Wonderful Lilium Auratum.

One sometimes hears of the wonderful
productiveness of the golden lily-Li Jun
dratum, Lindley. Some years ego an in
stance was recorded of one stalk under
cultivation bearing no less than thirty-fve
flowers. This happened in Pitlour, in
Fifeshire, Scotland, in 1886. The record
is quite beaten by plant in the garden of
foreign resident at Karurawa, says the
Japan Weekly Nail, which is now bearing
no fewer than fifty-seven flowers on one
stalk. The stalk itself is six feet high,
and toward the upper end it fattens out
the buds hanging like keys on board.
The upper extremity is cleft. Room is
thus allowed for the remarkable luxuri-
ance of Towering Just described. In the
Far East of September Is, 1872, it is
stated: "This summer there grew in the
garden of Mr.. G.. G. Pearson, on the Bluff
111), Yokohama, two stems from one
bulb. The two stems cut off and stuck in
bowl of ferns are portrayed on the first
page of this number of our journal. Ole
was fair specimen of the ordinary flower
ing of the plant, having eighteen flowers
upon it; but the other, upon broad, fiat
stem, about an inch and a half in width,
but thin as lath, had no less than sixty
three buds, of which ifty-two were in full
flower at one time.-PaH Nall Gazette.

A REALIZED IDEAL.

When l was somewhat younger,
And all on pleasure bent,
While yet my only hunger
And thirst was sentiment;
When all the world looked sunny
In life's first blossom time.
Love fed my heart with honey
And filed my heart with rhyme.

To Phyllis with q rose

In-nOt exactly prose.
All feminine apparel
Inspired my easy muse,
Who must have filed a barrel
With songs 10 hats and shoes.
The gloves, the muffs, the dresses,
The ribbons that were worn;
Clarinda's midnight tresses,
Hipatia's face like morn
These were the thames of
The lines | used to write
Before my youthful dresms of
Sweet nothings took their fight.
And then you camel A vision
Too blissful to be true.

An Aged War Horse.

"Old Fly" was born in 1855 and wa s
reared on the farm of George A. Bar
rett, near Stewartsville, Robb Town
ship, Posey county, Ind. On the en-
listment OF the First Indiana Cavalry,
in the month of June, 1861. Mr.. Barrett
presented Fly to his son, George NJ,
under whom she was mustered into the
service Of the United States in Compa-
ny b. First Indiana Cavalry, at Eva MS
Vile, Ind, July 81, 1861. Ridden by
her owner, Fly was in the following
battles of the war OF the rebellion:
Frederickstown, Mo. Round Hill, Ark. I;
Helena, Ark. Oakland, Miss. Little
Rock, Ark, Pine Bluff, Ark; Mount
Elba, Ark; Marks Mill, Ark, and in
Vulnerable skirmishes. She was in
the army three years and two months,
having been mustered out of service
at indianapolis, Ind, in the month of
September, 1864. During her term in
the service she was ever ready for
duty and did her full share. Mr.. A.
w. Barrett, Of Stewartsvile, Ind,
writes: "Old Fly is still living at
her home, near Stewartsville, Ind. AL
though she is thirty-four years old
and has not lain down by herself for
three or four years, she is seemingly
full of life and vigor, and is ready for
duty at any time. Chicago Inter

SO close that we could almost feel the
flash of their guns. Governor Scales,
of North Carolina, said in speech not
long ago that some of Pettigrews men
were killed fifty yards inside the Federal
lines, and I've no doubt it was so. They
were on our right and we went at that

A Spanish Preacher.

Johnnie's papa was a Government
clerk. Johnnie was seven years OF age.
He frequently methis papa at the office
at four o'clock in the afternoon and
walked home with him. On Peunsyl-
vanis avenue, above the War Depart
ment, they daily passed an excellent
restaurant. Usually, about the time
they reached that point, the Spanish
Minister to the United States would be
driven up TO the restaurant for his din
ner. The equipage was q striking one
in appearance, and had been pointed
out to Johnnie as that Of the Spanish
envoy to this country. One afternoon,
as they passed Seventh street, the bril-
liant equipage drove by and Johnnie
exclaimed:
Look, papa, look! There goes the
Spanish preacher"
Johnnie is older now, and knows that
all ministers are not preachers

frolic and defiance went forward even
while the lieutenant in charge of the
post ordered me back. 1t was the habit
of the pickets at such a time to stand
up and watch the proceedings, but this
day no one stood up.
Il felt little queer as l went for
ward, because it seemed to me that the
reb who had been waving the paper
didn't move forward as rapidly as l did.
just before l reached him he dropped in
the grass. 1t was then in my mind to
go back, but feeling that the boys
would joke me about cowardice, l went
on, aGd in a few minutes passed the
rebel picket line and was a prisoner.
Explanation counted for nothing, and !
was prisoner until after the battle Of
Missionary Ridge. Ny name went on
the books as a deserter, and l never
could make my captain believe that l
acted honestly i'm the matter"
Il remember case" said the Doctor,
Sin which great injustice was done an
eccentric but good soldier. He had
gone forward TO exchange papers and,
as he had q peculiar walk, his going
forward attracted very general atten-
ton. He dlun't come back, and the
next day our BOYS saw among the
scouts and sllrmlshers on the rebel side
our man with peculiar walk. 1t was
then remembered that he had been a
very disconnected man, and half the
boys in his company believed that he
had deserted. But we afterward learned
that he had attempted to escape the
night of his capture, had been shot and
severely wounded, and that ut the very
time we were so severely criticiZing
him he was suffering in the hospital.
He paid dearly for his little frolic, but
it didn't cure him. He was venture
some, harum. scarum soldier to the last.
but when he left the army he settled
down into a regular thorough-going
business man."

THE ONE WHO GOES.

II is always the one who goes,
We feel. in our heart, was the best
lie was always tender and kind,
And never like the rest.
And yet, IL that one had lived,
And took up the burden of life,
OF turmoil and of care,
In the worlds great ceaseless strife,
We might have thought him vain,
And worldly wise, you know,
Not better than our flirting Bess
Or fiery tempered Joe.
II Kate should die to-day, I'm sure
We would o'erlook her pride,
And selfish Tom would seem as dear,
AS the boy or girl, who died.
