Our Social Circle,
The Two Homes.

Two men on their way home met at street
crossing, and they walked on together. They
were neighbors and friends.
This has been very hard day." said Mr.,
Freeman, in gloomy voice. And as they
walked homeward they discouraged each other
and made darker the clouds that obscured
their whole horizon.
Good evening" was at last said hurried
ly, and the two men passed into their homes
Mr.. Wacott entered the room where his
wife and children were gathered, and without
speaking to any one, seated himself in chair,
and leaning his head back, closed his eyes.
His countenance wore sad, weary, exhausted
look. He had been seated thus for only
few minutes, when his wife said, in fearful
voice.
"More trouble again"
"What is the trouble now ?" asked Mr..
Walcott almost starting
John has been sent home from school,"
"What?' Mr.. Walcott partly rose from
his chair.

something with him. He'll be ruined if he
goes on in this way. I'm out of all heart
with him."
Mr.. Walcott, excited as much by the man
ner in which his wife conveyed the unpleas-
ant information as by the information itself,
started up, under the blind impulse of the mo-
ment, and going to the room where John had
been sent on coming home from school, pun

child tried to make him hear.

Mr.. Walcott had never known his son tc
tell an untruth, and the words fell with re-
buke upon his heart.

the room he went down stairs, feeling much
more uncomfortable than when he went up

half in despair.

Autumn,

Bright flowers are sinking,
Streamlets are shrinking
Now the wide forest is wither'd and sere
Light clouds are flying,
Soft winds are signing:
We will be thoughtful, for Autumn is near.
Blossoms we CHERISHED
Have wther'd and perish'd,
Scenes which we smiled on are yellow and drear
Feelings of sadness
O'ershadow our gladness,
And make the mind thoughtful, for Autumn is near.
Thus all tina t is fairest,
And sweetest and rarest,
Must shortly be sever'd and call for tear;
Then let each emotion
Be warm with devotion,
And we will be thoughtful, for Autumn Is near.

From the National Era.
Lines for a Village Festival.

The Persian to his affairs bore
Sweet blossoms fresh with morning dew,
And yelled the old false worship DER
With beauty borrowed from the true;
Around Palamon's fowery shrine
Their maze of grace the maidens wound,
And woye the wreaths of Isthmian pine
Whsrewith the victors' brows were crowned.
And we to-day, amidst our flowers
And fruits, have come to own again
The blessing of the summer hours,
The early and the latter rain;
With manhood's strength and maiden's glance,
To lend our Christian holiday
The beauty of the Persian dance,
The vigor of the Grecian play.
To see our Fathers hand once more
Reverse for us the plenteous horn
of autumn, filled and running o'er
With fruit and flower and golden corn.
Once more the liberal year laughs out
o'er richer stores than gems or gold;
Once more with harvest-song and shout
Is Natures bloodless triumph told;
Our common mother rests and sings
Like Ruth among the garnered sheaves;
Her lap is full of goody things,
Her forehead gay with autumn leaves !!
Oh, favors old, yet ever new!
Oh, blessings with the sunshine sent!
The bounty overruns our due,
The fullness shames our discomfort.
We shut our eyes, the flowers bloom on;
We murmur, but the corn-ears fill;
We choose the shadow, but the sun
That casts it shines behind us still.
God gives us with our rugged soil
The power to make it Eden-fair,
And richer fruits to crown our toll
Than summer-wedded islands bear.
Who murmurs at his lot to-day!
Who scorns his native fruit and bloom
Or signs for dainties far away,
Beside the bounteous board of homer
Thank Heaven, instead, that Freedoms arm
Can change rocky soil to gold;
That brave and generous lives can warn
A cline with northern ices cold
And by these affairs, wreathed with flowers
And piled with fruits. awake again
Thanksgiving for the golden hours,
The early and the latter rain.

Let us look Tor lew moments upon Mr.
Freeman, the friend and neighbor of Mr..
Walcott. He, also, had come home weary,
dispirited, and almost sick The trials of
the day had been unusually severe, and when
he looked anxiously forward to scan the flu
ture, not even CLEAN of light was seen
along the black horizon.
As he stepped across the Threshold of his
dwelling pang shot throug his heart, for
the thought came" How slight the present
hold upon all these comforts" Not for him
self, but for his wife and children was the
pain.
Fathers come cried glad little voice
on the stairs the moment his football sounded
in the passage, then quick, pattering feet
were heard-and then tiny form was
springing into his arms. Before reaching
the sitting-room above, Alice, the eldest
daughter, was by his side, her arm drawn
fondly within his, and her loving eyes lifted
to his face.
Are you not late, dear?" 1t was the
gentle voice Of Mrs. Freeman.
Mr.. Freeman could not trust himself to
answer. He was too deeply troubled il
spirit to assume at the moment Cheerful
tone, and he had no wish to sadden the
hearts that loved him by letting the depres
sion from which he was suffering become toe
clearly apparent. But the eyes of Mrs
Freeman saw quickly below the surface.
care you not well, Robert ?" she in
quired tenderly, as she drew his large arm
chair toward the centre of the room.
GA little headache" he answered, with
slight evasion.
Scarcely was Mr.. Freeman seated ere 6
pair of hands was busy with each foot, re
moving gaiter and shoes, and supplying thei
place with soft slipper. There was no
one in the household who did not feel hap
pier for his return, nor one who did not seel
tie render him some kind Office.
1t was impossible, under such burst o
heart-sunshine, for the spirit Of Mr.. Freeman
long to remain shrouded. Almost imper
ceptibly to himself, gloomy thoughts CAV
place to more cheerful ones, and by tho tim
tea was ready, he had half forgotten tn
fears which had so haunted him through tn
day.
But they could not be held back altogeth
er, and their existence was marked durin
the evening by an unusual silence and alb
straction of mind. This was observed b.
Mrs. Freeman, who more than half suspect
ing the cause, kept back from her husban
the know edge Of certain matters abou
which she had intended to speak to him, 10
she feared they would add to his mental dis
quietude During the evening she gleane
from something he said the real cause of hi
changed aspect. AT once her thoughts CON
menced running in new channel. BY
few leading remarks she drew her husba n
into conversation on the subject of home ex
penses and the propriety of restriction j
various points. Many things we're mutual
pronounced superauous and easy to be dis
pensed with, and before sleep fell soothing
