The Air Line TO Europe.
From the Albany Press.

Mr.. S. G.. Gregory of this city has just
completed full working model of his last
invention. 1t is an air ship, and has oc-
cupied the entire time of the inventor for
many months. The vessel is sharp at
both bow and stern, the better to over
come the resistance of the atmosphere.
At either end are placed driving wheels
and ruddcrs. The latter are controlled
by one wheel situated amidships. The
cylinders, which contain 10000 cubic
feet of pure hydrogen each, are con-
structed of four thicbnesses of silk, the
ends being tipped with brass, and the
whole dashed to the gunwale by cords.
At either end are placed elevators or de-
pressors, controlled upon the principle Of
an Archimedian screw. The sleeping
rooms, dining rooms and cargo are all
provided for in the hold of the vessel.
Mr.. Gregory says the cylinders viii srls-
tain a weight of 10000 pounds, and that
the speed viii be over 30 miles an hour.
A trip to Europe can be made in four
days. The rudders are in line with
the keel, and serve to turn the boat as
required. 1t is intended TO sail the boat
at an altitude of 1000 feet. In case Of a
storm the elevators can be put in motion
and the ship raised above the line Of the
storm 1t Is proposed to buildan exhibit
ton ship, after which Mr.. Gregory Will
"ty" to Europe, starting in Che month
of July. The mechanical wonder has
been carefully examined by scientists and
engineers, who pronounce j! practicable.
The merits of the invention are safety
combined with speed.

hasn't been looking for you to come back.
Go to her, man. and the Lords blessing
be upon both of YOU"
So, grasping the hard, brown hand
Hiram Goldby took the path to the little
white cottage in which he had been born
forty-five years before. The sun had set
and the darkness was gathering, but q
little CLEAN of light streamed from the
window of his cottage. He drew near
softly, and standing ON the seat of the
porch, looked over the half curtain into
the neat, but poor sitting-room.
" 1t was not the grand house, Pearls
heritage in New York, but Pearl herself
was there. A slender woman, with a
pale, sweet face, and black hair smoothly
banded and gathered into rich braids at
the back Of her shapely head. Her dress
was plain dark one, with white ruffies,
CATS, and an apron.
She has been sewing, but her work
was put aside, and presently she came to
the open window and drew aside the cur
tain. She did not see the tall figure
drawn closely against the wall in the
narrow porch; but her dark eyes looked
mournfully toward the sea, glimmering
in the half light.
"My darling y she whispered, "are
you dead, and has your spirit come to
take mine where we shall part no more 2"
Only the wash of the waves below an
swered her. Signing softly, she said:
Is my darling coming? / feel him so
near to me, / could almost grasp him."
She stretched out her arms over the
lSt Il oil
ed her: Pearl Pearl /"
The arms that had so long grasped
only empty air were filed then, as Hiram
stood under the low window.
"Do not move, love, she whispered,
pressing her soft lips to his; 81 always
wake when you move"
But now" he said, "you are already
awake. See, Pearl, your trust was heaven
given. 1t is myself, your fond, true hus-
band, little one, who will never leave you
again.
alt is truel You have GOMEZ she
cried at last, bursting into torrent of
happy tears. 81 knew you were not
dead. You could not be dead, and my
heart not tell me-" 1t was long before
they could think of anything but the
nappllcSS OF reunion AFTER the many
years of separation, but at last, drawing
Pearl closer, Hiram whispered: al
walked from j, love, and am enor-
mously hungry"
And Pearls merry laugh chased the
last shadows from her happy face, and
she hustled about the room preparing
supper.
"Supper for two!" she cried, glee-
fully.
The grand house in New York is ten
anted by its owners, and Hiram goes to
sea no more; but in the summer time
two happy people come for a quiet month
to the little white cottage at Monkton,
and have always to listen to Davy's tale
of the evening when he was cutting
Hiram Goldby's tombstone, and ended
by smashing it into atoms.
"For," in the invariable ending of the
tale, pearl WAS right, and we were
wrong, all of us; for Hiram Goldby was
lost at sea, sure enough, but he was not
dead, and he came to her faithful love as
she always said he would"

There is Mt least ore shrewd negro in

the country recently, came upon a log
cabin surrounded by patch OF ground,
which negro woman was blowing with
team of girls. Near by the husband
and father was feedinga stout and healthy

hitch his mule to the pillow instead of his
daughters, he replied: Boss, dis mule

DE CAPO.

She sat at the old piano,
Her fingers, thin and pale
Ran over the yellow keyboard
The chords of the minor scale.
u r hands were withered and shrunken,
Her form with age was bent;
T lcy seemed twin spirits in look and tons
Herself and the instrument.
For the instrument, quaint and olden,
With its single tromuant strings,
Wac little more than spirit.
And its tone seemed whirr OF wings;
And she-the koen chisel Of sorrow
And the crue, BURN Of care,
Had cut in Der dear old features
Deep burrows here and there,
Till al that was gross and earthly
Had been chipped and smoothed away.
And disclosed the patient angel
Behind it, thin mask Of clay.
She paused; aud with upturned features
And reminiscent eyes
Was translated In one brief moment
Back TO young hfe's Paradise.
And the lovely spirit Of childhood,
50 truetnr, and pure, and sweet,
Came back and gioIihcd her
From bcaming forehead to feet.
Then che swept the keys, and the muHio
OF vanished years leapt out;
Each uutc was patter of merry feet,
And glceful childish shout.
And fingers dimpled and rosy
Tripped DER the enchanted Keys,
And the music wac 1s fresh as young laughter
Or the MARBLE Of birds IN the trees.
No strain from the old tone-masters,
No burt Of harmony grand
Spring from the old piano
At the touch Of that magic hand.
But the simple airs of her girlhood
Ripped in melody sweet,
Ar in days when her sky was al sunshine,
And the hours were an happy IA feet:
And sparkled the hqht that vanished
Frua eyes long dried Of tears,
And twinked feet 10 her music
That have inoullcred in dust for years.
And rs WE watched and listened,
She seemed t. onr moistcned eyes
Already beyond the portals
That open toward the skies.
Nor seemed it longer n marvel
That when, IN the morning gray,
The disciplcs came TO the tomb of the Lord
To bear the body away
They found but his cast-oH garment,
With it, odor OF aiocs and myrrh,
And the stone rolled away from tho open door
OF an empty gepulchre.

How Sam Houston Happened to Go to
Texas.

From the Fort Smith (Ark) Elevator.l
During Sam Houston's residence iii
the Cherokee nation, west of Arkansas,
he lived with a daughter Of old Captain
John Rogers, an Indian, about two and
half miles west of Port Gibson. He was
a merchant, bat tried to conform to the
WAYS and habits of the Indians, and in
dress wore the hunting-shirt, huckskin
leggings, and breecb-clout of the Indians.
For the greater part of his stay here he
was under the influence OF liquor, when
it could be had, and he was seldom with
out it. He seemed, after residence of
two years, to tire of the part he was act
ing, and during short periods of sober
ness became morose and sullen. He was
evidently comparing in his mind his
present mode OF life with the past, or a
worthless, drunken white Indian with the
proud governor of Tennessee.
1t was directly after one Of his long
drunken spells that some Of the Texas
Cherokees brought news of the war be-
tween Texas and Mexico Houston,
although not yet sober, walked cut on
the banks of the Grand river with John
Henry, a merchant. Throwing himself
down an the ground, be was silent for
some time. At length, starting ",
quickly, he said: Henry, let us go %
1exas. | am tired of this country and
tl4is life. Go with me, and l will make
a fortune for us both. You a merchant
I a merchant We are no more fit for
merchants than HI is for a powder
house. | am gong. In that new state
| will make man of myself again. He
began Mt once making preparation for
the. Mt that time, long journey. Casting
at once aside all his Indian attire, he
care out dressed as white man, and at
once refusing the use of liquor offered
him frequently, rs if by the stroke ofthe
magician's wand, he looked the man and
hero he very soon became after his arrival
In Texas.
