A DaIecarlain Love Story.

young farmer loved, at the same time two
young women, and, though strange enough, loved
both with as nearly as possible the same affection
and they both ofthem warmly returned his passion.
But one Of them showed for him an almost bound
less devotion and perhaps this might be the cause
that at once, with more determined sentiment he
turned towards the other but she answered him.
II will not be married amid the signs Of any unhsp-
py one, aud il is now thy duty to wed Kirstin To
me thou wilt remain DEAR but now we must
part"
What field would there have been for the French
romantic What agony, rawlings, explosions,
and exPlications without end Here had been
sacrifices and poisonings, and at last three corpses
But how simply did the genius Of the Dial people
resolve this knotty point The young man obey
ed the exhortations Of the serious damsel, obeyed
that Of duty he married Kirstin and, as they
were both good and excellent people they lived
happy together.
They had lived happily together for four years,
and had three children, when the wife died. But
as she lay her deathbed she said to her husband
" would ask one thing Of thee, and that is, that
thou. after my death, wilt marry Anna, who was
once, and is still, dear to thee, and who know
still loves thee, and that thou makest no other the
mother ofmy children"
The husband mourned sincerely the loss of his
wife but, when thy customary period of mourning
had expired, il not difficult for him to endeavor
10 iuhl her last prayer. He went to the still I'M
married, the still beloved Anna, and told her the
wish Of his late wife and his own. -,f
Thou art still as dear to me formerly" said
she, land willingly would be thy wife, but fear
for thy children. l fear that / could not be to
them such a mother, that could not answer it to
my conscience and to the dead, and that would
make thee dissatisfied with me-"
And By that reply Anna stood fast spite Of all
arguments Of love and reason that were employed
10 move her. Quite distracted came the young man
one day to me, and mplored my counsel, and beg
ged me to talk with the girl, and to endeavor 10
persuade her to become his wife.
"To seek to persuade her | cannot promise
thee" ] said, "for in so solemn an affair woman
should make resolve in freedom but speak TO
her will, and tell her what think, and advise in
the matter"
sent for the young woman, talked with her OF
future duties. and succeeded in pacfying her all
too sensitive conscience. Soon afterwards had
the pleasure Of uniting the two lovers A few years
afterwards came on official journey 10 the dis

Husband and wife arose TO meet the enterer, but
when they recognized me again they became deep
ly moved and began to weep.
ASK her. ask her" said the husband, and point
ed TO his wife, whether she be not satisfied with
me-" But did not ask her--I saw warm and
happy tears already speaking. -Frederika Bremen

THE SEASONS.

Cherries winter is close upon us-ihe Indian Summer
bright and beautiful has BEEN departing, and dreaTy
desolaton is visible around There may be fonnd some
solitary autumn leaves cngng the barred branches, bu
their very loneliness suggests melancholy reflections which
child of song has thus sung desPOndingly -
Lone trembling one
Last Of summers race, withered and scar,
And shivering- wherefore art thou lingering here
Thy work is done
Thou hast seen all
The summer flowers reposing in their tomb
And the green leaves that knew thee in their bloom
Wither and fall ...l.a
why dost thou cling
Fondly to the rough and apless tree
Has then existence aught like charm for thee.
Thou faded thing
The voice of Spring,
Which woke thee into being, ne'er again
Will greet thee-nor the gentle summer rain
New verdure bring
The zephyr's breath
No more will wake for thee its melody;
But the lone signing of the blast shall be
The hymn of death.
Yeta few days,
Afew faint struggles with the autumn storm,
And the strained eye TO catch thy trembling form
In vain may gaze
Pale autumn leaf
Thou art an emblem of mans mortality
The broken heart, once young and fresh like Thee
withered by grief,
Whose hopes fled,
Whose loved ones all have dropped and died away,
Sill clinrs to llfe-and lingering, love 10 stay
About the dead
But list !-e'en now
hear the gathering of the autumn blast
1t comes-thy fra form trembles-it is past
And thou art low

ARec0tote of the late Benjamin Russell The
worthy Editor OF the Columbian Centinel was
always model Of enterprise and industry. For
years after he commenced the publication Of that
paper, he not only acted the sole editor, and
reporter, but also worked considerably at case
in setting type, and performed goodly share of
the prcss-work 1t is related of him, that once
having published an article which was considered
personal and highly offensive, by certain indi-
yidual of high standing in the community, the
aggrieSed person visited the unfortunate printer,
armed with cowskin, and fully determined to
give him sound threshing. According TO the
custom Of the time, he was arrayed in white kerr
seymere small clothes white silk stockings, and
white vest Mr. Russell was at the time busiIy
engaged with his coat of and shirt sleeves rolled
up, in handling the press balls for distributing
mk--roHtrs were not known in those days-aud
his establishment may be ensily imagined when he
saw a well dressed gentleman enter the Office
abruptly. in towering passion. and aim blow at
him with cowskin The printer ironted his
antagonist and very naturally made pass at him
with his press balls which took eject, one on his
snowy vest, and the other his left cheek and
forehead Another blow with the cowskin-an-
other thrust with the balls-whch served admira-
bly, well the purpose of both sword aud shield.
Ia few minutes the advocate of Lynch law,
who, when he entered The Office, looked as neat
and trim as il he had Just been taken from band
box, was covered with ink-printer's nk-black
and oily, from head TO foot, his hat was knocked
of in the meee-his gay costume into suit of
mourning, and his face was as black and glossy as
native citizen of 1ombuctoo He soon found
he was playing losing game, and beat retreat,
followed by the printer who got his hand in, and
gave his assailant last furious push between his

Metallic Resources Of the United States.

Iron is the most abundant metallic mineral our
country affords It's value is ten times the value OF
the gold and silver and one half the value Of all the
metals produced in the United States. Iron is found
in eUery State in the Union.
The most valuable mine is one in Salisbury, Ct,
which yields 5000 tons annually. The mines in
Duchess and Columbia counties, in the State Of
New York, produce annually 10000 tons of ore
Essex county 1900 tons; Clinton 3O00 Franklin
600; ST. Lawrence 1000 amounting in value to
more than 100000. The value of iron produced
in the United States in 1885 was IS, 100000; in
1887, S7,000,000. In Ohio twelve hundred square
miles are underlaid with iron. A region explored
in 1888 would yield 5000 900 tons Of pig iron, SO
that this district would contain $50 600 900 tons
BY taking from the region 100000 tons annually
Ia larger quantity than England produced previous
TO $780, it would last 500 years as long dis
lance, certainly, as any man looks ahead The
States of Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Illinois,
Maryland and Virginia, possess inexhaustible guam
titles Of iron ore. In Tennessee 100000 tons are
annually manufactured. notwithstanding our great
iron resources, more than half Of our cutlery,
hard ware, railroad iron, &C., is still imported from
Great Britain. r
It is supposed by biologists that the weekly sup
ply of gold from our own mines will yet be more
profitable than the mines Of Brazil or Columbia.

Coon LoeIc-We are exceedingly well pleased
with the reasoning of one of the persons who took
part in the following colloquy. We hope our bor-
rowing patrons will read and profit by il.
"Piedse TO stop my paper r. 81 am going TO stop
my paper" said misery subscriber to the ----
to one of his neighbours, 81 can't afford to take it,"
"Whai is the price Of it per yearl' asked the
other. saas
s'Two dollars" was the reply l 7a
Sand can't you afford 81 year Think Of it,
only 50 year A year is long time. Perhaps
YOU have very few to spend on earth A year
whole year and only two dollars What do you
get for your money A good closely printed, use
fu sheet giving you the news of the week, and
large amount of miscellaneous reading-philosoph
cal and grave, light and humorous. And you can't
afford SO for such sheet for whole year. ,...,
"Well declare neighbor, you talk like an ex-
perenced man. / never thought of it just in this
light before. 1t is only 81 year. And yet the
paper comes TO me every peek And love to read
IT, always find something in il that interests me;
and, moreover, on second thought perceive
that, after all good newspaper is about the cheap

for his money than he can in any other way"
"True, neighbour, and this shows that what

have been designed almost for the peculiar benefit
of the poor. No man is too poor to take news
