MISCELLANY.
Es0vy FIRST MET NV WIFE

There was always a mystery hanging
about certain way which Morgan had,
and in which lie was always Joined hon,
estly by his wife-luy own cousin-May
Stephens that has becn--a way that
troubled my curiosity much, until the
eventful evening that | was satisfied by
hearing the reason why.
1t was simply this that every time a
word was spoken that led to the period
when Char-ey Morgan Fl st met my cousin
May, they would laugh very heartily,
but would always refuse to tell at what
they laughed. This was certainly very
provoking. and | had little hesitation
in telling them so-not once but many
timcs-at which they laughed more
heartily than ever, and always ended by
kissing each other and looking very af-
tcctiouate.
determined to have a solution of the
matter, if for 10 other purpose than that
it worried me. | am but IA woman, and
have pleaded to the possession Of curl
osity see no reason why it should not
be INDUCED. With this resolution |
set forth, one evening, when we three,
Morgan, May and myself, were drawn
up before the fire and fairly settled for a
talk.
''Mr. Morgan, Il usually called him
Charley, but was desirous Of showing
that | was in earnest-"Mr. Morgan,
why do you always laugh aud look at
May when the suhj"ct Of Your first meet
ing with her is spoken off,
This, | was sure, was simple ques-
tion and yet, ins,e d of answering it in a
simple way, they went back, both Of them
on the old plan, and laughed as though
the words | had spoken were the very
best Joke in the world | could do moth
ing of course, but look grave and sol
emn, which in few moments broueh;
them both to looking the same way,
ard then May spoke to me seriously, AID
said:
cousin Jane, you take our laughing
more seriously than thought you would.
1t is only little memory between Char
ley and that brings the laugh; to US it
is a droll remembrance, but perhaps in
telliugit there would Dc nothing to amuse
any one."
The explanation brought back my good
humor in an instant, aud with smile |
said
Now, May, this is really unkind of
you for SO long have you excited my
curiosity that even were the story not
worth telling, you should tell it."
"Well. cousin Jane shall have the
story May; | will tell it myself to her.

BLACK DAYs.-Havo you ever known
days that were black? Have you ever
known days in which everything went
wrong. as thou ch some invisible hand
turned your whole life topsy -tulycy Did
every sharp instrument you handled
pierce or cut you of its own accord? Did
some undiscoverable individual throw
your neatly arranged work into confu-
sion, and abstract the book In which you
were deeply interested? !? Did the cur
rent of your thoughts, which usually
flowed with pleasant freedom, suddenly
become staenant? Did the person you
least wish to sec force themselves into
your presence, and those you loved best
remain absent? Did you labor with more
than wonted zeal, yet accomplish moth
ing? Such unbalanced davs when life
seems ali game of cross purposes, will
come to most of US and how is this un-
holy spell TO be broken Very often

a strong, pure heart, genial temperan ent.

INFANTS AND AIR.-Parlamentary

ofthe twenty five died before they were
IA year old. a law was Immediately
passed that they shouli be sent to the
country thereafter, when it was found
that only nine out twenty five died the
first year, that Is, instead Of twenty six
hundred and and ninety dying, there
were only four hundred and fifty, diff
ference Of twenty-five hundred and for

This simple, unvarnished statement of
an ihdisputable fac; ought to impress the
mind of every parent deeply, with the
importance and the duty of using all
practical means for securing to children
the habitual breathing Of the pure>t ait
possible, being careful to avoid radical
misch;evous and most prevalent error
that warm air is necessarily impure. -
Warmth is as essential to infantile health
as pure air. How best to secure both

Two brown heads with tossing curls,
Red lips shutting over pearls,
Bare feet white and wet with dew,
Two eyes black and two ewes blue;
Little boy and girl were they,
Katie Lee add Willie Grey.
They were standing where a brook,
Bending like a shepherds crook,
Flashed its silver. and thick ranks
OF green willow frin9ed the banks;
llalf in thought and half in play,
Katie Lee and Willie Grey.
They had cheeks like cherries red
He was ta!ler-most a head;
She, with arms like wreaths Of snow,
Swung a basket to and fro,
As she loilered, half in play,
Chattering to Willie Grey.
"Pretty Katie" Willie said-
Aud there came dash of red
Through the BROWNIES of his check
Boys are strong aud girls are weak,
And I'll carry, so will,
katie's basket up the hill"
Katie answered. with IA laugh,
You shall carry only half"
Aud then, tossing back her curls,
Boys arc weak as we'll as girls"
Do you think that Katie guessed
ualf the wisdom CHE expressed?
Men are only boys grown tail,
Hearts don't change much, after all
And when, long years from that day,
Katie Lee and Willie Grey
Stood again beside the brook,
Bending like a shepherds crook
Is il strange that Willie said
While again dash of red
Crossed the BROWNIES of his check
IL au strong and you are weak
Life is but slippery steep,
Hang with shadows cold and dep;
"Will you trust me, Katie dear?
Walk beside me without fear;
May | carry, if will,
All your burdens up the hill 2"
And size answered with laugh,
''No, but you may carry halt"
Close beside the little brook,
Bending like IL shepherds crook,
Washing with its silver hands,
Late and early at the sands,
Is a cottage, where. to-day,
Katie lives with Willie Grey.
In a porch she sits, ard 10!
Swings basket to and fro,
Vastly different from the one
That she swung in years agone;
This is long. and deep, and wide,
And has-rockers df tie side!

ANECDoTE OF TIE SURRENDER OF
CoRNwALLIs.-Tha following fact was
recently given b. {; lady of Philadelphia,
grand daughter o. Judge Peters. Itis
therefore reliable:
during General Wasiington's South
ern campaign, and while Richard Peters
subsequently Judge Of the District Court
of the United States was Secretary of the
Board of War, he met, at an evening en-
tertainment, Robert Morris. who observ-
ed the gloomy expression of countera ance
and his usual demeanor, and urged him
to conceal his anxieties, lest the cause in
Which all were so much interested should
be injured by such an appearance of des-
pondency.
Mr.. Peters replied, 'that lie was in
great embarrassment having received an
order from the commander inchief for
ammunition, and having exhausted allavail-
able supplies, even to the lead pipes from
some of the dwelling houses, he was un-
able to meet the demand
"Checr up. cheer up replied Mr..
Norris, L have just heard of one of my
ships being below-her ballast is lead

both left the parry, and before morning
the bullets were casting which aided iii

The news of this surrender reached
Philadelphia between one and two o'clock
at night. The watchmen in those days
were in the habit of calling the hour
They were all Germans. and the welkin

A FEARFUL RETRIRUTioN THREAT
ENED-The blockade of the Mississippi
River is producing its natural effect in
arousing bitter feeling throughout the
northwest Measures of retaliation begin
TO be talked of. The Cincinnati Ge-
zette goes so far as to recommend the d.
struction of the embankment on the riY-
er. 1t says:
BY breaking down the e,nbankments'
we can easily overflow all the country of
the lower Mississippi and drown ont the
towns and plantations.
The terrible effect of crevasses on the
southern plantations in former years are
not yet forgotten, and this threat FROM
the West bears Il peculiar significance.
We may look for curious developments
m this warfare of the river, bur it is to :
be hoped that extreme measures Oh either
side will be avoided.
