A Brave Mans heath.

On the morning of Raleigh's execution
his keeper brought cup of sack to him
and inquired how he was pleased with it
GAS well as he who drank of ST. Giles
bowl as he rode to Tyburn,'' answered
the knight, and said it was good drink
if man might but tarry by it.
"Prithee, never fear, Ceeston," cried
he to his old friend, Sir Hugh, who was
repulsed from the scafold by the sheriff,
s'I shall have place.
A man, bald from extreme age, pressed
forward, "to see him and pray for him, -
he said
Raleigh took richly-embroidered cap
from his own head, and placing it on that
of the old man, said: "Take this, good
friend, to remember me, for you have
more need of it than l."
Farewell, my lords" was his cheerful
parting reply to courtly group who
affectionately took their leave of him; ~
have a long journey before me, and l
must cen say goodbye"
CHOW am going to God," said that
heroic spirit, as he trod the scaffold; and
gently touching the axe, added, "This is
a sharp medicine, but it will cure all dis
cases.
The very headsman shrank from be-
heading one so illustrious and brave,
until the unequaling soldier addressed
him:
"What dost thou fear? Strike, mani"
In another moment the mighty soul
had fled from its mangled tenement. The
head, after being shown on either side of
the scaffold, was put into a leather bag,
over which Sir Walters gown was thrown
and the whole conveyed away in mourn
ing coach by Lady Raleigh. 1t was pre-
served by her in case during the twenty
nine years which she survived her hus-
band, and afterward with no less piety
by their affectionate son, Carew, with
whom it is supposed to have been buried
at West Horsley, in Surrey. The body
was inferred in the chancel, near the al
tar of St. Margaret's, Westminster.

Applied Theology.

At meeting of the Woburn conference
Farmer Allen, of Wakefield, related the
following anecdote:
One Sunday morning, while a certain
deacon was preparing for church, a wan
dering wayfarer, or in modern parlance,
tramp appeared at his door, pleaded
his hunger, and begged for something to
eat. The deacon locked solemn and
frowning, but reluctantly got loaf of
bread and began to cut it, but while do
ing so took occasion to admonlsh the beg
gar concerning the error of his ways. At
ter reminding him that 1t was the holy
Sabbath day he was Decorating, he asked
him if he knew how to pray.
"No," was the reply.
"Then," SAID the deacon, "I'I learn
you," and he commenced to repeat the
Lords prayer
But just as he uttered the first words,
sour Father" the beggar interrupted
him with the question, "What, is he your
father and mine, tooY"
eyes," the deacon replied.
"Why," exclaimed the beggar, 1--WE are
brothers, then, amt we? Can't you cut
that slice little thicker"

TWILIG HI SONG.

Twilight is fading,
Soft dews are falling,
Rose hearts invading,
West winds are calling
My heart from my bosom
To go forth to you.
Starry-eyed flowers,
Whispering goodnight"
To fast fleeting hours,
Close to the dim light,
Their hearts pure and tender,
While mine opens to you.
Birds in the branches
Vespers are singing,
Songs from their hearts are
Ever upspringtng,
Bat sweeter than theirs, is
Ny hearts song of you.
Night, as though fearing
To silence the singers,
Waits Luna's appearing
To lift with bright fingers
The deep vail of evening
That hides me from you.
/, too, am waiting
Waiting, l listen;
I see not the moOnbeams,
Nor dewdrops that glisten-
My soul all entranced,
Knows nothing but you.

THE HIGHWAY COW,

The hue of her hide was dusky brown,
Her body was lean and her neck was slim;
One horn was turned up and the other turned
down,
She was keen of vision and long of limb;
With Roman nose and short stump tail,
And ribs like the hoops on a homemade pail.
Many mark did her body bear;
She had been target for all things known;
On many scar the dusky hair
Would grow no more where it once had
grown;
Many passionate, parting shot
Had left upon her a lasting spot
Many and many well-aimed stone,
Many Il brickbat OF goodly size,
And many q cudgel swiftly thrown,
Had brought the tears to her lovely eyes;
Or had bounded off from her bonny back,
With noise like the sound of rifle crack.
Many day had she passed in the pound
For helping herself to her neighbours corn;
Many cowardly cur and hound
Had been transfixed on her crumpled horn;
Many teapot and old tin pail
Had the farmer boys tied to her time-worn
tail.
Old Deacon Gray was pious man,
Though sometimes tempted to be profane,
When many weary mile he ran,
To drive her out of his growing grain.
Sharp were the pranks she used to play
To get her fill and to get away.
She knew when the deacon went to town;
She wisely watched him when he went by,
He never passed her without frown
And an evil CLEAN in each angry eye;
He would crack his whip in a surly way,
And drive along in his ''one-hoss shay"
Then at his homestead she loved to call,
Lifting his bars with her crumpled horn;
Nimbly scaling his garden wall,
Helping herself to his standing corn;
Eating his cabbages, one by one,
Hurrying home when her work was done.
His human passions were quick to rise,
And striding forth with savage cry,
With fur blazing from both his eyes,
AS ightnings flash in summer sky,
Redder and redder his face would grow,
And after the creature he would 60
Over the garden, round and round,
Breaking his pear and apple trees;
Tramping his melons into the ground,
Overturning his hives of bees;
Leaving him angry and badly stung,
Wishing the old cows neck was wrung.
The moses grow on the garden walls;
The years went by with their work and play
The boys of the village grew strong and tall
And the gray-haired farmers passed away,
One by one as the red leaves fall,
But the highway cow outllved them all.

Natures NightWOrk.

An old Ruby Hill miner, who has had
fifteen years experience under ground,
says he has observed one peculiar fact,
that between twelve and two o'clock in
the night, if there is loose stone or bit
of earth in the mine it is sure to fall
Says he: "About this time it seems that
everything begins to stir, and immediate
ly after twelve O'Clock, although the
mine has been as still as tomb before,
you will hear particles of rock and earth
coming down, and if there is a caving
piece of ground in the mine, it is sure to
give way

and angry eyes of his accuser, he laid his
hand quietly ON the back of chair, and
stood at ease almost smiling,

"He's a-he's a-he's a." The word

but the quiet eyes that met him, the un-
changed color, the steady mouth, checked
that word, and left o silence, during
which the count resumed his seat, while
Fairweather stood quivcring with I'M

"Much obliged for your lmpertinent

at last, rather dryly, "but my daughter

"What?' cried Fairweather.
''No; it's all about NY"
"Allow me-" interrupted Won Held.
"I am asking the sanction of Mr.. Warren
upon my engagement with his niece,
Miss Barbara Chase"
Fairweather's shame was swallowed up
in establishment.

A StOrk as a Mouser.

A LARGE and handsome whooping
stork, says the Council Bluffs No,apar;el,
can be seen daily strutting around the
yard at the residence of Prof. Paige in
this city. The elongated bird was pur-
chased by the professor during a visit
to Mexico some months since and has
become quite tame. Among other food
that the stork relishes is nice tat
mouse. Mrs. Paige has a small wire
trap in the house, and whenever mouse
happens to wander therein he becomes
sweet morsel for his storkship. The
other day Mrs. Paige noticed the bird
standing near the barn watching in
tently at a ANAL hole leading beneath
the building. The stork remained in
all attitude OF watchfulness for nearly
half an hour, and Mrs. Paige, becoming
curious, concluded to watch and see
what followed. Finally she saw .
mouse creep into sight from under the
barn. and tia same instant the intelli-
gent stork poupceA down on the mouse
and took him ms killing it first and
then eating it: After performing this
intelligent feat, thu stork resumed his
vigilance at tho mouse hole, and after
watching sharply for over an hour
seemed to grow weary of his work or
get out OF patience, and marching to
the house entered the kitchen, and
picking up the mouse-trap, from which
he had SO often been fed, he returned
to the barn and set the trap down near
the hole, evidently approaching the use
of the trap, and believing that It would
catch mouse for him. If anyone has
got brighter bird than that we would
like to hear from it.
