The Two Armies.
BY o. W. HOLMES.
As lifo's unending column pours,
Two marshaled hosts are seen
Two armies on the trampled shores
That death flows back between.
Onemarohes to the drum beat-roll
The wide .mouthed clarion's bray,
And bears upon crimson scroll,
"Our glory is to slay.''
One moves in silence by the stream.
With sad yet watchful eyes;
Calm as the patient planets gieam
That walks the clouded skies.
Along n front no sabres shine,
No blood-red pennons wave;
It's banners bear the single line,
"Uur duty il to save."
For those no death-bed's lingering shade
Al honor's trumpet call;
With knitted brow and lifted blade
In glory's arms they fall.

Littleton Farmers, club.

What method shall be adopted to in
duce young men to stay on the farm
B. S. Hagar thought the subject one of
the most important which the club had
discussed this winter. There is no sad
der sight to see than an old couple left
alone upon the farm, after bringing up
a large family of children; he thought
one reason there was such distaste for
the farm by young men was that so few
farmers spoke encouragingly of their
business. Farmers should talk over
their plans of the management of the
farm with their children; interest them
by setting apart piece of land for
their own use farmers should act as
though they had confidence in their
business, by investing capital in it, and
not scrape every cent they can from the
farm, and invest in bank stocks and
bonds, and go to the city twice a year
to draw their dividends and reinvest,
thereby giving the idea to their chill
dren that the city is the best place to
get money. Farmers should labor less
hours for day, and devote more for
leisure and mental improvement; they
should study to make home and the
farm attractive, instead of investing
every dollar which could be scraped
from the farm in another business they
should adorn and beautify the surround
ings of the house by pictures upon its
walls, by musical instruments, at which
the children should receive instruc-
tions; by useful and interesting books
and papers the tables should always
be set in neat and tasteful manner,
with clean cover and bright crockery,
with the food well preparl d and invit-
ingly arranged; everything about the
building and barn should betoken order
and thrift. He believed that farming
is paying and the most independent
business there is.-BostOn CttttiVator.

The Russian Winter Palace.

The home of the Russian imperial
family from October to June, every
year, is the winter palace. The i'm
mense building has frontage of more
than seven hundred feet, and is large
enough to lodge six thousand persons.
A curious story is told how, some time
ago, the forty-three watchmen stationed
along the roofs of this palace built huts
under the shelter of the chimney-stacks
to protect themselves from the inclem-
ency of the weather, and how after a
while, being lonely, they brought
thither their wives and children, and
the little colony prospeTed, and hens,
and geese, and goats, and swine were
gradually introduced into the premises.
All might have gone on very prosper
ously for an indefinite time, but unfor-
tunately COW was taken up, and she
became so uneasy that the czar learned
the whole affair, and the colony was
dispersed. All the arrangements of the
winter palace show great wealth, con-
summate skill and exquisite taste. The
suits of apartments occupied by the
empress and by Alexander, the present
heir-apparent, and his family, are fitted
up with great beauty and appropriate
ness. The children's nursery is one of
the most interesting rooms in the whole
palace, containing little furniture, but
a good supply of toys of every descrip-
ton. A room fitted up as a study, and
which was appropriated to the crown
prince and the Grand Duke Alexis in
their boyhood, contains firearms,
swords, military accoUtrements and
models of all kinds. A huge model
of an iron-clad ship of war, completely
and beautifully rugged, occupies awhole
side of the page-room. Everything
indicates the wisdom and care bestowed
in the education of the sons.

be used / do not doubt. When men
come in from physical work, hungry,
tired-with the feeling that they have
earned an hour or two of ease by many
hours of labor-they are apt to claim
the right to allow their minds to rest
as well as their limbs. Who does not
know how very much this is the case at
home, even among young men and wo-
men in our towns, who cannot plead the
excuse of real bodily fatigue? That it
should be so is pity of pities, not on
the score chiefly of information lost or
of ignorance perpet1ated; but because
the power of doing that which should
of our declining years perishes from
desuetude, and cannot be renewed when
age has come upon us. But / think
that this folly is hardly more general
in the Australian bush than in English
cities. There are books to be read, and
the young squatter, when the evening
comes upon him, has no other recrea-
ton to entice him. He has no club, no
billiard table, no public house which
he can frequent. Balls and festivities
are very rare. He probably marries
early and lives the life of a young pa
triarch, lord of everything around him,
and master of every man he meets on
his days ride OF course there are
many who have risen to this from low
er things-who have become squatters
without an early education, who have
been butchers, drovers, or perhaps
shepherds themselves, That they
should not be acquainted with books is
a matter of course. They have lacked
the practice in youth of which I have
just spoken. But among those who
have had the advantage of early nur-
ture, and have been taught to handle
books Familiarity when young, 1 think
that reading is at least as customary.as
it was with young men in London. The
authors found most popular were GER
tainly Shakespeare, Dickens, and Ma
caulay. would back the chance of
finding Macaulay's essays at station
against any book in the language, ex-
cept Shakespeare. To have a Shakes
peare is point of honor with every
man who owns book at all, whether
he reads it or leaves it unread. -Antho-

"Gentle Spring. .

For real sweet, pretty thing, done
up in lavender and sprinkled with Vic
toria Regia, the following is the very
prettiest that has vet appeared
Spring is certainly awake to the bust
ness of the year-tearful April has
shaken winter from her lap, and though
the old man fingers, we are safe In con-
graduating ourselves that their frosty
dallianee is over The sun ereeps higher
in the early morning, lying on the bed
quilt with warmer color, and lighting
a stream of golden atoms in its path
from window to>wall. Outside the sky
has made itself new dress, with enough
left over for the blue birds, and on its
breast are lying heecy cirri, the white
clothed children of the storm clouds
that are gone. Spring, with dainty foot
and ankle, steps lightly over the golden
line that parts the seasons. She shivefs
little, glancing backward at the snow
and ice, and the big black rains; then
smiles ahead at the soft air full of filter
ed gold, the fragrance of flowers and of
new-mown hay. She is in her laughing
childhood, and fills her green apron
with yellow cows1ip and pale anet1oties,
and holds the buttercups under her chin
to see if she loves butter, and pulls the
daisy petals with Glove me" "1ove
me not. The streams get out of bed
right foot foremost, and 90 down to the
business of the sea, laughing all the way
The angle-worms wriggle out of the up
turned earth, and perch and pickerel
flash from shadowinto lights, at the drop
of baited beck. The birds get out their
summer dresses, and each brake and
copse bursts into sudden song The
pigeon pliers a rainbow to mix with the
dull gray of his breast, the wood-thrush
paints CLEAN of silver on his neck, the
cedar bird fecks his yellow wings with
scarlet and dreams of red-checked cher
ries, and the oriole sports the livery of
Satan near the woodland pools and
lights the forest with spots of singing
| flame.

DriftWood.

The driftwood is alwsys full of sug-
gestions-a broken oar a bit of spar
with a ragged end of rope yarn attach
ed a section of a mast hurriedly chop
ped, telling of a tragedy too well known
on the awful yea; water-worn buoy,
or flakes of rich brown bark, which
have been peacefully hOated down the
rivers of Maine and ont on the wide
sea, to land at last here, and gladden.
fresides so remote from the deep green
wood where they grew; pine cones with,
their spicy fragrance yet lingering about
them apples, green spruce twigs, a
single, with some carpenters half-ob-
liberated calculations penciled upon it !;
a child's roughly carved boat drowned
butterflies, beetles, birds dead boughs
of ragged fir trees completely draped
with the long, shining ribbon grass that
grows in blackish water near river
mouths. The last, after lying awhile IN
the wind and sun, present a weird APP
pearance, for the narrow ribbons are
dried and bleached as white as chalk,
and shiver and shudder with every wind
that blows. 1t used to be a geal de-
light to hold such a bough aloft, and
watch all the long, delicate pennons,
and streamers fly trembling out on the
breeze. Beyond high-water mark all
things in the course Of time take a uni
form gray color from the weather /;
wood, shells, stones, deposited by some
great tide or storm, and left undisturbed
for months. chOcolate-cOlored bark and
yellow shingle and gray stone are not to
be distinguished one from another ex-
cept by their shape. OF course all
white things grow winter, and shells
already colorless become as pure as
snow. Sometimes the slabs and blocks
of wood that float ashore have drifted
so long that they are waterlogged, and
covered with rich growth of MOSES,
barnacles, and wOndrous sea creatures.
Sometimes they are completely riddled
by the phOlas, and the hardest shells
are pierced smoothly through and
through by these soft worms. But as
child was never without apprehension
when examining the drift, for 1 feared
to find some too dreadful token of dis
aster After the steamer Bohemian was
wrecked (off Halifax, l think few
years ago, bales of her costly cargo of
silks and rich stuffs, and pieces of the
wreck, were strewn along the coast even
to Cape Ann and upon Rye Beach,
among other things, two boots came on
shore. They were not mates, and each
contained q human foot. That must
have been a grewsome discovery to him
who picked them up.-M-S. Celia

Honey-bees by Mail.
st. Louis Globe

A strange question is now before the
post-office department awaiting a de-
cision from the Postmaster General. A
man In Massachusetts has invented
cage composed of wood and wire net
ting to send honey-bee3 through the
mails. The trap is q block of wood
about six inches long and two inches
wide by an inch deep; in this three
large holes are bored nearly through,
and the under side is covered with q
fine wire netting. Seven bees, includ-
ing q queen-bee, are placed in each
compartment, and are introduced
through hole in the side of the block,
which is plugged up by a piece of
sponge soaked in honey. The post
masters and clerks object to these pack
ages, for the alleged reason that the
honey soaks through the paper placed
over the holes, and daubs other mail
matter in contact, and besides, as one
postmaster complained, the clerks in
his office did not set through examining
and studying the continuance until the
bees stung every one of them, and, in
showing them how it was made and
how to handle it without injury, the
blasted things stung him, too" Acting
Assistant Postmaster General Mari,
several wears since, decided that these
packages could not be admitted to the
mails, upon the ground that they in
jured other mail matter but Gen. B.
f. Butler, as attorney for the inventor,
appealed the case to the Postmaster
General, and the latter in now deliber-
ating what disposition shall be made of
the matter
