In the Pines.
BY REV. T. HEMPsTEAD.


Through T the dark-haired shadows, miles miles
10 the North extend the fragrant aisles:
Gleam the royal lines
Of the Pines
waving their diadems of youth immortal
Der arch and oriel yauIt and 5or,a and column
Inc t"lhght stealing, subtle, still and solemn,
1ntertwines
With the pines
Green as when Columbus sailed INTO +bo s,,nsat
Soft is the floor I tread count me the ages
That DER the rocks have crept, o babbIi9a sages
Since here, Gods regal signs.
Rose the pines.
Fighting the tempest, challenging the thunder
No answer, save this one perpetual rpurmur
That rolls from dying summer round to Summer,
Shaking the columbines
In the pines
That flare and tremble on the lodges messy.
When the strange orchis close along the ground
Push two palms of satin glistening round
Like Dryad shines
Through the pines
That slender thyrsus hung with odorous torches.
0, sad it is the woods to wander through,
And feel that unseen steps your feet pursue,
Where evening shines
Through the pines
whose signs are counting over your lost Edens.
Eyes from these dusky arches droop on me.
The Happy Gates the Sapnhre Walls I see
Where the red sun declines
Through the pines
Lodging IN all their bows his amber arrows.
The gentle April comes-anemones
Spring in her track, with golden clouds of bees
And spicy ferns and vines
And whispering pines
Shall render these bare hills green Hymettus.
Our Monthly.

Welcome Of the Japanese Embassy to
RGSfon
BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES

BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.
We welcome you, Lords of the Land of the Sun,
The voice of the many sounds feebly through one :;
All woUld 'twere a voice of more musical tone
But the dog star is here and the song birds have
flown.
And what can sing that can cheat you of smiles
Ye heralds of peace from the Orient isles?
If only the Jubilee-Why did you wait
You are Welceme, but oh you're little too late!
We have greeted our brothers of ireland and France
Round the fiddle OF Strauss we have joined in the
dance.
We have lagered Herr Saro that fne-looking man.
And glorifed Godfrey, whose name it IS Dan.
What pity we've missed it and you've missed it
We had day ready and waiting for you;
We'd have shown you-provided, of course, you had
You'd have heard-no, you wouldn't, because it was
dumb.
And then the great organ the chorus's shout!
Like the mixture tetotaers call sc Cold without -
A mingling of elements, strong but not sweet;
And the drum, just referred to- that couldn't be
beat"
The shrines of our pilgrims not like your own,
Where white Fusiyama lifts proudly its cone
<The snow-mantled mountains see on the fan
That cools our hot cheeks with breeze from Japan)
But ours the wide temple where worship is free
AS bHe WILL OF Une prairie. the wave OF the sea,
You may build your altar wherever you will,
For the roof of that temple is you still.
One dome overarches the star-spangled shore;
You may enter the Popes or the Puritan's door,
Or pass with the Buddhist his gateway of bronze,
For priest is but man, be he bishop or bonze.
And the lessons we teach with the sword and the
pen,
Is to all of Gods children, s' We also are men!
II you wrong we smart, if you prick we bleed,
1t you love us, no quarrel with color or creed ~
enough, but little too loud
To be sure, there is always bit of
When we choose our Tycoon, and especially now;
What party he's Of and what vote he shall throw?
White is getting so black and blacks getting SO
white,
Republic rat, Dem-ican-can get em right
You'll take it all calnlly-we want you to see
What peaceable fight such contest can be
And of one thing be certain, however it ends
You will find that our voters have chosen your
friends.
If the horse that stands sadded is first in the race
You viii greet your old friend with the weed in his
face
And if the white hat and the White House agree,
You'll find FL. G. really as loving as he.
But oh, what pity-once more must say
That could not have joined in Japanese day !"
A chorus of thousands; all singing in tune
God bless the Mikadoi Long live the Tycoon!
The Lord OF the Mountain looks down from his
crest,
AZ the banner of morning unfurls in the West
The Eagle was also the friend of the Sun;
You welcome THE song of the cage-bird is
done.

Fight between Il Mink and n Rat.
From the Jackson (Mich) News.


An Interesting exhibition of natural his
tory was witnessed at Michigan Centre q
few evenings since, by gentleman who
related the circumstance to us. While
lingering around the mill at that place,
which is at present shut down, he saw y
number of rats scudding over the floor of
the dry water shoot, and almost Immediate
ly a large mink made his appearance
and ''went for" the rat with the longest
tail, the one that got into the hole last,
and lengthening out, weasel-like, until he
seemed to be nearly two-feet- long; he
pursued the varmint," following with
ease through every hole aud crack he
entered. Our informant stood and
watched the maneuyers of both pursued
and purSuer, until they were out Of sight,
when he thought he should see no more,
but in a few minutes the mink appeared,
dragging al enormous rodent by the nape
OF the neck, and made off toward the rIv>
er. When the sandy beach was reached
and the rat saw that he was doomed, he
made desperate struggle and tore him
self loose, when, as if conscious that he
stood no chance with his enemy in a
o'"ISh' run dCIoSS tL6 open space Oe-
tween the river and the mill, he turned on
his assailant and prepared to sell his life
his life as dearly as possible. The fight
that ensued was Ole of exciting interest
from its very novelty. The rat in his des-
peration seemed almost a match for his
long-bodied, willy antagonist, and for a
few minutes they both scratched gravel"
to a lively tune. Had the battle-ground
been further from the water the termination
might have boen more doubtful, but the
mink, drawing closer to the waters edge,
and waiting d favorable opportunity rather
than make Il direct onslaught, a sudden
change of position and splash soon told
that the conflict was ended, and the last
seen of them the mink was dragging his
dead game to seme watery retreat beneath
the willows.

On certain day in 1858, n young man

large hardware store in Boston and ask

one oi the propsietors, inquired If he
had ever worked at the business. He
had not. What had he been doing !?
Studying law at Cambridge. Where
did he belong? His friends lived in
Maryland.
The firm were not in need of help, and
the services of the applicant were civilly
declined. On the following day he adj

he feared he had not made himself fully

penalty OF utter disiaherilance and ban

and rs he must paddle his owu canoe in

Mr.. Butler engaged him at S4OO a year,
and gave him certain duties to perform
Next morning, the young man. who

walked in from Cambridge with his din

to work. He kept steadily at this for a
year, doing all he was told to do, and
more besides for his comrades, OF whom
there were more than sixty. finding him
able and willing, sci him to all the menial
tasks of the establishment, until the pro.
prietors discovered and stopped the inn
position.
Al the end of the year Johns salary
was increased 500, and he named en-
early day for his wedding. When that
day came, Mr.. Butler gave him new

Among all the merchants and trades

During the second year of his services
he received Il letter from his sisters, who
were nj school in Brooklyn, asking him
to get leave to make them a short visit
He did So, and returned To his duties.
