q There hangs mist nbeve the stream,
Ard slow it takes a womau's shape,
And in the full moons silver beam,
Floats on to yondercape.
The waters mn1nur to the sedge
By no sound else the air is stirred,
Save when from yonder grayc-yard's edge
The midnight OWLS heard. = =
There is no whisper in the trees;
The breeze is rnute-its wings arc furled,
But now come mouFnful melodies,
- As from another world
The phantom sings weired sad song
OF one who loved long years ago,
But rushed to death from cruel wrong,
Where these cold waters flow.
Athwart the moon there glides a cloud,
A dark cloud fringed with CHASTITY light;
It seems a coffin and shroud4
A vague awe thrills the night.
The song is hushed the misty shape
Looks towards the lone place of graves,
Then turns, and plnDges from the cape,
And sinks beneath the waves.
The silver moon shines out once more;
The coffin and the shrond are gone;
The waters murnnr as before,
And dreanily glide on.
The breeze. as from a spell, awakes;
It's breathings soft the dead air fill;
Sweet music in the trees it makes;
The ominous owl is still.
But am haunted all night long,
By thoughts of one, who, long ago,
Rushed to dark death from cruel wrong,
Where these cold waters flow.

OF all you can give your Charley, if you

best and safest thing. God never meant him
to do without you any more than chickens

and make all the litter his heart desires. and

you give him pair Of scissors and little

a bot liquid gum is an invaluable resource
for various purposes. nor must you mind
though he varnsh his nose and fingers and
clothes, (which he will do OF cou,se) if he does
nothing worse. A cheap paint box, and
some engravings to color, is another: and if
you will give him some real paint and putty

The distance run was two miles and IL quarter

II was run was three minutes and Gftvsx
seconds, the mare carrying l01 lbs. This is
at the rate of minute 45a seconds or say
~ to the II lie. wo miles at the rate of3 80
and il carried ont at the same IA te, the Good

heat in l.G4. The two mile rate however.
having been DONE is that which NAV be fairly
comInIrd with the two mile time performed
by American horses IN this country. The
" American Racing Calendar and Trot'ing
Record, gives the time of Ilrgira, four
year old. which ran a two mile heat at New
Orleans IN lh5O, with each weight, in 334l !:
the best two mile time Ii AIDE IN this country

those who have not witnessed it. There
was just time to cXtrcatc the horses and
cattle from the stable, when that, as
well as the house and wood house, were
'cnveiopcd in flames. All, as Lcakc's
neighbor had forcwarned him, went to-

labor of many montbs.-the dear old fur
nitnrc of the Connecticut home, all the
children $ pretty things, fond memorials,
precious keepaakes that no toll, no art,
no kindness could make up to them.-
