ATTHE TWILIGHT.
NJ. d. BRINE.


When the sunset CLEANS in the western sky.
And 0nshes the restless sea,
To the sweet Lenore its messengers come
And comfort her tenderly, szz| .s
Oh, the tide comes in, and the tide goes out,
And it singeth its own song low;
But whether be glad the song, or sad,
Her thoughts must seaward 60. :
The sun comes up and the sun goes down,
And the days are Fastening by,
While she thinks OF ship that sailed away
Meath the glow of q crimson sky
When the world was sweet with the breath
of june.
Was 1t only a year ago! .% :.
Dear heart, take couraes, when Love re
turns -
The days they will not be slow. -
Twill not be long she must sit alone,
While the twilight shadows lie
Like q soft gray veil on3he changing sea,
And d0at In the darkening sky;
For her ship will come In with the tide
some night, il. e.,
Like white-winged bird Of peace,
And the day OF her long and lonely watch
In the twilight hour shall cease.

A Team of NJ uttOnS.

The well-known French journal Gal
ignani's Messenger gives the following:
"Among the cquipages of the Fete des
Fleurs one not the least remarked was
a low invalid's carriage drawn by two
enormous sheep. The occupant and
owner of this vehicle is N. de Keroy, a
nephew and former secretary of Lamar
tine, and who IN his career has distin-
guished himself as soldier, traveller,
journalist, and author. During the
seige of Paris he went up in balloon
to carry dispatches, but was almost
frozen to death, and only escaped with
the loss of both legs. He now resides
in Passey, and was neighbor Of Victor
Hugo, who frequently stopped to caress
the two sheep, and one New Years
Day addressed to him some compliment
tary lines on his team of muttons.' :"

A Heap Of Clam Shells.

Near Astoria, Oregon, according to
the San Francisco Alta, there is de-
post of clam shells which covers an
area of over four acres, and is piled in
places to a depth of ten feet. The
amount of shells is incalculable. Over
1000 loads have been hauled away to
make roads, but that amount is hardly
mense heap. From time to time relics
of the old clam-eating tribes that
made that place their headquarters are
found. A party recently found . clam

Society Versus Comfort.

society versus COmlOrGs
Some peculiar phrases of human
taste have been brought out in the evi-
dencc given before the Royal Commits
sion in England which is making an
investigation into the condition of the
crowded poor in London. The Rev.
Nathaniel Davies, vicar of St. Mary's
Charterhouse Uondon), while in Buck
inghamshire, met with man whom he
had formerly known as resident of
one of these crowded districts. He was
''in nice country place, with q COM
Portable cottage and garden, quite q
PARADISE in the wears view, ito his
former habitation.' But the man
did not share that opinion.
"He said he did not like it at all; it
was very dull, and he wished he was
back to Red Lion Market" Society,
with those who have no resources in
themselves, seems to be regarded by
them as preferable to what others
would describe as comfort. The Rev.
G. Smith. Vicar of St. Paul's, Finsbury
(London), said: II have known one
case where there were father, mother,
two grown up sons, and three grown
up daughters, the youngest of the
daughters being fifteen years of age, all
living in one room, their joint earnings,
from inquiry that made, amounting to
about E7 a week.. The Inconvenience
to which they were put in the matter of
lodgings was willingly borne, as it in
creased the amount to be spent, not in
drinking bouts, but in excursions for
recreation on the Saturday and Sun

gone to bed. By this time she was
terribly hungry. She didn't care a
straw for the s.threshing'' Win said he
would give her, didn't even care II she
was drowned, and began to new, soft
" at first, and then louder and louder
until Wins papa bounded out into the
kitchen to see what was the matter, and
ran against the table, and then against
the stove and hurt his knee so badly it
made him knock chair over.
Topsy heard Wins mamma call
from the bedroom:
.sWhat upon earth is the matter?''
And papa answered, II wish this
stove was In Jericho!"
Mamma laughed. and then papa
said. ''Now where is that wretched little
cat?'' -, .-z.z
Topsy was afraid somewhat again,
so she said very softly, s'meow!''
s'There she is!'F cried papa. =.
.Where?' called mamma.
''How shouldI know?" scolded pa
pa-for his shins still ached from the
bump on the hearth.
.'Meow, Meow!'' said Topsy.
''She's in the pantry again!' ex-
claimed papa, and then mamma cane
and lit lamp and then went to lock
for her. p <.s@& "
.'Meow!'' /.
They looked under the shelves and
behind the flour barrel, and into the
cupboard, but no kitten was to be seen.

"She's under the floor!'' cried papa,
in dismay.
''She' in the drawer!" cried mamma,
suddenly remembering that she shut
the drawer when she went into the
pantry and found the spoiled goodies.
Papa opened the drawer, and out
jumped Topsy right into his face,
which startled him so that he jumped
back against mamma, and made iher
knock off the lamp chimney.
Topsy had dashed wildly under the
cupboard, but when she heard tho
chimney smash she rushed out and un-
der the stove, with her tail three or
four times as big as usual.
Mamma stepped very carefully with
her bare feet over the broken glass and
lit another lamp. Papa opened the
outside door. Mamma took down the
broom and punched at the place where
Topsy had disappeared, while papa
kicked the door of the tin oven on the
other side of the stove.
Topsy thought the house must be
coming down and so she scampered
out at the door so fast that she looked
like black streak.
''Sho there!' cried mamma and pa
pa shouted 'SC-SCAT!'
And then the clock struck twelve
and Thanksgiving was over.-Harriet

Riel the hero or leader of two rebellions
against the English government in Mani
toba, one in 1869 and one in 1885 is dead,
having been hanged at Regina, Northwest
Territory, on the morning Of the 18th. It
was not until within day or two Of the
execution either Riel or the local authori-
ties expected the execution to take place.
The prisoner claimed that some interposi-
ton from above would finally save him.
All day Sunday Riel was very uneasy,
feeling that his fate was sealed. Father
Andre remained with him most of the day,
seeking to prepare Riels mind for the great
change which he was convinced was close
at hand. 1t was not until the special train
arrived with the warrant that it was actu-
ally known the execution would take place
this morning, and Sheriff Chaplain, in the
presence of several newspaper correspond
ents, conveyed the intelligence to the
doomed man in his cell, and after
the first shock naturally given
by the receipt Of the actual news
that he was to hang in the morning, Riel
soon appeared calm and was much more
cheerful than he had been for some time.
It seemed a relief to his mind to know that
suspense wae away, to know that in few
hours he would be out of his troubles, and
he was calm and satisfied accordingly.
Father Andre remained with him all night
busy with devotional exercises and prepar-
ations to meet death. About II O'Clock he
pareook Of supper, consisting Of bread and
milk and three raw eggs. He never slept
= wink during the night, but remained
praying very earnestly with Father Andre.
He was not the slightest excited, but main
tanned . calm, devotional demeanor.
At5a. m. Pere Andre, assisted by Father
NcWilhams, celebrated mass, and at J
O'Clock administered the last sacrament of
the church to Riel. Riel prayed in his cell
until Ava minutes before Deputy Sheriff
Gibson notified him that his time had come.
Supported by the priests, Riel WALKED with
