CUPJD's FIRST DIP.

Cupid one day amid wild flowers playing
Wild nowers-the fttest for him
In the bright stream, by whose bank he was
straying,
Longing TO bathe-but the boy could not swim
He venturcd his foot In n shallow hard by,
When the nymph Of the stream, with sharp,
hooking cry,
Said, Cupid, don't dabble-be cautious or bold,
Jump in, or keep out,
II you dabble no doubt
You'll go home with cough,
And the ladies will scoh-
For the very worst thing ia for Love to take cold"
Cupid, thus tainted, jump'd in, nothing daunted,
well DONE" said the nymph to the boy
"Once DER head and ears, boy, away with your
fears
The wilder the plunge, oh, the brighter the
joy!
To give you this lesson, sweet Cupid, is luck,
With your dear little wings, too-Im sure
you're duck
But, wild duck, don't dabblc,"
The nymph said to him,
"Once DER head and ears,
Away with your fears,
For Love never sinks when determined to swim!"

THE HI Fro.


The cannons all were silent, the bugle ceased TO
sound,
And many valiant warrior lay lifeless on the
ground;
For night had forced an armistice upon the eager
foes,
And all around was quletness, save where the cry
arose
From wounded and from dying, or when the war
horse neghed,
For man and beast alike had felt the kecnness of
the blade.
And now II lonely maiden Is searching DER the
plain,
For she would find her lover, to kiss II he be
slain;
To tend his wounds if wounded, to battle his
aching head;
And still she weeps, for much she fears he's mum.
bered with the dead.
For hours she wanders slowly, and looks at every
face,
TILL weary, sad and foot sore, size leaves the hor.
rid place.
But where, oh, where's her heroy For his coun.
try has he died?
And was he foremost in the iight-the bravest on
his side.
She walked Till nearly daybreak, in sad and pen
sive mood,
When suddenly the lost one before the maiden
stood.
JOY! joy! he had not persisted! Ere was. the
fight begun
The owner Of that gallant form had turned about
and run! -Brookiyn Edgle

MARGARET OF ANJOU.
BY MISS LYDIA STRAwN.

After the first joy of meeting was over Rem
placed his daughter in humble castle at Yer
dun, on the banks Of the Moselle
Here, enclrcled by the lovely plains OF Lor
ralne, her mothers last inheritance, utterly sc
cluded from the wild, bitter nflic, which hat
devastated her English life Margaret passet
seven drcary, sorrowful, yet strangely Tranquil
years, AS months rolled by tidings came
which fell with crushing force upon her ten
derby loyal heart. Her poor husband hat
been recaptured, dragged ANONYMOUSLY tc
London, and was now langulshing IN miser
able captivity. One last promise of future
happiness was left to her IN the person of hel
child. With utter and unweared devotion
she toiled to prepare him for his great destiny
She procured for him the most accomplished
teachers, and with tireless patience cultivated
IN his person and character every princely and
manly grace She burned INTO his soul the
story OF his fathers wrongs and painted with
glowing eloquence the majestic inheritance
awaiting HIM over the sea.
In liG9 startling intelligence came to the
castle of Verdun which broke the monotony
Of this quiet life forever,-sent the light of am.
bition to enkinde Margarel's dark eyes and
the smile of hope to glow upon her lips.
Warwick, the klng-maker of England the
man who held the scepter of real power had
quarreled with Edward,-h vowed ia stein
anger that the naughty hand which had lifted
HIM to the throne should set him down again,
and was now coming 10 France to seek the
pardon of his injured queen and place upon
her brow her righttul diadem.
IIeartless LOUIS, who cared nothing for the
beautiful woman,-the once beloved cousin
as she knelt in anguish at his feet did care
most profoundly for the redemption of his
English mortgage, and for the sake of the
bond that secured his pound of flesh was anx.
ious to reseat Margaret on the throne of Eng
land. He summoned Margarets father and
influential friends TO meet at Tours. History
tells us that at this council Margarers proud
composure was utterly broken, and encircled
by her fathers arms she wept her happy tears
upon his breast
But she could not forgive Warwick Her
indignation famed out in grand and glowing
words: He had been the chief author of the
downfall Of her husband, and of oil the calami
ties and sorrows which had since beiallen her
and her son. Even if she were willing TO for
give him the intoerable wrongs which he
had inflicted upon her, it would be very pre-
judicial to her husbands cause TO enter into
ally agreement or alliance with him whatever;
for all her party and friends In England, whom
Warwick had done SO much to injure and
who had so long looked upon him as their
worst and deadliest foe, would be wholly alien.
ated from her If they were to know that she
had taken him into favor, and thus she would
lose much more than she would gain.
Most eloquently and passlona,ely did Wa.-
wick plead his case. He too had received bit
