AFTER THE BATTLE.
I've trod tho slippery path of fame,
I've burned nt honor's atory ;
I've sought to win myself a name,
On battlo fields of glory,;
Wliero brlghttlie bristling bayonets rose,
And blsod flowed free,
I fiercely have encountered foes,
For thee, for thce,-
Dangcr and Death fall on I've dared,
Have seen tho cannon, flashing;
Have rushed with arm for o unlmt. bared,
Wliero sabrca bright wcreclaahlng''.
Then sunk to rest when day had fled,
Beneath a tree i
And when In Bleep's obllyjon dead,
Have dreamed of thoc
How bleat the vblona Home was then
In each bright drcniuahq made mo;
All 1 must they never come again.
Or has my fate betrayed me ?,
Hopeless I wish tballlimt weit mine,
Say wilt thou be t
Tor nil my loudest wishes twlno
Round thee, rou nd ttico.

Glvo mo old aongs though rudo and bold,
Yet sprinkling with tliu purcsljgold,
Snch as were syllabled In flro
When "raro Bon Jonson" swept the lyre;
Or, flung from Shakespeare's boldor hand.
Want vibrating through nil tho land,
And found lu every heart a tono
That seemed an echo of their own.
Glvo mo old books tho tomos Mind
Ha choicest treasures bath enshrined,
Rich with tho thoughts of burled Beers,
Whoso genius glorified this year;
Old books, well thumbed aud velluiu-lHiuud,

Whoso sta Ined nnd nmplo pages hold
A rarer wealth than gcins or gold,
Glvo ma old paths tliiugh few the blooms

And fow tho Hyren-uolestluit keep

With golden gleams from .Ion's lull,
By patrlaichs and prophets trod,
And ltadlug to tliu MouutotGod,
Glvo mo old friends tho tried of yenrs.
Whoso soul Is In their smiles and tears;
Though rnagh of speech and void of art,
Yet frank aud bold aud leal of heart;
With sturdy faith and soul sercno
Scorning tho liollew, false nnd mean;
With open brow and honest oye,
Their patent or nobility.
Then In soma mansion old and grim,
Embowered by woods, whoso twilight dim
Hallows the noonday, let me bldo

With passions hushed in deep repose,
Forget ambition und. Its woes,
In calmness wait till Death enfold
A heart grown weary, worn and old,
THE JURYMAN'S STORY.
IVY JHDaE CLARK.
Wo had been out twenty-four hours,
and stood eleven to one. Tho case was
a very plain one at least wo cloven
thought so.
A murder of peculiar atrocity had
been committed; and though no eye
had witnessed tho deed, circumstances
pointed to tho prisoner's guilt with un
failing certainty.
The recusant juror had stood out from
tlfo first. Ho acknowledged tho cogency
of tho proofs, confessed his inability to
reconcile tho facta wtth tlio defendant's
Iijnocenco, and yet, on every-vote, wont
steadily for acquittal.
nis conduct was inexplicable. It
could not result from n lack of intelli
gence : for, whllo ho spoko but littli1.
his words were well chosen, and
evinced a thorough understanding of
tho case.
Though still In tho prime of manhood,
his locks wero preniatnrcly white, and
his fnco woro a singularly sad and
thoughtful expression.
Ho might bo ono of thoso who enter
tained scruples as to tho right of society
to inflict tho death penalty. Rut no, It
was not that; for, in reply to such n sug
gestion, ho frankly admitted that bru
tal men, like tho vicious brutes they re
semble, must bo controlled through fear,
and that dread of death, tho supremo
terror, Is, in many cases, tho only ade
quate restraint.
At tho prospect of another night of
fruitless imprisonment wo began to
grow liiipatlcnt,andixpostulatcd warm
ly against whatscemcd an unreasonable
captlousncss; and somo not over kind
remarks wero Indulged In- as to tho
impropriety of trifling with un oath
liko that under which wo woro acting.
And yet," tho man answered, as
thouL'h communing with himself rath
er than repelling tho Imputation, "It is
Conscience that hinders my concurrence
lu a verdict approved by my judg
ment." '
"How can that bo V"' queried several
at onco.
'C-onsclenco may not always dare to
follow Judgment."
Rut here sho can know no other
guide."
"I onco would liitvo said tho saino."
" And what has changed your opin
ion?"
"Experience."
Tho speaker's manner was visibly
agitated, and wo waited in silenco
tho explanation which hoscemcu ready
to give.
Mastering his emotion, as if In answer
to our looks of Inquiry, ho continued:
"Twenty years ago I was it young
man just beginning mo. new nau
brighter prospects, aud nono brighter
hopes.
An uUnclmient.uiiutig from childhood,
had ripened with its object. Thcro had
been no verbal declaration und accep
tance of love no formal plighting of
troth : but when I took my departure
to seek a homo in the dtstfUit "West, it
was athlngundorstpod.thatwheni had
found it and put It in order, shi was to
sharoit.
"Life In tho forest, though solitary, Is
not necessarily lonesome,, Tho kind of
society afforded by Naturo, depends
much on ono'a.sclf, An for mo, I lived
moro In tho future than In the present,
and Hope Is un over-cheerful compan
ion. a'At length tho tlmo camo for making
tho final payment on tho homo which I
had bought. It would henceforward bo
my own j ino fow moro months, my

'At tho htnd'omco'whlch. Was somo

George C. Ho too, had coiiioto seek his

"Exacting a promise that' Jio would

way houiQward, while ho turned' back.
"I was nbout rotlrlng to bed on tlio
night of my return When n summons
from without called mp to tho door., A
stranger asked shelter for himself and
his horso for tho night:
"I invited htm in,, Though n stranger,
his fuco seemed not unfamiliar! Ho was
probably ono of tho men I had scon nl
the land-ofilce, a place, at .that time
much frequented.
"Oirerlng him n scat, I went to sco to
his horse. Tho poor animal, as well as
I could sou by the dlmstarllghtseoined
