THE DREAMERs Ant HI EMPEROR
Charles V, while hunting, lost his
way, and entered a miserable roadside
inn for rest and refreshment. He no
ticed four men resting on q bed, whose
~countenances were by no means indi-
cative of good intentions. In fact
they were thieves. Charles asked for
refreshments, but he had scarcely
swallowed a drop, when II of the i'll
looking fellows got up and approached
him, with the remark, al dreamed
you had a mantle that would suit me
to a T." and thereupon he a%ppropri-
ated the garment. "And l." said the
second fellow, following his comrades
example, dreamed you had a buff
coat that would fit me nicely" At
the same time he seized upon the buff
coat. The third took his hat ; sus-
pended from his neck by a gold chain
was a whistle ; the fourth tried to
take it. "Softly, my friend, let me
first show you the use of this whistle"
Accordingly he raised it to his lips,
blew a shrill note, and the house was
filled with his armed rctainers.
"Hcre," said Charles, pointing to the
rufians, care a set of fellows who
dream whatever they want. 1t is my
turn now. l have dreamed that every
one of these rascals are worthy of a
gibbet. Let the dream be realized in
stantly." The hint was taken, and
without further formality, the rascal
ly quartette were swung up before
the inn door, a signal warning to all
u~nprincipled psychologists.

"LEr Me Kiss HIM FOR HIS MoTH-
ER."-The editor of the New Orleans
Advocate has this incident about the
ravages Of the yellow fever in that
city related to him by one of the
Methodist pastors 'The preacher
was called a few days since to attend
the funeral of a young man. Before
his sickness he was a stout, buoyant,
manly youth. He was from the State
Of Maine, and been here but a short
time. He was attacked by yellow
fever, and soo died, with no mother
or relatives to watch by his bedside,
OF to soothe him with that sympathy
which none but those of our own kin
dred blood can feel or manifest. He
died among strangers and was bu-
ried by them. When the funeral SER
vice was over, and the strange who
had ministered to him were about to
finally close the coffin, an old lady,
who stood by, stopped them and said,
:" let me kiss him for his mother +"
We have yet to find the first man or
woman to whose eye this simple reci-
tai has not brought tears"

REMEMBERED GRIEF.


II r lover died. Away from her,
The ocean girls his requiem sang,
And smoothcd his dreamless scpulchrc
Where the tall coral branches sprang.
And it was told her how he strovc
With death but not from selfish fear
1t was the memory of her love
Which made existence doubly dear.
They told her how his fevcrcd sleep
Revealed the phantom of his brain
He thought his love had come to keep
Her vigils at his couch of pain /;
And he would speak in his soft tone,
And stretch his arms to clasp the air,
And then awaken with O moan,
And weep that there was nothing there.
And when he bowed himself at last
Beneath the spoilers cold eclipse,
Even as the weary spirit passed.
Her name was on his marble lips.
She heard the tale she did not weep
1t was too strangely sad for tears
And so she kept it for the deep
Rememberings Of after years.
She poured one lone and plaintive wall
For the loved dead-it was her last
Like harp-tones, dying on the gale
Her minstrelsy OF spirit passed
And she became an altered one.
Forgetiul of her oldcn shrine,
As il her darkened soul had done
With all beneath the fair sunshine.
Walters Minstrel Girl.
