David Bray's Estate.
Over hi* forge bent David Gray,
And thought of the rich man acre** the way.
" Hammer and anvil for me," he *aid,
11 And weary toil for the children'* bread ;
" For him soft carpet* and pictured walls,
A life of ca*e in hi* *paciou* halla ''
The clang of hell* on hi* dreaming broke ;
A flicker of flamo, a whirl of smoke.
Ox in travi*. forge grown white hot.
Coat and hat were alike forgot,
A* up the highway the blackumith ran,
In face and mien like a craty man.
" School house all re 1" Men* heart* stood stall.
And women prayed, a women will.
While o'er the tumult the wailing cry
Of frightened children rose shrill and high.
Night in its shadow* hid *nn ind earth.
The rich man sat by hi* costly hearth,
Lord of wide acre* and untold gold,
But wifeless, child!***, forlern and old.
He thought of the family 'croa* the way;
" I would." he sighed. " 1 were David Gray.
Tlie blacksmith knelt at hi* children* bed
To look once more at each smiling heed.
"My darlings all safe 1 Oh. God " he cried,
" My sin in Thy boundless merry hide!
44 Only to-day have I learned how great
Hath been Thy bounty aud my estate."
Taking Her Down.
Two girl*, both young, and one very
beautiful, sat conversing in a comforta
ble sitting-room iu s mansion at the
West End. The ham isomer of tlie two,
Maude Pierson, wore a traveling divas
of brown nioriuo, and was evidently rest
ing after a journey.
In spite of certain languor Iniru of
fatigue, and her unbecoming dross, the
girl was undeniably a beauty, of a gor
geous brunette type. Her companion,
passing prettv, was of the same .lark
tint, but smaller iu figure, and far from
possessing Maude's great Ivautv
" Tell me about everybody,' Maude
said. "lam fairly hungry for gossip
after vegetating nearly two yean* iu that
abominable place with my aunt. She
ha* left me an ample fortune, however,
so the time was not altogether thrown
awav."
""Dead?" cried her companion. "Ton
are not in mourning, and—why, Maude,
yon said yon were going to Lady Rals
ton'* this"evening."
"So I am. Aunt Maria has leeu dead
six months, and requested me not to
wear black and to return to town in No
vember. But, Cora, tell me the news.
Who has been tlie belle of our set since
I left?"
" You conceited girl!" laughed her
friend.
• • Bah ! What is the use of duplicity ?
For, between ourselves, I should be an
idiot if I did not know 1 was handsome.
How is Lord Frederick Seymour?"
" One question at a time, though I
can answer these two together. The belle
has been the object of Lord Frederick
Seymour's special devotion since she
made her debut last month. Mrs.
Horsey introduced her. She is a niece,
I believe, of old Mrs. Mortimer, who
died three years ago and left her all her
money."
" But who is she?"
" Het name is Worthington—Lsuier
Worthington."
" Esther Worthington ?" cried Maude,
slnuply. " What is she like ?"
" Tall, slender, very fair, with delicate
features, and unmistakably a beauty, who
sings exquisitely; and, having been on
the continent with Mrs. Mortimer, speaks
two or three modern languages with
fluency."
" How old ?"
"Abont your age, I judge—twenty
four or five. "
Maude broke into a harsh laugh.
" Mrs. Mortimer's niece !" she cried.
" Well, that is rich! And so young
Lord Frederick Seymour is in love with
her !"
44 He is certainly very devoted. Every
body thinks it will be a match."
44 A match J" cried Maude, in another
burst of mocking merriment, 44 Lord
Frederick Sevmour and Esther Worth
ington ! Well, well! I tell you," she
said, with a touch of sarcasm in her
tones, 44 it w ill not be a match ! I will
take her down."
44 What do you mean ?"
44 Will this belle be at Lady Ralston's
this evening?"
44 Probably. Bnt do tell me, Mande,
what von know abont her ?"
44 1 know 4 enough to cool Lord Fred
erick Seymour's ardor," said Maude;
44 and he shall learn the truth. To
think of that girl's daring to move in
our set!"
"Well, as to that," Cora replied,
"being handsome, accomplished, re
fined, and heiress to doable your for
tune, Maude, I cannot see where the
audacity comae in, especially as Mrs.
Hursey has her for a guest, and we all
know Low particular she is. The Sey
mours themselves are not prouder than
the Hurseys."
" You wait until the evening ! I sup
pose the girl thinks nobody here knows
her. IH humble her! She won't attend
anv more fashionable parties after I've
told my story!"
" But what is your story ?"
"You'll hear to-night."
"Tell me now," Cora said, coaxingly.
" No. Let me lie down awhile and
rest, or I shall look like a ghost this
evening."
A very brilliant ghost it would have
beeu to resemble Maude Piersoa, as she
entered Lady Balaton's saloon a few
hours later. An evening dress of garnet
velvet, cut to display the beautifully
rounded shoulders ami arms, and
trimmed with rich black lace, ornaments
of diamonds, and a cluster of white
flowers in the jetty braids of hair, all
heightened her queenly beauty.
Looking across the crowded room, she
recognized her rival in a tall, slender
girl, who wore white lace over peach
colored satin, and ornaments of fretted
gold. Lord Frederick Seymour was
already in attendance, apparently, for he
was leading this lady to the head of a
quadrille just forming when Maude en
tered. The sight stimulated anew all
the hatred of Esther Worthington that
had been roused by Cora's description.
A cold-hearted, calculating woman,
deyoted to dress, wealth and luxury—
selfish to her heart's core, carrying the
smiling face of a belle over a bitter envy
of all more fortnaate than herself—
Maude Pierson had never felt the touch
of womanhood until her heart opened to
Lord Frederick Seymour.
An orphan, dependent upon an aunt
devoted to the frivolities of fashion,
Maude's educatiou had been superficial,
and an undue value had been given in
her thoughts to the advantages of birth,
position and fortune.
Miss Piereon was very proud of the
blue blood in her own veins; and Maude's
success as a belle was as much a triumph
to her aunt as to hereelf.
When the long illness set in that drove
Miss Pierson to the seclusion and quiet
of a country home, her niece had begun
to hope that the attentions of " Lord
Fred." were more than those called for
by the ordinary requirements of Bociety.
It had been a great blow to her to be
suddenly whirled out of the vortex of
London gaiety, to be buried alive in the
little town where much of her childhood
had passed, under her aunt's care. But
she was far too polite to murmur loudly,
and when her relative died, it was with
the firm ponviction that all Maude's ten
der care and devotion were dictated by
warmest affection. It was singularly
characteristic of Miss Piereon that in her
will she stipulated that Maude should
return to London six months after her
death, and wear no mourning. In one
of their last interviews she said to her:
"You will soon be twenty-five, Maude,
and you shall not bury yourself here
next winter. It might ruin your pros
pects of a good match."
And Maude, secretly exultant, wept
copiously ns she assured her dear aunt
that " Society would have no charms for
her were she to be deprived of her life
long companion."
Yet the six months dragged wearily
when she thought of Lord Frederick
Seymour, Would he love her better for
lier golden charms, or did he know her
fortune, after all was small, compared
with his own princely income ? Hail a
fairer face eclipsed her memory ?
Carefully during the long summer did
the beautiful brunette cherish her owu
charms, and gloriously did they repay
her care when she burst up* hi her old
friends, more superbly handsome than
ever, at Ladv Ralston * reception.
Esther \Vorthington. looking at her
as she entered the room, turned to her
conipaniou, saying, iu a low ti>ue:
44 1* not that Mis* Pierson ?"
"Yea. I* she not handsome?"
44 Maguificently so! I can s-iaroely
imagine a more queenly beauty. She
was not a very pretty child, dark and
thin. Will she recognise me, 1 wonder,
a* eaailv a* 1 do her ?"
44 You were children when you last
met ?"
"About twelve years old; but we
lived near each other for six years before
that. Will she look down upou me now
as scornfully as she did tliou ?"
44 Hush, iron pain me!" was tlie re
ply. 44 Try U> forget the dark days."
44 Nav, for they make happy one* all
tlie brighter," was the gentle reply.
44 Row to your partner 1"
For the music of tliequadrille sounded
in the long room, and attention was re
quired to the intricacies through which
Miss Worthington and her partner pro
posed to lead their set.
When it was over, Esther, leaning on
her partner's arm, turned to find herself
confronting Maude Pierson. With a
sweet smile, she extended her hand.
44 Have you forgotten me ?" she
asked.
44 1 remember yon well, 44 was tlie re
ply, ill a freexiug time, 44 and I ixiufeaa
my surprise is very great to meet a
chantv girl amongst my friend*."
44 A* charity girl! cried several
voices.
44 Yon may doubt me," said Mainl,
answering them, 44 but let Miss Worth
mgton deny, if she can, that she was
taken from a cliantv school to be tlie
nursery maid of Mrs. Thumton, my
aunt's * cousin and neighbor. Let her
ilouv, if she can, that ahe dnl a menial's
work for years in their house. She may
palm herself off as Mrs. Mortimer's uieoe
upon strangers, but I, knowing her,
decline tlie honor of her acquaintance."
The delicate, beautiful Esther Worth
ington grew very pale during tliia in
sulting address, but she drew herself
erect as haughtily as Maude Plenum
herself, as that young lady ceased to
speak.
44 All you have said is quite true," she
replied, " and my only reason for con
cealing tlie facts you now force upon my
friends was the request of my dear aunt,
Mrs. Mortimer. Mrs. Huraey.Ladv Ral
ston, and several other* of those who
honor me with their friendship, know
well the family history you force me to
relate to our friends here. You will par
don me for obtruding my private affairs
upou you; but since Miss Plenum has
*ttacked my veracity, I must defend it.
Mv parents were marned against the
wishes of my mother's father, who car
ried his resentment to tlie grave, and cut
my mother out of lus will. When I was a
babe, my father died; and my mother,
ill, feebie, penniless, was taken to the
workhouse when* she, too, died. Her
sister, Mrs. Mortimer, was in Cana
da at the time, andjuuaware of my exist
ence.
44 What Miss Pierson lias so delicately
told yon of my childhood is quite true.
I was taken from the workhouse to till s
servant's place; bat my employer* were
kind, and 1 was allowed to attend school
in the winter. I think they will testify
that if my duties were menial, they were
faithfully performed. When I was thir
teen, my aunt returned home and found
me ont, Since then I have been her
charge, and the kindest love was lavish
ed upon me me until, at her death, I be
came tlie guest of my friend, Mrs. Hur
sey. I hope you will pddon me for tak
ing np so much of your time; and if you
desire, with Miss Pierson, to decline the
farther acquaintance of a workhouse
girl, I can only accept your decision with
some regret for a deceit that was only in
accordance with the wishes of the dead."
44 Stay a moment," said Lord Frede
rick Seymour, as the friends of the
beautiful girl wonld have pressed more
warmly than ever around her; 44 let me
speak "one word. By the request of Miss
Worthington, I have retained from men
tioning the honor she has conferred upou
me, and which is the crowning pride and
happiness of my life. When I asked
her to become my wife, to give me the
priceless treasure of her love, she told
me the story you have just heard, and I,
too, joined mv entreaties to those of her
aunt "Not, Le added, haughtily, 44 that
I valned my future wife the less, but
that I understood that, even in our so
ciety there are.some ignoble enough to
count her early misfortunes as a shame
ful fact, and if nore the beauty of char
acter that ocnld keep her noble, pure
and true, even in the lowlv home to
which the misfortunes of her parent*
condemned her. Miss Worthington will
yon take my arm to the conservatory ?
yon are pale, and need rest"
With an air of tender affection, of fond
pride, he led her through the group of
friends who spoke warmest words as she
passed.
Fiudifig her a seat near the fountain,
he said, in a low tone ; 44 1 am glad thev
all know it, Essie, for a secret is u,
troublesome burden."
44 Bnt, you—oh, Fred, if it shames
yon "
44 Hush! I never honored you so
highly, or loved you so fondly, as I did
when that girl ionnd insulting tannts
answered by roar own dignified frank
ness. We will not speak of it again.
Rest here till I bring yon an ice, and we
will return to our friends. 44
" Maude," Cora said, as the girls un
bound their hair in their own room tie
fore retiring, 44 1 don't think your little
scene was altogether a success. From
the warmth of her friends, when Esther
Worthington returned to the drawing
room, and Lord Frederick Seymour's
devotion, I reallv imagine you placed
that lady upon a higher pedestal of favor
than ever, in yonr amiable endeavor to
take her down."
A Moth Exterminator Wanted.
Miss Grundy has returned to Wash
ington and says : 44 The residence of
ex-Senator Stewart, of Nevada, generally
known an 4 Castle Stewart,' has been
rented, I hear, for $6,000 for tlie
session. This is q startling reduction,
as the price jer annum was fixed at $lB,-
000 heretofore. It was reduced proba
bly because the superb furniture, cur
tains and carpets have all been rained
by moths during the two years it has
been without a tenant. The upholstery
was very costly and elegant. The richly
embroidered satin which covered the
chairs, sofas, etc., in the parlors, as well
as the Gobelin tapestry curtains, was
purchased at the last Paris exposition,
and brought here to be made np. Ido
not think moth ever cut silk or satin,
hat all the materials containing wool in
the house, including the Gobelin tapes
try, which draped many of the windows
of the parlor floor, have been seriously,
if no irreparably, injured. Ex-Senator
Stewart, has occasionally lived there
since his family went to California, but
only as a lodger, and the rooms have not
been opened and aired properly, other
wise the moths might have been sub
dued, though they are always more
difficult to exterminate here than in any
other place with which I am acquainted.
Greatness In a Hovel.
A war correspondent says: Gorny
Studen is a wretched village of a few
hundred inhabitants, the Turkish quar
ter being on one hill and the Bulgarian
on the op)x>site height. The former is
deserted by its proprietors and the
houses have been unroofed by soldiers
to get at the wooden rafters, fuel being
scarce in northern Bulgaria. The only
building remaining in this part of the
village is occupied by the emperor of all
the Russias. It is built of unburnt clav
bricks, and its low root covered with
rongh tiles. Here in this hovel the auto
crat passes his days and nights, anxiously
awaiting news from hiß various armies in
the field. There is no pomp surround
ing this humble imperial residence; two
Circassians on the guard with drawn sa
bers were, when I first saw it, all that
stood between the czar and the outside
world. A short distance from the house
is a large tent, where the emperor dines
at six with his staff and invited guests
On the opposite side of the little street
or road is the tent of Gen. Ignatieff.

elephant.
Paul Luhn, one of the Reiche Broth
ers' meu, who ha* lately returned from
Africa with rare birds and animal*, tell*
interesting stories of the peril* of the
hunt. He says • " The lion i* a fierce
creature, and tlie hone**, when protect
ing her youug, very much worse ; but
frotu long practice we know juat ho* to
go after them. A good rifie, firm hand*,
and steady eye*, and we can soon topple
the old fellow over. The old lady tuay
take a little longer, but iu the end we
are sure to kill her, anil then it is no
trouble to pick up and secure the cub.
We try to get these little fellows when
they are aland three or four weak* old.
They are then like youug puppies, easily
managed, and aoou learn to know their
keeper*. Leopards, tigera, and all that
kind of animal* we get tu the same way,
and at about the same age. Babv ele
phant* are hard to get, and the hunt is
very ihuigerou*. The old one* smun to
know instinctively when we are after
their vouug, and their rage is something
terrible. The truui|>etiug of the parent*
can be heard for a long distance, und
quickly alarrna the whole herd. The
ride is comparatively useless, and try
ing to approach them t>articularly haz
ardous ; yet it ha* to be done. First,
we try to* distract the attentiou of the
female from her offspring. Then a na
tive creeps cautiously up from behind,
anil, with one cut of a heavy, hroad
bladed knife, severs tlie tendons of her
hind feet. She is then disabled, cannot
walk, and aoun falls to the ground. We
promptly kill her, secure the ivory, and
capture the little one. Of course, we
occasionally have a native or two killed
in tins kirn) of hunt ; but thev don't ovist
much—only $5 or st> apiece, 'f he sheikhs
are paid in advance, and don't care
whether the poor fellows come back,
and so we don't 1 Hither much about
them. Baby elephant* we like to get
when they are about one year old.
Younger one* are too tender, and older
one* know too rnnoli. They soon get
acquainted wnh all the camp, and we
have lots of fun with them. They are
are kindly, docile, and as full of capers
a* the little nigger babies that play with
them.
'• But of all fierce, ungovernable,
losty brutes," the hunter continued,
"the hippopotamus with young ia the
very worst, and whenever we start off
to get a baby of that kind, we calculate
to come back with one or more men
tniaoing. In the water thev fight like
fiends, and in five minutes will crush to
piece* the strongest boat we can use.
They are quick as a flash, too, notwith
standing their clumsv appearance, and
the oarsman have to l>e wide awake to
keep out of their way. On shore they
are just an ferocious, and the way they
can hurry their stumpy little legs over
the ground would astouish yon. They
die hard, too, and take a heap of killing.
When such a job is over you may be
sure there is great rejoicing among us ;
bat as one little hippopotamus ia worth
as much ss half a dozen lion*, tigers,
and such trnck, we are well contented to
take the risk. We cannot get these
babies too young to suit us. One I
i remember, though I was not in tlie
bant, was captured tlie very day it was
born, and the hunters and attendants
! brought it up on the bottle. It is the
same animal that Itanium advertised so
extensively as the ' Baby Hippopota
mus,' and it is now traveling with his
show. Ostriches we run down on horse
back, and then catch them with the
lasso. It is an exciting cliaae, but not
4 particularly dangerous. On these
hunt* we are entitled to only tlie young
animals we capture. The beautiful
skins of tlie leopards, lions, and other
| animals we kill, the tusks of the ele
phants, the feathers of tlie ostriches,
and all other similar spoils go to the
native sheikhs and chiefs ; and those
old rascals are sharp at a trade.
A sufficient number and variety of
animals liaving been secured, a caravan
is formed to take them across tlie desert
ito Germany or America. This usually
consists of about one hundred camels,
each having its native driver; thirty or
: forty horses for the white meu and the
Arab hunters aud their attendants; a
flock of from 150 to 200 goats, for their
milk and also for food, and black slaves
to look out for the goats. The wild ani
mals are secured in strong boxes and
carried on the camel*' back*. They are
all young, and are fed principally with
goats' milk, olthon *h occasionally, to
j keep them in good spirits and flue con
! dition, they are given pieces of raw
: goats' meat. Horses are very cheap
there, ranging from sls to S2O each—
the natives even cheaper, $8 1 icing
thought an extravagant price |>er man
for the trip. Milking goats are worth
|sl each, and others about fifty cents.
The journey usually occupies from thirty
to forty davs, and all traveling is done
between three and eleven in the morn
ing nud five and eleven in tlie evening.
During midday the sun's rays are so
fiercely hot as to make labor or traveling
hazardous, and none is attempted. The
route home is much the same as that
taken going out, and in due time the
i>easts are landed, usually with very
little loss, on the great sbick wild ani
mal farm of Charles Iteiche A Brother,
in Alfeldt, Hanover. There they remain
until needed to fill orders of showmen in
either Europe or America, while their
hardy captors take three months of rest
and recreation before starting on another
trip.
The Reiche Brothers have nearly
$250,000 invested in this enterprise,
which they have successfully conducted
for many years. Tlie extravagance of
the prices paid for some of the beasts is
! little known. As high as $15,000 has
lieen paid for a single hippn)>otamus in
good condition. To-day $20,000 would
hardly buy a specimen, a* there is not
one in the country that is known to be
for sale. A rhinoceros is worth from
$.'1,000 to $7,000, according to the de
mand and exoellenoe. Giraffes sell for
SI,OOO to $6,000. Lions from SSOO to
$2,500, leopards from S2OO to S4OO,
hyenas about the same, and ostriches
from 8300 to SSOO. Eicphsnts vary in
prioe, for, while some have sold for as
low as SI,OOO, as high as SIO,OOO has
been paid without grumbling for a fine,
big, intelligent one.
It was a little hard on the young man,
for he meant well and had a sincere ad
miration for the girl. They were sitting
at the table with a company of others,
and as he passed her the sugar he mur
mured in an undertone: "Here it is,
sweet, just like you." The complimeDt
was a little awkward, to be sure, but he
meant it, and it seemed more than cruel
when in a moment later she had occasion
to paas the butter to him, she drawled:
" Here it is, soft, just like you."

" I'm ao aleepy that I think I shall
just cuddle down in the feathers and take
a nap."
'• IX> it," aaid 1 from my perch.
So after a while 1 apoke to her with
out turuiug my head, ami alie didn't an
swer.
"Sound asleep, pour little chicken,"
thought I, ami driv on.
It wan a cloudy sort of moruiug. We'd
[vanned through the marsh, and the rnoa
ijuitoes burred about, but never roused
the gijl Up. We'd come to the woods,
ami there you couldn't ace your hand
before your face, and still she wixn sound
snlecP. 1 thought, and P was glad she
should have such a good rest. Hut
when we'd come to the top of the hill,
ami I could see our little house, I could
not stand it any longer. I felt as if I'd
like to hsve her take Ahe first peep along
with me."
"Martha !" I shouted, turning around
on the high seat, " Martha, wake up,
lassie! We can see our house from
here."
Hut there I stopped short, ami thought
1 should die. Martlin wasn't there.
Neither she nor tl*e feather bed was on
the cmrt—it wan just empty.
She'd fallen off somewhere—but
where? Ami what might have happened
to her? There were plenty of wild
beasts in the wood* then—the smaller
kind, of course, but not pleasant to meet
—and the swanp in parts wan deep
enough to druwu in.
I couldn't stop to drive Istck slow and
careful. I jumped down, leaving old J*d
to take care of himself, ami away I flew
back int.* the woods, calling " Martha !
Martha !" and feeling alxout as 1 went,
but nobody auswend.
I tell Tou. boys, it was a dreadful hour
for me; I almost fainted, or got a tit.
or something, liefore I gut through the
woods to the mArnh. But there, there I
wan stopped, ami laving so scared, had
made ao uervous, that I burst out a
laughing.
Tin re, in the midst of the soft mud,
arms the feather bed, all sin*-and ami
sputtered, ami on it sat Martha, crying.
The mml wasn't much over her knees if
she'd waded out, but die hail her new
boots on and her Sunday go-to-meeting
merino, and she couldu't make up her
mind to do it. She was safe, but she
was oold, and oh, boys, wasn't she
cross 1
" I'm going liaok to nix," aoblxed she
across the mud. " If you'd eared for me,
yon could not have lost me off."
" Oh, Martlia I" said I but she
wouldn't look at me.
I weut into the mtul ami brought her
ont, and then I weut for the wagon and
got out poor Grandmother Smith's
feather bed, and then we went home. It
wasn't a pleasant ending to the wedding,
I can tell von. Rut after Martha hod
cried an liour or two she txcgau to get
over it, and at last she told me how it all
liapixened, as far as she knew.
She fell so sound asleep that alio
dreamed she was at homo, and the old
lady calling her to get np ami get break
fast, anil said she to herself in her sleep:
'• Its very cold this morning," ami turn
ed over to feel for the* blankets; that
started the bed and off it slid, and there
it lay in the mtnl, and there she lay on
top of it; and when nly> waked up she
could not remomlxer where she was, but
thought the roof had blown off the old
honae or she'd been carried off by the
old boy, until I'd driven too far away to
I hear her.
After that she owned up it was some
her fault, and we made np, didn't we,
Martha? anil stayed so;but that was my
"wedding tour. "Twasn't as flue a* Mar

Reflections on the Clam.
Miniate™ may learu n lesson from the
clam. It only opens its month to dis
close richness.
The clam wen™ a rough exterior, but
he is a merry and social . entleman at
heart. So are many whom the world
oonside™ harsh and uncongenial.
The wife may learn a lesson from the
clam. It krcps its house in order, and
never strolls about to the neglect of
duty. '
(iossips may learn a lesson from the
clam. It never opens its mouth at the
wrong time, and keeps its siyiret while
life lasts. Science says that it took mil
lion* of years to evolve man from the
clam; observation shows that it taken
less than a minute to transfer the clam
into the man.
Itnsines* men may learn a lesson from
the clam. It has no smile during busi
ness houn, but when it feels the warmth
of society, it opens its very heart, and
gives itself up to iucrease the jollity of
the hour.
A Japanese* Image.
One of the new and curious mitrmonn
of Tokio, Japan, is a gigantic image of
a woman, moth' of wood mid plaster, and
dedicated to Hachimun, tin* god of war.
In height it measures fifty-four feet, the
head alone, which is rescued by a wind
ing staircase in the interior of the figure,
being capable of holding about twenty
persons with comfort. A sword is held
m the right hand and a huge hall in the
left Internally the novelty consists of
an extraordinary anatomical model. A
fine view of the" surrounding district is
obtained by looking through ono of the
eyes, and tho price of admission is only
two cents The image is situated beside
the temple of Hachiman, close by the
Knanon of Asakusa, and is well worth a
visit.

The proprietor stood by hut desk hold
iuff iu one hand a letter. His mauuer
imiicated nothing of what was passing tu

he ltauded the letter to his clerk and
told him to read tL The yoong tmut

"Is that true?" inquired tho pro

" It ia true," was the sad reply.

trembling clerk by the haml and said to
him : " You are the man I want. You

Daniel Webster gave a reception to

Cabinet. Among thoae preaent were

room, and, of course, Leonard the un
fortunate was also Leonard the observed.
Webster rushed to the wreck of the
" Buckeye," extended both handa to
haul him tin, aud aaid :
" Why, Mr. Leonard, you ought to
know that no cabinet work will hold to

There was n general langh, and Leon

An Heroic Old Soldier.
There was n private soldier named
Gardieff who won fame aud death in an
heroic manner, write* a war correspon
dent in an mono tint of a recent engage
ment in the Eastern wnr. He was an
old soldier, but had, not long ago, fallen
into disgrace. He had received severe
punishment for disorderly conduct, and
on being permitted to resume his place
in the rntiks, the commander of his
squadron had said to him: " Gardieff,
you had better get yourself killed, or do
something now that will make us forget
your past Italics. The brave fellow waa
seen to dash wildly into the fight; slash
ing right and left, he killed with his own
hand four of the Turks within five min
utes, when he was surrounded and liter
ally hewn and hacked to pieces. It was
the intention of his regiment to give the
body n ceremonial burial on the follow
ing'day, but the battle prevented this
from being carried out, and brave (lar
diefT was committed to the earth amoug
the ordinary dead.
