certain what his wife was doing at hel

"She is sitting in her parlor," said the
lady, sand she looks out of the window

the gentleman, "who can she expect?
"Some one is entering h door she
seizes him, and caresses him fondly.'
"Horrible," interrupted the gentleman,
thinking of the Divorce Court. "Now

wished him, and went away bearing the

A week, however, passed away with

to the Rue des Champs Elysees, where
they found Madame de V - at home,

what he had already said about the in

To NV Mother.

Mother come back from the shadowy land,
Leave for moment thy sister bandi
know that thy dwelling there is fair,
Unshaded by sorrow, and dimmed not by care
But hast thou forgot that there still is one
To sit by the darkened hearth alone
That the world is a dreary path to stray
When the loving and loved ones have passed
awayI
Oft they tell me of Lethe's stream,
That is quaffed by those on the far-off shore,
And they say that but as a passing dream
Seem the things of earth for evermore:
1t may be that others, all others, forgeti
But feel in my soul that thou lowest me yet.
And yet know thou oanst miss not me,
Never, oh never, as | miss thee.
l miss thee at morning when sunbeams wake
The lights and shades on the dear old lake;
All through the long hours of the summer day
miss the voice that has passed away;
But most of all in the evening hour,
When / sit alone in our favorite bower,
Round which the roses loving twine,
True to my hand as once to thine.
And the faint, sweet fragrance that fioateth
there,
The stars that float through the heavenly air.
The river that murmurs the same refrain,
All, all seem to WOO thee back again.
To others the world is the same as Of yorc,
But 10 me it can be the same no more
A shadow is resting on vale and hill,
The sad night-voices are sadder still,
The wood: paths green is a sadder hue,
The summer Sky not so bright blue,
The lay Of the song-brds too soon is past
And the flowers cherish fade too fast
Mother, come back from the shadowy land,
Leave for momentthy sister band;
Take me forever with thee to dwell
Where they know not the parting word, Fare
wellg
Deaths river is dark, but fear it not,
For love can tighten the darkest spot
oh for the love of the far-off shore
With thine arm around me for eyermorc.

A MILITARY Custom IN Russia
The Temple Bar Magazine describe:
one peculiar method of recruiting the
Russian army. We quote:
Marriage is warmly encouraged
among the Russian soldiers, and ev-
cry facility is afforded to those who
desire to take unto themselves a wife,
The State supplies the martial Ben
edict with lodgings, and undertakes
to f c d, clothe and educate the
young olHc-branches that may chance
to springup around the happy troop
ers table. All this is of course
kindly meant, and seems benevolent; !;
but often things sweet taste
prove in digestion sour" A bounty
that appears on the first blush gcner-
Gus in thecXtrcme has its drawbacks.
The male children ofthese Muscovite
sons Of Mars, called Cantonists, are
claimed by the State; d from in
fancy are reared and trained with a
view of being made soldiers or other
wise employed in the public service.
They remain at home until they are
summarily sent off to the military de
pot to be instructed in their military
duties. 1t is estimated that this Lee
yitical class numbers no | c than
three hundred thousand souls; and
from it the non-commissoned officers
of regiments are obtained; the dis
cipIine they have undergone, and the
education they have received, having
contributed, it is supposed, to habits
of steadmess a n d industry, as well
as rendering them proficient in the
of the Russian field book.

Not Yet.

Not yct,--along the purpliug sky
We see the dawning ray;
But leagues of cloudy distance lie
Between us and the sky.
Not et,-the aloe waits serene
Its promised adyent-hour;
A patient century of green
To one full, perfect flower
Not yet,-no harvest song is sung
In the sweet ear of Spring;
Nor hear we, while the blade is young,
The reaper's sickle swing.
Not yet,-before the crown the cross;
The struggle ere the prize;
Before the gain the fearful loss;
And death ere Paradise.

The instant the head is laid on
the pillow is that in which conscience
delivers its decrecs. If it has con-
ceived any evil design, it is surround
ed by thorns. The softest down is
hard under the restless head of the
wicked. In order to be happy, one
must be on good terms with ones
pillow, for the nightly reproaches it
can make must be hard; yet it is
never so delicious, so tranquil, as
after a day on which one has per-
formed some good act, or when one
is conscious of having spent it in
some useful or substantial employ
ment.

At a recent funeral in Honolulu the
procession consisted of IA females, all
dressed in black skirts, with white waists
and straw hats, tastefully trimmed, and
with a broad sash Of red and yellow rib
bon over the shoulders, crossed with a
rosette at the waist. There were several
native marshals on horseback, wearing
the same gaudy sashes.

TRADE VERSUS WAR.-Wars prob
ably will never cease out ofthe earth.
Like the poor, they will be always
withus. Nevertheless they grow
fewer and milder. The heart of the
world will rest at peace, and wars
will only fringe its borders-in the
outlying countries not yet brought
within the pale. And in efecting
this happy change, the influence Of
commerce-thc operations of self
interest-will accomplish more than
all the moralizing Of sages or the
preachings of philanthropy. Have
we not felt, during this present year,
how firmly the golden meshes oftrade
have wound themselves round the
heart of the nation ? Unfelt, unnotic-
ed in ordinary times, it is only when
we raise our right arm in anger to
strike that we become sensible of
the golden meshes that have slowly
encircled us. We are bound over to
peace by chains which are not un-
pleasant to us. This, too, may have
its bad side, but that is a question
beyond our subject. Let it suffice that
other nations also, our neighbors and
rivals, are gradually coming into the
same golden bondage, and that the
more potent that bondage becomes.
the less need will there be for "a
policeman" in Europe.-Blacktcoo

A SCoTCH PoUND.--A story is told
Of a person presenting himself to the guild
wife in a remote district, and asking for
a pound Of butter. The ouncle weights
were rummaged over and over, but the
pun stane' was nowhere to be found
the smallest weight at hand being the
meal-stone quarter, which obviously
would not do. The honest woman took
long thought, till, whilst pondering
deeply, her brow frightened up. i ken
how wen manage it moo = she exclaimed,
The guide mon brought hame a pair O
tangs yestereen, which weighed in the
smilhg just twa pun. Sac stand by, and
III soon weigh you wi them your butter
Producing the tongs in triumph, she put
one leg in the scale, and let the other
hang out. The beam got its swing and
the stranger carried off his butter, highly
satisfied with his experience of CAL
loway pound.

"My domestic enjoymonts have been,

The Badge of the 18th Army Corps.

A wIrEE from the Army of the Cum
berland relates the following amusing
anecdote:
The troops which came here from the
Army of the Potomac brought with them
various ornamental hnbits and customs,
that we're new to the Western soldiers.
Among them was the corps badge which
designated the corps to which officers and
men were attached. For instance, the
badge Of the 11th corps is q crescent
that of the 18th star. The badge is
made of any material, gold, silver, or red
flannel, and worn cOnspicuously on some
part Of the clothing. The Western corps
have no suth badge. How an Irishman
explains the matter is thus told: A SOL
dier came by the headquarters Of Gene
raj Butterfeld, a tired, Weather-beaten
straggler. He was one Of those who made
Sherman's march from Memphis to Chat
tanOoga, thence to Knoxville, and was
now returning in the terrible cold Of that
returning march, thinly clad, one foot
covered with q badly worn army shoe,
the other with piece Of raw hide bound
with strings about a sockless fOOt-both
feet cut and bleeding. Arms at viii,
he trudged past the headquarters guard,
intent only upon Overtaking his regiment.

clean uniform, and white gloves.
