OLD ECHOES.

You wonder that my tears should flow
In listening to that simple strain;
That those unskllful sounds should fill
My soul with JOY and pain
How can you tell what thoughts it stirs
Within my heart again?
You wonder why that common phrase.
So all unmeaning to your ear;
Should stay me in my mcrriest mood.
And thrill my soul to hear
How cam YOU tell what ancient charm
Has made me hold it dear?
You smile to Gee me turn and speak
With one whose converse you despisc.
You do not see the dreams Of old
That with his voice arise
How can you tell what links have made
Linn sacred in my eyes?
Oh, these are voices of the past,
Links Of q broken chain,
Wings that can bear me back to times
Which cannot come again;
Yet God forbid that | should lose
The echoes that remain.

Kiipatrick's Horse.
lChris.iaa Register.l

Old Spot, Gen. Kilpatrick's fayorite war
horse, bore his master gailantly on long and
peri,ous rides and in the thick of many des-
perate fight, himself more than once feeling the
prick of steel and the sting of lead. Subsequent
to the war Gen. Fitzpatrick was sent to South
America. He left the old horse at the farm,
with orders that he should be kindly cared for
Returning after an absence of several years,
the General reached his home near night, and
was for some time occupied in exchanging
greetings with his family and friends. He did
not, however, long neglect to inquire after the
old horse. Learning that Spot was at pasture
in distant field the General sent for him, and
a little later was told that his favorite was
securely tied to post at the entrance of the
grounds, some distance away. The General
hastened out onto the piazza, from whence, peer
ing through the shadows, he deserted the form
of the old veteran, who stood demurely gnaw-
ing at the post. Just one word, "Spot!" rang
out over the lawn. Like an echo came back
the answering neigh. With snort and bound,
the old charger snapped the halter as if it had
been thread, cleared the fence at a leap, and,
with arched neck and ears proudly erect,
spurned the intervening turf like race horse,
until he stood by the piazza, where with joy
full whinny he laid his head upon his masters
breast. Added the General: "We hugged and
caressed each other like lovers, and / am not
ashamed to say that no welcome / received that
day warmed my heart more than that of old
Spot"

old, with eyes as bright as dollars, with six
fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot.
