NOTIIING LOST
Nothing is lost! The drop of dew
That trembles on the leaf or flower,
It is but exhaled, to fall anew
In thunder shower;
Perchance to shine wit lint to bow
That fronts the sun at fall of day,
Perchance sparkle-in-the now.
Of fountains far away.
So with our deeds, for geed or ilt,
They have their power, scarce understood ;
Then let us use our batter will
To make them rife with good ;.
Like circles on a lake thi;y go,
Ring within ring, and never stay,
Oh, that our deeds were fashioned so _
That they might bless always.
A Popular Poet Sketched
BY A VISITOR
Miss Alice Carey is a dignified, lady-like
woman, quietly but handsomely dressed i n
a suit of black silk. She is of medium
height, neither stout or slender, though. in
cliuiug to the former rather than the latter.
/ler expression is pleasing, though some•
what sad, and the face is one that a stran
ger would return to again and again, raiding
at each look an added charm, so that what
was at first pleasing but rather plain face,
produces at length the effect of positive
beauty. Miss Carey is an habitual invalid
sad great sufferer. She has a colorless coat
plesiuo, soft dark hair, showing hero and
there a thread of silver, and dark expressive
eyes. She is no longer young as the world
reckons age, ha: essential youth beams in
her not too uufrequent smile, and from the
tranquil depth of her earnest eyes. She has
gathered wisdom, from the experiences of
nearly fifty years, years brightened not only
by the waimth and beauty of summer,, but
some of them rendered memorable by long,
dreary winters of loneliness and sorrow.—
She is a native of Ohio; with the blood of the
Huanemits, the Puritans, and the heroes of
the ltevolution flowing in her veins. In the
quiet life described io her "Clovernook Pa.
pers," all the early-years of her life went by.
The shadow of bereavement fell early upon
the quiet, thoughtful girl. First, the moth
er was taken, then an older sister who had
in some measure'filled her place, and later, a
young sister, the idol of her love. Speaking
of the older sister. Alice says: "She was
more cheerful than I; more pelf-reliant. I
used to recite to her my rude verses, which
she praised ; and she in turn told me stories
of her own composing, which I at the time
thought evinced wonderful ability; and I
still think that sister was unusually gifted.
Just as 1 came into woman-hood, deat sep
arated, us, aed that event turned my dispo
sition, naturally melancholy, into almost mor
bid oom."
Since 1850, Miss Carey has been a resi
dent of New York, one of the brightest or
naments of its literary society, and one of
the moat valued and constant .contributors
to the literature of the day. She and her
sister own a pleasant home, No. 53 East
Twentieth street, where the people best
worth knowing, drop in 'of an evening, with
out ceremony, and exchange views on the
most interesting topics of the day. The
Hon. Horace Greeley is a warm personal
friend of the sisters, and has a long estab
lished custom of taking tea with them on
Sunday -evening.. Many of h i s friends,
knowing where to 'find him, take this oppor
tunity of calling on him, and in this way the
most eminent politicians, statesmen a a d
thinkers are to be found in Miss Carey's
pleasant drawing-room. The mu hers of the
sisters are as simple and unaffected as When
they were living in their Clovernook home;
while their quick sympathies, large hearted
ness and liberality of thought, have wade
them a power for good, and endeared them t 6
the wise and pure, not only for their own,
but of other countries. -
Miss Carey is the friend of progress; a
believer not only in God, but in humanity;
not only in the past, but in tbeluture—a fu•
cure in which woman • will assume her true
position, and share the work and the wealth
of the world with man. -

'Yes, sir.' she replied. 'My mother heard

me to tell her the ten commandments; and
then we kneeled down awether, and she

`you have a good mother. This witness is
competent,' he continued. 'Were I on trial

She told her story with the simplicity of

TUE SNOW. PRORLENS -- Lt was reported
last winter that the sheds built by the Pa.
Mile Railroad Company to protect their trucks
from the deep snows of the Sierra Nevada
mountains were crushed by the weight of
snow that fell upon them, and that some oth•
or method of protection would have to be de
viled It seems, however, by a letter in the
San Francisco Bultetin, that this plan of
shielding the track has not been abandoned.
The company aro now engaged in erecting
sheds over the cuttings and ocher exposed
points. They are of heavy timber frame
work, with pointed gable• roofs, and look as
if they could withstand any pressure of snow.
Nearly forty mi'es of the stack will have to
be thus covered, and the quantity of timber
required - wdt be euortugus. Not less than
twenty-two saw mills, mo'st of them worked
by steam, are ran night and day, employing
nearly two thousand man, and yet they do
not work up the needs of the company. In
a few weeks twenty•eight mills will be run—
ning. It is estimated that it will require no
less than eight hundred thousand .feet of
lumber to construct a mite of sheds. So
great is the demand that the country on both
sides of the track is being rapidly denuded
of its forests.

with
