have

It is doubtless very iutcrotding to

uou-robident owners, nud the idea is
growing that tho system is not con
ducive to t'ao permanent intvrosls of
tho Territory. Tbo Northorn I'rci

usually accompany it It
often affects the su fferr w ith
general lassitude, accom
panied by loss of appetite,
sleeplessness, a tired feeling
nnd a high fever, the per
6on afflicted growing Weak

comes a mere skeleton, a
thadow of his former self.
