HEIMWEN.
BY EMILY HUNTINGTON MILLER.

At Naples is q garden by the sea,
Warmed with the lavish splendor of the sun
And filed, from wall to wall, with wanton
growth
OF roses, white and crimson in their bloom.
A broken fountain spills slender stream
OF limpid water from its crumbling brim;
And fair naiad, fallen from her throne,
Lies smiling, in her green nest of the grass,
At the young violets, crowding round her
knee.
There, when the days are still, and glad con-
tent
Gathers her happy children to her heart,
l sit alone, to feel the healing sun
Send its warm pulses through my veins like
wine,
Finding in birds, and bees, and fearless things,
That come and 90 along the tangled ways.
Good company, to cheer my solitude;
But when mine ear, attent to finest sounds,
Hears in the blossom-laden boughs oerhead
The plaintive jargon of the toiling bees,
And when through all the heavy air,
The faint, pervasive breath of violets near.
Steals like a dream of some remembered bliss,
Oh then the blue sea and the bluer sky.
Fade into gray, behind mist of tears,
Through which l see our ragged orchard trees,
Flushed with the tender beauty of the May,
Where robins build, and chide the oriole,
That in and out, among the drifted blooms,
Repeats his golden syllable of song.
Through the air the rapid swallows go,
Fleet upon fleet with dusky wings for oars,
Till my heart wakes with one tumultuous
throb,
And, filed with longing, cries for home and
thee.

If ANYTHING should convince the friends
promulgate religious freedom abroad, it
should be the disclosure Of the Golos of the
long and shameful Imprisonment to which
three dissenting prelates have been subject
ed in the province of Vladimir. One of
them it appears has been in prison twenty
six years, and the two others twenty-five and
seventeen years respectively, their sole crime
being that they hold religious views professed
by five millions of the CZar's subjects, and
which are simply an older, stricter, and
more moral form of the orthodox faith.
When the Russian government violently re-
formed the national church in the seven
teenth century, number of people refused
to accept the innovations introduced and
became known from that time as the Old Be
levers. Gear after car, synod after syn
cd, attempted to force them to accept the re-
vised ritual and, when persecution failed,
tried the effect of bribery and cajolry, giving
some of them churches, comforting the titles
OF Bishops and Archbishops upon their lead
ing priests, and afterwards striving to get
these latter to draw over their followers to
the orthodox fold. But, all along, these old
believers, the Puritans of Russia, have been
firm in their refusal to accept these innova-
tons, and on every side of the empire-in
the distant outlying and dangerous provinc-
es-may be found colonies of them, formed
of exiles transported from their native towns
and hamlets.

A FASHIONABLE pEN1rENr.
MRS. NJ. P. HANDY IN HARPER's BAzAR.

Don't You think that my new suit is stylish?
You see it's the true Lenten gray,
Louis is black, but think this is better;
More appropriate, too, every way.
Then just look at the little nuns bonnet,
With almost no trimming, you see;
And the chatelaine with prayer-book hung on
it,
think it's as cute as can be.
You know it's the latest French fashion
To dress very plainly in Lent,
And lay aside jewels and laces,
To show your religious intent;
So made up my mind that this season,
For change, I'd be very deyout.
Bnt that church twice day is fatiguing
shall find ere Lent's over, no doubt.
1t isn't the afternoon service,
But getting up early, mind.
Still, the girls are all going to do it,
And don't want to be left behind.
Besides, the new curate is charming;
His reading is perfectly sweet.
Fanny Harris is silly about him
That girl has no end of conceit
Why, she really thinks he admires her;
So she goes in for church work, you know
That's why she's so awfully pious-
Goodbye, ifyou really must go.

THE Rev. John P. Newman, D. D., the
self-assumed pastor of the NewYork Madison
Avenue church, seems to have ceased to be,
if he ever was, gospel preacher. The New
York Star says, DR.. Newman last Sabbath,
harrangued from the pulpit, to slender con-
gregation, on the ''Hereafter.'' The Star
says: ''The lecture-sermon was of the specu-
lative rather than of the Biblical school of
thought. Indeed, theology appeared to have
very little to do with it, while the Scriptural
view of the subject was treated with much
vagueness. Several WRITER'S said Dr. New
man, have termed the Scriptural illusions
to the thereafter as the halfway house,
and it must be confessed that the light they
throw upon it is very meagre.' Then he
passed on to the delivery of several i'm
promptu aphorisms, as for instance The
Bible is book of specimen facts He COM
pared the boundlessness of the future to the
changeful condition of the molecule. Having
caught well on to his happy comparison,
Pastor Newman glided once more into ap-
horism, and somewhat startled his hearers
with the remarkable statement that no man
was ever conscious of duplicated conscious
ness Re-inspired, as it were, by the mole
cule idea, he again took up the theme it sug-
gested, followed up its various transforms
tions, until he landed the Imagination of his
hearers into "the Indian summer of glori-
Gus immortality At other times this secu-
lar theologian gives sketches of travel, and
presents various topics, thought to be of in
terest to undevout minds. An irreverant
nearer says if Pastor Newman's pulpit
harangues had the smallpox the natural way
gospel theology would be in no danger of
taking it,"

THE CALCUTTA International Exposition,
which opened in December last, has been a
great success. There are 5000 exhibitors,
by far the greatest number Q311) being
from the Australian Colonies; next comes
Great Britain, and last and least, with only
a dozen or so exhibits, comes the United
States. The most interesting displays, says
a correspondent, are those connected with
the Indian courts and the jewelry-room,
where the elaborate carvings and handwork
of native artisans afford much that is in
structive and fill one with admiration for
their intutive skill and laborlous persever-
ance. There are Agra carpets and Hydera-
bad rugs, cashmere shawls, inlaid work and
sandawood carvings, Punjab pottery, and
Delhi sandstone slabs chiselled into lace de-
sign perforations. There are models of ma
tive villages, with people at their daily occu-
pations also palanquins and howdahs (ele-
plant saddles) with elaborate canopies, of
costly workmanship. Swords, spears and
shields stnded with gems are arranged about
in fancy designs. Here gistens a crown
and there rajah's cap overlaid with dia-
monds. One in particular has three large
diamonds in front of the size of pigeon IS
eggs, each of which represents good-sized
fortune, and one of which can be traced
back to the famous old Peacock throne at
Delhi. There are idols in alabaster and
marble There are no clocks, none of the
so-called ''Yanken notions" or any of the
ingenious contrivances for which America is
so justly celebrated. The attendance aver

Model church dinners like an inconven-
lent baby Dickens tells us of, are saved by
being ''little" while in like manner we find
that parties of six may more appropriately
visit theater than companies of a dozen. A
fine distinction too is drawn between seeing
professionals perform and performing one
self and the young lady Who does not pat
ronize the theatre, gets up theatre of her
own that other people may 'patronize her
for charity. AS an antidote to dust and
ashes, we hear also of ''banjo classes" orna-
mental candy making and and the getting
up of fancy boxes to hold it, consoles for an
absence of roast beef; riding and walking
parties replace the German; Gipsey camp baz-
aars serve as helps to weary pilgrims while
tableaux give a needed assistance to the
needy.
