EQUINE MENoRy.-A venerable friend, whose
memory runs back nearly four score years and ten,
told ue q story the other day illustrative of the re-
tentiveness of a horses memory, which struck US
as too good not TO be told again. The occurrence
dated back to the yeara Of his boyhood, aud was
related with all the particulars Of collateral veri-
6cation. We give it in brief;
A ~favorite horse that had been stolen from his
stall, after an interval of two or three years was
driven by his unsuspectihg purchaser to the door
of his former owner. The latter asserting his
right of property, and offering to submit the val
iiity of his claim to the horses decisions the pur-
chaser cheer!ully accepted tho proposal. The test
was to be the horses removal of the wooden pin
which fastened the barn door. his opening the
door and taking his accustomed place in the stoll.
On being embarrassed and allowed the liberty of
the yard, he at first began to nibble about the
borders OF the enclosure. Presently his eye The

BEWARE OF RITZ

Bulwer, the master novelist, writes a reflection
which will appeal to the sensibilities Of every man
and woman:
There is one warning lesson in life which few
of US have not received, and no book that l can
call to memory has noted down with an adequate
emphasis. 1t is this, Beware of parting The
true sadness is not the pain of the parting, it is in
the When and the How you are to meet again
with the face about to vani,h from your view
From the passionate farewell to the woman, who
has your heart in her keeping. to the cordial good

tering place. q country-house, or the close of q

cord, stronger or weaker, 10 snapped asunder in
every parting, and Times busy fingers are not

you may; will it be again in the same way, With
the same sympathiesf With the SAM sentimentsf
Will the souls, h~urrying on in divers paths, unite
once more, as il the Interval had been a dream 7

early acquaintance Of hers. 'IIe's very kind
but taking them is another thing, though they
are good for all ails that are impertinent to the

these medicine men are to the human family, to

that brought up a whole family Of children, and

upon it, sir" continued she, addressing old Ro-
ger, there's so much virtue in 'em that every
body will be made virtuous, and everybody be
made over again new, and tbere'll be no excuse

WHY VIRGINIA Is CALLED The OLD
DOMINION.

During the usurpation of Cromwell, Virginia
declared herself independent Of his authority,
when the usurper threatened to send a feet to re-
duce the colony. Fearing to withstand such o
force, the colonisss despatched in a small ship q
messenger to Charles IL, then an exile in Elan
ders, inviting their royal outcast to be their king.
He accepted the invitation, and on the very eve Of
embarking for his throne in America, was recall
ed to the throne of England. In gratitude for
Virginia. loyalty, he gave her q coat of arms with
those of England, Scotland and Ireland, as an in-
dependent member Of the British empire. The
coin establishes these facts. Hence the origin of
the phrase ''OldD Dominion"
The colonists of that period numbered 10000
and the Protector declared them to be notorious
robbers and traitors, prohibiting by his authority
all intercourse with them. A 0eet was sent over
under Sir George Ayscue, to put down any traces
of monarchical authority still lingering among
the Virginian loyalists. They were firm to
Charles and the parliament, declaring that they
we're born under a monarch, and would never de-
generate from the condition OF their birth by be-
ing subject to any other government. When the
expedition, however, reached the Chesa peake to
expel Sir VIM. Berkeley, the governor. from Vir-
ginia, resistance was laid aide. Berkely dis
dained to make any stipulations for himself, with
drawing 20 q retired 81 %ustion, universally respec-
ted, until a new revolution summoned him again
to defy the republican forces Of England, and re-
store loyalty in the Virginia C lony.
This happened in March, 1862. Cromwell,
however, continued his governors until 1860, when
the last of them, Matthews, died. and the people
elected Sir. VIM Berkeley, as the old record
says, "by an o5liging violence compelled him TO
accept the government" lie refused however to
act under the asurpations of the Cromwells, un-
less the colonisss pledged their lives and fortunes
for the British king, in exile. with a unani-
nous voice they told him that they were ready
to hazard all things for the king"
The Virginians seem to have been true loyalists,
for this took place as we have noticed. actually be-
fore the kings return to England. Berkeley pro-
claimed 'Charles Second king Of England, Scot
land, Ireland and Virginia, before he was in Eng-
land" Upon his restoration, the monarch gran
ted Sir William permission to visit England and
it is related that he wore at his coronation, q robe
made of silk from the Virginia colony.

MAKE HOME BRIGHT AND PLEASANT

More than building snowy mansion
More than dress and fine array
More than domes or lofty steeplos-
More than station, power and sway,
Make your nome both neat and tasteful,
Bright and pleasant. always fair,
Where each heart shall rest contented,
Grateful for each beauty there.
More than lofty swelling titles
More thar fashions Turing glare
More than mammon's gilded honors-
More than thought can well compare,
See that home is made attractive,
By surroundings pure and bright,
Trees arranged with taste and order,
Flowers with all their sweet delight.
Seek to make your Home most lovely.
Let it be a smiling spot,
Where, in sweet contentment resting,
Care and sorrow are forgot;
Where the flowers and trees are waving,
Birds will sing their sweetest songs,
Where the purest thoughts will linger,
Confidence and love bel, ngs.
Make your home a little Eden,
Initiate her smiling bowers.
Let a neat and simple cottage
Stand among bright trees and flowers.
There, what fragrance and what brightness,
Will each blooming rose display
Here, a simI lie vine-clad al Dor
Brightens through each summer day.
There each heart will rest conten,ed,
Seldom wishing far to roam,
Or, if roaming, etill will cheri.h
Mem'ries of that pleasant Home;
Such a Home makes man the better,
Pure and lasting its control
Home with pure and bright surroundings
Leaves its impress on the soul.

Where the faded flowers shall freshen-
Freshen never more to fade /;
Where the shaded sky shall brighten
Brighten never more to shade;
Where the sun-blaze never scorches;
Where the star-beams cease to chill;
Where no tempest stirs the echoes
OF tho wood. or wave, or hill:
Where the morn shall wake in gladness,
And the noon the joy prolong.
Where the daylight dies in fragrance,
MID the burst of holy song;
Brother, we shall meet and rest
Mid the holy and the blestl
Where no shadow shall bewilder,
Where lifo's vain parade is Ger,
Where the sleep Of sin is broken,
And the dreamer dreams no moro.
Where the bond is never severed
Paintings, claspings, sob, and moan,
Midnight waking, twilight weeping,
Heavy noontide-all are done ;
Where the child has found its mother,
Where the mother fnds the child;
Where dear families arc gathered,
That were scattered on the wild;
Brother, we shall meet and rest
Mid the holy and the blest.
Where the hidden wound is healed,
Where the blighted life re-blooms,
Where the smitten heart the freshness
Of it's buoyant youth resumes.
Where the love that here we lavish
On the whitening leaves of time,
Shall have fadeless flowers to fix on,
In an ever spring bright cline;
Where we find the joy of loving,
As we never loved before;
Loving on. unchilled, unhindered,
Loving once and evermore;
Brother, we shall meet and rest,
Mid the holy and the blest.
Where a blasted world shall brighten
Underneath a bluer sphere,
And a softer, gentler sunshine
Shed its healing splendor here,
Where earth's barren wales shall blossom,
Putting on her robe Of green,
And a purer, fairer Eden
Be where only wastes have been;
Where a King in kingly glory.
Such as earth has never known,
Shall assume the righteous scepter,
Claim and wear the holy crown;
Brother, we shall meet and rest,
Mid the holy and the blest!
