Santa FilOmena.*.
BY H W. LONGFELLOW

". LoNGFELLow.
Whene'er noble deed is wrought,
Whene'er is spoken nobl. thought,
Our hearts, in glad surprise, ~
To higher levels rise.
The tidal wave of deeper souls,
Into inmost being rolls,
And lifts unawares
Out of all meaner cares.
Honor to those whose words deeds
Thus help us il our daily needs,
And by their overflow
Raise us from what is low!
Thus thought l. as by night read
Of the great army of the dead,
The trenches cold and damp
The starved and frozen camp
The wounded from the battle-plain,
In dreaIy hospitals of pain.
The cheerless corrdnrs
The cold and stony floors.
Lo, in that house of misery
A lady with a lamp | see
Pass through the giimmering gloom,
And fit from room to
And slow as in a dream of bliss,
The speechieSS sufferer turns to kiss
Her shadow, as it falls
Upon the darkening walls.
As if door in heaven should be
Opened and then closed suddenly,
The visions came and went,
The light shone and was spent.
On England.s annals, through the long
Hereafter of her speech and song,
That light its rays shall cast
From portals of the past.
A lady with lamp shall stand
In the great history of the land,
A noble type of good,
Heroic wOmanhOod.
Nor even shall be wanting here
The palm, the lily and the spear
The symbols that of yore
Saint Filomena bore.

A SToRY-It was near midnight, towards the close
of the afternoon on sultry morning in December,
IS. previous to the revolution Of the last war,
when the burning moon was setting IN the eastern
skv casting brilliant shadow over the gorgeous
clouds which entirely obscured the fmament; and
the uncluuded sun was sending down its MONDAY
beams with intensity of heat, like the shrieking
of heavy thunder through the deep mountain gorges
of the western prairies.
Lonely was the sound of such spectacle to the
feet of the weary traveller for three feline monsters
of the deep were just gathering together for their
evening meal and separating ere the sun was risen,
for the sports of the chase and all things betokened
response too deep for utterance.
In the ensuing autumn about two years previous
to the above mentioned cat trophy, two pedestri
ans might have been riding on horseback in
three-wheeled carriage, up to the brow of preci-
pice, under the side of forest, which had been cut
down before the trees had begun to take root, and
engaged in eating their evening dinner by the road
side, in the arms of Morpheus The eldest of the
three gentlemen young lady, of about 53, and
about two years younger than the other man, which
latter gentleman was, from the manner in which he
. addressed him, evidently her only and youngest
daughter.
of pantaloons neatly buttoned round the tops of her
ears, and elegantly attached by golden strap of un
woven silk to the axletrees of the middle aged gen.
tleman's horse.
The timid individual, last mentioned, was an old
gentleman oi aooul t"eH'y y-t"o, "hose 'eneiao'e
features disclosed the vii hues of the Siberian
gro His bald head profuscIy covered with long
silver locks of sandy jet, and which he had evident
y lost during severe attack of sea sickness, caught
from the next door neighbor who resided several
blocks from him in the country. He also was rich
ly attred in the same manner as the lady, being
clothed in worn-out frock coat, which was Sc.
cured by straps under his feet.
Ills feet bare, his gloves, he had no gar
ments to shield him from the balmy atmosphere
He had lost both just above the collar-bone,
and was constrained to wear crutches. This, added
to his total blindness, rendered him an object of gen.
eral admiration.-ISan Diego Herald.
