Fraught with a deepor tone of love. And wild affection's fire. To which so much of cherished thought. So much ot love was Riven, As to those words which sweetly tell O) Mother, Homo and Heaven Others are words of joy and woo. That strangely sway the heart. And low within Its treasured depths Their thrilling echoes start ; Vet there's no o'her power by which Its founts so deep are riven As by those ijentle words which speak Of JI other. Home anil Heaven, (ro 'mid the ocean's briny spray. Where toweriug billows rise. And wave on wave leaps proudly up With thnnderinys to the skies. And ask the sailor In his bark O'er those wild waters driven. What nerves his soul ; he'll thee thoughts tell Of Mother, Home and Heaven. Jo ask the lonely prisoner. While drooplnir in his cell. What were the treasured words which olt With winning influence fell T'pon bis wayward soul, which lotiu With sin and care had striven ? He'll whisper, "Oh those swectst words. My Mother, Heme and Heaven." t ,h, yes, there's triable In those names To nerve In trial's hour. And to the soul bowed down with sin They come with holiest power; And there Is naught on earth which will The wild affections leaven As those sweet words which tell the heart Of Mother, Hoinc and Heaven.

It is tlie yt-ar 103, the day before Christ- i 1 mas, and the location is Brandy station, Va. j ; A hiijli wind rushes amain tlnouojli the tree- j 1 tops with a voice-drowning roar where our ! division lay encamped in the ede of the ! j woods. j There was something uncommon afoot that I i day in the camp ot the white diamonds. War- i j worn veterans in faded uniforms, who had sineilcd the battle-cloud under MeClellan on the famed Peninsula, were .standing around ' ; in croups, engaged in earnest debate, deeid- ; ing for themselves whether or not to brave j tb.e chances of battle for three more loner, lone years of camp, and march, and conflict. ' j Camp in winter on the snow-clad hillside, ; ' dotted thickly wiLli the little dog-tent-covered : ' huts of the cheery private cheery even amid : 1 dreary snows, and wintry blasts, and camp : ; privations. ?.Iarehing often to battle thro' ( the thick mud and misty woods, while the , i thunderings of the cannonade up ahead made ; , the very earth to quake and the air to shiver. : j Ilattle where the intervening thicket hid the ' wily foenian, whose presence was known by ; : the invisible volleys of hissing bullets only, j and where the yielding swaiup afforded a : ; ready sepulchre for the fallen rifleman. j Night advances of the cavalry and infantry : i into the inky depths of mist-shrouded forests till the advance cruard is halted by the sharp ! volley of the hidden picket, llarrassing re- j ! treats where the startled and weary sleeper i is suddenly roused by the fearful thunders , j of the near battle all around. These sun- j j browned men in faded bluejackets had ex- ; perienced all this, and the retrospect was j ; prettv rugged to scan. Yet, for all this, their ! 1 decision was not long delayed ; and soon they j came rolling up to the Colonel's tent in thick i surges, ready to record their names and plight ! their vows to stand by their country amid ' the smoke of battle for another three years. J iiiewntersioiMinacK lor awnue ana view- , ed the scene as the hundreds of stalwart, j bearded and battle-worn soldiers filled UP ! the new ranks : but being short of stature, rather delicate, and rot much of a hero with al, be hesitated for some time to follow in their footsteps. At length, however, the mental die was cast, and another individual was bound into the grand struggle for three years, or during the war. ' That evening we bade good-bye to camp I and took the cars for home on a thirty-days ' furlough. There was a great cheering and , hullabaloo as we started ofT ; anil I reinenv ' ber that Jemmy Peterson tiied hard to get a ; friendly rough-aiid-tunible out of me before I got into the cars, but I slipped through his , clutches, and evaded pursuit. That night was a very cold one so cold, indeed, that ; when we pot to the station at Alexandria we j were very glad to get in and crowd around j the glowing heater. More than one overcoat 1 was badly singed by a '.oo close proximity mine among the number, and "thereby hangs I a tale" other than an overcoat tail. We remained not long in the grand city of i laws and "magnificent distances" after reach- , ing there, but were soon whirling over the ; iron highway, 'mid the darkness of night, on ! toward the city of Penn. Some time after ! midnight we woke up and found ourselves i in the lamp-marshaled streets of the great i river-environed mart al! quiet and sle- ping, ! save now and then the lonely echo of some ! wandering footsteps on the resounding pave- ments. I had not forgotten the locality of my friends ; and the soldier-citizen, who had i passed through the sulphury war-clouds of the many-battled Peninsula was soon in the ,1-1,, ji, t j ' ' v .....i v, v . ...u of lialf-drowsy friends, just aroused from their slumbers. I remained iu the Quaker City a few t.ays, attending social gatherings, prayei-meef.ngs, lectures, etc., much to the edification and pride of my friends and acquaintances, who wi-re somewhat new-fangled at the idea of having a real live soldier, fresh from the, scenes of war, in their midst. I had other friends in Western Pennsylvania, and again, on a dark, frosty night in January, found myself surrounded with blue jackets in the front car of a western-bound train. After we had been about two hours or so on the way,a man in citizen's dress came and sat in the same seat with me, and as I had been handling r.bout a well-stuffed wallet of greenbacks I conjectured he might have de signs on the same, for his appearance was not prepossessing. This circumstance put a new notion into my head a notion which I had never on any former occasion had the least idea of putting in practice. My plan was to get rid of my unwelcome companion by taking a berth in a sleeping-car ; and I was soon snugly ensconced in the top tier, up against the roof of the car, sleeping as soundly a Morpheus on a bed of poppies. I ba? a knack of alecpirif on biylt places. having on one occasion slept on tlie top of a rail fence, the stakes bcins; filled p with extra rails so as to present a flat surface for a bed. This happened in the early morning, among the small hours, on the 15th of August, 18t2,iwhile Joe Hooker was advancing to reconnoitre the "Johnnies" at Malvern Hill, the sleeping of course being done during a halt of the column. But to return to my railroad trip. I slept all night like Kip Van Winkle, or the re nowned Seven Sleepers, and awoke betimes In the frosty morning, just as the wintry twilight beean to dawn over the snow-hid landscape. I soon clambered down from my high nest, and had my valise and overcoat ready to go forward into the front car again, when I bethought nie of my wallet of green backs. I soon ascertained the fact that the wallet was non eft in regard to my pocket, and I therefore lost no time in making search foi the same. It occurred to me that a small article might fall down out of the upper tier, through a space between the side 'of the car and the bed ; and, sure enough, there lay the wallet behind the next man below. Intact, safe and sound. All this caused a short f- lay ; and a most fortunate delay it prcved for me. The wallet secured and safe, I started again for the door of the sleeper, and had given the knob a twist to open the same, when bump, bump, bump went the car over the ties, and some one called out in ouiek. sharp tones to seize Isold of something and hold on for dear life. The suggestion was a good one, and I seized the back of a seat with a firm grip and held on with vice-like ; tenacity. We were not kept long ln suspense I as to the course of events, for the car lay over on its side as if tired with its long trip, i and then shot unwards at an anule of about ! thirty-five degrees, finally coming to a stand- i vtiM witb nonnio cr,v i,r,,i h. n.t j things generally, in a confused jumble. Tliere w as no noise wlirn the car went over utter siienee seemed to reicn for a short space and after a while we heard a confused noise of voices outside. The way the car lav, the side being the extemporized lioor, the windows lay under our feet, and a ouick thoucrht struck me to break through the glass and jninp to the ground below. I will here explain the posi tion of the train. The front axle of the ten der had snapped ofT, some say from the ef fects of the frost, but that could hardly be, as the axles would be heated by friction. Hut. however it came about, tb.e axle snap ped off just as we readied the end of a bridge across the Juniata, and the two "front cars ran down the bank and partly into the river, smashing themselves and maiming their in mates as they went One end of the sleeper mounted the ruins of the two front cars, leaving quite a space between it and the ground. As I jumped down through the broken window and joined"a group of per sons standing near, I.noticed the fire break ing out in the ruins from the overturning stoves. Every instant gave strength to the flames, and what had to be done could not be long delayed. I soon recollected that I had forgotten my valise in the confusion, so I crept back in the car and secured it. The tire was now raging in earnest, so I ji lined the paity who were rescuing the pas sengers from the wreck.' We dragged two old ladies from the middle car, stupefied with hurts and fright, and we kept on in the good work till we had lain thirty killed and wounded side by side. The conductor was among the wounded, and, after he had come to himself a little, I recollect hitn standing there w ith the blood streaming over his face, calling out in a stentorian voice. ' Stop the train ! stop the train '." Having a fine silk handkerchief in in? pocket I bound up his wounded head therewith, and that was the last I saw of him, for I started in immediate ly to help save the U. S. Mail, which was be ing burned up by the bagful. Meantime the flames from the wreck had.eommunicated to the end of the bridge, and fiery tongues r(iarPlJ arul i,.ared tiicU into the air. The niail car i,ai,,,ened to lie almost under the blazing bridge, and it was no holiday task to stem the heat of the coiitlagration. The ! scene bore a striking resemblance to a battie I field, inasmuch as groups of wounded men ; in .blue clothes lay around writhing and j groaning in agony. 1 The engine had broken loose from the train ; and steamed away across the bridge, leaving ; the wreck of humanity in the debris of the "smash-up." Pretty soon another train i backed up and took on the passengers w ho : were able to move forward, and all went i ahead as if nothing uncommon had happen ed. We stopped at the next town on the : loute, where we were quite an object of cu ! riosity to the good people, who had a desire I to see folks just emerging from such perils and flames. One urchin seeing my burnt overcoat cried out ,in vociferous eagerness : "O, look at that one ! his coat tail is nea:ly burnt oil" " As 1 bad been an actor in that horrible night scene of Chaneellorsviile, amid the flaming forest and clashing trees, such epi sodes as these were little tome buttameness. I was young at the time, and my spirits were too elastic to be depressed by anything short of annihilation ; still there was something extraordinary about my scatheless escape which should not be overlooked. To reca pitulate : 1 was in the front car with the other furloughed soldiers the car from which hardly one escaped. Then an incident occurred w hich induced nietoseek the sleeping-car, in the rear of the train ; again, sleep ing all the night, and getting uo just in time to escape being thrown from the top berth on to the floor by the oversetting of the car ; the delay consequent on the search for my wallet ; the car oversetting as I had my hand on the knob ot the door on my way out into the front car again. Now, this train ot circumstances; was set agoing by the individual who sat down be side me in the car, and it all resulted in my escape from the fate which seemed to be in store for :ne. I think all suh occurrences should be re coided, for they furnish blazes by the way in the course of providence. A. D. II. The Way to Do It. "How shall We treat the boys?" asks a writer in an educa tional magazine. Oh, don't you worry about that. Just you call them ur and ask them what they'll take, and they will render their decisions a great deal more promptly and more to the general satisfaction than you could do. Don't let that keep you back a minute.

At the foot of the Boston mountain in Searcy county, Ark., dwells a man named j Mason. He Is over eighty years old, and his j tall figure, white hair and patriarchal air j give him an indescribable appearance. His j house Is a rough but comfortable log cabin, and the few acres around it afford ample sub- l sistence. An excellent marksman, lie has I never abandoned the use of his trusty rifle, i while the numerous il"pr nnd hoar ttint within and without the "cabin bear ample testimony of skill and success. cess. With the exception of his wife he lives en tirely alone. But his life has not always been thus desolate. Many years ago three chil dren brightened his humble home, two boys, John and David, and one daughter, Lizzie, who was the pride of the old man's heart and the light of his rude cabin. The sons were ligK-hearted boys, given to diink somewhat, but liked by everybody, while Lizzie was a rare, wild wood blossom. Her soft blue eyes and flaxen hair played sad havoc with the hearts of the younger portion of the opposite sex in all that section, and many sought her hand in marriage, the fortunate suitor being I a young man named cnanes .McKinley, j rather dissipated, not worth a dollar, yet I 1'andsome, a very forest Appollo in short, i iust 'ie tina ,,f a n'al1 to win a young girl's ! heart. The Mason family were anything but pleased with her choice, and spared no effort to break off the attachment the lovers had for each other. Lizzie, however, could not he n'vJ- Entreaties and threats were alike unavailing. The former gave her courage to plead for Charlie ; the latter nide her cling the closer to him. Finding all other effort- I usp'''s. the Masons resorted to more violent i measures. John Mason met Charles McKin- i lev one day in tho forest and a desperate fight ensued, in which both were badly cut and bruised, but in which John was decided ly worsted. This stirred up additional bit terness and for a time threatened to draw the majority of the surrounding families into the quarrel and disturb the peace of the i "cignuoriioou. Lizzie sought to pour oil on me iiouuieu water, ana ner tieimi vents ; melted the hardened natures that evil pas ', sions had filled with wrath. There was a , I reconciliation between her lover and brother, ! and there was general rejoicing in conse ' quence, when an event occurred which ' changed amity into distrust and suspicion, i The event was no lesstban the sudden and , mysterious disappearance of Charles McKin- : ; ley. He was last seen alive alone in the I forest beyond the mountains, and was on the trail of a herd of deer. The most rigid search failed to discover iiirn or any trace of his whereabouts. He had diopped out of sight and life as if the earth had opened and swal ; lo-ed him up. All sorts of stories were rile. ' One said he was murdered, another that he ' had run away, still another that hi; was pur posely hilling himself and would suddenly I return. Hut as time went on and he neither came nor was heard of, the suspicion that he had met with foul play gained ground ; rapidly, growing into certainty in the niind.s ' ' of manv persons. Of course John Mason was accused of the ! murder, and though he .strenuously denied the charge, the evidence against him was i strong enough to warrant his arrest. Once in the meshes of the law ii seemed as if a hundred circumstances came up, all crying trumpet-tongued, '-Guilty !" Divers per sons had beard h'tin threaten to kill Charles McKinley : that young man had himself sai.l that he did not eolisidei his life safe as long , as John Maon remained in the country. Kven John's father admitted reluctantly that bis son had declarer! his intention of riddling Charles McKinley with buckshot, while David corroborated his parent's statement. ' Thus the coils of circumstantial evidence i closed tighter and tighter about Cue. young . man, and beyond his bare assertion there : was nothing to be said in refutation. 1 The blow bad fallen on the young girl with crushing effect. The sudden disappearance of her lover, the arrest of her brother on the charce of murdering hint, almost drove her insane. She, however, shared the popular opinion that young McKinley had been mur dered and that her brother was guilty of the terrible crime. Urged for a reason for her belief, she finally admitted that it rested on the slender foundation of a dream. On the : night succeeding the day upon which Charles ; McKinley disappeared, in a dream she saw , ber brother and hint in a violent quarrel. . ; The men were in a dark ravine ; there was i a mountain to their right, and a deep, dense . forest to their left. She board their words ; i she saw John strike McKinley with his rifle, , and fell him to the earth. That blow was . fatal. The young man never spoke after wards. John bid the body in a dark cave in : the mountains, and there it still remained : ; This dream made a powerful impression on 1 the young girl, and though many were dis posed to laugh at it, nothing could shake her : '. faith and confidence in its horrible reality. : From that time she was a changed woman. Slowly she pined away. The color faded from her cheeks, giving place to a deathly , pallor ; her eyes lost their tender glance and ; sparkled with an unearthly lustre : she ut- ! tered no complaint. I.ike the gentle girl I who loved the unfortunate Irish patriot, j Robert Emmett, she passed to ber earthly , grave, forgiving all, lieloved by every one, I the victim of a s td, broken heart ! I John Mason broke jail and fled to Texas, ' 1 his brother David going into exile with him. ' This settled all doubts or questions as to his : ! guilt or innocence. Flight was accepted by : j one and all as a confession of guilt. Liberal : i rewards were offered for the capture of the ; ! brothers, David being considered an aces- j i sory to the crime, but neither was ever aiw ' prchended. Front the Lone Star State they ! went to Louisiana, and in New Orleans fell j victims to that dread scourge, yellow fever. Letters now ut the father s possession con tain the most fervent protestations of their innocence, and subsequent events clearly exonerate them from complicity in the taking off of young McKinley. For years after, when the main actors in this strange episode slept "1:1 their graves miles r.p't ; when in terest in the scenes we have just 1 elated had almost died away, or was recalled wiih awe at the hunter's winter fireside, Cue mjstery surrounding the dis ippearanec of tiic young man was brought to light. A party of hunters, while chasing a deer in an adjacent county, found his remains in a cave in which the animal they were pursu ing had established bis lair. There wns only a ghastly-looking skeleton of a man, a rusty ritie, and. rudely carved in the yielding p k upon which it rested, these words : "Lost : can't find my way out Charles McKinley." -r 1. - '.-11 v... ; - 1 ,1 ; . . . r.. t T solved an enigma that had darkened many lives. It cleared from the foul stain of mur der, though too late, John Marn nnd his brother. HONESTY THE REST POLICY. Honesty is always that Is to say, almost always the bpst policy. For instance, the othei day as a keen-looking business man, with his hat worn on the nape of bis nfck, was standing on Ciark street, a simple, i wwky-icoking countrMad of nineteen with I a D,K envelr ln '"mL jes w,de open, came sauntersng along, looking anx : iously at all the signs, w hich he was spelling ' : out. The business man lieing naturally J kind-hearted and desiring to do a frlendiy i turn to a stranger, said to the boy: "Hi, , sonny, what are you looking for? Let me j see that letter." "No, I cant't let you have that letter, : there's bonds In it," said the boy; "but! p'raps you can tell me where Mr. Smith ; lives round here. The boss told me the number, but I have forgotten it, and the letter has got bonds in it, and so I ain't to ' l give it to anybody but to him." ; "Why, I have been waiting for you this half hour," said the keen business man, as bis face brightened up ; "waiting for you to ' bring me those bonds which I bought of ! What's-his-name ?" , "He you Mr. Smith ?" said the boy ; "well, now, I'm right g'ad i met you, because I'd clean forgot what the number was where ! the boss said you lived, and I wouldn't have i liked to go back to him without finding you; it would have looked as if I was careless." I With these remarks the lad took out a big envelope marked "J. .Smith, F.sq., present," in the upper corner, ".Wo I". S. 5 2." and j in the lower corner "Commission due, f.s. ! Please remit by hearer." 1 "That's all right, sonny," said the keen- ' looking busings man, as he hauled out a ' scantily-furnished purse, gave tho boy a five dollar bill and a quarter and said : "There, ' sonny, that quarter is to reward you for i your cleverness and fidelity;" and putting the envelope in his breast pocket, he walked : leisurely around the corner, ran to Deailx.rn street with the speed of a deer, skipped I'gb.t ly round to Madison, and, hailing a'er-.r, was whirled away at a comparatively lightning speed. Xot till he had reached Union Park did he draw the precious envelope from his pocket, and, wkh'the remark: "Pray Heaven they are not registered ."' tore it open. lie then found that the envelope cm.t tilled a copy of the Chicago Tribxtn-, whi h be could have purchased at the oflice for five cents. Meanwhile the simple eountrv lad, entering a b cr saloon i:: the v'u-ini'.y of the Sherman House, had absorb.-: I a beer, salted away the five dollar bi'.i with seven other in his pocket book, and with tb.e remark : "The fish is biting very numerously t -d iv." took another big envelope ficmi hi- pocket, and once more "allied forth in search of a keen looking business man. C7n'7.7' Tri'jvne. A Hi'max Ci i:iofitv. Kvan Thompson, son of the postmaster at Wauptira, Wis., is a human curiosity. F.van was bo:h Ma-,- -j.",. isr4. During the first three ears r.f bis life he grew tb.e same as ( flier children, and seemed possessed of u usual brilliancy. At the age of three years be could recite long pi ems perfectly, and could talk as plainlv as an adult. He knew ail bis letters, and could s-pe!l short wok's. His father and mother were proud of their son, nnd did what they could to iii-tmet him. When he was three and a half years old he was taken with a fit, tie nature- r.f wl.ich pu7!ed the doctors.

He now weighs about twelve pounds, and is thirty six inches long. The bones in bis arm are not larcer tnan an ordinary lead-pencil, and the skin is draw n tightly anuind them. His head is the size of that of any child five or six years old. He has not spoke;: a word for eleven ears, and still Is able to detect the presence r.f a stranger in the room. He knows in an instant bis father, mother, fis t( r r d brothers, and seems to talk with his eyes. They arc large, gray and vry ex pressive. With them be ean beckon or re pel, denote bis pleasure or displeasure : in fact, the members of bis family c.tn itmler stand his most trivial wants bv the expres sion of Ids eyes. Tb.e child is kept alive by eating, three times a day, about two ounces of liquid or seini-li quid food, and if more than that amount is given him it is forced up from his stomach.

In the year 1728 Margaret Icksiu wa tried at Edtiibnrg for the murder of her child, supposed to have been born during thn absence of her husband. After hrr condem nation fche behaved In the most penitent manner, aefc nowledced her itiElflitr, but constant!- and steadily denied that ih" had murdered her child or even formed an ido of ao horrih!? a crime. At the plar-e cf ei ecution her behavior was consistent t ith her fornK.r declaration, and she was hanged : Af ,er exoutlon her bod v was cut down ant nnd delivered to ber friends, who put it Into a cart to be buried at ber native place: but the weather beine sultry, the persons who hsd the body In charge stopped to drink at a il!apf about two miles from Kdinhurg. While they wer refreshing themselves, one of them perceived thn 1IJ of the coffin move, and uncovering it, the woman immediately sat up, when most of the spectators ran o ft with every sign of trepidation. A person who wa drinking in the bu!-e had recollecti.-n enough to bleed 1: r ; in about an hour after she wa? put to led, and next morning she was so recovered as to be able to walk to ber own bouse. By the Scottish law, which is partly founded on that of the Romans, a person aainet whom the Judgement of the couit has been executed can suffer no more In future, but is thence forth totally exculpated; and it is likewise held that the marrmce is dissolved by the execution of tb.e convicted part-. Mrs Dick son having been thus convicted and executed, the king's advocate could prosecute ber no further, but be filed a bill in the high court of justiciary against the sheriff for omitting to fulfill the law. The Lusband of this re stored convict married her public!" a few das after she was hanged; and she lived about thirty years afterward. A case is given in which a young lady arose out of ber coffin and appeared before the family at supper, "pale and frightened, but fair to see as before death."
