"NOTSH UT IN.''


shut in" did you say, my sisters
., no! Only led away
Out of the dust and turmoil,
The burden and heat of the day,
Into the cool, green pastures,
BY the waters calm and still,
Where l may lie down in quiet
And yield TO my Fathers will.
Earth's ministering ones come round me,
With faces kind and sweet,
And we sit and learn together
At the loving Saviour's feet:
And we talk of lifes holy duties.
OF the crosses that lie in the way,
And they must go and do them,
While lie still and pray.
am not shut in, my sisters,
For the four walls fade away,
And my soul goes out in gladnesS
To bask i'll the glorious day.
This wasting, suffering body,
With its weight of weary pain,
Can never dim my vision,
Nor ever my spirit restrain.
/ wait the rapturous ending,
Or, rather, the entering In
Through the gates that stand wide open,
But admit no pain or sin.
am only waiting, sisters,
Till the Father calls: Come Homer
Waiting with my lamp all burning
Till the blessed Bridegroom come.
-Inrdlid, in The HOuSekeeper."

Departed Grandeur For Sale.

In old St. Stephens, famous in song and story, parish of Berkeley county. on the banks of the tawny Santee, some 30 miles in a straight linefrom the shores of the Atlantic, is great landed estate whose broad acres, level river bottom and rolling highland, cultivated fields tangled swamp, stately pine grove groups of live oak, with here and there a bit of virgin forest, form domain fit for a prince. On it have lived and died a long succession of Carolina planters, all princes in their day, to whom, while slavery lasted, snowy fields of cotton and waving crops of Indian corn and smaller grain furnished princely revenue. And the cattle, if not of thousand hills, of thousand canebrakes, was theirs, and droves of wild hogs, that throve in the thickets of the swamps, and blood horses were their pride.
 All that is gone by now. The lordly life of the planter has passed away for ever; slavery has been abolished, and the owner of the land, wearied of the struggle with demoralized freedmen, would fain give up the fight and offers his patrimony for sale for song, for barely enough to support him comfort ably for the decade of life that may yet remain to him. There are 5000 acres in that estate, which is offered to any taker at very little over $2 an acre. Of that 8,000 acres there is arable land capable of producing 8 bale of cotton to the acre 90 to 30 bushels of corn, over 70 bushels of oats, to say nothing of the possibilities of fruits and vegetables and of horse cattle and hog raising Charleston News and Courier.

Some Americans Abroad.

Let an American of certain intellec- tual grade get taste of English society, and he is done for. No snob, native to that land of snobs, is more exquisitely thrilled or entirely conquered by smile or handshake from a nobleman than is the American parvenue. If he stays, he turns Tory, and like that secretary of our legation who has the Astors in tow becomes thoroughly anglicized." Look at Ashmead- Bartlett. who married his grandmother, Miss Burdett-C -Coutts, and went to parliament to vote against the progress of democracy.
 Look at George w. Smalley, Mir. Whitelaw Reid's resident correspondent in London for the New York Tribune. The man has gone on until he fancies himself to be fox hunting, hard drink ing, violent tempered, bluff and hearty country squire of the olden time. And he writes like one. See how our men and women who go abroad push and cringe and intrigue and squabble for the awful honor of bending their knees before the dull and virtuous old lady whom the English people choose to keep as ruler without power, and who rep resents only the principle of hereditary government which this republic kicked out of doors 100 years ago and more.
 No wonder Englishmen of sense have only laughter and contempt for our pre- tensions of superior political wisdom when this spectacle and others like it in motive are constantly before their eyes. San Francisco Argonaut.

Queen vic's Unfortunate Poem.

The first number of the new weekly, The Magazine Journal, containing humorous poem attributed to her maj esty before her marriage, has suddenly been withdrawn from circulation. Upon inquiry it appears that high govern ment official called upon the editor, MT. Stuart Robertson, and that gentleman, in company with, the subeditor, attended later on.
 MT. Stuart Robertson is naturally somewhat reticent as to what took place at the interview, but he states that he was most courteously received and that as an intimation was conveyed to him that the publication of the lines would be distasteful to the highest quarters he unhesitatingly withdrew the number from circulation. The poem in question is simply a skit on the peculiarities of the ministers of the day.-Irish Times.
