The FOrsakeR

Gay forms were thrOnging FOUND,
HeIlov'd was passing by;
He turned cold glance on me,
And thought heard him sigh.
His eye, that sparkIed brightly once,
Had lost its luster now;
Joy had forever left that lip,
And marble seem'd that brow.
He turned his hasty glance away
From one he lOv'd so well,
Fearing perhaps his form, 50 changed,
That hopeless love might tell.
Upon bis arm a fair-hair'd girl
Was leaning, ga and free;
Alaslsh little thought how well
He was beloved by me.
IWoUld not have another know
How deep was my despair,
When I saw him by the altar kneel,
And pledge his honor there,
That he would guard with life, with fame
Protect In veal or woe,
Her, his own bride, who knelt TOO there,
His best belOv'd below.
saw his quivering lips were sres5'd
Upon her brow so fair;
He thought not then, alasl that ],
HIS drst love, saw him there.
hoped his bride, that happy girl,
Would love him as loved,
And months, and years, as they rolled by,
Would see that love anmOyed.
Ine'er shall be that happy thing
That was wont to be;
Scenes that such joys to others bring
VIII have no charm for me.
And though he said he loved me more
Than all the world beside,
Can that, alasl avail me noWl
Another IS his bride.

A Rich Scene.

The following rich scene recently OC-
CURED in court of justice, between
the judge and a Dutch witness all the
way from Rotterdam.
Judge-What is your native Ian
guage?
Witnoss-I pc no native, rs a Dutch
man.
Judge-What is your mother tongue7
Witness-Oh, fadder says she pc all
tongue.
Judge lin an irritated tOne)-What
language did you first IeaTn-what Ian
guage did you speak in the cradleP
Witness-I did not speak any lam
guage in the cradle at all; only cried
in DOOCh.
At this there was a general laugh, in
which the judge, jury and audience
joined. The witness was Intercepted

Wine Making in Brindisi.

The process by which the grapes in
he district round Brindisi are convert
ed into the Uin dls pays is described as
"most primitive" The grapes are all
collected, not when they happen TO be
ripe, but when the owner has n chance
Of hiring one of the places in which the
wine is made. They are then heaped
together in a large area consisting of q
water-Light tank about 60 feet in super.
Gcies and two or three feet deep, having
at one of its sides two openings, which
communicate into cisterns or "weIls"
outside. When the platform is covered
to a sufficient depth, the work Of tread
ing is commenced. The writer does
not minutely describe this part Of the
performance, but we know That the
wine treaders, exhilarated by generous
1raughts are incited by strains OfrOugt
music to dance wildly about with naked
seet upon the flooring of grapes.
Meanwhile, the juice runs down the in
clined floor Of the platform, and finds
its way into the wells, from which, af-
ter standing awhile, it is drawn up in
buckets and poured again over the husks
which remain in the other cOmpart-
ment. After this, the whole mass is
allowed to stand for some time and fer
ment, when the side apertIres are again
opened, and the must drained off into
the vat. The great objection TO the pro-
cess is the employment of the men with
naked feet; and divers attempts have
been made in Italy and elsewhere to in
ventsOme substitute for them. As yet,
however, these have not been very sue
cessful, the result of practical expert
ments showing that any machine which
is sufficiently strong to crush the grapes
is alwaya liable to crush the stones as
welI-a proceeding which is fatal to the
flavor of the wine

Report says that Miss Cofey was one
Of the most modest and sWeet-temper-
ed young women in Lawrence, Kansas,
and that Mr.. Leeper was a worthless,
bullying fellow; yet, when they mar
ried, it was his parents who objected
to the union. He lived with his wife
only two weeks, and then it was mutu-
ally agreed that they should separate.
The bride assented quietly, saying that
she was pleased to be rid Of her hus-
band. He subsequently spoke disre-
spectfully about her to his friends.
One evening he stood jaUntily in the
door Of the post Office, smoking. She
came along in her customary diffdsnt
manner, handed her parasOl to a by
stander, took off her gloves, drew
eOWhide from her pocket, and slashed
Leeper across the face until he was
terribly disfgured. Then she took
back her parasOl, put on her gloves,
md walked demUrely on.

Fine PraYers.

I believe God abhOrs fine prayers. II

sentences, he is not likely to get it.
Finery in dress or language is out of
place in beggars. heard aman in the
street one day begging aloud by means
of 4 very magnificent grafton. He used
grand language in very pOmpous style,
and I dare say he thought he was sure

rOwed speech; but I, for one, gave bin
nothing, but felt inclined to laugh at
his bOmbast. Is it not likely that
many great prayers are as useless?
Many prayer-meeting prayers are a
great deal too fine. Keep your figures
and metaphors and paTabolic express
siOns for your fellow-creatures, use
them to those who want to be instruct
ed, but do not parade them before God.
When we pray, the simpler our prayers
the better; the plainest, humblest Ian
gUage which expresses our meaning is
the best.-Spurgeon.

Novelties n paper: The latest use Of
paper appears to be for chimney pots.
They are made in Breslau, and are
light and durable. Before the paper
pulp is moulded and compressed into
the required shape, it is treated with
chemicals which render it nOn-infam-
mable. Specimens Of paper and cloth
made from the California cactus were
recently exhibited before the Maryland
Academy Of Sciences. The cactus
grows abundantly in many of our
Western States and Territories, and it
is found on arid soil where nothing can
be cultivated. The success that has
been met with in making paper from
thisp plant is so marked that the business

scale.

Potato UheeSe-.-A Peculiar PrOGdCt Of
Central Germany.

Potato Uheese-.-A Peculiar Proeact OF
Central Germany.
Cheese is made from potatoes in
Thuringia and SaxonY, in the follow
ing manner: After having collected a
quantity of potatoes of good quality,
giving the preference to a large white
kind, they are boiled in a cauldrOn, and
after becoming cool they are peeled
and reduced TO pulp, either by means
of a crater or mortar. To five pounds
of this pulp, which ought to be as
equal as possible, is added one pound
of sOur.milk and the necessary quantity
Ofsalt. The whole is kneaded together,
and the mixture covered up and allowed
to lie for three OF four days, according
TO the season. AT the end of this time
it is kneaded anew, and the cheeses
are placed in little baskets, when the
superauOus moisture escapes. They
are then allowed TO dry in the shade,
and placed in layers i'll large vessels,
where they must remain for fifteen
days. The older these cheeses are the
more their quality improves. Three
kinds are made-the first and most
common is made as detailed above; the
second, with four parts of potatoes
and two parts of eurdled milk; the
third with two parts Of potatoes and
four parts of cow or eve milk.

Opposition.

The man OF the organization that has
merit and capacity for good is helped
by a certain amount Of opposition.
Large birds rise against the wind, not
with it. A fine ship makes little pro-
gress in a dead calm. A stiff breeze
purifes the atmosphere, supplying life
given principles. Man never shows
his latent force until opposition faces
his darling schemes. Hardship is the
native soil Of manhood and seIf-reliance.
He who cannot abide the storm with
out finching, or fight for the right
against the legiOns in opposition, is not
made Of the stuff that commands sue
cess. Fair weather men, those who
prosper only in the sunshine and under
a eloudless sky, must resign the leader
ship to those Of sterner qualities, whom
opposition strengthens and whom the
sight Of the foe only nerves to brave
desds.
