"A boat for Alkmaar !" cried he
"And why?"
ITO save your brother" said the other.
"And how? pray you" asked Philip
Schoorl. :
Half an hour ago." said the visitor,
"the Hondsbossche gave way. In an
hour, Lake Flevo and the Zuyder Zee will
be one. In two hours, both will join the
ocean. Do as 1 bid you, and do it with
out loss of time" And he vanished.
That, indeed, was night for Holland.
In peaceful little country villages wearied
men lay down to dream of labors of anoth-
er day; mothers pillowed their little ones
on their arms and rejoiced in their sweet
sleep; nurses watched the uneasy rest of
the sick; evil men awoke to their deeds of
darkness. and went stealthily about
Suddenly distant hum, like the sound
of evening insects round sunny oak -

in distant forest. A strange, cold,
sprayey gale. A fearful shaking and
trembling as of an earthquake. A rum

a few moments struggles, and the village
was blotted out from the world. Between
sunrise and sunset eighty thousand per-
sons went to their last account.
Two houses only stood where the inun-
dation reached; one the castle Of Bred
rode, near bort; one the farm of Jan
Maarsen, at Kamp.
And hundred years after, before
Maarsen's gate, might be seen stone,
with the legend, in old Dutch letters:
''Be not forgetful to entertain strang-
ers; for thereby some have entertained
angels unawares."

An Excuse for Smoking.

genious expedients to conceal the avice
from their master. till one luckless even

Involving each other in vaporssofI their

stood in awful dignity before them. ,,,;a

LOST BY Nor TAKING A Paper

LOST BY Nor TAKING PApER.--Some
time ago gentleman in: :Charlestown was
appointed auditor to distribute the funds
in the hands Of the administrator among
creditors. Notice of the auditor was pub
lished. It 50 happened that few credi-
tors residing in, certain portion, of the
country, who had collected claims to the
amount Of seven or eight hundred dollars
from the neglect Of taking a county paper.
never heard of the audit until after tha re-
port Of the auditor had been confirmed bJ
the court. They then came into town g
inquire about the likelihood Of securing TIE
claims; and called upon an attorney who
examined thu matter andainformed them
that they had forsver lost their money,
and we presume charged them FIVE dollars
for the Information. All this resulted
from being too penufiouis To subscribe f6f
a paper. These gentlemen learned slesa
son that will last them the rest of their
lives, and serve ASA warning to others
who, from the same motives, fail to- take
their county yspaper1 as7E,se p R'.ess

Open the map of Holland. and look
along itswesterp coast. Those dark lines
which you see. dividing the sea from the
land, are the Dunes. And what are the
Dunes The greater part Of Holland lies
lower than the sea. On the great rivers
the keels Of .the, ships fpat above the chin
neys Of the, houses and the frog, in bis
bed of rushes,, can look down on the swal-
low. as she, skins through the air beneath
Therefore. If there were not strong wall
all along the sea coast, the whole country,
pt high tide,s would be swallowed UP by
the waters. And God has so ordered it
that two oftthe things most unlikely to re-
sist any. great. force, should form this wall
sand and grass. Stretching along al
most the whole coast, are the Dunes, or
sandhills, whence Dunkirk, that is, the
Church among the Dunes, takes its name.
They are about thirty or forty feet high +;
and the wind and the waves, if they were
left to themselves, would sweep them away
in an hour. But there is kind of coarse
fibrous grass, called seabent, which dear
" loves the sand, and it is regularly sown
on the Dunes every year. There it grows,
and knots and mats the loose sand togeth-
er; till all that long line of coast from the
Hague, to the Helder is one large piece of
basket work, The sea might dash to
pieces q wall of wood or of stone; such a
barrier as thisiis scarcely to be moved
And very pretty little valleys there are
amoug these same Dunes, and in the
Spring time they are bright with the hare
bell and the heartsease that grow in the
mould Of the dead seabent.
7 said that these Dunes, girdled in the
west of Holland. But there are one or
two gaps in the dam and there the hand
ofman is left to itself. OF these the worst
e at 4 place called the H6hdsbossche, near
the Helder. Here an enormous embank-
ment is raised /; its foundation is of Norwe-
gian, granite; its heart is of clay and sand;
its sea-face is clay, wattled down with
willow twigs. I was told when I was
there, that if the whole of this huge dyke
had been at first made Of gold, it would
have cost less than the repairs have cost
from that time to this.
Now, look at the map of Europe; OF
you will not understand my story.

GEN. ALBERT SIDNEY JOHNSON

To the Editors Of the Louisville Journal:
While rambling through the cemeteries OF
New Orleans recently, I suddenly came upon
the last resting place Of General Albert Sidney
johnson, on whose tomb, pasted upon rough
board, 1 found the following expressive in
scription. Every attempt to discover its au-
thor has been vainly made. Here is the beau
tiful epitaph copied verbatim:
IN MEMORIAM:
Behind this stone is laid,
For a season,
Albert Sidney Johnson,
a General in the army of the Confederate States,
Who fell at Shiloh, Tennessee,
On the sixth day of April, A. D.,
Eighteen hundred and sixty-two:
A man tried in many high offices
And critical enterprises, -t'
And found faithful in all.
His life was one long sacrifice of interest to
conscience; TX
And even that life, on woful Sabbath,
Did he yield as holocaust to his country IS
need:S ,-gt
Not wholly understood was he while he lived;
But in his death, his greatness stands confessed
In a peoples tears. .tias,.
Resolute, moderate, clear OF envy, yet no,
wanting, ''A' -'' ''1<
In that finer ambition which makes men great
and pure.
In his honor-impregnable, s-
In his simplicity, sublime. =, ...g..i
No country e'er had a truer son-no cause a
nobler champions; FL - "i@
No people bolder defender-no principle a
purer victim
Than the dead soldier yF'i.'3''
Who sleeps here -, ..E...e,.s....
The cause for which he perished is lost.
The people for whom he fought are crushed
The hopes in which he trusted are shattered
The flag he loved guides no more the charging
lines; : a. .i3j5asg
But his fame consigned to the keeping of thai
' time, which,
Happily, is not so much the tomb Of Virtue as
its shrine, <
Shall, in years to come fire modest worth te
noble ends. -a:}8h 1tls
In honor, now, our great Captain rests; +,
A bereaved people mourn him; .
Sd Three Commonwealths proudly claim him;
And history shall cherish him
Among those choicer spirits, who, holding theil
conscience unmixed with blame, Il ...t
Have been in all conjunctures, true to them:
selves their country and their God. 7

THE SMACK AT SCHOOL.
BY W. P. PALMER

a district school, not far away,
Mid Berkshire hills one winters day,
, Was humming with its wonted noise
OF three-score mingled girls and boys,
Some few upon their tasks intent,
But more upon furtive mischief bent.
The while the masters downward look
Was fastened on a copy book,
Rose sharp and clear rousing smack
AS 'twere battery of bliss
Let off in one tremendous kiss!
whats that p the startled master cries,
;:"That thir," little imp replies,
"Wath William Willuth, if you pleathe-
4 thaw him kith Thuthannah Peather'
With frown to make statue thrill,
The master thundered .sHither Will ~
Like wretch o'ertaken in his track,
With stolen chattles on his back,
Will hung his head in fear and shame,
And to the awful presence came
A great green, bashful sinpleton,
The butt of all good-natured fun,
With smile suppressed, and birch upraised
