TWO JOURNEYS.

II go on journey far away"
He said-and no stopped and kissed me them
"Over the ocean for many day
Goodbye" and ne kissed ME once again.
But only few short months had fled.
When again answered my husbands kiss;
II could not tarry away" he said;
There is never land as fair as this"
Again stood by my husbands side,
II 60 on journey, sweet, to-day;
Over the rivor the boatmen glide
Goodbye; shall linger long away;"':
''Ah, he will come back soon, know"
| said, as I stopped for the parting kiss;
''He cannot tarry he told me so,
There is never q land so fair as this"
But many month and many year
Have flown since my darling went away.
Will he never come back to meet me here!
Has he found the region Of perfect day?
Over the ocean he went and came;
Over the river, and fingers there!
On, pallid boatman! call my name
Show me the region wondrous fair:
The Argosy.

Pigeon in French.

An amusing story is waited from the sun
ny shores of France. A young American,
whose knowledge of the French language
was confined to his careful study Of con-
versation book, was being shown through
one Of the old churches of Paris, the object
of interest which it contained being pointed
out by an attache of the buildings. Arich-
ly decorated altar attracted the attention Of
the American, and pointing to the white
marble figure of a dove, or pigeon, which
adorned the arch way over the altar, he in
quired IN alleged French what one ought to
call it in proper French: THAT" said the
attendant, "est le saint esprit" (the Holy
Ghost. Immediately the American drew
from his pocket notebook and pencil, and
as was his custom, he proceeded to note
down his newly acquired knowledge in this
manner: "Pigeon, in French, called saint
esprit" Now our American youth had an
object in asking the French word for pigeon.
He wanted pigeon for bis supper. and now

THE OLD FAMILIAR FACES.

Drinking late, sitting late with my bosom GRO

All, all are gone, the old familiar faces

Closed are her doors on me I must not see
her
All, all gone, the old familiar faces.
had friend, kinder friend has no man;
Like an migrate, left my friend abruptly:
Left him to muse on the old familiar faces.
Ghost-like paced round the haunts Of my
childhood:
Earth seemed a eesert I was bound to ira verse,
Seeking to ind the old familiar faces.
Friend of my bosom, thou more than brother,
Why vert thou not born in my fathers dwell
ing?
So might we talk OF the old familiar faces
How some they have died and some they have
left me,
And some are taken from me; all are departed;
All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.

A Romantic Life.

Beacons6eld's life possesses all the charm
of romance, because from first to last, it
has been battle. History affords no par
allelto the ambition of this man. A Jew to
rule England! Absurd-impossible! It
was ss if some Indian-some obscure de-
scendant of Montezuma-should aim his
hopes at the presidency of this republic.
The idea of Jew in the house of COM
mons seemed revolutionary enough; but a
Hebrew among the Lords and an Israelite
at the head of the government simply
n4onstrous! But Beaconsfeld not only
raised himself by his genius-he elevated
the whole jewish race. Once it was not re-
spectacle to be Jew; and proceeding on
this principle, nobleman in the house
of commons had the bad taste to allude
sneeringly to Disraeli's origin. The taunt
was mean-the reply royal. Springing to
his feet, his dark eyes flashing like swords,
he exclaimed: eyes, lam a Jew! When
the ancestors Of the honorable gentleman
who has flung this fact in my face as
taunt and imputation-when the
ancestors of that honorable gen.
tleman, repeat, were brutal savages in an
unknown island, mine were priests in the
temple. feel every fibre of my being
thrill with the traditions Of my people. -

Scientific Notes.

The Brush Electric Light Company, which
is about to make the experiment of light
ing some of the streets of Cincinnati, has
asked permission to suspend some of it's
wires from the poles Of the telephone COM
pany. The directors of the latter company
object, on the ground that accidents have
already occurred from the proximity of the
telephone electric light wires, and they are
unwilling to have their subscribers exposed
to the risk of having the electric current d.
verted through their bodies.
In recent surgical operation for fistula
at University college, London, DR.. Berkely
Hill made novel use of the electric light
to illuminate the passage. A fine platinum
wire twisted into knot was enclosed ina
small glass chamber, which in turn was
surrounded by another glass bulb. A cur
rent Of water was made to flow through the
space between the glasses in order to pre-
serve a low temperature around the light.
Ac ontinuuns galvanic current strong enough
to keep the fire at white heat, enabled
to the edge or the assure.
It is interesting to record a triumph of
engineering skill and perseverance, says the
Athen9um. On Saturday, March 8, at the
Ashton Moss colliery, in Lancashire, the
main seam of coal was cut at the depth of
1891 feet. This is the deepest pit in the
United Kingdom, Rose Bridge colliery,
which was the deepest previous to this sink
ing, being only 2,46O feet. The tempera-
ture in the Ashton Moss colliery at $50 yards
was 70 degrees Fair.
Prof. Won Tieghem notes that when the
soil is very damp, the cells in the roots of
an apple-tree undergo alcoholic fermenta-
ton, causing the tree to presenta very sick
" appearance.

Thrilling Adventure.
From the Boston Journal.

From the Boston Journal.
A worthy citizen passing along quiet
street the other evening was brought to
halt by loud cries, evidently Of distress,
which proceeded from an upper story in
the house near him. "OA, Henry! Henry!
quick! the baby!' were the ejaculations.
wildly uttered by female voice which
startled the night. The citizen is man Of
generous impulses, and is never found
wanting in case of distress. To open the
front door, which luckily was unfastened,
and to fly up the stairs was the work of q
moment, when he found that the baby, the
pride of the family, the pledge of conjugal
love, the innocent bud of promise-had cut
a tooth.

From the Montreal Star.

When Lord Duferin was governor gen.
eral of Canada his hospitality was famous.
On one occasion, in consequence of letter
of intro luction which had been presented,
his lordship invited an ambitious New York
cad to dinner at Rideau Hall. Naturally
the ambitious cad was delighted. During
the evening terrific rain storm set in, and
Lady Dufferin considerably invited her
husbands guest to pass the night at the
Hall. Needless to say, he accepted and the
cup of his ambition was full. Shortly af-
ter he had retired Lady Duferin sent one Of
the footmen up to his room to see if he had
everything he wanted. The footman could
not find him. He was nowhere to be seen.
He had ran to his hotel in the pelting rain
to get his night shirt.
