The Lace Mania.

American fashion is rcviving the an
cicnt mania for fine and costly laces.
Light, dark, and black silks, and even
ing dresses of every color and shade,
are universally trimmed with it. The
admiration Of this beautiful gossamcr
trimming is like contagious fever, and
attacks all womanhood, from the miss
in her teens to the aged grandma. And
while its use demonstrates the revival
of refined taste, it's eXpcnsivcness is al
ways great. Point d'Aicncon and Chan
tilly laccs are considered the most de
sirabIe, as they are the most costly.
They are light us gossamer, and of a
rich, creamy tint. A New York firm
offer piece of Alien, on lace, eight yards
long and an eighth of II yard III width,
for $1,000. The border is woven III
royal lilies, and is dotted with imperial
bees. Sets of berthcs, ilounccs and
handkcrchicfs range in prices from
81, 900 to 81, 600 Chantilly lace iounccs
cost from 800 to $50 per yard. Gui
pure and Duchess laccs are less cxpen
sive and are extensively used.

BY MRS x. VI. sroppAhD.
From where built the nest for my fret young
In the high chimney of this ancient house
7 saw the household fires burn aud go down,
And know what was and In forever gone
NV dusky, swift-winged hedgelings, flying far
10 seek their mates in clustered caves aud towers,
Would linger not to learn what have learned,
Soaring through air steering over scar.
These single, solitary walls must fade,
But I return, inhabting my nest
little simple bird, which still survives
The noble souls now banished from this hearth
And none are here besides but she who shares
Ny life, and pensiye vigil holds with me-
No longer does she mourn she lives serene;
| see her mothers beauty IN her face,
7 see her fathers quiet pride and power,
The linked traits and traces of her race:
Her brothers dying, like strong sapling trees
Hewn down 10y violent blows prone in dense woods
covered with aged boughs, decaying slow.
She muses. thus: Beauty once more abidcs;
The rude alarm of death, its wild amaze
Is over now. The chance of change has passed;
No doubtful hopes are mine, no restless dread,
No last word to be spoken, kiss to give
And take i'm passions agony and end.
They can not come to me. but in good time
I shall reioin my silent company,
Aud melt among them, as the sunset clouds
Melt in gray spaces of the coming night"
SO she holds dear as this tranquil spot,
And all the flowers that blow, aud maze of green,
The meadows daisy-full or brown and scar;
The shore which bounds the waves love To skim,
Aud dash my purple wings against the breeze.
When breaks the day twittor loud and long,
70 make her rise and watch tue vigorous sun
Come from his sca-bed in the wcltering deep,
And smell the dcwy grass still rank with sleep.
| hover through the twilight round her caves,
Aud dart above, before her, in her path,
TIL, with a smile, she gives me all her mind
Aud IN the deep of night lest she he sad
In slccplcss thought, stir me in my nest,
And murmur AZ murmur To my young;
She makes M answer, but know she hears;
And all the cherished pictures in her thoughts
Grow bright because of me, her swallow friend!

I;eccher's Pcculiarities.

The New York correspondent OF the
Boston Journal writes
Mr. Beecher's colloqrial gifts are
among the clements of his success. He
treats his church like family. He
gives uttcrance to his feelings as he
would ut his own fireside. To him the
pulpit is no more sacred than the pew.
He has none of the conventionalisms OF
his profession. He puts on no austeri-
ty and no outward marks of devotion.
He comes on to his platform, filings
down his hat ON the tloor,
picks up his hymn book, man
ipulates it, as "a mechanic
would IA tool before using it. What
other ministers would say to half-a-
dozen brethren around the pulpit,
Bcecher would say to his whole con
grcgation III the pulpit. I'm the lecture
room he comes into the side door, and
if il is cold stands awhile ovcrthc heater
and tumbles up his hair, washes his
hands in invisible water with his face
to the congregation, mounts his plat
form, and takes his seat With neither
table nor desk between him and the
people. He begins the service abruptly,
without prelude or introduction. He
does not say ''Let us sing" or LET us
praise God" but simply says, "43i "
He sits during the whole perform

during the service. The other Sunday
he undertook to give out his text, but
could not find it. He had made 4

have been embarrassed or confused
Not SO with Mr.. Bcccher. He hunted

A Woman Passing for II Man for Sixteen
Years.

On Monday, at the Manchester county
Police Court, says II Liverpool paper of
IL late date, two men were brought up
in custody, charged with being drunk
and disordcrly. Superintendent Bent
said one of the two men on the dock
was II woman. When arrested ON Sun
day morning both prisoners were re-
spectively attircd i'll male costume.
While they were ut the police station,
witness was struck with the appearance
Of the smaller OF the two, and, after
looking closely ut the prisoner, said,
Why, Won are IL woman" The prison
CT stoutly denied the charge, but
shortly aitcrward, on being closely
pressed, admitted the fact, and
told remarkable story of
her adventures. She said that sixteen
years ago she and her husband were
schoolmastcr and schoOlmistress ut a
national school ut Gloucester. Hen
husband lost his situation through
drinking, and subsequently they both
learned the art al house Painting. Hei
husband made her cut her hair off and
sell it, dress herself rs u man, and &c
about the country with him. She had
worked with men on high buildings in
London without fear of detection. She
had been separated from her husband
for some years, and the other prisoner
was her nephew, and she always passed
us his uncle. The usual penalty of 5s
and cost was inflicted, and the prisoner
went of in her male attire.

4 Good Example Followed.

not ut present revealed his name. Some
time ago u gentleman stated that he
was prepared to expcnd cl5O,OOO in the
erection of luuatic asylum for the
benefit of the lower middle class. He
is now proceeding to carry out that
purpose, and has publicly intimated
that he is prepared to devote to public
and useful purposes II sum equal to
that given by Mr.. Peabody, So soon us
he can satisfy himself as to the best
means of eIiecting this, SO as to do the
greatest public good, and to avoid the
risk of paupcrizing classes who might
not in their present position be eligible
recipients in public opinion for such a
gift.

Bret Harte subordinate experience at
Cambridge, on Thursday last, before Phi
Beta Kappa, is stillthe occasion of much
talk about town He has been roundly
censnred and severely criticised in va
rious quarters, and the opinion seems to
be thai he made sorry failure. But
he has side to the story, strong one,
andEone which ought to be told. His
friends assert that he was outrageously
misled, and singularly treated by the
committee of the society. He was mott
fled of his electlonas poet sometime ago,
and strenuously urged to accept, the
point being dwelt upon that he would
have until midsummer to write it, and
the statement made that Commencement
was late in July, the writer of the note
forgetting, though a Cambridge man,
that the Commencement time had been
changed from July TO June. Bret Harte
accepted, but reluctantly, and after
his acceptance, all communication with
the Committee ceased no effort was
made to correct the misapprehension re-
gsrding the date Of Commencement,
and nothing was told him concerning
the arrangements for the day. A week
oriso before Commencement he began
his poem, having the impression that he
had month before him. Happening
in Boston at the time, he actually learned
when Commencement actually was, and,
as can be imagined was consequently
Immediately in an unenviable state Of
mind. He hurried back TO Newport and
tried, in the few days intervening to
finish his poem, but found it impossible.
So when the day came, the Thursday
after Commencement, he selected what
he considered the best of his unpub-
lished poems and started for Cambridge.
Not being well acquainted about here,
on arriving in Boston he called at
friend and asked, with much concern,
how he was to get to the college, and
what he was to do when he got there
The friend took him out in car
riage; they reached the square just as the
procession was marching over the Green.
The friend caught marshal who hur-
ried after the chief marshal, who got the
chairman of the occasion, Richard ii.
Dana, jr.; the poet and the chairman
we're excitedly introduced, the former
taken into the procession, allowed to
drift into the church, find seat and look
out generally for himself. These were
the auspices under which he delivered
his poem. He did his best, however;
read his lines as loudly as he could,
which was not at all loud, his voice being
very thin and poor; got out of his di-
lemma as easily as possible, and, when
