The LAST FOLLY OF WEALTH.-ln
one Of the new, splendid mansions ofthe
Rue la Vile l'Eyeque, lives gentle
man of large fortune. His delight is
to haunt the lowest drinking-shops and
balls, disguised by blouse, and "scrape
acquaintance" with the people to be
met there. He invites them to dine
with him. They accept, and are a
little surprised to see the address prove
a splendid mansion. They are re-
ceived by porter with oppressive po-
liteness, and are ushered into a magnii-
cent drawing-room. When they are
all assembled the butler says that Mons.
Nicolas (the pseudonym taken by the
whimsical millionaire), is busy down
town and cannot join them at once !;
he will come as soon as he can, mean
time be begs these gentlemen to accept
a mouthful while waiting for him. The

great abundance, the choicest viands
and the best vintages. The servants
have orders to ply them with wines.

an incident of the entertainment es-
capes him. He hopes to see the effect
of intoxication on these people breaking
into strange freaks and extravagant
whims he reckons upon seeing one of
those Oriental tales where beggar is
lifted from his rags and transported into
possession of untold wealth. He has
yet been disappointed. They are
blinded and consequently embarrassed
by the splendor of wealth which envi-
rons them, and their palates, for years
scared by the scorching vinous liquids
prepared in Partisan alemblcs, finds
Clos Vougeot insipid and Chambertin
tasteless. So the fairy-Bacchus'
daughter-upon whom he reckoned to
work the amusing transformation, has
not appeared, and Lazarus revel passes
off as quietly and formally as Dives
state banquets. Should it not raise
scorn and Indignation that wealth
should prostitute its treasures to those
ignoble uses while life possesses so many
hungered lips and so many fevered
brains to which these squandered sums
of money would give peace, maybe pros
perity, and to the world some master
piece which after ages should not will

Twenty Years Ago.

I've wandered to the village Tom I've sat beneath
the tree,
Upon the school-house playground, which shell
tered you and me;
Bat none were there to greet me, Tom, and few
were les 10 know
That played with rs upon the green some twenty
years ago.
The grass is just as green, Tom bare-fOOted boys
at play.
Were sporting just as We did them with spirits Just
as gay:
But the master sleeps upon the hill, which
coated DER with snow,
Afforded Us sliding place, just twenty years ago.
The old school-house is altered now the benches
are replaced
By new ones, very ike the same our pen-knives had
defaeed
But the same old bricks are in the wall, the bell
swings 10 and fro,
It's music just the same, dear Tom, twas twenty
years ago.
The boys were playing some old game beneath that
same old tree
have forgot the name just now-you'se played the
same with me
On that same spot twas played with knives, By
throwing so and-so;
The loser had task to do-there, twenty years ago
The rivers running just as still the willows on
its side
Are larger than they were, Tom-the stream ap-
pears less wide
But the grapevine swing is ruined now, where
once we played the beau.
And swung our sweethearts-pretty girls-just
twenty years ago.
The spring that bubbled meath the HILL close by the
spreading beech,
Is very low-twas SO high that we could almost
reach
And kneeling down to get drink. dear Tom,
started SO,
To see how sadly am changed, since twenty years
ago.
Near the spring, upon an elm, you know cut youl
name;
Your sweetheart's just beneath, Tom, and you did
mine the same;
Some heartless wretch has peeled the bark, 'twa:
dying sure but slow,
Just as that one, whose name you cut died tive nty
years ago.
Ny lips have long been dry, Tom, but tears came
in my eyes
thought OF her loved so well, those early broken
ties
visited the old church yard, and took some flowers
to strew
Upon the graves of those we loved some twenty
years ago.
Some are in the church-yard laid-some sleep be-
meath the sea
But few are left of our old class, excepting you
and me-
And when our time shall come, Tom, and we are
called to so,
