OLD JONES IS DEAD. I sat in my window, high overhead, And heard them say, below in the street: "I suppose you know that old Jones is dead?" Then the speakers passed, and I beard their feet Heedlessly walking their onward WAY. what more could there to say? But I sat and pondered what it might mean Thus to be dead while the world went by; Did Jones see further than we have seen? Was he one with the stars in the watching sky? Or down there under the growing grass Did he hear the feet of the daylight pass? Were day time and night time as one to him And grieving and hoping a tale that is told? kiss on his lips, or a hand on his brow, Could he feel them under the churchyard mold, As he surely had felt them his whole life long. Though they passed with his youth time, hot and strong? They called him when at last he died: he had been for many a year; Yet his faithful memory Time defied, And dwelt in the days so distant and dear When first he had found that love was sweet, And recked not the speed of its hurrying feet. Does he brood in the long night under the sod On the joys and sorrows he used to know; Or.

far in some wonderful world of God, Where the shining seraphs stand, row on Does he wake like child at the daylight's gleam, And know that the past was night's shors dream? Is he dead, and a clod there down below: Or dead and wiser than any alive; Which? Ah, who of us all may Or who can say how the dead folk thrive? But the summer morning is cool and sweet, And I hear the live folk laugh in the street, Chandler Moulton. LARIAT SHINN'S PRIZE VERSES.

Peaches vie with brilliant Iris For the laurels of EpirusWinning almost every time. And wuss goose egg can take prizes When persimmons get their sizesMost too, large for sense or rhyme.

An Interesting Relio Owned by Wilkes-county Lady. (Ga.) It is probably not generally known that very interesting relic of the war-times is owned in this place.

It is the camp chest of President Jefferson Davis, which he used while visiting the armies of the South. It is solid mabogany and as well made as skilled workmanship could make it; it is three feet long, two feet deep and ODe foot wide, by actual measurement: leaf bangs down on each side, and when raised: make a table three feet square, the lid forming the center leaf. The interior of the chest is in two compartmente, one large and open, the other filled with cases of different depths, that slide down and rest on each other. Some of these were made for ing writing materials, while others were made for holding salt, pepper and other condiments for table use. The lamented Mr.

Robert Tombs recognized this chest a few years ago, and remarked that he bad eaten from it in the camps near Richmond. At cue evacuation of the Confederate capital Mr. Davis found that be could nos carry this obese with him, and so requested Col. J. T.

Taylor Wood to present it to Maj. John B. Weems. The latter, now deceased, was the father of Mrs. Belle Virgin, of this place, who now owns this very interesting relic.

Mrs. Virgin lived in Macon until few years ago, when she moved to this place. While living there she was first offered $1,000 for the chest by a Northern man, who finally ran his bid up as high $8,000, when this lady, whose heart has always burned with that deep sense of patriotism for which our noble Southern WOmen were 80 noted, frankly told him that she would not sell the relic at ary price to man who had been an enemy of the South. This chest was brought on to Washington at the close of the war at the same time Mr. Davis came through, and was concealed here.

Mrs. Virgin afterwards carried it tO Macon when she moved from here there. 1c has been in ber father's possession ever since it was presented to him. Tue following note, the original of which Mrs. Virgin has, accompanied the chest: COL.

J. B. WEENS, Commandant of Post: In return for your kindness and attention both to Mr. Davis and myself. please accept his camp chest.

He trusts that you, under more favorable auspices, may have an opportunity of using it. April 4, '65. J. TAYLOR WOOD, Colonel. An Undertaker's Yarns York "I have just returned from the house of young married man who died last night." said an undertaker, "and his weeping wife told me she wanted his coffin made large enough to hold his gun and game bag, because he was so fond of shouting." suppose you bave a great many such queer requests, remarked a listener.

yes. It was only about a month ago that a mother, frenzied with grief, when I was about to put the lid on her daughter's casket, took from a closet a satin bail dress, and insisted upon having it used as a cover for the corpse. some people want favorite books, letters, Bibles, pictures and such things buried with their dead. It seems to soothe their anguish to some degree and you have to humor them. The queerest thing of the kind happened to me just after went into the business.

It would have been laughed at on a minstrel stage, but in a house of grief had to be tolerated with solemnity. The 10- year-old boy of a poor woman bad died of lever and I was eugaged to bury him. Her neighbors bad all gathered down stairs. I went up could to asic ber if there was anything more I do, and she handed me a little bundle, saying, put this at the foot of Johuny's coffin.

The Prince of Wales sent bis sons to sea with a purpose. If on their journey around the world the royal youngsters managed to get rather more than an average share of play they also got a full share of work. They did their duty like any of the other middies, and, what's more, did is with bearty relish, as may be seen from every page of this diary.

In their three years' roving the Princes bad in the main fair winds aud Bowing seas. But They encountered few storms and no pirates. one night as they sailed over the Southera Seas, near Sidney, they fell in with the Flying Dutchman. July 11, 1881. -At the Flying Dutchman crussed our bows.

A strange red light, as of a phantom ship, all aglow, in the midst of which light the masts, spars and sails of the brig, 200 yards distant, stood out in strong reliet. As she came up the lookout man on the forecastle reported her close on the port bow, where also the officer of the watch from the bridge clearly saw her, as did also the quarterdeck midabipman, who wan forward at once to the forecastle. But on arriving there no vestige or any sign whatever of any material sbip was to be eitber near or right away to the horizon. The night being clear and the sea calm, thirteen persons altogether saw ber, but whether it was Van Diemen, or the Flying Dutchman, or who else, must remain unknown. The Tourmaline and Cleopatra, who were sailing on our starboard bow, flashed to ask whether we bad seen the strange red light at a quarter to.11 ordinary seaman who had this morning reported the Fiying Dutchman from the foretopmast crosstrees and smasbed to atoms.
