The City's Crowd.

The city's crowdI What a motley throng
OF people compose il. as 10 and fro,
Laughing or frowninG, they hurry along:
On business intent;
On pleasure bent
Laughter with sounds of sobbing blent;
Where did they come from-where did they gof
Where 90 they go when the day is done?-
When the Ii mt with the gloom of night is
blended,
And the twinkiing stars
Through the lattice bars,
Each in his place, show one by one
Their crystal lanterns, God-attended.
What are their hopes, and what are their
fears?
How many shall quaf from the cup of sue
cess?
How many remember the burued-out years
Of the past by its bitter wretehedness?-
Mem 'ries of hopes denied and tears
Shed at the bier of lovelness!
Backward and forward the city's crowd
sweep ever and ever, motley thrOng:
Pleasure IN f1nery: woe in "a shrouu
OF black, meet and mingle and hurry along.
Hither and thither;
Whence from? and whittier?
How many shall live and how many shall
wither
Through the night, in the night,
When the day shall be ended,
And its pailid. cold light
Into darkness be blended?

FINDINGGOLD.

In midsummer, 1869, two poor men
were at work in a gully, in Australia,
when, on digging round the roots of
tree, the pick of one of them came
upon something very hard The man
exclaimed he wished it had been a mug
get, even if it had broken his pick. 1t
proved to be nugget, and one destined
to be famous. A WAGNER was one day
driving his team along the road, when
his wheel, in turning up the soil, expos
ed to view lump of shining matter.
The WAGNER stopped to pick it up. and
by doing SO became the owner of a mug
get, which proved to be worth 81 900.
In the early days of sluicing, Scotch
man was working an extensive claim,
aud employing number of men under
him. His last shilling was spent before
any gold was found. He told his men
he had no more funds, and could go on
no longer, They had great respect for
him, aud subscribed among themselves
enough to carry on the works for few
weeks. Gold was soon afterward found
in abundance. The Scot retired with
$40, 900 and made over the mine, while
still in full yield, to the men who had SO
generously helped him.
On one occasion two men who had just
arrived from England, sat down to rest
on the outskirts of a spot to which there
had been a recent rush. 1t was broiI-
ing hot day, and they were glad, after
their toilsome walk up the country, to
rest in the shade of an old gum tree. As
they sat. one of them, rubbing up the
earth with the heel of his boot, disclosed
to view something hard and yellow-look-
ing. Pulling it from the ground, they
found it was a huge cake of veritable
gold. Without having to use pick or
spade they had relied a. fortune, and
speedily turned their backs on the dig
gers, they took the first ship home.

only its mirth and its beauty, finding
in it no memory of his cousins grave,
no regret for his own desertion.
Fair blooms the Alpine flowers with
its root in the snow," he thought bit
terly, as he watched her. '.And fair
as her face is, she has a heart of ice.
Would / had never met her, knowing
all l know now! l will not bid her
farewell. She will understand why /
90 silently out of her life. Alas! my
transient dream of love"
Il cannot bear it cannot bear itt'
murmured the girl to herself Il
must have moment alone or | shall
sob aloud.
SO she slipped away from the dane
ers and stole out to deserted part of
the grounds, tears rising at last to her
lashes and falling like dew on her
cheeks.
A mans low step reused her at last.
She turned and found Guy at her side.
Both faces were pale in the soft
light, and hers was wet with tears.
When he saw them some of the hard
ness died out of his eyes.
''You know that am to go away at
daybreak," he said slowly. "You
know my reason? l wished you to
hear all | said this afternoon. think
YOU did"
Il did" Her voice was clear, even
with ring in it which he had never
heard before in those silver tones.
81 heard all, for | was sketching, and
did not know until the story was half
told that l should hear anything not
intended for me"
But it aOGs intended for you. l
wished you to quite comprehend--to
understand that the woman who had
amused herself with my dead cousins
heart, could never be more than hate
full memory to me. | thought it best
for you and me to part in silence since,
a grave divided u.s."
''Stay!' she cried imperiously. 'You
have the right to go where you will,
silently as you wish, but you have no
right to accuse my youth of crime! 1t
was not l who won your cousins love
six years ago! 1t was not l who
lured him on, and laughed at him,
and drove him to suicide! Six years
ago was child at school"
But Mrs. Alden"
"Yes. Mrs. Alden spoke of Miss
Gascoigne You did not question her,
or you would have discovered that she
spoke so of my Cousin Lena, not of
me-.
He breathed hard, standing quite
still and stunned in the moonlight.
Was it true? Might he love and
seek love fearlessly after all?
= She read his remorse, and her color
stole back softly.
He put out his hands to her in 81
lent pleading, and she laid hers in
them without moments hesitation.
You will forgive me?" he faltered,
forgive me all | have said and
thought? | should have known you
were neither false or cruel-you, my
beautiful, star-eyed love-"
You should have come to me at
first" she answered gently. Then,
with a smile, as he bent his head .Am

Not yet!' he pleaded. "Not until

To-day, forgive it all. my darling!

None of those who thronged out to
the night-air caught her tender mur-
mur:
"Stay, Guy!'
And SO Fate for once decided kind
ly, with a smile, for Love.

Two brothers, not living more than
fifty miles from Harrodsburg, look SO
much alike that when one of them
joined the Baptist church and was
about to be immersed, he found that he
had no clothes suitable for the occasion
as he expressed it, and paid his brother
10 cents to be baptized in his place,
which was done. This story seems in
