LOvELIEsT SPOT ON EARTH

Washington has one Of those cenne.
teries pronounced by people with that
taste for gruesome things to be "the
loveliest spot on earth," and to which
strangers are carried and expected to
rhapsodize over the forest OF monu.
ments, with all their painful and
unpleasant recollections. But in Oak
Hill there is at least the interest attach
ing to the resting-place of the distin.
guished dead, and as such is worth
visiting. This cemetery is in George
town, which is technically part Of
Washington, and is four or five miles as
the crow flies from the Congressional
Cemetery.
Here lies the body of Chief Justice
Chase. No man, so honored in life was
ever more neglected in death. When
he died he owned not foot of ground
suitable for his burial place, nor did his
daughter, Mrs. Kate Chase Sprague,
buy it for him. Ex-Gov. Henry d.
Cooke, the Washington banker, owned
q lot in Oak Eli, and offered a resting
place to the dust of the great jurist.
There was he buried, and for years his
grave remained unmarked and except,
for the attention bestowed on it by Ex-
Gov. Cookies orders, quite neglected.
Some of the friends of the Chief Justice
in Ohio hearing that not even the plain
est stone commemorated his grave, COM
bined and bought block of plain
granite, with the name aud age of the
Chief Justice on it. 1t got lost on the
way to Washington and remained for
several years boxed up in freight ware
house. At last curiosity moved some
one to open the box, and it was dis
covered to hold this memorial stone.
1t was then forwarded, and certain per-
sons, rather than apply to Mrs Sprague
for money paid out of their own pockets
the small cost of putting the stone in
position.
Here also lies buried the body of John
Howard Payne, the author of Home,
Sweet Home. More than fifty years
ago he had been the friend of Mr.. w. w.
Corcoran, the George Peabody of Wash.
ington. Payne, it will be remembered,
died and was buried in Tunis. He had
often expressed a wish that his bones
might rest in his native land. Three
years ago Mr.. Corcoran carried out
q long-cherished design of bringing
Payne's body back to this country and
erecting monument over it. 1t was
placed in Oak Hill cemetery near the
main entrance, and on the noble monu-
ment inscribed; John Howard Payne,
author of Home, Sweet Home"
A" MIR. Corcoran himself has plot here,
where lie the remains of his only child,
who died in her early womanhood A
circular temple in the severest style of
Crock art, is the family monument of
the Corcorans, and under the floor lie
the collins. Gen. Reno's tomb, is con-
spicuous and also that of Edwin NJ.
Stanton, the Secretary of War. Whether
| Mr. Stanton committed suicide or not
has never been conclusiyely proved.
His wife did not long survive him, and
they lie in the same grave, covered by a
plain block of colored marble, with a
simple inscription. Lorenzo Dow, the
Sam Jones OF by-gone day, also sleeps
in Oak Hill. The strength of the ruling
passion in death was exemplihed 10y his
directions to have an eccentric epitapl
on his tombstone, but instead is put {

HANDS REVEAL HABITS.

In capital article on hands, the
writer says that the sleight-of.han' pro-
fessor is n man of long tinger. A con-
Juror with slow and chubby hand

taken Fo's father from home, but tele-
gram received unexpectedly caused him
to defer his journey.
There was no possibility of letting the
countess know of this change of plans,
but Florence strengthened herself with
rejecting that SO long before breakfast
her father would not be down stairs.
Very softly the girl dcscended-very
gently she unfastenod the long shutters
to admit Lady LilIington, who came in,
her feet all wet with dew.
Have you the key, my darling
Florence ?" whispered theagitated lady.
Here! herel" whispered back the
excited Florence; land the portrait Is
there-I have searched p
Hardly had she spoken the words
when the door unclosed, and Michael
Arlington, her father, walked in. Some
restless memory had kept him wakeful;
he had detected the noise of Florence's
opening door, imagining that some-
thing was the matter, he had gone to
his daughters room and found it empty,
then he had followed down stairs, and
had come face to face with Ethel, his
lost love.
With one faint cry the latter had
thrown herself into Forence's arms.
Father oh, father, she loves you
sol" said the young girl, disengaging
herself from Lady Ellington, and steal
ing from the room.
All the country was soon afterward
electrified by hearing that Mr.. Michael
Arlington was going to marry the still
lovely Countess of Ellington, and that
Miss Arlington and the countess were
inseparable.
1t was in the loveliest glade of Lilling-
ton Park that Cecil Lauton told his tale
of affection to the happy Florence nor
had the lovers anything now to fear
from Sir Bertram's refusal to consent to
their bridal, for it is wholly different
thing to wed the daughter of man who
has just married very wealthy widow,
holding high position in society, from
that which is involved by wedding the
child of penniless man.
Only to Cecil, and under promise Of
secrecy to Susan, was the solution of the
ghost story revealed; but it was many
day before the village folks ceased to
declare that Laurel Cottage was haunted.

ONIONS AS A SOPORIFIC.

Whether onions have soporific effect
upon all persons must be determined
by the use of them. Onions prepared
by the following method have afforded
relief to many persons suffering from
Insomnia. To each quart of onions
allow quart of cold water with half
teaspoonful of salt Let the onions
simmer for two hours. Drain them
thoroughly when cooked, and let them
become quite cold. Mix one table
spoonful of flour, adding salt and pep
per, and pour on the mixture one pint
of boiling milk, stirring constantly.
Put the onious in the sauce and set
them on the fire until they boil. The
lamented Frank Buckland found onions
beneficial after eu.Ll fatigue, followed
by sleeplessness.
