THE FAITHFUL HEART.
BY MRS. GRACE WEBSTER HINSDALE.

 

Oh! happy years, sweet. happy years!

Ye float in memory’s sky, .
And toward your veiled yet golden light

I turn' my longingeycl

 

I do not mourn that ye are lled,
I do not sit and weep—— -
But down within my woman’s heart
My grief I bravely keep.

Few touch my hand as if they knew
That once it held a prise—-

Few read the deep and happy love
That shines within my eyes. ‘

I do not speak of buried joys.
I do not walk in tears; . '
But yet my faithful heart is full
Of all those happy years.

, Life's-roses bloom with fragrance swept
And earth to me is bright; -
1 offer not a thankless prayer,
Nor try to shade the light. '

Nay, sunshine falls on me as warm
As though my Joys were here;

I know the past, the happy past,
And naught beyond I fear. '

But o’er my life a veil is out. .
Which others may not see;
Yet ’lis a veil of snduess sweet.
And not of gloom to me.. .

The lily of the valley hides
Its pure and tender bell,
And so my heart, behind its strength,
Of loneliness can tell!
, ,

And none can know the cherishedjoys
Which satisfy my heart, '

For while I have the vision sweet,
They see not but in part.

Therefore Iwalk with cheerful smile
Among my wondering friends,’

And calmly drink the mingled 6131)
Which God, my Father, sends.

‘ Oh! happy years! sweet, happy years;
Ye are not lost to me! '
I wear my crew oflove with joy,
Though others may not see!

 

From the New York Valid.
GEN. QflEBMAN INTERVIEWED.‘

 

HIS VIEWS OF MEN AND THINGS IN EUROPE.

 

Gen. Sherman givesthc following inlpres-
sions which he received while on the Euro-
pean tourIfrom' which he has juSt returned.
He-says that everywhere he was treated with
the utmost consideration, and that nothing
occurred during theenlirc tour to mar his
enjoyment. His account of the state of the
country does away with the popular im-
pression that fair France-still bears incfi‘ac:
able traces of the track of the invader. To
the question whether Paris presented indi-
cations of its purification by fire in the terri-
ble days of the Commune, and as to the con-
dition of France, generally,-he answered :—
“Not having ever visited the city before,
I- could of course make no comparisons be-
tween the present Paris and the past ; but to

to all its pristine splendor. France, indeed,
everywhere is rapidly recovering item the
effects of War, both foreign and civil. All
classes are vying in efforts to restore lhe
land to its former condition of prosperity.
The efforts already made are bearing fruits.
The land is in a high state Of culliVation,
even in the places which were desolatcd by
the Prussiaus, and I could hardly perceive a
trace of the invasion, save in the form of a.
Prus'sian uniform or two, which, when I
was there, yet lingered in some of the towns
on the eastern border, although I suppose
even these must be gone by this time.”

In regard to the political status of France
the General hardly liked to risk an opinion.
He said :—

“To all appearances the people are per-
fectly contented with the present condition
of things. The press is not now nominally
.but really free; but the oppoailion news-
papers indulge in far'less viluperaiion of the
government than kindred Organs on this
side of the Atlantic. The claims, however,
of the Bonaparte as well as of the Orleans
family, are advanced by newspaper advo-
cates, and measures of government briskly
canvassed, but in no way that can indicate
a dissatisfaction which threatens at all the
safety of the republic.”

“And M. Thiei‘s ?" ‘ -

“I considch. Thiers a patriot, earnest in
all that is for his country’s good,and Ilhink ,
under' his administration there is every
reason for believing that France will arrive
at a high pitch of prosperity. The republic,
at any rate, will last Thier’s time If it does‘
not survive him.” _ ‘ ~
In regard to the French troops the Gene-

“I had no opportunity .Of seeing any great
number at a time, but the personnel and‘dis—
cipliue of those I did see struck mc’very for-
;cibly, and I consider it a proof of how de-
‘ceilfui are appearances .ihnt they were not
more effective in the field. ’ Their being,
hoWever, on the avérage, far less stalwart .
than their antagonists, may account for
their ineflicicncy in hand-lo-liand contests as
well as for theirlack'ofeudurance." '
He had not words enough to praise the re-
sult attained by lhe constant drill of the
Prussian seldiers ! ~.
“They are without doubt by far the best
drilled troops that ever marched, and they
ought to be, for they spend their entire lime‘ ,
at it. Their appearance of parade is a. most _
magnificeut’sight ; as for their effectiveness,-
that has been demonstrated.” _

“How do they compare, General, with
lhe army that ‘wcnt marching through
Georgia ?’ ”

“They of course have not the experience
of three or four years 'of continual warfare
which that army had, but I do not mean to
make any comparison between them. The
troops composing the army of the South-
west were perhaps a finer body of men than
the average of the Prussians,but I think,
generally speaking, that the army of each
nation is best‘ adapted to that nation’s
needs." _ ‘

' As to the future of-Bismark’s empire, Gen. .
Sherman said :—

“United Germany, in my opinion, is des-
tined long to exert a controlling influence in .

gelhcr by 5 single band will not fall to pieces
at thathnnd's- withdrawal—an event which,
happen soon. I. met all of Prussia’s galaxy.
marck ivho unnamed in ecclesion at his.
villa, and was prohibited by his physician.
from seeing any one at the lime Inns in the
country. His disease was a nervous difll-'
why, and his condition at that time was

alone."

‘you anything you fancy. I! may seem a
dreadful thing for a bridegroom lo confess,
but I begin to feel quite sharp after our
early dinner. If you don’t mind my leaving
you for five mimltcs—l’

I signified that an absence of that dura-
tion might be supported, and Fred started
for tho refreshment-roOm.

We had been married just three days, and

. the glamour of the honeymoon was upon

everythingalhe ”atmosphere was ratified
beyond that breathed by every-“day mortals
—the earth glorified with a new beauty—
the heavens with a new light. We his not
bread and beefsleak, but some ambrosial
dish untested before, and drank golden
nectar, etherealized from hot coffeeapols.
'Iwatohed Fred item the car window
unlil‘hc disappeared in the refreshment
room. What a splendid fellow he was!
Such eyes—such a mind-such teeth—such
aheart—such a general combination of
perfectionsl How charming—show delight-
ful—how altogether inexpressible it was to
helongto him forever, never to be separat-
ed'more l—then whiz, clung! Horrors!
,the train wasoff again—off with Fred still
discussing boned turkey in the eating-saloon,
and his faithful wife hopelessly quiescent in
the ladies‘ curs—Oil, thundering at the rate
of thirty miles an hour, those whom law
and Gospel both declared only death should
part. .

“What's the matter, mum i” asked the
conductor noticing my. excitement. '

“There—there’s a ‘ gentleman leftlbc-
hind.".I'llaiped- . ‘ .

“Is there, mum i” was the'sloical reply.
“Bless yom' soul, that’s nothing new.“

“But—but he’s my husband,” I falleréd,
blushing to my finger-lips, as I felt that
fact was something new. .

Three indicaiurned'arougd to Stare at me,
and there was an unmistakable tiller be-
neath the heavy moustache of a gentleman
who sat opposite. '

“Sorry. mum, but it can’t be helped. If
gents Will stop at bar-rooms to wet whistles,”
we can’t wait for ’cm.” ,

A baproorp ! Fred in a bar-room, wetting
his whistle! What did the odious men
mean? I tried to crush him with a look, '
but I wasn’t equal to it. Fred, my Fred—
iu a bar-room 1’ .

“You needn’nic alarmed,” said an old
gentleman, kindly;“lhere will be another
'accomu'lodniion' at eight.” '

“At eight l" and it was now half-past four.
isuuk back upon the cushion in quiet des-
peration. Whatrwasao become of me ?
Wilhcllpi entire abnegalion peculiar to
the early phases of the honeymoon, I had
but my little velvet porlmonaie, handker
chief and vinaigrette in Fred’s breast pocket
--n_ot that I hadn’t a pocket of my Own, but
there was silch a delightful novelty in feel.
ing that now I had a right to his.

Was there ever a confiding bride left in
such a plight? Without a. husband and
withoula cent, and—not the least misfor-
tune to one inclined to the feminine weak-
ness of tears—,wilhout even a pocket-hand-
kerchief. ' '

“Ticket, mum.” -
The conductor was again making his
rounds. -
. “I—I haven’t any ticket,” I stammcred,
in bewilderment.
“ Two thirty, then, if you please, mum,—
as far as Philadelphia.”

“Ticket, sir—" -

“Two thirty, as quick as you can, mum
—-time’s short." 2

But my—my husband has my ticket}, I
faltered. “He was left at B—slalion,
you know 1'” , -

"Beg pardon, mum, but our orders are
strict. That sort of dodge has played out
entirely on this-line. Two thirty, mum, if
you please. Will refund at the office when
ticket is presented.” - '
The man suspected me, actually suspect-
ed rue-Fred’s wife! Oh dear, dear? How
utterly lonely and unprotected I felt, after
the strong trust and sweet reliance that had
been mine!

“[—I haven't any money,” I said in a
faint voice. “You’ll have .to put me out
somewhere, I, suppose," I added with deter-
mined resignation. ' '
“Allow ‘me, madam”—-lhc moustachcd
Stanger was up; pocket-beck ’in hand—“let
me arrange this matter for you until we

me his card, with a smile. .

If I hadn’t been marl-ill, I should'havo
fallen in love with that delightful man on.
the spot. A's it was, I only murmured some

unintelligible thanks, and slipped his card
into my pocket as n memento of a modern
knight.

We were to have stepped all night in
Philadelphia. As the train neared the city,
a new perplexity seized upon me.- Where
could I go? If it were daylight I might
remain in the ladies‘ waiting room; but
Fred would not arrive until nearly ten at
night. I had no money to pay a -hackman,
to go to a hotel, or even get my supper.

A sudden thought flaéhed into my mind
—Aunt Tabitha lived in Philadelphia! I
had directed a-lettcr to her only a few
weeks before, announcing my approahing
marriage. True, the reply ‘was rather dis,

'couraging—bcing dismally prophetic of all

sorts of evils that awaited me, and darkly
suggestive of shares and pitfalls' in that
broad road that leads to matrimony and
destruction. _ '

But Aunt Tabby took a vinegary view of
everything. She hid never felt the mellow-
ing influence of a honeymoon.

We arrived at the depot ; moustached
riend had left the car some! c before, 301
was‘ unprotected again. An army of back-
men besieged the door of the depot, and I

gle. Oaths and whips resounded about my
ears, until I was finally seized upon and
carried off by the~ most energetic of the
party.

Having secured me in a very~ dirty vehi-

cle, be regarded me with a triumphant grin.

“If you will get my trunk now, please, 1

“Your trunk, is it? Where’s the bit of
tin for it i” . -.
“The—what ?” I asked in perplexily.
“The tin—the bit of tin, to be shore.
How am I to get it without the tin ‘1’"

My check! I had forgot that Fred had
my checks also. Alas, for the powerless-
ness Of woman! ' I saw my new Sarufoga,
filled with the dainliest of lrossealls, bun-
dled Off with a lot of hotel baggage, - and
couldn’t raise a finger to claim it. it was
the last straw. on the camel’s back; and I
drove in tears to Aunt Tabitha’s using my
tissue veil as a pocket-handkerchief, and
thereby tattooing my face with streaks of
blue. ‘ . ,

Even Anal Tubby’s monumental rigidity
was overcome by my appearance, when she
met me at her own immaculate doorstep.

"Lea you! and only married three days!
Pay that hackman, Mary Jane, and send
him ofl‘ before hé sees any more of this

mean-spirited scoundrel, to leave you with-
out a rag to your back! You poOr, delud-
ed innocent! Put on the kettle, Mary Jane
and hurry up the lee; this poor child is
trembling like a leaf, and well she may.”

I was too dispirited and miserable to al-
lempt to stem the torrent of Aunt Tabby’s
indignation. I let-her talk on.

“Oh, and ain’t it dreadful, main 1’" I heard
the sympathetic Mary Jane murmur, aside
to her mistress; “such a sweet young
creclcr as she be! And only look at her
face! I expect he's been hanging of her.”

Aunt Tabby parsed up her mouth and
shook her head expressively. '

_ “Let this be a warning to you, Mary
Jane.”

“0h,l’m share it will, mum,” was the
feeling reply, .

“dhe‘ll never lay eyes on him again,” re-

~ pcated Aunt Tabby, solemnly: “mar!

Lord bless my soul. Who’s that i”
There was a knock at the door that fairly
shook the prim liltle house. '

“Is my wife her-e i" asked a quick anxious
voice, and the next moment Fred's wife
was there, clasped in the strong, brave arms
—crying and laughing -iogelher on his
broad, loving breast. -.

“How did you get here so soon? How
did you find me? Oh, Fred! Fred! I have
been so frightened and miserable l”_

Fred’s answer was a shower of kisses.

“How did I come? In a coal car—there
was a train of them just behind. It wasn’t
the pleasantcst ride in the world. but ll
brought me quickest lo youmpoor little,
frightened birdie I“

And as I met the glance of those loving,
eyes, I nestled closer to his heart, and felt,
in spite of Aunt Tabby’s expectations, I was
at home again.

three living Japanese on board. The ves-

‘laie geographical and ethnological research-
es Show clearly that there is very- little

mystery about it. The Jap‘aneee.18re evi-
dently of the same race as our Indians,
their language being .to some extent similar
to those of our tribes;‘ and it is not at all
unlikely that during the thousands of years
to which Japanese history goes back, many
vessels have floated from their chores to
ours,~bcaring living persona of both sexes-
But, even if were impossible for them to
cross the ocean, it is certain that Asiatic:
could easily make their way to America
across Behring’s Straits or theAleptian
Islands, the distance between which would
be an easy voyage for a canoe.

In an account of a. voyage down the
Amoor, by Perry McDonough Collins,
the first American who ever descended
that river, he called the wild tribes on
its banks Indians. He was familiar, by
long personal Observation, with the tribes
in Oregon and California, and declared
he could see no material difference be-
tweenlhcm and the tribes on the Amoor.
Their appearance, their garments, their
mode .of life, the-. lodges in which they
dwelt, he said, were all similar .to those
of the natives of Oregon. Their language,
also, seemed to him very much the same,
though of course, he had no critical knowl-
edge of their dialects. Taking this resem-
blance for granted, and Here being no great
difficulty in crossing the ocean by the way
of the Aleutian Islands, even in canoes,
there is no longer any mystery about the
peopleing of America. Dr.‘ Le Piongeon, a
learned gentleman, maintains, after long
study of Pcrnvian‘antiquilies, that civiliza-
tion and population originated on this con-‘
linent, and that the arts, customs, manners
and religion of the Chinese, {the Assyrians
Sand Egyptians, are only fdeveloped imila.
'tions of Peruvian originals. According to
Semincnt geologists, this continent was the
first land that rose above the ocean that
formerly covered the whole of thp earth.

 

Some years ago a» handsome volume
came from the press entitled the “Life of U.
S. Grant.” From its pages the following
extracts are made, in which the author
gives his estimate of the persbnal charac-
teristics of his subject, ntler long and inti-
mate personal acquaintance:

“Grant’s personal habits and tastes are
exceedingly simple; he despises the pomp
‘and show of empty parade, and in his
severe simplicity and manly/pride he acorns
3all adventitious aids to popularity . He
:lives plainly himself. and cannot tolerate
calculation or extravagance in these about
ihim. . a a e a u
lHis appetites are all under perfect control.
3‘ He is very abstemious, and during his entire
Western campaign the officers of his staff
.were forbidden to bring wines or liquors
into camp. He has been represented do be-
giug one of the most taciturn of men, and in
.one respect he is. He never .divulges his
thoughts till they are matured, and never
,aspires to speech-making; and even in
private conversation he falls into silence if
,he Suspects that he is likely to be reported.
He is the most modest of men, and nothing
gmo're annoys him than a loud parade of

- personal opinions or personal vanity: but

.with his intimate friends, either at home or
around the camp-fire, he talks upon all s'ub-
‘jecls, not only_fluently, copiously, but in the
most charming and good~naturcd manner.
* * * He has a retentive
:memory, and is deeply interested in all
matters which concern the interests of he.
:infinity, and particularly his own country,
gUpen all such subjects, in fact upon all the
,vital questions of the day, he thinks care-
fully and profoundly, and expresses himself
;with great case and good sense. His under.
standing is of that incisive character that
"soon probes a questian .to the bottom, no
matter how much the newspaperslor. politi-
cians may labor to confuse it, while his
‘judgmenl is so deliberate. honest and truth-
;ful in its operations, that it may be implicit-
Ily relied upon to arrive at a fair and unbias-
edconclusion. * . * * *
It is well known that he did not fail in a
single instance where a change was made
in pulling the right man in the right place.
.This was due neither to chance nor' snap
judgment, but to his habit of careful Obser-
ivation. * - * * " *
,Straightforward and :frank in all things
himself, he respects these qualities wherever
.they are found. Indeed, the most striking
peculiarity Of his nature, both as a man and

:a general, is a profound and undeviating
:lruthfulncss in all things These who have

ny lo the statement that he never told a
ffalsehood or made a voluntary misrepresen-
Elation of fact, and will believe us that it
would be alumst as impossible‘for him to do
