Tho sighing breeze, the ocean's roar, Tho purling rill, tho organ's power, All stir the soul, but none so deep As tiny tread of littlo feet. When forth wo ru at early morn, To meet tho world and bravo Us scorn, Adowu tho garden walks so neat, Wo sco the prints of littlo feet. At eve, when homeward wo repair, Willi aching limbs nnd brow of care, The voices ring out clear nnd sweet Then comes tho rush ot littlo lect. Tho kulvoi nro losl, tho dishes stiny, The tools aio spirited away; Aud when wo go tho lost to seek, Wo take tho trail of littlo feet. But when tho angel Death has como And called tho llowercts from our home, Opptesslvo silence reigns complete; Wo miss tho sound of little feet, Then tools are safe, no dlshoj slray. No doors go slnmming all tho day ; But O, 'twould glvo us pleasure sweet To henr again thoso noisy feet. Soft night hath como; all aio asleep; Yes, all but me I vigil keep.

I roamed lo-day tho sylvan scenes Wo roamed together years ago.

Since time has you nnd mo eslrangod, I breathed ngiin in the sweet pcifuine That rises from the ilch dark grouud, Where mottled llowers of tiny bloom Their geutlo souls exhale around; But, ah 1 their sweets no more wero drawn With eager preath and alt seemed changed; The fragrance of tho Past Is gone , Since time has you and me cstraugui), I sat beneath tho oak tree grand, On Iho old "Lover's Seat" alone, Ami seemed to feel aFmall,warm baud Creep tenderly wllhlu my owuj But, ah! It thrilled not as of yoie, Slnco flesh for shadow wus exchanged ; The feeling of tho Past Is o'er, S liico Time has you and me estranged. All elothed with peace, I tee ye,u now, Sereuo and soft ns bummer skies; Tho snmo deep smllo still lights thy brow Ami kindly steals from Hps to eyes ; But, ah I for mo Its light Is lied. Its suuny Joy to radness chaugod ; Tho Beauty of the Past Is dead Since you and I are btill estranged. Tho Scornful Nose, 'Tls very true. O maiden fair, You'ro pleasant to tho sfcrht.

Not that the lovely noso could llnd Upon a lovelier face, 'Mid all the flower of womankind, A moio befitting place, But there's a curl upon Its tip. Half comic, half severe. In cool collision with tho Hp That savors of a sneer. So beauty bright, if you would wed, When lovers come to woo, Bewaro the tosslugof tho he.ul, Tho glauco that looks nskow, Men ask for love and not for wit, That scorchos whero It glows, 'Tls heart, not head, you ought to hit; ruturl your scornful uetsu I Tho Unknown Land. 0 laud unknown I Beyond our mortal sight, Wrapt iimnd Willi gloomy shadows of tho night, Our spirits dread, yet long to wing their night, To thy mysterious shores.

Olmid unknown I By the dividing stream We stand aud gaze, and sometimes fondly dream Tho clouds will part aud yield ouo transient gleam Of thy mysterious shores.

" With every now step tho Invading German armies tako towards Paris, tho question about tho ultimate fato of tho queen of modern cities becomes inoro and tnoro momentous. Under theso circumstances It must necessarily bo of somo interest to inqulro into tho histo ry of tho numerous solges it lias sus tained from tho tlmo of Charlcmagno down to our present ago. Tho first at tack on Paris wo find recorded In his tory was mado in A. D. 815, by ono of those bold, northorn pirates who Infes ted, during tho ninth century, all tho European countries, named Regnor, who, sailing up tho river Seine, sur prised tho city, laid selgo to It, entered It, and was finally brought ofr by King Charles tho Bold. " During tho hundred years' struggle for tho crown of Franco between tho houso of IMantagcnet nnd thohousoof Valols, Paris was' successively belea guered threo times, when in 1350, at Polctior.s, tho black Prlnco had defeated and mado prisoner King John thoGood, tho population of Paris and pcasauty of tho surrounding country, making uso of tho helpless condition of their sovereign, roso in rebellion, selzod tho government and placed at their heod ono Stephen Marcel, tho Robesplerro of that age. Indeed, tho proceedings of these wild demagogues very much ro sombled, on n small scale, those which wero enacted at a later period at Ver sailles. At the approach of tho Dauph in with tho army, tho city was hastily placed in a statoof defense, and martial law proclaimed. All attempts of tho Dauphin to tako tho city by assault failed until tho besieged, tired of tho terrorism of Marcel, slow tho despot and opened tho gates to tho Royal Prlnco. In 1350, Edward III., King of England, encamped at Moutroguo, do vastated tho country to tho walls of Paris, but recoiled from before it, and retired to Chnrtres. Ono of tho most interesting at Licks on Paris is perhaps that mado in 1-129 by Jeanne d'Arc, tho Maid of Orleans. After having by Jicr Inspired heroism required tho English to raiso tho siego of Orleans, and hav ing led triumphantly her beloved Charles through tho midst of tho ene my to his coronation nt Rheitns, sho did not think her mission ended, though longing for her quiet homo at Dom Re my, until sho had re-established tho King on tho throuo of his ancestors. AH places on tho march to Paris fell again into tho hands of tho King, and tho fortificationsof St. Denys was carried by storm. Tho attack on tho city,which was dofendod by Count Bedford, was led by Joan herself. But notwithstand ing sho fought with more than her won ted courage, not being supported by tho King, who remained inactive in his position at St. Denys, sho was driv en back and had to withdraw tho army without accomplishing her noblo de sign. " Tho next descent on Paris was mado in UGJ, by tho Count of Charolals, af terward Charles tho Bold, Duke of Bur gundy. Charles had already penetra ted Into tho suburbs of Paris, when Louis XL, fomenting a rising at Liege, a placo nowly conquered by Charles, compelled him to abandon the siege, in order to return to prevent rebellion spreading over his vast dominions. Again, in 1512, tho Emperor Charles V. great grandson of Charles tho Bold and rival of Francis I., took up his line of march with -10,000 German aud Spanish troops toward the French capital, redu cing nil tho fortified places along his routo in tho neighborhood of Paris. Tho peaco of Crosby, offered by King Francis I., saved tho capital from a siege, and probably from a surrender. After tho St. Bartholomew massacro, and during tho intestitio wars between the Holy Leagtio and tho Huguonots, Paris sustained several sieges. Tho Duko of Gulso, tho chief of tho noly League, having been assassinated nt Blols In a most dastardly manner, by ordor of King Henry III., tho leaguers wero only roused by this atrocious erlino to moro vigorous massacres. They assembled a parliament, deposed tho king, and created tho Duko of Mayence, brother of tho murdered Guise, lieu tenant-governorof tho king dom. Despised and forsaken, Henry III., saw no other way to safety" open to him thau au alliance with Henry of Navarre. Thoy. laid slego to Paris, and threatened to reduce tho faithless (own ton heap of ruins, when tho knlfo of a fanatical monk, Jacques Clement, put nn end to tho Hfo of nenry III., at St. Cloud, on tho 1st day of August, 1580. After this Henry IV., tried for a long tlmo to get possession of his Inhorltanco by tho sword. Ho laid slego to Paris lu tho year 1590, aud caused tho citizens to feel all tho horrors of f.uiilno ; but ho at last becaino convinced that ho could not gain pcaceablo possession of tho French throno by battles and victo ries. Ho flrought tho crown of Franco was worth a mass antl wont over to tho Catholic church. Paris now threw open Us gatos nud welcomed tho brlnger of peace with loud acclamation. Franco was now under tho lelgn of tho Bour bons, fast becoming tho first power In Europe, and during tho following two centuries Paris saw no enemy bcforolts gates.

In tho midst of change, improvement and reform, quite a numberof question able old notions continuo to bo followed even now, when tho very erroneous character of somo of them lias been generally acknowledged. Of this char acter is tho rigid adhcrenco of drivers of horses to that useless and injurious rulo of old times, tho check-rein. Its use with draft horses Is positively cru el. Wheu a horso Is drawing a heavy load, and particu'arly up hill, ho needs tho utmost rccelotn of lungs ami wind and this ho can nover havo with a tight check-rein.' That tho check-rein nro- vcnls a horso from stumbling is moro than doubtful ; on tho contrary, by ele vating his eyes, it provents him from seeing clearly whero to placo his foot. When a horso does stumblo, ho is far less likely to go down wlten his head is left frco. In England, whero thoy nro far ahead of us in everything pertain Ing to horses, tho check-rein has been abolished ; tho last surrender being that of tho artillery nnd commlssarnit trains of tho British army, tho change having been mado by Sir Geoigo Bur- goyno, tho Commander lu Chief, and ho testifies to tho beneficial effects at tending it. In Now York City many of tho finest equipages aro driven with out tho check-rein, and a few humane peoplo havo also thrown It out of uso hero. The old-fashioned "blinkers," or blind halters, nro also useless, if not positively injurious, by rubbing tho lids of tho horses' eyes j and many ex perienced horsemen long ago camo to tho conclusion that horses aro moro ea sily alarmed at what they hear aud do not sec, becauso Intelligent animals, If they can fully seo tho objects, which when unseen or Imperfectly seen, tend to frighten them, they aro moro readily calmed.

Thcro ho discovered that wo retain thoso parts of ourselves, nml thoso only, which wo havo assid uously used here. Curious was tho spectaclo presented lo his wondering sight. Ho saw hundreds of hungry- looking cars. They wero forovcr con gregatlng and hurrying hither and thither. IIo was informed that ou earth theso had dono tho hearing of church inu;!cand church sermons j had culti vated tho listening faculty, and noth ing else, so that they wero now cars and nothing moro. IIo noticed big stomachs lying about contentedly un der fences and trees, and was told that theso wero persons who had chiefly U3ed their gastronomic powers who had assiduously guzzled at saloons, and gormandized at restaurants. Ho bo camo interested in somo largo dolls, with complexions llko wax dolls, too, that appeared to movo their eyelids languidly, and sometimes to gape. These, ho learned, wero what remained of ladles who had cultivated only good looks. On inquiry for a popular preach- or, ho was conducted to a placo full of ears, whero a lively skeleton, without a vest I go of heart or brain, was still gesticulating Impressively.

Ho was rea sonably successful, but felt In need of n wife, nnd wroto to tho Board requesting them to send lilm ono from America. Tho Rov. Dr. Plttman, then Secretary of tho Board, being a man of very fino feelings, wroto to Brother Mnclay that It was a very dcllcato and difficult mat ter to solcct a wife for another man, nnd advised him to defer marriago until "a moro convenient season," when ho might bo permitted to return to his na tivo land nnd mnko a choice- of ono of 111 fair and worthy daughters. Tho Rov. Dr. Kidder, a member of tho Board, had moro boldness, however, nnd set about tho work of wife-selecting with it zeal worthy of tho most ardent lover. Ho directed his attention particularly to.rtMlss Sperry of Brooklyn, N. Y., then on n visit to Newark, N. J., whom ho know to bo every way worthy tho confidence and lovo of nny man, but moro especially or tt Christian minister, beluga lady of piety and culluro; but ho was somowhat doubtful whether sho possessed tho self-sacrificing spirit of a missionary to leave her relatives and friends nnd all she held dear, and travel thousands of miles to a land of strafl gers, whero sho was not acquainted with a living soul, not oven tho man who in this very strango manner hart asked her to becomo his wifo. After tho first surprise, tho lady asked tlmo to consider, tho result of which was ac ceptance, and sho set about preparing for tho long journey. Mr. Mnclay was written tho state of tho case thcro was no telegraph in those days and it may bo just at this time ho may havo had somo misgivings of ills modo of action. Hero was a lady coming thousands of miles to marry him, whom ho had never seen, with whoso disposition or temperament ho had no knowledge, und all ho had to rely upon was tho recommendation of a brother minister 1 Thcro is not a man In a thousand who would bo satisfied with such a choice. But then sho was pious and self-sacrificing ohl how self was completely thrown in tho shado by her acceptance of such nn oiler und her going upon such it mission. This wus tho comfort, tho consolation, und tho harbluger of lovo aud huppiuess. Aud how was it with tho young la dy? Was sho not equally exercised about her position? Did sho not fre quently, during that long and hazard ous Journey, question hcnelf as to her prudenco lu accepting tho proposal of marriago iu such u second-haud way ? Sho never saw tho man that was to bo her husband j sho ouly knew him by rcpuluUoti ; sho might bo unattractive lo hini, and ho repulsivo to her, when they met for tho first time. At length sho arrived at her dcatina' tion in China, and tho marriago took place at the houso of a brother mission ary, and ever slnco thoy havo not only lived happily together, but havo been eminently successful in their mission ary work.
