A child's dear eyes are looking lovingly
From underneath tnatch o. tangled hair.
Perhaps you do not heed the velvet touch

tight;
You do not prize the blessing over much;
You almost are too tired to pray to-nignt.

This restless, curly head from on your breast
This lisping tongue that chatters constantly;

And meier would nestle in your palm again;

SILENCE.

Whatever speech there be in words,
In silence there is equal speech,
Melodious # as songs of birds
What wisdom may not silence teach
No heart. when oveIfull, may reach
The solace silence brings-tbroush words
Nor eouls, when welded each to each.
Find music like it-even from BIRDS.
There is a silence fills the skv;
Out of it music breaks like rain;
We teem with rapture-that goes by
And then we fall back on our pain.
An August silence lies OH plain.
Lies on the woods-the heart rolls higa.
Anon we hear the Iumbling rain
Almost profanely it goes by.
Let silence, handmade Of onr thought,
Sit by US under branching trees,
Golden, with riches little sought
Patches of sunshine fall through these
We robe our eouls in melodies
That are net heard but felt; thus taught,
We rise up to invisible seas
Where deeper silence heaven hath wrought,
It hath DO iscords-as the voice,
Nor falsehoods-as by language shed,
Take silence as the golden choice
OF all the living, from the dead;
In speech let only truth be said,
Then will all salient souls rejoice
And earth not given stones for bread,
In silence find expressive voice. H.

tomb, which was wide enough to accommo-
date his daughters coffin and himself, and
closing the door by the wire thereto at-
taehed, he solemnly proceeded in the dark
ness to fssten it within. The bar of iron
he had provided was placed across the
framework, and by means of the trunk ham
die and wire thereto attached he fastened
the door as best he could. These prelim-
inaries completed, the devoted, or as some
will say, demented father placed his
head on the brick pillow previously pro-
vided, and putting the fatal vial to his lips,
drained it to the dregs.
Then, in darkness ana in doubt, haunted
by strange memories and the stranger spec
tres of . grave uncertainty, by strange
hopes and stranger fears, he awaited ss
calmly as he could that change which men
call death.
For a while the blood shudderngly
coursed his veins, as if it dreaded dissolu
ton. Faint and fainter it sought the
sources of life, and faint and fainter it re-
treated. At length shadows appeared
which assumed spectral forms. The narrow
tomb spread out, away, away, into illimita-
bic space, and then-the lamp expired.
That night Mrs. Rupert awaited till
late hour the return of her husband. and
as he came not she pondered the signla-
canoe of his parting words IN they became
prophetic of his fate. When morning
dawned she set out on a sad journey to the
cemetery and for time found no traces OF
her husbands presence there, except 10 the
trees and shrubs he had lately planted.
A she was about to leave, however, she
noticed that the wooden door ci the tomb
did not fit as closely as it previously had
done, one corner being slightly PRESSED out
by small fragment OF brick. By iurther
investigation she ascertained that tbs
screws had been removed and the holes
they occupied we're filled with mortar. She
then took hold OF the projecting portion OF
the door and drawing it out as tar as pos
sible, formed an opening through which
portion of the interior was rendereds vlsl-
BILE. To her the disclosure was appalling,
The dead face of her husband appeared
like spectre through the crevice and she
fell fainting TO the earth. How long she
remained unconscious she WAS unable t.
saw, but when at length her senses returned
she sought the sexton and informed him OF
the discovery she had made.
1t is scarcely necessary to add that the
facts of this strange suicide-the strang est
on record-are authentic. Sylvester Ru-
pert is no fictitious character; ne lived and
died az here related. His extreme love for
his children was at once his weakness and
his strength. 1t destroyed the rounded
fullness Of what might have been useful
manhood, even while it made him brave to
do and die for those he dearly loved. His
faults eprang from pateInal love, as gen
tie as it was extreme. and even his de ath,
10 effonOfh n
his devotion.
Let all good people, all at least who
know the frailties of the flesh, and the mys-
FERROUS kinship of our virtues and our
vices, pray that the All-Fsther kindly
Judge the last sad act of Sylvester Rupert.

tanned, he directed his steps for the last
time to Greenwood Cemetery. AS his tomb
was IN one of the least frequented portions
Of that "city of the SILENT" he was undis-
turbed in his solemn mortuary work. First,
he opened the tomb in the usual manner,
and that done, he unscrewed the lid from
his dau ghter's coffin, and scattered over the
corpse the fresh flowers he had gathered
sweets to the sweet-decay to the decaying!
He then carefully screwed the trunk handle
to the inner side of the tombs wooden door,
and clio sing the portal, walked calmly about
the ce metery till twilight dropped her cur
tain, and the heavens above were "fretted
with golden fires"
The cemetery gates were closed. The
last funeral train had returned to the city
when the solitary wanderer, dreaming
strange dreams-the dreams of q man
about to plunge into q tathomless abyss
turned his steps to the tomb where all he
had held dear on earth was buried. There,
with calm yet desperate resolve, he in
tended to seek a retreat from the cares and
sorrows of this life.
No eye was upon him but that of the ALL
seeing, as calmly he proceeded to his fearful
task. With his faithful screwdriver he
opened the door of the dark chamber, then,
throwing away the screws, he filled up the
holes they had occupied with mortar. This
was q measure of precautioa, intended to
delude suspicion when quest for him might
be made on the morrow, His CeliberafA in
tent was to disappear and leave no sign
to anticipate death By the management of
his own funeral services!
Taking of his coat, he rolled it around a
brick, in order to make pillow for his

At length summer came. and Rupert,
with his wife and child, moved from Algiers
to a small house in the First Municipal
District of New Orleans. He still worked
presented itself, but the great delight of his
life was to DO with bis little Lizzie, to stroll
with her through unfrequented streets, and
play with her at his own humble home.
Having no other companionship the child
soon acquired those peculiarities known in
domestic circles as ''old fashioned" Only in
her beauty and her innocence was she like
other children. Her conversation was that
of q little woman rather than q child of
such tender years. She began to think her
fathers thoughts-to be to him more than
child as he was to her more than a father.
The intercourse between them was of un.
questioning trust and perfect love-as de-
void of eeltishuess as are the ministratlons
of the angelic hosts.
That the mother also loved her child can
not be doubted, but hers was the love of
obligation rather than of passionate devo.
ton. She would labor bravely to furnish
comforts for the little ono whom heaven
had entrusted to her cSre, but there was no
warmth in her maternal caress-no graft
tude to heaven for having placed upon her
mothers duties and afforded her moth
er's opportunities. Her motherhood lacked
the spirituality which in the really devoted
mother elevstes the feeling above mere ami.
NAL instinct. and engrafts upon it some
thing which is not ''of the earth earthly"
Possibly her GOODNESS was in part assumed
as rebuke to the abnormal affection her
husband bestowed upon . child which was
no more his than hers. She regarded his

MOUNTAIN HUSBANDMAN.

MR.. MAULDIN, whose card will be
found in our Livestock Directory, is one OF
Montaia's foremost breeders. Having made
a speciality of raising horses he has devoted
every possible energy to the business calcu-
lated to insure success. He was first to in
troduce the Percneron and Norman stock
into the Territory, importing only the best
blood of America. The chief of his studu.
Louis Phillip. was imported from Perche,
France, and is as fine an animal of this type
as fancy could draw. The experiment ofin-
Producing, this family in this country was
regarded as hazardous since it was doubted
If the cross between these and our common
California horses would prove satisfactory.
But Mr.. NJ. is more than pleased with his
success, and only asks the public to call and
examine for themselves. He has a large
ranch situated in the midst of Beaverhead
valley, a few miles above the Point of Rocks.
and his stock consists of between six and
eight hundred head. Persons DESTROYS of
purchasing horses to do labor Or for breed
ing purposes, will do we'll to address or Wis
