THE BASH Full LOVER.

John Patterson was driving his
venerable horse slowly 41omeward
from the little village of Briarton.
They were passing the low-lying farm
of Nathan Wynne, and John, with
out daring for the life of him to turn
his head, rolled his great black eyes
toward the substantial stone farm
house in the hope of catching a
glimpse of Kitty, the farms comely
daughter, But though John kept
bis eyes turned in their sockets till
his head ached fearfully, he saw no.
thing of Kitty, ET1NA ~
John was desperately in loVe.witb
Kitty W ynhe and had been for many
a day, and yet dared not tell her so.
Tell her that he loved her and ask
her to marry him? Why, he would
not so much as look at her when
there was any danger of his being
caught at-it for the world, and sim
ply because he could not, for it was
Johns misfortune to be excessively
bashful. He generally made out to
bow TO her when he met her, but
even that always brought great
lump into his throat and tuned his
face the colo of peony.
As John pass Nsd over little knoll
and out of sight C'f the house, the
farmers great orch 'aFd-the trees
ready to break down under their
weight of ripe fruit-was before him
"What q while that mi, Ter Kept
me waiting for my grist, I'm a'
hungry as a bear. / must ha We
pocketful of those yellow beau, Ves
to eat on my way home" Hr7
And with this John drew rein OH
his horse, scaled the fence and struck
out in bee line for his faverite tree.
He knew aswell as FARMER Wine,
did, and in fact every man and bow,
around knew, just where the best an
pies were, to be found, for Nathan
was not one of those men whom
large and small boys of predatory
habits designate as a "stingy Old
hunks" His fruit was as free to all
as the water In the little brook whioh
divided the orchard by It's never
ceasing flow.
John had filed his pockets, and
was about to retrace his steps to the

The OLD FARM GATE.
By EUGENE ]. HALL.


The oil farm gate hangs, sagging down,
On rusty hinges, bent and bro gn;
lis ln!ch is gone, and, here and there,
l. shows rude traces of repair.
That old farm gate has seen, each year,
The blossoms bloom and disappear
The brigh;-green leaves of Spring unfold,
And lurn to aBiumn's red aud gold.
The children have upon il clung,
And, in ana out, with rapture swung.
When their young hearts were good and
pure,
When hope was fair and faith WAS sure.
Beside that gate, have lovers true
Told the old story always new;
Have made their vows; have dreamed of
bliss,
And sealed each promise with a kiss.
The old farm lie has opened wide
To welcome home the new-m made bride,
When lilacs bloOmed, and locusts fair
With their sweet fragrance filled the air.
That gate, with rusty weight and chain,
Has closed upon the solemn train
That bore her lifeless form away,
Upon dreary autumn day.
The lichens gray and mossrS green
Upon its rotten posts are seen
Initials, carved with youthful skill,
Long years ago, are.On it still.
Yet dear Ia me above all things,
by Tcasun N The thoughts it brings,
Is ihal 'old.5ate, now saggiug down,
On rusty b inges, bent and brown.

Why Mr.. Lands WAS NOT Re
MovED.-President Grant has not
only a nice appreciation of hdmor,
but on occasion is apt at repsrtee.
During his recent vacation at Long
Branch he was called to Washington
onopublic business, and while there
was handed for signature several
commissions of postmasters. There
were also presented to him a num-
Der of petitions, among them one
from citizens of Vineland, New
Jersey, for the removal of Mr.. Land
is from the, postmastership. Mr.. L.,
it will be remembered, is the gentle
man who in an informal and i'm
promptu manner "promoted" a small
globe of lead into the brain of Mr..
Carruth, the editor of the Vineland
paper. The President asked,
..Is there any irregularity in Mr..
Landis's accounts?'
"Not any," replied the pleasant
voiced Postmaster-General.
Is Cne ONCE wen cOnQucCedI
"No complaint on that score"
t'Intemperate habits?'
Nothing of the kind charged"
"What is the objection?''
''The petitioners say he is rather
obnoxious, and that a change would
be satisfactory"
"Well," replied the President,
with the slightest possible twinkle
at the P. NJ. g., che doesn't appear
to have done any thing but shoot an
editor, and I don't see how l can re-
move him on that"
The papers remain on file in the
archives of the republic

from his lair like Hottentot from
His hut, and right before Kits eyes,
tOoP The faithful dog began to wag
his tail and whine with renewed an
imation, and John thought the gun
must be coming surely. Life was
sweeter to him now, since hearing
what Kitty had said of himself, than
ever before, and, creeping to the
opening, he began the getting-out
process,
Kitty, who was peering anxiously
in, saw that "the creature" was NOV
ing-that it was coming toward her
land giving a spasmodic little
scream she sank helplessly to the
ground, and covered her face with
her apron.
Kitty's distress made John for the
moment forget that he was the most
bashful man alive, and surssely the
arms which Kitty felt encircling her
waist were not those of wild beast.
Knowing this, it did not need great
amount of courage to enable her to
uncover her face and see that the
great eyes which had so frightened
her belonged to John Patterson.
It was strange that neither she
nor John, during the half hour they
tarried together under the apple-tree,
thought of Hetty or the gun she had
gone to bring. Perhaps neither
would have remembered Hett's
i'nerYe" in connection with the use
Of that weapon again had not that
young lady herself two years later
reminded a certain happy bride of
the incident, and informed them that
she knew all the time that John was
in the hogshead, as she saw him put
himself there, and that her part of
the conversation under the apple
tree was indulged in solely with a
view to encourage the bashful lover
to propose.
Mrs. John Patterson scolded her
cousin-bride-maid for her duplicity,
but for all that it was plain to be seen
she was not angry, especially since
Hetty had thatvery day acknowledge
ed that she was proud to class her
Cousins handsome husband among
her friends. ~ Y. Weekly.
