THE LITTLE BLACK.EI ED REBEL

BY WILL CARLETON,
Doy drove into the city, his wagon loaded down
with food to feed the people of the British gov.
erned town,
And the little black'eyed rebel, so cunning and
so sly
Was watching for his coming from the corner Of
her eye.
His face looked broad and honest, his hands were
brown and tough,
The clothes he'wore upon him were homespun,
coarse and rough
But one there was who watched him. who long
time fingered nigh,
And cast at him sweet glances from the corner of
her eye.
He droveup to the market, he waited In theline-
His apples and potatoes were fresh and fair and
fine;
But long and long he waited, and no one came to
buy,
Save the black-eyed rebel watching from the
corner of her eye.
Now, who will buy my apples2" he shouted
long and loud;
And who wants my pOtatoes?" he repeated to
tne CrOWdi
But from all the people round him came no word
of reply
Save the black eyed rebel, answering from the
corner of her eye.
Fer she knew that meath the lining of the coat he
wore that day
We're long letters from the husbands and the
fathers far away,
Who were fighting for the freedom that they meant
to gain or die;
And tear, like silver, glistened in the corner of
her eye.
But the treasures-hOw to get them? crept the
question through her mind
Since keen enemies were watching for what
prizes they might find;
Had she paused awhile and pondered, with a
pretty little sigh;
Then resolve crept through her features, and q
shrewdness fired her eye,
So she resolutely walked up to the wagon old and
red
May have dozen apples for kiss :" she
sweetly said
And the brown face flushed to scarlet, for the boy
was somewhat shy,
And he saw her laughing at him from the corner
of h9reye
" You may have them all for nothing, and more
if you want" quoth he
II will have them, my good fellow but can pay
for them" said she;
And she clambered on the wagon, minding not
who all were by,
With laugh of reckless romping in the corner of
her eye.
Clinging round his brawny neck, she clasped her
fingers white and small
And then whispered "Quick the letters thrust
them underneath my shawl
Carry back again this package, and be sure that
you are spry!"
And she sweetly smiled d'upon him from the corner
of her eye,
Loud the motley crowd were laughing at the
strange. ungirlish freak,
And the boy was scared and painting, and SC
dashed he could not speak,
And Miss, have good apples" bolder lad did
cry;
But she answered "No, thank you" from the
corner of her eye.
With the news of loved ones absent to the deaI
friends they would greet,
Searching them who murmured for them, swift
she glded through the street,
There is nothing worth the doing that 1t does
not pay to try"
Thought the little black eyed rebel, with atwinkle
in her eye

HEAT OF THE MOONS SURFACE

One of the latest and most remarkable
teachings of astronomical science is, that
the moon, when full, is so intensely hot
that no creature known to us could long
endure contact with her heated surface.
The reasoning in this case is that the sur
face of the moon is exposed during the
long lunar day, lasting fortnight of our
terrestrial time, to the rays of sun as
powerful as that which gives us our daily
heat; and, without an atmosphere to
temper the suns heat as ours does-not,
indeed, by impeding the passage of the
solar rays, bnt by bearing aloft the cloud
veil which the sun raises from our oceans
the moons surface must become in
tensely hot long before the middle of the
lunar day. Undoubtedly the want of an
atmosphere causes the moons heat to be
rapidly radiated away into space.
1t is the earth's atmosphere which
causes a steady heat to prevail on the
surface; and at the SUBMITS of lofty
mountains where the atmosphere is in
tense, yet so rapidly does the heat pass
away that SHOWS crown forever the
mountain heights. Yet, although the
moons heat must pass away even more
rapidly, this does not prevent the heat
ing of the moons actual surface. Accor-
dinghy, Herschell has pointed out, as a
fact beyond doubt, the moons surface
must be heated at lunar mid-day-or
rather, at the time of lunar nidheat, cor
responding to about two o'clock in our
afternoon-to degree probably surpass-
ing the heat of boiling water.

AMERICAN WHEAT FOR ALL THE WORLD,
California has 2,500,0O0 acres of wheat
this year. and expects yield of $4,000.
900 bushels. The sale of agricultural
implements and sacks is immense, the
export trade still refusing to ship wheat
in bulk. 1t is said that London under.
writers are requiring the Baltic ship mas.
ters to take their cargoes partly in sacks
and that the general tendency OF the
maritime practice is against bulk ship.

seem to be vanity in that case.

UNDER GROUND FORESTS IN THE
THAMES VALLEY.

An interesting geological discovery,
as we learn from Nature, was recently
made during excavation for New tidal
basin at the Surry Commercial Docks,
London. On penetrating some six feet
below the surface, the workmen every
where came across sube erantcan forest
bed, consisting of peat with trunks of
trees, for the most part still standing
erect. All are of species still inhabiting
Great Britain; the oak, alder, and willow
are apparently most abundant. The trees
are not mineralized, but retain their
vegetable character, except that they are
thoroughly saturated with water. In the
peat are found bones of the great fossil
OK. Fresh water shells are also found
No doubt is entertained that the bed thus
exposed is continuation of the old
buried forest which has been brought to
light at various other localities on both
sides of the Thames. In each case the
forest bed is found buried beneath the
marsh clay, showing that the land has
sunk below the tidal level sincethe forest
Aourished."

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY
APPROPRIATE TO DECORATION DAY

BY the flow of the inland river,
Whence the fleets Of iron have fed,
Where the blades of the grave-grass quive
Asleep are the ranks of the dead -
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the one, the Blue,
Under the other, the Gray.
Those in the robings of glory,
These In the gloom OF defeat
All with the battle blood cory,
In the dusk of eternity meet
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the laurel, the Blue,
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence of sorrowful hours,
The desolate meurners go,
Lovingly, laden with flowers,
Alike for the friend and the foe:-
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day
Under the roses, the Blue,
Under the lillies, the Gray.
So, with an equal splendor,
The morning sun raysfall,
With touch impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all -
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Broidered with gold. the Blue.
Mellowed with gold, the Gray.
So, when the summer calleth,
On forest and field of grain,
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip of the rain -
Under the sod and the dew
Waiting the judgment day;
Wet with the rain, the Blue,
Wet with the rain the Gray.
Sadly. but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done;
In the storm of the years that are fading
No braver battle was won:-
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day,
Under the blossom, the Blue,
Under the garlands, the Gray.

ONE of the strangest stories that ever
beguied a winters night was that of the
disappearance of stone house in London
while its owners were journeying in the
Holy Land. This could scarcely happen
in these days of telegraph and steam
Neighbors who saw the great gate taken
away, the furniture removed, and every
brick and stone carried off in broad day
light never imagined the workmen were
robbers, and so did not interfere But
that strange things happen in New York
as well as London, was demonstrated be-
yond a doubt this spring. On that part
of Fifth avenue which faces Central
Park, an expensive stone front house in
nearly unoccupied block, was rented
by snowy man calling himself Capt.
-. 1t was furnished elegantly and thor
oughly by some down town upholsterers
pictures, bronzes, &c, were added, great
hampers of wines and provisions were
brought, an ice man, baker, butcher,
were engaged, and. the whole establish
ment ready for Its occupants. An old
gentleman, a neighbor, with nothing else
to do, amused himself by looking at the
contents of the house, and one day pene-
trated the kitchen, where he found men
at work taking out the range who said,
"the Captain didn't like it, and had or
dered different patent" The family
failed to come for fortnight, the ice
man, the butcher, the baker, and grocer
came for orders, but found no customers.
Finally the neighborly old gentleman
told policeman he thought there was
something wrong, and so there was-for,
on opening it the house was entirely
empty. Not only was the furnit ire gone
but the mantles, CRATES, range, furnace,
everything portable, wss missing. And
where was the gallant Captain -? Gone
to keep stylish boarding house at the
Centennial.
