Birth, Bridal and Burial.
One sometimes finds a gem am

ohe sometimes nnds gem among
the castaways of the forgotten years.
The following congratulatory letter
to young yady on the eve of mar
riage is venerable, but is good. The
gentle heart that indicted it, with the
bride and her maidens, may have
passed away with the flowers that
perfumed the past but the told, old
story" is told as sweetly now as then,
aud the same stately ceremonies ush-
er in the event which links the desti
nies Of two hearts: 81 am holding
some pasteboard in my hands-three
stately pluckings from the bush Of
ceremony. l am gazing upon a
card, and upon namc-a name with
which your throbbing heart was lost.
There is nothing strange about that
card. The maiden sign still looks up
from it, calm and customary, as it
looks Oh many a friendly visit, rs it
lies in many formal basket. l am
gazing, too, upon card where the
nearer parent tells the world she will
be AT Home one day; and that is
nothing new. But there is another
card whose mingling there puts a
tongue of fire into it's speechlcss paste
board. 1t tells Us that feeling is ma
turing into the tiny, and that these
cards are but the pale heralds of the
coming crisis when hand that has
pressed friends hands and plucked
flowers, shall close down on one to
whom she will be friend and low-
cr forever after. I send you few
flowers TO adorn the dying moments
of your single life. They are the
gcntlest type of delicate, durable
friendship. They spring up by your
side when others have deserted it,
and will be found watching over our
graves when those, who should, have
forgotten US. The three great stages
of our being are births the bridal and
the burial. To the first We bring only
weakness, for tue last we have moth
ing but dust. But here at the altar,
where life joins lie, the pair come
throbbing up TO the holy man, whis-
pering the deep promise that arms
each with the others heart TO help on
in thet life struggle a. gore and. duty.
The beautiful will he there, borrow
ing new beauty from the scene-the
gay and the frivolous will look solemn
for once, and youth will come to gaze
on all that it's sacred thoughts pant
for-and age will tottcr up TO hear
the old words repeated over again,
that to their own lives have given the
charm. Some will weep over it as if
it were tomb some will laugh, as
il it were joke; but two must stand
by it, for it is fate, not fun, this ever

The First American Born
Elephant.

PHlLApEIrmIA, March l0.-What is
claimed 10 be the first native American
elephant was born to-day IN the winter

length Of the mothers. There IN u thick

PARNELL'S PROGRESS.
SPLENDID SUCCESS OF HIS WORK
FOR IRELAND.
On His Way Home to Take Part 10 the
Elseti0ns-his Hopeful espee-
tattons Of the New
Parliament.

NEw YORK, March 1.-THE Hon.
Charles Stewart Parnell returned to this
city last night from the West, on his
way home to Ireland, to take part in the
struggle which has been precipitated by
the unexpected dissolution OF Pariia
ment. He sailed to-day. He expects
that tho whole power Of the British gov
ernment will be exerted to prevent, II
possible, his again representing the
county OF Meath, and he has therefore
determined TO suspend his labors in this
country until the parliamentary cleo
tions are over. Then he intends TO re.
turn and resume active exertions Tor
the relief OF the Irish people.
Since the great initial meeting in Jan
uary ut Madison Square Garden, MIR.
Parnell has been engaged in holding
similar meetings throughout the coun-
try. lie went southwark as far as Rich
mond and eastward as lar as Boston,
westward as far Chicago, and northward
as far as Canada. From the first, Mr.
Parnell and Mr.. John B. Dillon, who
has accompanied him, have been care
full to draw the line distinctly between
the two objects for which they have been
laboring, and have persistently
refused 10 receive any money
for distribution, unless the purpose for
which the donors designed 1t was espe-
cially stated. In many cases money
has been offered with the request that
Mr.. Parnell make the division himself,
but this he has steadiastly refused 10 do.
He was determined that no one should
have the opportunity OF changing that he
hal permitted his zeal for the polit-
ical part OF his mission TO over.
ride his sympathy for the suflerings OF
the Irish people. He has also sought
to make ii clear that not penny OF the
money collected shall 10 devoted to his
personal advantage. He is man ol
large fortune. He says his own ex-
penscs aud the political purpose Tor
which he is collecting money do not in-
clude any expenditure for his own re-
election to Parliament, which will be de-
frayed out OF his private means.
An exact statement oi the sums oi
money collected by MIR. Pafneli, and
through his agency, can not yet be fur
nished, becauses in many cases collec-
tons and remittances have been made
In various parts Of the country and Tor
warded directly to Ireland. In all in
stances Mr.. Parnell has urged the ne
cessity Of promptly forwarding relief,
aud In this respect his work has
been quite different from that OF
other relief agencies The amount

League, Dublin, ior the relief Of the
