The rough, gray stones, as a child that STANDS
Caressing the wrinkled cheeks OF age.
You cross the threshold, and dim and small
Is the space that serves for the shepherds
The narrow aisle, the bare white wall,
The pews and the pulpit quaint and tall.

Hardly more spacious is than this,
But Poet and Pastor, blent in one,
Clothed with splendOr as of the sun,
That lowly and holy editice.
1t is not the wall of stone without

But the souls light shining round about,
And the ia tn that Overcometh doubt,
And the love that stronger is than hate.
We're I pilgrim in search Of peace,

In an eddy of wind, is the anchored soul.

Tree Planting and Preservation.

1t avails little during the winter
months to urge the horticultural in
terests of the country upon those who,
by the nature Of the case, are response
BILE for their advancement or retro
erosion. 1t is difficult in the dead
season to impress the public with the
utility and value of tree life in our
social and industrial economy. The
trees, whether standing alone or in
societies, look bare and uninteresting
in their leatless state, and with a good
wood and lumber market, the farmer
feels little conjunction in stripping
his lands for the sake of putting more
ready money in his pocket. For
esthetics he cares little, and he has
not yet come to accept the scientific
fact that trees are as essential to the
health of a community and the fertil-
ity of the soil as they are to the beauty
of the landscape. The case is deli
cate one. A man may pull down his
buildings if he pleases, and why may
he not cut down the trees upon his
own landP It is hardly enough to reply
that in the former case his own inter-
ests only are affected, while in the lat
ter the interests of the community
suffer. Self protection is almost q SUI
preme law of society, and would, there
fore, justify the restriction of the few,
perhaps, for the benefit of the many;
and yet it would not be easy to make q
restrictive statute whose justice would
be acknowledged by those who have
rich timber lands to sell.
Coaxing will effect more in the long
run than comrulsion; and the hope Of
reward is more healthful influence in
a community than the fear of punish
ment. 1t is not easy to prevent owners
of marketable timber tracts from dis
posing of their possessions in the way
that seems most advantageous to them
selves; but it is comparatively easy,
providing public spirit is aroused, and
public opinion made harmonious on this
question, to encourage tree planting.
This is best done, perhaps, by Offering
premiums to those who fulfil certain
conditions, and larger premiums to
those who show the most enterprise
and zeal in behalf of this important in
terest. Where village Improvement
societies have accomplished the most,
this method has generally been the one
employed to fill the town with handsome
shade trees. Where quick growth is
desired, the ash, horse-chestnut, tulip
tree. willow and ten or dozen other
varieties might be suggested; but there
seems to be nothing IN our latitude that
rewards patient waiting better than the
maple and the elm. An exchange sug-
gests Lombardy poplar. We would as
soon think of encouraging . weeping
willow in the lawn or dooryard; one is
like phantom, the other shroud.
The trees now opening into leaf and
flower ought to plead their own cause
better than we can do it. Nature is
holding her court and they are the
courtiers. The man who does not en-
terrain conservative feeling toward
them is an enemy of society. Boston

AS she felt that she was, by the arrest
and the exaggerated account of her con-
fession, which appeared, in big type in
all the papers-the headstrong, pleas
ure-seeking girl was entirely crushed.
and q reserved, silent, almost timid
woman took her place. She fell into
sort of apathy; would never go out of
the house, nor see friend; she seemed
always on the watch for some terror,
and suspicious of everybody that looked
at her.
Mrs. Walters feared she would be-
come insane, and by advice of her ply
stefan, shut up her house and took her
abroad. Years of travel and constant
change of scene removed that danger,
but nothing could ever make Stella
Walters young or gay again. The
shock had been too great, her spirit
seemed actually crushed out of her, and
she was wreck of herself.
Several years later, when Mrs. Wal
tiers and Stella had returned and settled
in distant part of the same city, for
Mrs. Walters did not dare to return to
the old place, they CHANGED one day to
be on Hudson River Railroad train,
which stopped at Sing Sing. While
they waited, gang of prisoners chain
ed together was marched to the train
to be transferred from the prison in
that town to Auburn. One of the men
looked up, and Stella, looking idly on,
caught his eye. To her horror, in spite
of all the changes, she recognized Mr..
Anderson, and at the same instant he
recognized her.
A horrid grin spread over bis feat
ures--which she had once thought SO
noble; he snatched of his prison cap,
and bowed to her with some of his old
grace, while the people iii the car look
ed around curiously, and Stclla-for the
second time in her life tainted dead

panion.

mother knew of this phase of her visits,
she would not approve of it.
Stella always went with fancy work
or a new piece of music in her hands,
and Mrs. Walters did not notice that
the work did not progress much.
Besides, just at this time, she was
much occupied with cares in her own
house.
She had succession of losses in
the most unaccountable way; silver
spoons, money, table-linen, jewelry,
seemed to fairly melt out of the house.
She discharged two or three servants,
locked her closets and drawers with the
greatest care, and yet one thing after
another would disappear, till not a
place in the house seemed secure except
the safe.
At last, events came to a climax.
One night when John-the only man in
the house was away, the house was
robbed. Every bit Of silver, rich linen,
and fine clothing was taken; even the
safe was emptied of its treasures.
Mrs. Walters was greatly disturbed.
She at once set detectives to work ON
the case. Meanwhile, the intimacy
went on next door, and Stella had news
to tell every time she went to the Stu
art House.. ~.a
It was about this time that she began
to be conscious that she was watched
by some one. The same mans face,
though in different dress, was continually
confronting her, and looking sharply
at her. At first, she thought it very
romantic, and made-a lively story out
of it to laugh at over at Keenans, but
to her surprise. they did not laugh, but
seemed concerned and asked many
questions. @
This aroused her indignation against
the unknown, and she began to feel
annoyed; but, pleased or vexed, it was
all the same; still she saw the man
wherever she went.
She did not tell her mother; in fact,
she hardly talked to her mother now
about herself, or what she did. She
feared, if she should tell her it would

crowd that is known to be large holders of both

trade was light during the greater part of

noon board there was a ripple, thenla wave and
the tidal food struck, and, as the result from
stupid deal, there was considerable activity
aroused. 1t was really laughable to see the
active sellers of the morning climbing over
each other to get back their bundle. Then the
question was asked on all sides, what's the mat

THE FREEDMAN'S BANK.

Gen. HoiCard Summoned to Explain Some
Queer Observation-Disclosures Reforms
in It's MaMaqenenf.
Washington Special, Feb. 21.I
Gen. o. q. Howard is expected here to 60
before the Senate select committee iRvesti-
eating the Freedman's Savings and Trust
company for. examination next Thursday.
The committee has obtained large amount
of testimony, and more or less of it has
been given to the public from time to time
but until all of it can be read connectedly
and sifted carefully in conjunction with facts
presented with reference to and in explana-
ton of very loose, if not criminal, conduct
in bookkeeping, no accurate statement of the
extent of the mismanagement will be pessi-
BILE. United States Marshal Fred Doug
lass, who is a member of the board of
trustees of the Freedman's bank, is
affording the committee valuable assistance
in the way of suggestion and advice. An
important bill reported from the committee
last June proposed to repeal that part of the
banks original charter which authorizes the
selection and appointment of three commits
sioners to manage the affairs of the bank.
In lieu of three commissioners it is proposed
to direct the secretary of the treasury to ap
point the comptroller of the currency COM
missioner-which in itself is regarded by
the committee as very good thing
to debut the bill requires that the
approval of a majority of the board
of trustees of the bank shall be OBJ
tanned before the secretary of the treasury
may so appoint the comptroller of the cur
rency commissioner. This feature of the
bill will be stricken out by the committee,
because it is convinced by later Developments
and more recent information that q majority
of the board of trustees would not approve
such appointment. The necessity for dis
pensine with the services of the present
commissioners is shown conclusively by the
fact that the expenses of running the bank
amount to upward of $4,000 year, $4,000
of which goes to three commissioners, who
do not themselves attend to the business
of the bank, but shirk it upon
other employees. By this bill
the comptroller of the currency shall for his
services as commissioner receive, in addition
to his present salary as comptroller, an an
nual salary of 81 900, to be paid out of the
funds of the institution. He is to give bond
in the sum of $4,000, and is to be then
vested with possession and legal title to all
the property of the company, and shall have
all the rights, prerogatives and privileges,
and perform all the duties that were con-
ferred and enjoined upon the three commits
sioners mentioned, namely: right and au-
thority to compound and compromise debts
due to and liabilities of the company.
