How Mr.. Lowell Furnished His House.
In 1855, Longfellow having resigned his
place as professor of modern languages
and literature, Lowell was appointed his
successor, with leave of absence to perfect
himself in his studies. He went abroad,
but did not remain so long as he had in
tended. In later years he gave an anus
ing explanation of his early return, and
the story is perhaps not unworthy of in
sertion, as it is the thistledowns of char
acteristic humor which are apt to be blown
away from stately biographies. Lowell
said, in a whist party:
81 had given instructions to my banker
in London to notify me when my account
was reduced to a certain sum, and then
settled myself to my studies, keeping no
account of the drafts drew from time to
time. supposed still had good sum to
the fore and a pleasant time in prospect,
but I was surprised one day to receive
notice that my account had got down to
the figure mentioned.
There was nothing to do but to pack up
and go home, which / did. Mark the SCI
quell Some years afterward received a
letter from the bankers stating that owing
to the error of clerk had been charged
with a draft for SO and so many pounds,
which ought to have been deb1ted to the
account of Rnsman of mine, and that
sum with compound interest was subject
to my order. They regretted the incon-
venience had suffered in shortening my
visit, and by way Of compensation they
suggested an investment-ifI did not need
the money at once-which they thought
would turn out well. thanked them and
asked them to invest the money as they
thought best.
well, in year got a draft for nearly
G700. With that I refurnished my house
Now you, who are always preaching fig
ures and Poor Richard and business habits,
what do you say to that? If had kept an
account and known how it stood should
have spent that money, and you would not
now be sitting in those easy chairs or be
walking on a Wilton carpet. No; hang &C.

EBEN N. BALDWIN.
For The Egis and Intellgencer.
In the soft and gentle twilight,
In my rocker and at ease,
Came my little daughter to me,
Saying-"Take me papa, please"
And L took the darling baby
On my knees in loved embrace,
And l planted numerous kisses
On my dimpled darling's face.
Soft she nestled in my bosom,
Tired and weary from her play,
AS she sweetly looked up at me,
Chaslng all my care away,
"How much do you love me darling,
Do you love me very well?"
Yes" replied my darling baby,
Love you more than / can tell ~
Then l pressed her closer to me,
Tears unbidden filled my eyes,
And as thus sat and rocked her,
could feel lump arise
In my throat,-and thus together,
Rocked we in the twilight gray,
Till she slept in sweetest slumber,
Sweetly rested from her play.
/ was tired with care and worry,
From the labor of the day,
How l needed love and pity,
On the rough and stony wayl
And L came unto my Father.
Ever near Him would dwell,
And told Him how loved Him,
Even more than could tell
Oil How sweetly came His spirit,
Driving all my care away
How l love Himl How | trust Him!
Trust and love Him all the day
He so good, aud kind and patient,
Deigns within my soul to dwell.
And know l love Him truly,
Even more than I can tell

DEAR sIR-ln January, 1878, our store was

gloss and freshness. We shall take pleasure in
using it in future. Yours truly,

No. A

the parks and passeos are thronged with gay caballeros and lovely s@noTitAs. Still there is a hush and tranquility in all sounds and seemings- As the night sd- vances in every quarter ut the oaoen city is heard the mandolin and guitar, tremu- lous, pathetic, sweet; like the echo of real tones rather than the vibrant notes them selves. Zephyrus breezes pulse from Ar ric's shores. The shipping rocks gently upon the stAr-mirroring bay. Go where you will, sll is life until long after mid night, but tender and subaued as if the witchings of the trOpic airs lullea 10 re- pose, yet withheld from sleep. And st last as the centinelAs of ibe foItussses upon the heights have chAntea answers tO their challengers with: ''Av~ Maria Pu- risims,-La una, ' iodo sereno." yOu seek your couch in sweet old Palma of the isles, your heart giving back the oeatinels's An- swer that "All is well,'

SOME MORE CONUNDRUMS.

All things appear to be working togeth- CT for the advancement of Woman. A new idea in this line comes from the boundless West. A writer ip the St Lou is Republic calls attention to a change which is taking place as consequence of the growth of county and railroad towns in the West and South.
 The bad effects are most clearly percept- ible in those who are now boys from ten to seventeen years old, and especially in the matter of education. They are sub ject to the full influence of the habits of small towns, while their fathers in the az ricultural communities are too poor to give them a thorough education. As a consequence, they have only the barest smattering picked up in the common schools, and it is hard to get them to take even this much. When they have learned to read and write, they think they have enough, and they want to "stop learning and go to mer- chandising"-whioh means clerking in the grocery store or the general supply store.
 Dub Wullo tfll6 10 GEuO Ol tlC ooJo oAo Ell Ao in the very same communities are getting fair education. They are anxious to learn, and their parents make great sacri- fees to educate them. Female seminaries
 of high grade are kept up in places where the teacher of high grade school for boys would be starved to death. Moreover, the girls are taught enough to enable them to go on learning after their school days are l over.
 In view of this state of things these
 conundrums are propounded: What is to | come of thiss What will girls who have got the very best education their circum- stances afford do with such husbands when 1 they get thema What will be the effect 1 twenty years from now.
