galnish scene, she began with the capricious-
ness of sckly heart, to MARBLE a little plain
tive air. She had an exquisite voice, but on
this occasion it was so simple, SO touching it
breathed forth such soul Of wretclledness,
that drew a crowd, mute and silent, around
her, and melted every one into tears.
The story of one so true and tender, could
not but excite great sympathy in a country
remarkable for enthusiasm. 1t completely
won the heart of brave officer, who paid his
addresses to her, and thought that one so
true to the dead, could not but prove affec-
tionate to the living. She declined his atten-
tons, for her thoughts We're irrevocably en-
crossed by the memory of her former lover
He, however, persisted in his suit. He solicit
ted not her tenderness but her esteem. He
was assisted by her conviction of his worth,
and sense of her own destitute and depend
ent situation, for she was existing OH the kind
ness Of her friends. In word, he at length
succeeded in gaining her hand, though with
the solemn assurance that her heart was ut
terry another's. a<t @
He took her with him to Sicily, hoping that
a change of scene might wear out the remem-
brance of early woes. She was an amiable and
exemplary wife, and made an effort to be
happy one but nothing could cure the silent
and deyouring melancholy that had entered
into her very soul. She wasted away in a
slow but hopeless decline, and at length sunk
into the grave, the victim of broken heart.

AFFECTION OF MONKEYS FOR THEIR DEAD.
One of shooting party, under bantam
tree, killed female monkey, and carried 1t
to his tent, which was soon surrounded BY
forty or fifty of the tribe, who made great
noise, and seemed disposed to attack their ag-
gressor. They retreated when he presented
his fowling piece, the dreadful effect Of which
they had witnessed and appeared perfectly to
understand. The head of the troop, however,
stood his ground, chattering fefociously the
sportsman, who perhaps felt some little de-
gree of conjunction for having killed one Of
the family, did not like TO fire at the creature,
and nothing short of firing would suffice to
drive him off At length he came to the door
Of the tent, and, finding threats Of no avail,
began lamentable moaning, and, by the most
expressive gesture, seemed to beg for the dead
body. II was given to him he took 1t sor-
rowfully in his arms, and bore it away to his
expecting companions. They who were wit
nesses Of this extraordinary scene resolved
never again to fire at one of the monkey race.

POETRY.
A SUNSET Walk.


Purple, gold, and ruby tints
Are fading in the sunless sky,
And pearly, dim, uncertain glnts
Mark one lone star on high.
The cricket's tiny bell is rang,
The last song of the bird is sung.
Far away the din and the fret
The daytime hurry and the strife
The weary toll and sad regret,
Which haunt our daily life,-
Oh, far away these leave me now
With sunsets kisses on my brow.
Leaves which all day idly tost - -- !
Now pause to listen for the night sf
Fast riding with his radiant host,
Der hills of dying light.
Around me falls the hush of prayer,
And DINNER grows the pulseless air.
Peace and love on all descend
Oh, surely in an hour like this,
Kind Heaven seems nearer earth to bend,
70 give one good night kiss,
Fair home-lights, now, the wanderer sees,
Like fire-hies, twinkle through the trees.
Loving ones return to him,
And rosy cheeks with love-like glow;
Fond hopes arise at twilight dim,
In dreams of long ago.
And all the joy sweet memory gives
Touched by the hand of sunset, lives
r. OH tranquil'sunset of the soul, t
When all the jar of earth is past
When storms no longer round us roll,
And heaven il near at last
We know though faint and fail may,
Calm sunset ends the longest day

TIE HABIT OF REApING.

81 have no time to read is the common
complaint, and especially of women, whose
occupations are such as to prevent continuous
book perusals They seem to think, because
they cannot deyotu as much attention to books
as they are compelled to devote to their avo-
cations, that they cannot read anything. But
this is great mistake. 1t isn't the books we
finish at sitting which always do us the
most good. Those we devour in the odd mo-
ments, half dozen pages at a time, often
give more satisfaction, and are more thor
oughly digested than those we make peculi-
ar effort to read. The men who have made
their mark in the world have generally been
the men who have in boyhood formed the hab-
it of reading at every available moment,
whether for five minutes or five hours. SOD
1t is the habit of reading rather than
the time at our command that helps us on the
road to learning Many Of the most cultiya-
ted persons, whose names have been famous
as students, have given only two or three
hours day to their books. If we make use
of spare minutes in the midst Of our work,
and read a little, il but page ora paragraph,
we shall find our brains quickened and cur
toll lightened by just so much increased sat
isfaction as the book gives us. Nothing helps
along the monotonous daily round so much
MS fresh and striking thoughts, ODE consider
ed while our hands are busy. A new idea
from new volume is like oil which reduces
the friction of the machinery of life. What
we remember from brief glimpses into books
often serves AS stimulant toaction, and be-
comes one of the most precious deposits in the
treasury Of our recollection. All knowledge
is made up of small parts, which would seem
Insignificant in themselves, but which taker
together are valuable weapons for the mint
and substantial armor for the soul. T" Reat
anything continuously says DIR. johnson
"and you will be learned" The odd min
utes which we are inclined to waste, IL care
fully availed of for instruction. will, in tn,
long run, make golden hours and golden day
that we shall ever be thankful for. lScriJaer'

BY-GoNE DAys.-Perhaps the most strik-
ing relic of by,gone days to be found in and
around Bound Brook, says the Somerset Mes
senger, is the birthplace Of Hendrick Fisher,
the Samuel Adams of New Jersey, which is
situated on the Raritan river one mile sohtli-
east from the centre of the village. In this
house in 1908, the same year in which his
father whose name was also Hendricks, pur-
chased it, was born the younger Hendrick
Fisher, the man whose name is SO intimately
connected with the history and fortunes Of
America, and with the dearest hopes of the
civilized world. 1t is not known when the
elder Fisher came to America, but he came to
Bound Brook in 1903, and purchased of the
original proprietor, William Dockwra, who
had in the year 1882 purchased tract of land
containing 900 acres, having its face on
the Raritan, south side, and extending
back almost to the mouth of the Mill
stone, three hundred acres of land and the
identical house now in the hands and whichis the
residence Of Abraham Y. Brokaw, Esq. Prob
badly the house had been then built short
Time as it is conjectured that William Dock
wra built it in 1858, the same year in which
Somerset was set off from Mddlesex county
Perhaps the registry Of deeds in the registers
Office at Perth Amboy would give an earlier
I date William Dockwra was a Scotchman
by birth, but for number of years had been
1 a merchant in London. He came to East New
Jersey in 1880, two years previous to his pur-
chase Of the land already mentioned. He was
/ man of wealth and some distinction in the
Colony. He was for some time Register OF
East New Jersey, and was one of the twenty
four proprictors to whom the Duke OF YORK
confirmed the previous sale of the province OF
East New Jersey by giving them new grant.
He was one of the signers of the instrument
whereby the proprietors surrendered their
right of government to the crown, which was
accepted by Queen Anne on the nth day o.
| April, 1902, and then became royal province
and was united to New York under the gov
eminent Of Lord Cornby.

Amethyst who has often contributed

Ponce de Leon sought long and vainly for

tain Of youth in Florida, where the hot pulse
Of tropical life beats away too fast and death

What the eager Spaniard missed So utterly
the placid Quaker came much nearer finding.
Ii the fountain Of youth exists anywhere in
this weary world of ours 1t must be in u Qua
ker meeting -house. How else is it that year
after year the serene faces of the women who
sit in the silence Of the meeting-houses do not
gather new lines If care and shadow Of age?
They grow old they do not grow older
Time softens the brown of their hair to silver
The outlines of youth fab away little but
what they lose in contoari and color is made
up to them IN expression. That, after all, is
the highest beauty 1t is the beauty that

SALMON IN THE DELAwARE

In the course of three or four years we wifi
learn satisfactorily whether 1t is possible to
bring back to the Delaware a species Of
migratory fish once to be found in it's waters.
The earliest English writers, in relation to
Pennsylvania, including WilliamPenn, Thomas
Budd, Robert Turner and others, speak Of
the salmon as fish that might I've found in the
Delaware. Penn says that he had heard that
they were in the river Ii there were such
fish in these waters they long ago disappeared.
But we have the best evidence that in streams
north of us in which salmon were once COM
mon, according to well preserved accounts,
they have disappeared. We also know by
experiment among fish culturists, made OF
late years, that those streams have been re
stocked with this fish, which now come an
nually into these waters, Whether the Della
ware is too far south to be stocked with sal
mon win be demonstrated by experiments nos
already commenced. s' a'
Some time ago salmon eggs were placed II
one of the tributaries of the Delaware, and II
March last Al, 900 moro were Matched above
Easton, under the care Of Thaddeus Norris
tfic well-known fisherman and fish cnlttirist.
The young fry were let loose in good time,
and are probable ere this gone out to sea.
Win they come back again in 1874? This is a
matter which, as the time approaches for the
ascent Of this species of fish in the large rivers
will DO looked for with the utmost solicitude.
