Agreements.

How many misunderstanding arise
from the loose way in which business
matters are talked over, and then when
each party puts his own construction on
the conversation, the matter is dismissed
by each, with the words All Right,
"All Right" Frequently it turns out
"all wrong" and becomes question
for the lawyers and the courts. More
than three-fourths of the litigation of
the country would be saved, if people
would put down their agreements in
writing. and sign their names to it.
Each word in our language has it's pc
culiar meaning, and memory may. by
the change of its position in sentence,
convey an entirely different idea from
that Intended. When once reduced to
writing ideas are fixed, and expensive
law-suits avoided

SONG OF THE MYSTIC.

I'd q The Poot-Priest Soldier Of the South: j
walk down the Valley of Silence,
Down the dim, yoiceless valley-alsne!
And hear not the fall Of footstcp
Around me-sayc Gods ana my own!
And the hush OF my heart - ~ holy
As hoyers where Angels have flown.
Long ago was | weary of voices
Whose music my heart could not win;
Long ago was j weary of noises
That fretted my soul with their din;
Long ago was | weary of places
Where met but the Human, and Sin.
walked thro' the world with the worldly;
l crayed what the world never gave
And said: In the world, each Ideal,
That shines like IA star on lifr's wave,
is toned on the shores of the Real,
Aud sleeps like dream IN grave.
And still did pine FOR the Perfect,
And still found the False with the True;
1 sought mid the Human for Heaven,
But caught a mere glimpse OF it, blue;
And wept when the clouds Of the Mortal
Vailed even that glimpse from my view.
And toiled on, hcart-tred of the Human;
And l mOaned mid the mazes OF men;
Till knelt long ago al an altar
And heard Voice call me; since then
walked down the Valley Of Silence
That lies Ear beyond mortal ken.
Do you ask what found in the Valley?
'Iis my trysting-place with the divine;
And fell al the feet Of the Holy,
And about me voice said: " BE Mine ~
And then rosc from the depths of my spirit
An echo: " My heart shall be thine"
Do You ask how live in the Valley?
I weep, and dream, and pray;
But my tears are as sweet as the dew-drops
That fall on the roses IN HAY;
And my prayer, like "A perfume from censer,
Aaceudeth go God, night and day.
In the hush Of the Valley of Silence,
dream al. the songs that ] sing;
And the music iiuats down The dim Valley,
T!il each iuds "A word for u wing,
That to men, like the doves Of the Deuge
The message OF Peace they may bring.
But far On the deep there are billows
That never shal break on the beach,
Aud have heard songs in the silence
Gint never shall hoat into speech;
And have had dreams in the Valley
Too lofty for language to reach.
And | have seen thoughts in the Valley
Ah, me. how my spirit was stirred
Aud they wear huiy walls on their faces,
Their footsteps can scarcely I've heard;
They pass through the valley, liks Virgins
Too pure FOR touch Of word.
DO You ASK me the place of the Valley,
Ne hearts that are narrowed by care?
II lieth afar between mountains,
And God and His Angels are there;
And one is the dark mount of sorrow,
And one the bright mountain of Prayer.

NANCY LUCE's TRIBUTE TO HER HEN.
The proprietors of the New England
Marble Works, III this city, have nearly
completed a gravestone for Nancy Luce,
of Tisbury, to be erected in honor of the
hen whose life and death are por-
trayed in the book of poetry issued some
time ago by that eccentric woman. The
inscription on the stone is:
Poor Tweedle Dedel Bebbee Pinky, died
June IL, 1871, at past o'clock in the even
ing, aged years.
Poor dear little heart
Sore broke In her.
/ am left broken-hearted
She wac my own heart within me-
She had more than common wit.
She is taken from the evil To come.

What did you say, dear, breakfast
somehow I've slept too late;
You are very kind, dear Etie,
Go, tell them not % wait.
III dress quick az ever / can,
Ny old hands tremble sore,
And Polly, who used tO help, dear heart
Lies tO'ther side % the door.
Put up the old pipe, deary,
1 couldn't smoke to-day;
I'm sort o. dazed and frightened,
And don't know what 10 say.
It's lonesome in the house, here,
And lonesome out % door
never knew what lonesome meant,
In all my life, before.
The bees go humming, the whole day long
And the first June rose has blown,
And am eighty, dear Lord, to-day,
Too old 10 be left alone

O, precious lips 50 white
For the first sad hours in sixty years,
You were out Of my reach, last night.
You've cut the flower You're very kind.
She rooted IL, last May,
II was only slip pulled the rose,
And threw the stem away;
But she, sweet, thrifty soul, bent down,
And planted IL where she stood.
Dear, maybe the flowers are living, she said,
Asleep, in this bit of wood"

Let the old man have his will,
And wander from porch to garden post

Wander, and long for u sight Of the gate

We had got used 20 each other, dear,
So used 10 each other, you see.
Sixty years, and 40 wise and good,
She made me better man,
From the moment kissed her fair young face,
And our lovers life began.
And seven fine boys she has given me,
And ont of the seven, not one
But the noblest father in all the land
Would be proud 10 call his son.
O, wsll, dear Lord, I'll be patient,
But feel sore broken up;
At eighty years, it's All awesOme thing
To drain such bitter cup.

PLANT TREEs.-The terrible scenes OF

Minnesota it is proposed to plant line

not only furnish some shelter, but would
