Our spirits live like flowers in the lieht.
Nor feel nor fear the sting of earthly pain,

Vain are the hopes and fears and doubts of

We dream our lives away, and ask not why.

Adams considerably discomposed, and
that was on the present occasion.

and slight smile played on her
features.

previous situation in q nobleman's
family, a very correct way Of speak

ners, was fond of dressing up in her
holidays. and frequenting places
of public amusement, where she usually
attracted good deal of attention. Her
mistress having being called away from
home to nurse sick relative, had
allowed her servant to 90, as she
thought, to visit her parents in the
country; but the girl, having her wages
in her pocket, had preferred to remain
with an acquaintance in London, where
she enjoyed her Christmas holidays
very much to her own satisfaction,
until her accident put stop to her ma
neuvers, or rather changed her field of
action. Finding, as she recovered, that
she was being addressed as '.Miss
Stead" and that she was the object of
much interest and attention, it
seems to me judging by what ex-
perlence OF human nature on its female
side have since acquired very
remarkable that she preferred to keep
up the delusion; golden silence being
her main line of tactics. And, fair
readers, do you think it Gerry contrary
to your experience of human nature on
its male side, that an Otherwise cx-
ceedingly acute young man should be
the subject of q delusion of this
particular kind.
The lady spoke very kindly to
the girl; and guessing, 1 fancy,
how matters stood, said some
very graceful things to Adams. Suisse
quen1y, you will perhaps be glad to
hear, she proved very kind friend to
him, and her influence was of no small
assistance to him in his future profess
sional advancement. She became. in
fact, quite mother to him, though not
a mother-in-law.
l really do not know what befel the
girl, except that, at her own desire, the
lady obtained for her {" a situation in the
country, out of the way of temptation
and that she proved to be a faithful
servant.
l. am sorry to have to state that pub
lie interest in this case at St. Michaers
somewhat rapidly declined after Mrs.
Stead's visit; perhaps because, as the
Lancet said, the interesting symptoms
had all disappeared. But 1 said then,

A phase of hero worship has de-
veloped, or rather cropped out, among
the negroes Of a certain portion Of
Lee county, which is singularly pe-
culiar and at the same time very sug.
gestive ofan interesting chain of etho.

nation, had in his charge a member
ship numbering, perhaps, three thou
sand, making up his four churches.
He was a typical specimen Of the ne
gro clergy and welded almost an alb
solute power, body and soul, over bis
large congregation. "Brudder" Bar.
ber's word was law and gospel unto
his followers, and mona ever dared to
question Ais authority or dispute his
sway. Vehement, magnetical and
powerful, one swing from his long
arms and a chant from his strangely
musical voice, would set a hundred
sisters swaying their bodies TO and fro
and as many brothers keeping time Ia
the weird rythm with heating feet; in
awful interest the sermon world
grow, q medley Of defamation
and recitation, until one wild
%deafening cry brings to a climax tbe
ecstatic JOY in shouts and frances and
meanings. Last summer the preacher
died aud his friends and followers re-
fused to be comiorted. He was hon
