THE BRILLIANT STRANGER.

= This is the heading in an exchange
last week of melancholy story of a
belle in western town, who married a
polished adventurer, a stranger, in pref
erence to her many lovers among the
youth Of her town. Soon after the
marriage She learned hi, true character,
that he was wrctched, drunkard ad-
venturer, with wife and children liv-
ing miserably in st. Louis.
The poor girl, with wounded pride
and broken heart, had not the courage
to return humblcd to her home, and in
what should have been the morning Of
her honeymoon, She buried herself and
her sorrow in the rivers depths.
And this is story that comes to US
again and again. What Il fascination
there seems to be fer society III the
prcsuming, polished stranger. Ho"
soon are the old friend Of childhood
forgotten and outshone by the bruzen
brilliant stranger.
The pleasantly impudcmt address o
the adventurer seems to fill a craving
in society, which forget, to ask for the
passport of Il character.

A MUSING.

TWill ii. Herman in the Comet
IL was on a miracle evening,
OH friend in a sweet slain time,
A pure. vet passionate evening,
With TapturOus thoughts in rhyme,
That time i'm the woods of Wayland
Meath the pale moons silver rim,
We wandered IN sweet communion
Through the magical shadows din.
Oh, singing and shining evening
OF the luminous long ago
OH beautiful woods OF Wayland
Where the red wild roses blow.
Obi birds that carroled in chorus,
oh, voice with a tender thrill,
Oh! passionate flash of loving eyes
We are part Of my spirit stlli'
No ewes like thine eyes can charm me-
NJ voice like thy voice can cheer
No clasp like thy clasp can thrill me,
No dear one is half so dear,
Ayel dearer thou art, far dearer
Than laurels or fame or gold
And nearer thou art, far nearer
Than ever on earth was told.
| may lose my faith forever
In the heavens of which we hear,
may lose my faith in the seraphs
That sing by the jasper sea-
But tenderest friend man ever had,
I'll never lose faith in thee.
| know not beloved, l know not,
Ii meet again, we ever shall,
or dark and wild and uncertain
Are the devious paths of men,
And far, so far are we severed
BY mountain and void and waves,
And this is land of parting
And funeral bells and graves.
But whether we meet or whether
We meet in this world no more,
I'll love thee still as I've loved thee
In the passionate years OF yOre.
The red blood will dance and tingle
With pleasure throughout my frame,
And my heart will break into blossom
Whenever hear thy hame.
Oh, God! up there il the highest,
Look down on me tonight,
With my voice of batfled pleading
And mine eyes devoid of light.
You know the pain and hunger
That's aching in my heart,
You see the wretched phantoms,
Which out from memory start.
Then Father list and hearken
TO this last prayer of mine,
And the darkness all will vanish,
In the noontide's blessed shine,
Oh! let me reach back to that summer,
Unwakened by sad alarms
And clasp for all the future.

JUMPING AT CONCLUSIONS.

Mr. Mordle went away the next week. He
carried lis sorrow with him, manfully re-
solved to do all Lo could to leave it on the
summit Of Mont Blanc or tho Matteihorn, to
sink it in the Lake OF Maggiore or Como, or
to cast 1t upon the flowing Rhine. He told
himself with such checrtulness as he could
muster that he was deeply wounded but not
killed. Before lie tied the label on his port
mantcau he discharged what his keen sense
of honor told him was n duty. He called on
the Talbcrts and informed them how he had
Jared with Beatrice.
They We're very busy bottling off quarter
casi of sherry. They found that buying their
vino i'll wood saved them Heaven knows how
much. Now, bottling wine is nice, dign-
tied, yet, withal, cheerful operation, in the
performance q which II duke need not be
ashamed to be seen. If had the wine to bot
tie | would work at it ten hours a day. SO
when the brothers heard that Mr. Mordle
wished particularly to SEQ them, he was asked
to step down into the cellar.
Into the cellar he went. Not bad place
on such a sutry day. He found Horace
less sp:oad on either side of the cask, in
something Of the attitude of reversed
Bacchus. He was filling the bottles with the
g ldcn fluid, whilst Herbert stood near him.
a.l after dipping the corEs into a little basin
full Of WINE, manipulated them with a cork
,4uea1er and eventually drove them into
their resting place by aid of II small spade
shaped mallet. As each bottle was filled,
corkcd, and put aside, Herbert made u chall;
mark on q board and every fourth mark he
crossed with another, 50 that the tally could
be easily counted. The whole performance
was beautifully methodical and business like,
rejecting great credit on the actors.
With their native politeness, the moment
Mr.. Mordle came in sight they ceased their
occupation. Horace turned the tap and rose
from the half filled bottle; Herbert left the
cork half driven in. They greeted their visi-
tor and apologzed for bringing him down to
the lower regions. Although they wore large
coarse white aprons, fashioned somewhat like
a girls piaafore, they looked two well-bred
gentlemen.
Il say said the curate nervously, "you
know I'm OF the day after tomorrow
