WE ARE GROWING OLD
We are growing old ! how the thought will
• rise;
When.a glance is backward cast
On some long. remembered spot that lies
In the silence of the past !
It may be the shrine of our Gaily vows,
On the tomb of our early tears ;
But it seems like a ftr•off isle to us
In the stormy sea of years.
Oli! wide and %wild are tho waves that piirt
Our stops from its greenness now,
And we miss thejoy of many a heart
Anti the light of many a brow ;
For deep o'er many a stately barque
Have the whelming billows rolled, '"
That steered with us from that early mark
0 friends! we are growing old.
Old in the dimness of the dust
Of our doily toils and earns ;'
Old in the wreekW of love and trust
Which our burdened memory bears
Ea'oh forth may wear, to the rpassing gaze,
The bloom of life's freshness yet ;
And beams may brighten our latter 'days
Which the morning never met :
But, oh the changes we have seen
In the thy and : winding way ;
The graves in our paths that have grown
green,
Ant the locks that have grown gray !
The winters still•on our way may spars •
The 'sable or the gold;
But wo see their snows upon brighter hair,
, And fOend?, we are growing !dd. •
_ . .
,
We've gained the world's cold wisdom now,
We have learned to praise and fear -,
But where are the living founts whose flow,
. Was a jne J of hearts to hear? , .
. ..
We have won the wealth of many a clime,
And the lore of tunny a pnge;
Bat where is the hope that saw in time .
But its boundless heritage?
Will it come again when thevielet wakes,
And the woods their youth-renew
We have'stood in the light of sunny brakes
Where the blOom is deep and blue.
And our souls might joy in thc,spring•time
- then i '
But the joy was faint and cold,
For it never could give us the youth again
Of hearts that ate growing
[For the Globe./
ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL,
BY TRADE
"I will learn you, you dirty scoun
drel;" thus remarked Mr. Bell as ho
withdrew a No. 10 from the extremity
of Bill Jont.‘:,' cont-tail.
Mr. B. was a good citizen, and was
highly favored by the Creator'in ma
ny respects, yet be lacked one great
object, the goVerriment of temper.
Bill Jones %Vila a young man of six
teen years—one of Nature's beautifdl.
1.19 possessed a reputable character as
well as ability unexhibited and une
qualed by any other young man in the
community.
The town in which they resided bad
a Literary Association. One of its
principal requiremedts - was the read
ing of a manuscEpt paper, weekly.—
Ed Preston was appointed editor for
the - approaching week,-and called on
many of his fel:ow members, among
whom was Bill Jones, for communica
tions. Bill was the first to comply.—
Ire;prepared the following :
"DIED.
.Sometime bet Ween the - commence•
ment of time and the' closing of last
week, a young bawling quadruped of
D. Bell's, aged about as many mouths
again as half and about the same maim
berof days, more cr less. This ani
mal came into existence and bore pros•
poets of long life as welfaS any other
animal of the same kind, but finally
came to its destination by the stoppage
of-breathing.
_Tile cows and other
do
mestics of the farm-yard are requested
to attend the hauling out which will
take place somewhere between the H.-,
sing and setting of the sun.
"Poor calfy lived and diedtigain,
Before it reached the age of ten ;
'lt kicked and bawled and. bawled its last,
-And now its living days are past."
Oi course it was, read at the next
assembling of the , Associalion. , 11.1 r.•
Bell, being present, was' terribly offen
ded, and determined to chastise the
young urchin,
as he termed Jones.—
What course to parstio'*as the query
with Bell. At last,lio .decided that
Abraham, his eldest son; should,retali
ate by replying in the' next . iieue.—
New, Abraham was a tall, robust fig
ure, face covered - with-beard, of inferi
or ability to Jones,and possessed some.
influence among the ladies, which ho
exorcised, largely in the company. 9 1
Josephin'e Dudley, whi6h ias.oftenor
than occasionally.
Josephine lived in the same town
Jones and Bull did, which was known
by the "Station."
The next evening for the meeting of
the Association- arrived. Abraham,
with paternal, considered
himself ready or the occasion. It be
ing generally understood that sport
was brewing betWeeti. Jones and Bell
the attendance was larger than usual.
„Hip communic4tiort- tvas.pootinally
egNiostid and eiptitltid .
insulting were:ait
hiired •to!' Jline`aWiis thentiotied perl-
sonally and-a great effort was made to
raise-,a lane( on the . ,:opitaph of ealty.
After,lhe • res.din... Tomartta Tier°
calla for: hinny ideaii 'having been
advanced, Jones occupisci the floor,
and poaredfoith the following effusion:
,`I-would inform-the Association ,
'Pt a itsairis at the Station, ' '
•
klonz-legged, hairy:gent,
Thid *rate a piece •Makiiificont,' •
And tried hie butte raise a laugh
Oa little -
I have no doubt he sprained his brain
To get hie thoughts m such strain;
•To have there on • the 'paper wrote
To show that be was born a shoat .
TQ Show to this Aettoeietien.
-PVRSEVE'RE.:-
That ho was troubled with irritation.
,
How strange, that such a solid U 1555
Would try to imitate an ass.
But; Abraham, I'd tell 'you here
You need the ass's lengthy,ear,
And I wouhrhave you bear in mind
You need the ass's tail behind.
Now, let toe tell you, as it friend,
Never to such things attend ;
Always try, to others dU
As you would have them do to you ;
Neier try two things* once—
Never imitate a dunce.
Then, the best advice of mine.
Is, go and sec yout..lbsephine." •
WO will let the, reader, imagine the
sensation of the Association.
Itr was after the Society adjourned
and:on the way homeward that. the
difliculty occurred whicli I mentioned
in'„the beginning of my 'narrative.
•The result was, Bells and Joneses at
enmity with each other. Week - after
week' passed, but' the Bells did not
.speak to the Joneses, neither did the
Jon6s speak to the Mils. Inconvei3i
.ence-frequently ensued: If a tea par
ty was given by any o r the elite of the
conni'ry, the company of the ono NOB
solicited as well as the other. If any
of the family of the one would attend,
, the other would learn it and remain
away. Indeed, so great was the enmi
ty towards each other, that neither
would attend nor contribute to .the
Society of the Poor,, io Which they
had, always attended regularly and
contributed liberally.' - What the one
would be co»nectbd,With the other
would oppose If one. dealt at the
store on the corder the other would,'go
to the store up to . wn, or if ono em
ployed Dr. B the pther• would call' in
Dr. Q. So extensively did enmity ex
ist between them that it became- th'e
general gossip, and numerous wore the
whya and means devised to procure
peace and frienali . ,'lceling, but all
failed.
Now, respecting the'fmancial of
and, position in the community, Bell,
Sr:, could not boast over Jones, Sr.—
Both: were wealthy aMI equally situa
ted. Even the families numbered the
same—four of each.
Itiss Emma Bell wa's about entering
her — teens. She possessed a vory•re
finekand elegant appearance for, so
yOung a nutdanfoiselle; had attended
the village school until her eleventh
year, since then at the seminary of 11.,
where .she purposed rem aining until
that. institution 'would confer the hon
or; of graduation. Iler intellectual
ability was superior to Abraham's,
consequently, more expense and great
er care were exercised in her moral
and intellectual training.
'Clara Junes was a young lady of
very amiable ability, refined Manners
and polished education. She tres an
expert in all she undertook, front the
=kiln the kitchen to ttle"kid'Y'llillie
parlor. She was accomplished. Her
suitors were numerous and report was
already current that she was engaged.
Nobody knew the appointed day.
During the oil excitement in western
Pennsylvania, Bell became so deeply
involved in stock that his presence
Was necessary ; consequently, he re.
Moved thither.
Two years later, Jones moved his
family to D— county, Wk., where
ho had invested extensively in lands
which of late years, had increased
considerably in value.
Ten years later ; I took.a trip to the
"Land or Lakes" for the purpose of
prospecting and while there called on
my old friend Jones Of course, I was
anxious to hear .of Bill and was glad
to learn that be lived in the same town .
and oil the sate street 'Jones, Sr., did.
"After' dinner Nro will go up and see'
said' Jones, Sr.',
The houp.at hand we were at Bill's
—the old, familiar name sounds the
best—and imagine my surprise when
receiving an' introduction to 11.1. rd.
Jones -- Bill's ivire—fornierly Miss Em
ma Bell.. It was with difficulty that 1
could realize it.
-"That, is not,the cream of the joke,
Traver reinarked Bill: "This even
ing we will_ero,s to the other side of
the 'lake and see Abraham."
,"Ahraham Bell r asked
.ilres," answered Bill.'
"Is he married ?" I tt;lted.
"Why, aro
,yon that far behind the
tittles?" responded Bill. "lie bats been
marded nearly (bur years, and they
have three babies."
—"Three babies ! why, who did he
marry
"Sister Clara,":heanswered.
"Is it por-sible l" Lexelaimed
with astonishment. -"
"Yes, te-morrow, when at leisure, I
will relate the circumstances, particu
larly, to you."
1 awaited anxiously OM arrival. of
the time. It . came, and Bill, accord
ing to promise, prci6ccded :
"Trace, take my telescope 'and look
down the country about-three. miles."
I looked.
"Do you see that , reddish-looking
house ?" he asked. "
I answered affirmatively. '
"That's where:Stunuel Bell resideo,"
continued He is the brother of
our_ enemy at the Station;.and owns
all the land within five miles square,
extending one mile on. this side of that
house and four miles on the other.—
That is ono mile east and four miles
west, and about two , and three-quar
ters north and one, and ono-quarter
south. That white house,yon observe
is where our "oil speculator" lives. He
fizzlod when ho was boring for the ole:
aginous matter. When we moved
hero we owned all that land of Samuel'
Boll's, in addition to what we have
now. Two years after we came here
Samuel purchased and built
immedi
ately. The third year he brought his
I family, and we have been on most in
timate terms."
"During the fourth year the white
house was built. And just five years
from the time we !lift the Station, my
father-lb-law occupied the .White, map.-

"During the greater part of the sum

her uncle's and I formed a new ac
quaintance." •
"Did she graduate at II? I asked. .
"o, yes, just ono year before her fa
ttier became : Insolvent," ho answered.
"Well it scorns strango, but how does

"Is'Abe in business?" I inquired.
"Yes, indeed, very extensively.—
Didn't you notice that largo brick

"Yes "1 replied.

and .a tract of ono hundred ,acres of

,
MARRIAGE. SHORN OF ,POETRY,--LThe
Rev. D., a Methodist minister, station
ed at Mnadville,„Pa , sOrne years ago,
one evening received a note informing
him that a couple living in the suburbs
of the city tlepireil to be unitcd . in the
bonds of matrimony, and requested his
services at nine o'clock in,the morning.
At the proper time he went to the
house,designated. , lie inquired of a
young who was busy ,wznibing
dishes if there vas a couple therm Vlid
wished. to, be, mart ied. •
"Lam the lady," said she, blushing
"Sohn will be in, in a moment." "
The minister was surprised to seo no
preparations, and so stepped to the
door to view the surroundings. Two
mean were. bard at work grinding
scythes in the yard, and another, who•
proved.to. be the "John," was tending
a cow and calf. The young lady came
to the.door pretty soon and liouted
"John, John, hurry ; the preacher's
here !"
John leaped the fence and rushed to
the house, the girl wiped her hands on
her apron, and after joining hands,
said they were ready. The minister
proceeded and had jest got through
qttestioning they - nun man when' the
old lady rushed into the room, shout
ing : .
"John, John, you didn't turn the cow

Teaching from House to House,
."Let Inc maka you acquainted" is
the American formula fur which Euro
peans substitute "Allow mo to intro
duce.", Each hits its advantages; each
is characteristic. Lttroduction
America implies.acquaintance,at least,
possible; but it does not in Europe.
We ministers need to go to the
houses of our 'people, that they may
be assured we are in earnest about
them. They do not wonder if we talk
earnestly when a 'congregation is' be
fore us. slost mon fuel the stimulus
ofa crowd. But, if they find us in
their hodsoif its much in earnest about
a family or an individual as in the pul
pit, they will begin to behove in, us
and in the religion we represent. It is
thus that the old law realizes itself
"A house-going minister makes a
churchgoing people." -
We ministers must'go to the people
in their houses, that they may know
us. What no idea a man' who works
very hard all the week has of the

An editor of a paper informed his
readers' that the ladies alWays 'pull off
the; eft stocking last, This, is may be
supposed, created some stir amoog the
fair readers, and while in positive terms
they denied the statement, -they
sisted that he had no business to know
it, even if such were the fact, and pro
nounced him no gentleman. He proves
it; however; by a short argument
•"When one stocking is pulled off there
is another left on; pulling .off this ie
