Grandmother.

Nearer to heaven as the years 60 by
Led by the guiding Hand;
Silver the locks that once were gold
Watching the dropping sand:
But dearer and fairer than ever before
To the heart of her stalwart son,
Who sees in her eyes of faded blue
His boyhood's s love-the eyes he knew
Slower the hands in the knitting work
Stiff with the clasp Of Time;
Fading the home scenes meet her
now,
Under the old home-vine:
But dearer and fairer than ever before
To the gray head bent at her side,
Who sees but the hands he pressed so
tight,
One far, far eve, on his wedding night.
Clearer the Sabbath church bells
sound,
Down through the hush Of yore,
Bidding her come in the early morn
Where loved ones meet once more:

To husband and wife as one,

CHAPTER XVI.

We got our bearings. a pair of boots
for D'ri, and hearty rl:al in the cabin
Of settler. The good man was unfa-
miliar with the upper shore, and we
got no help in our mystery. Starting
west, in the woods, on our way to the
harbor, we stopped here and there to
listen, but heard only wood-thrush and
partr!dge-the fife and drum of nature
That other music hah gone out of
hearing. We had no compass, but D'ri
knew the forest as crow knows the
air. He knew the language of the
trees and the brooks. The feel of the
bark and what he called "the lean of
the timber" told him which way was
south. River and stl cam had a way
Of telling him whence they had come
and where they were going, but he had
no understanding of map. I remem-
ber, after we had come to the harhor
at dusk and told our story, the gen.
eral asked him to indicate our landing
place and our journey home on a big
map at headquarters. D'ri studied the
map brief while. 7.here was a look
Of embarrassment on his sober face.
Seems SO we come ashore bout
here" said he, dropping the middle
finger of his right hand in the vicin-
ity of Quebec. "Thrn we travelled
aw-a-a-ay hcllwards over n this ere
direction" With thst Illuminating re-
mark he had slid his finger over some
200 leagues of country from Quebec to
Michigan.
They met us with honest joy and no
little surprise that evening as we ceme
into camp. Ten of cur comrades had
returned, but as for ourselves, they
thought us in for long stay. We
said little of what we had gone
through, outside the small office at
headquarters, but somehow it began to
travel, passing quickly from mouth to
mouth, until 1t got to the newspapers
and began to stir the tongue of each
raw recruit. Gen. Brown was there
that evening, and had for me, as al
ways, the warm heart of a father. He

ST. Petersburg, May 31.-The ser

the complete destruction of the Rus

of peace, but whether it is advisable
to yield to the popular demand for
the immediate convocation of a ma
tional assembly
The catastrophe which has overta-
ken the Russian fleet has given tre-

the emperor for the immediate con
vocation of a national assembly with
