TIIK IIKIIIWAY COW.
Tho hue of licr lildo was dusky brown
Her body was leau and her neck was slim,
Ono horn tutned up nnd tho Oilier turned down,
Nlie was keen of vhden nnd long of limb ;
Willi a Roman no-.o nnd a (hurt stump tell,
And rib llku tho hoopi of n homu-tnadj pall.
Many n mirk did her body bear i
Sho had been a target for all things known t
On many a fear tho dusky hair
would grow no inoru where It oneo had
grown i
Many a passionate, parting shot
Had left upon licr a lasting spot.
Many and many a well-alined stono,
Many a brickbat ef goodly sle,
And many u cud gel swlllly lluown,
Had brought thu tears to her loving eyes i
Or had bounded off from hir bony oaek,
with a nolio llk'i tho wmid of .i tillu crack,
Many n dav had she parsed In the pound
l'or heliilng heisolt to her neighbor's corn :
Many a cowardly cur and hound
Hud been Iratistliid on licr orumpled horn !
Many a teapot utid old tin pall
Had the (armor bo) tied to her time-worn tr.ll.
Old Deacon Uru) was a pious man.
Though sometimes tempted to bo rrofa&e.
Wheu tnahy a weary inllo l.o ran
To dilvo her out of hl.i growing grain.
Sharp weru tho pranks stio used to play
To get her nil and to get nwny.
Mm? know when the Deacon went to town j
alio wisely watched htm when ho wont by;
Ho never passed her without a frown
And au cwi glance from each augry eye:
Ho would crack his whip lu a suily way
And drlo along In hU "ouc-Lorte sliay."
Than ut his homestead the loved to call,
Lifting hlo bars with er.'innlelliorn:
Nimbly sealing his gaulen wall,
Helping hcinelf to his standing corn:
Bating lit j cabbage, uno by enc,
Iiur.ylus homo when her work was done,
llli human pabslous wero quick to rise.
And binding forth w 1th a savago cry,
Willi fury blalng from both his ejoj,
As lightnings llikli In s ta mor kky,
Redder nnd redder his faco would grow,
And niter tho creature he would go.
Over the garden, round and round,
Breaking his pear and apple trees.
Tramping Ills melons Into the ground,
overturning his hlvca of bees i
Leaving him angry aud badly stung,
Wishing tho old cow's neck was wrung.
Thu mosses grew on tho garden wall ;
The j ears went by with their work nnd play ;
Tho boys of tho village grew strong and tall,
And tho gray-lialeul farmers passed away,
ono by ono, as tho led leaes fall,
But the highway cow ou lived them all.

A JEALOUS HUSBAND.
ITranslaled fiom (tic Frsncli by Jtromo A
Hart, in San Franeifcn Argonaut, Jutiu 1881.
It was the nay bclorc the shootuif
season began. Hunters were pouring
out from l'aris in all directions. Two
might havo been seen leisurely proceed
ing toward tuo beeaux station, but com
ing from different directions. Both wero
accoutieil elegantly lrom jaunty cap to
leathern gaiters ; both carried a liliit gun
ind handsome, game bag ; both remark
ed with satisfaction tho effect their cos
tumes produced on tho female heart ; in
short, both wero 1 ansians aud hunters
Jjut one was old and tlic other was
vouug. Full sixty years must have been
needed to gri.zlo the locks of the ono
but twenty three had passed over the
others head.
Tho elder reached the station a few
moments before tho other. Ho entered
an empty compartment, but scarcely had
ho done so when the door opened, and
tho younger hunter entered. They
stared at each other for a moment, but it
was the elder who spoke hrst.
"illy dear Ijoismbert, I am delighted
to seo you, ho said, prcssui'; the other i
hand with simulated warmth.
"And I, loo, Prcthibaiit," returned the
young man, "am enchanted. What is it
Thiiiyrumiuy says now? 'Thrice blessed
is
"Perhaps you mean, 'Thrico blessed
is't to meet a friendly face," replied tho
other.
"Yes, that's it. Who was tho fellow
that said it, now? It was it was "
"Laniartiuo T asked the other, dryly.
"Ah, yes, that's tho man Lamartinc.
Strange I could not think of it."
"Very, replied 1'ietliibatit. "liut now
I think of it, Do Musset was the author
of tho line."
"Yes, so ho was," replied the other,col
oring; "lie s ono ot my tavonto authors,
you knov;.
Outwardly l'rethibaut replied with a
grunt. Inwardly ho said : "Tho sanioas
ever. What an ass tho fellow is 1"
On tho other hand, lioiscibert bit his
lip, and muttered : "Confound tho old
fool i as pedantio as over."
Theso two gentleman wero about to
mako a reasonably long railway journey
together.
Alter a lengthy silence, Pretlnbaut
began :
'1 seo you aro in hunting rig. Might
I ask whero you are bound ?"
"lcs; J. m (joint; to veirieres. Juno
shooting at that Chateau."
"What I lias Vautnron invited
l'rethibaut interrupted, but suddenly
stopped.
"1 es. VaiiKiron lias asked mo to como
down to Verrieres aud open tho shooting
season wan mm. And you whero nro
you going, Prcthibautt"
"To verricrcB.
"What you also?" HoisgiberfH tone
expressed astonishment, but certainly
not pleasure.
"Oh,yes. For ten years I havo open
ed tho season there. It wouldn't do for
mo to miss one."
"How fortunate wo chanced te meetl"
said 15oisgibert,in n tono as destitute of
emotion nsis tho creak of a dooi.
"It was indeed a happy chance," re
plied l'rethibaut, witli tho inflection of a
innn who bids his creditor como to-morrow.
And wliilo their lips distilled honeyed
words they wero full of bitterness within.
Pretliibaut's retlections wero something
like this:
"How in tho fiend's naniocould VniiK-
irou bo ho idiotic as to invito this bo
curled popinjay to his house ? I did not
think linn so stupid so husband like, so
to speak as that. When a man of

move, but.l'rethibnut would invariably
ask, with much kindness, "Are you not
well this evening, sir ?" so lio was forced
to remain.
Of nil the merry crowd, Prcthibaiit

For reply l'rethibaut favored his

Kiver.i of Molten Lava.
Private advices from the Sandwich
Islands report that tho famous volcano,
Mauna J.oa, is still in cruptiou, and has
neen continuously so since tho early part
of October. The inhabitants sav that tbo
present eruption exceeds in grandeur,
extent and activity any that they can re-
mctnuer, or ot which there is any record,
Tho American residents say thattlio spec
tacle is magnificent, and well worth a
voyago thither. The piineiple crater,
some fli.UUU teel long and 9.000 to
10,000 feet wide, is constantly belching
forth smoke, steam and llames, and oc-
casionally throws up vast rocks, wliilo
the lava pours down thu sides of the
inonntain,nearly M,000 feet high in broad
streams. A letter received some time
ago lrom Honolulu said: "lor some
months tho people of the island of Ha
waii havo been greatly excited by the
eruption of tho volcano Mauna Loa which
tar oxeeeds any former outbreak of that
celebrated mountain of tire. The crup-
t.ou began early in thu evening on tho
rth ot October, a lew miles noilh ot the
summit crater, and Mowed rapidly down
to the plateau lying between lea and
tho Mauna J.oa. ft formed two branch
es, ono running toward thu old crater of
lvilauea, and the other toward the east.
On being lirst observed, it was seen that
the great stream of liquid firo was
making its way toward Kea. liut early
on Saturday morning, somu twelve hours
alter the outbreak, it was noticed that a
second How appealed, and was rapidly
running in tho direction of the beautiful
town of Ililo. Immediately there was
tho utmost nlnrm, and for a time tlicro
was every fear that tho place was des
lined to bo overwhelmed. But before
uiu sireiiu iiatt reaciien nan me distance
to a deep Swood, which stands in the
wuv, it siiil(lenly,and without any appar
ent reason, turned abruptly to the north
ward. So the llow continued until Wed-
neMliiy, llo-ober Kith, when the two
st reams ran beside each other for a con.
siderablo distance, presenting one nf the
grandest sights which could possibly be
witnessed. From both livers of red hot
matter there ascended dene columns of
steam and smoke, and these, as they
( went upward and united for a time,
formed nn arch-liko avenue, through
which there could for miles bo seen the
dull glare of tho boiling and bubbling
mass which steadily moved on its way,
Suddenly, here and there, great cones
would bo thrown up, and again streams
ot lava, as it unable to hud a vent in
nny other duection, were forced upward
in columns to tho height of scores of
feet. For moro than thirty miles from
the outlet tho liquid firo rolled on. tho
width of the streams being from ono
hundred to two hundred yards, and their
deptli varying from six and eight to
twenty and thirty feet, according to tho
nature ot tho ground over which they
mane their way. in places, too, tl eir
front edgo rose ton height of thirty feet,
presenting tho appearance ot an ad
vanced wnu oi nro. from tins mass
great blocks of matter continually crum
Died and iiroko on, inning with a dull
crash which cannot bo described. As
lias been intimated, if tho lava continues
to (low in tho direction which it has now
tnken, there will be hardly any danger
of its doing any damage to Ililo. Hun
ning as it doet, it would have to fill up
tuo great, vauey oi run uio and Waliu
ku swamps beforo reaching the neigh
Dornooii oi uio town. Mill thero is a
danger lhat a stream may strike and
follow tho course of tho "llow" of lBS-
fiG, which lasted thirteen months, and
sent tho burning lava over an nrea esti
mated at three hundred siiuaro miles.
If it should tako this course it would in
all probability go to and beyond Ililo.
onii, it is at present iwcntv-ono nines
from that place, and tho prospect is that
i.io town will escape, llolealoh, on tho
contrary, is in tho fi-entest. il.'iiwrni- lint
......... .f ... ... P . .
witiio mere is in any event moro than a
probability that much fixed property
will bo lost, thero is but littlo danger of
loss ot lifo. Tho iiow of lava is so slow
and regular that it can easily bo avoided
and nil movnbles of value taken out of
us course.
