My father bought fine instrument
and i was the hero of the village TO
months.
1t was some days after that Sunda,
that ventured to ask about the rector
niece.
"My dear boy" said my mother
'the like was never heard. We saw
lyou there and wondered what you wer,
doing, but as soon as we saw you will

girl, she seemed as if ia dream, and
so did You; it was dreadful for me to
see you with your eyes fixed on her,
watching her so eagerly. And then to
look at her, staring up at the glass win
dow as if she could see through it,mlles
and miles away into the sky. Oh, I'm
sure the like never was; and then, when
yOu fell down, 1 screamed, and your
fatrer ran up and carried you down,
and brought you home in farmer

After this l had an invitation to go
up to the rectory, and there, in the
long winter evenings, we used to sit;
and while / played, she sang. oh,
those happy timesl when she loved me,
bnt only as "a dear friend; and loved
her az 1 never had loved before or
could love again. do not know the
kind of love L had for her. was but "a
little older than she was, but / felt as a
father might feel towards his daughter;
sweet tenderness and love that made
me pitiful to her. i know she loved
man INV orthy of her, and 1 think, at
times, she felt this herself, and 1 knew
felt it.
L was perfectly free of the rector's
house at last, and we used to find in
our music a means of converse that our
tongues could never have known. All,
me-those days! Gone! Alas! they
are gone.
She left us at last, and in few years
her mOtherless child came back in her
place, and as l again sit in the cid rec
tory parlor, years aud years after my
first visit, with her daughter beside me
singing-but, alasl not with her moth

back upon me, and feel a grateful,
calm Joy in the openly shown respect
and affection of the daughter of her
whom [ loved 50 silently, so tenderly,
and so long.
L sit in the old seat in the CHURCH
now and play; and, once in the year,
the old anthem; but the voice is gone

TUE HAUNTING FACE.


What daily cares and thoughts give place
To quickened memories! oft on me
Sudden, unthOugbt Of-gleams a face
Which no one else will ever see.
No space can be within my ken
But there it happily lies in wait,
The shadows veil it in the glen,
The rays reveal it ON the height.
Down gazing in a stream that lies
Unruffied meath the placid air,
/ meet the light Of those deep eyes
And catch the cleaning OF the hairs
Or, as watch the changing sky,
When fleecy white the blue enshrOuds, =.
That face, as from easement high, -
Looks out through openings IN the clouds
The solid darkness OFthemght
Around 1t forms a background deep;
1t ever greets me warm and bright,
Within the yestibHle of sleep.
UnsOught it comes, unbidden STAYS,
Aud yet, all dreamlike though il be-,
No sexual form that meets my gaze
Has such significance for me.
It tells of years that golden glide,
OF Joys which no regrets between,
OF life expanded, glOFifed.
OF other things that might have been.
Fair as of yOre, as Young, as bright,
80 glOws 1t on my vision now;
Years never rob the eye Of light
Nor leave a shadow on the brow.
Yet not on earth nor i'm the skies
Exists the face that haunts me 30,
That shining hair, those beaming eyes,
Faded forever, long ago.

0f Weber ID told, which Is new to us
It Waa Id Is0ndens and in l8Ilsg Weber was in
boat with some ladies, and began to perform on
the antet which he played to great perfection.
Bnt seeing his boat was followed closely by an
other, in which were several yeung officers lie put
his flute into bic pocket. Why do you stop play
ing IN said one bf the officers to Weber d For
poser & And that is2i Because il pleasps
me.n Well, then, said the officer, stake up
your lutte again, q il will please me TO throw you
In the Waterh
J The composer, seeing that the dialogue was I'M
pleasant to The ladies he was with, gave way,
and began playing again, When leaving his boat,
however, he aeGosted the bold son Of Mars, and
said Sir, the fear Of annoying the people who
were with us yesterday made me brook your in
science; hut tomorrow will have entire salts
faction. Ne can meet in Hyde Park tomorrow
.at 10 o'clock. If YOU have no objections we will
fight with swords; we need no seconds the
quarrel Is only between yon and me, and tits
quite useless to bring in strangers.n The young
officer accepted tho challenge He was at the
rendezvous at the appointed hour, and met Weber
as agreed on. He drew out his sword and put
himself onguard, when Weberpresented pistol
at his throat Do you wish to murder me7''
said the officer. No, said Weber, "hut be kind
4 enough to put mp yanr sword at once. and To
dance minnet, or you are dead man.
The officer made some objection; but the au-
thoritative and determined tone of Weber seemed
influence him, and Notwithstanding the arrival
of some people on the scene of action, be went
through what he was asked, or rather told to do
e Sir, z said the musician, 8 you compelled me
yesterday 10 play against my wish--I have now
compelled you 70 dance against yours Our bond
is over. However, should you be dissatisfied
STILL am quite ready to give you any satisfaction
you may wish for. \ The officer made 10 reply
but held out his band, and begged him to honor
him with his friendship. From that moment an
the above Incident was the basis, and which lasted
70 the day the hlusTions composer died.
