The Owls Book.

The owl wrote q book to prove
that the sun was not full Of light,
but that the moon was much more
luminous; that the whole world had
been mistaken about it, and that the
whole world was wrong and the
owl alone was right.

eyes may be large, but they are so
formed they cannot receive the

The November Meteors.

According to the wisdom Of those
who are in the habit of reading the
stars, last year was to be the period
ic return of great showers Of mete-
ors, or shooting stars. II they fail
ed last year, they we're to make
theirappearance this year, and about
this time in the year AS there
wasn't much Of a shower last year,
astronomers have arranged the pro-
gramme for this year, as follows:
On this side of the Atlantic, and
in Philadelphia, the maximum of
the meteoric display may be at
about half-past two o'clock a. NJ,
on Thursday, the 14th. The stream
Of meteors ought, therefore, to COM
mence at about one o'clock A. NJ,
and continue until four. Allowing
one hour difference OF time for ev-
cry fifteen degrees westward, the ap,
pearances will be probably at their
h light in Charleston at 2 10, and be
visible in the city of Mexico about
midnight. In New York, on the
other hand, they may be at their
height at 2 :35, Quebec and Boston,
2:45, and in Cincinnati about the
same time Gin. Gazette. t0.

| The young man turned his face
toward the window to hide few
stray tears which came into his
eyes. The father looked steadily
into his secretary, as il It contained
something of unusual interest AZ
ter not unwelcOme silence he turn
ed to the young man and said :
"You have acted honorably in this
matter. You shall see my daughter
all you please. hear that you are
a worthy, industrious young man,
and l prefer such an one for a son
to any dissolUte snob. ] am sorry
your education has been so much
neglected. But it is not too late to
remedy that matter. / will pay
your wages regularly to your mo-
ther, and send You to school for
a year or two. After you get a
good foundation laid will take
you into my business; and if you
bear yourself in q worthy manner,
one of these days my daughter shall
be your wife. You may quit work
at once"
Our readers can imagine the scene
and the joy that followed this speech
Of wise and kind father, far better
than we can describe them. The
young man has just finished years
course at school, where he has
made wonderful progress. The IA
ther seems to be as proud Of him
as he well can be; and he has found
that lite in his new mansion on the
banks Of the Hudson, with an ac.
complished daughter who cannot
sufficiently express her gratitude
for his kindness, and the occasional
visits of a noble minded young
man who is working his way up in
the world, is only sweet foretaste
of elysium. If other rich fathers
would follow his example there
would be fewer elepements and far
less misery than at present, and a
great many happy hearts and hap
pier homes.

For the Herald
EIOPED.

How often in looking over the
columns of newspapers, we see ar
ticles headed with the word "Elop-
ed" This single word within itself
contains a wide meaning. 1t is
more commonly applied to a woman
who clandestinely leaves her home,
or the place where she is bound by
duty, and fees with her lover. 1t
not only implies that she has linked
| her life and fortune with those OF
her lover, but it further declares
that she stole away from home and
| friends, in order to wed the only
being she longed to. call husband.
And it further suggests that her
friends were opposed to her marry
ing, else there would have been no
necessity for resorting to such a
romantic way of getting married.
Elopements are becoming quite
numerous in the present day, and
as they are always spoken of in
connection with the lady, the i'm
preston is made that it isa scheme
Of her own planning, and if there
Is any suffering, that she alone suf-
fers. Indeed the poet says,
5i ''Love and elope as women do.p
However this may be, we must say
that we've never heard of an olope-
mcnt without some man being i'm
plicated in the affair. yf
While many run off because their
friends are OPPOSED to them marry
ing, Others seem to think it quite
romantic, and prefer some excuse
for elopipg. But in nine cases out
of ten, when their true condition
bursts upon them, they find them
selves wrecked upon the rocks, and
their cherished hopes of happiness
forever gone. taeml ai
The young seem to take SO many
steps without one single thought of
the future; neither do they Judge.
from the past, and the experience
6fiaothers. If they would pause
and reflect, they would soon see
where the same path had led others.
The impulsiye girl is wooed and
won; but the one to whom she has
given her virgin heart is forbidden
to marry her. Nothing, however,
can stop the course Of love, Prep
arations are made for an elopement.
The night is set and as the shades
of evening begin to thicken, the
young girls pulse quickens, for she
knows that the appointed hour is
near. She sits alone in her cozy
room, wrapped in deep meditationi
a thousand thoughts chase each
other through her anxious mind;
