DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE
When the misguided and imprudeut votary of
pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-timed sense of shame or dread of discovery de
ters him from applying to those who, from educa
tion and respectability, can alone befriend him,
delaying till the constitattemal symptoms of this
horrid disease makes their. ap --pptuiv, such as

It is a melancholy fact, that thousands DIE vic
tims to this terrible disease, through failing into
the hands of Jgnorant or UnskJfiful PRETEND
ERS, who by the use of thattleadly Poison, Mer

MEASURING THE BART
By S3CILA ALIBI BROWNS.
We measured the riotous baby.
I -&lPtlost the cottage Wa—
A lily grew at the threshold,
And the boy was Just as tall !
A royal tiger-WY,
With spots of purple and gold,
end a heart like a jewelled chalice
The fragrant dew td bold.
Without, the bluebints whistled
High up in the old roof-trees,
And to and fro at the window
The red rose rocked her bees,
And . the wee pink lists of the baby
Were never a moment still,
Snatching at shine and shadow
That danced on the lattice sill
His eyes were wide as blueballs—
His mouth like a flower unblown—
Two little bare feet, like funny white mice
raped out from his snowy gown ; -
And we thought, with a thrill of rapture
That yet had a touch of pain,
When June rolls aroma(' with her roses,
We'll measure the bOy again.
Ah met In a darkened chamber,
With the sunshine shut away,
Through the tears that fell like a bitter rain.
We measured the boy to-day;
And the little bare feet, that were dimpled
And sweet as the budding rose.
:Lay side by together,
In the hush of a long repose
Up from the dainty pilkiw o
, White as the risen dawn,
The fair little faee lay smiling,
With the light of heave!' thereon—
And the dear little hands, like rose-leaves
Dropped from a rose, lay still,
Never to snatch ape sunshine
That crept to thelitrotuted sill?
We measured the sleeping baby
With ribbons white as snow,
For the shining rosewood casket
flat waited him below;
And out of the darkened cham (ler
We went with a childless moan—
To the height of the sinless angels
Our little one had grown!
It-was in the reign of Edward the*Third,
and at a time of temporary rebellion
against the monarch and his valiant son,
the Prince of Wales, that our tale opens.
The scene was a .beantiful picturesque
part of the country in Berkshire; and the
charming Barbara Claxton—the dream
ing, enthusiastic admirer of genius, sat
beside her lonely cottage doc,r, watching
the shadows deepen and darken as twi
light approached. Her reveries were dis
turbed by a stranger appearing in breath
leas haste.
"Hide me, &nisei," he exclaimed. "for
the lore of Heaven! quick—my foes are ap
proaching:"
For an instant Barbara scanned the noble
features, and well knit form of the sup
pliant.
"Follow," she replied, "there is but one
Place wherein there is the least vestige of
security. -
And she led him into the cottage, into
an inner room, where, prostrated on a bed
of pain, lay a sick wornma.
"I will lift my grandmother up." she
said hurriedly; "and yot mast get be
tween the beds underneath her. It will
be very warm, but it is the only safe place.
I do net think they will disturb her."
He did as he was ordered; the bed was
spread down, and the old lady lay back on
her pillow, unconscious of the scene
which had just occurred. Barbara hasten
d back to the door, and sat down in her
old, place.
A
moment later, a party of horsemen
approached. They stopped; and the leader
cast a critical eye upon the lovely maiden.
"Surround the cottage my men," be or
'tiered, "and if he is here, we will soon un
earth him. Now my dreaming lassie,"
(addressing himself to the girl) "have you
seen anything of a stray?"
She looked up shyly, the color fluctuat
ing on her cheeks as,. she returned, "A
stray, sir?" in meek tones. "No sane
man would stray hither."
"But he must be somewhere near here;
and by your permission, rosebud, I- will
search the house," he observed.
"If you only please sir, to request your
men to cease their noise. My poorgrand
mother is sick and dying."
The officer's heart, though stained by
guilt and bloodshed, was tender where
youth and beauty were the suppliants.—
He ordered his men to be quiet, and then
entered with the trembling Barbara, who,
though trying outward to appear calm and
unconcerned, was inwardly thrilling with
fear. What if he should find the fugitive!
She only knew too well that the" blood
thirsty ruffians would instantly kill her on
the spot, - or perhaps reserve her for a fate
worse than death!
When he entered, the officer cast a
quick, searching glance around him.—
There were but two rcibms in the cottage,
and he could see through the loose boards
above that no.one was hidden in the loft.
"Will you have a draught of ale, sir,"
she asked; pouring some of the fermented
beverage into a pewter mug.
He took it eagerly, and qtiaffed it; and
then passed into the inner room. The old
grandame was muttering deliriously, hav
ing been amused by the strange noises
outside. He went over to her, looked at
her an instant and said, "she'll be dead
'pretty soon; and you will have to come to
me, pretty lasi."
Barbara bowed low.
"You are too kind, air," she sa id , " to
one so horrible."
"Give me a kiss, my lass," he exclaim
ed, his rude eyes riveted upon her; "for I
must hurry - away from here before that
wretch gets too far in advance."
She drew back quickly, the hot blood
orimsoning her face and neck.
"No, nor' she cried, "no, no, sir!"
But he hurried after her.
"I will not be put aside by a pretty one;
I have no time to fool. Yon nre only too
ooy;" and fie grasped the straggling maid
en in her arms, and _kissed her over and
- over, despite her violent' reidstai m csi
will come again another day, my pre y
sweet-heart!" He laughed as he released
her, and passed out. Trerkbling with

he left her until she had heard the relizresi..

herself she bent to the door,' 'and found
there was nb one in sight; she then return
ed to the room, closing the Eluter door be

the stranger to escape from prison.
"My poor girl!" (and his face flushed),
"I know not what to say," as hi s eye f e n

to be only a respite. _ Have you a father?
Can you disguise me?"
The Bush died:out of her face, as she re
fietted how to save , ter strange guest.—
There was something about him that made
her feel instinctively that she could trust
him, and interested her in his fate.
- "No, my father is dead; we are all that
are left," pointing to- the emaciated form
in bed. "But I will give you my father's
clothes. You can dress in them, and I
will say you are my uncle from Yorkshire."
He fell readily into her plans; and she,
placing a bundle before him, retired into
the inner room. When she emerged, she
could scarcely recognize in the bowed, de
crepid old man, with a :silvery wig, the
handsome, manly, youthful stranger of a
few moments before.
Days passed, and still the stranger
lingered at the cottage. He was delighted
with Barbara's well informed mind, and
wondered how she had ever obtained so
much knowledge in that secluded country
district. But it seemed that her mother
had been much better educated than the
majority of her sex, and had taken great
pains with her daughter before she had
flied: and Barbara, being of an intelligent
'tu'n of mind, had thought and read inuai
CLEM
Days lengthened into weeks, and a
warmer feeling than that of friendship
sprang up between them. ' As yet, he had
not mentioned by what rank or title he
was known.
"I must leave you now, sweetheart," he
said, throwing hiniself down beside her
one day; "but I cannot go away content
until you'give me the right to return.—
Will you, Barbara, my love, my life, come
to the church," he pleaded, "and let the
priest solemnize our, vows, and I will de
part happy? Will you, Barbara, dearest?"
What could she say? She had risked
her life' for him once—she would willingly
sacrifice all now. Led on by his words
she could not resist him, but blindly, de
votedly followed bird to the altar.
What he whispered to the priest ere the
ceremony took place, she did not catch
with her ear. .
"You will not, my love, my sweetheart,"
he said, "fault, me because I have not re
vealed my rank? When I come again, I
will come as one worthy to receive you."
lle kissed her pale cheek, and quivering
lips over and over again as he left her, and
had turned his back to the little cottage.
Months passed by before she ever heard
from her lover-husband, and she feared he
must have fallen info the hands of his
foes.
He came at last, a star glittering on his
breast, and his array kingly. Her heart
fell within her as he hastened to her with
out-stretched arms.
"Barbara, my love, — be cried, folding
her to his breast, `•l:have come at last!
But w•hy do you shrink? Are you not my
own true love still?" ,
"Arc are you —7 sho queried.
"Edward to you, to the world the Prince
of Wales, the heir to the throne," he said.
"They were seeking My life—the rebels!
But why do you look pale? I have made
up my mind to forsake ail for you, dear
est."
"But the princess?" she cried. "All
England knows of your approaching mar
riage."
will not have her," he ejaculated
sternly. "I will resign all pretensions to
the throne, and fly with you."
For a moment the bliss of being once
more within the arms :of her beloved, in
toxicated her sense; hut then her resoles
tion was taken
"My lord,—
"Hush, Barbara!". And-he placed his
finger on her lip. "L cannot have so
much formality, from 'your lips. I am
still only Edward you saved and loved:"
"Then my beloved,'" she cried, "you
cannot, do not doubt the fullness of my
love—the love that would only too gladly
this moment give mg life to preserve
yours "
Cl=l
"I do not doubt it, my sweetheart," he
returued.
"Then, oh believe what I say i s only
prompted by that love.. Tou must leave
me, my life; you must
,go back to your
father's palace and obey his commands.
Our secret shall ever be faithfully locked
in my breast; my last "breath shall be
drawn in supplicating a , blessing on my
prince—my king."
"Never!" he exclaimed, gazing on the
slight, exquisite form of his beloved that
was even now trembling with emotion.
"But it must be.so. Edward, my love,
listen! Go—go to a happy future; do not
blight your own precious life as well as
mine. Go and in othei days you will
think upon and bless the• love of Barbara
Claxton."
Hs was silent for a molinent; her words
fell with full force upon his heart; she
spoke the truth; but the struggle was too
great to endure quietly, and he wept like
a child.
"Your wisdom is greater than mine,
Barbara," he cried in hoarse voice; "you
are more worthy of rubies. Oh cursed
fate that divides the piasant from the
prince. Barbara, be merciful!"
"I am merciful, my lifet" she cried, her
cheeks glowing with passionate love;
"more merciful to you than you are your
self. Do you not know that this renunci
ation is costing me more, than my life?
Go; be happy, be brave; be good, be
great; and sometimes think of your Bar
bara Claxton."
He tarried until his horse chafed with
restlessness, and his servants became im
patient.
"I accept my destiny," he said, bowing
his head; "you have prevailed. I live no
longer for myself, but for my people.—
God bless you for ever, and when you
need a friend come to Edward."
Uer emotion was equal to his own, and
she turned away and wept unrestrainedly.
She had given her all up freely.:
Time passed on. Often, news of the
Black Prince's prowess fell upon her ears;
she never heard hisname but it was link
ed with bravery or goodness; the nation
revered him.
The old grandame died. Barbara,
whose beauty became each day more
artiking, waa let alone. She sent a pe-
tition to the Prince.
"A consul of mine, friendless, forsaken,
craves a situation as page, messenger, or
in some post pear your highness. In re-
raemberance of the past, I pray, grant
this muest of your faithful -
rtpui,uu. CLAXTON."
Perhaps gdward divined her meaning;
perhaps It was only olden memories that
shook bim; Ing he trembled strangely as
he dictated the following, ind signed it
edfor an instant on the beautiful con
tour of the noble face, theblack, clustering
curls, and the gray, lovely, dreamy eyes,
shaodwed by their heavy black lashes, and
sighed.
"Rise; the Prince is thy friend," he
said, in an unsteady voice, as he laid • his
hand on the bowed head.
The touch thrilled him through like a
magnetic- shock.
"I go to the wars," he continued "I
must leave you behind me."
"No, No!" cried the youth, impulsively.
"Let me go with your highness. I can
endure hardship, brave dinger—sell my
life, if need be—only let me go.
How could he resist! The memory of
the past was strong within him.
"Yon shall go, "
. he said kindly. "And
if you repent, you shall return bete."
Ever after that the youth was the brave
Prince's shadow. He followed him
through danger and through victory.—
Ever near, ever sad, never smiling. Oft
the Prince tried to turn his thoughts to
something that would cheer him, but
everything failed. He grew more delicate.
more softly beautiful, each day; but it was
in vain the Prince urged him to return to
the palace, and await his coning home.
"My place is by your side, my prince,"
he would return, "and my only happiness
is there. Surely you will not deprive me
of that."
At last, just as the Prince's army had
gained a great victory over the French
one of the retreating foe turned deliber
ately, took aim at the Prince, and then
fled. His page-saw it, and interposed be
fore the Prince, and received the arrow in
his own breast. He fell backward in his
master's arms, looked into his eyes with a
smile, as the life-blood streamed down his
breast, and murmured, "I die happy? Oh,
my beloved, remember that Barbara Clax
ton has given her life for thee."
"Barbara, my Barbara!" he cried, hold
ing her in a close embrace, "would I had
died for thee!"
The weary eyelids dosed; there was a
faint fluttering of he'r breath, a smile
which remained after death, and she was
dead! The Prince bathed her face in
tears, and the attendents said, 'See how
strong is his affection for that youth."
He returned to England, but his health
began perceptibly to fail; the same arrow
which pierced poor, faithful Barbara Clan_
ton's heart had reached his own, in a dif
ferent
way. He sank, declined, faded
away, and died on the Bth of June, 1376.
The nation was in mourning for the good
Prince, for all loved him for his unsullied
purity, and England missed having one of
the best and purest of monarchs to sit on
. ier throne.
PAUL JASON'S MARK
A STORY OF COLORADO
The overland mail coach was dragging
its way slowly along through the blinding
and drifting snow over the vast plains of
Colorado. It had reached a point or
raiiche, then known as Pole Creek Ranche,
situated upon the southern bank of the
Platte River, perhaps forty or fifty miles
above Fort Sedgwiok,
When it halted, darkness had fully set
in. The rancheman came out with his
light, and weary passengers were about to
leave their cramped position, when that
terrible sound, the war-hoop of the Sioux,
broke the stillness of the night; mut an
instant after, fifty dusky forms were seen
dashing to and fro, brandishing their
tomahawks, and cutting down all who
Icame in their way.
The coach had been crowded with pas
sengers, about half of whom were women.
There were two infants in the party.
Fathers fought desperately; but they
fell, although they sold their lives dearly.
The guard appeared almost invincible; but
they were only two in number, and they
did not long survive. The ranchemen
proved themselves no cowards; but they,
too, were soon numbered with the dead.
Then came the firing of the ranche, af
ter barrels of whiskey had been brought
out; and one of those horrible scenes of
revelry over the burning pile and around
the scalped dead followed.
For some time after the coach had left
Fort Sedgwick Station, it had been closely
followed by a team, consisting If a com
mon wagon, covered with canvas, which
was drawn by a pair of mules. But as
the road became heavier with snow drifts,
the small animals could not keep pace with
the six fine stage horses, and so they iyere
left in the back ground.
This second wagon was occupied by
three persons—a man of twenty-five, a
woman who could not have been over sev
enteen or eighteen years of age, and an in.
font.
As they found that they could not keep
pace with the stage, the woman said, aid
rather impatiently:
"I am sorry we must be left behind.
We may loose our way, or be attacked by
the savages."
"No," replied the man, "for although
we are both strangers in this country, we
could not have a better guide than the
telegraph poles. And as for the Indians
attacking us, they are a great deal more
likely, in my opinion, to be on the lookout
Ibr the stage, and attack it."
"How much further do we have to go
to-day?"
."I can't well tell. But from the dis
tance we had to travel at noon, I should
say that nine o'clock in the evening ought
to bring us to the Pole Creek."
"And three days more will bring us to
our father's house in Deaver. Good old
man, weary of hunting, he builds a fine
dwelling in the city, says it is fbr his child
ren, and sends for us. I have not seen him
since I was a little child, but I am quite
sure I shall love him."
It was something like an hour after
darkness had set in that the_lonely trav
elers saw the air becomibg red before
them. Brighter and brighter grew the
flames as they shot up into the mow-filled
atmosphere. Then a nearer approach re
vealed the true state of affairs; and to save
himself and family, the young man at
once turned the heads of his mules over
the bluffs and away from the river. Then
came a weary ride of two hours, during
which time a close lookout was kept for a
light. At length one was disoovered, and,,
nearing it, the party found themselves at
the foot of a steep bluff sr mountain, and
which unlike the other portions Hof they
country, appeared to be very thickly

the snow was soft.. Neither could he well
be seen, for the snow which covered his en
tire person rendered him of the same color
as everything around. And yethe heard a
dog growl, and then a voice say: .
"Keep yer
.distance, Injin. Pete an'
me is just as ready for a scrimmage as we
was this afternoon. Keep yer distance."
"I am not an Indian, but a benighted
traveler," returned the young man. "J
saw this light, and I did not know but it
proceeded from the fire in some white set
tler's cabin."
"I knew Pete didn't smell Injin, or he'd
be making a bigger fuse than that. But
wait, an' I'll be thar an' show you the
way inter my Serbasterpool."
In a moment the hunter stood by the
side of the young man, and bending close
to his face, he appeared to be satisfied.
The dog had his smell, and agreed with
his master that the matter was all right.
A few words of explanation passed, and
the old hunter exclaimed:
"Oh! got a wife an' baby, eh? Lord
love 'em! we can't leave 'em down thar
freezin'!"
And away he went down the hill at such
a rapid rate that the traveler found it im
possible to keep pace with him. When he
did arrive, ho found that his mules had
been fed with the remainder of the pro.
vender left in the wagon, and that the old
man was returning, carrying the baby in
his arms, and conducting the wife.
The warm fire was reached. It was
built just outside a small cave, and sur
rounded by sharp, broken rocks, which
had evidently fallenfrom above.
The travelers told their story of the
burning ranche; and then the old man
stated that he had been chased into Fre
mont's Butte, (the name of this peak,) and
had fought with the Indians from his pres
ent position only a few hours before. He
then added:
"I believe that there's lot of 'em akul
kin' around yet. At all events, I think
it's best to wait here for a short time, just
to see what will turn up. Are you afeerd
of fire, stranger ?"
"When they attack us, you may judge
for yourself," answered the young man,
smiling.
"That's good. You've brought blan
kets—lie down an' sleep, an' I'll do the
same. Pete, my dog, here, can smell an
Injin a mile off. He'll give the alarm i
thar's any danger."
The travelers were weary, and they
slept soundly, warmed as they were by
the cheering fire. But near daylight they
were aroused by the furious barking of the
dog. The young man sprang to his feet
and seized his rifle and his revolvers. Re
found the old hunter already up, who lev
eled his rile and fired into the rocks above,
and immediately a savage came whirling
through the air, uttering wild yells, and
fell into the very centre of the hunter's
stronghold. The dog immediately seized
him as he would have done a rat, and
Shook him until the wretch ceased to
struggle or groan.
Occasionally a savage head would ap
pear above the rocks, and a shot from the
old man's gun was sure to crack the
cranium of the redskin so venturing. At
every shot the hunter would say:
"There's old raul'a mark for you."
Presently there came a series of un
earthly yells, and not less than twenty
savages came tearing over the rocs, into
the circle. The hnnter shouted:
"Club your rifle, stranger—light like the
devil—now's your time!" and ise/set the
example by commencing the attack in a
furious manner.
Not less than half a dozen of the red
skins fell under his terrible blows, and
then he looked around him in evident sur
prise that there was no longer a foe to
fight. He there saw over twenty dead
bodies before him.
"How is this, stranger 2" he said, look
ing at the dead Sioux.
"The work of my revolver," quietly re
sponded the young man.
"Oh !then you've got a brace of six-shoot-
No, one seven- and one seeventeen
shooter."
"Thunder! Let's start et once. We'll
face all the redskins we meet in Colo
rado."
The party left their stronghold, when
another fight took place with some twen
ty other savages, half of their number
falling. The others, hearing the shots
continue, believed that they were attack
ed by overwhelming numbers and fled.
The old man loaded his rifle, and made a,
List shot at a savage who could not have
been less than twelve hundred yards off.
The Indian fell and the hunter exclaimed:
"There's old Paul's mark again."
"What is your other name ?" asked
the lady traveller, approaching him.
"Paul Jason is my name, please ye,
ma'am."
"Then there's Lucy Morton's mark!"
throwing her arms around the neck of the
old hunter, and kissing his bronzed lips.
The hunter started back, ribbed his
eyes, and then, catching her by the hands,
he cried:
"No, no. You don't mean to say that
you are my little Lucy, that was married
to a man named Charley Morton, what's
got a baby an' comin' out to Denver to
live in my new brick house."
"Yes, lam the same." '
The old hunter embraced his child, kiss
ed the baby fifty times, and then, turning
to Charley, he said, 8s he took him by
both hands:
"By • thunder, stringer—no, I mean
Charley—if my Lucy hadn't married you,
I never would have forgiven her, fbr you're
jest about the bravest little chap, an' the
best Injin fighter, for a greenhorn, that I
ever did see. By thunder, but I shall be
proud of you!"
The mules had not been molested, and
the balance of the journey to Denver was
performed in safety. And the old man
never was happier than when introducing
his son-in-law, and telling of their great
Indian fight, always making (Marley the
hero.
A yourio miuuma, on the important oc
casion of making her little boy his first
pair of trousers, conceived the idea that it
would be more economical to make them
of the same dimensions behind and be
fore, so that they might be changed about
and wear evenly. Their effect, when don
ned by the little fellow, was very ridicul
ous. Papa, at first sight of the baggy
garment, burit into .a roar of laughter,
and exclaimed, "Oh, my dear, haw could
you have the heart to do it? 'Why, the
poor little fellow won't know whether he's
going to school or coming home."
Boxs wags took a drukiken fellow, plac
ed him in a coffin • with the lid so that he
'could lake it, placed him ins grave-yard,
and wilted to see the effort. Allier a shol t
time the times of the liquor left him, and
his position being rather confined, he sat

THE CHINESE SHOEMAKERS' AT rum
Tnar.—The Boston Advertiser admits
that most Catholic views of the equality
of race, the heartiest admiration for a peo
ple universally educated, the warmest
liking for strangers so cheerful-and affable,
and easily_ taught as these young men,
all receive a shock at the sight of the
Chinese colony dinner. So strong i s
prejudice in this cricial point of civillza
lation. There is nothing intrinsically of.
fensive about chop-sticks. The chop.
sticks, themselves, tied together in a
bundle, or displayed singly as curiosities
on a what-not, are harmless and rather
interesting articles. But behold three or
four-score Chinamen grouped on benches
about a dozen small tables. Each holds
in his left hand,• close up to his face, a
bowl of rice. In the other hand, held be-.
tween the fingers like the bones of a ne
gro minstrelsy, are the pair of ehop.sticks;
and these poke the rice over the, edge of
the bowl into the waiting month with a
rapidity which shows great dexterity, but
is somehow extremely unpleasant to look
upon. A platter of meat sits in the cen
ter of the table, its contents on this or
casion being lobster, chopped fine, an im
portation from China. Into this ern chop
sticks of each are plunged at interlala, to
vary the monotony of the rise with - a
choicer morsel. When the bowls are
empty—which is in about six to eight
cu)uutes from the beginning of the repast—
! each Chinaman leaps from his bench and
hurries to the kitchen, not to put the
crockery away, as I first imagined, but to
bring it back full of fragrant tea. And
here the bitterest prejudice against the
Celestial manner of supplying the wants
of the inner man must pause to acknowl
edge the superlative quality of this bever
age, brought direct from China and prepar
ed in the Chinese way, which has a smooth
ness of taste and delicious flavor, rarely to
be tnatched on Yankee tables. After all,
perhaps, we should get the Chinese opin
ion of a meal at a Boston boarding-home
before venturing to pronounce judgment,
but prejudice is strong, and as I have
hinted, he who has a grain of fastidiousness
in his oompOsition, and who would cheriah
the highest theory of oriental civilisation,
should read with the Chinese, study with
there, but by all means decline an invita
tion to sit down to dinner with them.

Sornaornius, a wise teacher, would not
suffer his grown up sons and daughters tub
associate with those whose conduct was
not pure and upright. "Dear father,"
said the gentle Eulalia to him one day,
when he forbade her, in company with her
brother, to visit the volatile Lucinda,
"you must think us very childish if you
imagine that we would be exposed to
pr by it." The father took in silence a
dead coal from the hearth, and reached it
to his daughter. "It will not burn you,
my child, take it." She did so, and be

and blackened, and her dress soiled too.
