Nuggets' of Pure Poesy.
—___'
Grandmother's knitting has lost its charm;
Unheeded it lies in her ample lap,
While the sunset's crimson. soft and warm,
Touches the frills of her snowy cap.
She is gazing on two beside the bars,
Under the maple—who little care .
. For the growing dusk, or the rising stars,
Or the blot bf frost in theautumn air.
One is a slender slip of a girl
' And one a man in the pride of youth—
The maiden pure as the purest pearl,
The lover strong in his steadfast truth.
Sweet, my own, as a rose of June,"
‘ He says full low. o'er the golden head,
it would scuud to her like a dear old tune.
Could grandmother hear the soft words said.
For it seems but a little while ago
Since under the maple, beside the bars,
She stood a girl, while the sunset’s glow,
Melted away ’mid the evening stars.
And little you dream how fond a prayer
Goes up to Godihrough his silver stars,
From the aged w'o'man gazing there,
For the two who linger beside the bars.
A Receipt in Full.
The tins had all been secured until
she could see her face, 0r-g1'otesquo
caricatures of' her' face, in each and
every one of them; the window-panes
polished until they sparkled in the
bright June sunshine; the silver bur-
nished until neither spot 1101' speck
marred its mild lustre, the loaves of
bread baked until each crispy crust
took 01': the right shade of tempting
brown; "and Molly was scrubbing the
only unscrubbe‘d corner. of the kitchen
-—when Miss Cameron’ sdeep, bar sh voice
came from the dining—room:
“Mary, are you not through yet ?"
“ Almost ma' am," answered Molly.
“I think' itis time you you quite,"
declared the voice. "You must make
haste. We are going to the lecture
this'eveniug, Miss Georgette and I,
and as Mr. Malcom also wishes to go
out, we will be obliged to lock up the
house. Therefore it is necessary that
you should leaVe as soon as you possibly
can.
“Yes, ma ’am,” said Molly, meekly,
and finished, lier scrubbing, with her
tears falling very fast and thick.
Poor little girl! she had tried so hard
to please her mistress—for Miss Georg-
ette was but a reflection to her elder
sister—and her efforts had been met
with a grim silence that betokened a.
begrudged satisfaction, until the last
few weeks, that is, in fact, until Mr.
GeoIge Malcom came there. Mr. Mal-
com wasa sort of step-brother to the
Misses Cameron, (his father, a widower
with two boys, had mariied their
mother, d‘widow with two ghls,) and
they inheriting nothing in the way of
property from their own father, he gen.
erously made theman allowance from
the moderate fortune made by his.
Generously and forgivingly—for they
had not rendered a tithe of respect, to
say nothing of affection, which was his
due, to their indulgent and kind-hedrted
step-father, choosing to look upon
their mother’s second marriage as an
insult to the memory of the parent
whose not-at-all-amiable characteristics
I:md- been his only legacy to them. .
The cottage in which they lived,
situated' 1n the prettiest part of Meadow-
ville (the furniture there being their
own, the bequest ofa maternal grand-
mother). belonged to Mr. George; and
here'hehad-vcomerirsearch of solitude
and quiet. for the flrsttime in twelve
years or more, to spend a month 01' two
in thinking out and arranging plans for
V starting a large building in a neighbor-
_ ing city. And, as I have already in-
timated, thingshad changed much for
' the worse for Molly, the servant-maid,
since his arrival. The hidden silence
had place to most open fault finding,
when Mr. Malcom was not within hear-
Iing. . The coffee was too strong, the tea
too weak, the chickens undone, the
steaks burned, the eggs boiled too'hard,
the rooms badly swept. the shirts poorly
ironed; and all ihesecomplaints, with
many more, the elder spinster, confirm-.
ed by the younger, gave her to under-‘
stand originated with the guest.
“Whitah’ard man to please he must
be i" Molly said to herself many times.
“And yet he has one of the hundsomest
and kindedt faces I ever saw; and he
spoke right pleasantly to me the first
day he came, and even offered me his
hand (how Miss Cameron blushed);
but I pretended not to see it, for I knew
it was not my place to shake hands with
him. It is strange he should become so
fractious. He was so good and merry
and kind when I was a little girl, I’d,
heard father often say he’d rather shoe
a horse for him than for any one else in
the village.”
And when she would fall to thinking
how grand he looked at her childish
eyes when he came riding up on his
bare more to the smithy, where she
spent half her time watching her father
at the forge. And he always brougl_1_t
her a gay picture-book, or a pretty-
ribbon, or a box of candies, or a bright
new silver piece—one Christmas it was
a gold one—and claimed a kiss (good
gracious! how her cheeks flushed at the
rememberancc!) for payment when he‘
rode away again. How hapPY. how
very happy, she had been then,‘ with
that dear father and dear old Aunt
Nanny! sohappIy that she had scarcely
ever felt the loss of her mother who
haddied ingiving her birth. But when
Molly was fifteen, the‘blacksmith, so
strong and ruddy that it seemed im-
possible pain or sickness could ever
come near him, fell sick, and after lin-
gering, sorely crippled, and for nearly
two years, died, leaving nothing to his
darling but hard 1. 01k Ye e,s there was
one alternative, to become, Mrs. Jake
. Willow, and mistress of the forge
again; but Jake was a. rough, vulgar
fellow, and Molly, inheriting the deli-
cate tastes 'and gentle ways of her
mother, who had Iieen a shy, pretty
young governess before she married
the handsome {blacksmith shrank from
the loud voice and rude laughtor, of
her would-be husband. And so, in
preference to accepting Jake's offer,
she became—Heaven knows this was
a hard enough thing to be—maid-of-all-
work in the cottage of the Misses Cam-
eron. Poor littlea Molly! prettier than
many a princess, with lovely, black-
fringed grdy eyes, and hair of the very
darkest brown—hair that would curl' 1n
spite of hér, to Miss Cameron's great
displeasure. ‘
"If I had such untidy bah", ’ that lady
would often declare, glancing approving-
ly into the mirror at the flat dyed bands
that made a triangle of her high, narrow
forehead “I’d shave my head ;” and
“We’d certainly shave our hea
would echo Miss Georgette.
The kitchen floor finished, the rugs
shaken and returned to their places, the
bread put awayin the big stone jar in
the cup-board, Molly sought 'her ow.n
room (which, to tell the truth, was no
room at all, but a corner of the garret
rudely partitioned oil, with onlya small
skylight to admit light and air—there
were roams, empty, unus 2d rooms in the .
. attic, but “they were much too good for
a servant," Miss Cameron said; and
“very much too good for a servant, "
agreed her sister) ‘to make ready for her
flitting." Molly looked around it as she
tied her straw hat over her rebellious

tresses,'aml again the tears ‘filled' her
eyes. It had been a place of rest and a
shelter, and she had been glad to have
it, fearing to leave it lest worse luck lay
beyond
And she would not have been com-
polled to leave it had it not been for that
unfortunate mirror, and tho inceasing
complaints of the old bachelor! Why,
he could not be so very old, after all,
for he was but twenty-one and she be:
ttveen five and six whenhe gave her
ribbons rind books and silver pieces, and
she gave him kisses.
\ But the sound of closing shutters
broke in on . hcr‘ reverie and reminded
her-that her"5 departure waswaited for-
and taking her bundle. in her hand, she
ran quickly down stairs to the parlor,
where the .maiden ladies sat erect and
stem, their bonnets in readiness for the
lecture.
“I'm going 110w said Molly, standing
in the doorway, her sweet, pathetic face,
with its pleasing gray eyes and quiver-
ing lipsin no way touching what her
mistresses were pleased to call their
hearts. "Good -by n1aa'1n.Good-by,
Miss Georgette." . .
But the only reply was,—
“Bear in mind that you are still in-
debted to us eight and twenty dollars.
If, however, you'Vshould prefer to pur-
chases. mirror- ycurseif in place of the
one broken by you, we will consent to
receiveit, provided it is in every way as
good as the one left us by our grand-
mother; and in that case we will agree
to refund the ”eight. dollars for last
month's wages,'~whicl1 we have kept as
the first- instalment of your debt; which
is really much more than you could have
‘expected ofus.” ' .
“Oh, yes, indeed, very much n10re
than could have been expected of us,‘
- added Miss Georgette, the echo.
“For such gross carelessness—" Miss
Cameron went on.
“Indeed, ma 'am,” interrupted Molly,
her cheeks flaming and her eyes spark-
ling, “as I have told you, I never
touched it; I wasn't even near it. I was
just sweeping the other side of the par-
lor when it fell, and the cord it hung by
was all moth-eaten, and had parted just
in the middle, as I showed you at the
time."
“Should be punished, " continued
Miss Cameron, not paying the slighest
attention to the girl. “And one word
more Please to remember that we have
your signiture to an acknowledgment
that you consider yourself responsible
for the breakage.’
“ You frightened me so that I scarcely
knew what I was singing,” said Molly, "
but as I promised, I will pay you, for it
shall never be said that my father's
daughter broke her Word. "I (1 give you
the few dollars I have saved if I had not
to keep them for my own support until
I get another place. Aunt Nanny can
only shelter me, for, as you know, she
has depended almost entirely on me for
food and clothes ever since my father
died."
“Yes and a very ridiculous thing for
both of you," snapped Miss Cameron.
“ She might much better sell the but
she lives in for fuel and go to the aims-
housc, and you might much better save
y0ur wages to pay for the things you
break, for break you will to the end of
your days. I never saw a person with
such fly-away hair as yours that was not
careless an frivolous. You may go.”
‘.‘ Yes indeed, you may go," added
Miss Georgette.
And the poor child went out into the
road, homeless and aluiost friendless,
with a shadow on her fair young face
and a pain in her l1ea1't,but she had
only turned into the lone that led to old
Nanny's cottage when some one came
quickly to her side and said in a kindly-
voice, “Molly, poor little Molly!" and
there was Mr. Malcolm. And Molly in
her grief thinking only of him ashc'
early friend. who- had known her as the
darling of the kindest of fathers, flung
her bundle down and _'bu1st into passion-
ate tears
“They were hard on me, your sisters,
Mr. Malcolm," she sobbed, “ very
hard on me. -I- did my best for them.
I worked—and I am not very strong,
though I am a blacksmith’ .5 daughter—-
from morning till night, but could not
please them. And it was not my fault
about the minor. It was not, it was not,
it was not. Though: Miss Cameron
insists that I stopped sweeping to
admire my curly lidir—I can’t help its
curling; I did everything to make it
straight; I tied it back so tight that my
head achcdwand knocked it with a
broom. She was alittle better before
y011|ca1nc;but after you came and com-
plained so much about thetco and coffee
and—everythi11g—"
“I complain. "’ exclaimed her listener,
breaking in upon her rather confused
narration of her wrongs. “Why,_I
never complained of anything. How
could I? there was nothing to com-
plain of. ” '
' “She said you did. ButI beg par-
don sir," suddenly remembering the
difference between
time and the present. “She is your
sister, and—my troubles are nothing to
you."
“She' 1s my sister an extremely long
wayofl', "hereplicd, gravely; “and your
troubles are a great deal to me; and,
furthermore, I see a pleasant way out
of them. Let me walk with you to your . .
candy-Vand-kissos '
aunt's, and there, with her advice, we'
will talk the matter over."
“Oh, it is such a poor place-Mr.
Malcom. Miss Cameron called it a
but, and said it was only fit for fuel. " '
“I've been in much poorer places,
Molly," said he,IaI1'1d picking up her
bundle he walked with her to the
cottage.
Two Weeks passed by. A drudge
from the work-house, whose chief—in
fact, whose sole— recommendation was
“no wages," had taken Mollie' s place in
the Cameron' s kitchen. Mr. MalColm
had gone away 011 business directly
after her coming, and on the night
appointed for his return, the sisters.
attired' 1n dresses of dull gray, unreliev-
ed by a bit of colonel: sat—everythiag' 1n
the house being in heart-chilling, dread-
ful, stony order, one at each- parloi
window, awaiflng his an ival.
’ “He mustbe coming; I think I, hear
wheels," said theclder lady.
“Wheels,” repeated her sister.
And “wheels, " they were, but not the
wheels of a carriage, but those of a
truck, on which lay a long wooden x,
stopped before the cottage door.
“A mirror for Miss Cameron,” the
driver called out as he jumped down.
”A mirror?" re'peated' the spinstcr,
unable to restrain a gesture of surprise,
And “a mirror!" said Miss Georgette,
' - with another gesture of surprise. . .
"Yes, ma‘ am; .'Ifrom Willards, New
York. Where 1s it to be taken 9"
"First unpack it out here,” commen-
ded the lady, recovering her ‘self-‘p'os~
session. ”Ican’t have the house littered
up and disordered with splinters and
shavings."
“N0 indeed," chime! in Miss Camer-
on also recovering her se ‘f-posession.
“Splinters and shavings 1”

side and the mirror. taken from it proved
it to be better and imndsomer in every
respect than that it had been sent to re-
place.
“I've brought wire ‘tc bring it W110,
said the man, as lid carried it into the
house; “so thereli be no danger from
moths this time. " - . " '
"Mothsl" said Miss Cameircn, glaring
at him. And' “Moths!” said Miss
Cameron, glaring sfwbgiey '1‘
They both Continued to glare, as
though called upcn t0 superintend a
piece of Work highly reptgnant to
their feelings, until the mirrorwas hung
the truck.
' -" 'Of course George sent it, " said
Miss Cameron, when the man had
driven away. "But Mary Brown must
pay- for1 the other all the s'ame.’ Our
having this makes no difference in re
gard to the agreement to her.’ .
“No difference in regard to the
agreement with her," assented Miss~
Georgettkwhen who should walk
in, in a gray silk walking dress, a
and another one in her belt, and the
most coqnettish hat, adorned with more
crimson flovvers, but Molly '.herself '
“Goodevening, ” she said, smilingly,
‘ “I have inlled‘for a receipt 1n full. "
"A receipt in full! And for “but,
"you t the money? echoed her
other w 0111 mistress. ‘
“No, Iliave not brought the money, '.'
answeredMolly; ' f‘but I have sent you
a mirror that more than answers your
requiremen ‘ .
“You!" from both sisters at once.
And again, 101' the second time 10 one
short hour they were guilty of being
surprised, and letting their surprise be
seen. '
“Yes, I. I have the bill with me
. rweipt in full. if you please. .
Miss Cameron arose, walked in a
stately manner—Molly following her—-
to her desk in the dining-1' o'om, seated

“Stop a moment, ” said Molly,- “my

“And what may it be 2" said Miss Cam-

tempt.
V “I’ll answer that question," said Mr.
Malco'in, suddenly appearing,
passing his arm around the slender
graysilk waist, the1eby crushing the
bunch of roses at the natty belt-"Mrs.
Cecige Malcolm."
The pen fell from Miss Cameron' :1
hand, and for the first time in her life
that estimable woman went into hysterics
whither her equally estimable sister
immediatly followed her.
And Molly, taking her leave at that
moment, never received any 1'.eceipt or

HONORS TO THE DEAD IN CHINA.
When a man dies, the first care of his
friendsis to place at the door of the house
a cup of cold water, a custom for which
no satisfactory reason is assigned. Then
a suit of really good clothes must be
burned. together with most of the dead
man’s wardrobe—his boots and Shoes,
bed and bedding, opium pipe, horses,
houses, sedan chair, and any other
possessions which he is likely . to
care to have with him, for he will require
all these things in the spirit world, and
his reception there will be considerably
better if he arrives well clothed than it
would he should he appear in beggarly
want. It is considered that genuine
n'i'ticles should be sacrificed for his origi-
' nal outfit, though paper representations
are equally efficacious later. For the
same reason it is most important that all
funeral arrangementsshould be the very
best that can be prOcured ; and the sur-
vivors often impoverish themselves for
years to provide what is considered a
decent burial. The corpse must be. ar-
rayed" in new clothes witha c.1p and satin
boots, (such a dress as the deceased
Would have hired for the day had he
been going to a la ist. ) The ccfiln, too,
must be handsome and expensive. This,
however, is so very important that
persons who can posubly afford it pur-
cb'ase their coffins during their life; and-
the most acceptable gift which a dutiful
son can offer to his parents is a fine
solid set of “lougcvity boa1',ds " that
they may have the satisfaction of super-
intending the making and varn: shing
of their own coffins! In l-ke' manner

THE. WORD 1101'001'1‘1110.
The word has lately been coined. but
by whom it is difiicult to trace. That
it will find. its way into the dictionaries
of the future as a legitimate word we
have little doubt. The expression
. “ bchctting" has already become his-
toric. Its origin was as follows. A
-‘ Captain Boycott was the agent of a land
Owner in Ireland. 1 His policy proved
'to be distasteful and ofi‘enSive to. the
tenants, and such was their feeling "in
the matter that they asked the landlord
to remove him. This the landed pro-
prietor declined to do, and in return the
tenants and their friends refused to work
for or under Boycott. They would not
harvest his crops, and they made an
agreement among themselveq that none
of their 01' theirs should assist or work-
for him in the harvest. His crops were
endangered, when roliefarrivcd in the
persons. of certain Ulster men, who,
under the protection of the troops. har-
vested the crops of Boycott. The
defensive league of the ienantry were
much more powerful and effective than
might be guessed by the single instance
of combination referred to above. The
ramifications of their compact w ere 1e1 y
numerous and extensive. For example,
it was decided that if anyone had any
dealing with Boycott, 01' those' who
represented him, then no one was to have
any dealings with that per son. If a
man worked for Boycott he was to be
looked on by his‘ old neighbors and
friends as a total stranger ; no one was
to sell ‘toor buy of him ; no one was to
know him. The effect of this agree-
ment, when carried to its ext1e1ne limit.
was just what its huthcr proposed. And
“boycotting " has beeo ne :1 very f01c1-
ble phrase. The system has been
sought to be introduced into the United
States, but with partial success only. It
may have been justifiable in the case of
' B0yc0tt'; but, to say the least, it is any-
thing but unhonorablc means of gaining
redress for alleged wrongs.

MONKEY 511134113.
There are no animals about which so

all the 'tricks and 11m- ilities of the ani-

his correspondent tlnit he had shipped
one hundred and seventy- -t11ree_ varieties
of monkeys, but could procure no more,
was probably thinking of their many
blunders and tricks when he himself
committed the blunder that cost him
so dear, Most of the stories are based
on the monkey’s power of imitation. A
Spanish mule driver once invested his
scant earnings in purchasing a number
of red caps which form the crown of the
turban wornjn Turkey and Alice, and
set out to make his for tune 1n the interi-

the heat of the day came on lay down to
sleep beneath a’ tree m a wood. Taking
05 his bet he opened his valise, and,
putting one red cap; was soon asleep.
When the sun was low in the horizon he
awoke, and to his horror saw the trees
filledwith monkeys 111 red caps They
‘ had seen the Spaniard put at the red
cap before going to sleep, and followed

all the gesticulations peculiar to his
country, ‘Icursed his hard fate, stamped
his fact in anger, and tore off his gap

blessed and unexpected result, all the
monkeys followed his example. He
picked up his caps and moved on

ONE OF QUEEN BESS’S SUITOBS.
In the days of Ivan the Terrible, whose
frightful atrocities suggest the charitable
idea that he must have been mad, and of
Queen Elizabeth, there was a great ten-
dency to draw close bonds between England
and Russia. England wanted the monopoly
of the Russian trade, and Russia wanted the
alliance of a great maritime power. The
HakluytSociety takes up the narratives
where Hakluyt leaves of, supplementing
their information;and has disinterred various
State papers and curious biographies. One
Horsey was acierk in the service of the
Russian Company in Russia, and Ivan em.
ployed him as an agé'nt to proceed to Eng.
land. He wanted to marry an English
lady, and he even aspired to the great Eliz-
abeth herself. It was resolved that the
Lady Mary Hastings, the Queen’s own
niece, might probably prove a suitable
match for the Czar. It was quite true that
V the Czar labored under the trifling disad-
vantage of being married already, but he
hastened to explain that his wife was not of
royal birth, and Was entirely prepared to
repudiate her. ' Mary got the nick-
name among her friends of Empress of
Muscovie.- 0n the whole, however, she
was not satisfied with. “the tricks and man-
ners" of her imperial admirer. She per.
waded-Queen Elizabeth to allow her to de-
cline the dangerous honor. Ivan got in a.
terrible passion" behaus‘e Queen Elizabeth
.did not meet his Wishes. . He entirely lost
any good manners which he might have
been supposed to palaces, and told the An:-
bassador “that he did‘not reckon the Queen
,of England to be his fellow, for there are
that are her betters.” The Ambassador
manfully answered that “the Queen, his
mistress, was as great a Prince as ever was
in Christendom, equal to him that thought
himself the greatest; well able todefend
herself against his malice whosoever."—

Says the St. Louis Republican: " "The
nose is simply ‘a piece of cartilige,”
said a good surgeon yesterday, "and'
its shape changccl with ease. IA clever
Frenchman, some years ago, invented
a machine for that purpose and has
made a fortune by it, so many people
are troubled with noses whose shapes
do not please their owners‘ frlends. The
machine consisted ofa small slu-l‘, in
two parts, hinged togethe1.]t is made of
iron, japanned or enameled. It is in
shape inside that of 1). perfect modled
nose, according to the type of the
features of the wearer. Thus you can
obtain a Roman, Grecian, 1etr0ussee,
aquiline, or any other shape you desire.
To apply the instrument the nose is-
first bathed' 1n warm water at bedtime,
and thoroughly heated and softened.
Then it is greasedeith oiiveoil, glycer-
ine, vasoliue or other 0in substances.
Finally the nose improver is fixed on
and the sides clasped togethe1, and the
wearer keeps it on all night, taking care
in the morning to wash it 1n cold water
only. It is a rather painful process at
first but after two 01' three applications
of the improver there is no trouble.
In about a month the nose begins
to take its new shape,. and at the
end of from eight to ten weeks
Weeks the alteration is said tobe per-
fect and permanent—this is, until the
patient beauties tired of that peculiar
shape, and isdesirbus of having another
when the same operation with another
instrument is‘ necessitated. I have
known people change there noses foul

waya man cOuld change the' style of
ins nose ashe changed the cut of his

arrived at ‘10 A.M., after the day's im-
pression of the paper had been published
and the editors and compositcrs had
left the office. ‘It was important that
the speech should be published at once,
and Mr. “Taitcr immedintly'set to work
upon it. He first translated the doom

he took his place at the type case and
set it up. To the amazement of the’
of the staff who dropped in about noon,
he “found Mr. Walter. M. P. for Berks,
working in his shirt-sleeves. " The
speech was. set and printed, and the
second edition was in the city by one
o’clock. , Had he not “turned to as he
did, the 'whole expense of the express

The qualities of the plant seem to have
