to establish communication with the prisoner
when his eye fell upon the superscrption of
the packet. He stared for one moment with
surprise aud then his color changed, and he
grew deadly pale. His eye hurried rapidly to
the tower-an exclamation of grief burst from
his lips-and he stood aghast At this moment
the steps of the soldiers coming to relieve
guard resounded along the Yaulted passage
communicating between the court and ether
parts of the mansion. At the sound the blood
rushed back into Gera!d's face, until it cover
ed forehead and temples lie hastily replac-
ed the packet in the hiding-place where be had

and in a state Of l-repressed agitation, await
ing the corporal and guard.
The young soldier who was now brought to
relieve him from his post, was the same Mark
haywood Of whom he had expressed his jeal-
Gus doubts
The usual ceremony OF relieving guard was
gone through but although the words of order
were few, these few words were communicate
ed by Gerald IN brief angry tone, aud receiv-
ed by the other young soldier with q cold,
frowning air. Between the two young men
there appeared to exist feelings Of an instinc-
tive repulSiOn.
As he turned to leave the court, Gerald
gave another anxious, eager look at the old
tower, and glanced askance at the leafy hid
ing-pace Of the packet. Another troubled
sigh burst from his heart but whatever
thoughts occupied him before passing under
the vauted passage, he raised his eyes to the
well-known chamber easement, which was close
by. lie could evidently perceive Mildred's
graceful form partly ensconced behind a
hanging to her window. Was she watching
his departure No. II seemed to him as if
her eyes we're turned in the direction of the
handsome young recrait-that detestcd May

more. lie felt convinced that the young SEN

IF WE KNEW.
BY RUTH BENTON.

If we knew the cares and crosses
Crowding round ,dr neighbor's way,
If we knew the little losses,
Sorely grevious, day by day.
Would we then so often chide him
For his lack OF thrift and gain
Leaving on his heart shadow,
Leaving on our lives stain?
If we knew the clouds above US,
Held by gentle blessings there,
Would We turn away all trembling,
In our blind and weak despair!
Would we shrink from little shadows,
Lying on the dewy grass,
While It's only birds Of Eden,
Just in mercy flying past?
II we knew the silent story,
Quiyering through the heart of pain,
Would our womanhood dare doom them
Back to haunts of guilt again?
Life hath many a tangled crossing;
Joy hath many a break of woe
And the checks, tear washed, are whitest;
This the blessed angels know.
Let rs reach in our bosoms
For the key to other lives,
And with love towards erriug nature,
Cherish good that still survives
So that when our disrobed spirits
Soar to realms of light again,
We may say, dear Father, Judge Us
As we judged our fcllow-meR.

tie his shoe-strings.7 What a fearful amount
of wear and tear to the nervous system is

continual strife is there in every community for

much disappointment and envy may lie found
ranking in the breasts Of many persons DR..

which produces so many Of the ills that flesh

Formulation of the Grave.

From extensive calculation, it seems the
average Of human births since Christ
to this time is about thirty-two thousand
millions; and, after deductilg the present
supposed population of tho world, (960, 600
900, ,000) this would leave 81 ,040, 900, 600
that have gone down to the grave, giving
death and the grave the victory over the
living to the number of thirty thousand
and eight millions. OF this number in the
grave, about 1900, ,0oO,0 600, hayO died by
wars.
What a picture 5000, 600 Of our
race snatched away by war, that cruel de-
vice to get rid Of men in the quickest
manner possible We trample upon the
dust Of these millions, and they cry out,
Ye living men, work with all your might
to set up the kingdom Of the Prince Of
Peace, when there shall be no more our
May tho all-powsrful Head Of the uni
verse speedily cause the warrior to shcaths
bis battle blade; and then not only shall
the millions be directly slays stand ny
and live, but millions who indirectly suffer
from his agency.
