LIVING. AND DEAD.

mother sits by the glowing hearth.
A she dreams of the days that will come no NOR
When the cottage echoed with youthful mirth
And the patter of feet on the kitchen floor;
When three little Jackets in
With three little hats hung the wall,
Aud three soft voices whispered low
The prayer that mother had taught to all
But the ruddy rays of the fire-light
Checker floor that is silent now,
And the mothers hand in vain to might
Reaches in search of upturned brow;
And the three little pegs stand brown and bare.
And the mother cries. on! but to see
The three little Jackets hanging there,
And the three fair boys who knelt by me-"
But one lies under the wave,
Down with the nameless dead
And one lies in southern grave
God alone knows the soldiers bed.
But the day will come When the trumpet's sound
Shall waken the dead to life again
From the wave, from the battle ground,
The mother knows, and it soothes her pain.
And what of the youth with the eye of light,
Tie last who clung to the mothers breast?
Better by far did he lie tonight.
Dead with the twain in their peaceful rest.
Better to die in his youthful grace
With never blot on his fair young name,
Than live with the curse of bloated face,
And soul that is steeped i'll the dregs of shame.
And never that mother wept. ween,
Such bitter tears for the boy who lies
Somewhere under the grasses green,
Or he who sleeps where the sea-gull flies
AS she weeps for the one death left to her
Her baby boy, who waketh
In the ranks of the great destroyer
With the seal of the drunkard on his brow

EASTER EGGS The custom of eating
eggs at Easter has been traced up not only
to the theology of Egypt but to the philos-
ophv of the PerSians, the Gauls the
Greeks, and the Romans-all Of whom re-
garded the egg as an emblem OF the uni
verse and the work OF Deity.
easter" says Goblin, land New Years
have been mrrked by similar distinctions.
Among the Romans the New Year is look
ed upon as the renewal of all things, and
is noted for the triumph of the Sun of
Nature, AS Easter is with the Christians for
the Son of Justice. the Savior of the world
over death by His resurrection"
The early Christians of Mesopotamia had
the custom OF dyeing and decorating eggs
at Easter. They were stained red in
memory of the blood of Christ shed at His
crucifixion, The church adopted the Gus
tom and regarded the eggs us the emblem
of resurrection, Us is evidenced by the
benediction of Pope Paul V. about 1910,
which reads thus: BLESS, . Lord, we
beseech Thee, this Thy creature of eggs,
that it may become u wholesome substance
to Thy faithful servants, eating it in thank
fnlness to Thee on account of the Lord.
Thus the custom of using eggs at Ia ter
time is established as having come down
TO us from great antiquity.
In this connection it is interesting to
know that in a royal roll of the times of
Edward L., preserved in the tower OF Lon
don, is an entry for the purchase of four
hundred eggs for use as presents ut Easter
is found.
To come to our own times, it is aston
shing to learn the enormous extent of the
Easter egg trade. In St, Petersburg,
last Easter, 10000,000 fancy eggs were
manufactured; they filled the market to
the utter banishment of real table eggs.
Some of the most expensive and beautiful
eggs were crystal ones, made at the lmpe-
rial glass cutting manufactory for an order
of the czar,
1t is estimated that in New York city
last Easter week 81 100000 was expended
in natural eggs, while many factories
employing from sixty to one hundred
workmen, are kept busy for two months
prior to Easter, manufacturing eggs for
the different cities throughout the United
States.

MEMORIES OF YORKTOWN. There is,
however, in the memories of Yorktown
even now much to draw living English
men and Americans nearer together, and
n4uestionably the bearing of General
Washington at the supreme m ment to-
ward his vanquished and humiliated ene-
my was of that character which it is meet
and right historians shonld mot willingly
let die When on the 18th of October,
1881, Lord CORVALLIS had lost his two
advanced redoubts by storm, he made an
attempt to escape with his rank and file
who were still fit for duty-rather more
than four thousand in number-acro,s the
river to Gloucester The attempt was
frustrated, as might have been expected
when it is remembered that the opposing
forces, French and American. vastly out
numbered the British, and that II French
fleet of more than thirty sail, under Comte
de Grasse, lay in the adjoining river and
roads. On the morning of the 17th of Oc-
tober Lord CORVALLIS accepted the inev-
table, and the terms of capiulation were
settled between him, as representing the
British side, and General Washington and
! the Comte de Rochambeau, as severally
Representing tIlt u vi hllltl
ica and France. But it is not generally
known that at the moment when Cornwall
lis surrendered to General Washington the
humbled Englishman simultaneously un-
covered his head. General Washing
ton, with characteristic thoughtfulness,
prayed him to put on his hat, as-the
weather being chilly and wet-there was
danger of his catching cold. 1t does
not much matter what now becomes of
me-" exclaimed the detected Englishman
to which, in a firm voice, General Wash
ington at once replied; "On the contrary
my lord | anticipate for you q long Ca
reer of distinction and honor in the service
of your king and country How truly
these generous and prophetic words re
borne out may be seen by those who care
to read the epitaph, upon the monument
erected by grateful country to Charles,
First Marquis CORVALLIS, in St. Pauls
cathedral Yet memories of this kind
serve only to remind us that, in Kembe's
beautiful words, " Brothers are brothers
evermore. No distance and, it may be
added, no bickering-" breaks their tie oI
blood"
England is, happily, on terms of the
closest amity both with France and the
United States, and no celebrations o
events which happened century since
are likely to diminish the cordiality of their
friendship.-Londor Telegram.
