Origin OF a Noted Hymn.

The beautiful hymn, "Abidc will, Me-"
was written by Henry Francis Lytc, Al,
English clergyman, who died at Nice some
years ago. The manner in which it was
composed is thus told in the Christian
Weekly:
1T was the autumn Of 1S47; the gloom
Of winter was already settling upon the
coast and the pomps Of decay tingins the
leaves. The pastor, who was now prepar-
ing to leave the parish, and who seemed
like one already lowering over the verge Of
the grave. determined to speak to his dear
people once more, perhaps for the last time.
lie dragged his atten,,ated form into the
pulpit and delivered his r'rtin: discourse,
willie the great tears rolled down the hardy
faces Of the worshipcrs. lie then admin
istcred the Lords Supper to his spiritual
children. Tired and exhausted, but with
his heart still swelling with emotion, l.c
went home. The old poetic inspiration
came over him, and he wrote the words
and music Of his last song. IIe had prayed
that his last breath might be spent 'swan-
like
80 In song tha. may not de-
and this effort was to prove literal answer
to his prayer.
"Tlc poem composed under these inter-
csting circumstances was the we'll known
hymn chant beginning

Of California:
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2Stl,, 1879.

na, etc.,
SIR: hereby resign my unexpirc,' term
in the Senate Of the United States as
Senator for California-this resignation to
take effect Immediately, SO that the State
Legislature which meets on the first Of
next month may fill the vacancy.
AS my intimate friends in the Senate and
elsewhere we'll know, have long desired to
withdraw from that body, and at the same
time to retire wholly from politics aud
political life. My public duties on both
sides the Continent have demanded of me
and have received SO much attention as to
greatly impair my health and compel me to
neglect my private affairs. The latter
consideration is not controlling one, but
the condition Of my health is such as to
lead me to seriously doubt my strength to
discharge the arluous duties Of Senator
for California.
have deferred carrying out my desire
until the present time, when both objects
may bc accomplished ut once, and when tho
Legislature just about to meet may elect
my successor. Very Respectfully,

How the Lion Wooes His Bride.

Let us first sketch the story of the lion 8
life, beginning with his marriage, which
takes place toward the end of January. lie
has first to seek his wife; but, as the males
! arc far more abundant than the females,
who are often cut of in infancy, it is not
rare to find young lady pestered by the
addresses Of three or four gallants, who
quarrel with the ascerbity of jealous lovers.
II one Of them does not succeed in disabling
or driving away the others, madam, impa-
ticnt and dissatisfied, leads them into the
presence of an old lion, whose roar she has
appreciated at distance. The lovers fly at
him with the temerity Of youth and exas-
peration. The old fellow receives them
with calm assurance, breaks the neck Of the
first with his terrible jaws, smashes the
leg Of the second and tears out the eyes Of
the third. No sooner is the day won and
the field clear than the lion tosses his name
in the air A. lie roars, aud then cruuches by
the side Of the lady. who, as q reward for
his courage, licks his wounds caIcssingly.
When two adult lions arv the rivals the en-.
counter is more serious. An Arab perched
in tree ono night saw lioness followed
by tawny lion with y fnll-grown manc.
She lay down at tho foot Of the tree; the
lion stopped on his path and seemed to list

gr"w'ins Of lion, which was instantly re.

made her husband roar furiously. The dis

he marched toward her as If to force her to

post, roaring defiance at his distant rival.
This continued for about an hour, when q
black lion made his appearance on the
plain. Tho lioncss arose as if to 20 toward
him; but her husband, guessing her iuten-

crouchcl and sprang Oh eacl, other, rolling
on the grass in the embrace Of death. Their
bones cracked, their flesh was torn, their
cries Of rage and agony rent the air, and all

the combat ended, and both warriors were
stretched on the plain, she rose, smelt them,

LADY BLANCHE NURPHY.
A Romance In Real Iifa.
n. Y. Correspondent Chicago Tribune.

= n. 7. Correspondent Chicago Tribune.
You must have seen, in some of the mag
azincs, sprightly rccollections of Europe by
Lady Blanche Murphy. The name seems
somewhat satirical, and there is SO apparent
an incompatibility between Blanche and
Murphy that supposed for some time it
was pseudonym. 1t is genuine, however,
and Lady Blanche is tn daughter Of the
earl Of Ellsimer.
As the story runs, she fell in love with her
fathers organist who rejoiccs in the poetic
patronymic Of Murphy, and he fell in love
with her. The only way for them to avoid
perpetual misery, in their judgment, was to
elope; and clopc they did. This was more
than two years ago; and the earl and his
family were, as may be imagined, exceed
ingly angry and mortified at such mesalli-
ancc. Tho connubial couple sailed for this
country, and settled in New York, where
the husband secured position As organist
in one Of the fashionable churches, while
the wife turned attention to fugitive litcra-
turc.
The earl, it is asserted, has again and
again offered to forgive Lady Blanche, and
restore her to her luxurious home, if she
would consent to leave the marital musi-
clan. With proper spirit and womanl,ood,
she scorns the proposal, and, in spite Of re-
n"nciation and adversely, still adheres to
Murphy. This does NOT sound romantic 7
am aware, though the fact is 80. Lady
Blanche is reported to bc a young, pretty,
interesting, and accomplished blonde, who,
like 'Pauline,' - would rather live upon the
light Of one kind smile from Murphy (this
is, admit, q slight variation from the text
than wear the crown the Bourbon lost.
