own story, Morton gave him the adven-
ture. Jacob was at first incredulous,
but when he had seen the bodies he was
satisfied. t4
"Polly, my jewell" he said, placing
his arm around her neck, II am proud
of you. l love you more and more, for
every day l find more to love-" And
then, turning to Morton, he added,
s'What do you think of such wife?''
"Ah!" returned the guest, with deep
feeling, "if poor Liant Morton had such
a wife he wouldn't be a mail carrier. !"
When Morton left he was directed to
stop at the first settlement and state to
the officers what had happened, and he
promised to do SO. He once more
blessed the brave woman who saved his
life, and then set out. Late in the af-
ternoon two officers arrived at the
cabin, and when they were shown the
dead bodies, at once proceeded tore
move them. And ere a week had passed

How to Waltz with Decency.

gentleman approaches the lady by 81.

or half bow. The lady places her riph
hand in that of the gentleman, who then
extends his right arm in direct line q

an acute angle. In this angle the lsdv
will place herself, with the center Ina
of the person opposite the line Of tbe
gentlemen's right side, both persons q .
parallel lines, not forming an angle. n
this position each will be looking over
the others right shoulder, and by the
lady turning her head slightly to the
left, the effect of the group win Be-
greatly improved, and prevent all DOS
sibility of taking each Others breath.

the gentleman's right shoulder, the in
gers appearing in front. The right
hand of the gentleman should rest very
lightly upon the lady's back, as near tie
waist as possible, so as not to remoye
the upward pressure OF the elbow al

Both persons should be slightly bent
forward from the hips upward, so that
the shoulders may be only three or four
inches apart, but the distance increas-

ties free in their limbs, so thatanyc con-.
tact of person or knees may be avoided,
and should be so avoided as most Sc
rious mistake. The gentleman's left
hand, holding the lady's right, should
be extended downward in a line with
the body, the hands three or four inches
distant from the person, the arms form
ing a gentle curve from the shoulders
downward. No weight is placed on
this arm; all the guiding and changes
must be governed by the elbow under
the lady's arm. 1t will be found that
this grouping will be perfectly modest
in appearance, no more contact Of per-
sons occurring than in a lady taking !

THE BORDER HEROINE.

Some years ago, before the State of
Arkansas Was SO densely populated as
now, and when the mails from Little
Rock 10 the eastern borders were car
rieu on horseback, there lived few
mics aoove Horsehead a stout pioneer
named Jacob Burnap. His wife Polly
and one child nine years old made up
his family. Ills chief business was
hunting, and his unerring rifle never
failed to supply his board and some
thing over. His nearest neighbor was
fifteen niles off, so he was little trou-
oled with prying visitors.
twas in the early spring that Jacob
starteu uoWn the river with boat-load
of 1urs. and skins. He left Polly in
charge oi the premises; and he left
with aer, 100. a light rifle and brace
of pistols. She knew how to use the
rifle, lor never was she happier than
when ler husband patted her on the
Shoulder and said, "Nobly done, Pol
", my iear; j could not have made a
better shot myself.'' ~
,nu he had occasion to say this with
truth, too. 3s98t s -
aeon Burnap had been gone four
days, 'shen towards evening a horse
man rode up to the hunters door. He
was IL small, muscular man, some forty
years OF age, and seemed Injured to all
hardships. AS he sprang from his sad
ule, Polly made her appearance.
"-Ah, Polly, once more here" the
newcomer said, as he drew well-filled

fatigued beast. f'is2 va

SUNSET ON THE BEARC4MP.
BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.

BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.
A gold fringe on the purpling hem
OF hills the river runs,
AS down its long, green valleys fails
The last of summers suns.
Along its twany gravel bed
Broad flowing, swift, and still,
As if its meadow levels felt
The hurry OF the hill.
Noiseless between its banks of green
From curve to curve 1t slips;
The drowsy maple shadows rest
Like fingers on its lips.
A waif from CARROTS widest hills,
Unstoried and unknown;
The ursine legend of its name
Prowls on its banks alone.
Yet flowers as fair its slopes adorn
AS ever YarrOw knew,
Or, under rainy, Irish skies,
BY Sponsors Mulla grew;
And through the gaps of leaning trees
Its mountain cradle shows;
The gold against the amethyst,
The green against the rose.
Touched by light that hath no name,
A glory never sung,
AlOft on sky and mountain wall
Are Gods great pictures hung.
How changed the submits vast and old!
No longer granite browed,
They melt in rosy mist: the rock
Is softer than the cloud;
The valley holds its breath; no leaf .
OF all its elins is twirled: @
The silence OF eternity
Seems falling on the world.
The pause before the breaking seals
OF mystery is this:
Yon miracle play of night and day
Makes dumb its witnesses.
What unseen altar crowns the hills
That reach up stair on stair?
What eyes look through, what white wings fan
These purple walls OF air.
What Pres nee from the heavenly heights
To those of earth stoops down?
Not vainly Hellas dreamed OF gods
On Ida's snowy crownl
SLOW fades the vision of the sky,
fhe golden water pales,
And over all the valley land
gray lnged yapor sails.
20 the common way of all;
The sunset fires will burn,
The tires will blow, the river How,
When no more return.
No whisper from the mountain pine
Nor tapping stream shall tell
The stranger, treading where tread,
OF him who loved them well.
But beauty seen is never lost,
Gods colors all are fast; a-t-=
The glory OF this sunset heaven
Into my soul has passed
A sense of gladness uncOn1ned
To mortal date or cline;
AS the soul liveth, it shall live
Beyond the years OF time.
Beside the mystic asphodels
Shall bloom the home born flowers.
And new horizons flush and glow
With sunset hues of ours.
Farewell! These smiling hills must wear
Too soon their wintry frown,
And snow cold winds from off them shake
The naples red leaves down.
But shall see a summer sun
Still setting broad and low;
The mountain slopes shall blush and bloom
The golden water flow.
A lovers claim is mine on all
see to have and hold
The rose-light of perpetual hills,
And sunsets never cold
