There are heure when life seema dreary,
'Mid the tumult and the care;
And the heart grows sad and weary
"Building eaailes in the air."
When the sunshine seems the faintest,

And hopes so fond and cherished
Like baubles float away.

They iobe the heart in memories—
Sweet memories of the past.
Select Miscellany.
I was born in Dudleyville, where also
my father and my father's father were
born before me. The first eon of our
family, for many generations, had been
christened Nicholas, and I was honored
with the same uphonious cognomen. On
the male side, my father and I were the
only - ones left to represent the ancient
race. We werehofh as well knoWn in
Dudleyville as the spite of the 4illige
church and, from being so well known,
were bailed, the whole country round,
by the familiar epithet of "Nick Dud
ley," and to save confounding the two.
my father Sae from:tardy tfalfed "Did
Nick."
I believe in my soul this was the cause
of his sending me so early abroad. Be
that as it may, I was equipped, and reg
ularly installed; tVhen I was scarce six
teen, into - Uncle Sara's service, where.
young as I was, I contrived to distin
guish myself for my military daring and
courage, which, I am now convinced, was
nothing but youthful foolishness,
It was during the Texan war I eeriest:l'j
and at the age of twenty-one, I returned
once more to the paternal roof with the
title of Major prefixed to my natee.
It was with no ordinary degree of
self-satisfaction that, with my showy re
gimentals. with my face browned by a
tropical sun, a fierce military moustache,
and m• tall proportions, I paced the deck
of the steamer which was soon to land
me within a. short stage ride of my na
tive town':
My sister Rate, whom I lunged to see,
had, I fancied, grown a tall and .
611 girl, and as she had thrown out some
vague hints in her letter to me, concern
ing some important changes in her life,
which only awaited my presence to Re<
complish,•l !Itched my brain to imagine
the sort of a chap the intended husband
might be.
lly return I had carefully planned in
such a way as to surprise the old gentle
man and Kate. By no possibility were
they expecting me for a full week. 1 bad
learned from Kate that the old home
stead was undergoing repairs, and that
meanwhile the old gentleman had rented
a house in the heart of the flourishing
town.

I knew the old place, and all its sur
roundings so well, however, in spite of
alterations, that I could not be at fault..
I was in the very street at last, and in
front of the house which held my good
father and sister.
As I was about to ascend the steps,
and enter the house legitimately by the
front door, I saw that the dining-room
windows, which opened on the green be
fore the house, were wide open, and the
bright lights within the room shone on
the out-spread table just as the family
had left it after the evening meal.
They must have had company,thought
I, for the table had, evidently, beon laid
for a number of persons, and the mas
sive spoons and shining silver tea-serv
ice lay temptingly open to the hands of
any passing thief.
A brilliant thought flashed on my mind.
A double surprise, thought I, and no
sooner than acted.
Springing, at one bound, through one
of the open windows, I gathered, as
hastily as possible, spoons, and what
ever of the massive, plate I could, 'de
termiLing to make my way up stairs,and
into the drawing-room, before any of my
family saw me, and present my sister
with my own presence, and her silver,at
the same time.
Just as I was about to open the door
of the dining-room, my eye glanced up
on the name engraved upon the . silver
—"Livermore."
I started like a criminal. While it
flashed through me like a shock of light
ning, that my father, though a man of
means, had never manifested any great
'love of silver, and had never owned any
plate except the old-fashioned spoons and
tea-service which bad been handed down
from generation to generation, it also oc
curred to me, for a dead certainty, that
I had waked up the wrong passenger; in
short, that I was in a fix, and decidedly
in the wrong house.
As the truth glanced rapidly through
my mind, I was engaged in replacing the
silver previous to making my exit in the
same way I bad catered.
But, alas for human calculation ! be
fore I had divested my pockets of half
their contents, the doer opened and shut
with a bang, giving me a glimpse of a
servant maid, half terrified out of her
wits.

In The Wrong House.
A. friendly side-door stood invitingly
open. I made my way through it, and
up a private staircase. The next moment
I found myself in.a snug library; adjoin
ing the brilliantly lighted room.
I heard steps - approaching, and, dart
ing behind the shelter of the ample dra
pery which curtained the window, I had
only time to conceal myself, when voices
in the apartment made me aware that I
bad been none too quiok in my opera.
Lions.
After a little I was left alone, and now
I had time and food for reflection. Sup
pose I were caught—the silver actually
in my possession; the proof was convinc
ing—damning; even my father's name,
well and favorably known, could not
shield me. I was well known, too, as a
wild, recihnis blade, and to many, the
probability that I bad added Must- -
breaking to my other lawless accomplish
ments, might be easily supposable.
Determined to put the beet possibld
face on the matter, in case I was caught,
I remained almost breath - kW it my hid
ing place.
Presently, by the Mini of voices, I
could hear that the drawing-room began
to fill.. I grew nervous—restless. I long
ed to rush out in the midst of all, and
acknowledge who I was, and the reason
of my being there under suspicious cir
cumstances. But. the reasons were so
ridiculous that, in spite of all my more
manly feelings, I was constrained to re
main like a guilty wretch in my hiding
place.
At intertfals; groups of visitors enter
ed the library, and then withdrew. At
each intrusion, I felt that my hour bad
come, But somehow my good genius
proved to be in the ascent. No one came
to the window.
The rooms Vegan to' t7iiti I could
plainly distinguish that fact with some
degree of hope in my breast. Again I
heard voices and steps enter the library.
" Before P gd; dear Edith," said a musi
cal voice, lifirdh I recognitied, with a
thrill of joy and pain, as my sister's,
"let me tell you that, in a week, I ex
pect my dear brother. I shall then have
the pleasure of introducing you"—
"Ah l that long-talked-of brother;
tate, I ani'haff in loiiviith him already
from yoUr gloWing description."
"You will be entirely in levewithhim
when oou see and know him. Bee, here
is his last letter; shall I read it ?"
Edith, the little witch, consented, and
then I had the pleasure of bearing the
last scrawl read by my partial' sist:er.--
Ob, how mawkish it. sounded to me; hosi
pointless the wit; how silly the attempt
at poetry.
But Edith praised it when Kate had
ended, and this in a moment reconciled
me to the boyish attempt.
At last the rooms were still, the lights
extinguished, and darkness prevailed.
I was preparing to emerge from my
hiding place, when th'd opening of a
door arrested me. Light steps approach
ed, the curtain wasdrawn, aid themoon
light revealed the form of a' Nantiful
girl, and at thi same time I miati ictitial
ed to her astonished view. With adeir
rable presence of mind she suppressed a
scream.
" Who are you—what are you doing
here ?" she milted hurriedly.
"Are you the person who—are you a
robber? Did you break into—"
" Did I break into your house, you
would ask. Yes, but do not start. lam
no robber, I assure you. Alas I need
your assistance."
I saw that my manner assured her,
and I went on.
"I am the only brother of your friend
Kate Dudley, and as such, ask your com
passion, for I must be right in suppos
ing you are Miss. Edith Lieermore,with
whom Kate has repeatedly made me ac
quainted in her letters."
" I am, indeed, Edith Lisermore,"she
replied, with - unfeigned astonishment;
"and I—"
You would hear how I got here with
these in my pocket," and I pulled out
spoon after spoon, and laid them before
her.
Edith looked more and more perplex
ed, and considerably terrified. But I
soon re-assured her by relating the whole
of my adventure.
She blushed a little when I related the
convereation between her and my sister,
but somehow we talked and talked there
alone until the gray dawn reminded us
that I must go.
Edith, herself, let me out of the door,
but not till I felt somewhat assured that
what she said to, my sister had literally
come true—that she was really more
than half in love with me.
It has been several years einoe then,
but not long enough to make either my
self, or my little wife, Edith, regret my
adventure in the wrong house.
Occasionally, when the train arrives
at a certain station on the Erie Railway,
a nice young man „jumps off and kisses
the beet looking girl at the depot, sup
posing it to be his sister. He apologizes
so nice that the girls are getting so they
look for him regularly. • Some big broth

"On where do you get the red for your

AN ANICDOTZ OP POP3.—One day as
Pope was engaged in translating the
Iliad, he came to a passage which neith
er he nor his assistant could interpret.
A stranger who stood by, in his humble
garb, very modestly suggested that, as
he had some little acquaintance with
Greek, perhaps he could assist them.—
" Try it, try !" said Pope, with the air
of a boy who is encouraging a monkey to
eat red pepr, er, "There is an error in
the print," said the stranger, looking at
the text. " Read as if there was no in
terrogation at the end of the line,and you
have the meaning at once." Pope's as
sistant improved upon this hint,and ren
dered the passage without difficulty.
Pope was chagrined: he could never en
dure to be surpassed inanything. Turn
ing to the stranger he said in a sarcastic
tone, "Will you please tell me what an
interrogation is?" "Why sir," said the
stranger scanning the ill-shaped peat,
"it is a little orooked,oontemptible thing
that asks questions !"
