After Nineteen Years.

Nineteen years ago a female infant was
left with an old Irishwoman in Boston
by its young parents, who boarded with
her, supposedly under an assumed name.
The only clew to them was a handker-
chief bearing initials, which was with
the child's effects. The little one grew
up in ignorance of its father or mother,
cared for by the old woman and her fam
lily. After lapse of years, a peculiar
growth appeared on the lid of one of the
child's eyes.
She was taken to an occalist, who re-
marked upon the singuiarity of the case,
and said he had operated only upon one
other similar case in the course of his
practice, and that was upon the eye of a
wealthy lady in city near Boston. Here
was the long.hidden clew to the child's
identity. The person who took the lit
tie girl to the occulist reported what the
doctor had said An attorney was called
in, and it was. in the process of a
long investigation, developed that the
name upon the handkerchief was the
name of the manufacturers wife and the
girls mother
The girl was, several months ago, con-
fronted with her father and mother. A
settlement by the payment of several
thousand dollars for back board and an
annuity of ST, 500 for the daughter, now
a young lady, was effected, it is said.
! When the child was abandoned the hus-
band of the lady was poor bookkeepcr.
It was feared it is said. that the birth of
the baby would anger relative OF the
mother who was possessed of means, and
| so the child was riven up. To-day the
bookkeeper is a wealthy manufactures.

Distant about an hours ride by raj
from Avignon is the Pont du Gard 60.
Bridge of the Gard, , great bridge, on
aqueduct, built here by the Romans at {
q time when this part of France wal
occupied by the soldiers and colonies o.
that people; and next to the Colosseum
at Rome, it is considered the grandesI
and most perfect piece of Roman archi-
lecture now standing in the world.
1t Is an immense stone bridge, stretch
ing across the whole valley. 1t consists
OF three rows of arches, one above the
other. In the lower row there are six very
large arches; above this is longer row
Of eleven smaller arches; and over this,
thirty-fiye arches still smaller. On the
top of the upper row and forming the
summit of the bridge, is covered aque-
duct, or waterway. At a little distance
this vast bridge seems almost as entire
and perfect as when first built, and we
can hardly realize the fact that it has
stood there for nineteen centuries. 1t
was erected solely for the purpose of
carrying water across the valley, and was
part Of an aqueduct, twenty five miles
long, constructed by the Romans to con-
duct the water of the springs of Airan to
their town of Nemausus, now the French
town of Mines.
Great stones project at regular inter
walls from its sides, to the top of the
second row of arches. These served as
supports to the derricks and other ma
chimes b. which the massive stones were
raised as the building progressed. We
can also sec the square indentations In
