YEARS. AFTER

never loved him; for awhile
We two were passing friends; and yet
learned to prize the slow, sad smile
Which touched his features when we met;
HE words Of greeting, light and brief,
The clasp his fingers left on mine,
And saw, with vague, anspoken grief,
The signs which marked his life's decline.
And when, awaiting certain doom,
HelV at last, serene and calm,
I often sought his lonesome room
With flowers and words Of friendly balm
Aus when I bathed his aching brow,
DC read. or talked-stiIl all the while
His earnest eyes-they haunt me now
Repaid me with that slow, sad smile.
At last, one day, when gathering shades
Made the sbrisg lsndscap. chill and drear,
he said: 4" Dear friend, the sunshine fades;
To-morrox shall not be here.
:. And when you come you will not see
fhis trembling hand, this thinning face;
So-you were always kind to me-
Grant me, pray, one gift of grace.
= cannot reach you where you stand,
Come closer, while say good-by;
Nay, eloser-let me hold your hand,
And kiss yoC once before de-
All, why that sudden storm of tears =?
lid not love him-wherefore then
would have given ell my years
To bring him back TO life again?
And when, next morn, beside the door,
waited in the soft May rain,
They told me he had gone before,
And had culled my flowers in vain.
All, why, when half a score of years
Across his low, green grave have moved,
Do befew with bitter tears
The grave of one never loved?
We were but casual friends, at best;
A word, a smile, and wac said;
L stood not near his heart, nor guessed
That should grieve if he were dead.
And yet, If on the earth there be
One soul that holds me half so dear
IS his last blessing is to me,
Or his sad memory, year by year.
II viii be all ask or crave,
To smooth my bed or bless my sleep,
Even though the whisper haunt my grave,
- did not love her-wherefore weep"

HOLTALRE AS a LOYER.

"The browning event in Voltaire's
life as lover was the sequel to the
romance of Aurore de Livry. More
than sixty years had elapsed since he
had seen her. She was now over so
years of age, widow, and the only one
of his loves still living. He wrote to
her asking if she would receive him.
The reply being in the affirmative, he
went. A Suisse in uniform, as gor-
geous as upon the former occasion
when Voltaire was refused admittance,
now led him through the magnificent
entrance of the mansion, and ushered
him, breathless with fatigue and emo
ton, into the presence of the Marquise
de Gouvernet. For moment they
stood before each other in silence, when
Voltaire lifted the hand in his to his
lips and kissed it.
"'Ah, mon ami she said with sad
smile, what have we done with our
twenty years p
"ih, how true sighed Voltaire;
zone dies every twenty years. Happy
are those who have lived them! But
in the retrospect neither you nor ],
Marquise, has cause to commiserate
ourselves. My life has been a romance
easy to read but yours, what an elo-
quent and desperate struggle! You
took up the war of the Titans.
"'Alas she replied, I would glad
ly give my mansion, my farms of
Beauce and Bretagne, my diamonds,
and my carriages, with my dear old
Suisse included, to live one more hour
of our beautiful life
"'And 1, responded Voltaire, i
would give my tragedies and my epic
poem, my histories and my stories, all
my past glory, all my rights to live in
posterity, with my Jauteun in the Ac-
ademy included, to take from your lips
only one of the kisses of those days.
"Then they sat down to talk over
their six weeks dream-life, that lay so
far away back in the past, but which
shone through all the mist of more
than half century. Youth, beauty
and passion were dead only the past
was left to them. What a moment in
their lives The Marquise had be-
come devotee, and in the midst of
her old lovers "reminiscences came an
interruption in the shape of a priest.
who lived upon her bounty and dined
at her table. When Voltaire had left,
the priest reproached her for receiving
an anti Christ in her house, while she,
poor soul, anxious to do penance for
the dreadful sin, made the greatest
sacrifice in her power. She sent to
Voltaire the following day his picture,
begging him to offer 'to his niece por-
trait that had been too long time
loved 1t was a few days later, the
Both of May, ITS, that Voltaire died;
the next, the 31st, she followed him
into the dark valley. Who knows but
they made the journey together ?"

EARRINGS.

An unfortunate child died, not long
since, under circumstances which are
worthy the attention of women. About
three weeks previous to her death the
little girl underwent the operation of
having her ears pierced with stocking
needle. After the ears were pierced,
two earrings belonging to her mother
were put in them. A few days later a
blister came behind one ear then the
jaws began to swell worse symptoms
ensued, and in few days she died
The medical evidence was to the effect
that death resulted from exhaustion
consequent upon the intense infiamma-
ton caused by the piercing of the ears,
and the jury rendered verdict'accord-
ingly. OF course, if women choose to
have their ears pierced, it would be
impertinence on the part of man to re-
monstrate against the self-infiicted tor
ture but there can be no harm in sug-
costing that children might be allowed
to reach years of discretion before they
are called upon to follow the example of
their elders and betters in this respect.

brought shame upon it, became the
hapless victim of both the principals,
and was obliged to betray them all to
save his own honor from stigma. His
enemies regard him as q dishonorable
man, who was all along Tilton's adher-
ent, used to entrap Mr.. Beecher, and
who spared the lesser reputation and
sullied the greater. Men at large look
upon Moulton with less interest than
upon the documents he has produced,
and these give a wide range to the
imagination, from the noblest friend
God has raised down to black mailer.
PUBLIC OPINION.
The applause and the gifts of bou-
quets to the two parties in the suit are
so evenly divided that it appears the
judgments of men are also nearly evenly
distributed on this scandal, even in
Brooklyn city. But the great pulpit
Mr.. Beecher has founded, his tenacity
and impressiveness in it, and the I'M
broken phalan1 of its membership In
his support, give not the least of the
touching and wonderful associations of
this encounter before justice.

A MADISON dispatch says Washburn
has compiled a table showing that he
has forty-three members sure, without
counting several doubtful ones who
probably will go for him. He says by
actual computation the members who are
pledged to him represent $4,000 of the
Republicans in the State, while the Car
penter members represent $4,000. Wash
burn forty-three members are two more
than q majority. He says he is absolu
tely sure of these fgures.

Mr.. WAsHBURN and Mr.. Carpenter
have been invited by the Wisconsin
House of Representative to address the
full Legislature on the Louisiana ques-
ton next week Wednesday. The fact
that these gentlemen are candidates for
election to the United States Senate was
distinctly recognized in the giving of the
invitations. The idea of setting up a
seat in the United States Senate as a
prize to be won in debate is new and
childish enough. AS well have a COM
petitive examination, and give the sue
cessful candidate the option of going to
the Senate or taking his prize in money.
If the people of Wisconsin want man
who is only brilliant debate to repre-
sent them in the United States Senate
they cannot do better than to return Mr.
Carpenter. We had thought there were
some other publication far more essen
tial to be taken into the account

If after they have tested the climate and
the country's advantages as place of
