No subject, aside from politics, has
so interested and absorbed the pub
lie mind during the past year as the
rescue of the Greedy party and the
effects of the expedition on the fund
Of information in regard to the
frozen north" Harper & Bros, OF
New York, have just published a
beautiful and interesting volume,
written 10y Thomas w. Kuox, for
young people, entitled, "The Voy-
age of the Vivian to the North Pole
and Beyond" 1t is the story of an
exploring rarty to the North Pole.
The story is, of course, pure inven-
ton, but I'll the facts contained in
the first eleven chapters are histori-
cal and full If Interest and in
fOl nation. The rest of the book
describes the exploration of still un-
known lands and the reaching of
the pole. according to u theory of the
author, which may yet be proved
correct.
The whole is well and enter
tainingly written, and beautifully
and profusely illustrated, while the
heavy paper and elegant binding
make a took of which both author
and publisher may well be proud.
No more accepta bic gift could be
made to young people fond Of travel
and history, than this fine book.
Another book from the same firm
is entitled Miss Tommy" by that
popular author, Miss Mulock. Every
body who mas read "John Halifax,
Gentleman" will be ready to read
later works from the same
pen although they may not be equal
ly pleased. Miss Tommy is a beau
tiTui old maid. vino performs a noble
mission in life, and who proves that
d lone and independent woman can
oe both wOnlanly aud seif-rel;ant.
Those who doubt the existence OF
such individuals, may read this
quaint little story, aud then recall
similar characters among their own
.cquaintances. "Mlss Tommy" b.
though declared for some years from
love affairs of her own can feel an ill.,
tereet in those of others, aGG materi-
ally assists in making the happiness

'Aint got time toplay no more,
Unjust run straight home to mamma;
See there's Grape tied on the door.
lam feeling faint and giddy,
Yet l know that it is wrong,
Mamma has so often told me
When she's weak l must be strong.
Rosey, help me pack my satchcl,
1t contains my store of books;
See my hands how awful shakey,
And it's heavier than 1t looks
Oh! l feel 70 strange. dear Roscy,
Aud my heart is full of dread,
Listen, while I whisper softly,
I'm afraid the baby's dead.
Wait outside a moment, Rosey,
Till I gain my falling breath,
For l must not shake and tremble
Even at the thought Of death.
Everything is strangely silent,
Hark! / hear my mother moan,
Papa never came to breakfast.
And l think she's all alone.
Just look in and see the picture,
Oh! / don't know what to think, :
But the troubles killing mamma;
Rosey does your papa drink?
Mammals kneeling by the coffin,
See the tears roll down her cheek.
Let me lean Oh you. dear Rosey,
ForI feel 50 faint and weak.
Help me think of something funny.
Slap my face for looking sad,
Pull my hair or pinch me. Rcsey, .
Do something to make me mad:
How l loved the little darling,
Oh. ii he could only wake:
Can !, can l, hide my sorrow!
Yes, I must for mammals sake.
Softly glides the little hero
In the chambers filled with gloom, .
See how bravely she takes her station,
Only sunbeam in the room.
Mamma, hush, he's only sleeping,
Dry your tears, quit sobbing now,
While 1 range the sunny ringlets
On his pure and slnless brow.
See the tiny little fingers a..
Clasping lilies white and fair;
He has only gone before US,
And is waiting for us there.
We must give the little jewel.
Rosebud severed from its STEM
Pure gem by angels gathered
For the Savior's diadem.
Little ieet 80 soft ard tender,
They have missed the snares and strife,
They will lever have 10 travel
Thr> ugh the tangled threads of life.
Little eyelids closed forever
On the wicked world below,
If papa drinks to make us trouble.
Cherub, he will never know.
Holy Father, blessed savior
Too thy will we meekly bow;
Guess you'll have to take me mamma,
For my courage fails me now.
Fold me closely to your bosom
Though YOU'RE of the babe bereft,
Kiss me, mamma, whisper softly
That you're glad 1 still am left.

PETER the CREAT.

When Peter the Great was living in
England. he said and did many strange
things. When in Westminster Hall, he
inquired of distinguished barraster
who we're the gentlemen in wigs and
gowns, and being told they were law
yers, said:
Lawyers! Why, have but two in
my whole dominion. and when | return
mean to hang one"
The house which he occupied while
in Eneland-Saye's court, at Deptford,
the property of Evelyn, the author. of
"Sylva'-was left in dirty, ruinous
condition after the imperial visit.
In the garden at Saye's court was a
thick, priokly holly hedge, 400 feet long
This fine holly hedge was a source Of
great delight to Peter and his retinue in
their drunken revelries.
They would get wheelbarrows, and.
putting a person in each, for wagers,
wOuld charge the hedge. Peter himself
was sometimes in the barrow; but the
Rrandest attack of all was made by his
Czarship, when he drove the luckless
Prince MenZikoff four feet into the bush
and left him sticking there.
Evelyn's servant writes to him of their
doings at Deptford:
There is house full of people and
right nasty. The Car lies in your
library. He dimes twice. at 10 O'Clock
and 6. The King is coming here today,
and the best parlOr is tOlsrably clean for
him."
