arrived at home, and obtained the first prize
aquarter of an hour after, another arrived,
and gained the second prize. The following
day twelve others arrived, making fourteen in
all Of the fate of the rest, no record has
come under our notice. InSuly, 1929, anoth-
er experiment was made, in consequence of
wagers laid at Meastricht between some mer-
chants there, that pigeons taken to London
would, when let loose, return in six hours.
Forty-two pigeons were brought to London,
and after being properly marked, were thrown
up at 26 minutes past eight in the morning.
If any one of the number had arrived at Meas
tricht within six hours, the principal wager,
which was 10000 guilders, would have been
gained but in consequence, it was supposed,
of heavy rain, the first did not arrive until
6 IA hours from the time when it left London,
having, nevertheless, travelled at the rate of
45 miles an hour, assuming that the journey
was performed in straight line. The second
arrived in hours, the third in hours and 10
minutes, the fourth in 7 l-2 hours, and in four
days, more than twenty had reached Meas
tricht. 1t need hardly be added, that the dis
covery of the electric telegraph, in connection
with railway travelling, has almost entirely
superseded the use of the carrier-pigeon.
Thus, from time to time, has man reason to
admire the wonderful resources of Nature,
and feel renewed gratitude for her bounties.-

to the city-had ever had her curiosity Of city
life satisfied.
Mercy came that voice from earth or air
from flesh or spirit for it was her voice.
Some voices are so unlike all others, that,
once heard, they are never TO be forgotten
never change-and no other ever rung on the
same key.
1t was her voice, whether of earth or air,
and we looked hastily around to see whence
1t came. 1t must have come as mysteriously
as the thought of her, and the sunny scenes Of
her home came but a minute before, for there
was no one present but poor thing of misery
-one OF heaven and earth's outcasts, in hui
man form and womanly-once womanly habil-
lments-cowering ard shivering close up in
doorway, close to where there was warm
fireslde within, to try to gain a little shelter
from the cold storm without. No other living
voice was near, so it must have been a thing
of thought-a mere fancy of the night; and so
we turned again to pass on, but we said
though we said it, we thought, too low for
mortal to hear it was her voice.
1t was her voice was echoed back. That
voice again We could not be mistaken now i.
That voice came from the covering wretch in
yonder doorway. That thing of rags, and
dirt, and misery-so abect, so utterly dehu-
manized-was the fallen remains of our Au-
tumn Leaf-fallen, indeed, down from her
country home, among the tinted naples, to the
homeless condition of poor street vagrant
What brought her here
Curiosity-the desire to see the city-not to
live here, only little while, till she had seen
the thousand wonders of our busy streets-the
splendid stores of dry goods, and glistening
shops of the jeweler-the fashions and beau
ties in the street by day, the allurements OF
the playhouse by night, and the fascnations
of late suppers in the rich saloons. For these
she came to the city-she came not alone
She was fiattered by the tale of one who lived
here, and came with him, as she thought, and
as her parents thought, TO spend the winter al
his house, or rather, at his sisters house,
for he, though advancing beyond the halfway
house Of life, was bachelor,
1t was a sad mistake, thus to confde in ar
almost stranger-it was the storm that shook
the autumn leaf to the ground We need no
trace the fall-it took the usual road. Tha
sister was fallen one that home that was tC
be home, was the home of syrens that sing
the song of Death to Virtue, and that leaf O
golden, green. and crimson tints, that only
few months before had gladdened every eye
while it waved in glory upon the parent-bough
was rent from the stem, cast down, tramplet
on, and finally disowned by those who gave i
birth.
When the leaf is once down in the gutter
what hand shall pluck it up? Cleanse it ant
restore ii to its original beauty, none can ever
though it may be saved, a thing-a mement IL

a Home in the Country.

We copy the following from the Country
Gentleman. 1t contains so much sound, com
mon sense, that we wish every business man
of the city to read it s.
Hundreds of good-hearted men are toiling
severely in our large cities, wearing out their
bodies and brains in the hopeless endeavor to
acquire what is called 4 a fortune, upon the
interest of which they may support their fami-
lies and themselves in the decline of life
Their families are already expensive, and,
amidst the vcissitudes of trade and business,
how rarely is the wished-for happiness accom-
plished. 1t costs from $500 TO ST 200 per
year to support family Of five or six children,
in genteel position, in a city, and it would re-
quire at least $40, 900 of positive cash to do
this without the aid of business income. To
support the family, then, and lay by enough 10
form moderate fortune, within the number of
years that man may reasonably count upon
being successful in business, is evidently
herculean task, as times CO. know many
men, in good business position, with $IO,-
900 worth of stock on hand in their stores, a
good credit, and very free bank accommoda-
tions, who cannot support their families in the
manner described, for three years in succession,
and find themselves $500 better off at the end
of that period. They have first a good year,
and make 81 500 or 50 900, and then bad
year, and lose two-thrds of former accumula-
tions. And so it goes. They are absorbed
in business, they find no time for study or re-
Taxation, the mind becomes fallow, and the
body loses its vital spirit, and disease and mis-
anthropy follow.
| Now, to such persons | wish to suggest a
means of becoming Independent in a very few
years-that happy result which teazes and
tails. We will say that you are in successful
business and can possibly save $500 per year,
or some years at least. Do this, and get to-
gether 81, 200; take 5000 of this, or less. ac-
cording TO your age, and get an insurance
upon your life for SIS 900, for the benefit of
your wife and children. Make it perpetual
insurance, so that your policy shall not run
out, and the premium be raised pay the first
year down. Then look about you, and find
small farm, near the city where you reside,
worth, say $4 900 or $4,000. Let it be on a
river or railroad, easily accessible from town,
in about an hours ride, without horse and
carriage. Pay down $4,000 and give mort
gage for the balance; let the place be varied
in the character of its soil, and as pleasant and
attractive as possible; let there be plenty of
good water, and little stream if possible
small pond, and grove Of shade trees and
other natural advantages and natural beauties,
if such can be found. If there are fruit trees,
strawberry beds, &c., upon the place, so much
the better; if not, let the cheapness of the
land and its undeveloped natural advantages
decide you send your family 10 this place
