HOW 1T HAPPENED.
by MRS. WILKINSON.

Reader, would you like to know
how it happened that l became the
wife of George Arnold, the ricl
banker? Well, will tell you. We
were very poor at home-that is, as
the world goes we would have been
considered so. My father lived on
a very small farm-working hard
as our scant income would allow
but little outside help Inside there
was none, as / was both hOusekcep.
er and mistress, and, strange to say,
was equally coutented and happy,
| had no mother, but loved my
kind father dearly, and his encour'
aging "You are a treasure, Halle" "
was all the reward l asked. From
him / received the better part OF
my cducation--his having been far
above his station in life,--and from
him / could receive instruction
which it would have been impossi-
BILE to obtain in the district school
which attended. Accomplish
ments of a superficial nature | cared
but little for, but prided myself up
on my practical and thorough
knowledge of everything pertaining
to household affairs. My bread
was the whitest $50 Aunt Susy said)
in the neighborhood-my butter the
sweetest,--and then such pastry
you can never know what a mack it
is to make nice pastry, dear reader,
unless you, too, have been domesti-
Gated, as / was. Well in the man
ufacturing of tarts and pies, no one
could turn a more skillful hand than
myself. / used to sing all day long
at my work and never grew weary
as some would have done of my
cares.
We were to have a "fair" in B,
about four miles away, and Eremi-
ums were offered for the best made
bread, butter, cheese, &c, as well as
other articles of domestic manufac-
ture. Now / had been working
busily-all my spare time for the
last three months-on q patch
work" Quilt, and had just taken the
last stitch, when Aunt Susy camein
and insisted upon my sending it, as
well as a large roll of my golden
butter, which | had that morning
worked over and hidden away in
the coolest corner of the cellar
This / at last consented to, and
Aunt Susy tucked in loaf Of my
new-made bread besides and would
you believe it? / took the premi-
um on the whole three!
"Well, child, didn't tell youso p
and Aunt Susy's sunny face peered
in at the sitting room window,
where l was arranging the little
white curtains and looping them
back with wreaths of myrtle. "Yes
knew it all along, and now ! have
a bit of news for you. There is
young gentleman, pale as a "water
Iily," az our house, who wants
country board, with the best of

looking in by the rude opening
which served as a window, saw 4
man whom he Immediately recOg.
nized as Old Brown. His whlskers
aad hair we're not dyed as when q
horse contractor, but wore their
natural color. His sleeves were
rolled up, showing a pair Of arms
shriyeled and skinny, but still ex-
hibiting indications of great mus.
cular strength. He entered the cab
in and had an interview with
the strange man. There was no
furniture in the cabin except a rude
bench, a pine table and a gas stove,
and the only decoration on the
walls was file of the New York
Tribune. He seemed to be well
posted regarding the practical events
of the day. He said if Andy John.

nor there. especially here.
He said further that things were
working, and in a few years more
the white man Of this country would
be reduced to his proper level.
l was greatly interested in the
story, and putting it with the nara
tive l had received from the man
who acted as clerk for the horse
contractor alluded to, | was certain
that the lone occupant of the cabin
amid The solitude Of John Browns
Tract and the horse contractor were
one and the same person, and that
this person lVaS no other than Old
John BroWni
In order to satisfy myself about
the matter, l accompanied the man
the next morning to the cabin, but
it was empty. Old John, alarmed
by the appearance of visitor the
day before, had folded his tent, like
the old Arab that he was, land had

He had blown up his gas stove

ment Of a note addressed to Gerritt

All the old men sad'ning saidl
And the young men Mildred Miriam
She so beautiful-is dead"
ut is darling Mildred Miriam"
Said the fearful village girls
"Cut the waxen white camelias
For her bosom and her curls."
'lt is lovely Mildred Miriam"
Every mothers heart made moan
"Soothe, oh God, the stricken mother,
Spare, oh spare, 10 us our Own!'
at is pretty Mildred Miriam"
Said the children, sobbing sOre,--
"She will never stOop to kits US
In the school path any more"

That twas but a step between her
And the heights Of angelhOod"
"Itis thine own Mildred Miriam,
o, my bitter heart" / said,
"HencefOtth, thine the voice of weeping,-
1t were better TO be dead"
Out across the spotless snow fields
Ring the merry bells aloud,
Back from sunset-gilded hill-sides
Echo's gleeful answers crowd.
just one year tonight has vanished
Since the solemn kneling said
To the valley and the village:
"Mildred Miriam is dead"
Who will think of Mildred Miriam,
List'ning to Ae joyous call?
Who will SPEAK Of Mildred Miriam
In the joyous festal hall?
Old men, sitting by their firesides,
Thinking of their own young days,
Have forgotten her who cheered them
By her winsome looks and ways.
Young men, gazing upon rose-lips
Famed by thrilling daughters breath,
Think not of the lips so silent
In the quiet grace of death;
And the thoughtless village maidens
Sing aloud and laugh outright,
And with waxen white camelias
Star their braided locks tonight;
And each mOther-heart exulting
Over girlish grace and bloom,
Thinks not how one stitch childless,
Weeping, in a silent room.
And the merry little children,
In their holiday attire,
With their peals of ringing laughter
Answer that which shakes the spire.
Fen the needy, not forgotten
In the universal cheer, .
Think not of the one who helped them
With free white hand last year.
But, alb bitter heart, this ringing
Is knell to thee instead;
Life is blank, and joy is withered--
Mildred Miriam is dead. ANON.

"a TALE OF vE."-Under this
heading, a poetical genius gets of
the following, which is at least sug-
gestive to a certain class:
Two maids were walking in the grove
(They both were growing old),
The one to tell a tale of love,
The other to be told.
"He is not rich" +" the elder said,
"Nor handsome nor high-born;
The man whom ] propose to wed
Most other girls would seorn."
"What is he, then? you make me fear"
The maiden's tears fell fast;
"He was the first to offer dear,
And he may be the last"
