GONE UP UNDER THE tlooP West Point (Ga) Citizen tells the following of a married man at he commencement exercises of Ger. tain college in Georgia this summer
 He started up the stairway at a swift pace, not noticing any further until he came nearly to the top of the steps, when he says strange sensa- ton came over him, and sud ienly he found himself enveloped in darkness, as though ths lights hal been extingushed. He was asion- ished and bewildered But the mystery was soon explained. and it appeared that lady, wearing very large hoop, had met him at the top of the stairs, and was just in the act of de- sceadi'g, when our friend, being small man, had, without noticing actually gone up under sSs H1P.

 BY II. W. LoNGFELLow Have you read the Talmud of old, In the legends the Rabbins have told Or the limitless realms of the air? Have yOn real it-the marvellous story Of Sindalphon, the Angel of Glory, Sandalphon the Angel of Prayer? How erect, at the outermost gates Of the City Celestial he waits,
 With his feet on the lad Ter of light. That crowded with angels unnumbered, By Jacob Was seen, a~ he slumbered Alone in the desert at nigh? The Angels of Wind and Of Ere, Chant onlv one hymn and expire
 With the songs irresistible stress Expire in their rapture and wonder, A, harp strings are broken assumder By the music they throb to express. But serene in the rapturous throng Unmovel by the rush of the song,
 With eyes mpassoned and Slow, Among the de id angels, the deathle,s Sad dphon stands listening, brcathless, To sounds that ascend from below From the spirits on earth that adore, From the souls that entreat and emplore. In the frenzy and passion of praver- From the hearts that are broken with losses And weary with dragging the crosses Too heavy for mortals to bear. And he gathers the prayers as he stands, And they change into flowers in his hands, Into garland, of purple and red; And beneath the greIt arch of the portal, Tnrough the streets of the City Immortal, Is waited the fragrance they shed. IL is but legend, l know 4 fable, phantnm, snow
 Oflhe ancient Ranbnlcal lore; Iel the old medieval, strauge superstition, The beauutul strange superstition
 But haunts me and hold, me the more. When look from my window at night, And the welkin above is all white, All thrab5ing and pantiug with stars, Among them majestic is standing SAndalphon the angel, expanding
 His plrions in nebuIous bars. And the legrnl, feel, is part Of the hunger and thirst of the heart The frenzy and fire of the brain, That sra~ps at the fruitage forbidden, The golden pomegraute. Of Eden,
 To quiet its leryor and pan
