NAVD NVLLSR.
Maud Muller on a summer's day,
Raked the meadow sweet with bay.
Beneath her torn hat glowed the wealth
Of simple bealkty and rteitio health.
Singing she wrought and her merry glee
The mooting-bird mimed from hie tree.
But, when she glanoni to the far-off town,
White from its hill slope looking down.
The sweet mug died, and a vague unrest
And a nameless longing filled her bread—
A whth, that she hardly dared to own,
For something better than she had known.
The Judge rode slowly down the lane,
Smoothing his bone's chestnut mane.
2 00
1 00
/ 00
1 00
1 00
He drew his brittle In the shade
Of the apple trees. to greet the maid
And ask a draught from , priog that
1 00
1 00
1 00
1 00
flowed
Through the meadow acro be road
She stopped where the ()or): - •rin_ babbled
by,
And filled for him her smsli tin cup,
And blushed as she gave it looking down
On her feet ao bare, and her tattered gown.
"Thanks I" Wald the Judge, "a sweeter
draught
From a fairer hand was never quaffed."
Re spoke of the grass and flowers and
trees,
Of the singing birds and the bumming
bees;
11 . 00
1 00
Then talked of the haying, and wondered
whether
The cloud in the west would bring fool
weather.
And Maud forgot her brier-torn gown.
And her graceful ankles bare and brown
And listened, while a pleased surprise
Looked from her long lashed hazel eyes
At last, like one wbo for delay
Seeks a vain exciv!e, he rode away
Maud Muller looked and sighed; "Al',
me!
That I the Judge's bride might be !
$1 00
"He would dress me up. In auks so fine
And praise and toast me at his wine.
"My father should wear a broadcloth coat
My brother should sail a painted boat.
"I'd dress my mother so grand and gay,
And the baby should have a new toy each
day.
"And I'd feed the hungry and clothe the
poor,
And all should bless me who left our
door."
The Judge looked back as he cliwed the
hill,
And saw Maud Muller standing still
"A form more falr, : a face more sweet,
rie'er bath it, been my lot to meet.
"And her modest answer and graceful air
Show her wise and good as she la fair.
"Would she were mine, and I to-day,
Like her, a harvester of hay ;
"No doubtful balance of wrighla and
wrongs.
Nor weary lawyers wltb endless tongue
"But low of cattle and song of birds.
And health and quiet and loving words.
But ha thought of his sisters proud and
cold,
And his mother vain of her rank and gold
So, closing hit heart, the Judge rode on,
And Maud was left in the field alone.
But the lawyer smiled that afternoon,
When'he hummed In court an old love
tune ;
And, the young girl mused beside the
well.
Till the rain on the awaked clover fell
He wedded s wife of rlchest dower,
Who lived for fashion, u be for power
Yet Mt, in hla marble hearth's brigb

Looked out in their Innocent surptise.
Oft, when the wine in his glass was red,
He longed for the wayside well instead ;
And closed his eyes on his garnished
rooms,
To dream of meadows and clover-blooms.
And the proud man sighed, with a secret
pain,
"Ah ! that I were free again!
"Free aa when I rode that day,
Where the barefoot maiden raked the hay,"
She wedded a man Unlearned and poor,
And many children played round her
door.
But care and sorrow, and childbirth pain,
Lett their traces on heart and brain.
And oft, when the summer son shone hot
On the new-mown hay in the meadow lot,
And sbe heard the little spring brook fall
Over the roadside, througti the wall,
In the shade of the apple tree again
She saw a rider draw his rein.
And, gazing down with timid grace,
She felt his pleased eyes read her Awe.
Sometimes her narrow kitchen,wallt
Stretched away into stately halls;
The weary wheel epinnet turned,
The tallow candle an 'astral burned.
And for him who sat by the chimney lug,
Dosing and grumbling o'er pipe and mug.
A mainly form at her side she saw,
And joy was duty and love was law.
Then she took up her burden of lire again
Saying only, "It might have been."
Alas for maiden, alas for Judge,
For rich repiner and household drudge

A 11101111PITAL SKETCH!.
room MU LLOCITT4 111041.1!ETAL BRITONS S
One evening Lund a lately emptied bed
occupied by a large, fair man, with a fine
face and the serenest eyes I ever met One
of the earlier comers had often spoken of a
friend, who bad remained behind that those
apparently worse wounded than himself
might reach a shelter first. It seemed a
David and Jonathan sort of friendship.
The man fretted for his mate, and was nev
er tired of praising John—his courage, sot
ditty, self-denial, and unfailing kindliness
of heart; always winding up with : "He's
an out an' out fine feller, ma'am ; you see
if he ain't P I had some cariosity to be.
bold this piece of excellence, and when he
came I watched him for a night or two be-
Gore I made friends with him ; for to tell
the truth I was a little afraid of the stately
looking man, whose bed had to be length
ened to accommodate his commanding stat
ure ; who seldom spoke, uttered no com
plaint, asked no sympathy, but tranquilly
observed what went on about him ; and as
he lay high upon his pillows, no picture of
a dying statesman or warrior was ever fuller
of real dignity than this Virginia black
smith. A most attractive face he had,
framed in brown hair and beard, comely
featured and full of vigor, as yet unsulxined
by pain ; thoughtful and often beautifully
Mild, while watching the afflictions of
others, as if entirely forgetful of his own.
His mouth was grave and firm, with plenty
of will and courage in its lines, but a smile
could make it as sweet as any woman's ;
and his eyes were child's eyes, looking one
fairly in the face, with a clear straightfor
ward glance, which promised well for such
as placed their faith in him. He seemed to
cling to life, as If it were rich in duties and
delights and he had learned the secret of
content. The only time I saw his compoe
are disturbed was when my surgeon
brought another to examine John, who
scrutinized their faces with anxious looks,
asking of the elder. "Do you think I shall
pull through, sir ?" "I hope so, my man."
Ind, as the two passed on, John's eye still
followed them, with an intentness which
would have 'won a truer answer from them,
had they seen it. A momentary shadow
flitted over his face ; then came the usual
serenity, as if in that brief eclipse he had
acknowledged the existence of some bard
possibility, and, asking nothing yet hoping
all things, left the issue in God's hands,
with that submission which is true piety.
The next night as I went my rounds with
Dr. P., I happened to ask which man in
the room probably suffered most ; and to
my great surprise he glanced at John.
"Every breath he draws is like a stab ;
for the ball pierced the left lung, broke a rib
Ind did no end of damage here and there
so that the poor lad can find neither forget
fulness nor ease, because he must lie on his
wounded back or suffocate. It will be a
hard struggle and a long one, for he posses
ses great vitality ; but even his temperate
life can't save him ; I wish it could."
"You don't mean he must die, doctor ?"
"Bless you, there's not the slightest hope
for him ; and you'd better tell him so before
long ; women have a way of doing such
things comfortably, so I leave it to you.
He won't last more than a day or two at the
furthest."
I could have sat down on the spot and
cried heartily if I had not learned the wis•
dom of bottling up one's tears for leisure
moments. Such an end seemed very hard
for such a man, when half a dozen worn
out, worthless bodies round him were gath
ering up the remnants of wasted lives to
linger on for years perhaps, earnest, brave,
and faithful; fighting for liberty and jus
tice with both heart and hand, true soldiers
of the Lord. • • • • . •
After that night, an hour of each evening
that remained to him was devoted to his
ease or pleasure. He could not talk much,
for breath was precious, and he spoke In
whispers ; but from occasional converse-
ons, I gleaned scraps of private history
which only added to the affection and re
spect I felt for him. Once he asked me to
write a letter, and as I settled pen and paper,
I said, with an Irrepressible glimmer of
feminine curiosity, "Shall it be addressed to
wife, or mother, John ?"
"Neither, ma'am ; I've got no wife, and
will write to mother myself when I get
better. Did you think I was married be-
cause of this ?" he asked, touching a plain
ring be wore, and often turned thoughtfully
on his finger when he lay alone.
"Pertly that, but more from a settled sort
of look you hate ; a look which young men
seldom get imtil they marry."
"I didn't know that ; but I'm not so very
young, ma'am, thirty in May, and have
been what yon might call settled this ten
years. Mother's a widow. I'm the the old
est child she has, and it wouldn't do for me
to marry until JAzzy has a home of her
own, and Jack's learned his trade ; for
we're not rich, and I must be father to the
children and husband to the dear old wo
man, If I can."
"No doubt but you•are both, John ; y.
how came you to go to war, if you felt so
Wasn't enlisting as bad as marrying r
"No, ma'am, Dot as I see it, for one Is
helping my neighbor, the other pleasing
myself. I went becsuse.l couldn't help it.
I didn't want the glory or the pay ; I want-
ed the right thing done, and the people kep
saying the men who were in earnest, ough
to fight. I was in earnest, the Lord knows!
but I held off u long u I could, not know
ing which was my duty. Mother saw the
came, gave me her ring to keep me steady,
and said 'Go ;' so I went."
A. short story and a simple one, but the
man and the mother were portrayed. better
than, loges of fine writing could have done
It.
"Do you ever regret that you came, when
~von lie here suffering so much ?".,
"Never, ma'am ; I haven't helped a great
deal, tilt -I've shown I was willing to give
my life, and perhaps I've got to ; but I don't
blame anybody, and if it was to do over
spin, rd do it. rm a little sorry I wasn't ,
wounded in front ; i< looks cowardly to be
hit in the back, but I obeyed orders, and It
don't matter in the end, I know."
Poor Jahn I It did not matter now, except
theta shot in front might have spared the
long agony in store for him. He seemed to
reek the thought that tumbled me, u he
spoke so hopefully when there was no hope,
for he suddenly sided:—

have said the same could he have seen the
ominous black holes between his shoulders;
be never had, but seeing the ghastly sights
about him, could not believe his own wound
more fatal than these, for all the suffert . ng it
caused him.
"Shall I write to your mother, now 1" I
asked, thinking that these sudden tidings
might change all plans and purposes. But
they did not: for the man received the or
der of the Divine Commander to march
with the unquestioning obedience with
which the soldier had received that of the
human one ; doubtless remembering that
the'flrst led him to life, and the last to
death.
"No, ma'am; to Jack Just the same ; he'll
break it to her best, and I'll add a line to
her myself when you get done."
So I wrote the letter which he dictated,
finding it better than any I had sent ; for,
though here and there a little ungrammati
cal or inelegani, each sentence came to me
briefly worded; but most expressive ; full of
excellent counsel to the boy, ientlerly be
queathing "mother and Lizzie" to his care,
and bidding him good bye in words the
sadder for their simplicity. Ho added a few
lines, with steady hand, and, as I scaled it,
said, with a patient sort of sigh, "I hope
the answer will come in time for me to sec
it ;" then, turning away his face, laid the
flowers against his lips, as if to hidossome
quiver cf emotion at the thought of such a
sudden sundering of all the deur home ties.
These things bad happened twa t days be
fore ; now John was dying and the letter
had not come. I had been summoned to
many death-beds in my life, but to none
that made my heart ache as it did theb,
since my mother ailed me to watch the de
parture of a spirit akin to this in its gentle.
ness and patient strength. As I went in,
John stretched out both hands :
"I knew you'd come! I guess I'm mov
ing on, ma'am."
He was ; so rapidly that, even while he
spoke, over his taco I saw the grey veil fall
ing that no human hand can lift. I sat
down by him, wiped the drops from hi,-
forehead, stirred the air about him with the
slow wave of a fan, and waited to help him
die. He stood in sore need of help,—and I
could do so little ; tor, as the doctor had
foretold, the strong body rebelled again t
death, and fought every inch of the way,
forcing him to draw each breath with-a
spasm, and clench his hands with an im„
ploring look, as if he asked : "How long
must. I endure this, and be still ?" For
hours he suffered dumbly, without a mo
ment's respite, or a moment's murmuring :
his limbs grew cold, his face damp, his lip+
white, and again and again, he tore the cov
ering off his breast, as if the lightest weigh'
added to his agony ; yet - through it all, his
eyes never lost their perfect serenity, and
the man's soul seemed to sit therein, un
daunted by the ills that vexed him.
One by one the men woke, and around
the room appeared a circle of pale faces and
watchful eyes, full of awe and pity ; for
though a stranger, John beloved by all.
Each man there had wondered at his pa.
tience, respected his piety, admired his for
titude, and now lamented his hard death ;
for the influence of an upright nature had
made itself deeply felt, even in one little
week. Presently, the Jonathan who so
loved this comely David, came creeping
from his bed for a last look and word. The
kind soil was full of trouble, as the choke
in bis voice, the grasp of his hand, betray
ed; but there were no tears, and the fare
well of the friends was the more touching
for Its brevity.
"Old boy, bow are yon ?" faltered ~the
one.
"Most through, thank heaven !" whisper
ed the other.
`Can I say or Flo anything for you any
wheres ?"
`Take my things home, and tell them
that I did my best."
"I will ! I will !"
"Good bye, Ned."
"Good bye, John,ltood bye!"
They kissed each other, tenderly as wom
en, and so parted, for poor Ned could not
stay to see his comrade die. For a - little
while, there was no sound in the room but
the drip orwater, from a stump or two, and
John's distressful gasps, as he slowly
breathed his life away. I thought him
nearly gone, and had just laid down the fan,
believing its help to be no ledger needed,
when suddenly he rose up in his bed, and
cried out with a bitter cry that broke the
silence, sharply startling every one with its
agonized appeal :
"?..r God's sake, give me air!" •
It was the only cry or pain death had
wrung from him, the only boon he had ask
ed ; and none of us could grant it, for all
the airs that blew were useless now. Dan
flung up the window. The first red streak
of dawn was warming the grey east, a her
ald of the coming sun ;John saw it, and
with the love of light Which lingers in us It)
the end, seemed to reedit In a sign of hope
of help, for over his whole face there broke
that mysteirous expression, brighter than
any smile, which often comes to eyes that
look their last. He laid gently down ; and,
stretching out his right arm, as if to grasp
and bring the blessed air to his lips in a full
er flow, lapsed into a merciful unconscioud
ness, which assured us that for him suffer
ing was forever pist. He,died then; for
though the heavy breaths still tore their
way up a little longer, they were but the.
waves of an ebbing tide that beat unfelt
against the wreck, which an immortal voy
ager had deserted with a smile. He never
spoke again; but to the end held my hand
close, so close that when he was asleep at
last, I could not draw it away. Dan helped
me, warning me as be did so that it was no=
safe for dead and living flesh to lie so long
together; but though my hand was strange
ly cold and stiff, and four white marks re
mained across its badk, even when warmth
and color had returned elsewhere, I could
not but be glad that, through its touch, tin;
presence of human sympathy, perhaps, had
lightened that hard hour.
When they had made him ready for the
grave, John lay in state for half an hour, a
thing which seldom happened In that busy
place ; but a universal sentiment of rever
ence and affection seemed to fill the hearts
of all who had - known or - heard of him ; and
when the rumor of his death went through
the honse,idtrays witir, many came to see
himoutd I - felt as tender sort of pride in' my
lost - pstkint, for be looked a most heroic
figure, lying there stately sad still as the
statue of some young knight asleep uplit
his tomb. The lovely impudent which So
often beautifies dead hoes, soon replaced the
marks of pain, and I longed for those who
lovedlim best to see him when halt- an
hour's acquaintance with death had made
them friends. As we stood looking at blur,
the ward-master handed me a letter, saying
it had been forgotten the night before. It,
was John's letter; come just an hour too
late to gladden the eyes that had longed sad

THE TOIINE PtIETHAATEE.
Abraham Lincoln was once postmaster in
the small village of New Salem "out West."
lie then went to Springfield to study law,
and for years had hard work to earn his
bread and butter. Fighting with povert,y is
a hard tight. One day a post-office agent
came around to collect a balance duo the
Washington office from the New Salem of-
flee. The bill was 17.60. Dr. Henry, a
friend of "poor Abe" happened to fail In
with the agent, and was as sure as could be
that he had nothing in his pockets to pay
It with. He went,,therefore, to the office,
in order to lend him the money, or offer to
lend it.
When the agent presented the draft, Lin
coln asked the man to set down, and sat
down himself, with a very puzzling look
upon his face. Ho then stepped out, went
over to his boarding house, and came back
with an old stocking under his arm. This
he untied, and poured out - upon the table a
quantity of small silver coin and "red
cents." These they counted, exactly $17.-
60, just the amount called for ; and, more
over, it wus the eery money called for,
for on leaving the office, the young
postmaster tied up the 'money, and had
kept it by him, awaiting the legal call to
give it up.
On paying it over, "I never use," said be
"even fora time any money that Isnotmint•.
This money, I knew, belonged to thesgov
ernment, and I had no right, to exchange
or use It for any purpose of my own."
That is the right and true ground to take.
If the money is entrusted to your care, nev
er use it. I am not now talking about
cheating or stealing, but taking and using
money with the inecntion of returning it.
Money in trust should always be kept apart
from all your own business, and held sa
cred. By neglecting this, and not making
good 'the deficiency when pay-day
came, many a man has lost the confidence
of his fellow men, and damaged his integ
rity beyond repair. There seems, indeed
no harm in Just using it. It is easier, per
haps, to use than to keep. It ; easier
enough, too, one may think, to make it
good when called for. All thialhows how
naturally one can slide into lOose habits.
If anybody had a good excuse for using
17.60 of government money, Mr. Lincoln
had when he was a poor law student. Oh,
it would have come in so "pat" many and
many a time. But no That is a place
to stand by. No, boys. No, no! the
strictest integrity, and not a jot less.
Too MUOR TURKEY.—Friend "Jerry" is a
g•xxl natured, civil fellow, who attends to
his business and provides well for his fam
ily, but has one little failing, in this, that
when he goes to his home in the suburbs at
night, he is usually more or less under the
influence of contraband fluids. One night,
a little after dark, he started for home with
a nice little Turkey, safely done up in a
strong wrapping-paper, under his arm.—
"Jerry" found the road from the station to
his pretty cottage, some half mile distant,
uncommonly rough that night. He several
times stumbled and fell over all saris of ob
structions in the path. Each time he fell
be dropped his turkey, but contrived to
pick it up again. " On entering his house,
tie steadied himself as well as he was able,
and said to his wife :
Here, witey, I've got, 'Leven turkeys au'
you."
"Eleven turkeys, Jerry: What do you
mean ? There's only one."
"There must be leiee turkeys, wifey, for
I fell down leven times, and every time I
found a turkey. There must be leven tur
keys." -
A DAVENPORT (Iowa) paper tells of a
singular case of superstition "Chatting
with an aged lady, we [loafed the wonder
ful preservation and beauty of her teeth,
and could not refrain from mentioning it.
`Yes,' said she, 'I never had a toothache or
lost a tooth, because I bit the snake.' On
inquiry, she stated that, when children at
home, their father had made them bite a
rattlesnake, he holding the reptile by the
bead and tail ; each child bit along the en
tire length of the backbone, not violently,
but just so as to Indent the skin ; and this
was considered an infallible recipe against
toothache and decay, which the old lady
believes up to the present time." -
NAS/IT 4 from the obscure retreat of an
Ohio country tavern, welcomes the new
candidate of the Democracy thus heartily :
"George H. Pendleton is the ntuithin's hope.

"Is my face dirty ?" remarked a young

"Is Mrs. Blinking at home!" asked Mr.
