Soft triangle of straw nnd laoo
That corves around my blushing faco
WilU such a coy, bowitcbing grace.
No mortal man would dream your placo    ¦
Was on my hca-l. Your airy touch can scarcely press 'Ihc shape from curl or flowing tress, Su light, so next to notbingccss, Vou surely could not well bo less
And be a bonnet.
A bit of straw adorned wilb leather, A yard of lace, a spray of beatber, Siime bugles and a tossing feather. These trifles shaken altogether— Thus were you mado.
No capo witb starchy nottlDg lined. No buckram crown projects behind; Hut streamers flutter io tbo wind, There flows, in silken mesh confined, My water-fall.
Vet mcst your dainty form I piizc, Aa sweeping back above mino eyes rt lets the drinkled hillock riso, Wliero undtrncatb in auibusb lies My pair of mice.
Hut when rougb autumn winds sweep past, Acd all your laces shake agbnst. Then can you shield mc from tbo llast. And ronnd my neck ashclter cast me warm ?
Alas, a summer friend nro you. And only kind while skies aro blue; I long have known the saying true — Old friends arc better than tho new When trouble comes.
So ere tbo dog-day heats bo fled Let mc your flimsy glories spread; For soon as Winter whistles dread I'll tio ocec more about my head My old scoop bonnet
The tempt*tion I—oh I why cannoi I die ?"
"Toot chad! my poor child I" wM all I coqW utter.
Bound by a vow made at her father's deathbed, she was gomg the next day to marryaman whowasold enough to be herfalher, andwho, bat for the fact of hispersirtingin his claim, spite of her opeDlK<B)preB>e^'^i$Iike of bim,'W^ es- teemeottTery good kind of man.
True, Clara was beautiful and accom¬ plished beyond the average of woman of her class, and it would be a straggle to any man to give up such a prize, backed as he was by the assurances of the stepmother that it was only a girlish fancy, and that love coming after marriage was more to be trusted and more lasting than ifit came before, I confess I was but a poor coun«eL lor under snch circumstances, still I loved her very truly; she was almost as my own daughter, for i;waB a childless widower, and I would have given my life to save her. But it was impossible, and to-mor¬ row wonld seal her fate.
It was not a pleasant journey, that.— Mrs. Webster read and slept at intervals the whole time, and when she slept Clara nestled close to me.
We arrived at Sort about six o'clock and, just as ths train was slacking speed iuto the station, a" guard Jumped on to the footboard, locked, or unlocked the door, and remained there until the train stopped.
"Havo you all your parcels, madam?"
" All, thank you. Uncle Joseph, except my umbrella—oh ! that's under the seat," said Mrs. Web       ater.
Now, guard, unlock thia door."
" Are you with that young lady, sir V' pointing to my niece.
'* Yes, certainly; unlock the door.
"Better not make a fus8,^8ir,''
" Fuss! what do mean ?" ¦ "Step inlo my oiSce.   I dare say it's all right.   Better not say too much here, you know."
We follo'A^ed him through the  little crowd of passengers and porters, accom¬ panied by a policeman in uniform.   As we passed we heard fragmentary ohserva. tions of a most pleasing kind. " Whioh is it?" said some one. " It's the girl, I think," " No, it's the old woman; she looks as if she'd do any one a mischief if it suited her."
"Old man looks too soft for anything," and so on.
We went into the ofEce, and I indig¬ nantly turned to the station master, " What's the meaning of this, air ?" " Oh ? it's very simple, sir; a telegram bas arrived from the police in London with orders lo stop tbis young lady^- here it is." I took it, and read: "The young ladylookingvery ill, dress¬ ed in black silk mantle, whito straw bon¬ net with white flowers, is to be detained at the station till tho arrival of the officer by the afternoon mail.    She is seated in the middle compartment of the third first carriage from the end ofthe train.   Hier present name is Clara Webster.   To avoid the possibility of mistake, she has a dia¬ mond ring on the third finger of her left hand, with the words 'From Herbert,' en¬ graved on the inside."
It certainly was a correct description, and, the name—tbern might be two Clara Wobstora, though. "Let me see your left hand, dear." She pulled off her glove, and there wns the ring.
" Let me see that ring with the diamond in it?"
" TTnole, what doea thW mo.in ? Is any¬ thing wrong al homo ?"
"I'll tell you presently, dear; give me the ring."
She took it off, and gave it to me, and I read ' From Herbert' on the inside.
" Why, that's the ring Mr Langley gave you?"
" What haa he to do with this ?" said
Mrs. Webster.    "Perhaps he "
" He what, madam ?" "Perhaps it did not belong to him, I was going to say."
I saw it was no use to struggle ; when the oflicer came down he would explain the mistake. " Where can we wait?" I said. " Wait, Uncle Joseph? what for 1" "Madam, Ihis telegram orders tho ar¬ rest of your daughter, and her detention here till the arrival of an officer from Lon¬ don."
"But what for?"
" I cannot tell you ; it is useless to COm- pl.tin ; we must wait." I
" I shall do nothing of thekind ; I shall ] at once go and get my brother and Mr. Tredgar to coma down."
" Pray don't, madam; there's no occo- tion fo make more noise about this mat¬ ter than can be helped."
"I shall remain with Clara; you had bettar go on and eay we are coming very soon."
" Your insfruotions don't include this lady or myself?" I asked.
"Not at all, sir; you are both free to go at any time, but the young lady must sUty." "Where?
" Well, sir, I'm sure there's some mis¬ take, and was so from the moment X saw
plimenis tb Miss Webster, and begs to atate that he must decline the fulfillment of his promise to make her his wifa. Tbe unhappy circumstances ofUiia Webster's public arreat, on the oharge of being in p^essionoi a diamond nag, stolen by her former lover, will at once account to her for this decision; Mr. Tredgar'a wife must be above suspicion.
" Mr. Tredgar begs also foiaform Miss Webster that the services of this solicitor, Mr. Blake, (the bearer) are at her dispo¬ sal."
"Well, Mr. Blake," said I, "you see we shall not require your services; I shall wait the event, and, ifit lanot cleared up, shall employ my own solicitor in the mat ter. Will you preaent my kind regards to Mr. Francis Tredgar, and express my own and my niece's admiralion of his gentle-, manly courtesy and kindness? I would write to him, if I did not consider that a correspondence with such a miserable, cowardly scoundrel was too utterly degrad¬ ing to be thought of."
"I shall faithfully convey your message, sir; and allow me to assure you that I was quite ignorant of the contents of tho let¬ ter, and tbat it shall be the last time I ever bear one from him; and now, as yon will not let me help ypu as Ins solicitor, allow me to proffer my services as a friend."
" With all my heart, Mr. Blake; come in here a few minutes before tbe train comes in, and we shall be glad of yonr help."
"Was 1 not right, uncle dear?" said Clara, as soon as we were alone. " Oh! you can't tell how happy I am; I can live now. 0 this glorious mistake! It's the most fortunate thing tbat ever happened to me in all my life. Now, you are glad, uncle, aren't you ?" and she came up to me,
" With all Hope's torches lit in both hor ayes." and kissed me, and would have me speak,
"Yes, darling, I am glad—more glad than I can find words to tell. Your fate; linked to such a man as this scoundrel, would have been a living death. I am heartily glad, Clara."
UNDER SUSPICION.
CIIAI'IEP. I.—THE  ABREST.
" Uncle Joseph, will you seo to tbe lag- gage?"
"Certainly, madam," 1 replied. I al¬ ways oalled my brother's second wife, " madam; " we never quarreled, but each thought that tlie other was the most disa¬ greeable person in tbe uuiveise; and as ¦wo each knew what the other thought, it may be imagined our intercourse was not of a very cordial kind. _Z. did see lo tke luggage, and then took lic.'cets for the party for tho York express by the Great Northern Kailway.
Fortunately we had a compartment to ourselves, that is, Mrs. Webster, my niece Clara, and myself.
" Clara, my dear, you look as ill as you can look; no ono would think that to¬ morrow was your wedding-day."
"Do I look ill, mama?" said Clara, dreamily.
" Yes, my dear, and wretched too. I won^^er you've nol more sense at your age, agirl twenty-five, and brcakiug her he.irt for love of a man who for four years has taken the slightest notice of you."
"Why, it was ono of the conditions^ Mrs. Webster, tbat be should not write," I exclaimed.
Clara said nolhing, but looked ber thimks at her old uncle.
"However, Uncle Joseph, he ought to bave come back and taken his dismissal qV.ietly. 1 havo uo patience with these poor men blighting a girl's chance ot get¬ ting well settled in life in this way ; how¬ ever, thank goodness, il's all over now_ the four years are gone this three monlhs and to-morrow you will be the happy wife f a man whose age will command your re.'jpect, .and whose position will secure you every comfort."
" And one, mama, whom nothing on earth but my solemn promiso to my poor father would make me call husband."
" Well, my dear, it's fortunate for your, future interests that you mado that prom ise I'm sure that Mr. Tredgar is a man after my own he.irt. If I hadn't other views for my children's sake, I should have set my cap at him myself."
"I'oisure, madam, Mr. Tradger would feel only too much honored if ho knew
your sentiments; the candid avowal   of  my house, out ofthe bustle of the station." AHiom is, I think, highly calculated to add       Mrs. Webster went off, and Clara and I to Clara's happiness under existing eir-   went out of the house, cumstanccs." " What can it be, uncle ?"

" But why," said I, "did you not tele¬ graph to Clara direct ?"
" Because I feared that Mra. Webster msght possibly have prevented our meet¬ ing."
Mr. Blake left us witb his eyes twink- ing, and muttered something to me about " servitude for life."
A month after this I had the pleasure of giving away my niece to Herbert, and in two months more I had tbe pleasure of reading in the Times the announce¬ ment of the marriage of Mrs. Webster to Francis Tredgar, Esq., of Tredgar Hall, to wicch ceremony X need scarcely say I was not invited.
Clara and Herbert and I live together, and to this, da^ he is spoken of among his intimates as JEIerbert Langley, "tbat active and intelligent oflicer."

"A TEUE STOEY."
CDAPIEll II.—THE OFFICER.
" This way, sir. The young per is in my house; she gave her word not to attempt to leave; the old gentleman is with her."
This we heard through the door as the station-master came along the passage.— Our friend, Mr. Blake, had arrived some ijme before.
. The station-master entered, and behind him a tall broad-shouldered man, witb bushy beard and moustaches concealing all the lower part of his face.
" Will you have a light, sir ?" said  the station-master to the ofScer. "Thankyou, no."
Clara started at the sound of the voico, and laid her hand on mine.
" Now, my good man," began Mr. Blake, " perhaps you'll explain this matter. You telegraphed down from London to stop this lady, and here she is. Now, if you please, explain."
"This gentleman," I said to the ofEcer, " is my niece's legal adviser. I assume it as a mistake; still, we shall be glad of your explanation. You are a detective, I presume ?"
" No, sir, I ara not; my name is "
"Herbert! Herbert! my dear Herbert! it is you t"
Clara bad gone to him, and he had clasped her in his strong arms, while her face was hidden in his great beard.
" My own 1 luy uariing I my own uarr ing!—sho loves me still!"
But why describe their meeting! Mr. Blake said to mo at once.
"My dear sir, I am not wanted here, and I doubt if you are," and we left them.'
In half an hour we thought it probable we mightbe less in tbe way, and we went in. They sat on tbe sofa at a most suspi¬ ciously great distance from each other, and looked as happy aud foolish as pos¬ sible.
" And now, my dear Herbert, please to
explain to ns wlat has taken you at least
half an hour to make clear to my niece."
" Well, my dear uncle—I may call you
' uncle.'"
" Oh, yes ; a month sooner is not much consequence." " Don't, uncle," said Clara. "You know  how I went away, with just enough to pay for tools, and outfit and passage.   I went to California, to the diggings, and was lucky, got a good claim, worked il, made   a little money, took shares in a machine, worked the claim, improved the machinery, became mana¬ ger director,  and   got ricb ; started six months ago to come home for Clara, took the fever at Panama, was down  for two monlhs tbere, not able to move band or foot, and arrived only last night in Liver¬ pool.    There I met an   old  friend, and heard all the news: poor Webster's deatb, the promise, and the rest, and above all, that to-morrow was the day.   I started by the first train to get to London, t'ainking the marriage would take place, and that I shonld be in time.   Looking out of the window of the' carriage as tho trains wero passing each other at Peterborough, I saw Clara with her mother; I did not see you. I was mad;   the  trains had started;   I could not get on.   There was Clara going from me, and I from her, as fast as ex¬ press trains could go.   What could I do ? I knew nothing of where sbo was goingi
ng tho-pr«ribns
tlie young lady, so if you'll give me your I and yet my information was positive that word not to go away, I'll take you into I she was going to be married lo-morrow,
solely because she would keep her pro¬ mise.
" Can you wonder at my doing as I did? The train did not stop till it reached Lon¬ don, and I found that by the time I had hunted up the address to which you had gone from the servants at home; I should have lost the last train, and not been able to get here till long past midnight. What to do I could not think.
"In the carriage in which I sat some¬ body had been talking about the mur¬ derer, Tawell, and the telegraph, the po, lice on the door-step, and so oo. It all flashed on my mind in an instant.
" I went to the telegraph-office, and looking in, there was   only a  young lad

Yours are keen sufferings, but bear tbem patiently, and use will dull the litiin."
" Bat, uncle, why did he not let me hear from him, as mama says."
" Because ho was a man of honor; the four years were up only last April, and this is but .Inly . „ho can tell where he is ? Wherever he is, ho is faithful and true, I know.''
"Oh! uncle, God bless you for those words. I know it too, but what can I do? I cannot delay longer; my poor father'L dying words, my solemn promUa to marry this man, my stepmother's persecution's —what can I do ? Three montha have I fought, and now I wish I could lie down and die. 0 uncle,, is there no escape? I havo such a dread that he will come back > after I am married, and then—oh I it would be worse than bis death tosee him!

of this; it seems like a break in the dull neps; it puts ojf „,y redding at least a week; mamma herself eould not press it for to-morrow, after this."
We had dined, and got to bo quite cheerful and laughing over tho blunder as we sat at the window, when a rap at the door startled us both.
" Come in."
A gentleman entered.
"Miss Webster?"
Clara bowed.
"Miss Clara Webster,"he said, reading the name from .a letter,
Clara bowed again.
He handec her tho letter,   which she 1 ^^ 'V

I picked up the letter, and calling the

Happening to be spending the winter ofthe year 1800 at Gibraltar, I one day in the course of my wanderings, found myself in the cemetery set apart there for the burial of strangers, Protestants, and the like, who were not members of the Somish cammunion. It was a bare and bleak spot enough, situated on very high ground, and there was not much in the surrounding details and picturesqueness of the graves, as sometimes is the case in foreign burial-places, to interest a sight¬ seer,' with one exception:—In the ex¬ treme eastern corner, and on tho most elevated ground, stood a simple while cross'ofmarble|with initials "M. L." on it, and the date of the person's death ; a wreath of flowei-s encircled the stone, and the grave was I evidently very carefully tended and watched, presenting thereby a considerable contrast to those of the other strangersjwho harffound their last resting-place ori that bleak rock.
So struck was I with the neatness of this individual grave, that seeing an old man forking hard by, I asked him if tbere was any particular history attached to it, and if he knew who the person was that was buried there; his answer did not givo much information, beyond tho fact of its.being thegraveofan English lady who had died there some years before, and whose husband paid him (tbe old man) a small sum yearly for keeping (bat spot in order, nr.d supplying the cross constantly with flowera.
This little incident had ijuite passed out of my mind as a matter too trivial to be worth remenibering, till I was remind¬ ed of it in rather a startling manner a short time sgo.
I was staying at a country house in Yorkkbire, tbe j host and hostess being both.of them old and dear friends of mine, when late one evening the conver¬ sation happened to turn upon a subject suflScientIv oxcitinir to rouse tho moat sleepily inclined of the guests into wake¬ fulness. 11 was debated whether instan¬ ces had ever really occurred of people having been buried alive,—whether, j. c, any authenticated case could be stated of a man who had iTallen into a tr.ince, had beeniin that condition buried, had after¬ wards come to lifo for a brief interval, and then had been suflbcateJ in his cofliin.— Opinions were pretty equally divided on the subject; tbe one party affirming tbat it was impossible, in the present state of medical science, for anybody to meet witb such a horrible fate, and tbe other, though apparently unable to cite any examples, declaring that tboy were sure that such a thing might happen, though they admit¬ ted at tbe same, time that cases of that nature would be less likely to occur in England, where a reasonable time elapsed before burial, than on the Continent, wbere the laws enforced tho interment of the body so soon after death. In the midst of tha disoussian, the lady of tho house.'who bnd seemed to tako but little interest in one way or the other, sudden¬ ly surprised us all by saying that if wo would give ber our attention for a short time, she would tell us a story on that very subject, and relate what had truly occuriod to a uEiar relative of her own, many years before.
"You may have often heard mo men¬ tion," she said, turning to me, " my two cousins, Charles and Frank Livingston, though I don't much think you have ever had a personal acquaintance with either of them. It is just twenty years ago now that tbey fell in love with two of the pret¬ tiest girls iu Yorkshire, sisters and heir¬ esses, whose names were Mary and Flor¬ ence Arden, As tbe progress of their love affairs bad not mucb to do with the gist of my story, it is enough for meto say that every thing wen I on very satisfactorily, and that in due course, and on the same day, Mary and Florence became the wives of my two cousins, Charles and Frank re¬ spectively. Mary was the eldest sister, though at the tiine of their marriage she was barely nineteen, and to my mind the most taking antl loveable of the two; of course, Frank thought differently, and perhaps it was as well he did so.
" I need scarcely tell you that the hap py couples passed their honeymoons very pleasantly in visiting various spots in Eng¬ land and Scotland, and afterwards settled down a few miles from each olher in close proximity in the city of York itself.
" The marriages happened in the spring of the year, audi in the following autumn, much to the delight of the two brides, it was determineti that a yacht should be chartered for a few months, and the winter spent in erasing about from place to place= —their ideas chiefly pointed towards the Mediterranean, as they one and all had a great desire lo visit Malta and Gibraltara and moreover, if possible, to land in Af¬ rica; tbe latter I believe merely that they might have tbe satisfaction of saying that they had once been there. Gibraltar was to be the first phtoe on the list, and accord¬ ingly, after experiencing a rather rough voyage, which tested their capabilities as sailors to  a  considerable   extent,  they found themselves anchored oS'that huge rock.   They saw all that was to be seen in Ihe shape of the fortificationa, &o., and among other places that they were taken to viait was the|buryiog-gronnd set apart for strangers who were no Koman Catho¬ lics.   Mary Livingston, who had been, so they afterwards recollected, silent and ap¬ parently pre occupied all that day, when she first caught sight of the cemetary started, and seemed surprised; after they had looked abtlut them, and lamented the general untiainess that prevailed, she suddenly astonished them all by walking to one corner of the gronnd more elevated than the rest, ] where she stopped, and planting'her fcot upon a certain spoliaid that she was «;oing to relate  a  curious

The horror of her situation^ as she waa beibg lowered into the earth seemed to giv^ her strength, and in the aot of striving to cry out she awoke; what seemed so cuiibus to her was, tbat though she had never eeen the burial ground be¬ fore, or the rosd that led to it, yet, when she came to vint tbem the day after her dream, ahe found that the reality was ex¬ actly like the dream."
" Well, but^" I interrupted, " you haven't told us'anything yet that "
" Excuse me," replied our hostess, "bnt if you will do me the favour of waiting till I bavo finidhed my story you will find you will have no reason to complain.
" Her husband and her friend laughed at Mary for her evident belief in her dream, and ascribed the whole oironm- stance to indigestion; they did not, how¬ ever, atay much longer in the cemetery, but returned to the yacht.
" Two days afterwards, and on the even" ing before that on which they proposed leaving Gibraltar' Mary Livingston was suddenly taken ill; a doctor was at once sent for, who pronounced her attack to be a slight one pf tbe cholera, assuring her friends at the same time that they need not be under any apprehension of danger. Next day, however, l!ie symptoms changed for tho worse, and so rapidly, that before evening it was evident that; she was sinking fast, and that no hopes could be retained of ber recovery. She died during the night. Hec husband as you may imagine, was overcome with grief, bul he bad to stifle his feelings, and settle SU things connected with her fune¬ ral, which was obliged to take place on the evening of the very day after she died.
All, as I ?ra3 told afterwards, happened according to tbat dream of beis; she was carried along that steep road, and her grave had been dug on the very spot where but a few days ago she had stood before them full of life and beauty; but strange to say, and almost incredible, neither her husband nor sister remem¬ bered tho cirsumstance of ber relating her dream to them; and it was not until eome six or seven montbs afterwards, that one evening in the twilight of their York- shirs home, tho memory of tho stroll Ibonght tbo burial-ground and the event connected with it flashed across tho mind of the widowed husband. Hemorse at the thought of its being now all to late was his first feeling, and then an irrepressi¬ ble desire seized him—a longing to see if his darling's uream had come t-mv, bhu h
she had, in reality, been buried alive. As fast as il was possible for him to do so, he hurried to Gibraltar; it was with some difficulty tbat he obtained permission to have tbo ground opened, and when he had succeeded he found Ihal bis worst fears had beon realised; there was no doubt left in his mind that his wife had recovered consciousness after she--had baen supposed by all to bo dead, for the body was turned partly on one side, as if with the effort of trying to free itself from the icy grasp of the tomb. From the date of thaldiscovery, he has never ceased to reproach himself for being in somo part the cause of her death; but he has never ceased to wonder how it was that the recollection of that dream of hers passed so quickly from his mind, and was was not revived till so long afterwards,
" Her grave, be told me, is marked by a white cross of marble, with tbe initials M. L. on it and the date of her death."
The tale of our hostess was finished; and as sbe ended, tbe memory of that grave with its wreath of flowers and the bleak graveyard came into my mind, and made the probability of tbe story more|apparent to me. I bave told tbe tale as it was told to mo; for myself I believe it to be true: for my readers they must decide for themselves.
The names, of course, have beeu altered, as, for aught I know to the contrary, some of the actors in that curious dream are living still.

The Acadeihy boys were not bad, aa boys go. They were not profane nor mean, as a general thing. "They did not lie or steal. They were just such boys as you, young folks, are. But then, you know, all boya have moi e or less of the savage still clinging to them. This is not anything very bad, for do we not often speak of the "noble savage?" But Dr. Alcott's boys were a little more wild-In¬ dian like than usual one afternoon, be cauae they were out on a tramp and frolic to the Mayne Woods; and just as they trooped through the lane Farmer Pennell came along riding on his old white mare, —a sorry beast. Her whiteness was weath¬ er-worn and time-worn into a gray thai was yet hardly, venerable. Her ribs were uncommonly numerous and very promi¬ nent. Her—what do you call it, shoul¬ der-blades?-stuck up like the pommel of a saddle. Then she had no tail to speak of, but if you should speak of it a "bob¬ tail." As a graceful variation of the straightliue in which she usually oarried her necic, she would occasionally give her bead a huge upward toss and shake, then drop it near to the ground, and then re¬ sume the placid straight line again. Also, she had the spring-halt. She would draw up one of her legs almost close to her body, and set it down cautiously every time she started; wherefore it took her a log time to start, and sbe was not swift even after sbe bad started. So when she came down the lane bearing Farmer Pen¬ nell, with a gentle but jarring trot, no saddle or bridle, but a fragmentary w.igon harness dangling and dragging from ber sides,—why, it was a little comical, to be sure, and nobody could have been blamed for a quiet remark or two, or even a side laugh. But such expiession did not at all ratisfy the Academy boys. You would bave thought it a sight the most ridicul¬ ous that- was ever seen. They laughed and shouted and held their sides.

Sea Soundiko.—"Various sea sounding, made by the new telegraph company in Eagland, in preparation for laying tbe Atlantic submarine  cable this summer, reveal the following results: The Baltic Sea between Germany and Sweden is only 120 feet deep, and tho Adriatic between Venice and Trieste 130.    The greateat depth of the channel between Franco and England does not exceed 300, while lo the southwest Ireland, where the sea is open ed, the depth is more than 2000 feet.— The seas to the South of Europe are much deeper than those in the interior.     In the narrowest part of the Strait of Gibral tar the depth is only 1000 feet, while a little more to the east it is 3000'   On the coast of Spain the depth is  nearly COOO feet,— At 250 miles south of Nantucket (south of Cape Cod,) no bottom was found at 7800 feet.   The greatest depths of all are to be met with in the Southern Ocean.   To the west of tbe Cape of good Hope 10.000 feet have been measured, and to the west of St. Helena, 27.000.   Dr. Young estimates the average depth of the Atlantic at 20000 feel, and of the Pacific at 20.000.
TnnsT AND Look Upward.—The Lord has died; despond not.   The Lord is ris¬ en ; doubt not.   The Lord reigneth; hesi¬ tate not.   The Lord returneth; delay not. Believe, and that with all simplicity and wilb all joy.   Believe, and bring before him the wants of thine own heart and daily life, the daily requirements of thy soul; trust and look upward.   Believe and bring before him  tbe wants of thy friends, both for body and soul; trust and      Ico upward.    Believe, and bring before him the wants ofthe church; trust and look upward.   Believe, and bring be¬ fore him the wants of the world; and still tmslingly Ipok  upward.     "The   night Cometh, and also the morning."   Soon the Lord shall return, and thpu shaltwel- come bim, thou and all saints; nay, earth itself, aud all that dwell therein.   Then occupy till he oome; and if, before that day dawn, thou art called to reat, lie down to sleep in hope of the blessed resurrec. lim, and the coming of the Lord with ten thpusand of his saints.    Even bo Lord Jesus, come quickly 1—Dr. Edersheim.
" Vance-guard Kilpatrick's cavalry going on a rad to Byington." That was Joe Fillo, wbo was too lazy to find out wheth¬ er r a-i-d spelt one thing br another.
"Going at 2-40, going, going, gone," cried Frank Halston. .4.nd so they amus¬ ed themselves till borse and rider were out of sight and outof mind, and a squir¬ rel or a woodchuck's hole aroused their interest anew. After a merry afternoon they went home to supper as hungry and noisy and uproarious as the little savages they were.
Bul next morning a message camo to Mr. Joseph Fillo, Mr Edward Cushlee and Mr. Frank Halston, tbat Dr. Alcott wished to see them in his study. The three held a hurried consultation at the foot of the stairs, for it was ho laughing matter to be summoned to an official in¬ terview. " What's the row ?" queried Edward.
"Rows enough," answered Joe, "if a fellow comes to reckon 'em up, but whioh perlikler one dp you supppse he's got scent of?"
"It's the circus, most likely," aaid Frank. " I believe I shall own up right ofl'."
" And more fool you," cried Joe pet¬ tishly. " What do you want to souse bead first into a stew for? P'r'aps't is n't tbat. Lay low, ctn't you? Time enough to speak when you're spoken to." And witbout coming to any unanimous agree¬ ment, the trip proceeded somewhat trem¬ ulously into the august presence of Dr. Alcott.
" So, young gentlemen," he ssid when the salutations wore over, for Dr. Alcott was always courteous to bis boys. "I bear that you have been rather strenuous io your attentions to my friend Mr. Pennell,' My friend Mr. Pennell! Thep started in unaffected astonishment, and some little explanation was necessary to recall their minds the incident of the afternoon be¬ fore.
" O, is that all ?" spoke Frank abrupt¬ ly, quite thrown off hia guard, " 1 thought—"
" What ?" said the Doctor, pleasantly, as Frank hesitated.
" Well," replied Frank, confusedly, blushing and twirling his thumbs, " I did nol know but—"
" Nor did I know either. But I think you will do well to tell me the whole story;" nnd, with those pleasant, yet de¬ termined and searching eyes fastened upon him, Frank did tell the whole story of an afternoon's escapade, a fortnight be¬ fore, to a wandering circus; and honest¬ ly confessed they did not ask leave, be¬ cause they thought it would not be grant, ed. "Butwe ran fpr luck, sir," he said earnestly; "wesbyed oft'a little, but we took tbe risk. We didn't mean to lie about it anyhow."
" I rather think I do not need to be as¬ sured of that," said the Doctor, with a warmth of confidence' that made.their young hearts glow, and that would have amply atoned for far severer scoldings and penances than their good.natured master ever administered. "But you must make an apology to Mr. Pennell," he said, em¬ phatically, after having set before them the true character of their behavior.
" Yes, SU-," they answered, charmed lo be let off so easily.
"Such an apology as shall satisfy him, and not be mere words to shield ypur- selvea. frem punishment. Such an apclogy as shall restore agentleman's self-respect when he has unwittingly been guilty of a gross breach of prpprieiy."
"Yes,   sir,"    they   reappuded   again,
swallpwing tbe implied rebnke, but sweetr
ening it with theimplied characteriiation;
" I select you three as the oldest '.boys
refuse .heartily and sincerely to apologize, seh'd them me."
Ppssibly the pthcr boys were very sligbtly. influenced! I by. this alternative, but certainly tbey all gave in their adbe- afon to the apology, and wh'en'echlsbl was over, the three; boys .started aorosa the fields, the tiearest way to Farmer Pen- nell'e. They found hira gathering cider- apples in his prchard^
" Good mpnjing, Mr.'Pennell," began frank, and bleared bis throat for action, f.' C^oodart-ripbn," responded Mr. Pen¬ nell, with a sly twinkle in his roguish old eyes.        '-
"0, afternoon I mean, of course," said Frank, blushing and kughing at this be¬ trayal of hia uneasiness;" but yon know what we've come for, Mr. Pennell. We're a set of Ecainps, that's, what we are; but wa didn't mean anything only fun, and now won't ydn forgive us?" "Master'sbeen aroiin', eh ?" " Well, yee,"r—hesitated Frank. " But we think il'a^mighty mean our own selves," said Edword, quickly; "only it was funny,'' he added, dismayed to find himself ready to laugh again at the re- mernbranbe.
"0, wall, I'll forgiveyouquick enough," said the placid old man, "jes' liv as not. 'Taint no matter. Only'taint a good way for young gentlemen to be brought up, to fliifg out at an old fellow if he aint quite BO handsome."
'f That's so I" cried Joe, enthusiastical¬ ly, for him. " It's worse'n that. It's right 'up and down low,—handsome or no handsome. And if yo\i,oatoh me doing it again, you may roast me and spit me and eat me.   That's all."
"That's enough," said Mr. Pennell, laughing. " What's the good of goin' in¬ to fits if you have got out o' kilter once in a way ? An' 'taint me, arterall, that's the tronble. I don't mind laughin' al me. My feelins is tough, but I don't want no¬ body !lo be a pokih' fun at my boss. Now that air boss," said he, approaching and patting her ridged sides admiringly, as tho patient creature stood waiting to draw the full cart to the barn,—" that air mare, she's a geod creeter. She aint quite so spry as some, mebbe,—a little stiff in tbo jints,,and not so handsome as she was when I first knowed bernigb thirty years ago. Bnt she's a trusty creeter, and she's got.a sight o' wear in her yet. She knows me like a book, and all the roads round in this country, sir, like you know your alphabet. I waa comin' home in a snow¬ storm once so thick you couldn't see your hand afore you, and I got sort o'bewild- ered like, and didn't know where I waa no more'n the dead, and she wouldn't go this way and would go tbat, till I fin¬ ally give up and let ber bave her own head, and she never took a b ick track, but brought up at the stable door. She aint a gay beast, but I don't wanl nobody naggin'at her. Come, jump on, an' go up and have some eider."
Nothing loath, the boya climbed up the sides of the rickety old cart, and found precarious footing and hand-ing some¬ where on its jutting timbers, and I sup¬ pose they would rather have hung on by their elbows than have walked; and Far¬ mer Pennell cracked his whip, which old Dobbin did not mind 'at ill, for sbe knew it would not hit her, and if it did, ber hide was like leather, and it would .not
