pensive mood trode hither and yam under
the silent starlight The early dew.drop
glistened on hill top and mountain side.
On the massive brow Of the elder Of the
these youths large drops of perspiration
gathered, while an immense liquid bead
quivered and hung, and finally dropped
from the extreme point of the others Ro-
man nasal protuberance, and, like the snow
flake in the river, was gone forever. The
protracted and painful silence was at last
broken by the younger of the two, who,
flooding the atmosphere with the odor of
cheap perfumery as he Tipped much
used pocket-handkerchief from his heav-
ing breast and mopped his face, sighed
deeply. Then he spoke as follows:
