He had gone by some time before. The
Joy of return had given wings to his feet, as

the sound of approaching footsteps; it was
doubtless George Andre, whom he had pre-

going to meet him when the report of gun
rang out and ball struck him full in the
breast.
The assassin emerged from a neighboring
thicket, but on approaching his victim to
finish and rob him he found himself in the
presence of a new actor, and vented his dis
appointment in horrible oath; he had

The husband and wife carried him to their

Andre had announced his return, and how
he had decided to prevent. at any price, the
consequences of his negligence, even ii he

Der matching all the tInts of fyrian dyes,
AS fair the days as when with hope hailed
The light of morning skies.
There is no change since first my heart was

BY sight of field. or stream, or flower, or vine;
AS sweetly carols now the singing bird
The change Is only mine. -
What seems to blend into blighting rust.
Where once mine eyes saw col0rs only bright,
Is but the binding of life's highway dust
That soon will close them quite,
And, knowing this, with strengthened hand I

Back to their tOmbs the ghosts that upward

R0bed with regret, and, sweeping, oleanly,

A Smile in the House of Lords.

London Society.
The following curious scene is described by
the present Lord Albemarle. who was wit
ness to it. A debate on the clergy reserves
in the Canada bill in April, 1888, was the
occasion. The late Lord Derby made re-
marks, from which Bishop Wherefore ex-
pressed his DISSENT by shaking his head and
smiling. The noble Earl took exception at
the gesture. The Bishop admitted the smile,
but denied all intention of thereby imput-
ing anything offensive.
Lord Derby accept the explanation
offered by the right reverend prelate; but
when he SAYS !hat it is impossible for him
to say anything offensive because he has 4
smiling face, he will forgive me If quote

words to him:

The Tallest of Trees.

All the Year Round.
Though there is every probability that
California's big tree will maintain its SUI
premacy as the most massive column in the
worlds forests. it must perforce yield the
palm of altitude to the Australian euoalyp-
tus. In the valley of the Watts river, in
Victoria, many fallen trees have been meas
ured as they lie on the ground, and found to
exceed $50 feet in length. One mighty giant
had fallen so as to form a bridge across a
deep ravine. 1t had been broken in falling,
but the portion which remained intact meas
ured 435 feet in length, and as its girth at the
point of fracture is nine feet, Its diSeoverer
estimates that the perfect tree measured fully
800 feet Its circumference, five feet above the
roots, is fifty-four feet. Another gum-tree
on Mount Wellington was found to be 102
feet in girth at three feet from the ground. Its
height could not be estimated, owing to the
density of the forest But its next neigh
Dor which was ninety feet in circumference,
was found to be 300 feet in height In the
Dandenong district of Victoria an almond
leaf gum-tree Eucalyptus amygdalina) has
been carefully measured, and is found to be
$50 feet in height 1t rises $50 feet before
throwing out branch its circumference is
sixty feet. Tasmania also produces speci-
mems OF eucaly ptus which are $50 feet in
height, and which rise 200 feet ere forming
branch. One near Hobart Town is ninety
six feet in girth. and till ten years ago, tow
cred to the height of 300 feet but is now
ruin. The question of supremacy is, how
ever, confined to altitude for the untidv-
looking eucalyptus with its ragged and tat
tered gray bark hanging about it in such
slovenly fashion, can never contest the palm
OF might or majesty with the stately cedars,
whose magnificent golden-red shafts tower
on high like the futed marble columns of
some vast cathedral.

In the gathering shadows she looks upinto

eyes stirs her heart with strange tender

father; it was no feeling that had ever
