Of eyesight dim, and feeble tread ?

Hire mado thee like the autumn leaf,
Ready, by blast or self-decay.
From its slight hold to drop away '
And some sad sad morn may gild thy bior

Oh, who shall seo another year?
Shall you, the young? or you, the fair?
Ah ! tho presumptuous thought forbear!
' Within this churchyard's peaocful bouni.o,
Come, pause and pondor o'er the mounds !
Hero beauty sleeps that verdant length
Of grave contains what onoe was strength ;
The child the boy the man are here
You may not see another year !
Another year, another yoar,
Oh, who shall see another year ?
Shall I, whose burning thirst of fame
No earthly power can quench or tame?
Alas! that burning thirst may soon
Bo o'er, nnd all beneath the moon
All my fine visions, funoy-wrnught,
And all this vortex whirl of thought,
Forever cease and lUappcar,
Ere dawns pn earth unothcr year !
TALES & SKETCHES.
'II li: FACTOR V Oil 11 1...
BT AMY RANDOLPH.
It was a little Bttulio, quite at the top of
tho house. Upon tho easel that occupied
the post of honor in tho middle of the room,
a piece of cunvass glowed with the soft tints
of n priu landscape, and Frank Seymour
stood bul'ure it, piilctte iu hand, his large
brown eyes dreamy with a sort of inspira
tion. ' ' ' "
In a comfortable enjy chair by the door
sat a plump, rosy little lemale, in a luce
cap with plenty of narrow, white satin rib
bon fluttering from it, and a silver-grey pop
lin dress Mrs. Seymour, in fact, our artist's
mother, who has just come up from the very
basement "to see how Frank was getting
ulong." j
"Here, mother," said the young man,
with an enthusiastic sparklo in his. eyes,
"just see the way that sunset light tourches
the topmost brunches of the old maple tree.
I like the brown, subdued gold of that tint;
it somehow reminds 1110 of Grace Teller's
hair."
Mrs. Seymour moved a litt'.o uneasily iu
her chair.
"Yes, it's very pretty; bnt it strikes mo,
Frank, you are lately discovering a good
many similitudes between Miss Teller and
your pictures."
Frank laughed good humoredly.
"Well, mother, she is pretty."
"Yes, I don't deuy that Bhe's pretty
enough,"
"Now mother, what's the meaning of that
ambiguous tone!" denmnded the young
in list, pleasantly. " W hat have you discover
ed about Miss Grace Teller that isn't charm
ing and womanly nnd lovely ?"
"Frank do you know who she is?"
"Yes, I know that she's a remarkable
pretty girl, with a voice that sounds exactly
like tho low, soft rivulet where I used to
play when I was a boy."
"Nonsense," said Mr. Seymour sharply.
"Well, then, if you're not satisfied with
her ns she is. would you like to know what
she will bet"
Mrs. Seymour looked puzzled.
"Mother, I think gho will one day be my
wife 1"
"Frank ! Frauk ! are you crazy ?"
"Not that I know of," said Mr. Seymour,
composedly, sqeezing a little deep blue on
hi3 palette out ot a dainty un tuue, ami
mixing it thoughtfully.
" e know so htllu about lier," thought
Mrs. Suvmour. "To be sure, she js visiting
Murv Elton, and Mary belongs to a very
good familv, if she does live in half a house,
. -.. f - 1!..!
ana tawe in nne cinuroiuery ior n living.
But then she has no style at all compared
with Cynthia Parker, and Cynthia always
did fancv our i 'rantr. men, moreover, sue
has five thousand dollars of her own. But,
dear me 1 A young mau in love is the most
head strong creatuie ulive !
Mrs. Seymour mused a while longer, and
then put on her mouse colored silk bonuet
aud grey shawl and set out upou a tour of
investigation.
"I'll litid out something about Miss Teller,
or I'll know tho rcasou why," thought the
iutiefuliguble widow. ,
Miss Grace Teller wns "at home," helping
Mary Elton in an eluborate piece ot Ono
embroidery. The room where the two girls
sat was very plulD, carpeicu wuu uie cuchij
tst ingrain and curtained w ith very ordiuary
pink uud white chintz, yet it looked snug
aud cheery, lor the fut blackbird was chirp
ing noibily in tue wuiuow, anu a atuuu in
uiignionette and velvet blossomed pausies
gave a delicate refinement to tho details of
every day life.
Mary Elton was pale, and not at all pret
ty, though thero was a tremulous sweetness
about her mouth that seemed to whisper
that she might have been very different un
der different circumstances. Gruco Teller
was a lovely blonde, w ith large blue eyes,
rose-leaf sktu and hair whose luminous gold
fell over her forehead like an aureole.
As Mrs. Seymour eutered a deeper shade
of piuk stole over Grace's beautitul cheek,
but otherwise she was calm and self posses
sed, and readily parried the old lady's in
terrogatorits. "Very warm this morning," said the old
lady funning herself. "Do they .have as
warm weather where you como from, Miss
Teller?'' .
"I believe it U very sultry In Factory ville."
said Grace, composedly takiog another
needleful of white silk. .
"Factory ville I Is that your native place 1
Perhaps, then, you know iir. barker Cyn
thia Parker' father who superintends the
great calico mills iu that place 1"
"Very well I have often seen him."
"Ara you acquainted with hia daughter,
Cynlhia!" . ' .
"No I believe Miss Parker spends most
of her time iu this city." '
"That U very true," said Mrs. Bcymour,
sagely.
"Cynthia often says there's no society
worth having in Factory vilUs only the girls
that work in the factory; and Cynthia Is
very genteel. But excuse my curiosity Miss
Teller how did you become acquainted
with Mr. Parker, and not with, his daugh
ter r
, Grace colored.
"Business brought me In contact frequent
ly with the gentleman of whom you speak,
but I never happened to meet Miss Parker."
Mra. Seymour gaw little start in bar
chajr she ja beginning to see through tha
mystery. ' ." . t
19, 1867.
OLD
"Perhaps you have something to do with
the calico factory 1" .
"I have," said Grace with calm dignity. .
"A factory girl ?" gasped Mrs. Seymour,
growing red and white.
Is there any disgrace in tuis title V quick
ly asked Grace, although her own cheeks
were dyed crimson. -
"Disgrace! Oh, no certainly not; there's
no harm in earning one's living in an hon
est way," returned Mrs. Seymour, absently.
Tho fuct was, she was thinking in hor in
most mind, "what will Frank say?" and
anticipating the flag of triumph she was
about to wave over him.
"I do not hesitate tn confess," went on
Grace, looking Mrs. Seymour full ia the
face, that to the calico factory I owo my
daily bread."
"Very laudable I'm sure," said the old
lady, growing a little uneasy under tho blue
clear gaze, "only there are steps and gra
dations in society, you know, and and I
am a little surprised to find you so intimate
with Miss Elton, whoso family is "
Mary came over to Grace's bide, and stoop
ed to kiss her cheek.
"My dearest friend my most precious
companion," she murmured, I should be
quito lost without her Mrs. Seymour."
Tho old lady took her leave stiffly; nnd
did not ask Grace to return her call, although
she extended an invitation to Mary, couched
in the politest and most distinct terms.
"Frank I" she ejaculated, never once stop
ping to remove shawl or bonnet, and burst
ing into her sons studio like an express mes
senger of life-and-death news, "who do you
suppose your paragon of a Miss Teller is?"
"Tho loveliest of her sex," returned Frank,
briefly and comprehensively.
"A factory girl I" screamed the old lady,
at the height of her lungs, "a fac-to-ry girl!"
"Well, what of that ?"
"What of that? Frank Seymour, you
never mean to say that you would have any
thing to do with a common factory girl."
"I should pronounce her a very uncom
mon factory girl, mother," said the young
man, with aggravating calmness.
"Frank, aon't jest with me," pieattea too
poor little mother with tears in her eyes.
"Tell 1110 at once that you wui give up
that idlo fancy for a girl who ia in no respect
equal to you.
"iso she is in no respect my equal," re
turned Frank, with reddening check and
snnrklins eve. "but It is becuuse she is in
every respect my superior. Grace Teller is
one of tho noblest women that breathed this
terrestrial nir, ns well as one of the most
beoutiful. Mother I love her, and she has
promised to be my wife."
Mrs. Seymour sat down, limp, lifeless and
despairing.
"Frank, Frank, I never thought to see my
son marry a factory girl."
And then a torrent of tears came to her
relief, whilo Frank went on quietly touch
ing up the scarlet foliogef a splendid old
maple in the foreground of his picture.
' "So you are determined to marry me,
Frank, in spite of everything ?"
Grace Teller had been crying ; tho dew
was wet on her eyelashes, and the unnatu
ral crimson on her checks ns Frank Seymour
came in, and Mary Elton considerately
slipped out "to search, for a missing pat
tern." "I should rather think so," said Frank,
looking admiringly down on tho golden
head that was stooping among the pausies.
"But your mother thinks mo far below
you in social position."
"Sociul position be ignored t What do
I care for sociul position, as long ns my little
Gracio has consented to make the sunshine
of my home."
"Yes, but Frank "
"Well but Grace?"
"Do you really love me?"
For answer he took both the fair, delicate
littlo hands in bis, and looked steadily into
her eyes.
"Frank," said Graco Teller, demurely, "I
am afraid you'll make a dreadful strong
willed, obstinate sort of a husband."
"1 shouldn't wonder, Grucic."
And so the golden twilight faded into a
purple softer than the shadow of eastern
ainethvslD, and the stars came one by one,
and still Frank and Gracio talked on, aud
still Mary Elton didn't succeed in finding
that pattern.'
Mra. Sevmour was the first guest to ar
rive nt Mrs. Randall's select soiree on the
first Wednesday evening iu July ; the fuct
was. she wanted a chance to confide her
grief to Mrs. Kandall's sympathetic ear.
"Crvinsr? Yes of course I have been cry
inn. Mrs. llandall I've done nothing but
cry for a week."
"Mercv unon us." said Mrs. Randall, clo
vatinsr her kid cloved hands, "what is the
matter ? I hope Frank isu't in any sort of
trouble r" . .
"Mv dear." said tho old lady, in a mys
terious whisper, "Frank has been entrap
ped inveigled iuto the most dreadful en
tauglement. Did you ever fancy that he,
the most fastidious aud particular of bu
man beings, could be determined on mar
rvinff a fuctorv cirl ?"
Mrs. Randall uttered an exclamation of
surprise, and at the same moment a party
of Lruests were announced, among whom
was Miss Grace Teller, looking rather uioro
lovely than usual.
. "Well," thought Mrs. Seymour, as her
hostess hurried away to welcome the new
comers. "Will wonders never cease I Grace
Teller at Mrs. Randall's soiree I But I sup
pose it is all on account of Mary Elton's
uncln, the Judge. Ilere comes Mr. Parker
and Cynthia dear me, what a curious mix
ture our American society is ; how they will
be shocked to meet Grace leller.".
Involuntarily she advanced a step or two
to witness the meeting. Mr. Parker looked
nuito na much astonished as she had ex
pected, but somehow it was not just tbe
kind of astonishment on the programme.
"Miss Gruce ? You here I Why when did

"You are acquainted with Miss Teller I"
asked Mrs. Randall, with some surprise.
Quite well ; ia fact I have had the man

"Dear meP ejaculated Mrs. Beymour, turn
ing and sinking down upon divan near
her. "Why, they say that the heiress of
tbe old gentleman who owned the Factor
ville property is the richest girl ia the coun
try." ,
"Grace," said Frank, gravely and almost
sternly, "what does this mean?"
The blue eyes filled with tears as she clung
close to his arm.

t'lftht llelw ecu ia Ulan and a Lion,
Wombwell's menagerie is now at Leeds,
England, and the Yorkshire Post, in giving
an account of it says :--A strange and dan
gerous accident happened when the Messrs.
Cross, naturalists, of Liverpool, undertook
to forward a huge black named Sahara lion
to Scarborough. On its arrival there the
animal was at once taken to the roenagerio.
All went well until it wus attempted to shift
this untamed king of the forest from the
cage in which he Lad been forwarded into
the den built to hold him at the exhibition.
After mauy unsuccessful attempts had been
made to move him out of one cago iuto
the other, it was at lost determined to tele
graph their difficulty, and request the as
sistance of Mr. William Cross, who, at once,
on receipt of the telegram, took a train for
Scarborough.
Upon bis arrival there, another trial was
made, and after a severe struggle that lasted
some hours, the noble brute was at length
successfully aud safely penned. But, strange
to say, whilst Mr. Cross was receiving the
congratulations of the people about him, be
inadvertently laid hold of one of the bats of
the den. In a moment, the huge animal
sprang from his crouching position, and, to
the consternation of all beholders, seized tho
hand of Mr. Cross in his mouth. It is im
possible accurately to describe the scene nt
this junction fear seemed to possess every
one present. Several strangers who bad
been specially invited to witness the shift
ing, maguified tho accident of Mr. Cross in
to un escape of the lion out of his cage ; thus
filled with fear, they rushed out of the me
nagerie in great trepidation. The Hon still
held Mr. Cross fast by the hand, nor could
he be induced to let go his hold, although
tempting juuks of beef and cows' hearts
were thrown into his cage ; but the roost
surprising of all was that, during the whole
of the time each was trying to attract the at
tention of the lion from him, Mr. Cross ap
peared tho least uudisturbed, as, with his
eyes fixed upon his captor, ho seemed to bo
watching ana waiting patiently tor some ex
pected opportunity.
x tuning tue lion determined to retain nis
hold, and tho pain becoming very severe,
Mr. Cross asked one of the keepers to hand
him a small bar of iron he was holding
ready for use. With this Mr. Cross succeed
ed in striking tho brute a t critic blow be
tween the eyes. The enraged animal sprang
back with a snort, tearing tbe fiesh from his
baud, and mutilating ouo ringer so seriously
that at first it was thought amputation was
an absolute necessity, and was recommended;
but Mr. Cross, witu coolness in In in charac
teristic, refused all surgical aid ; he thought
he wus sufficiently cut up already, and,
wrapping his mutilated hand in wet cloths,
walked out of the menagerie as if no acci
dent had happened ta him, and returned as
soon a possible to Liverpool.

This, says HaU'i Journal of Health, may
be safely done in w inter time when the day
is clear, at any hour between sunrise and
sunset, but on cloudy and damp days it is
better to kindle a tire ana tuus create a draft
up the chimney. A bed should always be
made several hours before sundown, before
it has timo to gather the damps of the even
ing. It will refresh us greatly if on waking
up ot a winter 0 night, we get out 01 oeu,
throw all the clothing to the foot and the
next instant throw it back ; this drives all -the
confined .air away from the bedding
without allowing it to get very cold ; in ad
dition the hands should be passed over the
skin of tbe whole body two or three times ;
this operation is accompanied by a degree
of refreshment and a ieeling of purity on
entering the bed Agaiu which more than
pays for the trouble, and it is often a great
sleep promoter, enable a person to fall into
a sound slumber in a few miuutes after
having been tossed restlessly for hours.
Shut your mouth w hen going from a cold
to a hot atmosphere, as well us the reverse ;
this simple operation brings the temperature
of either cold or hot air to thq natural stand
ard before it reaches the lungs, by making it
take the circuit of the head ; w hereus, if the
mouth is kept open, it da&hcs down into the
lungs like a shock. Whether asleep or
awake, we bhould accustom ourselves to keep
the mouth shut ; the advautage in our sleep
ing hours is that we dou't snore; we don't
have the nightmare ; flies, bugs and spiders
dou't crawl down the throat, and we don't
tell tales in our dreams ; the benefits in the
day time are that it induces a more healthful,
deep, full and free action of the luug9, pre
vents innumerable chills and colds, and
saves many a domestic sorrow.
In regulating the temperature of rooms,
there is no fixed standard, but ordinarily we
are comfortable in church, if at the height
of five feet from the floor, in the centre of
the building, Fahrenheit's thermometer
stands at 65 degrees. But in this respect no
man should be the guide for another. Some
require more heat than others, but there is
one rule of universal application a rule
which admits of no exceptions, the world
over, each person should notice what tem
perature keeps him comfortably warm, and
thus be a rule to himself. But when a man
has taken a cold, or is beoome biliious, or if
he stays in doors several days, he requires
more and more heat, and, If under such cir
cumstances he would eat positively nothing
for a day or two and keep on piling np the
wood so as to keep up a continued slight
perspiration the cold would be cut short off,
or the billioutnees would disappear in twenty-four
hours ; in fact, mauy of our aches,
and pains, and ailments, would disappear
with an amazing promptness, if we could
persuade ourselves, when they are first
noticed, to only cease eating, keep warm,
keep quiet, and drink abundantly of any hot
liquid ; but the great misfortune is that nine
persons out of ten prefer to take tome kind
of medicine, however nauseous. They feel
as if they could not spare the time to be
sick and would rather swallow a quart of
the 'most disgusting compound If it only
promises to cure them 'rigot away," with
the result always, that they ara not cured
right away 5 but after dosing themselves for
days and week with" whatever Tom, Dick
or Barry choose y advise, thej flud them
