in. ‘
I went to Antokollo, to the. house’ where
we had spent so many happy hours, feeling
a kind of horror at being the bearer of such
tidings. The arrest of Count Konrasofi', in
itself a dangerous thing, became more so
when l reflected that he would be absolutely
in the power of General Klapka, who, as
military governor, had charge of all . the
state prisoners. As for Vladimir,-I made no
doubt that he would improve this chance to
save his precious self. It would be some
hours, and possibly some days, before it
would be found~out that they had not cap-
tured the real culprit.
Mademoiselle Olga came," in looking gaycr
and more brilliant than usual. When I told
her of her 'lover’s misfortune, thisgtender
young creature exhibited the utmost cour-
age, and _only wept when I told her of the
handcuffs, But when I expressed my indig-
nation at Vladimir’s conduct, she turned on
me like a'gyouug lioness: he was Count
Konrasoff’s brother, and how dare I so speak
of him before her? I hastily apologized, and
added one more to my list of the incompre—
hensibililies in woman‘s nature. I offered,at
any cost, to carry the assurances of her
faithfulness to Count Loris.
“He knows it better than you could tell
him," she said, locking scornfully at me.
But with her woman’s wit she devised a
plan by which I could communicate with
my friend.
The next morning I presented myself -at
General Klaplra’s levee, and, having obtained
a few minutes alonewith him, I gave him to
understand that I knew the state prisoner
Konrasofi' was Loris and not Vladimir. and,
explaining that I had an account I wished
to settle with the former, I obtained permis-
sion to present it. General Klapka was
ready enough to believe me one of those
summer friends who change as the seasons
change, and the fact that a state prisoner
could not alienate any of his property did
not make it the less annoying to have claims
presented to him. '
General Klapka took me to a window,and,
pointing significantly to the fortress where
Jhe prisoners were confined, said, “I have a
question to ask of y'ou. Now, if you at-
tempt to deceive me, in less than twenty-four
hours you will [rave an apartment there.”
I bowed silently. ,
“You are probably aware,” he continued,
“that I am deeply interested in Mademoiselle
Orviefif. Have you seen her since Koura-
solf’s arrest?”
' “Yes,” I replied; “I saw her immediately
afterward.” ..
“Did she express any fear for him,or show
any excitement?”
"‘Not in the least,” said I.
“Did she endeavor to send any message to
Kourasofi! by you? Examine your recollec~
tion carefully, or—”
“No,” said I. “I told her I should try to
see him: I candidly acknowledge that I
asked her if she had any message to send,
and she declined positively.”
He stood gazing thoughtfully on the ground
for a little while. “You may go,” he said at
length. “Count Kourasofi has not at present
any money at his disposal,”——he smiled as he
spoke,——“but you may get his promise to
pay your principal with interest,—with good'
interest. And remember, my friend, if you
suspect that the prisoner is not Count Vladi—
mir Konrasofi, you” will be careful not to
speak of it ; you will 'find it best to observe
my—requcsts.”
The next .day, and many‘ days after, I
presented myself at 'the outer fort where
Count Kourasofi was imprisoned, and, after
having been duly searched and found to carry
nothing with me but a huge account book
showing Count Kourasoff to be thousands of
roubles in debt to me. I was admitted to
his narrow apartment, where we would sit ar
a little table and figure and dispute by the
hour. During these apparently stormy in.
terviews, when a great deal of information
was conveyed to him about-Olga as'wcll as
public affairs, the sentry who walked up and
down before his open door cast many angry
looks at me, and always ushered me out with
more haste than civility; for Count Loris had
managed to engage the affections of the sol.
diers who guarded him, as-well as everybody
else's. My parting assurance to him always
was that the mines of Siberia would claim
him yet; to which he would respond by
saying that no misfortunes of his would
benefit me or make him pay my dishoneSL
account. __
He had another visitor besides myself.
- Day after day a priest, whom I knew to be
my friend at Ivanof ka, but who was appar-
ently fifty years older than in the August
before, appeared at General Klapka‘s level:
He seemcdso old as to be nearly imbecile,
but with singular persistence he came,always
telling some endless tale of the wrongs he
had suffered at the hands of the Kourasolfs,
and always demanding to see the supposed
‘ Vladimir. At last, one day, in a' mingl‘ed fit
of impatience and unusual good nature, Gen.
Klapka ordered him to be admitted to Count
Kourasofi', where he talked and mumbled so
incoherently that the count appeared unable
to understand him and to be quite worn out
with him. However, he continued to come
at intervals, and his stupidity became a jest
for the soldiers of the guard ; but Count
Loris understood from his wandering talk
the exact stateof affairs at Ivanof ka during
his absence. - '
Meanwhile, the city was in a state of ex-
citement difficult to describe. The arrest of
Count Vladimir Konrasofi, as was supposed,
followed by that of several other officers and
members of families of distinction, created
aprofound impression; but the government
seemed in no haste to bring the prisoners to
trial, and they were treated with extraordi-
nary leniency. There was great surprise
manifested at the disappearance of Count
Loris Kourasoff; but General Klapka did not
hesitate to say that Count Loris knew enough
of his brother’s schemes to make his absence
convenient. if not necessary.
All this time General Klapka was more
and more devoted to Mademoiselle Orviefi.
She treated him with an indifierence that
was not devoid of coquetry, but he seemed
under a spell. I Once asked her if she felt no'
stings of remorse when she remembered Gen.
Klapka’s foal and disinterested affection,how-
ever ungencrous he might be. She gave me
a look that was meant to wither me. “If I
would sacrifice myself and all that I have or
could hope for for Loris Kourasofi, do you
suppose I would hesitate to sacrifice General
Klapka too ?” she said. - ‘
“I do not know," I answered dubiously.
“Maria von Spreekeldsen sadrificed me to
Herr Sachs; I know that much.”
“Maria von Spreekeldsen 1" she said con-
temptuously; and.clasping her hands behind
her back, like a child saying a puzzling les-
son, she came and stood before me. “Do
you mean to so —do you really mean to say
——that the sentiment between you and Maria
von Spreekeldsen could be called lose .9”
Now, I thought this was very unkind of
Mademoiselle Olga, and showed duplicity as
feel‘ngs. _
“Come,”.said she, blushing, but straight—
ening up her slim young figure, “do you
know that when one loves as—as—”
“As you love Count KOurasofi‘,” I said.
She took his picture from about her neck
and kissctut forpnswer. “Very well, then ;
but men are so dense! You think that I love
like that tedious Maria; General Klapka
thinks he can persuade me to love him ;
while Count Loris thinks—I know not what.
My heart is’a mystery to every one of you,
and to myself as well. Look what General
Klapka brought me yesterday," she continu—
ed, producing froin a cabinet a picture of
him, elaborately set in a small gold frame.
She was clever with her pencil and brusb,and
she had, with childish revenge, touched it up
so that the general, who was anything but
handsome, looked even uglier than ,Nature
had made him. ‘
I could not help laughing at the ludicrous
effect, and, while she held it off at arm's
length, she made a contemptuous moue at it,
besides several unflattering remarks; but
she suddenly'lhrew it down and burst into
sobs and tears: “I sometimes wonder that I
can laugh, for my heart always aches,—-al—
ways. I feel that Loris Kourusolf stands on
the brink of an awful fate. That wretch is
capablebf anything; he would have him taken
out and shot any morning that he discovered
we still love each other.” .
I tried to comfort her, but could not. I
too felt a dreadful uncertainty.
“You may tell Count Loris this for me,"
she said, drying her tears,—“That I long to
scehim, and if I canno't see him by lawful
means I will see him by unlawful means. I
will conspire.” -
I repeated this imprudent speech to my
friend, who sent her in return a stern com-
mand to put all thoughts of conspiring for
her and for himself out of her head. I
found she had arranged in her mind a very
- plausible plan,by which she was to penetrate
to the interior of the fort, and, taking his
place, suffer him to escape; but this fine
scheme was brought to naught by the count’s
peremptory orders.
The weeks dragged slowly along. I had
begun to feel even a sort of security for my
friend, when all at once a volcano burst be-
neath our feet. One evening, on returning
to the modest apartment in which I had
lived in Wilna since Count Kourasolf’s im~
prisoument,I found awaiting me a gentleman
whopolitelyinformed me that my presence
was required at General ‘Klapka’, headquar-
ters. Ihad little to fear for myself, but I
felt an alarm for those who were so dear to
me; and I had lived long enough in Russia
to know that the military governor of a prov-
ince can ruin whom he will. I follOwed my
companion with a composed countenance,
but a sinking heart. Upon reaching the
barracks I was ushered into a small room to
await General Klapka’s pleasure, my polite
captor remaining with me. To enliven my
spirits, he dwelt upon the horrors of exile.
“But, my friend,” I replied, “exile does
not now mean what it did in the time of the
czar Peter. A There are whole villages of
prosperous inhabitants in Siberia, priests,
school-masters, clerks, government employes,
all exiles, only, the emperor prefers them to
live in a certain part of his dominions.”
"Ah,” said he, sighing and shaking his
head, “they are those who acknowledged
mercy of the emperor. For those who per-
sistcd in calling themselves innocent, the
mines—tire railways—‘—”
“But if I wished to call myself guilty, of
what should I accuse myself? Of trying to
get a settlement of my affairs with Count
Kourasoff ?” Thi view seemed to strike
him so forcibly that he , left me to my own
sad fancie .
The hours dragged on until nearlymid-
night, when I was awakened from a heavy
but troubled sleep before the stove by a mes
seuger from General Klapka commanding
lny presence. I followed my guide lo a
small anteroom, where I saw the general at
a table in an inner room, reading a closely.,
written paper. He motioned me to enter,
and, rising, carefully closed the door after.
He was simpl frightful in his anger. He
thrust the paper at me, and I began to read
it: it was a minute account of Vladimir
Konrasoff’s escape, of the true meaning of
the visits of the village priest and myself to
Count Loris, of Olga Oravieff’s faithful de-
votion to him,-—even a copy of a few lines
she had once rashly conveyed to him.
While I was reading, he had taker. his
sword from the scabbard, and was passing“
the naked blade through his fingers with a
sort of murderous delight. “I have you,—
the tool,—and in a few minutcsI shall have
the principal," was the only remark he made
to me. I
I seemed to have waited hours, when there
was a sudden and peremptory knock at the
door. General Klapka rose and Opened it
immediately. Two members of the police
anda figure completely enveloped in a large
fur cloak stood outside. “Excellency, it was
the prisoner who knocked so loudly,” be—
gan each of: the police in a breath; but
General Klapka, motioning the prisoner to
enter, abruptly closed the door.
The room- was well lighted, and the person
who entered. walking boldly forward, drop-
ped the cloak, and Olga Orvielf stood revea'l-
ed. She was in a brilliant ball dress of pale
and shining green, and pearls gleamed softly
on her milk-white neck apd arms. She made
a profound and graceful courtesy to General
Klapka, adroitiy spreading out her rich train
as she did so. “I had not looked for the
pleasure of seeing General Klapka when only
a few moments ago I was unexpectedly-
called from Madame Zolu’s ball,” she said
with a certain grand air that she knew very
.well how t3 assume; filer: catching sight of
me, she suddenly drOpped her stately man-
ner. “You here, my friend ?” she cried ina
,tone of laughing familiarity, “Have you
been conspiring too '1’” , ,
“Mademoiselle 'Orvieif, allow ”e to clailh'
your attention first,” said General Klapka.
I looked at her to see if his infuriated pres-
ence had made any impression on her. If it
had, it was only to arouse'further her fearless
spirit. He was still nervously feeling the
edge of his sword. . “You spoke just now of
conspiring; conspiring may bring that white
neck of yours into jeopardy." said he, look-
Shc drew herself’up and arched her proud
neck. “Do you threaten .me .9” she said with
cool scorn. *
. For answer he handed her with a low how
the paper I had read : “Read that, and see if
I need to threaten.”
She raised it with an air at once careless
and coquettisb, aud,after reading a few lines,
burst out laughing. “We are found out,”
she said, turning to me, “and General Klap—
ka is vexed, I see, because I sometimes send
a tender message to my lover. ”. When she
said that, he made a spring at her which
caused me to juw from my chair; hit, in-
stead of recoiling, she advanced two, steps
toward him, as he stood before her panting
and furious. “Yes,” she said in a clear,high
voice, “to Count Loris Kourasofi.”
“Mademoiselle, I implore you—" I began.
“What would you have me do ?" she said,
turning contemptuously to me. "-If I am. in
if I am not in his power, let me say whatI
please.” v
“Yes, say what you please," said General
_ Klapka in an intense voice: “it’will only
bring your destruction a little nearer. If

his power, will anything avail me now ? and.
cowed by anything, he might be said to have
quailed under her voice and presence she
spoke distinctly, and raised her little hand as
she advanced nearer. She stopped abruptly
and fanned herself. “Reallyfi’ she said, “I
am losing my temper. You, General Klap-
ka, appear to have lost yours before I came.”
“Do you know,Mademoiselle Orvielf,what
it is to be secretly communicating with a state
prisoner ?" said General Klapka, recovering
his coolness a little. ‘
“And do you know what it is, General
Klapka, to have the discipline of the garri~
son so lax that a state prisoner can be com-
municated with, even visited, by his friends
and," laughing and nodding her head at me,
“his accomplices ?" , '
Genera! Klapka could only grind his teeth
and mutter, “Communicating with a state
prisoner.”. '
“If I could have obtained Count Konra-
solf's consent,” she continued, casting down
her eyes modestly, “I could have entered
the fortress, and with the aid of my friend,
the village priest, have actually married the
man I love, I wish I had 1" she added, sud-
denly raising her eyes and opening them
wide and bright.
If her object was to exasperate him still
further, she was succeeding admirably,whilo
he had not been able ‘to intimidate her
in the least degree. “Count Loris Konra-
soff’s life may pay for that wish," he said.
“You forget," she replied: “Count Konr-
asolf is only under arrest until his identity is
establishe .” _
"Let him be brought to trial," said he,
“and for a thousand roubles I can prove him
to be Vladimir Kourasolf. You know what
the moujiks say :' ‘Copecks can buy venge-
ance even.’ ”
' She turned slightly pale, and he seemed to
gloat ovor this her first sign of discomfiture,
when at that moment therewas a loud com-
motion in the outer apartment and a vehement
knock at the- door. “Open! open i" cried a
dozen eager voices. I C
When General Klapka opened the door,
Vladimir Kourasoff walked in. He was hag-
gard and unshorn,—a piteous contrast to the
handsome and dashing ofiicer he had once
been. “I surrender‘ myself,” said he to Gen.
Klapka. “I am Count Vladimir Konrasofi.‘
I was in Geneva, safe, when I heard of my
brother's arrest. I could not but come back.”
There was a deep pause. Vladimir continu-
ed in a collected manner: “I expected to find
my brother“ exiled at the very least,b_ut when
I heard that he was still imprisoned hero I
St. Petersburg, who brought 'the matter be-~
fore the emperor, and they have his personal
guaranty that if I surrender myself my
brother shall be immediately released.”
I confess I had nemr expected anything so
noble or magnanimous from Vladimir. ‘I sat
in speechless astonishment; General Klapka
stared stupidly at him like a man in a dream;
while Olga began to weep, clinging to Vla—
dimir.
The next morning it was all over Wilna
that Vladimir had surrendered himself, and
that a telegram had been received from St.
Petersburg ordering Count Loris to be set at
liberty, but to remain in the city on a sort of
honorable parole until the trial of the prison-
ers came olI.
A crowd of his friends and well-wishers,
and the multitude of ldlers whom such occa-
sions always collect, assembled at the prison
gates in the early afternoon to see him brought
forth. My friend the village priest and my—
self stood next the gate. '.
“There are the two who so cruelly tor-
mented Count Konrasoff during his captivi-
ty,”. began to be whispered around. Taunts
and epithets were freely bestowed upon us,
which soon changed to open-mouthed won-
der; for'when the great gates clanged wide
open, and Count Loris with uncovered head
walked slowly and gracefully forward, we,
were the first he saluted and embraced.
Vladimir escaped with a gentence of only
seven years’ exile, which, through his own
gopdconduct and his brother’s infiuence,was
considerably shortened.
Sometimes, when I behold the happiness
of the Count and Countess Konrasoff, I say
to myself with a sigh, “This ideal life might
have been mine with my adored Maria l”

A Wonderful Printing Inks.
From Turin, in sunny Italy, we have news
-not altogether reliable—of the invention
and successful use ‘of printing ink, which, if
it is as represented, will_.bankrupt the gas
companies in America in. far less time than
the electric'light can possibly accomplish
that-feat, and discount the illuminating in—
ventions of Edison and all' the rest of the
aggressive electricians. The' entirely new
and unquestionably wonderful printers’ ink
is so compounded as to become luminous, in
the dark. Book, magazines. and newspapers
printed with this ink may be easily read in.
the darkest room without any assistance
from artlcfiial light. J net as soon as the sun
light, or any other light, vanishes, this ink
beams as bright as burnished silver; so much
so that whatever is printed with it may be
read without the assistance of any .other
light. Only the printed words becomes
luminous, which is all that is required by
any reader; it is not claimed that the light-
emanatiug ink illuminates alight but the im-
mediate words which were impressed by its
agency. - '
Our information, taken from an Italian
journal, goes so far as. to say that a daily
paper is soon to be published in Turin on
which this luminous ink will be used exclu-
sively. No doubt we shall be ‘ favored with
a copy of it, and, after its receipt, will be in
in position to inform our readers whether the.
wonderful ink is all that it has been repre-
sented to be by those who babe written it up
so ardently. If really successful, it will
work a revolution in reading after dark;
students’s lamps will be relegated to back
sheds, along with stage coaches. Fifth and
sixth editions of popular novels will be print-
ed in luminous ink; enterprising business
men will, after nightfall, cause to be distrib-
uted luminous circulars; all the go-ahead
evening papersere'sure to be, printed in the
self-lighting ink. Reading in bed is going
to be as safe as perusing books in a well-
appointed library at mid—day. Political
transparencies will no longer need candles
or gas jets inside. Names of streets, figures
on watch dials, house numbers, etc., will all
alike be displayedin the wonderful luminous
ink. Of the ingredients of this astounding
compound we knew nothing, :mueh to our.
sorrow; its existence reads like a para-
graph clip'ped from the “Arabian Nights.”
Just so read the first accounts of the electric
telegraph to .our grandfathers. There may
be something in‘the luminousprinters’ ink of
Turin; if only a joke, it is a light one, even
in the dark—Printers Circular.

Mrs. Burnett’s new story, “A Fair Barba—
rian,” contains the following conversation
between certain English school girls upon
whomtho sight of an American girl has just
dawned for the first time: “Iahave not the
slightest doubt,” said Mia? Phipps, “that
when she is at home she lives in a wampum.”
“What is a wampum ?i’ asked one of the ad-
miring audience. “A tent,” replied Miss
Phipps, with some impatience, "I should
think any geese, would know that. It ins
kind of tent hung with sealps, and—and
. mocassious, and—larints, and things, of that
sort,”
Insanity is no cause for divorce in Wiscon-
sin.- The think a person must be crazy in
thefint p ”marry-
of vcxatious libel suits against well—meaning
newspapers are discovering, to their cost,
that even publishers and editors of reputable
journals have rights that judges and juries
respect. Our daily contemporary, the Press
of this city, was recently sued for libel
through its editor-in-chief, Mr. Charles E.
Smith, for stating through a reliable corres—
pondent, that Thomas H. Dawson, a resident
of Chester County, Pennsylvania, had, on the
occasion of a political procession, displayed a
Confederate flag on his premises.
Though the standard exhibited by Dawson
was an unusual one, it was not the regulation
flag of the Rebellion; consequently he saw
before him, as many others did, a golden
vision of handsome damages against anew:
paper. In Vain did the Press protest—yes,
and prove—that no malice was intended in
the publication; that the flag news 30‘ oh-
jectionable to one man was forwarded by
mail, and was passe! upon by an editor of
strong Democratic proclivities; that Mr. C.
E. Smith never so much as laid eyes upon
it until his attention was called to it in print,
Dawson was not to be deprived of the lux-
ury of a libel suit by any such predients;
and, if possible, make his paper 'pay hand-
somoly for the priVilegc. ’Finding the plain-
tiff irrevocably beat on pursuing his own
unreasonable course, Editor Smith did What
all journalists, when placed in "a similar
position, should do; he forced the case to a
speedy trial. As'tbe prosecutor resolved to
have the law, the very best thing for him to
do was to give him the fvli benefit of it with
just as little delay as, possible. After a full
hearing of the case, the jury rendered a
verdict'of not guilty as to the'cditor of the
Press, and very properly placed the costs of
the prosecution on Mr. Thos. H. Dawson.
There Can be no doubt that the charges
made by 'the. ‘laintifi in this. particular case
were absurd and frivolous, He 'did not care
to be righted if unintentionally misrepresent"
ed; he wanted damages. T at is precisely
what prompts nine-tenths of he institutcrs
of newspaper libel suits. The needed lesson
'ta’ught Mr. Dawson cannot fail but go far to
put an end to such disreputable litigation.
,Undoubtedly the public have priviliges that
journalists are bound to respect ; most of the
editors and publishers are willing to do so.
In the nature of things, they. are occasionally
betrayed into errors; when they offer to
make atonement for unintentional mistakes.
it is not fair that their willingness to make
‘ reparation shall be spurned. It was this
entirely just view of the situation that infiu
enced the wise jury of Chester County, Pa.,
in the libel suit of Dawson vs. Smith.—

Bobbing they Mails.
It is possible for a mail robber to escape
detection, but the chances are overwhelm-
ingly against such an outcome. There is no
other field of villainy that may be worked
with better prospects of success. And yet,
while every officer and employee -of the
postal service knows that the Government
will almost certainly hunt him down, we
are frequently advised by the press telegrams
that some ofiicer or employee has robbed the
mails.
From the early days of the postal service,
it . has employed the best detective talent,
and hasnever hesitated to spend money for
the detention of depredators. Confidence in
the safety of the mails is absolutely indis-
pensable, and this can only be maintained
by ferreting out and punishing those who
steal money or valuables entrusted to the
mails.
Among no class of criminals are there so
many men of previous good standing as
among the postal thieves. A good character
is required to secure any position in the ser—
vice. Most of these officials are bonded.
They must have such standing in the com-
munity as to be able to get bondsmch, and
men of property are generally very cautious
in signing such papers. '
The servibe also requires intelligence.
There is not a position in any branch of this
service that stupidity can fill. But character
and intelligence combinedare not a guaran-
tee against the foolish crime'of robbing the
mails—foolish to the last degree, because
there can be no hour of peace or rest to any
.man who has committed it, for he must know
that the avenger is on his ,tmk, that all the
resources of the department are directed to
.the business of finding out his sin and drag-
ging him to infamy.

Sick Headache.
This complaint is the result of eating too
much and exercising too little. Nine times
in ten the cause is in the fact that the stom-
ach was not able to digest the food last in-
troduced into it, either from its having been
unsuitable, or excessive in quantity. A diet
of bread and butter, with ripe fruit or berries
with moderate and continuous exercise in the
open air sufiicient to keep up a gentle per-
spiration,- would cure almost every case in a
short time. Two teaspoonfuls of powdered
charcoal in half a glass of water, anddrunk,
often gives instant relief. ‘Sick headache
with some persons comes on at regular inter-
vals, and is the signal of distress which'the
stomach puts out to inform us that there is
an overalkalinc condition of its fluids; that it
needs a natural acid to restore the battery to
its normal working condition. When the
first symptoms. of headache appear, take a
tablespoonful of lemon juice clear, fifteen
minutes before each meal, and the same dose
at bedtime. Follow this up until all symp-
toms are passed, taking no other remedies,
and you will soon be able to go free from
this unwelcome nuisance. Many will object
to this because the remedy is too simple ; but
many cures have been effected in this way.

following isa good formula for the simple
but delicious preparation: Cut ten or twelve
cold-boiled potatoes‘into slices from a quar-

salad bowl with'four tablespoons of tarragon
or plain vinegar, six ‘tablespoonfuls of best
salad oil, one teaspoonful of minced parsley,
and pepper and salt to taste; stir well, that
all be thoroughly mixed. It should be made
two or three hours before_ needed on the
table. Anchovies, olives or any pickles may
be added to this salad, as also bits of cold
beef, chicken or turkey, if desired; but it is
excellent without these.

I, walking. the familiar street
While a crammed horse-car tickled through
it, , ' 1
Was lifted from my prosy feet
And in-Arcadia erc I knew it.
Fresh award for‘gravel'soothed my tread,
And shepherds’ pipes my ear delighted;
The riddle may be lightly read:
I met two lovers newly plighted.
They murmured by‘in happy care,
New plans for paradise devising.
J cat as the moon with pensive stare
Oler Mistress Craigie’s pines was rising.
Astarte, known nightlii‘eeiécore years,
Me to no speechless rapture urges;
. Them in Elysium she’ensphefes,
Queen, from" of old. of thaumaturges.
The railings put forth bud and bloom,
The house fronts all with myrtles twine
them,
And light-winged Loves in every room
Make nests, and then with kisses line them.
0 sweetness of untasted life!
0 dreams, its own supreme fulfilment! I
0 hours with all illusion rife,
As ere the heart divined whabill meant!
“Et ego,” sighed I to myself,
And strove some vain regrets tobridle.
“Though now laid dusty on the shelf,
Was hero once of such an i'dyl !
An idyl ever newly sweet,
Although since Adam’s day recited,
Whose measures time them to Love’s feet, -
Whose sense is'very ill requited.
Maiden, if I may counsel, drain
Each drop of this enchanted season,
For even our honeymoons must wane,
Convicted of green cheese by Reason.
Andnone will seem so safe from change,
Nor .in such skies benignant hover,
As this, beneath whose witchery strange
You tread on rose 'leaves with your lover.
The glass unfilled all tastes can fit,
As round its brim Conjecture dances,
For not Mephisto’s self hath wit
To draw such vintages as Fancy's
When our pulse beats its minor key,
When play-time halves and school-time
doubles, _
Age fills the cup with serious tea
Which one Dame Clicqnot starred with
. bubbles.
“Fie, Mr. Lowell is this wise?
Is this the mortal of a poet,
Who, when the plant of Eden dies,
Is privileged once more to sow it ?
That herb of clay-disdaining root,
From stars secreting what it feeds on,
Is burnt-out passion slag and soot
Fit ,soil to sow its dainty seeds on ?
Pray why, if in Arcadia once,
Need one so soon forget the way there ?
Or why, once there, be such a dance
As not contentedly to stay there ?”
Dear child, ’tis but a sorry jest,
And from my heart I hate the cynic.
Who makes the Book of Life a nest
For comments stale? than rabbinic,
It Love his simple spell but keep,
Life with ideal eyes to flatter,
The Grail itself was crockery cheap
To Everyday’s communion platter.
One Darby is'to me well known
Who, as the hearth between blazes
Sees the old moonlight shine on Joan
And float her youthward in its hazes,
He rubs his spectacles, he stares—
. ’Tis the same face that witched him early?
He feels for his remaining hairs— ‘
Is this a_ fleece that feels so curly?
“Good heavens! but now ’tis winter gray,
And I of years had more than plenty;
The almanac’s a fool! ’Tis May!
Hang family Bibles! I am twenty l
Come, Joan, your arm; ,we’ll whlk the
room-
The lane, I'mean—do you remember 7
How confident the roses bloom,
As if it ne’er could be December-l.
No more it shall, while in your eyes
My heart its summer heat recovers,
And you, howe’er your mirror lies,
Find your old beauty in your lover’s."

MY CASHMEBE SHAWL-
With the icicles pendulous-from the elves,
And splinters of snow inth tingling lit.
And the sorrowful rustle of lining loom
Aloft in the tree tops brown and bare,
I wrap myself close in my Cashmere shawl,
And sink in my seat, when. 10! away
I am whirled from the realm where snow-
flakes fall
To the beautiful vales of far Cathay.
I breathe, as I fold it about my breast,
The mystical ether of eastern skies,
And I see in a dreamlike way the crest
‘ 0f the white Himalayas as they rise
Beyond, in a marvel of glare and gloom,
The hovel: they shadow beneath their
_ frown,
Where the women so toilingly tend-the loom,
From the dawn’s first flash till the sun goes
down;
I think as 1 study the mellow tone,
And the marvelous harmonies here in-
wrought
(Like a hill-side forest when frost has thrown
Above it a spell from the rainbow caught),
0f the opulent fancy that could combine
With shimmer of 'Cashmere’s dew,
In infinite tint and form and line.
L These palm leaves richer than ever grow.
A
ud yet with an instinct rare that weaves
Such colors as make the world despair,
The life at the looms beneath these eaves
Is somber and narrow and dull with care.
All loveliness, splendor, grace and skill,
All hints out of nature's store, have been
Absorbed by the pitiless web, until
Each thread of the tenure is woven in.
Not a tinge of the beauty is kept to hrow
O’er the lives wrought into this braided
square;
My part is the pleasure, the warmth, the
glow; .
Their part is penury, toil, and care.
So I find as I lean at my carriage pane,
Unconsciously watching the snow-flakes ,
fall, .
That something besides its warmth has lain
Wrapped up in the folds of my Cashmere
shawl. —Harper’a Basar.
