The Excursion.
BY LATHAM D. URN E R.

BY NATHAN. D. URNER-
Again, as 1 thread these rustic ways
Here in the heart of the summer land,
am gently reminded of other days
BY objects rising on either hand;
But mostly yon bowery isle mid-stream,
Whose thin cape splits the blue river apart,
Recalls quaint feast, like feast in dream,
But dear alike to my mind and heart.
There were only six of us; Ralph and Nell, .st.
And Curtis and Rose Getty cousins the LAST,
And gray-eyed Florence, whose deep heart Well
was her lover, and it's long since past;
But jollier party never filled craft 49,
AS we rounded that point by the cedar glade;
The sourest ascetic could not but have laughed
At the highly romantic appearance we made.
Roses and .ionquils on bright heads in crowns,
Wreaths of them, too, from the gunwales ahoat,
Boughs of fresh foliage in wild fesoons
From stem to stern of the painted boat;
But under them all on cheek and lip A@
Rosebuds more tempting, and laugh and song,
Hands splashing over, and oar-blades a-dip,
And beauty and bliss, as drifted along.
We reached the island How well recall
The girls pretty screams as we helped them to
How Rose wet her feet and Flo.'s fiilnsy shawl
Like cloud vailed my she gave me her
hand!
Then the neat little lunch in the legended grot,
With the white cloth spread by the spring at its
mouth. "t.
The jests I remember, the toasts I've forgot, p
And the wind pouring in from the clouds in the
south #& -fH
Then we made them a swing from grapevine

Read poems, told tales, with romp now and
then,
Played croQuet q while, had rubber of whist,
And talked with the echo that haunts the glen.
Then in couples apart, betrothed lovers should,
We strayed, to repeat the old tale ever young.
How well I remember the bench in the wood, ~.
Between the two oaks, and who sat there SO long
Then weary but blithe, at the days dim close,
We drifted at peace in the starlight a-down, p.
And saw with regret, as the sickle-moon rose, s.
The faint-twinklng lights of our trim little town
For our hearts were so full and cur souls were sc

A New Remedy for Consumption.
Paris Letter to the New York Times.


A new remedy for consumption has
been founder at least, the doctors
think so at this momentum the trans
fusion of the blood of animals. In
France, TRANSMISSION has always been
performed from man to man; but,
while it has been found easy to get
men to give up their blood for money,
while enjoying the eclat Of al expert
ment in a crowded amphitheater, amid
the applause of hundreds Of students,
good Samaritans are rare IN a private
life. A medical man was unable to
find any one ready to sell his life's
blood to young lady until he made a
romantic appeal and in one case Of an
aged man it was quite impossible. But
DR.. o. .Hesse, of st. Petersburg, saws
that human blood is not ABSOLUTELY nee
essary. He has performed the op-
GRAFTON of TRANSMISSION thirty-one times.
In sixteen Of his cases defibrin-
ated blood was employed-a practice
generally condemned. In the remain
ing fifteen cases the blood of sheep
was used. There was one death: in
three other cases there was no percep-
t1ble Improvement; in the remaining
eleven cases there was a marked i'm
provement throughout, and in some
cases perfect cures. DR.. Hess hopes
to prove that he can cure pulmonary
phthisis in this way. DR.. Gede1liees
has tried the TRANSMISSION of sleeps
blood in two cases. In one there was
great improvement, and in the other a
complete cure

IT appears that, although there are
about eleven millions horses in Russia,
the number available for ordinary road
and street traffic, and for employment
in the army, is only 100000. This is
owing to the fact that on the average,
each family requires one horse for ag-
ricultural purposes, and in this way
10, 100000 horses are absorbed. AS
about 5000 would be required if the
Russian army were put on an active
footing, measures are to be taken to
have supply to fall back upon, so that
injury may not be caused to agriculture
al pursuits by the withdrawal of the
horses for those purposes.

It was bright day in spring. The
fruit trees were all blossoming. It was
beautiful out of doors but in her
suburban home, Rose Winner sat sadly
at the window admiring nothing. Every
now and then vehicles passed down the
road. So many of them holding two
people-man and woman-husband and
wife she made of them. But her hus-
band never took her to drive, much as
he knew she loved the exercise, and
greatly as he knew she missed the long
walks her girlhood had rejoiced in.
That she would have forgiven, for car
riage hire is expensive, and they were
not rich /; but to be abandoned as she
had been--it was terrible. And now
she had not even seen him for two days.
He had told her that he should stay in
town, and ne had. Yes, this was deser-
tlon indeed, and now she knew all. Her
woman instinct had come to aer aid.
He had fallen in love with some one
else. Oh, could she but follow him
watch hlm-conyict him of this, and
then die!
just then gay little turnout whirl-
ed up the road and stopped at the gate.
Out Of it tripped Mr.. Waldo. He bow
ed with an air. There were times when
Mr.. Waldo, who had been abroad, be-
came intensely French. He had a
lingering idea that the manner suited
the present occasion, and he touched
the brim of his hat to his breast. and

I asked the King if he devoted his
leisure hours entirely to this branch
of study.
'No, no" said he, eagerly; to my
birds. Will you see my aViary2"
J There was no refusing, of course.
And so 1 followed His Majests into
the court yard, where he showed me
a truly superb ayiary.
I expressed my surprise, and he
said, with genuine pride cleaning
from his eyes:
"Is it not beautifulP It cost me a
great deal of money-almOst more
than I was able to afford.
And now he showed me his pets
the famous five trained magpies.
He took of his hat and placed five
bright brass rings on his head. The
magpies took them from him, one
after another, and then he Whistled,
and they brought them back to-
where they had got them. They all
so placed themseles, at his command
upon his head, forming a sort Of

cote. Another curiosity was a tame
vulture, of gigantic size, captured
near the site of ancient Delphia. At
the Kings call, the terrible creature
placed itself with beth legs on his
shoulders. 1 instinctively shrank
back from the vulture, but the King
said:
"Never mind, old Miltiades is very
good-natured. BE viii now shake
hands with you"
Sure enough, Miltiades grasped
my shrinking hand with an antique
grip worthy of his namesake, and
with an exceedingly ludicrous air Of
gravity.
The King then ordered him to re-
tire, but the bird was evidently re-
luctant. The King ordered q piece
of meat to be brought to Miltiades,
who thereupon withdrew, with an IN
mistakable air of satisfaction, while
His Majesty proudly told me that he |
alone had trained the bird to all this. |
We ventured into the palace, and |
the King kindly showed me the most |
apartments, chatting all
the while about his parents, and his
brothers and sisters. He expressed
his regrets that naughty little Thyra,
as called his younger sister, was al
so to be msrried to horrible, foggy
which he seemed to hold in
special adherence.

AN OLD YEAR SONG
BIZ OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

BIZ OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.
As through the forest, disarrayed
By chill November, late strayed,
A lonely minstrel of the wood
Was singing to the solitude;
Iloyed thy music, thus I said,
When DER thy perch the leaves were spread;
Sweet was thy song, bat sweeter now
Thy carol on the leaaess bough.
Sing, little bird! thy note shall cheer
The sadness of the dying year.
When viOlets pranked the earth with blue
And morning filed their cups with dew,
Thy slender voice with ripping trin
The budding April bowers would hH,
Nor pass its joyous tones away
When April rounded into May;
Thy life shall hail no second dawn.
Sing, little birdl the spring is gone
And I remember-wen day
Thy full-blown roundelay,
And when behind broidered screen,
Some holy maiden sings unseen;
With answering notes the woodland rung,
And every tree-top found tongue.
How deep the shaded the grove how faIrs So
Sing, little bird the woods are bare!
But now the summers chant is done
And mute the choral antiphon;
The birds have left the shivering pines
To fit among the trelised vines,
Or fan the air with scented plumes
Among the love sick orange blooms,
And thou art here, alone-alone-
Sing, little birdI the rest have flown.
The enow has capped yon distant hill,
At morn the running brook win still,
From driven herds the clouds that rise
Are like the smoke of sacrifice,
Ere long the frozen sod shall mock
The ploughshares turned to stubborn rock,
The brswling streams shall soon be dumb
Sing, little birdI the rest have come.
Fast, fast the lengthening shadows creep,
The songless fowls are half asleep,
The air grows chill, the setting sun
May leave thee ere thy song is done,
The pulse that warns thy breast grow cold,
Thy secret die with thee, untold;
The lingering sunset still Is bright
SING little birdt twill soon be night

HYMN FOR A LITTLE CHILD.

A little flame that burneth bright,
Within the world to glow;
Wherever may go.
God make my life little flower,
That giYeth JOY to all;
Content to bloom in native bower,
Although its place be small.
Sod make my life little song,
That eomfortsth the sad;
That helpeth others to be strong,
And makes the singer glad.
Coo make my life little staff,
Whereon the weak may rast;

Nay serve my nsighbor best.

OF tenderness and praises
OF faith, that never wa1etb dim.

ALIvELY SHAKE Up.

It would have taken several hours
to reach the city II a straight march.
It was so far away that you could on
ly see one ofits church steeples, and
you know the city Is on rising ground
at that. But Joe obeyed orders. He
carried line after line of works at the
point of bayonet, but the city seem
ed as far off as ever. About sundown
Kautz's cavalry formed a junction
with him. Kautz reported that he
had assaulted the works at different
places, and found them well manned.
| He had been repulsed on every side.
A strong force was already massing in
front of Hawley, and common pru.
dence dictated s. return to camp. It
was late at night when the troops
reached their quarters. Joe sat down
without going to bed-his newspaper
life had made him a sort Of q night
owI-and wrote out his official report,
sending it to Butler as soOn as it
was finished. Next morning an or
der came to the tent, and said that
Gen. Butler wanted to see Gen.
Hawley Immediately. Irode up to
Buffers headquarters with Joe. Joe
got off his horse and went inside. l
remained without. I could hear
them at it inside Butler was roar
ing ct Joe, and browbeating him as
though he were a witness in a rape
case. Every once in while Butler
would shout, you say in your report
40 and so.' Hawley would answer,
you misquote my report; I say no
such thing. Then Butler would
swear and talk about the Major Gen
erals he had removed. For a long
time Joe kept his temper. Then the
; lie direct was given. 1t was to much.
Joe went for Benjamin. He caught
him by the coat collar, and shook the
stufing out Of him. 1 was thinking
about going in when Joe appeared at
the door of the tent. He was as calm
