The Shamrock, or small white clover,
is almost universally worn in the hat,
over all Ireland, on St. PatriCk's Day.
The tradition is that when st. Patrick
was preaching the doctrine Of the Trinity
he used this plant as a symbol or illustra-

He Could be Trusted.

Alfred was missing one night abou
sunset. Mother was getting anxious, foi
she always wished him to be home early
A neighbor, coming in, said number Of
boys had gone to the river to swim, and
he thought Alfred was safe enough to be
with them.
"No," said the mother, "he promised
me he would not 90 there without my
leave, and he al,oays keeps his word.
He never told me lie."
But seven o'clock came, then eight, and
mother was still watching and listening
for the step of Alfred but it was half
past eight before his merry shout and
whistle we're heard when he ran into the
gate.
"Confess now," said the neighbor,
"that you have been to the river with the
other boys, and so kept away till late" 3"
How the boys eyes flashed, and the
crimson mounted to his cheeks
"No sir | told my mother | would
nerer 90 there without leave, and do yo,,
think I ,could tell a lie ? l helped James
to find the cows which had strayed in the
woods. and did not think I should be so
late"
James, coming up the street just then,
came in to tell us "he was afraid we had
been alarmed; they had been so far in
the woods it made them late in getting
home"
The neighbor, turning to the mother as
he took his hat to go home, said 81 think
there is comfort in store for you, madam.
Such boy as that will make a noble
man."

The Horse and the ZapilOtes.

The other doubt is sadder, and more
painful still. As we went down by rail
from Paso del Macho to Vera Cruz, we
looked from the window of what had been
Maximilan's imperial car, upon a scene
by the roadside which struck me nearer
to the heart, and filled my soul with sad.
ness and doubt more utterly unfathoma-
bic.
A poor, old steed- who may have
borne Santa Anna and his fortunes in his
day. or better served the world by draw
ing dump-cart for a grading party on
the railroad track-had been turned out
to die. The sapilotes,-which are among
the institutions ofthe country. Watching
from afar, saw deaths signal in his glaz-
ing eye and wheeling down from their
airy heights, came trooping from all
directions to the coming feast.
AS each detachment arrived. they
settled on the ground in successive circles
around the horse, gave one searching look
to make sure that they had made no mis-
take as to the ultimate result, then drew
in their heads, bumped their shoulders,
and went to sleep, satisfied that in heavens
own time, grim death would do his per-
feet work, when they would pick the bones
Of the animal before them as clean as u
squirrel picks the kernel out Of a nut
They could have finished him there and
then with little effert; but that polite
ness which characterizes every inhabitant
of tropical America, forbade such unseem-
ly haste, and why work for what would
come without labor fthey but waited?
So murmuring "Manana," "poco tiem-
po." and "SaAe hueyo," as is the custom
of the country, they dropped off, one by
one, to sleep and pleasant dreams. The
moribund knew as well as We did what
came for, and read his fate in their skin.
ney, ,expressionless faces, but he was game
to the last. and no rule of politeness bade
him to hurry up with his dying; so he
took his time for it, and showed them ,un-
mistakably, by his looks, that he regard
ed their presence as-to some extent
ill-timed and indelicate, and partaking of
the character Of undue familiarity.
Ahoy "oio chSascu III ehio hiSo i'ho
game Of" freeze out," as we left the sta
tion and passed out of sight. But who
won? Did the zapilotes and beat the
horse at last? Or did he starvc them all
while they waited Or are they still
waiting and watching, he living aud hop
ing and the game bound to 60 on to the
end of time Look upon this picture,
and then on that, and tell me what are
the sufferings Of common humanity to
mine
Reader: l have told you the secret OF
my blighted life. You will now know
why my forehead is permanently wrink-
led my hair turned gray before my time,
aud tendency to grow hump-shouldered
is developing in my frame, when you
meet me upon Broadway or Montgomery
street. A blighted being, harrassed with
doubts which may never be solved, 60
