CAN THERE BE HARM IN KISSING?
The waters kiss the pebbly shore;
The winds all kiss the lulls;
The sunbeams kiss the tulip bud
For the odor it distills.
The dewdrops kiss the rose nt morn,
Tha,cerous dew at eve;
The feria and flower, in circling clasp,
Their mystic beauties weaVe:
The moonbeams kiss the elands at night ;
' The star gems kiss the sea;
While shadows dreamy, soft, and light,
Aro kissing on the lea.
The zephyrs kiss the buddhig pink
That blooms on beauty's lip,
And ruder blasts, though cold and chill,
•
Its ruby nectar ejp.
The winds, the waves, the budding flowers,
The laughing, merry rills,
Are kissing all from morn till eve,
And clouds still kiss the hills.
Even heaven and earth do meet to kiss
Through tears of sparkling dew.
In kissing, then, can there be harm?
I don't think so—do you ?
A FEARFUL ADVENTURE.
I was a medical student in Paris at
the time the strange and startling ad
venture happened which I 'am about
to record. Tired with long lectures
and hard study, I was out ono even
ing for a walk in the fresh air. It was
a pleasant night in mid-winter, and
the cold, bracing air, as it touched my
feverish brow, caused a grateful sensa
tion.
Passing through a rather lonely
street near the river, I was surprised
at meeting a young and pretty girl (at
least so she appeared in the dim light
of a rather
.distant street lamp,) who
carried in her hand some three or four
limpets, which she off•'ered for sale.
"Will monsieur hare a boquet?" she
asked, in a sweet, musical tuna, hold
ing out to me a well•arranged collec
tion of beautiful flowers.
"They are very pretty," said I, ta
king them in my hand; and then, some
how, I could not help adding, as I fix
ed my eyes upon hers: "and so, I think,
is their lair owner."
"Monsieur will buy and assist me?"
she said.
PIISLADELUIIIA, PA.
"Do you then really need assistance,
mademoiselle?"
"Why eke should I be hore at this
hour of the night, monsieur?"
"And why here at all ?" quickly re
turned I. "This street is little fre•
quested, and is about the last in the
world I should have selected for dispo
sing of a luxury most suited to wealth
and fashion."
She sighed, and reached out her
land for the baguet which I still ro
ained.
"What is your price ?" said I.
"Five francs."
"A largo sum."
"Monsieur will remember it is Win
ter, and flowers are not. plenty."
"To aid you I will purchase," re
turned I, handing her the requisite sil
ver coin ; "for though I love flowers, I
would otherwise hardly indulge in the
luxury to-night at such an expense."
Sho thanked me, and seemed about
to pass'on, but hesitated, looked up to
me, and said :
"Could monsieur direct me to the
house of a good physician, who will
turn out to-night and see a patient at
a small recompense?"
"Any friend of yours ill 7"
"My mother !" with a deep sigh and
downcast look.
"Where does she reside?"
"Only a short distance from here."
"What is the matter with her ?"
"She has a high fever for ono thing."
"When was she taken ?"
"She came down last night, and has
not left her bed since." _
"Why did you not send fora doctor
at once ?"
'•\Ve. hoped she would get better
soon, and it is so expensive- for poor
people to employ a physician."
"I am myself a medical student,
with considerable experience among
the sick of the hospitals, and if you
are disposed to ti ust the ease to me, I
um at your service without charge," I
replied, already feeling deeply interes

"Oh, how shall I.thank Monsieur I"
she exclaimed, with clasped hands, and
an upward grateful look. "Pray fol

Sho turned at once, and moved off
at a rapid pace down the street, to

I was walking when we niet.
In loss than five minutes we had en
tered a wretched quarter, among nar
row streets, old tottering buildings,
and squalid looking inhn.bitants, some
of whom seemed to glare at us as we
passed along.
"Is it much farther ?" inquired I,
beginning to feel uneasy.
"Only a step, Monsieur. It is just
here."
Almost immediately she turned into
a covered passage, which led in back
among habitations that I should never
have voluntarily visited in the broad
,light of day. A distant lamp served
to make the gloom visible, till sudden
ly she stopped and opened a dOor into
total darkness.
"Tour hand, monsieur lo Docteur,"
she said, at the same time taking it
and leading me forward.
I was tempted to draw back and re

"Is it possible you live in a place
like this ?" said I, secretly wishing my
self' well out of it.
- "In Paris beggars cannot be chosers,"
replied the girl.
"But oven in Paris it is not neces
sary fur the living to take up their
abodes in sepulchres!" I rejoined with
some asperity, being vexed at myself
for suffering my good nature to lead
me into
,a den from which Imight nev
er come out alive.
To this my guide deigned no reply.
On . reaching tho foot of tho stairs, she
pushed open a door, into a small dimly
lighted room, and I. followed her into
it with some secret misgivings.' There
was a bed in one corner, and on it ap
peared to be a human form lying very
still.
"I have brought a doctor, mother,"
said the girl, as she closed the door
behind me. As there was no reply to
this she turned to me, saying:
"Will Monsieur le Docteur pledse to
be seated a minute. I think my moth
er is asleep."
"I. beg mademoiselle will bear in
miiid that I can only spare a few mo
ments in this case to-night, as I have
another call I wish to make immedi
ately," I returned, feeling very anx
bus to depart from the subterranean
quarter as quick as possible.
"Monsieur shall not be long detained
by me," rejoined the girl, passing out
of the room by another door.
I did not sit down, but' walked over
to the bed, where the patient was ly
ing very • still—so still indeed that I
could not detect any breathing. A
woman's cap was on the head and the
end of a sheet concealed the face. I
ventured to turn this down carefully,
and beheld the eyeless sockets and
grinning teeth of a human skull.
- I started back in horror and at the
same moment the door by which the
girl had left was thrown open, and in
marched, one after the other, four tall
human figures, in black gowns and
masks. I know at once, then, that I
was to be robbed, and probably mur
dered. I wore a heavy diamond On
and.ring, carried a very valuable gold
watch, and had in money about my
person sortie five hundred francs, but
not a single weapon of any kiud. Re
sistance being therethre out. of the
question, I felt that thy only chance—
it, indeed, there were indeed a chance
—was to conciliate the ruffians and buy
myself oft With a presence of mind,
lor which I still take to myself consid
erable credit, I said at once:
"I understand it all, gentlemen, and
you will find me a very liberal person
to deal with. There is one thing I
value very highly, because it is the
only one I have, and I cannot replace
it—that is my life. Everything else
of mine is at your service, eve❑ be
yond.what I have with me."
They were undoubtedly surprised to
war mo speak in that cool, off-hand
manner; but they marched forward
Ind surrounded me before either re
turned a word.
"How much have you with you,
then ?" inquired one, in a civil way,
but in' a low gruff tone.
I immediately mentioned the differ
ent articles of value and the exact
amount of money.
"All of which I shall be pleased to
present you with, if one of you will be
kind enough to escort me to the street
above," I added,
"You said you had more monsieur."
"Yes, gentlemen, I have ton thou
sand francs in the bank of France, and
I will willing add a check for half that
amount."
"Checks don't servo our purposes
very well," said a second voice.
"Then I pledge you my honor that
I will, to morrow, draw out fivo thou
sand francs, and pay the amount over
to any person who may approach me
with this boquet in his hand," said I,
holding out the flowers I had purchas
ed of the fair decoy.
"And have him arrested the next
minute I suppose."
"No, on my honor, he shall depart
unharmed and unquestioned; and no
other human being shall be informed
of the transaction for a week, a month
or a year."
'Let us first handle what you have
here," said the first speaker.
I immediately took out my pin,
took off my ring, drew out my watch,
and placed them all in his extended
hand.
"You make us a present of these,
now 7" he said.
"Yes, on condition that one of you
will forthwith conduct me to the street,
above," I replied.
"Monsieur ie a very liberal gentle
man ? Eh, comrades r said the mask,
turtling to the others.
"A very liberal gentleman, indeed !"
was the response.
They thon drew off together, scruti
nized the articles by the light of a smo
ky. lamp, and conversed together in
low tones. I felt that they were hold
ing a consultation that involved my
life, and, to speak the honest truth, h
seemed as if every nerve in me quiver
ed ; and it was with difficulty 1 could
stand.
At length the principal spokesman
turned to mo and said, in a very cool
and methodical manner:
"Monsieur has acted more like a gen
tleman than any other person we ever
had dealings with, and 'if we could,
consistent with our business, oblige
him, we should be happy to do so;
but unfortunately we are governed by
a rule, which is law with us, that dead
men tell no tales, and we think it will,
not do to make an exception in this
case. We will, however, in considera
tion of monsieur's gentlemanly behav
ior, be as mild and lenient as possible
in doing our duty, and grant monsieur
five minutes for saying his prayers."
"You have then resolved to murder
mo ?" gasped I.
"Men6iegr toes a very hard term,
TERMS, $2,00 a year in advance.
but we will lot that pass. You have
five'niinutes yet to live by this watch."
The villain then held my watch to
the light, and I felt indeed that my
minutes were numbered, and secretly
began to pray for the salvation of my
soul believing that I could not save my
body.
A death like silence now reigned in
that gloomy apartment for some time,
and then ono of the ruffians bent down
and lifted a trap-door, and from the
dark pit below issued a noisome smell,
as it might be of putrid bodies. I be
hold my intended grave, and shudder
ed and shook like an aspen.
But why stand there and die like a
dog,without a single attempt at escape?
At the-worst it could be but death and
there was a bare possibility that I
I
might get away. fixed my,eyes on
the door which opened on the stair
way, and with a single sudden bound
reached it, but found it fast locked.
Then, as the hands of tho ruffians seiz
od me with murderous intent, I utter
ed a Wilk shriek,. the door was burst
in with a loud crash, and in a moment
the room was filled with gend'armes.
I saw that I was saved, and fainted
and fell.
The four masks, the fair decoy, and
some two or three others concerned in
that murderous don, were all secured
that night, and E subsequently had the
pleasure of giving in my evidence
against them, and seeing them all con
demned to the galleys for life.
The _place had for sohie time been
suspected and the decoy marked. On
that night a detective had secretly fol
lowed the girl and myself, and after
ascertaining whither she had conduct
ed me, had hastened to bring a body
of gend'armes to this place. 'rho de
lay of the ruffians in their murderous
design, bad been just sufficient to save
me. I scarcely need add that I never
again volunteered to accompany a_dis
tressed damsel on a secret adventure
'while I remained in Paris.
THE POWER OF A WORD.-A mother
on the green hills of Vermont, was
holding by the right hand a son, six
teen years old, mad with the love of
the sea. As she stood by the garden
gate ono morning, she said : "Edward,
they tell me, for I never saw the ocean,
that the great temptation of the sea
man's life is drink. Promise me, be
fore you quit your mother's hand, that
you will never drink." "And," Said
ho, [for he told me the story,] I gave
her the promise, and I went the bread
globe over, Calcutta and the Mediter
ranean, San Francisco, the Cape of
Good Htipe, the North Pole and the
South. I saw them all in forty years,
and .1 never saw a glass filled with
sparkling liquor that, my mother's
form by the gate did not rise before me;
and to-day I am innocent of the taste
of liquor." Was not 'that sweet evi
dence of the rower of a single word ?
Yet that was not half. "For, said he,
"yesterday there came into my count
ing room a matt of about forty years
and asked me, "do you know me ?"
"No." "Well said he, "I was once
brought drunk into your presence on
shipboard; you were a passenger; the
captain kicked me aside; you took
me to your berth and kept mo there
till I had slept off the intoxication ;
you then asked me if I had a mother.
I said I had never known a word from
her lips. You told me of yours at the
garden gate, and today I am master
of one of the best packets in New York;
and I came to ask you to come and
see me.'" How far that little candle
throws its beams 1 That mother's word
on the green hills of Vermont! 0,
God be thanked for the mighty power
of a single word !
"No Pr ACE."—A great many boys
and young men complain there is no
chance for them. They cannot get
places. It is hard to find anything to
do. Perhaps it is hard to got just such
places as they like. That is not the
point, however. When' you got a
place—and there are places, this big
country I am sure has need of every
good boy and girl and man and wo•
man in it,—when you get a place, I
say, make yourself useful in, it; make
yourself necessary to employers, make
yourself so necessary by your fidelity
and good behaviour, that they cannot
do without you. Be willing to take a
low place at first, no matter whht the
work, if it be honest work. Do it well,
do it to the very best you can. Begin
at the lowest round of the ladder, and
climb up. The great want everywhere
is faithful, capable workers.
They are never a drug in market.—
M eke yourself ono of these, and there
will always be a place for you, and a
good ono too.
Said a rich merchant of a clerk in
his store,
'He has been so useful to us, we can't
let him go; his place cannot ho sup
plied. We must make him a partner.'
That's it boys.

Interesting about the Loousts.
Mr. Daniel Lehman, the messenger
at the York County National Bank, in
forms the editor of the True Democrat,
that the locusts made their appearance
iri 1817, on the 23d day of May—in
'1834, about the same time, and in 1851
on the 26th of May. He has ascer
tained the 'fact, too, that the most of
them are now about five inches below,
the surface of the earth, and their pro
tracted stay is attributable to the con
tinued wet weather. Many of them
have died in the ground on account of
the frequent rains, and we may justly
conclude that they will, by no means,
be as numerous as in former years.
In 1817, Mr. Lehman made the follow
ing experiment : Ho took some of the
small branches where the eggs bad
been deposited and wrapped them
'carefully up and laid them away and
did not open them until 1884, when
the locusts -made their appearance
again; and, then by the of a micro
scope, discovered that the eggs were
dead and -had never made the least
advance toward incubation. In that
year he put a quantity of the eggs in
a bottle and corked it_upand did not
examine its contents again until 1851,
when he found the results the same—
the 'eggs wore dead, and had made na
progress towardikhatehing.
from this it is well established that
the eggs of the locust must come in
contact with the earth before they will
advance towards life—that, the soil is
essential to the development• of the
life•giving property they contain.
By frequent experiment Mr. Lehman
has also ascertained that the locusts
never descend further than six feet
into the earth; which is an entire refu
tation of the fallacy that they pass en
tirely through it during the long ab
once of seventeen years. What they
live on, or bow they subsist; in their•
self constituted grave; whether they
increase and multiply, or remain to alt"
intents and purposes, dead. all tbis
time, wo believe, has never been as
certained. These singular insects aro
certainly the most wonderful of all
natural phenomena and should bo
made a special subject of study. Their
coming and going is an object-of inter
est for the curious and scientific, and
certainly teach a lesson which has
never yet been fully, and satisfactorily
explained.
