'FROIT FLOWERS.
While we are sleeping, stealthlly creeping,
They come, as the green comes in early spring;
Here there’s a vine or root, here shows a tender
shoot;
Faintest of posies, of. ghostly roses,
' Within this garden are blossoming.
What busy sprite, at the dead of the night,
Scatters the seeds of these magical weeds?
Frond of lily and flower of gilly,
Breathing out only an odor chilly,
Ferns that keep in their sizulptured sleep
A memory of J nne's warm, spicy noons,
Of her starlit hollows and building swallows.
Of her waxing and waning moons?
But now that_summer's smile has ficd.
And all of her pomp and bloom lies dead,
Is it the souls of her flowers, again,
That reappear on my window pane.
Blooming at night in a splendor of white.
To fade away in the strong sunlight?

Tun NEW ovnnooa'r.
It was Christmas day, but the festivities
of that occasion scarcely existed for the_
Harford family. The mother had done her
best to make it seem like Christmas ; but
her drunken. husband slammed the door be-
hind him, while shc, her face flushed with
a blow, turned to her boy, Fred, who had
sunk down by the fireside. and given him-
self up to melancholy thoughts.
While sitting thus, Fred formed a resolu-
tion. He would go to the'city and find em-
ployment; he would be sober and industri-
ous, and afford2that help and comfort to
his poor mother which she could look for
from no other source.
Fred carried out his determination. Two
years had passed by, and he was to come to
spend Christmas. It was early .in the
morning when he reached home, and pro-
ceeded to wake his mother in a nove’l manner.
He commenced one of, their old familiar
carols, which he had many a time sung with
the little oncs'at home. Not a jot cared he
whether he awoke the whole neighborhood
or net with his resonant tenor voice, so that
he awoke his mother, and so that she rec-
ognized his voice. That was all he cared
far. But Mrs Harford was already aWake.
Thoughts of her boy had made her sleep-
less, and she heard his swift footsteps clang—
ing down the street, then stop suddenly at
the door, when the singing began ; and a1-
togcthcr it made her heart leap, for she fan-
cied she knew the carol l But the voice ?
It might be her boy’s but if so, how chang-_
sé—how deep and manly l A knock follow-
ed ‘the carol, during the singing of which
she had dressed herself, tumbling over her-
self almost in her haste, and making a noise
that awoke the children in the next room,
y though it did not awake her husband. He
was sleeping off a drunken fit, and it would
have taken something a. little lesnloisy than
booming cannon to arouse him.
In a moment she was at the door, and
mother and son were in each other’s arms.
After a long embrace she stood away to
look him up and down, and after a fond
survey, she Said, “How you are grown.
Fred! and how well you look! and how-
well-to-do in that great cost; it makes you.
look quite like the gentlemen l”
“It’s a real treasure mother," said Fred ;
“and doesn’t it keep the cold out l'.’
“I should think so,” said the mother, lay.
ing her hand on it appreciately.—“It‘s beau-
tiful thick cloth, Fred. How did you man-
age to get it out of your small earnings, af-
ter what you sent to me? I’m sure I’ve
been afraid thatyou did not leave yourself
a penny scarcely.”
“You needn’t have been afraid, mother.
Why, I’ve got a watch, too i look here, I
gave fifty shillings for it.”
“La, Fred, how ever did you manage it ?"
“I’ll tell you by and-by, mother. 'Now
please help me 00‘ with my great-coat; for
my hands have got. thefiogMcm—ma W
night. I had half a mind to bring this coat
for father. But then-thinks I, it would soon
be lodged atmncle’s—casy' come, easy go,
you know—so I decided rather to tell fa-
ther how to get one. as I got this : hc’ll
prize it all the more for getting it so.”
How merrily the breakfast-time passed,
and what a happy day they hoped to spend!
The sunshine was come into the house at
last ; it lighted up the faces ofthe sad moth-
ther and her children, and made all bright.
Toward nine o'clock the merry hubuh in
the house awoke Mr. Harford, and learning
that Fred was come, he set himself to the
terrible task Of getting up.
Presently the church bells began to chime,
and Fred proposed that they should go to
their house of worship. “I shall be glad to
see the familiar old place again,” he said.
All the children wanted to go with Fred,
and he wanted his fatherto go, too. He re-
fused decidedly at first ; it was out of‘ the
question, he said, and he never Went to
church now. “All the more'reason why
you should go to-day, father,” urged Fred.
“But I’ve got nothing fit to put on,” said
the father.
“Yes, you have,” said the wife : “your
best coat is up stairs.”
“How came it there i” he asked, in aston-
ishment.
“ Never mind about that now” said Mrs.
Harford l “but just go and make yourself
spruce, and go out with Fred this once.
We may never meet together on a ~Christ-
mas day again, you know.”
“Look at Fred’s coat—'what a beauty l”
cried Susie, as Fred took it from a peg be-
hind the door.
“Why, Fred you look as though you were
getting on in the world,” said his father.
“How did you manage to get that and your
watch too i" ,
“Yp'u must know I haven’t spent a far-
thing of my wages on them,” said Fred.
“Then how in the world did you get them?.
“The price for halfa pint of beer a day
for nearly three years got. these for me,”
said Fred. All the fellows at our place are
allowed half a pint a day. I told master
that-I’d rather not have any, and ifhe liked
to make any allowance for my not having it
he might ; or I'djust leave it, and say noth-
ing about an allowance. He said he liked
to encourage young fellowa to be abstainers,
and allowed me three half pence a day;
Thathas been faithfully given me for two
years and nine months, and has been some-
' thing like six pounds five shillings in my.
pocket. With that you see I have been well
able to buy my watch and coat, and send
home some little Christmas gifts last year,
- as well as to bring these.”
“Who’d ever ’ha thought that three half
pencea day saved would (have run up to
that in less than three years i” said Mr.
Harford, thinking dolefully of the many
pence, and not only pence, but sixpence, he
”pent day after day during .that time
and'9for years before—sixpences that made
many pounds, which would have bought
him coat, watch, and perhaps a house too—
so, many had he squandered. Ned was try-
ing to do a sum of the same kind in mental
arithmetic, though with lower figures than
those that cameto his father’s mind; and
both began a series of self-reproachings, and
bothfelt that they had been foolishin the
highest‘ degree.
“You did Well—you did well, Fred,” said
his father, with a sigh.
Then Mr. Harford and the children went
to church. When they returned Mrs. Har-
—somcthing like the poor fellow as our
parson was reading of this morning, as was
“clothed in his right mind."
“Ah, it does me good to see you,” said his
wife with glistening eyes.
He looked down at his coat to avoid her
glance, and said, “This coat may look tidy,
missis, but itdon’t keep the cold out; I was
regular nipped coming home from the chap-
cl."
“You ought to have a great coal like
Fred’s,” she replied. “You might easy get
one, as he did, afo
re next winter.”
“What! save three half pence a day?
Course I could, and I’llbegin,” he said.
“But I did something more than that, fa-
thcr," said Fred. “If Ihadn‘tI might just
have kept on saving for a month or two,
and then let it all go.” -
“What did you do i’” .
' “Why, I justkept away from the publlc
houses. They’re the places to keep one
from having a coat to one’s back; they
strip you if you frequent them ; but they’ll
never clothe you. You’ll begin to save three
half pence a day for a great-coat, father, as
you say; but wiliyou do the other thing ?
If you only would, I’ll tell you what you’d
get besides. Why, good boots, good hat, a
watch in your pocket, clothes for the young-
sters, good food and plenty of it,'a comfort-
able and happy home and wife, health of
body, and a clear and peaceful mind.”
“ Surely, surely l” chimed in Mrs. Har-
ford, in a sad, half-hopeful tone. ‘
“And only one thing robs you of all vthat,
father. You know what it is, and how to
conquer it, too ; our minister told it all so
beautifully this morning. God gives victory
over all evil, through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Only we must not be still, and leave the
fighting to our Captain ; we must strive and
struggle hard to overcome, relying on his
help. You remember that he said all that,
father 1" ~
“Yes, I minded it Well. It seemed all for
me. I thought then,if I could begin striv-
ing I might overcome. Others—hundreds
and thousands , of others—have fought
against this cursed habit of drinking, and
overcome it.” ' -
"So may you,” said Mrs. Harford, “Why,
you’ve begun already, James. Think, you
haven’t had a drop to-day l All you’ve got
to do is to just go on as you’ve begun, that’s.
a1 .”
“That will be enough, I guess, as the days
‘go on. Still, folks say as the first step is the
hardest, and I’ve' taken the first, you say.”
“Yes, yes.” -
“Ab, and I feel it'too. Fred, ‘my boy, if
we all live till next Christmas, we’ll have a
dinner of our buying, please God, and not
of yours ; and if you come to see us, I’ll
have as respectable a great-coat o 3 you.”
“And I too,” said Ned, standing up very
straight to give emphasis to his words. “No
more o'mg tin shall go into publics, not if
Iknow it. I knows a trick 0’ getting the
value of it now, as I did’nt think of afore I
saw Fred’s great-coat.”
So, to make a long story slmrt, it came to
pass that Fred’s great—coat was an instru-
ment chosen to work quite a revolution in
Harford’s home. Did you ever know a than
give in who commenced climbing onward
and upward, with a strong determina-
tion, and relying upon God for strength and
assistance ? '
No, he did not give in: and the happy
Christmas-day which he spent on that oc-
casion of Fred’s memorable visit was the
first of a long series ‘of happy ones. The
sunshine he brought did not fade away; it
brightened and brightened into a perpetual
glow of comfort and peace.
Fred did come again on the following
Christmas, and walked to the chapel ' with
his parents and brothers and sisters ; but
the house with a great—coat on his back- that
(lay ; there were two others that had got
them the same way that he had got his.
He wore the same one that he appeared in
on his first visit. “It still' looks almost as
good as good as new,” he said, “and I shall
on the
means~of doino‘ so much good that I have
a sort of strong affection for my first great-
coat which I could never have for any oth-
el..l7 .
THE AMAZON—It rises in the little Peru-
vian lake of Laurieocha,just below the lim-
its of perpetual snow. For 500 miles it
flows swiftly through a deep valley. - Then,
,turnng sharply eastward, it runs 2,500
miles across the great equatorial plain. Two
thousand miles above its mouth its Width is
a mile and a half, increasing to more than
ten miles at the head of the delta, where it
divides, and after running 400 miles, presents
a front of 150 miles upon the ocean. For a
great distance it is bordered with side-chan—
nels or “ bayous,” as they 'are called upon
the Mississippi, named by the Indians, s'gar-
apcs, or “ canoe paths.” From Santarem,
the principal town abov’e Para, one may
puddle a thousand miles parallel to the riv-
er without entering the stream. For twen-
ty-fivc degrees of latitude every river that
.flows down the eastern slope of the Andes is
an affluent of the Amazon. It is as though
all the rivers from Mexico to Oregon united
their waters with thy Mississippi. A half
score of these tributaries are larger—the
Danube excepted—than any European river
out of Russia. The volume of its waters is
greater even than the breadth Of the river
Would indicate. At Nauta, 2,200 miles from
its mouth, the depth is 40 feet, increasing
rapidly as it approaches the ocean. The
largest ocean'stcame'r could doubtless steam
2,000 miles up the Amazon. ,
The vegetation of the valley is exuberant.
There is a bewildering diversity of grand
and beautiful trees, a wild, unconquered
race of vegetable giants, draped and fes-
tooncd by creeping plants. The moment
you land upon the shore you are confronted
by a solid wall of vegetation, through which
if you wish to proceed,you must how a. way
with axe or machete. Palms, of which 30
varieties are noted, constitute the majority
of trees. Then there are “ cow trees,” one
hundred and fifty feet high, yielding a milk
of the consistency of -cream, used for tea,
coffee, and' custards. The “ caucho,” or
rubber tree, though of a different species
from that of the East Indies, produces a guru
which constitutes most of the rubber of com-
merce. Agassiz puts this tree forty or eighty
feet high, in‘the'samc class with the “ milk
weed ” of our American pastures. Of orna-
mental woods there is no end. Foremost
among these is the MoiranPimea, or “ tor-
toisc-shcll ” wood, the most beautiful in
grain and color of any in the world. Enough
of this is wasted every year to vcnccr all the
dwellings in the world. For many years to
come the exports of the Amazon valley
must be mainly the products ot‘its forests.
Yet, strangely enough, timber is now one of
the chief articles of import at Para. A city
of 35,000inhabitants, lying 0n the verge of a
great forest, buys pine boards from far-away
Maine! This folly will in time come to an
end, Contrary to all that we might expect,
the climate of the Amazon valley is temper-‘
ate rather than tropical. It is more equal
than in any other region of the world. Year
in and year out it ranges from 74 ° to 87 °
——the fair mean being 80° .—From “ The
Andes and the Amazon,” by A. H. Guern-
sey, in Ha/rper’s Magazine for February.
