Mend Muller, on a summer'. day,
Raked the meadows sweet with hay
Beneath her torn bat :lolled the wealth
Of simple howdy and Judi& health
Hinging, she wrought, and her met ry glee
The mock.l/1 nl echoed front his tree.
But when site glanced to the far off town,
White from lie hill-slops looking down,
The sweet song Mel, and a vague unrest,
And a nameless longing ailed her breast—
A Is hilt, that she hardly dared to own,
For something better thou ate had known.
The Judge rode slowly down the lane,
Smoothing his horse's chestnut mane.
lie drew his bridle in the shade
Of the apple-tree, to greet the maid,
And auk a draught from the spring that Sowed
Through the meadows series the road.
She stooped where the cold spring bubbled up
And tilled for him her small tin cup,
And blush,' as she gave it, looking down,
On her feet no hare, and her tattered gown.
"Thanks!" said the Judge, "a sweeter draught,
From a fairer hand woe net er quailed."
Ile spoke of the grass and Cowers and trees,
Of the singing ?Ards and humming bees;
They talked of the haying, and wondered
*hi:thee
The cloud in the west would bring, foul w tattier,
And Maud forgot her briar-torn gown,
And her graceful ankles hare and brown ;
And listened, while a pleased surprise
Looked front her Jong-lashed hazel oyes.
At last like one who for delay
S. ohs a t :lin excuse, tie rode away.
!Saud Muller looked and sighed "Ah me!
That I the Judge's bride might be
Be would dress Me up in silk. au line,
And praise and toast me at Me wine,
My father should a ear a broadcloth coat;
My brother should wall a painted boat.
I'd dress my mother so grand and gay,
And the baby should haves new toy each day;
And I d feed the hungry-and clothe the poor,
And all should hiss me who le ft our door."
The Judge Molted bark rot he climbed the hill,
And BOAC Maud Muller standing still;
"A km more Pale, a face more sweet,
Neer both it been my lot to me, t,
And her nosh. - tandwer and gras.ful ale
Show her w Ise and good ...she Is fair.
Would she W, ra mine, and I, to-day,
Like her a hart aster of hay;
Ida doubtful baluncee °frights or wrongs,
Nor a earls lawy in with endies., tougu.,,
But lbw of cattle and song Of birds,
And health and quiet and loving words."
But he thought of his sister, proud and cold,
And his mother, t utu of to r rank and gold.
So closing his heart, the Judge rode on,
And Hand was left In the held alone.
But the lawyers smiled that afternoon,
When Le hummed in Court an old love LIMO;
they sung girl mused la-sole the well,
Till the ruin on the unrak,sl clot or
Ile wedded a wife of Hein st dower,
Who lhed for fashion as he for power,
Yet in his marble hearth's bright glow
Ile wide ed n picture come and go;
And ea re and Muller's hazel ey ea
looked out in their Innocent surprise,
lift, when the Wine In his glues cam red,
Ile lunged tut the way side al ell, instead;
And closed his eyes on his garnished rooms,
n.fdreain of meadows and ,lover-blooms,
And the proud man sighed, with a sestet pain•
"Alt that I were free again!
Free as when I rode that day.
Where the barefoot maiden raked her hay."
She marrieds man lir:learned and poor,
And many children played round the door,
But care and sorrow, and childbirth pain,
Left their truces on heart and brain.
And oft, when the summer sun shone hut
On the new moan hay in the meadow lot,
And she heard the little spring brook fall
Over the roadside through the wall,
In the shade of the apple-tree again
She saw a rider thaw hie rein;
And, gazing down with timid grace,
She felt his pleased eye rend her tato.
Sometimes her narrow kitchen walls,
Stretched away into stately balls;
The weary wheel to a epinnet turned,
The tallow candle an astral burned.
And for him who sat by the chimney lug
Dozing and grumbling over pipe and mug,
A manly form at her side she saw,
And Joy was duty, and love was law.
Then she took up her burden of life again,
Saying only, "It might have been "
Alas for maiden! alas for Judge!
For rich mother and household. drudge!
God pity them both! and pity MI all,
Who vainly the dreams of youth recall.
For all sad words of tongue or pen,
The saddest are thecae : " I might have been."
Ah, well! for us all some sweet hope lies
Deeply burled from human eyes;
And, lu the hereafter, angels may
Ron the stone from Its grave away!
THE man who laughs heartily is a doc
tor without a diploma. His face does
more good in a sick room than a bushel
of powders or a gallon of bitter draughts.
People are al ways glad to see him. Their
hands instinctively go half-way to meet
his grasp, while they turn involuntarily
from the clammy touch of the dyspeptic
who speaks in a groaning key. He
laughs you out of your faults, while you
never dream of being offended with him ;
and you never know what a pleasant
world you are living iu until he points
out the sunny streaks on its pathway.
HE whose religion is ever on his lips
has seldom any of that valuable treasure
in hie heart; it keeps watch like a live
ried porter at his door, but there is no
body at home, and there is nothing to
steal; if it were well lodged In his soul,
he would not be so afraid of Its escape.
He who vouches for his own truthfulness
by an oath will tell a lie the nest moment
without a blush.
IN a western village a charming, well
preserved widow had been courted and
won by a physician. She bad children ;
among them a crippled boy, who had
been petted, and, if not spoiled, was
allowed very great "freedom in debate."
The wedding day was approaching, and
it was time the children should know
that they were to have a new father.
Calling the crippled boy, she said :
"George, I am going to do something
before long that I would like to talk
about with you."
"Well ma, what is it?"
"I am intending to marry Dr. Jones in
a few days, and--'
"Bully for you, ma! Does Dr. Jones
know it?"
Ma caught her breath, but failed to ar
ticulate a response.
A FOREIGNER who heard of the Yankee
propensity for bragging thought he
would best the natives at their own game.
Seeing some very large water melons
on amarket woman's stand, he exclaimed,
"What don't you 'raise larger apples

a foreigner—them's gooseberries !"

ordered a few dollars' worth of goods
The merchant stared at him; but ae
there was uo great hazard to laying out
articles for him, none of which were to

the goods were ready, the merchant

tinned the Dutchman, with great mod•

enough."
Then taking a thousand dollar bill
from his pocket, he extended it to the
merchant, with a sly leer on his twee,
and said :
"Will you change dat
"That—what a thousand dollar bill?
Is it possible that—that a mho of your

"What, rnisther, be's you soar%
Did you never two a thousand dollar bill

"A man of your appearance 1 ,, sonde
