A Vienna dispatch to the Stand
i\g to the
withered roses from memory’s garden hov-
er, brings back to us the hidden page that
was full of such tilings. There is a vision of
a face that is not forgot, though the voice is
silent now, hfeard only through the nielodv
of the music of “ Long ago.”
*• There’s a turned-down leaf”——Ah, we
needn't envy any one, whether a cross
marks the spot or not. There is in every
bosom the grave of some fond wish of some
fervent, life-giving hope.
Who dares say lie understands another, he
it his nearest and dearest friend? And yet,
how unconcernedly, as though it were of ah
things the most simple, do we judge people.
Misled by outward appearances, we often
persuade ourselves that we have reached
that fathomless depth—the human heart.
How often when thoughts are veiled the
deepest, does the mind seem to he uncover-
ed. Alas for the heart trembling with pain
and anguish that guards a tranquil surface !
Through how many a bittei conflict with its
own self must it pass ere conquering; it
bleeds inwardly and makes no sign.
Ah, these skeletons in our houses! We
.ty hide them from the world, but it’s all in
Linger drag the anchor of yoUr life-boat
through the angry billows,' fastening it firm
to the rock ot agds. No matter if you can
not see, only feel the breaking of the chain
in the dark, dismal night; every link is
rivited by His hand—it can never break.
By and by, when our Father’s sublime
purposes be fulfilled, and .mankind stands
forth, a being, created in His own image
and without sin, made wise and
noble through His sacrifices and ofieri tigs as
the angels themselves—you will realize that
a psalm has arisen out of the song that wsls
started so long ago, and so soon passed be-
yond your listening ear.
“ Perhaps from the loss of all you may learn
The song that the seraphssing i
A grand and glorious psalm
That will rise, and tremble, and thrill,
And fill your breast with its gMteful rest;
And its lonely yearning still.”

y dispatch to the Times from Gu *
lipoli of February 28th says an or
dev from the Turkish minister oi
war orders the governor ot Darda
nelles to prevent any more men-of-
war, whether British, trench or
Austrian, from entering the sea of
Marmora.
The St,. Petersburg correspondent
of the Times repeats that he has rea-
son to believe Russia is disposed to
come to an amicable arrangement
regarding the straits, but felicitation
at England’s supposed design to
form an offensive alliance with Aus
tria is increasing.
The Times publishes the follow
ing from Vienna: Negotiations con-
cerning the conference proceeds
slowly,'but Austria’s resolution to
bring about its meeting is unshaken,
and it will probably meet in spite
of the present apathy of the powers
on the subject.
The discussion on the vote ot
credit at a preliminary meeting of
the Austrian delegation lasted sev-
eral hours, only a few members de-
claring against the credit. One sec-
tion was ready to vote the money
unconditionally, while others were
only willing to do so on condition
that it shall rot be used in the fur-
therance of any scheme of annexa-
tion. J
A telegram from Bucharest re-
vived in Paris states that Austria
concentrating troops at Herraan-
fitadt in Transylvania.
The Times in its financial column
states that Willis Percival & Co.’s
failui*e was precipitated by the fail-
ur« of Grussi Bros. & Go., Greek
Merchants of Finisburg, who owed
them 250,000 pounds.

|ra|it concessions to Austria arises
h’°m the fact that the Princes ot
Roumania and Servia have resolved

The Times has the followtng from
ftninc : The Italian, government has
"arned the Vatican authorities,
through the inspector of police, that
they could take no measures to pre-
'ent the possible, disturbance at the

4’iie pages of the Book of Lite aie all
blurred with tears, and marked with
turned-down leaves. To us all the poet
Longfellow, beautifully speaks:
‘1 Thy fate is the common fate ot all,
Into each life some rain must fall. ’’
’Twere vain to note the different causes
that mark the Book of Life with these
turned-clown pages, for they are vast and
numberless, as the pink and pearly shells
hidden beneath old ocean.
Perhaps the pearly gates up yonder, have
opened wide and a loved one has entered
“ the mansion not made with hands.” Only
a glimpse of the joy and peace beyond is
given us, and then the gates arc closed.
We stand without bewildered, and weep
and mourn. Our tear-dinnned eyes cannot
see the white hands beckoning us upward :
our ears have grown so dull listening to the
sad beating of our own hearts, that we do
not hear amidst the angel songs, the one,
our loved one, ever singing, answering

they have passed beyond our reach, and it is
said “ the golden moments of the stream of

dise \\here they await the resurrection morn
they reach out one hand to us, and stretch
the other toward that light that shines from
the throne of God, and so if we will we are
upon as a bold, bad man. He was impli-
cated in the murder of two negroes iu
that neighborhood in 1871. Subsequently
he was 'arrested on a requisition from the
governor of Missouri, charged with mur-
der, stood MS trial, was acquitted,
returned to Texas.- and has led a roving
life ever since, spending the principal
portion of his time in the fron-
tier counties. The prospects of hatch-

When arrested he had shaved clean, but
was identified as the leader of the gang by
the messenger of the train. They started
with Spotwood to McKhiney on Wednes-
day. about 3 p.m. He said when arrested
that he had been “ taken in once or twice
before for train-robbing and cattle-steal-
