There are meetings of happy lovers All over the sweet earth to-night, lied lips that are blistered with kisses, Byes dimmed In tears ot delight. But where are Uie Hps, warm and tender, That my lips are yearning to kiss ? And where are tho dark eyes whoso glances Woild thrill me with trembling of bliss: Alas, my beloved I why Is It Fate crosses and bothers us I bus So kind and so gentle with others, So harsh and so cruel to us 7 Why Is It that we. ot all lovers, Must long for each other In vain Must lain for Lo-,0'8 bliss, andforevcr Be fed wltu the emptiest pain t Aro the angels afraid that our loving Will bring down their heaven to our feet, That they cross th-lr white pinions between ns, Forbidding us ever to meet t To-night, while wo dream (are you dreaming!) o, come to me, dearest, and see How In sleep we will cheat and elude them Who aro keeping you parted from me t Come close and kneel down where I slumber In dreams none can wrest us apart ; Let the lire and dew of your kisses Melt down through my lips to my heart, Till 1 swoon with the Joy of your presence. Dumb rapture my bouI overpowers. And the curious angels discover How tamo Is their heaven beside ours 7 Select Story. UACKWOODSMAVS STORY. 1 ten you it's an awiui tblng to go through,' satd Tom Mopson 'a man's last night on earth, when he knows he's got to be hung In the mornin . 'Why, wore you ever In that fix?' in quired one of the listeners. 'If you'd like to hear it, answered Tom, 'I'll tell you the story. lly general Invitation he proceeded, first replacing his quid with a fresh one. It's now more'n thirty years.' said Tom, 'since I took a notion to go and settle in the backwoods,' 'There wan't another cabin within live miles of mine, which made it n little lone some whiles ; but it's n good thing to be out o'reach 0' bad company, and I always liked an independent life so on the whole, I got along quite comfortable. 'One night, I was about putting out the ight, after saying my prayers, afore goin' to bed, when thcro came a quick knock at the door. I hurried to open II, when a man stag gered in. His look was wild and his lace pale. "Help 1 help !' he gasped ; 'I'm afraid I've got my death wound 1' 'I caught him in my arms and half-carried him to bed. "It's here,' he said, when I bad laid him down, placin' his band on his breast. 'Quick as I could I tore open his clothes, and close to where I could see his heart beatlu' was a round red mark, with a slow stream of blood trinkling from it. 'I d aeen bullet wounds afore, and know'd at once what was the matter. 'I feet I'm dyln',' said the stranger, after lying awhile with his eyes shut. 'I hope not,' said I, 'I'd go for a doctor. but there's none higher than ten miles.' 'Twouldn't be no use,' says he. 'No doc tor could get at where the trouble is. I'm filling up with blood inside, and it'll soon choke me.' 'I know'd what he meant. He was shot in the chest and was Weeding inwardly. 'There is one thing I want you to do,' says he, 'on your word of honor toadying man,' 'What is it I' says I. 'Will you give me your word to do It V says be. 'I will,' says I, 'if it's a thing an honest man may 1)0,' 'I wouldn't ask you to do nothing else,' says he 'not in my last moments. I've got my death from one I've always loved dearly, Should he be discovered and punished for his crime, it would disgraco a name which I prize more than life. No one seeu mo come here. WbenTm dead bury me lu some se cret spot antLtay nothln', and then nobody will ever know my fate but you and the man whose conscience will be bis own punish ment.' 'I looked down in the pale face turned up to mine. There was somethin' so beeeecbin' in it, that I hadn't the heart to say 'no.' I took his band and pressed it it was fast growin' cold,' ' 'I promise,' Baid I. 'lie lay quiet a spell then took away his hand, and from an inside pocket took out a thick wallet.' 'Take this it is yours,' he said, puttin' it in my hand 'there's no one else now would wish to have it.' 'I pushed it back, but be said : 'Keep It It's my last wish.' 'Then bis ejes turned glassy. I drrpped the, pocket book, and catcbin' him in my arms raised up his head. He gave ouo r two long breaths, and sank back dead, 'I laid him down gently, folded his arms across his breast, closed bis eyes, and cover ed his lace with the sheet. 'I'd been too long out there on the border to fear bein' alone with a dead man ; and of any possible consequences to myself I was too confused then to think. Afore I know'd, daylight was suramin' iu at the window. 'I must keep my word,' said I ; and I got up and went out and got my spade. Down near by my cabin was a shady nook wlicie the wild grape vines hatt giowed up over the trees, makin' a snrtot nat'ral arbor. 'There's where I'll lay him,' says I ; and I went to work and dug a grave at a spot where the vines hung down like weepirt' wilier. Then I want back to the house ami windin' the body in my best ,shcet, carried it in my arms, and laid it in the grave. 'Earth to earth and dust to dust,' says V be lure shovelin' in the clay. 'When I'd finished, and had scraped back the dead leaves over the grave bo's to hide the spot, and was just tnrnin' away, who should step out afore me but Jess linker, 'Ilev ynu been diggin' giusang, neighbor?'

'Them sixty days passed mighty tedious. Every ono of 'em was spun out with suffer- in'. Hold your hand In tbe fire a minnit, and I guess you'll think it's a full hour. 'To add to it all, Parson Piget kept teazeu' of me to confess. He said he could offe- me no hope onless I did.

I felt sorry afterwards for bein' so sharp with Pig et, for be was a good man, and I have no doubt meant right. 'Then come my last night I'd been long wishin' that all was over ; but that night somehow the horror of my situation come before me more distinct thau ever before.

The common practice amonr farmers is to make a general clearing of tbe yard and barn cellars once a year, either in the spring or fall.
