List,

1t is now announced that List, who
has been inhaling the Intoxicating breeze
OF public rapture at Antwerp, will sue
ceed Rubenstein in London. The grand
festival in his honor at Antwerp called
together the chief representatives of
musical art on the continent, and since
the entrance of Charles v, quiet, staid
Antwerp never saw such excitement.
List is pictured as growing old, and the
likeness to Dante, almost reproach to
him in his youth, is now an element of
sympathy. The able, for such he still
is, wears a soutanelle, sort of COM
promise between the Roman Catholic
and Protestant costume, of fine serge.

collarless coat of the Anglican clergy.
The bands round the neck are of linen.
snow white. He generally carries his
hat in his hand, and the long gray hair,
still abundant and flowing, falls over his
shoulders and down each side of his face
with such striking effect that he at once
fixes attention. His head is generally
thrown back, as if contemplating the
skies, and his lips are always parted, as
if he were about to break forth into
some rhapsody which he had been re.
hearsing in his brain. His power as al
artist is weird and wonderful as ever.

A French Gun of Tea.

Prentice milford got cup of tea in
Paris: " Probably the first cup of tea
ever called for in that restaurant. They
sent over to the grocery opposite and
bought the tea, kept in glass jar in the
window. Had been exposed to sun for
seven years. Should say about one tea
spoonful was bought. Brought on in a
big earthen soup-bowl, with table
spoon and three Jumps of sugar Weak
does not expressi it. When q Frenchman
drinks tea he goes to bed, and expects to
be sick. Could have washed my hands
in that bowl of tea. Poor girl who
brought it to me blushed painfully.
Seemed as if she knew it wasn't made
English fashion. Drank it up all to
please her. Whereat her face showed
relief. Possibly now she thinks she can
make tea If SO, woe to the next man
from America who orders tea in that
restaurant ~

We shall not reese each other no
more. The bride of my brother weighs
400 pounds. Is it that could bring the
shame upon my family in espousing a
skeleton?''
He left her, bathed In tears hot.
As-soon-as, she took the determina-
ton. She resolved that she would en-
fatten herself. She ate continually for a
fifteen Of days.
Misery! Despair! She weighed but
$50.
Therefore, taking her courage in the
two hands, she bought n tube of rub

A SUNFLOWER,

Earth hides her secrets deep
Down where the small seed lies
bid from the air and skies
Where first it sank TO sleep.
10 grow, to blossom, and to die
An, who shall know her hidden alchemy?
Quick stirs the inner strife.
Strong grow the powers of life,
Forth from earth's mother breast,
From her dark homes of rest.
Forth as an essence rare
Eager TO meet the air
Growth's very being, seen
Here, in this tenderest green.
Drawn by the light above,
Upward the life must move:
Touched by the outward life
Kindles anew the strife.
Light seeks the dark's domain,
Draws thence with quickening pain
New store of substance rare,
Back through each tan Cling vein
Thrusts the new life again
Beauty unfolds in air.
so grows carth's changeIing child,
BY light and air beguiled
Out of her dreamless rest
Safe in the mother breast.
Impulses come to her,
New hopes without a name
Touch every leaf, and stir
ColOrless sap to flame:
Quick through her pulses run
Loves hidden mystic powers,
She wakes in golden flowers
Trembling to greet the sun.
What means this being new,
Sweet pain she never knew
Down in the quiet earth
Ere hope had come to birth
Golden he shines above,
Love wakes, and born Of love
All her sweet flowers unfold
In rays of..burning gold.
Life then means nanght but this
Trembling to wait his kiss,
Wake to emotion?
There where he CLOVIS she turns
All her golden flowers and burns
With her devotion.
All, but when day is done?
When he Is gone, her sun,
King OF her world and lover?
Low droops the faithful head
Where the brown earth is spread
Waiting once more to cover
Dead hopes and blossoms over.
Earthborn to earth must pass
Spirits of leaf and grass
Touched by the sun and air
Break into colOrs rare,
Blossom in love and flowers.
Theirs are the golden fruits
Earth clings around the roots.
She whispers through the hours,

Lies being; love and pain.
Back to the mother breast
Fall as the falling dew,
Once more to pass anew
Into the dreamless rest"

son that the mother-in-law plays such a

TO-DAY AND TOMORROW.

High hopes that burned like stars sublime,
Go down in the heavens of freedom;
And true hearts parish, in the time
We bitterest need them.
But never sit we down and say
There's nothing left but SORROW"
We walk the wilderness to-day,
The promised land tomorrow.
Our birds of song are silent now,
There are no flowers blooming
Yet life beats in the frozen bough.
And Freedoms Spring is coming!
And Freedoms tide comes up alway.
Though we may stand in sorrow.
And our good bark. aground to-day,
Shall float again tomorrow.
Through all the long dark night of years
The peoples cry ascendeth,
And earth is wet with blood and tears,
But our meek sufferance endeth
The few shall not forever sway.
Ghe many wall in sOrrOW;
The powers of hell are strong to-day
But Christ shall rise tomorrow.
Though hearts brood DER the past, our eyes
With smiling future glisten;
For 10! our day bursts up the Skies
Lean ont your souls and listen!
The world rolls Freedoms radient way,
And ripens with her SORROW;
Keep heart who bears the cross to-day,
Shall Wear the crown tomorrow.
o youth fame earnest, still aspire
With energies immortal
To many a heaven of desire,
Our yearing opes portal!
And though age wearies by the way.
And hearts break in the furrOw,
Wen sow tbs golden grain to-day,
The harvest comes tomorrow.
Build up heroic lives, and all
Be like sheathen sabre,
Ready to flash out at Gods call,
o OChivalry of Labor
Triumph and toll are twins; and aye
JOY sums the cloud of sorrow;
And It's the martyrlom to-day
Bring victory tomorrow.
