The Souls East Window.
BY JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.

MAN cannot be Gods outlaw If he would,
Nor so abseond him in the caves of sense
But Nature still shall search some crevice out
with messages of splendor from that Source
which, dive he, soar he, battles still and lures.
ms life were british did we not sometimes
nave intimation clear Of wider scope,
Hints of occasion infinite, to keep
The soul alert with noble discomfort
And onward yearnings of unstilled desire
fruitiess, except we now and then OWNED
a mystery of Purpose, cleaning through
The secular confusons of the world,
Whose will we darkly accomplish, doing ours
No man but thinks in himself perceives,
sometimes at walking, in the streets sometimes
Or on the hillside, always unfoEwarned,
grace of being finer than himself,
That beekonsand is gone-a larger life
:. Upon his own impinging, with sNift glimpse
so spacious circles luminous with mind,
To which the ethereal substance of his own
Seems but gross cloud to make that visible,
Touched to sudden glory round the edge.
Who that hath known these visitations feet
Would strive to make them trite and ritual?
I, that still pray at morning and at eve,
Loving those roots that feed us from the past
And prizing more than Plato things I learned
At that best Academe, a mothers knee,
Thrice in my life perhaps have truly prayed,
Thrice, stirred below my conscious self, have fell
That perfect disenthralment which is God,
Nor know which TO hold worst enemy
Him who on speculation's windy waste
Would turn me loose, stript of the raiment warn
BY faith contrived against our nakedness,
Or him who, cruel kind, would fain obscure
With painted saints and paraphrase Of God,
The souls east window Of divine surprise
The Cathedral.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1870-08-10

MAT AND HIS HURKYBACK.-Old Mr.
S'mms had in his employ a man named
Matthew-called Mat for short. When
told to do anything, he always made some
blunder, more or less egregious; and 1t
thing required of him that kept him IN
his situation. One morning Mr.. Simms
summoned him into his presence.
Well, Mat, | want you toatake the bar
row, and 90 down to the iron-monger' s and
get my new grindstone. and hurry back
On arriving at the shop. Mat walked
in and addressed the shopman with
Mr.. Simms sent me for his grindstone
and hurryback sir
There's the stone along side of that
pillow. What else did you say he wanted p
His hurryback, sur
His hurryback :?
I'd like to know what sort of thing
that is-are you sure he said hurrybaek 2
Av eoorse [ am. Sez he to me, Mat
sez he, go down to the iron-monger's and
AK him for my new grindstone and hurry
back and sez [ to meself. what the
duce does be name -
A smile lit up the eountenance of the
shopman, he saw the mans mistake, and
being desirous of running the joke fur
ther, said;
I'll see if l can see anything about it
in the book
He opened the one nearest to him, and
ran his eyes over half a dozen pages
'Ah, here it is = said he, q tell Mr..
Simms that it is not finished yet, but will
be ready IN two or three days
Well, Mat said Mr.. Simms. see
you have got the stone; now tell me how
many blunders you have made
Niver a wun, sur l couldn't bring
the hurryback wild me, sur, because it
wasn't done

L told you to hurry back-meaning to
make haste back and you've made a
blunder as usual and the shopman has
made a fool of you

INFRINGEMENT EXTAoRDINARY.-The
following story is told of pretty well
known gentleman formerly connected with
the Pittsburgh press. This person was in
the habit of taking wee drap too much
at times, and when in the resultant condi-
ton of exhilaration, he was as many are
inclined to liberality and extravaganza
of expenditure to which his sober self was
an utter stranger While on one of his
periodical benders, the fancy of our hero
was struck with the beauty of a certain
pair of vases of rare workmanship and
exquisite finish. With the sentiment, darn
the expense, in his heart and on his lips,
he bought these vases at an immense price
and bore them. hnme, and triumphantly
called on his wife to admire thin. Why
john said she the moment she sch eyes on
them, what induced you TO buy such cost
ly ornaments as these We can't afford to
spend moneyin this way. You will ruin
US, you know you will : and the poor lady
raised her apron to her eyes and began to
cry. The sig ght was too much for our prln-
ter. You are right, Mary he said, you
are right, and am wrong. l see 1t now.
We can't afford these vases it was extrav-
agant in me to buy them. But don't cry
I'll fix it all right So saying he let drive

Up LONG ENoUGH.-The steamer s.,
commanded by Captain S, exploded sew
eral years ago with terrible effect, and
burned TO the waters edge. Captain s.
was blown into the air, alghting near a
floating cotton bale, upon which he foated
uninjured. but much blackened and mud
died. Arriving at village several miles
below, to which the news of the disaster
had preceded him, be was accosted by the
editor of the village paper, with whom he
was well acquainted, and eager for an
item.
Il say is the S. blown up?'
Yes
Was Captain s. killed p
No, I am Captain s.
The thunder you are! How high were
you blownP
High enough to think of every mean
thing l ever did in my life before [ came
down here.
The other started on run for his office.
The paper was about going to press, and
not wishing to omit the item of intelligence
two weeks off, wrote as follows:
The steamer s. has burst her boiler, as
we learn from Captain S who says he was
up long enough to think of every mean
thing he ever did in his life before he lit.
We suppose he was up about three months ,

ALL FOR LovE.-The Prince of Schles-
wig Holstein has petitioned the King of
Prussia to reduce him to the rank of Count,
and take from him the title, the privileges.
aud the restrictions ofprincely rank. There
is woman in the case. and the story cul-
inmates in this pleasant bit of personal
gossip The Prince has only recently re-
turned from India where he has been sew
eral years engaged in scientific researches.
Savan-like, his first thought on reaching
home was his library. which he found in
very dusty, musty, jumbled-up and neglsc-
ted condition He went to work to bring
order out of this literary chaos but soon
found that he must have help. but who was
worthy to touch his beloved hooks In
his perplexity he applied to his steward,
who at first declared that there was nobody
in that out-of-theway place competent to
the task of sorting, classifying and arrang-
ing scientific and classical library; but
at last he bethought himself of his daugh-
ter's governess. the only person likely to
render any service in such a case. The
young lady was sent for, and began work
under the direction of the Prince. who. as
time wore on, discovered in this demure
young person such fund OF versatile knoWl-
edge, combined with real, solid information,
cheerful. good sense, domestic virtues. and
sweet looks. that he came to the conclusion
that at last here was the proper person to
aid him. not only in setting his library to
rights. but also in reducing all the other
tangled-up affairs of his life to order and
harmony But Prince of the blood can
