Baby is Dead.

"Baby is dead!" Three little words
passing along the line, copied some
where and soon forgotten. But after all
was quiet again l leaned my head upon
my hand and fell into deep reverie of
all that those words may mean.
Somewhere dainty form, still and
cold, unclasped by mothers arms to-
night. Eyes that yesterday were bright
and blue as skies of June dropped to-
night beneath white lids that no voice
can ever raise again.
Two soft hands, whose rose leaf fingers
were wont to wander lovingly around
mothers neck and face, loosely holding
white buds, quietly folded in cofined
rest.
Soft lips, yesterday ripping with
laughter, sweet as woodland brook falls,
gay as trill of forest bird, tonight unre-
sponsive to kiss or call of love.
A silent home-the patter of baby feet
forever hushed-a cradle bed impressed.
Little shoes half-worn-dainty garments
shoulder knots of blue to match those
eyes of yesterday, folded with aching
heart away.
A tiny mound, snow-covered, in some
quiet graveyard.
A mothers cropping touch, in uneasy
slumber, for the fair head that shall
never rest upon her bosom. The low
sob, the bitter tear, as broken dreams
awake to sad reality. The hopes of
future years wrecked, like fair ships that
suddenly go down in sight of land.
The watching of other babies, dimpled,
laughing, strong, and this one gone!
The present agony OF grief, the future
emptiness of heart, all held in those
three little words, "Baby is dead!"
Indeed, it is well that we can copy
and soon forget the words so freighted
with woe to those who receive and send
them. And'yet it cannot harm us now
and then to give a tender thought to
those for whom our careless pen stroke
is preparing such weight of grief

The HindOO Juggler.

Much has been said about the remark
able receptions practiced by the Hindoo
jugglers, and their skill in performing
their tricks is simply marvellous. In a
recent letter from India, gentleman
narrates his experience as follows:
CARRYING in the city in the morning,
Dick and made up our minds to wit
ness some of the illusions about which
we had heard so much, and which are
generally performed by travelling con-
jurers and mountebanks. After asking
for information on the subject, we as
certained that there was to be given
that afternoon, in one of the small halls
of the town, a performance which, as
our guide told us, was not to be excelled,
as one of the most skillful and adept
jugglers in the country was to preside.
We found the place, after some trouble,
and after paying our dues at the gate to
an old Indian with gaudy turban
wound around his head we entered the
place, which was low, dingy building
with accommodations for about a hun.
dred persons. At the extreme end of the
hall was a platform, over which dirty
red curtains were draped. When we
entered the juggler had already COM
menced his performance, and was
whirling several dangerous looking
knives around in the air. After going
through various movements with those
weapons, he exchanged them for some
flaming brands, which he tossed about
from hand to hand with the rapidity of
lightning, forming various lines and
circles of fire as the brands turned over
and over. He continued this dangerous
sport for while, and then going to the
table on which he kept his parapherna.
liza he took up large black ball, and
tossed it up in the air; as it rose to a
certain height it broke into about a
dozen small balls, which on striking the
floor changed into as many snakes,
which rapidly glided away, leaving no
trace of tho balls. We were completely
puzzled by the illusion, and watched
with breathless interest to see what he
would do next; but still greater was our
surprise when he began whistling in a
low tone, and the snakes came gliding
back upon the stage again The iuggler
snatched them up in his hand one by
one, and holding them by their tails
swung them round and round his head
until our eyes could scarcely follow
them. With sudden jerk he stopped
the motion, and holding up his hand
we saw there, instead of the snakes, the
original black ball. He did many
other wonderful tricks, among which
was the well known basket illusion, also
the old trick of making tree loaded
with ripe pomegranates grow from 6
small flower-pot filed with earth. After
witnessing his wonderful performance
we left the hall, well pleased with wha
we had SEEM" tN

call and take tea at the English En-

cautions were taken to insure his safety,
and his coachman, unknown to him, in

He had then worn, sad air, as though

cronies, and occasionally kill bear.

Three Distinguished Confederate GEN.
erals.

The following is an extract from JEFF
ferson Davis's memoirs:
When Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston
reached Richmond he called upon me,
and for several days at various intervals
we conversed with the freedom and con-
tldence belonging to the close friendship
which had existed between US for many
years. Consequent upon a remark made
by me, he asked me to what duty /
would assign him, and when answered
Ill the West, he expressed his pleasure at
service in that section, but inquired how
he was to raise his command, and for
the first time learned that he had been
nominated and confirmed as a General
in the army of the Confederacy.
Gen. Robert E. Lee had been com.
missioned by the State of Virginia as
Major General and commander of her
army. When the army was transferred,
after the accession of Virginia to the
Confederate States, he was nominated to
be Brigadier General in the Confed-
crate army, but was left, for various rea.
sons, in command of the forces in Vir.
ginia. After the seat of Government
was removed from Montgomery to Rich.
mond the course of events on the South.
ern Atlantic coast induced me to direct
Gen. Lee to repair thither. Before leav-
ing he said that while he was serving in
Virginia he had never thought it needful
to inquire about his rank, but now, when
about to go into other States and meet
officers with whom he had not been pre-
viously connected, he would like to be
informed upon that point. Under recent
laws authorizing appointments to higher
grades than that of his first commission
he had been appointed full General;
but so wholly had his heart and mind
been consecrated to the public service
that he had not remembered, if he ever
knew, of his advancement.
In November, 1861, reports became
current that the enemy were concen-
trating troops west of the Valley of the
Shenandoah with a view to descent
upon it. The vigilant, enterprising and
patriotic soldier, Gen. 7. j. Jackson,
whose steadiness under fire at the battle
OF Manassas had procured for him the
sobriquet of "Stonewall," was then on
duty as District Commander of the
Shenandoah Valley. He was West
Virginian, and, though he had not ac-
quired the fame which subsequently,
shed luster upon his name, he possessed
a well-deserved confidence among the
people of that region. Ever watchful
and daring in the discharge of any duty,
he was intensely anxious to guard his
beloved mountains of Virginia. This,
stimulating his devotion to the general
welfare of the Confederacy, induced him
to desire to march against the enemy,
who had captured Romney. On the
goth of November, 1861, he wrote to the
War Department, proposing an expedi-
ton to Romney, in Western Virginia.
1t was decided to adopt his proposition,
Endorsed by the commander of the de-
partment, and, further to insure sue
cess, though not recommended in the
Endorsement, his old brigade, then in
the army of the Potomac, was selected
as a part of the command with which
he was to make the campaign.

America are all rich in curious animals
and what are called the forest fishes
might be mentioned. They are never
seen except at the times when the rivers
overflow and spread through the forests.
The little fishes then appear in the shall
low pools. That initself would not seem
strange, but fish like them are never
seen or found in the river itself. When
the waters go down again they disap-
pear; where to, or where they come
from at such stated intervals, is an eng

CHAPTER I.

Miriam Mcintyre stood idly beside

narrow trimming of red, while at her
snowy throat nestled blush rose-she
stood out beautiful picture against the
dark background of the room in which
the shadows of approaching night were
rapidly darkening. One could see by
the calm, joyful smile that now and then
lifted across her face-each fit being a
complete act in itself-that her thoughts
were of pleasant nature. In three
short weeks she would be happy bride,
welded to a man in whose love her
whole life was centered. While thus en-
gagged in rosy meditation some one

"Come in" said Miriam.

eyes were attracted by an article headed
