Yob may have long forgotten, Tom,
▲ boy you used to see
About your father’* blacksmith ihop.
Called BiU McGrath-that’s nr.
I thought ’twould do your old henrt good
These line* from me to view,
To let you know for tort? year*
I-je not r«*r**«* ?•<*-, ^
Torn and raise? together, 1 om
And both now ‘g«‘id old men.’
We haven't seen each other/by
I can not tell you when:
But Louisville is a diflerent place,
I hardly think you'd know
The landmarks and the people, Tom,
Ot forty years ago.
They call the grave-ya/d "Cave Hill, Tom.
And luonntneiits are high,
O’er moot of them already dead
And those that are to die.
Tb.-y put them up, t«>r fashion’s sake,
,Qf every kind of stone,
That they might nee how grand it look*
Whenever they are gone.
I haven’t been to meeting. Tv in,
Now for a year or two,
Fur \vh«Vi I do I'm sure to get
Infp some fellow ’s “pew.”
&ome “slmddj,” once as poor ag us,
Now in the whisky ‘biz,’
Will i< ok at me a* if my soul
Were not a* good as hi*.
When you and I once vvent to oiiurch,
Where Barier* More now stands,
The people met with Christian smiles
Apd shook with Christian hand*,
fbe preacher wa* a good old sou!,
Was loved by t^d and young,
And when he “lined” the goyd old hymn,
The -congregation' sung.
When Sunday came, "o matter, Tom,
In sunshine or in rain,
The people always came on foot,
The women all drested plain.
And those who had dear little one*.
Taught them the Gojden Rive—-
It must have pleased cyr Father, Tom,
To >ee that ^uuday-schooi.
Byt time hr.tb wrought its change*, Tom,
New churches bios been made;
The old ones w ere not 6ne enough,
And now ale “in the ghade,”
The seats are cushioned, and the pewp
Are reused to the host.
And he is nearest God, an j l'eavcn,
Who pays for his the most.
Oh, everything is different, Tom,
A crowd is paid’ to sing,
A negro winds the organ uii.
A great big ugiy thing;
The preacher giv'.s the nuiobi r out;
The heads are lifted higher.
Because they think it ini|>olite
To interrupt thy^hoir.
The women used to walk, d- ar Tom,
To that old church of ours,
And listen with attention to
Jam pi eacuef s earnest pQ’.ver*;
But now, if Suod.ty wears a cloud,
The ladies say, “Yoi bet.
That I’m not going to church to-day
And get my bonnet wet!"
Our good old preacher used .to say,
W th specks upon his nose,
“If there are any in the crowd
Who’d spare ino some old clolhps,
I’d be quite thankful if they’d bring
Them here next meeting night;”
And you be sure that good pld man
Would get a wardrobe quite.
It’s “business” with the preachers now—
They can’t afford to live,
Unless a groat big salary
Their “flocks” afford to give.
They can not point the road to God,
Or of His goodness tell,
And the membr»_j think if they don’t^y
Their soul* will go to Hell.
Tom. what’s religion grown to be
Within the past few year)
You dou’t see people praying now.
Their eyes filled up with tears—
Ah, Tom, this ie a city now.
And bound to put on airs,
it is not as it used to be,
J nd still nobody cares.
.I’ve often thought I’d walk a mile,
Barefooted in the snow,
To hear the sermon and the songs
Of forty years ago.
To hear the good old sisters shout,
fbe brothers syy ‘auie**,’
But, Tom, I fear those good ©id times
Will never come again.
'But, Tom, as I am getting old,
I’ll toll.you what let s do—
Let’s lift our hearts to Him above,
To Him alone be truer
Let s prgy to Hun to make our path
One of fairest flowers,
Jud if hypocrites all go to Uell,
It’s no concern of ours.

Mr. 3aker, our Commissioner
of Immigration, reports that over
2,COO new-comers landed at Galves-
ton during the month of SeptemberL fortunate being clear across the tent,
the ,ripg, a mammoth balloon was
placed in position, asd at the word
“go” the shackles were unloosed, and
sure enough he did go. Allowing
his under lip to drop down like that
of a steam canal pledge when it ex-
pectorates a mouthful of mud, the
hippopotamus gave a snort that re-
verberated through the tent like
thunder, and then plunged forward
through the balloop, wrecking it in
a very handsome manner, but uu-
tortunately killing the two men that
held it, and upsetting the
i-iox's CAGE,
Which contained four iiona of un -
usual fierceness. The moment the
over turotw cage caught the eye of
the InppopotAiuus, lie boynded at it
and bit qyt a mouthful of wood-work
aud iron oars, leaving an aperture i
through which the lions escaped, and"
at once began to add their roars to
the tumult that raged on all sides.
The big elephant, ‘Horace Greeley,’
who had been quietly looking on ai:
this time, inslead o! keeping a check
on bis trunk, began to wave it in the
air, and after a moment’s trumpeting,
broke his fastenings and picking up
the Cardiff Giant, which lay upon
the ground near by, threw this un
squarely in the jaws of an alligator,
that swallowed him wtiole and with-
out chokiug. This sight so frighten
ed a “canvass” man that he fell,
and the alligator snapped at him, but
too quickly, and the victim bounded
from the tip of the crockodile’s mouth
iuto tbe asms of a bear, who hugged
him fondly aud carried him oil under
the 6cata to eat a,t his leisure. The
elephant now reached out with bis
trunk and shook the center-polo as
a boy shakes an apple tree lor fruit,

From passengers, conductors and

women were silting iu thj front pal-

in at the door ard without showing
the slightest signs of trepidation,
advanced to the centre of the room.
Every oue remained motionless—con-
versation ceased—all eyes were turn-
ed on the strange visitor. The hog
stood for a moment, then made a
short circle in tiie middle cf the floor,
aud alter doing so walked into an
aljoining room, tv ry one followed
it. Whilst some were in the room,
some in the di*or. but ell intently
all this uproar were the pitiful calls
of the seventeen men who hung for
dear life to the centerpole, which was
new aud slippery and difficult to
