MEMORIES.

Once more, onrc moro, my Mar:. dear,
sit by that lone stream
Where first within thy ,irnd car
/ breatlicd loves burning dream.
The birds we loved still tell their tale
OF music ON each spray,
And sill the wild rose decks the vale,
But thou art far away.
In vain thy vanished form seek
BY wood and stream and dell
And tcars of anguish bathc my cheek
Where tears of rapture fell,
And yet beneath these wildwood bowers
Dear thoughts my soul employ,
For in the memories of past hours
There is II mourntul joy.
Upon the air thy gentle words
Around mo seem to thrill,
Like sounds upon the wind hnrp's chords
When all the winds are still,
Or like the low and soullike swell
OF that wild spirit tone
Which haunts the hollow of the bell
When its sad chime is done
seem to hear thee speak my name
In sweet, low murmurs now.
seem to feel thy breath of flame
Upon my check and brow.
On my cold lips feel thy kiss,
Thy heart to mine is laid
Alas that such dream of bliss
Like other dreams must fade.

They We're taken down from the lips of

youngest daughter of General Nathan
ael Greene. The following is one of the
stories:
During my life ut Dungeness q cir
cumstance occurred there of some his
toric and scientific interest and i'll re-
gard to which much erroneous state
mcnt has been made. | refer to the in
vcntion OF the cotton gin by Eli Whit
ney and my mothers connection with
it: The facts, briefly stated, were about
as follows: While spending tho preyi-
Gus summer ut Newport, II. l., my
mother became acquainted with Mr..
Whitney and grew much interested in
the outcome of the experiments he was
then making i'll the interest of his pro-
jectcd gin. To assist in his enterprise,
my mother invited him to spend the
following winter at Dungeness, where
an abundance of cotton and quiet could
be assured. Mr.. Whitney accordingly
came to Dungencss, and diligently pur-
sued his experiments, a room in the
fifth story having been specially fitted
for his use us an inventor. One MORN
ing he descended headlong into the
drawing room, where q number Of
guests were assembled aud excitedly
exclaimed, The victory is minev In
deep sympathy with him the guests
and hostess went with him to his work
shop. Whitney set his model in motion.
For few moments the miniature saws
revolved without hindrance and the
separation of the seed from the cotton
wool was successfully accomplish, but
after little the saws clogged with lint,
the wheel stopped, and poor Whitney
was in despair.
Here's what you need, exclaimed
my mother i'll her clear, decisive way,
and she instantly seized clothesbrush
lying on the mantel and held it firmly
to the teeth of the saws. Again the
drum revolved, and instantly the saws
were cleaned Of the lint, and the last
requirement of the great invention was
satisfied.
Madam said Whitney, overcome
with emotion and speaking with the
exaggeration of gratitude, you have
perfected my invention!'"

and started home with him. On the
way he was suddenly surrounded by IL
body of Siamese soldiers, who began to
beat and batter him with their muskets.
He resisted and backed up against a
wall and laid about him with his cane
lively. Some missionaries who came by
persuaded the vice consul to let the SOL
diers take his clerk back to the police
station, which he did. The soldiers had
stopped him and beaten him for taking
the clerk away before the police court
had released him.

Parepa Rosa

A poor widowed woman, lead
ing hard life of unendiug labor,
was called on to part with the
one thing dear to hear-her only
child. Mother and daughter mad
toiled together for fifteen years,
and the only bit of sunshine fall
ing into their dark lives was that
shed by their loving companion
ship. But the girl had always
been weakly. Under the heart
broken mothers eyes she faded
and wasted away with consump-
ton, and at last the day came
when the wan face failed to an
sWcr with smile the anxious,
tear-bliuded eyes of the mother.
The poor young creature was
dead.
For many months the pair had
been supported by the elderly
Woman'S sewing, and il was in

full heart turned in her last hours
to the small number of friends
she possessed, and she besought
her mother to notify me Of the
day of the funeral and ask me to
attend.
The summons reached me upon
one of the widest days preceding
| Christmas. A sleet that was not
rain, and a rain that was not
snow, came pelting from all
points of the compass. [ piled

closer the curtains and shut out

down, devoutly thankful that !

wicked weather, when an INSTALL

the shape OF Parepa Rosa. She
was Euphrosyne Parepa OF that
time, and the operate idol of the
city.
And even as we graduated
ourselves on the prospect Of a
delightful day together, here
came the summons for me tC
go to that humble funeral Of the
poor sewing Woman'S daughter
| turned the little tear blotted
note over and groaned.
"This IS terribie,' said |. Its
just the one errand that could
take me out today, but | must

canvas-back hearse, peculiar to
the twenty-five dollar funeral,
stood in the street below, and the
cherry-stained box, with its ruff

on uncovered treStles in the cen

There was the mother, speech

a group of hard working kindly
hearted neighbors sitting about.
1t was useless to say the poor
woman was prepared for the in

speak to her of the daughters

The bereft creature, in her utter
loneliness, was thinking of her

box and its precious burden would
be taken away and leave her
wholly alone. So, therefore, with

some selected sentences from the
