" Nothing is wrong with you, Nellie,
but with me. | can't rest in my grave
knowing the wrong l unintentionally
committed in binding you to perpetual
widowhood for my sake. l come to
revoke my decision, to give you my full
permission to marry again, and my
advice is to marry Harry Levison.
Promise me you will do it, and l shall
rest peacefully forever"
40, Will! if you say so-if you think
it best-yes, yes, / will"
| Her face was pale enough now to have
passed for ghost herself.
Go and look at the clock in the
dining-room, Nellie, and see if it is near
the stroke of twelve"
She went dumbly, mechanically at his
behest, and when she came back he was
gone, and the moonlight streamed in on
an empty room.
Then the reaction came, and Nellie
flew on to her bedroom, and locked the
door, and covered her head with shawl,
and sobbed and cried Historically until
her overweight nerves found relief in
sleep.
The next day Mr.. Levison sent a little
note over, apologizing for the seeming
discourtesy in not coming to bid her
goodbye on his sudden departure for an
indefinite time, and telling her that her
cruel decision never to marry again had
been the cause of it.
To which Nellie, all pale, alarmed,
and crimson with confusion, penned an
answer, assuring him she had changed
her mind, and begging him to come over
to lunch to see her and meet her brother
in-law.
Of course Mr.. Levison came, and it
did not take two minutes to- settle it,
nor did he laugh at her when she
solemnly related her experience of the
night before.
For it was his ghost, Harry, just as
sure as l am alive and speaking to you"
GA jolly old mean a thoughtful,
painstaking spirit, Nellie. Bless his
ghostship. Well hold him in eternal
remembrance"
Nor did his countemance change a
feature, even when he, Nellie, and Fred
Willard discussed the marvelously
obliging kindness of the departed.
Nor did pretty, blooming, blushing
Mrs. Nellie ever for a moment dream
that her visitant was Fred himself,
assisted by wig and false whiskers.

LOADED wAINs.

From the broad fields, their golden glory shorn,
And sunny uplands of their beauty reft,
Through the still sunlight of the autumn morn,
And hedgerows, with their lingering Jewels left
By the brown river, through the leafy lanes,
On to the farmsteads move the loaded wains.
The stalwart reaper bears his frightened scythe.
Or tracks the course the great machine has made
And bonnie lass and lad, sunburned and 1.-THE,
fade,
Wake all the meadow land with harvest strains,
Clustering and laughing round the loaded wains.
lis soft September natures harvest yields,
But all through life our ripening fruit we reap,
Now storing violets from sweet April fields,
Now roses that bright July sunshines steep,
Now garnering gray 0ctober's sober gains,
Now Christmas hollies pile our loaded wains.
All mel how fast the fair spring flowers die
How summer blossoms perish at the touch,
And Hope and Love in useless sympathy,
Weep for the Faith that gave and lost so muchI
From half our sheayes drop out the golden grains;
Small IS our portion in the loaded wains.
Yet, ere the mighty Reaper takes it all,
Fling out the seed, and tend-it rood by rood;
One ear is full, though hundreds round it fall;
One acre mid mildewed upland good;
Eternity will rear on heavenly plains
The smallest treasure won from loaded wains.

Keats. the Poet.

John Keats, the poet, seems to have
been clear-headed fellow, with an eye
to business. In one of his letters lately
published he tells what a successful
tragedy would do for him, and then he
tells something of his own habits. He
says: My name with the fasionables is
vulgar; am weaver-boy to them.
A tragedy would lift me out of this mess,
And mess it is, as far as rewards our
pockets. But be not cast down any
more than ! am. l feel that can bear
real ills better than imaginary ones.
Whenever l find myself growing vapOr-
ish 1 rouse myself, wash and put on a
clean shirt, brush my hair and clothes,
tie my shoestrings neatly, and, in fact,
Adonize as if was going out-then all
clean and comfortable, l sit down to
write. This l find the greatest relief.
Besides, 1 am becoming accustomed to
the privations of the pleasures of sense.
In the midst of the world l live like a
hermit. have forgot how to lay plans
for enjoyment of any pleasure" He
endeavored to give pecuniary assistance
to brother who had settled in thewilds
of America, and wrote (this was, after
the Edinburgh ReUie,0 was supposed to
have slaughtered him), "To this end
| will devote whatever may gain for a
few years to come, at which period
must begin to think of security for
my own comfort when quiet will become
more pleasant to me than the world.
Still would have you doubt my success.
'Tis the cast of die with me. You say
These things will be a great torment to
me- shall not suffer them to be so.
l shall only exert myself the more, while
the seriousness of their nature will pre-
vent me from nursing up imaginary
griefs. l have not had the blue-devils

advised not to publish it until it is seen
whether the tragedy will or not succeed.

it not, it will be drawback, and shall
have to perform a longer literary
pilgrimage"

Tabby's Curiosity Satisfied.

The Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise tells
this affecting story: Charles Kaiser, who
has the only hive of bees in town, says
that when he first got his swarm his old
cats curiosity was much excited in re-
gard to the doings of the little insects,
the like of which she had never before
seen. At first she watched their COM
ings and goings at distance. She then
flattened herself upon the ground and
crept along toward the hive, with tail
horizontal and quivering. 1t was clearly
evident that she thought the bees some
new kind of game. Finally she took up
a position at the entrance to the hive,
and when a bee came in or started out,
made dab at it with her paws. This
went on for time without attracting
the special attention of the occupants
of the hive. Presently, however, cold
Tabby" struck and crushed bee on
the edge of the opening to the hive. The
smell of the crushed bee alarmed and
enraged the whole swarm. Bees by the
score poured forth and darted into the
fur of the astonishel cat. Tabby rolled
herself in the grass, splitting, sputtering,
biting, clawing, and squalling as cat
never squalled before. She appeared
mere ball of fur and bees as she rolled
and tumbled about. She was at length
hauled away from the hive with gar
den rake, at the cost of several severe
stings to her rescuer. Even after she
had been taken to distant part of the
grounds the bees stuck in Tabby's fur,
and about once in two minutes she
would utter an unearthly "yowl," and
bounce full yard in the air. On COM
ing down she would try to scratch an ear,
when sting on the back would cause
her to turn succession of back somer-
saults, and give vent to running fire of
squalls. Like the parrot that was left
alone with the monkey, old Tabby had
a dreadful time. Two or three days af-
ter this adventure Tabby was caught by
her owner, who took her by the neck
and threw her down near the beehive.
No sooner did she strike on the ground
than she gave fearful squall, and at a
single bound reached the top of fence
full six feet in height. There she clung
for moment, with tail as bigas rolling
pin, when, with another bound and
squall, she was out of sight and did not
again put in an appearance for over a
week.

A DUTCH seaman, being condemned
to death, had his sentence commuted to
Punishment for life upon St. Helena.
On being landed there he stole coffin,
and, having made rudder of the lid,
ventured to sea in it. When his guards
on the ship, which had become becalmed
within league and a half of the island,
saw the strange craft floating slowly
over the water, they at first imagined a
specter, but, on recognizing the fugi-
tive, they took vote of the officers and
crew, and it was decided to show mercy
to the courageous fellow. He was
picked up, taken to Holland, and sup
ported by the crew until pardoned
through the intercession of the late
Queen.

Wife and Home,

Servians are not remarkably patriotic
they are too faithful as husbands,
lovers and fathers to become good SOL
diers.
A man was once brought to Tchernay-
eff, Russian general, charged with
having cut off two of his own fingers in
order to render himself unfit for service.
The soldier denied that he had himself
performed the act of self-mutilation, but
subsequently admitted that comrade
had served him only too faithfully in the
matter.
"And you are not ashamed" asked
the general, to abandon the field when
the Turks are on the soil of our father
landw
Excellency," replied the soldier, II
am quite willing to fight the Turks, but
1 wanted to see my home again"
"Indeedw said the commander-in-
chief; "well, you shall have long leave
of absence. Say your prayers. You will
be shot this moment"
The platoon was drawn out, and the
man, who was really no coward, and
would have willingly died in the defense
of his home, made the sign of the cross,
and was stepping in front of his execu-
tioners without a word, when he sud-
denly stopped, as if he had forgotten
something, then walked up to the gen.
eral, and, placing in his hands few
pieces of money, said:
"To be given to my wife after"
"Go and take them to her yourselfT'
blurted out Tchernayeff, whose eyes are
said to have filled with tears.
The man was of course pardoned. He
seems to have been a veritable type of
his countrymen, who cannot understand
why so many should sacrifice all that
earth holds dear simply that another may
play at royalty
AT one of the popular camp meetings,
where the table is not very well provided
either as to quality or quantity, pleas
ant incident occurred at the opening of
the morning exercises. The conductor
gave out a hymn, the second verse of
which contains the couplet:
"And may our passions be subdued
BY sparing use Of daily food"
On reading this the thought occurred to
him that the singing of it would be
looked on as joke by the assembled
multitude, most of whom had expert
enced at their breakfast the inconveni-
ence of the "sparing use of daily food"
This brought broad grins to the faces of
the brethren.
