That Roi.
We two had a row
Over something-somehow!
We had always been rrlends, even lovers am
now;
I can't tell how it happened, or what started
it first,
There was no cloud in the sky till the thunder
' storm burst. _
Perhaps ’twas the weather-the first touch 01
fall;
Perhaps both were blue over nothing at ail,
But whatever it was-4 am forced to allow
That we two had a row,
Over something—somehow,
But what ’twas about I don’t know even now.
I called her strong minded—said she loved ts
fight.
Of course, she flashed up, and hit left and right
In a sharp ugly way, which c at to the quick.
In like manner I answered and hard words fell
thick.
Then both were sorry and ashamed of it all,
Shook hands and made up with no wish tl
recall,
111011811 ’twas ail quickly- ended ’twas a shame,
I’ll allow,
That we two had a row
Over something—somehow,
But what ’twas about I don't know even now.
Tom’s Return.
“Her father spoiled her," said Mrs.
Benner, “always.— And what she is to
do now, I am sure I do not know. She
is no more fitted to go out into the
world’and earn her own living than a
baby!" -
As Mrs. Benner uttered these dis-
agreeable truths. she looked at Hor-
tence with cold, unsympathetic eyes.
Hortense, cowering in the deep, old-
fashioned window-seat, Only answered
with tears.
Poor Hortense! She was only seven-
teen, and this great, great calamity had
overtaken her. Her father had fallen
in a fit, standing in his own counting-
house, and she was left alone and un-
provided for. There was her step-
mother, to be sure; but Hortense, like
many another silly maid, had always
kept up a sort of armed neutrality with
the good bustling woman, who had
tried her best to be kind to the mother-
less girl. She was sorry for it now,
but the time for unavailing regrets was
passed.
“I never did get along with Her-
tense," said Mrs. Benner. “She was
always defying me; she even told her
father about poor dear Tom's scrapes,
and got him sent off to the Bahama
Islands Poor. dear Tom might have
been a little wild—boys will be boys.
you know—but there never was a bit of
harm in him. And he went over there
and died; and I shall always feel as if
‘ it was Hortense that murdered him.’ ’
At these sad rctrospects she burst out
crying. Hortense crept up close to her,
and tried to take her hand.
“Mother, don’t 1" she whispered.
“Please don’t! I was only a cross,
pcttish child in those days, and Tom
teased me. I could not imagine what
dreadful mischief I was doing. Oh,
you don't know how sorry I have been
since. It's true what black Gales said,
'Luck went out of the house when Tom
went out of it.’ Oh, mother. mother!
don’t lay it up against me i"
“ There, child—there! You are
crumpling my new craps trimmings,”
said Mrs. Benner, sharply. “Poor,
dear Tom, if he were only here, we
should have some one to lean on-some
one to help us in our trouble. As it is,
goodness only knows what is to become
of us i"
‘ ‘ Couldn't we keep boarders, mother?"
hazarded Hortense. .
Mrs. Bonner snified disdainfully.
“Who would board with us?" said
she. Where would the capital come
from ?"
" I could go into a store."
“You look like it, " said Mrs. Bonner.
“Into a store, indeed! Why, you
couldn't hold out a week. You that
have never known what hardship is." '
Hortense wept afresh.
“ Oh, if I had only taken your advice
and learned to sew!” wailed she.
"Then, perhaps, I could have been
assistant to a dressmaker; or if I had
paid more attention to my French and
mathematics. But Madam Grigni said
there was no necessity for a girl who
didn't intend to become a teacher to
work so hard at her studies. Oh, dear
--oh, dear 1 what a mistake I have made
of my life i" ‘
“I should think so," said Mrs. Ben-
ner. severely. '
And she went away to interview the
auctioneer, who had arrived to cata-
logue the furniture for the approaching
sale, while Hortense dissolved into new
tears. ~
It seemed to her as if she could have
borne anything but the reproachful
memories of Tom, at this sorrow-bur-
dened moment.
Why, why had she taken such a
ridiculous and unreasonable diser to
Tom Byington, her stepmother’s son ?
He had been a handsome lad enough,
and good humored, too, in his way.
He had always manifested a hearty
desire to be friends, but she had checked
and snubbed himin every pOSsible way.
If only Tom Byingtcn were here now
how good she would be to him ! What
a help and comfort he would be!
For Tom had loved his mother dearly,
‘ and he wasa brave and manly fellow,
in spite of the boyish delinquencies
which had banished him to Nassau, in
the Bahamas.
As she sat there, thinking and crying
by turns, a step fell on the threshold.
She looked quickly up.
A gentleman stood there—tall, stater
and handsome—in a fur-trimmed oves‘
coat and a long, silky beard.
Hortense thought of the sign “To
Let " on the front door and jumped up.
“Oh, I beg your pardon i”- said she,
"but did you wishtolook at the house 1’"
“The house—no !" said the stranger,
with rather a puzzled look. “It was
Mrs. Benner that I wanted to see. It
can't be possible that you are—
Hortense ?"
“Tomi" she cried out, with a little
shriek. “But no; it can’t be. Tom
died out in the Bahama Islands.”
“ Not exactly," said the distinguished-
looking stranger, with a smile. “He
came very near it in the yellow fever
epidemic—so near, in fact, that his
name was published in the death list;
but there's a nameless individual who
always takes care of his own. AndI
made up my mind that I would not
come back until I could succeed in con-
quering my ill-luck. Well, I have suc-
ceeded. And it seems,” .with a glance
around the room, “ as if I were just in
time. Where is my mother ?"
_ Without a word, Hortense pointed to
the morning-room where Mrs. Banner
and the auctioneer were in full con clove.
But when Tom was gone she burst
into a flood of passionate tears.
“He never shook hands with me!"
she sobbod. “ He never told me he was
glad to see me 1 And he has grown so
handsome! He is likeaprincel Oh,
me—oh, me! I wish I was dead 1"
Mrs. Bonner was exultant now. Tom
Byington had come back to her, as it
were, from the dead. Tom Byingtoxi
was rich and successful. There was no
more poverty, no more trial. for her
now. Tom had turned out all that she
could possibly desire, and had brought
all his wealth to shower at her feet.
“Poor, dear Tom !" said she. “But
it don't seem possible that this is he,
does it, Hortense ? He was such a wild,
reckless fellow ; and now he is so staid,
and quiet, and grave! I -used to be
scolding him every minute," and now, if
you'll believe me, I'm a bit afraid of him
at times. What are you doing, Hor-
tense ? Why don't you listen to what I
am saying P" - '
“lam writing an advertisement for
the paper, " said Hortense, faintly.
.“Good gracious me! what for?"
“To try and obtain some sort ofa
position.”
"But, Hortense, that isn’t necessary
now,” argued her step-mother. “Tom
will provide for you. He said so him-
self, didn’t he ?"
Hortense colored a fiery red.
“ I don’t want him to provide for me i"
“I will be dependent on no man’s char.
ity, least of all Tom’s !"
“Well, I declare !" said Mrs. Bonner.
And she carried the tidings to Tom
himself, who looked grave.
“I see i” said he. “She hates me as
badly as ever. Well, I was a dreadful
pickle in the old days, but was hoping
she had forgotten all that."
, "I've no patience with her!” said
Mrs. Benuer, excitedly fanning herself.
“To quarrel with her own bread and .
butter in this sort of way. "
“ We must be gentle with her,
mother," said Tom. “She is young,
you know, and sensitive."
”Fiddlesticks !" said the stepmother.
“But it is scarcely generous'of her,"
thought Tom, “ to prolong the old fond
of our childhood into these days."
“It is cruel of him to hate and dis-
pise me still,” pondered Hortense, “and
Iwcn’t stay here, to be looked down
upon and scorned!"
Both of those silly young people made
up their minds at the one and the same
time. '
Hortense packed her little trunk, cry-
ing great salt drops into it ; Tom flung
a few necessaries into his valise, and
then came down stairs, two steps ata
time.
“ Hortense," said he, “ will you spare
me a few minutes ?" -
“Just exactly," thought Hortense,
“ like the caliph _of some Eastern coun-
try ordering his slavesaround. "
But she said :
“Oh, certainly—cf course i"
“I have been here six weeks now,"
said Tom, with courteous frigidity.
"All my mother's financial affairs are
in perfect order. I have placed to her
account in the bank a sufficient sum to
provide for all her wants and—yours.”
“I won’t touch a cent of it," flashed
out Hortense.
But Tom only frowned, and went on
in the some slow, calm way :
"And now I have one last favor to
ask of you. It is that you will break,
as gently as possible, to my mother, the
tidings that I am gone. I sail to-day.
Hortense grew deadly pale.
“ Sail 1” she gasped. “ Sail ! where 1?"
“Back to Nassau. Don’t look so
startled, Hortense. I hoped, when I
returned to remain here permanently;
but I know now that things are as bad
asever.’ You and Icannot live under
the same roof. My mother will, per-
haps, miss me a little at first, but—”
“Oh, stop, stop!" breathlessly cried
Hortense. "Am I to turn you this
second time out of your own home 1’"
“Home matters but little to me, one
way or the other," said Tom Byington
sadly. “I’m used to a Robinson Cru-
soe kind of life. Perhaps it is better
that I should return to it."
“Don't go back to Nassau, Tom," fal-
tered Hortense.
He set his handsome, well-cut lips
firmly together and slightly shrugged
his shoulders.
“ It is too late now," said he,- myvmiud
is made up. "
“Please stay, Tom !" sobbed Hor-
tense. “For your mother’s sake. ”
“It will be better for me to go back,”
said Tom, with well-feigned indiffer-
81106.
But as Hortense lifted her brimming
eyes to his, in a sort of pathetic plead-
ing, there was something in the ex-
pression of his face that sent avague
thrill through her. It was a last hope ;
but yet—yet surely it was worth trying.
“ Tom,” she whispered, hanging
down her lhead, “stay—for my sake !"
His eyes lighted up ; he made a step
forward. .
“Hortense, do you want me to re—
main here ?" he cried.
“Yes, Tom,” she murmured, almost
inaudibly.
He flung his but across the room, he
kicked his valise down stairs and clasped
Hortense in his arms.
“Then,” said he, “I'll stay."
Mrs. Bonner could not be made to
comprehend matters at all.
“They never could endure each
other,” said she, “and now they're en-
gaged to be married, and you never saw
a couple so infatuated in your life!
Of course I’m pleased, for Tom will be
contented to stay here now with me;
but I can’t, understand it in the least.
And .if I ask Tom, he says he don’t
know himself how it happened; and
Hortense declares over and over again,
‘ I love him,’ and that is all she will say.
But I do hope he’ll be happy at last-
poor, dear Tom!"
McCLELLAN'S PRESENCE OF MIND.
In 1852 McClellan accompanied Cap-
tain Marcy in the exploration of the .
sources of the Red River, which separ-
ates Texas from the Indian Territory.
When stationed in this territory a few
years after, I Was asked by an old
hunter what had become of Captain
McClellan. On my informing him that
I had not met the captain since the
Mexican war, he said: “Well, he is a
mighty plucky little man," and gave me
an account of ahunt by the two cap-
tains. They left camp together, and
separating a short distance, Captain
Marcy tried his fawn-bleat in hopes of
calling up a doe. Hearing a rustle
through the prairie grass he thought he
had been successful, but found that he
had called in another hunter, in the
shape of a panther, or, as the man
called it “a big painter, a monstrous
ugly customer," which came bounding
toward him. Marcy fired, and, the
beast rolled over, uttered a shout of
triumph, which soon called McClellan
to his side, when suddenly the “pain-
ter," which had only been stunned,
made the fact known by a sudden
attack, before Marcy had reloaded.
McClellan fired, missed and as promptly
as in the case of the Mexican, took in
the situation, clubbed his rifle, met the
animal half way, and broke both the
animal‘s head and the rifle, but bagged
the game. I heard the incident spoken
of repeatedly in that country as one
showing great activity, courage and
presence of mind. .
MAKING UNLEAVENED Banal...
There are four cities in America with
unleavened bread bakeries—New York,
New Orleans, Cincinnati and Chicago
—and in order to supply the demand
the Chicago bakery begins baking two
months before the beginning of the
Passover. It is made up into what are
called matzos. The matzos look like
the ordinary hurdtack, except that they
area foot square.- They are made of
flour and water, and contain no other
ingredient. After the flour has been
kneaded into a very stifl dough a lump
of it, containing about fifty pounds, is
placed on a great block of wood and
pressed into a thick sheet with a great
beam which is fastened to the block at
one end by an iron link and,staple.
This sheet is next placed under an iron.
roller, from which it emerges into a
long ribbon. It passes under another
roller, and another, when it is thin
enough for baking. It is then stamped
and cut into the unbaked matzos, which
are placed ouawooden tray havinga.
long handle, and deposited in an oven.
Three minutes later they are taken out,
white and crisp. From the even they
are conveyed to the packing-room,
where they are allowed to cool, after
which they are put up in leaves for
delivery. During Passover week people
of the Jewish faith eat no other bread.

THE ,MUSICAL BURGLAR.
The prince of all modern burglars was
undoubtedly the late Mr. Peace. His
proceedings, after his conviction, were
scrutinized with the most eager atten-
tion by the majority of the inhabitants
of the British Islands. They delighted
to have bulletins of his health after his
daring leap from the railway carriage,
to hear of his theological disquisitions,
which were slightly'enfecbled by cries
for a drink, and to be told how he par-
took of coffee and eggs and bacon on
the morning .of his execution. Like
other great men, he has been forgotten;
but it may be worth while to record
some of the particulars of that extra-
ordinary career. He certainly raised
burglar-1y to one of the fine arts. Peace
was endowed with an ability, 9. force of
character, an intensity of purpose, which
-in any profession would have made
him eminent and useful. He had a
wonderful taste for music and was called
the youthful Taglioni. He was fond of
natural history. He had a great taste
for mechanical construction, and once
in his life time he actually called on
Mr. Plimsoll to get his support fora
method of raising sunken ships. But
all his highest aspirations were directed
toward the noble art of burglary. He
began with what is called “portieo”
business. He learned how to swarm up
the porticoes of houses and hotels, and
he had to do this in spite of the great
physical disadvantages of being lame.
By industry and ingenuity he succeeded
in overcoming this defect. He met
with more serious discouragement
through repeated . convictions. Heywas
indeed repeatedly convicted, and earned
sentences of four years, of six years,
and of ten years' penal servitude. Never-
theless, he seems to have thought that
the business was so lucrative that he
would persevere in it, despite all risks
and misfortunes. His gains were very
large, his work being planned and con-
ducted in a very bold and systematic
manner. He always had a crucible at
hand, with which he could melt gold,
and display it in an ingot form, and
without difficulty dispose of it. He
must have had considerable acquain-
tance with receivers of stolen goods,
but though strongly pressed on the sub-
ject by the prison chaplain after his
last conviction he refused to give any
information. On many occasions he
seems to have.taken more than £300
worth of property in a night. Once he
lighted upon a safe which looked very
ml has if it contained valuables. He
was quite unable to force it open. He
went upstairs. entered the owner’s sleep-
ing room, found a key in his pocket
which looked like the key of the safe,
and which, in fact, proved to be so.
That night the booty was at least £250.
.-....
THE BAKER FAMILY.
Baker is well known as a common
surname. As a trade description, the
word has not, in some parts of York-
shire, been common until within the
few years, the reason - being
that baking has been in those-dis-
tricts mainly a domestic operation.
The cognomens “Bagstor” and “ Bax-
ter” would seem to point to the former
agency of women in professional as
well as home baking, for they answer to
"lxtkester," the feminine form of
“baker," as “spinster” is 0 “spin-
ner;" but the feminine termination
"ster" lost its distinctive meaning in
the fourteenth century, and We shall
presently find it appended to names
indicating pursuitslwhich could scarcely
have been followed by females at any
time. The word “pantry"—origillally
De la Pantcrz'e—represents the ofiicer
having charge of the bread store in
large establishments of olden times.
If there be now no calling exactly an-
swering to this, we may. by the exer-
cise of a little fancy, trace a parallel to
it in an existing one which was certain-
ly unknown when his became a ear--
name—that of the “relieving officer,”
the agent and representative of our
modern poor laws, so to speak-who
keeps the bread-room established by
statute, and opens it for the needy of
the great‘ national household. Inthe
cognominal oddity Bacchus we have
the Baker again, though in disguise.
The word refers to him as aresident
or worker at the medinaeval bakehouse:
“thus the provider of bread has assim-
ilated himself to the tutelar divinity of
wine," and we may at this point up-
propriately pass for a moment from
occupations connected with the staff of
life to those relating to what working-
men have jocularlycallec1 “life itself,”
taking that expression to stand for
alcoholic refreshment in general.

LN EMPRESS’S BIRTHPLACE.
A Granada letter in the San Francisco
Chronicle says of the house in which the
Empress Eugenie, of France, was born:-
It stands in a narrow street in the old
quarter of the Spanish .tcwn and is
singularly plain and unattractive. It
has a whitewashed front of three low
stories, which is destitute of ornament
except an ugly iron balcony and simple
green blinds at every window. The
roof is covered with the old-fashioned
Spanish tiles like those on the adobe
houses in California. These projecting
over the eaves, present a rough apology
for a cornice. How long the empress
that was to be, lived in this simple
dwelling is not now in my memory, if it
ever was there, but I believe she left
Granada in her childhood or girlhood
or something of that sort. In the wall
of the second story is inserted a tablet
on which is, out, not in the noblest
manner of the graver’s art, the following
inscription in Spanish:
. .......................... .oenuuslosuo
o
‘ In this house was born the illus- .
: trious Senora Dona Eugenia _de I
:Guzmano Portocarrero, reigning:
: empress of the French. The munl- Z
: cipality of Granada has placed this 2
: stone here in honor and remem- 2
: branoe of their noble compatriot.
' Year 1867. I
This is a rather notable commentary
on the mutability of human greatness.
The Empress was at this moment in the
height. of her fame and influence.
Three years later she was an exile,
shortly afterward a widow and now for
some years childless. The tablet pro-
mises to survive even her memory.
The empress appears not to have for-
gotten her birthplace. She has been
here once of later years, but‘not since
the death of the prince, and her name
appears on the visitors' book at the
Alhambra in a delicate hand as “Con-
desa dc Pierrefonds, 5 Mayo, 1877."
She is as rich in titles as in this world’s
goods. ‘

'ronacco AND ITS vut'roEs.
In spite of all that has been said
against it by fervid anti-tobacconists,
pure tobacco is an excellent remedial
.agent; but it must be absolutely pure.
No poisonous decoctions must out into
its substance or change its nature.
Used in a proper way, to relieve neural-
gic pains, or applied in various afi‘ec-
tions under the advice of a skilled
physician, it is a valuable medicine.
Care, however, is to be taken that the
patient is not nicotized. Tobacco also
acts, ’when pure, as among the best of
sedatives; and the Indian weed, in
spite of the diatribes against it, forms a
valuable addition to the pharmacopmia.
It has the authority of great names.
Milton solaced himself, on going to bed,
with a pipe and a glass of water. Sir
Isaac Newton smoked. Burton, in his
“Anatomy of Melancholy," pronounces
the weed “a sovereign remedy to all
diseases—a virtuous herb, if it be well
qualified, opportunely taken and medi-

RIA KING A LIST.
It is not. a wonder to anyone who
thinks about it how the Speaker is able
in a week or ten days to assign 335 men
to fifty committees without giving one
man too much or omitting to employ
somebody. The work is done so syste-
matically, however, that it is only by a
gross blunder that anybody is altogether
omitted in the distribution of places.
The Speaker begins by setting up a
chart ruled one way for fifty places,
and at right angles to those lines are
335 others corresponding to the number
of members and delegates. Asa man
is assigned a check is made in the space
over the name and a committee line
inserted. As the work progresses the
Speaker can see at a glance who has
been chosen and who is to be provided
for. When a change is made, the
checks are rubbed out and the transfer
made by more checks in other places.
While members are not supposed to ask
for places, they do it, and the expres-
sion of preference, though not quite
proper, in a strict sense, is helpful to
the Speaker in furnishing members
with congenial occupation. A certain
degree of caution is observed in reins
, ing to put men on committees when
m_ they are too seemingly concerned about
pet schemes to come before them.

Joseph Jenks. who was born in Lon-
don, but died in Lynn, Mass, in 1683,
is supposed to have been the first brass-
founder in America. On May 6, 1648,
be secured a patent from the Massachu-
setts Legislature for a water-mill and
for a saw-mill. In 1652 he made the
dies, it is said, for the silver coinage—
the “pine tree " money- of the province.
In 1654 he made a fire engine for Bos-
ton,,and in 1655 he received a patent for
an improved method of manufacturing
scythes. In 1667 he had an appropriation
for the cncom‘agement of wire drawing.

nation toward strong drinks. A grudg-

incont menial; changed his mind about
his daughter's trcusseau, and not only
provided her with a handsome one, 5
having previously refused any, but
added thereto aplcasant little dowry. 4
A married man, who had been the
victim to jealousy for a period of thirty- 3'
two years, was completely cured of this
dis-agreeable malady at the age of sixty.
The magic syrup, it will beseen, direct- 5
