them, but the simple programme of an
evenings pleasure as skillfully devils
ed now in our public institutions, ap-
peals to them in different way. The
Hight, cheerful music soothes them,
and the animation aronnd awakes their
interest, while the example of others
exercised its influence. Then in ma
ny cases, the patients previous to the
! arrangement OF their reasons, under
stood dancing, and the scene recalls
diml y visions and scenes of the past.
In many instances female or male
face could be seen which illustrated
the deep interest excited even among
the insane by such amusements. The
expression was that of absorbed atten-
ton, with now and then trace of be
wilderment. One could understand,
at a glance the STRUGGLED in the diseas-
ed mind. Charmed away from its de
lusions by the influence of others and
the scene around, it was endeavori6g
to comprehend the true and reasonable
1t was, in fact, as if one were looking
through glass darkly," for insanity
is oftener obscurity of mental visions
as to the relation ofthings than mere
disorder of faculties or one growing
hallucination. Again, here might be
seen a young girl, so evidently pleas
ed with her surroundings that she
could not help but laugh gleefully now
and then, becoming almost sane in the
naturalness of her feelings The dam
cling was kept up to quite late hour
and when it terminated everybody
seemed in excellent humor, and the
patients were escorted, smiling to their
qnarters.-St. Louis Republican.

the baby on the bed and assist me in
pushing this wardrobe against the
d )or."
Rose did as she was told, in awe
stricken silence. 1t is wonderful to
consider how much there is in person
al magnetism. With another sort of
companion, she would have been as
foolish and hysterical as the most of
her kind but strengthened, .overpow-
cred as it were, by the superior mind
and superior courage of her mistress,
she was hushed into dumb acquics-
cence. The wardrobe to which Mrs.
Somers alluded was heavy mahoga-
ny piece of furniture, which, at any
other time, she and Rose could no
more have moved than they could
have moved the Table Rock !; but now
they pushed it, without much difficult
ty, before the door, and erected tol-
cradle barricade. Then the mistress,
all unheeding her wounded arms, took
the sheet for which she had called, and
after tying another one to it, set about
twisting them intt rope. While she
did this, she listened attentively for
some sound in the other room, but all
was still as possible. After the last
one Of those frantic curses bad died
away into silence, there was not so
much as the slightest movement to be
heard. A hope flashed across her that
Peters might accept his. defeat, and
desist from any iurther effort to reach
her but then instinct negatived this,
and instinct also babe her beware of
his very 9uietude. 1t BODIED mischief,
she felt sure. The cunning of the
mailman was at wolk against her, and
might spring mine at any moment.
The mere thought gave tenfold strength
and strength to her fingers. In few
minutes all was ready for her pur-
pose. The sheet was tightly twisted,
and fastened securely to the post of
the bed, which stood just beside the
window. Then she turned to Rose,
and bade her go down.
There is no danger, if you keep a
firm hold and slip to the ground" she
said, seeing the girl hesitate. "When
you are safe, Will draw up the cord,
and lower the baby to you You must
take her and fly-fy for your life, re-
member-to town"

A Sterling Old Poem.

Who shall judge man from his manners
Who shall know him by his dress
Paupers may be fit for princes,
Princes fit for something less,
Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thoughts and feelings
Satin vest can do no more.
There are streams of crystal nectar
Ever flowing out of stone;
There are purple beds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and overthrown,
God, who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves and prospers you and me,
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man upraised above his fellows,
Oft forgets his fellows then,
Master-rules-lord remember
That your meanest hinds are men
Men of labor, men of feeling,
Men of thoughts, aud men of fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine
Tn n mans ennobbling name.
There are foam-embroidered oceans,
Here are little wood-clad rills !;
There are feeble, inch-high sapplings,
There are cedars on the hills
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prospers you and me;
For to him all vain distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
Of a nations wealth and fame;
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fatted on the same;
BY the sweat of others foreheads,
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Nainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with ioveliness and light;
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is Ssunny right.
God. whose worldwide voice is singing
Boundless love to yOu and me,
Links oppression. with its titles,
But rs pebbles in the sea.
