Il LIGHTHOUSE.

High lifted on the island cliff
Its lantern front the sea,
And ssndeth forth a fine, straight ray
OF dazzling light to me-
Asicndcr line of shimmcring shine
Across nights mystery.
1t is the path set for my eyes
To travel to the light
And warm their darkness in the blaze,
And be made glad and bright.
None other may catch Just that ray,
Or have the self same sight.
And yet, a hundred other eyes
Bent on that central blaze,
find each its separate, shining path,
Its line Of guiding rays;
And all eyes meet in concord sweet
Ey all these differing ways.
No voice shall say: ''The Light 10 mine,
All other eyes are DIM"
No hand the glory hold or hide
Which streams to oceans rim.
m claim or seize one ray as his
More than belongs to him.
Light of Truth, which l~ighteneth all,
And shineth all abroad,
what favored soul Or souls shall say:
Mine is the only road"
Each hath his own, to him made known.
And all lead up to God.

ArexAS HORSE TRADE.

Ban JoAnslng Meets Man who Wos Not
- Green - he Seemed.
There il . colored man in Austin,
Texas, by the name Of Sam Johnsing.
He has some money which he has made
trading horses, At which business he is
IN expert. One day Judge Peterby saw
Johnsing trading with an itinerant
horse dealer. Having some curiosity to
know how Sam came out in the trade,
he asked him:
did you sell that fellow your hOrse?"
II did, boss, for q fac"
'How much did you get?"
Twenty dollars"
''Only twenty dollars! Why, you are
. fool. That's a valuable horse"
'Lemme tell you, somethin'. boss.
Dat hoss is lame"
Judge Peterby happened to meet the
horse trader afterwards, and said to
him:
$ you paid twenty dollars for that
horse9"
"Yes, I paid twenty dollars to the
darkey. It's a pretty cheap horse"
"YOu have been swindled. The horse
is lame"
Il know the horse is lame, but it don't
amount to any thing. lie limps because
he has not been property shOd. AS sDon
as I take the shoes off of him he will
not limp a particle. l wouldn't take a
. hundred dollars for that horse"
Half an hour afterward Judge Peter
by me- Sam.
Look here. Sam. you were swindled.
after all. in that horse trade. The lame
ness of the horse is caused by his not
being properly shod."
Il knows he amt properly shod. ] had
him shod dat way on purpose. so as to
make that boss trader berlieve dat he
was lame from dat cause. but dc trOof
am dat he is lame, sure enough. and he
Am gwinter stay lame. lie nebber will
be wuff muffin. Heah! heah! How l fooled
dat boss trader"
The same evening Judge Peterby saw
the horse-trader at the railroad station.
He was just about to leave on the train
for Dallas.
THAT horse is really lame. Sam has
got away with you, after ALL" said
Peterby.
THAT all depends on circumstances.
I think I can cure hat horse: but if !
don't I'm not put any thing" replied the
householder, grinning. ASK sam after
he has tried to change that twenty-dol.

the householder. as he climbed into the

and an exclamation OF surprise went
round. A sneering look relted upon the
faces of the other bidder&
PASS that bid and take up the next
lowest bid" said Doctor Bartram. He
was one of the directors, and WAS n
pompous IS he was o~orpulent, and rather
peremptory in his manner. But the
president had been impressed by Amos
Dorsey's face, voice and bearing.
Excuse me, Doctor" he quietly said,
but I am not disposed to rule out the
bid in such q summary manner. l take
it that he is entitled to hearing.
notice that the bid has been made out
in = remarkably clear and intelligent
manner"
HE is a minor" remarked To doctor,
in a tone which seemed to adj, land
that settles it."
"But his surety may not be-" rerined
the president of the board. ''Mastse
Dorsey, have you security to ofier?"
Il propose to be my own security" re.

The doctor grinncd, tho presidents
face fell, and q litter rel round
for most Of those present knew Amos
and his father, and their impoverished
circumstances.
81 shall insist upon the contract being
awarded to me-" Amos said, with .
flushed face, his tOne that com.
manded attention. l am here to answer
every demand. l have no one to 60 my
bail, but l am ready to deposit with the
board United States bonds to the
amount of the contract"
The announcement was . fresh sur
prise. and a pleased twinkle came to the
presidents eyes.
''TIow o can you make that de.
posit?" he asked. with no look or into
nation of incredulity.
''lIow soon?" asked Amos. "Here and
now. l said / was ready"
lie strobe forward and placed . parcel
on the table. The bonds were exam
ined. They were found to be genuine
and worth $50. 200.
This is satisfactory" said the presi-
dent.
But" objected DIR. Bartram, ''he is .
minor and irresponsible, and, under tho
law"
Doctor" interrupted the president,
Intelligent as the boy seems o be.
there is some n still more intelligent
back of hin. Ill stake my word that
all the conditions will be satisfactorily
met. Somebody has trusted this boy =
thousands of dollars, and We have gOe
to have faith in him, too. have re
spect for his hacker, whoever he may
be-"
The contract was awarded to Amos;
the building gave entire satisfaction,
and the profit to the young contractor
was five thousand dollars, but the work
was of far more value to him than that.
1t brought him into prominence; it
opened the way to fortune and prefer
ment. The latter did not make him
vain, the former increased his DISPOSE
ton to Oblige and his ability to help
others, just as he had been helped. No
body wei knew that the old hermit"
''mean, miserly Silas," was the mar who
had befriended Amos Dorsey, the poor
carpenter boy.

the snow with food and matches" Amos
often thought. "And l fancicd him
