The Village Stork,
TAYLoR's LAST POEM.

BAYARD TAYLoR's LAST POEM.
The old Hyrcanian Forest sent
His weather on the plain;
WahlwinkePs orchards writhed and bent
IN wnirls of wind and rain.
Within her nest, upon the roof,
For generations tempest-proof,
WahlWlnkels stOrk with her young ones lay,
When the hand of the hurricane tore away
The house and the home that held them.
The storm passed by; the happy trees
Stood up and kissed the sun;
And from the birds new melodies
Came tluting one by one.
The stork, upon the paths below,
Went sadly pacing to and fro,
With dropping plumes and head depressed,
For the thought of the spoiled ancestral nest
And the old inherited honor.
Behold her now' the throstle sang
From out the linden tree;
who knows from what,a line she sprang,
Beyond the unknown Sea?'
III she could sing, perchance her tale
Might move u.s." chirruped the nightingale
sing? She can only rattle and creakp'
Whistled the bullfnch. with silver beak,
Within the wires of his prison,
And all birds there, or loud or low,
Were one in scott and scorn;
But still the stork paced to and fro,
AS utterly forlorn;
Then suddenly in turn of eye,
He saw poet passing by,
And the thought in his brain was an arrow of
fire,
That pierced her with passion and pride and
And gave her voice to answer
She raised her head and shook her wings,
And faced the piping crowd.
best SERVICE" are said, never sings.
True honor is not loud
My kindred carol not, nor boast.
Yet we are loved and welcomed most,
And our ancient race is dearest and first
And the hand that hurts us is held accused
In every home of WahlWinkel
Beneath sky forever fair,
Ana with Il summer sod,
The lard come from smiles-and there
My brother was god!
My nest upon temple stands
And sees the shine of desert lands;
And the palm and the tamarisk cool my wings.
When the blazing beam Of the MONDAY stings,
And l drink from the holy river!
''!here am sacred, even as here;
Yet dare [ not be lost, ,.
When meads are bright, hearts full of cheer,
At blithesome Penteccst.
Then from mine obelisk depart,
Guided by something in my heart,
And sweep in a line over Libyan sands
TO the blossoming olives of Grecian lands,
And rest onThe Cretan Ida
"Parnassus sees me as sail;
l cross the Adrian brine;
The distant SUBMITS fade and fall,
Dalmatian, Appenine;
The Alpine SHOWS beneath me CLEAN.
see the yellow Danube stream!
But hasten on until see my spent wings fall
Where l bring blessing to each and all.
And babes to the wives of Wahlwinkel"
She dropped her head and spake no mcra;
The birds on either hand,
Sang louder, luster than before
They could not understand.
Thus unused the stork, with snap of beak
Better be silent than to speak,
Highest beings can never be taught;
They have their voices, my thought;
And they were never in Egypt"

Household Hints.

4 70 Retain the Color of a Laaon or Calico
Dress.-One tablespoonful of alum, one
tablespoonful of sal, dissolved in one
gallon OF soft water; soak the dress, wash
as usual, and rinse in the salt and alum.
Neu Paint Newly painted rooms are
very unpleasant for maay- days, but if
handful of hay be strewn on the floor up
on which is sprinkled little of chloride
of lime, after couple of hours the often
sive smell will have entirely disappeared.
81 To Cleanse Gilt Frames.-Take sufc1-
ent flour of sulpher to give golden tinge
to one and one.half pints of water; boil
in this water four or five onions, strain.
and when cold wash with soft brush any
part that requires restorning; when dry
it will come out as good as new.
Carpet Moths.--A good way to kill
them is to take a coarse crash towel and
wiring it out OF clean water; spread it
smoothly on the carpet, then iron it dry
with a good hot iron, repeating the oper-
alton on all suspected places and these
least used. 1t does not injure the pile or
color of the carpet in the least; it is not
necessary to press hard, heat and steam
being the agents. and they do the work
efectually on worms and eggs.
Fodder Racks.--Tht wasteful practice
OF throwing hay and fodder upon the
ground to be fought over and trampled
upon is far too frequent. A cheap fod-
dering rack, covered and protected from
the weather, should be provided in every
yard.--American Agricustua1st.
A barrel of plaster shou1d ba kont in
handy place in every stable and manure
cellar. Where this is used constantly.
there will be freedom from the usual
strong oder of stables and fermenting
manure, and a saving of valuable materi-
al which would otherwise escape.
Milking cows should be kept dry and
clean in the stalls, and extra feed be
given to dairy COWS that fall off in their
milk. A few quarts of ground oats. lin
seed-oil, cake-meal, or bran, stirred in
tho water in the drinking troughs, Will
increase the milk-fow.

Though there Is, perhaps, no greater
evil engendered by society than that
classed as /" fiirting," and though there
are no greater enemies 10 themselves
and to the community at large than
fiirts, vet we should be sorry to class
under that head, as by the manner in
which the word firt Is used we should
be led to do, every pleasant girl. There
are many who spend their lives in max
ing sport Of their fellows: nor Is this
confined to the female sex alone; al
though, in the common acceptation OF
the word, its use Is apt to be restricted
to them, as IL there were no sinners in
that respect amongst the male portion
Of society. Yet such Is not the case /;
there are some men formed by nature
to be fiirts, almost the whole Of whose
life Is passed in this frivolous amuse.
ment. and whose undisguised opinion i
that there is nothing pleasanter than to
flirt with girls until they grow fond Of
them, and then to throw them over; but
such course Of cunduct can hardly be
of use to them or the community Of
which they are such unworthy members,
The habit of flirting grows almost i'm
perceptibly upon those who have once
yielded to its power. Its beginning,
like that Of many other evils, may be
harmless enough; but the length e
which flirts are sometimes led, in order
to crafty their craving FOR excitement
has no limit
II Is the same with the drunkard
Gradually, and with silent motions, the
demon drink infolds its votaries within
its arms; and he who had at first taker

ordinate craving which has obtained
possession Of his very soul.

Some Turkish Crimes.

An elderly Christian woman earned a
livelihood for her infirm husband and
numerous family by acting as a broker
for the sale Of Jewels in the harems of
the weather. class Of Mussulmans. One
day she was told to take all the jewels
she had for sale TO house where she
bad occasionally been employed in her
calling Her husband accompanied her
to the door Of the harem, and said he
would wait there for her, as he had been
in the habit Of doing. After he had
stood at the door for several hours, he
knocked, and three negresses appeared,
aud he asked them 70 tell mis- wife TO
come to him. They denied that his wife
had come TO the house that day, and
treated him as madman. He went
home hoping that she had, unseen BY
by the black slaves, left the harem b.
some other door, and gone TO their own
house; but nothing had been heard Of
her there. For several days he went
about the town inquiring for her with
out success. At last he happened TO
meet in the street the youngest OF the
three negresses whom he had seen at the
Turkish house, girl Of Is; she stopped
him, saying she was SO sorry for him,
that she would tell him the whole truth !;
and then she related how her mistress
had taken his wife into room where
there was trap door opening above a
deep vault, and there asked her to show
the jewels she had brought. They were
carefully examined, and placed on di-
van. Her mistress then, with the help OF
the two other female slaves, pushed the
poor woman into the vault. and closed
the trap-door over her. All this the girl
said she had seen; and she added that
they had heard his wife's cries until late
at night, and supposed that she must
then have died from the effects Of hel
fall. In the morning, she continued
the body was taken out by small stair
case leading down to the vault from the
ourt-yard, and buried in the garden
by the same black slaves. Armed witt
this statement, the husband laid an &C
cusation against both the Turkish LADY
and her two negresses. The tribunal
ordered domiciliary visit to the house
but nothing was found that could incul
pate any one. He then applied for thu
summoning of theyoung negress to give
evidence. but she was not summoned
and no trial took place, the husband o
the lady being high in Office, rich ant
influential, which were three good rea
sons for screening his wife from justice
The jewels obtained by this abominabl'
crime were worth fS0O, and their differ
ent owners, who had merely entrusted
them 10 the murdered woman for sale
never heard more OF them, though 1t j
believed that the President and mem
bers Of the tribunal had been requested
not without compliance, TO select fev
of them for the use of their harems-
