Let us sing while we may,
Let us all sing TODAY,
Giving up the wild strife of endeavor;
But to-day is our own,
For yesterdays flown,
And tomorrow may come to us never
And who knows if tomorrow bring sunlight
or shade?
n our buds ope in bloom, or in chill darkness
fade?
Our hearts beat with Joy, or with sorrow?
Oh! tomorrow you say
Is happier day,
But-Nlo ever saw tom
Then to- day let us sing,
For tomorrow may bring
More to vex than to please or delight us;
Or some will. o'-wisp bright,
With ambitions vain light,
To a still tiercer struggle incite us
To-day you will work, and to-day you will

And you'll Dy-and.by have all the pleasure

Oh! tomorrow we'll may
Be happier day!

H..

In one of the narrow and illighted
streets OF Sachsenhausen, in an attic of a
lofty and unsightly house, sat blonde,
about twenty years of age, busily en-
ployed with her needle. The furniture
of the room was clean and tasteful. The
girls whole dress would not have fetched
many kreutzers; but every article fitted
her as we'll, as if it had cost hundreds.
Her fair locks shaded face frightened
by pair of eyes of heavenly blue. The
spirit of order, modesty and cleanliness
reigned in everything around her. Her
features were delicate, like those of one
noble born; her eyes betrayed sleepless-
ness and anxiety, and ever and anon q
deep sigh rose from the maidens breast.

THE MAIN BRIDGE.

L.
It was past midnight-the lights on
the stone bridge which crosses the river
Main at Frankfort were still burning,
though the footsteps of passengers had
died away for some time on its pavement,
when young man approached the
bridge from the town with hasty strides.
At the same time, another man, advanced
in years. was coming toward him from
Sachsenhausen, the well-known suburb
on the opposite side of the river. The
two had not yet met, when the latter
turned from his path and went toward
the parapet with the evident intention of
leaping from the bridge into the Main.
The young man followed him quickly,
and LAID hold of him.
"Sir." said he, ~ think you want to
drown yourself"
"What is that to you2"
II was only going to ask you to do me
the favor to wait few minutes and al
low me to join you. Let US draw close
to each other and, arm n-arm, take the
leap together. The idea of making the
journey with a perfect stranger, who has
CHANGED to come for the same purpose, is
really rather interesting. For many
years have not made a request to any
human being; do not refuse me this one,
which must be my last" ..-. .~.
The young man held out his hand
His companion took it. He continued,
with enthusiasm: $50 be it; arm-in arm.
I do not ask who you are, good or bad
come, let us drown"
The elder of the two, who had at first
been in asgreat hurry to end his existence,
now restrained the impetuosity of the
younger. Be-"
"Stop, sir" said The, while his weary
eyes tried to examine the features of his
companion. "Stop,sir. You seem to me
to be too young to leave life in this way !;
for man of your years life must have
still bright prospects,"

resting on the silver lectern, the other
grasplng her roses. He came a little
nearer, and said, very quietly:
Il am going to India because cannot
forget you here. I kon't know if I shall
ever return, and I don't care; but before
| go want to ask you one favor: want
you to forgive me, Miss Langton."
He could not see her face, she had
turned 1t little from him; but he saw
her start, and one yellow rose fall with a
little rustic on the marble payeme emit
snapped off IN the unconscious clenching
OF her fingers, He went on quickly:
"Please do not mistake me. I only mean
what l say. Iwronged you shamefully
and unjustly seven years ago, and 1
make no excuses for 1t. You were right
to listen to none for me; right in every
word you said. No man who ever really
loved you could have done as did. I
thought I loved you, but l was wrong in
that, too, and deserve your scorn for my
mistake. All the same, ask you to for

he was standing by her side, trying to
read an answer in her downcast face F.;
but she did not turn to speak, and after
a minute he said, with little culver in
his strong voice:
Am wrong to expect it?' If am, I
won't plague you any more; but-you
WILL snake hands with me, at least, won't

He put out his hand and touched hers.
For moment she did not move. Then
she lifted her head so suddenly that the
soft, golden hair brushed his cheek.
Their faces were quite close together.
and her eyes were full of tears-tears
which rolled down her cheeks aa she put
up her lips to his, and said his name.
Only that! and before it was uttered he
had put his arms around her, and was
holding her to him, his face pressed up
on hers. l don't think the forgiveness
was even spoken after all-neither was it
needed-but before they left the
chapel she said to him:
"lf you must 60, you will take me
with you. [ have loved you so long, I
cannot lose you now. Promise, Hugh"
and he answered:

as | live. Heaven bless you, my love!'
They were married three weeks later,
and l best man, and went down to South
ampton to see them sail; but how it all
came about even I did not know till
long afterward. All the same, Hugh

it all to you"

P0liteness of Spaniards.

You canno. imagine more polite company,
writes correspondent Of the Worcester Mass }
Spy, than crowd of Spaniards waiting at the
station. No pressing on one another, no confu-
sion; kindly interest in strangers and defer
ence 10 those who appear not to understand the
language or the customs of the country. A Gu
rlous instaIca and illustration of this occurred
one day as was buying the tickets at city
station They weigh all the gold coin, you
know, and take nothing on it's apparent face
value, SIS we do, without submitting it to this
t,st. The hour for the departure of the train
had bout arrived, the crowd was large and 1
had taken my place at the head of the long line
of people who wanted to buy tickets. The coin
| handed to the ticket agent was one which
had been clipped by some Jew, and it took 8
good while for the ticket seller TO weigh it and
estimate what deduction should bs made from
its face value. Do you suppose the crowd pushed
and pressed, and denounced the Ignorance OF
the foreigner, as fear nigh possibly have peen
the Case IN some of our American cltlesf Not
bit of it. They waited, each IN his turn, IN
the most considerate manner. vlnoicatlng my
claim to have but small deduction made, and
showed, instead of impatience. an amount OF
sympathetic interest which, with us, is apt tC
be reserved for personal friends alone.

generous woman. She was the main instru-
ment in raising the S50,000 which completed
the Bunker Hill Monument. The Bunker Hi,
Monument had stood in an uucompleted state
for want of funds, an eye. sore to the people of
the Hub" ard to all New England, something
like the unfinished Washington Monument at
Washington city In the present day. Mrs Hale
through her magazine proposed that the wom-

the above sum to finish the work Peopls
smiled at the idea at first looking upon it az
nothing more than visionary. It turned ont an
entire success. however. for entirely through

was formed, under whose auspices the greatest
fair that had ever been known in this country
was held in Boston, and all the money wanted
was raised, and the monument not long after.
ward completed, Fanny Elsler contributing
the sum needed to cap the structure, Mrs
Hale's part in the monument matter is quoted
by her friends as illustrating the energy OF pur-

of such day was formerly at the option of the

Thanksgiving Day should be national affair
and that the last day in November should be
adopted as the most fitting. For thirty years
she had urged this in various publications. At
length, after personal correspondence with the
governors of all the States prior to the civil war
and afterwsrd with President Lincoln and his
successors, her object was accomplished. 1t is

The Republican Substitute

The substitute for the Democratic Army
bill, offered by the Republicans in the House,
aud rejected by the majority, was in these
words:
Whereas, the unnecessary presence of troops
at the polls is contrary to the spirit of our in
stitutions and the traditions of our people and
would tend to destroy the freedom of elections
and
Whereas, the presence of troops at the polls
has heretofore been, and may hereafter be,
necessary and proper for the suppression of
illegal and powerful combinations of armed
men ln military array, engaged in obstructng
by force, the due execution of the laws of the
United States, and in destroying the freedom
and peace of elections; and
Whereas, experience has shown that the ex-
lstence OF the Republic, the supremacy of its
laws, and tho liberties of it's people can only be
maintained against the military and other
powerful combinations of their enemies by the
exerti0n Of the military power of the govern
ment in sub0rdination to the civil power in
support of the law; and
Whereas, the ipjunctioDs of the constitution
that the President shall take care that the laws
bs faithfully executed are equally binding in
respect to laws relating to elections, the course
OF justice and all other laws of the United
States, without distinction of day, places or
reasons; therefore,
Be it enacted, etc, that it shall not be lawful

general or special election is being held in any
state, any part OF the army or the navy of the
United States, unless such employment be
necessary to carry out the provisions of the con.
stitution of the United States, or to overcome
forclble obstruction to the execution of the laws
made in pursuance thereof.
Section 2 Every person who violates the
provisions of this act shall be subject to the ren-
alties in section 552S of the Revised Statutes.
This bill makes ample provision against
military interference with the freedom of
elections, while it does not interfere with
the execution of the laws or do away with
the defences against fraud and violence at the
polls. 1t seems to be the opinion of many
that the bill passed by the Democratic House
will have the effect to seriously cripple the
general Government in the execution OF the
election laws, and that it is but the first step
toward the breaking down.of the guards about
national elections and the deprivation Of the
government of the power to supervise and
protect them. The Republican substitute,
while strong and explicit, is not open to these
objections. 1t is to be hoped the Senate will
adopt it, especially as the Senate Committee
to which the House measure was referred,
find in that fatal defect, inasmuch as 1t takes
away from the general Government the right
of protecting State against invasion.
