COUSIN WILL.
PHILIP MORSE, IN scR1BNER.

-
$50 late ?" I've just come from the club
Rejecting on my lonely state;
Till. wearied out at last, paused
And leaned upon a garden gate.
The old moons mellow radiance hung
In golden mists among the trees,
Faint odors, born from distant flowers,
Ebbed idly on the evening breeze.
AS thus stood absorbed in thought,
Ipressed against the gate too hard,
1t opened with sudden jerk.
found myself within the yard.
form came gliding down the walk;
Soft arms embraced me as perplexed,
stood one blissful moment, while
sweet voice soothed my ear; the next
1t rose into shrek, then sobbed; -4
20 sir, how could you keep so still |!
When all the time know you knew
thought you were my cousin Will"
These stars are moons or rather months;
Just five have fitted since that night,
And two of those have calmly shone
Upon our welded life. It quite
Surprises me to think of it,
And she is queenly, tall and fair,
With lustrous eyes and such wealth
Orwell we call 1t auburn hair.
<
80 late p I've just come from the club;
Ny wife sits silent, but light,
. Unseen before, turks in her eye,
Once more Imuse on that calm night
Wbap Arsf ha M of m at fba patal
And wonder while her eyes flame still,
II ever /, in days to come,
Shall wish it had been Cousin Will.

unassuming, and at all times full of simplic-
ity and ease. He observes keenly and mar
rates incidents and adventures, as he de-
scribes character, with the art of the racon-
telr, and certainly succeeds in rlvetting the
attention. OF both "Over the Alleghanies''
and the American Crisis, y it may be said
that they are 'sdiflicult to lay down. which
is not slight commentator in an age of
book-making, when nine works in every ten

At the regular meeting of the cabinet Sat-
urday the present Indian troubles were fully
and freely discussed. The determination
was expressed to exterminate them at once
and forever, and with this view to use all the
power and appropriations at the command
OF the Government.

Justice Miller has delivered an important
opinion in the Supreme Court OF the United
States, showing that man in prosperous
business who may purchase real estate out
of profits and transfer said property to his
wife may be held, in the event OF subsequent
failure, to have withdrawn funds to when
an assignee in bankruptcy may lay claim IN
behalf of creditors.

- The Chastity Of Cossack Women.


These Cossacks have some very curious
customs. They are all comparatively yonng
men, and nearly all married, of course, to
young wives. 1t often happens, as in the
94 Home durins @sf for gHg 81
four years, and the. natural result is that
many of the wives left behind do not prove
to be Lucretias. The Cossacks arc quite
aware of this, and many of them, upon
starting home, buy a white scarf or handker-
chief, which they take with them. Upon
entering their villages. the whole popula-
.tion-women, girls, old men and children
come out to meet them, including, OF course,
the wives of the returning wanderers. Now,
those of the wives who have been unfaithful
to their lords, of which there is usually a
considerably sprinkling, go forward to their
husbands, kneel doWn before them in the
road, put their faces in the dust, and place
their husbands foot upon their nccks. This
is confession of guilt, and at the same time
prayer for forgiveness. If the husband
then covers his wife's head with the white
scarf, it means that he forgives her, asks no
questions, and obliterates the past. In this
case no one has right ever to reproach the
wife with her incontinency, and if any one
should be rash enough to do SO, he would
have to count with the husband, who is the
protector of his wife's honor. If, on the
co ntrary, the white handkerchief is not pro-
duced, the woman returns straight to her
fathers house without again entering her
husbands dwelling. and divorce is pro.
nounced Although there is generally con-
siderable sprinklng of women who come
forward to kneel down and put their faces
in the dust, it rarely happens that they are
not forgiven. A very tragical case, how
ever, is related in which the reverse took
place. A returning Cossack was informed
by malicious neighbor before he reached
his home that his wife had been unfaithful.
without waiting to see whether the woman
would come forward and confess her sins.
| The comrades of the Cossack perceived that
he had all of sudden taken to drink and
dissipation, although he was not man given
| to these vices. When he reached his vii.
| lage, his wife, as he feared, came forward,
| knelt down, and put her face in the dust at
| his feet. The spectators saw him look at
he- as she lay in the dust for 4 long time.
| Two or three times he put his hand in his
| breast for the white handkerchief, as il he
were going to cover the repentant wOman's
| head-two or three times the movement was
restrained. Finally, as if driven by a sud-
| den impulse, he all at once drew his shaska,
and with one stroke severed her head from
her body. The punishment for the crime
was two months imprisonment, while the
malicious neghbor who had taken the trotl-
| BILE to inform him beforehand OF his wife's
| misconduct was sentenced TO Siberia for
three years.--N. Y. Times.

The non sequitur is thus feelingly dis
played in the postal-card letter Of wife to
her absent husband :"I am most sick, baby

the other children have the measles. All
the women are wearing back combs, and
don't forget to write often. We all send
love, and cur house almost got ON fire last

The unthinking man is apt to conclude
that anybody has in himself the stuff of
which hand organists are made, but the
truth is that the hand-organist requires a
hand more steady than that with which Ri
chelieu ruled restless people from behind
the throne of an impotent King.
